Results

Break-even price₹1,363.64 / qtl

Break-even yield26.09 qtl

Expected revenue₹1,01,200

Expected profit₹41,200

Margin of safety40.7%

Your yield could fall by about 40.7% before you start making a loss at this price.

How it's calculated

Break-even price = total cost ÷ expected yield
Break-even yield = total cost ÷ selling price
Profit / loss = yield × price − total cost
Margin of safety (%) = (expected yield − break-even yield) ÷ expected yield × 100

Worked example

Cost ₹60,000, yield 44 qtl, price ₹2,300 → break-even price ₹1,363.64/qtl, break-even yield 26.09 qtl, profit ₹41,200, margin of safety 40.7%.
