Finance — revenue, costs, profit, break-even analysis

BTEC: Business: Finance — revenue, costs, profit, break-even analysis

What you'll learn

  1. 1

    Imagine you run a lemonade stand 🍋. You sell cups for £1 each. That £1 is your REVENUE — the money coming in.

  2. 2

    If you sell 15 cups of lemonade at £1 each, what is your revenue? 🍋

  3. 3

    But making lemonade costs money — lemons 🍋, sugar 🧂, cups 🥤. Those are your COSTS.

  4. 4

    Drag the costs to your lemonade stand — each cup costs 40p to make. Sell 10 cups and see total costs.

  5. 5

    Revenue = £15. Costs = 10 cups × 40p = £4. What is profit?

  6. 6

    If revenue is £20 and costs are £8, what is the profit? 💷

  7. 7

    BREAK-EVEN is when revenue equals costs — you've made exactly £0 profit. It's the point where you stop losing money and start making profit.

  8. 8

    Your costs are £4 (10 cups × 40p). How many cups at £1 each do you need to sell to break even? Tap the right number.
