About Music School Break-Even

A typical music school has ~$5,000/month in fixed costs (rent, insurance, salaries) and variable costs of ~40% of revenue. At $70 per lesson, the contribution margin is $42 — so you need to sell 120 lessons/month just to cover costs. Every unit beyond that is pure profit.
