Let's roll back on this a moment. If your game sells, say, 2200 units, you're not making a profit unless its some of the most bottom-of-the-barrel trash ever. It's money that's almost not worth having

Or a port of a great game maybe. I'm not sure we could classify this as trash...

6,000 units at approximately $6 each would yield $36,000.   If a single software engineer worked on this game for 6 months, it would break even at $36,000.

But we know that several people worked on the title for more than 6 months.   If they had 8 people working on the game for 9 months, they'd have to sell 75,000 units.  But they failed to even get to 6,0000 units.  Profit was a goal far, far far from the reaches of Beamdog regardless of the 6,000 unit threshhold.
