How to use it
- Add all the costs fijos mensuales: rental of nave/oficina, gestorÃa, insurance, salarios base, software, teléfono
- Define the price of sale medium per work/project/unit (or the revenue medium per actuación)
- Determine the cost variable per work: materials directos, subcontratas, allowances, fuel, commissions
- Calculate the margin of contribución: precio_venta − coste_variable (lo that each work aporta to cover costs fijos)
- Divide the costs fijos between the margin of contribución: obtien is the número mÃnimo of trabajos to not perder money
- Multiply the número of trabajos per the price of sale to Obtain the facturación mÃnima of equilibrio
Common mistakes
- ⚠️ Not separate correctly costs fijos of variables: the fijos pay although not haya actividad
- ⚠️ Calculate with precios of sale irreales: Use the price medium current of tus budgets aceptados
- ⚠️ Forget that the punto of equilibrio rises to the increase costs fijos (hire a empleado, alquilar local más large)
- ⚠️ Not update the cálculo periódicamente: the costs of materials and subcontratas fluctúan
- ⚠️ Pensar that alcanzar the punto of equilibrio is enough: necesitas superarlo to generate profit current
