Breakeven Calculator
Calculates the profit and solves for breakeven values.
fc: Fixed costs.
vc: Variable cost per unit.
p: Unit price.
q: quantity.
Example 1
For a
- fixed cost of 3000
- variable cost per unit of 15
- price of 20
- quantity sold of 500
Calculate the profit
| Value | Keystrokes | Display | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3000 | fc | 3000.00 | Stores the fixed cost value. |
| 15 | vc | 15.00 | Stores the variable costs. |
| 20 | p | 20.00 | Stores the unit price. |
| 500 | q | 500.00 | Stores the quantity. |
| pft | -500.00 | Calculates profit. |
Example 2
Find the breakeven quantity for example 1.
Setting profit to 0 allows you to solve for the breakeven quantity. You can also solve for the other breakeven values.
These keystrokes assume the values from example 1.
| Value | Keystrokes | Display | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | pft | 0.00 | Stores the pft value. |
| q | 600 | Calculates the quantity. |
