The monthly break-even point is shown in the Break-Even Analysis Table below. The break-even
analysis has been calculated on the "burn rate" of The Company. [Company Name] feels that this
gives the investor a more accurate picture of the actual risk of the venture. The Break-Even
Analysis Table is based on the Company's forecasted monthly expenses, cost of sales, and gross
margins. It forecasts the average revenue (sales) level that must be achieved each month for the
Company to break-even (show neither a profit nor a loss).
Even though Management's desire is to reach the break-even level every month and as early in the
month as possible, it is unrealistic to believe that the break-even point will be achieved in every
month of the Company's existence. Management realizes that there are several factors that may
cause monthly losses. The most common factors include:
Management will closely follow the Financial Statement Review section of the Financial Plan
contained within this Business Plan by reviewing the Company's financial statements on a monthly
basis. This is done to make certain that months without profit are the result of one of the factors
listed above as opposed to a growing negative trend. Management will take immediate action to
reverse the trend by reducing expenses, increasing profit margins, or increasing sales should it
determine that sustained months without profit are the result of factors other than those listed
above.
