Question

I will cost me $889 to rent a hall , $13 per person for all education material, $14 per person registration fee so for me to break even  how many people can attend my event

Answer 1

Number of person to attend event= x

 

Cost of education material = 13 x

 

Total cost = Rent + cost of education material=889+13x

 

Total earning =Total registration fees= 14x

 

For break even

 

Total earning =  total cost

 

14x = 889+13x

 

x = 889

   

Number of person to attend event for break even= x=889

Answer 2

You only make $1 per person ($14 - $13).

Therefore to break even you need to enroll 889 people.
