But what is this indicator? The break-even point is the point of financial equality between all of your company's revenues and expenses in the same period of time. With it, you can identify exactly what the minimum monthly revenue your business needs to have to ensure that both fixed and variable expenses are covered. In short: the moment when you, the entrepreneur, will be able to pay all of your bills and, with that, reach the much-dreamed-of point of starting to make a profit. Translated from the English term break-even point, the Break-Even Point allows the entrepreneur to assess the viability of their projects and investments, identifying precisely the moment when they will have profits or losses (with results above or below the calculated point). Before making the calculations to know how much the company needs to earn to reach the Break-Even Point, it is necessary to identify some data: Product cost: how much is paid to the supplier or how much the entrepreneur pays for raw materials, production, etc. Fixed costs: costs that the entrepreneur has regardless of revenue (employees, structure, accountant, etc.). Variable costs: costs that vary according to each sale, i.e.: payment method fees, taxes, marketing campaigns, etc. Average sales price of each product. From there, the Break-Even Point can be analyzed in one of its three main variations: the Accounting Break-Even Point, the Financial Break-Even Point and the Economic Break-Even Point. And how to calculate the BREAK-EVEN POINT? Let's calculate it together! Accounting = total value of fixed costs and expenses ÷ contribution margin index Financial = fixed costs and expenses – (non-disbursable expenses ÷ contribution margin) Economic = total value of fixed costs and expenses + (opportunity cost ÷ contribution margin) Balancing expenses and revenues, using knowledge for constant improvement, is essential for the company's survival. Therefore, the Break-Even Point, more than a diagnosis of the financial health of your business, is a guide for sales goals, for expanding or reducing production capacity, among other items.
