How this estimate works
Current CAC = acquisition-related spend Ă· new customers acquired in the same period.
12-month revenue per customer = average revenue per purchase Ă— average purchases in 12 months.
12-month gross contribution = 12-month customer revenue Ă— gross margin.
Illustrative allowable CAC = 12-month gross contribution Ă— selected acquisition percentage.
Break-even CAC ceiling = 12-month gross contribution. At that acquisition cost, no modeled gross contribution remains for overhead, taxes, profit, timing, risk, or other costs.
Estimated CAC payback = current CAC Ă· average monthly gross contribution. This assumes revenue and contribution occur evenly across 12 months.
Customers supported = acquisition-related spend Ă· illustrative allowable CAC, rounded down.
