Keywords:
waru leaf extract, natural hand sanitizer, break even pointAbstract
Hand sanitizer contains antiseptics so that it can inhibit and kill bacteria on the hands. The alcohol content in the hand sanitizer acts as an antiseptic. Alcohol can cause dry to irritated skin if used continuously in the long term. One alternative in reducing alcohol in hand sanitizers can be done using plant extracts that contain natural antimicrobials. Waru leaf extract has been shown to have antimicrobial activity of S. Aureus, S. Epidermidis, and Eschericia coli. Meanwhile, the purpose of this study is to know a potency and analyze break event points (BEP) on waru hand sanitizers. The business analysis design is carried out to determine the feasibility of the business in terms of fixed capital, working capital, investment, fixed costs, total costs, and income. The income generated comes from waru leaves which are processed into hand sanitizers of waru leaf extract. The result of this study is that the average income on Waru leaf extract hand sanitizer products in one production is IDR 2,351,000.00 at the sales level of Waru leaf extract hand sanitizers of 43 bottles at a price of IDR 3,245.24, so business owners will break even.
