Help screens explain in detail what they are and how to calculate your COST OF GOODS SOLD and OVERHEAD COSTS which are important steps in being able to accurately price your crafts. Two button function. Plug in your actual overhead cost or use a estimated percentage as your overhead cost.
No more guessing, no more pulling numbers out of the sky, no more wondering if you're making a profit or actually losing money from your sales because you'll KNOW your very important BREAK EVEN AMOUNT where you can NEVER sell at or below that price and expect to stay in business very long! Your selling price MUST be ABOVE your BREAK EVEN AMOUNT! That's where your PROFIT MARGIN is!
