Frequently asked questions
What happens if my variable cost is higher than my price?+
The business can never break even at that price point — every unit sold loses money regardless of volume. This signals a pricing or cost structure problem that needs fixing before scaling sales.
Does lowering fixed costs or raising prices help more?+
Both lower the break-even point, but their leverage differs — a price increase improves the contribution margin on every unit sold (compounding with volume), while a fixed cost cut is a one-time reduction in the numerator. Model both to see which moves your specific break-even point further.
Should I include my own salary in fixed costs?+
If you draw a fixed salary from the business, yes — include it as a fixed cost so your break-even reflects the true cost of running the business, not just its out-of-pocket cash costs.
