Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to calculate the break-even point (BEP) for a business. The correct formula involves dividing fixed costs by the contribution margin ratio. The contribution margin is determined by subtracting variable costs from sales revenue. Participants also requested an Excel template for BEP calculations.

 Your break-even point is the point at which total revenue equals total costs or expenses. At this point there is no profit or loss - in other words, you 'break even'.

Thank you so much for your kind assistance
Yes

BEP = Fixed cost / PV Ratio

PV Ratio = Contribution / Sales

Contribution = Sales - Variable Cost
