    Hello
    this might sounds a very basic question but I cannot solve this problem. I need to calculate the breakeven knowing the following:
    1. unit sales price 950 USD
    2. unit cost 760 USD
    3. fixes cost: assume 10% of total revenues earned during the sale period ( 2 weeks)
    I did 950X-760X-(0.1*950x)=0 …. but this is nonesense …. it gives me 0 … what I am doing wrong 🙁
    Thanks!

    It's no nonsense to arrive at 0 using that formula because it is a breakeven analysis, the result is supposed to be 0. You need to solve for x, which is the number of units.
