Pricing For E-book And Create Space

I'm having trouble finding where you can figure the break-even point of your book on Create Space so you know how to price it accordingly. I have read articles that suggest setting a price of about 4.99 for the E-book versions on Nook and Kindle, but the hard copy paperback has to cost more. I was told there is a calculator somewhere on the CS site that can tell you this, but I can't find it. CS really needs to make their site a little more user friendly for idiots like me to use. Any suggestions?

Once you upload your book and cover, you will see a screen that tells you the minimum price. If you choose expanded distribution, the minimum price will be lower.
