How to use the Break-Even Point Calculator for Shops

Many small shops run for months without knowing the one number that matters: how much must I sell just to cover costs? This break even point calculator for small shops in Pakistan takes your monthly fixed costs (rent, salaries, utilities), your average selling price, and per-unit cost — then tells you exactly how many units and how many rupees of sales you need monthly before a single rupee of profit appears.

  1. Add up monthly fixed costs — shop rent, staff salaries, electricity, and other bills — in the first field.
  2. Enter your average selling price per unit and the per-unit purchase (variable) cost.
  3. Click Calculate to see the break-even units and break-even sales in rupees per month.
  4. Divide break-even units by 30 to get your daily survival target and pin it at the counter.

Formula

Contribution per unit = Selling price − Variable cost. Break-even units = Fixed costs ÷ Contribution per unit. Break-even sales (Rs) = Break-even units × Selling price.

Worked example

Fixed costs Rs 80,000/month, average price Rs 500, unit cost Rs 350: contribution = Rs 150. Break-even = 80,000 ÷ 150 = 534 units/month, i.e. Rs 267,000 in sales. Selling 600 units leaves 66 × 150 = Rs 9,900 monthly profit.

Frequently asked questions

Rent, salaries, electricity/gas bills, internet, and loan installments — costs you pay even with zero sales. Stock purchases are variable costs, not fixed.

Use a weighted average: total monthly sales ÷ total units sold. For mixed shops this approximation is standard and good enough for planning.

Three levers: cut fixed costs (renegotiate rent), raise prices, or reduce per-unit purchase cost (better suppliers, bulk buying). Even small moves compound.
