How to use this tool

  1. Enter product cost and all per-unit fees.
  2. Set target profit margin if you want a recommended price above break-even.
  3. Use break-even price as your floor — never price below it long term.

Formula

Break-Even Price = Total Cost per Unit ÷ (1 − Referral Fee % − Target Margin %)

Example

If total landed cost plus FBA fees is $18/unit, break-even might land near $24–$28 depending on category referral rate.

Common mistakes

  • Using break-even as final price without competitive research
  • Omitting storage or returns fees
  • Ignoring coupons and promotions

Estimates use Amazon's published fee structure. See our fee accuracy report for verification details and limitations.

Frequently asked questions

What is a break-even price?

Break-even price is the minimum selling price at which your product neither makes a profit nor incurs a loss. It covers all costs including Amazon fees, product cost, and other expenses.

How do I use the break-even calculator?

Enter your product cost, expected fees, and other costs. The calculator will show you the minimum price needed to break even and a recommended price with your target profit margin.
