Financial SummaryAnalysis of calculations
Breakeven analysis: A company has broken even when its total sales or revenues equal its total expenses. The breakeven point is the lower limit of profit when determining margins.
Breakeven Point = Fixed Costs/(Unit Selling Price - Variable Costs)
Contribution margin analysis: Above the breakeven point, every additional unit sold increases profit by the amount of the unit contribution margin, which can be used as a measure of operating leverage.
Unit Contribution Margin = Sales Price - Variable Costs
