Scenarios assume each change happens on its own terms — e.g. a price increase doesn’t automatically reduce volume. Use the volume slider to model customer reaction.

How we calculate
Plain, deterministic formulas — no AI, no estimates.

Revenue = price × units (or entered directly; then units = revenue ÷ price)

COGS = COGS per unit × units · Gross profit = revenue − COGS

Operating profit = gross profit − variable expenses − fixed expenses

Contribution margin ratio = (revenue − COGS − variable expenses) ÷ revenue

Break-even revenue = fixed expenses ÷ contribution margin ratio
