Category context

How business measures fit together

Business tools separate revenue, cost, margin, markup, cash, time, and return so a planning decision can be checked one layer at a time.

Method and background

Management accounting and operating analysis use ratios and thresholds to make business performance easier to compare. The right denominator and period are part of the answer, not a hidden detail.

Pricing and margins

Cost of goods, markup, contribution margin, profit, and pricing decisions.

Whole-Unit Break-Even Point

Calculate the whole units needed to cover fixed costs and the matching revenue, alongside the theoretical fractional-unit threshold and contribution per unit.

You enter: Fixed costs for the period · Variable cost per unit · Selling price per unit

Example: Break-even: 1500 whole units; matching revenue: 27000.00; contribution per unit: 8.00.

Target Margin or Markup Pricing

Set a selling price using either a profit-margin target or a markup-on-cost target, and see both percentages so their different denominators are never confused.

You enter: Cost per unit · Target definition · Target percentage

Example: Selling price: 20.00; profit per unit: 8.00; profit margin: 40.00%; markup: 66.67%.

Open Target Margin or Markup Pricing →

Single or Sequential Discounts

Calculate the sale price, total savings, and effective percentage reduction for one discount or two discounts applied sequentially rather than added together.

You enter: Original price · First discount · Additional sequential discount

Break-Even Units Calculator

Find the unit sales and revenue needed to cover fixed costs when price and variable cost are known.

You enter: Fixed costs · Price per unit · Variable cost per unit

Example: Contribution margin = 20; break-even = 500 units; break-even revenue = 25,000 currency units.

3D Printer Buy-or-Outsource Calculator

Compare a fixed printer purchase plus in-house unit cost with a per-unit outsourcing price and find a simple break-even quantity.

You enter: Printer purchase cost · One-time setup cost · In-house cost per unit · Outsourced cost per unit · Planned quantity

Example: In-house total = 1,800; outsource total = 2,500; savings = 700; break-even ≈ 66.667 units.

Marginal Cost Calculator

Calculate the average marginal cost over an output interval from two total-cost observations and two production quantities.

You enter: Total cost before · Total cost after · Output before · Output after

Example: Cost increases by 3,000 over 100 additional units, so interval marginal cost is 30 currency units per unit.

Open Marginal Cost Calculator →

Marginal Revenue Calculator

Calculate the average marginal revenue over a quantity interval from two total-revenue observations.

You enter: Total revenue before · Total revenue after · Quantity before · Quantity after

Example: Revenue increases by 4,500 over 100 additional units, so interval marginal revenue is 45 currency units per unit.

Open Marginal Revenue Calculator →

Total Revenue Test

Compares total revenue before and after a price change.

You enter: Price before · Quantity before · Price after · Quantity after

Example: TR 1000 → 960; change −40 (−4%).

Open Total Revenue Test →

Price Ceiling Shortage Sketch

Checks whether an entered price ceiling binds and reports the quantity gap at the supplied demand and supply values.

You enter: Equilibrium price · Price ceiling · Quantity demanded at ceiling · Quantity supplied at ceiling

Example: Binding ceiling; shortage of 40 units.

CV Screening and Interview Time Calculator

Estimate recruiting workload from applicant count, review time, shortlist rate, interview rounds, and available workday hours.

You enter: Applicants · Minutes per CV/resume review · Shortlisted percentage · Interviews per shortlisted candidate · Minutes per interview · Available workday

Example: Screening takes 8 hours; 12 candidates are shortlisted; interviews add 18 hours; total workload is 26 hours, or about 3.47 available workdays.

Hire an Expert vs Train a Fresher Calculator

Compare entered hiring, compensation, training, ramp-up, and planning-horizon assumptions for an experienced hire versus a new starter.

You enter: Experienced hire annual compensation · New starter annual compensation · Experienced hire one-time cost · New starter one-time cost · Training cost · New starter ramp-up period · Average productivity during ramp · Planning horizon

Example: Experienced direct cost = 150000; new-starter direct cost = 95000; new-starter productive-month equivalent = 21 months.

Overtime Pay

Weekly paycheck split into regular and overtime pay at an adjustable threshold and multiplier.

You enter: Hours worked · Hourly rate · Overtime threshold · Overtime multiplier

Example: Regular pay 800.00; overtime pay 150.00; total pay 950.00.

Frequently asked questions

How do I compare profitability across projects?

Use total-period ROI for overall return, break-even for sales thresholds, and margin analysis for pricing. Each answers a different question.

What is the difference between margin and markup?

Margin divides profit by selling price; markup divides profit by cost. A 40% margin is not the same price as a 40% markup.
