Generally, to calculate the break-even point for your business, divide your fixed costs by your gross profit margin. This gives the company the amount it needs to reach breakeven. When it comes to stocks, if a trader buys a stock with his $200, and nine months later he drops from $250 and then he hits $200 again, it's gone bankrupt.
The breakeven point is the point where total costs equal total revenues. In other words, there is no loss and no profit for SMEs. This means that we have reached a stage of production where the cost of production equals the revenue of the product.
