What Is Target Profit Analysis?

Target profit analysis estimates the sales volume required to cover fixed costs and achieve a specified profit level. Businesses can use it when setting sales targets and evaluating pricing assumptions.

How to Calculate Required Units

Required Units = (Fixed Costs + Desired Profit) ÷ Contribution Margin Per Unit

The calculator rounds required units up to the next whole unit so the target can be reached under the stated assumptions.
