PREPARING THE PAPER
Break-Even Analysis Case Study
You and several of your colleagues business partners have decided to establish an outpatient
fertility clinic in your service area. All of you are very familiar with this patient population base, have
completed an extensive market analysis that demonstrated a great need for the service, and are
comfortable with setting up a business and the costs associated with this special group of patients.
The outpatient fertility clinic will have a fixed cost of $9,788,000 —start-up costs, hiring of specialty
physicians, anesthesiologists, advanced practice nurses and staff nurses, salaries, purchase of
high-technology fertility equipment, and other miscellaneous items.
The fertility clinic will be open Monday through Saturday; 312 days per year.
The fertility outpatient clinic has variable costs of $500 per patient visit —fertility medical equipment,
oxygen supplies, and other miscellaneous items.
Each patient will be charged the following per visit based on patient acuity categories:
Revised 12.10.15 RD 1
, 1. Simple 15% = $2,000
2. Moderate 60% = $6,500
3. Complex 25% = $10,000
The projected patient visits per year are anticipated to be 7,488 visits. How many patients would the
clinic have to provide services for to break even, and at what point would this occur?
What is your interpretation of the break-even analysis? Is this project a viable and profitable
service? Does the break-even analysis support moving forward with this business? Why, or why
not?
