breakeven
Significado: The point at which revenue equals costs, resulting in neither profit nor loss; the level of sales or output needed to cover all expenses.
The breakeven point is a critical metric for any business — below it, the company makes a loss; above it, it makes a profit. A 'breakeven analysis' calculates how many units need to be sold or what revenue is required to cover fixed and variable costs. Also written as 'break-even' or 'break even.'
