Formulas used
  • Labor = hours × hourly rate
  • Direct cost = product + labor + permits, disposal and other
  • Commission = sale × commission % ; overhead = sale × overhead %
  • Net profit = sale − direct cost − commission − overhead
  • Break-even price = direct cost ÷ (1 − (commission % + overhead %) ÷ 100)
  • Minimum price at target = direct cost ÷ (1 − (commission % + overhead % + target %) ÷ 100)

Every result is an estimate from the numbers you enter. Nothing is pre-filled with our figures, nothing leaves your browser, and your last inputs are saved on this device only. Not engineering, legal, tax or lending advice.

FAQ

Questions about this tool.

Why does break-even depend on commission and overhead?

Both are a share of the sale, so they grow as the price grows. The break-even price is where the sale covers direct costs plus those shares.

Should overhead be a percent?

Use the share of sales your overhead runs at in your own books. If you do not know it, talk to your accountant.
