Unit Economics

Unit economics is the direct revenues and costs associated with a single unit of a business's product or service.

Example

A firm discovering that its per-project margin has been shrinking even as total revenue grows, due to rising per-project costs.

Why it matters

A business can grow revenue while unit economics quietly worsen. Understanding the per-unit picture is essential to sustainable growth.

Limits and cautions

Growing total revenue is not sufficient evidence of health on its own. Unit economics can be deteriorating even while the top line grows.
