3.Break-even analysis

The break-even point is where you make enough money in revenue to pay your expenses but you do not make money nor you do not lose money. In this section, you need to determine what this break-even point is.

Notes: Before addressing this section please review:

-Page 314 in the textbook about break-even analysis

-The BrkEvn (Break-Even) worksheet in your Excel document. You would have calculated this there.

Final notes:
