Concept Introduction:
Break-even point is a point at which the total sales equal the total costs. In the same manner, break-even sales mean that the volume of sales, equates to the cost of the company. We can say that the sale done just to recover the costs incurred by the company is the break-even sales. Moreover, the contribution margin is the excess of revenue over the variable cost of the product.
