Break-Even Analysis Spreadsheet Template for Excel & Google Sheets
Find the unit volume and revenue at which each product covers all its costs. Built around the contribution-margin model: CM per unit = price minus variable cost, break-even units = fixed cost divided by CM per unit. Per-product and blended figures, expected profit at your expected volumes, margin of safety, and a sensitivity table that flexes price, variable cost, and fixed cost by plus or minus 20%. One spreadsheet, dual compatible with Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets.

Break-Even Analysis Spreadsheet
Everything in This Break-Even Spreadsheet
Break-Even at a Glance
Open the Dashboard and see four headline numbers - blended contribution margin %, break-even revenue, expected profit, and margin of safety. A column chart compares break-even units against expected volume for every product so the gap is obvious.
- 4 headline KPIs covering CM, BE revenue, profit, and MoS
- BE units vs expected volume column chart
- Pacing alert banner explains the mix
One Row Per Product
Enter price, variable cost, expected volume, and allocated fixed cost for each product. Add or remove rows freely - the Break-Even sheet, Sensitivity table, and Dashboard chart roll up from these inputs. Total fixed cost is summed at the bottom.
- Price, variable cost, expected volume, allocated fixed cost
- Add or remove product rows freely
- Total fixed cost auto-sums to the Break-Even sheet
Per-Product Break-Even Math
The core sheet. For each product see contribution margin per unit, CM %, break-even units, break-even revenue, expected profit at your volume, and margin of safety. A composite row at the bottom shows the blended figures weighted by expected revenue mix.
- CM per unit, CM %, BE units, BE revenue per product
- Expected profit and margin of safety per product
- Composite row weighted by expected revenue mix
Stress-Test the Inputs
Flex price, variable cost, and fixed cost by minus 20%, minus 10%, plus 10%, and plus 20% on the lead product. The table shows BE units at each scenario, and a tornado chart ranks which lever moves break-even most in absolute terms.
- Plus/minus 10% and 20% scenarios on price, variable, fixed
- BE units recalculated at every scenario
- Tornado chart ranks lever impact
One Blended Break-Even
When you sell more than one product, individual break-evens are not enough. The composite line uses the blended contribution-margin %, weighted by expected revenue mix, to give a single break-even revenue figure for the whole portfolio.
- Blended CM % across the portfolio
- Single composite break-even revenue
- Margin of safety on the whole mix
Are You Above Break-Even?
Expected profit at your expected volumes tells you the answer in one number. The pacing banner on the Dashboard turns green when expected mix profits clear break-even, and amber if they do not - so the headline status is clear at a glance.
- Expected profit at expected volume per product
- Pacing banner flags green or amber
- Margin of safety expressed as %
