Sales level at which operating income is zero                  
o    If sales above breakeven, then profit                  
o    If sales below breakeven, then loss                  
o    Fixed expenses = total contribution margin                  
Total sales = total expenses                  
                   
Break Even Point:  Unit Sold = Fixed expenses + Operating Income / Contribution Margin per unit                  

Break Even Point:  Sales $ = Fixed expenses + Operating Income / Contribution Margin Ratio
