Tour cost: a break-even figure is not a profit promise

The guide enters fixed cost, per-person cost, seats and margin. iTakvimim calculates a per-person break-even. That number does not claim to save a company from loss.

By ITakvimim•

Tour cost gets rounded on paper to “so much per person”. The coach, the guide, the museum and lunch collapse into one line. The box in the iTakvimim wizard separates them: fixed cost, per-person variable cost, seats and the margin you want.

Four numbers, four different things

Fixed cost is split across the group, like a coach. Variable cost is written per person, like a meal or a ticket. Seats are the capacity you divide by. Margin is the rate you set. The product does not impose a “healthy” margin.

Break-even is a per-person amount

The math divides fixed cost by seats and adds variable cost. With a margin, the suggested figure rounds up from there. It also says, roughly, how many filled seats that margin needs. It is not a set of accounts.

An estimate is not a rescue story

The tool assumes the seats are filled. It ignores discounts and cancellations. The number does not claim the tour turned profitable. You set the price. The box only answers “where is the per-person floor for these costs”.

Frequently asked

Does the calculation invoice the guest?

No. The result is an estimate on the guide’s screen. There is no charge, contract or tax record.

Do empty seats raise profit?

No. The tool assumes the seats you entered are filled. Unsold seats stay your commercial risk.
