You need to analyze two things:
1. Your costs — all costs per unit (direct/variable costs plus an allocated share of fixed/overhead, plus taxes, fees and any distribution/transaction costs). This gives your break‑even floor.
2. The market — what customers are willing to pay and what competitors charge (price elasticity, perceived value). This tells you whether you can realistically sell at or above your cost floor.
Quick use: compute unit cost to get the minimum break‑even price; then compare that to market/competitive prices and adjust costs, features, or target margin so the price is viable.
