Find the monthly break-even point

Enter monthly operating overhead, any debt payments or owner draw you want this scenario to cover, plus average completed-job revenue and direct job cost. The calculator uses contribution per job rather than revenue alone.

Run more than one scenario

Seasonality and job mix change results. Compare conservative, normal, and busy-month scenarios, then use completed-job records to refine the average job assumptions.

Limitations

Results are estimates based only on the figures entered. They do not set a market price, guarantee profit, or replace accounting, tax, or professional advice.
