Course / Session Economics
Per-session P&L for training / RTO / safety courses — fill, cancel/no-show, trainer & venue → margin and break-even fill %.

Session revenue, contribution, and break-even
Paid learners after cancel/no-show → contribution margin and break-even fill %.
Equations
- Paid learners = Capacity × Fill% × (1 − Cancel%)
- Revenue = Paid × Price · Costs = Trainer + Venue + Materials × Paid
- Contribution = Revenue − Costs · Margin = Contribution ÷ Revenue
- Break-even fill % from fixed costs vs contribution per filled seat
How this is calculated
- Paid learners = Capacity × Fill% × (1 − Cancel%)
- Revenue = Paid × Price
- Costs = Trainer + Travel/Venue + (Materials × Paid)
- Contribution = Revenue − Costs
- Margin = Contribution ÷ Revenue
- Break-even fill % from fixed costs (trainer + venue) vs contribution per filled seat after cancel and materials
- Cost / learner = Costs ÷ Paid (when Paid > 0)

Sensitivity dials
Fill pts · Cancel pts — live contribution and break-even.
What-if dials
Each dial stacks on your base inputs.
Adds percentage points to fill (0–100%).
Adds percentage points to cancel/no-show (0–100%). Negative = fewer cancellations.
