Best price for software?

[Krik]

As we can't change the price per unit after rollout it's very important to set the right price during development.

But how do I know how high I can go before loosing too many potential costumers?
How do I know how many copies I have to sell before reaching the break even point (dev costs vs sales)?
What is the right (not too high, not too low) price to beat a competing 'great' product with my 'good'/''mediocre'/etc product?

I know it pretty easy to earn millions but IMO the game lacks these important figures. Or are they somewhere and I didn't find them?

I always use the default option and it turns out very profitable

Pretty much what Qoff said, you add the features you want then price on where it says "Price" to generate what recommended pricing. I personally like to raise it or lower it to get a nicer looking price, but that doesn't matter in the game itself.
Say the computer recommends I sell a game for 78.34, I'll raise the price to 79.99. Or if it suggests 74.48 I'll lower it to 73.99

The reason I ask is the following:

In my game there're 5 different OS on the market that have a combined user base of 2.8 million. According to the software dev start window there are about 130 million potential customers.

I asked myself why is the active user base so little? Afaik there are only two important factors: price and marketing.
All the OS have max. marketing so only the price factor is left. The prices are in the range of 200-300 bucks.

So what if I develop an OS and sell it for 50 bucks? Would I get a much, MUCH bigger user base? Will this also come happen if my OS' quality is mediocre?
