Funny I learned this in school a few weeks ago. It was actually her and the king who approved his voyage. They first said no. Columbus asked again soon later. They said yes because they lost a lot of money (I forgot how) and thought he and other voyagers with him would find a lot of gold in their travels.
The break even point refers to the point wherebye the voyage freight rate equates to the cost of running the ship!

I think it was King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella.
King Ferdinand of Spain agreed to finance Columbus. In return for financing the voyage's of Columbus, the King wanted all of the gold, spices, and riches that he might find.
Isabella and Ferdinand were the queen and king of Spain. They financed Christopher Columbus' voyage to America after his own government would not.
