Create a break-even analysis chart for a product with $20,000 fixed costs, $15 variable cost per unit, and $35 selling price

Here's your break-even analysis chart. With $20,000 fixed costs, $15 variable cost per unit, and a $35 selling price, the break-even point is at 1,000 units — the exact point where total revenue equals total costs.

How to chart a break-even model

No template to fill in and no drawing. You talk; the canvas keeps up.

e.g. Fixed costs $20K, variable cost $15/unit, selling price $35

01

Provide consistent inputs

State fixed costs for a defined period, variable cost per unit, selling price, and currency.

02

Plot the simple model

Ask for revenue and total-cost lines across a useful range of sales volume.

Check the intersection

Verify the formula and input assumptions, then review how a stated price or cost change alters the threshold.

Break-even analysis chart

A simple break-even chart compares revenue with total costs at different sales volumes. With constant unit price and variable cost, break-even units equal fixed costs divided by price minus variable cost per unit. This threshold is a model result, not a prediction of demand or a guarantee of cash availability.

When it helps

Use it to explain a single-product cost-volume relationship or compare explicitly defined scenarios. More complex cases, including changing prices, step costs, and multiple products, need assumptions that the basic two-line chart does not capture.

What to check

  1. Use one planning period. Fixed costs and sales volume must refer to the same interval.
  2. Check contribution per unit. Price minus variable cost must be positive for a finite positive break-even with positive fixed costs.
  3. Keep units visible. Sales volume and currency are different quantities.
  4. Round operational thresholds appropriately. Whole-unit products require enough units to cover the calculated threshold.
  5. State model limits. Constant price, cost, and sales-mix assumptions may not hold across every volume.

Build it with MyMap

MyMap can visualize supplied assumptions as revenue and cost lines. The example uses fixed costs of $20,000, variable cost of $15, and price of $35, giving a 1,000-unit intersection at $35,000. Check your inputs and arithmetic before using a chart in a planning decision.

Common questions

Does break-even mean cash flow is positive?

Not necessarily. The simple model compares revenue and costs; payment timing and other cash movements require a cash-flow analysis.

What if variable cost is equal to the selling price?

There is no contribution toward positive fixed costs, so additional units cannot cover them in this model.

Can I combine several products?

Only with explicit assumptions about their sales mix and contribution margins. Do not apply one product's unit cost to the whole portfolio.
