WaltF4's post is great but a little outdated since upkeep was adjusted in 0.231. It used to be 5% repair cost and 4% break chance, but this was changed.
Repair costs are 7% of the item cost, and chance of breaking is 3% for most items. This means that every minute you will pay an average of 0.07*0.03*equipment cost=0.0021*equipment cost. If you're looking for the break-even point you need to equate that with your average earnings per minute which will be 50 gold * average multiplier. So,
Break-even equipment cost = 50 gold * average multipler / 0.0021
If you're an absolutely average player with a 50% chance to win each round and never get valour, your average multiplier converges on 1.9375 in the long run. Therefore, your break-even equipment cost is roughly 46131 gold.
