First , the goods as 65% of sales is a bogus assumption ( could easily be that goods exceed sales in the early days and when successful , are less than 25 % soooooo Bogus Assumption / No valid economic basis for this number ) At some point during operation however , 65% may be legit when doing a current analysis . . . So , at the point in business when product is running 65 % of sales . . . How much to break even ? If product is 65% , then the other costs are 35% Add up the other costs . . . ( $3350 ) Break even means 35 % of sales = $3350 Product costs + operating costs = break even .35 ( sales ) = 3350 sales = 3350 / .35 Sales would have to be about $9571 to break even . Revenue necessary for profit ? Add the $2K to the break even amount . >
