The math, shown

ROASrevenue ÷ ad spendReturn on ad spend as a multiple. 4x means $4 back per $1 spent.
Break-even ROAS1 ÷ contribution marginContribution margin = 1 − (COGS + shipping + fees). A 60% margin means 1 ÷ 0.60 = 1.67x just to cover the product.
Full break-even1 ÷ (contribution − overhead)The ROAS where ads cover product costs and their share of running the business.
Target ROAS1 ÷ (contribution − overhead − target margin)The number to hand your media buyer. Above it, every scaled dollar compounds profit.
