I have been in business for almost 13 years and have been successfull for the most part but lately with the mild winter we just had it just seems like a big game of catch up and i can't seem to make much headway in the $ dept.. I have asked my accountant for some help with this but he doesnt seem to have time to help me get the # I need, or they talk in terms that i do not under stand. What i need is a simple as possible explanation of how to find my brake even # to just make sure i am going in the right direction every month I am sick of playing catch up and it makes for some not very fun days. I am using quick books for my accounting and also using ro wrighter for my shop management. Oh by the way i dont want to just break even every month I just want to make sure my goal for every month is the right #.

When I look at owners break even you take your expenses for everything that you pay out and add 20% and that would be your break even. For example, I took 4 mouths of statements and subordinate by 4 and then added 20% and that is my minimum monthly goal.
