Description

Five sessions on the arithmetic behind every business decision — with numbers that resolve cleanly, so the time goes on the ideas.

Is the bakery actually making money? What should a hammer cost once you know what it cost to buy? How many pizza kits does the new product have to sell before it stops losing money?

Your student works fixed and variable costs, profit margin, markup and break-even, then builds a month-end income statement for a real small business and says what it means.

Break-even is the single most transferable calculation in the business lines — it applies to anything your student ever sells.
