The owner of
Brooklyn
Restaurant is disappointed because the restaurant has been averaging
5,000
pizza sales permonth, but the restaurant and wait staff can make and serve
8,000
pizzas per month. The variable cost (for example,ingredients) of each pizza is
$1.35.
Monthly fixed costs (for example, depreciation, property taxes, business license, and manager's salary) are
$8,000
per month. The owner wants cost information about different volumes so that some operating decisions can be made.

2. |
From a cost standpoint, why do companies such as
Brooklyn Restaurant want to operate near or at full capacity? |
|
3. |
The owner has been considering ways to increase the sales
volume. The owner thinks that
8,000 pizzas could be sold per month by cutting the selling price per pizza from$6.25 a pizza to$5.75. How much extra profit (above the current level) would be generated if the selling price were to be decreased? (Hint: Find the restaurant's current monthly profit and compare it to the restaurant's projected monthly profit at the new sales price and volume.) |
Requirement 1. Use the chart below to provide the owner with the cost information. Then use the completed chart to help you answer the remaining questions. (Enter total variable costs to the nearest dollar. Enter costs per pizza, price per pizza, and profit per pizza to the nearest cent.)

HomeSuites is a chain of all-suite, extended-stay hotel properties. The chain has 15 properties with an average of 200 rooms in each property. In year 1, the occupancy rate (the number of rooms filled divided by the number of rooms available) was 70 percent, based on a 365-day year. The average room rate was $180 for a night. The basic unit of operation is the “night,” which is one room occupied for one night.
The operating income for year 1 is as follows.

In year 1, the average fixed labor cost was $400,000 per property. The remaining labor cost was variable with respect to the number of nights. Food and beverage cost and miscellaneous cost are all variable with respect to the number of nights. Utilities and depreciation are fixed for each property. The remaining costs (management, marketing, and other costs) are fixed for the firm.
At the beginning of year 2, HomeSuites will open three new properties with no change in the average number of rooms per property. The occupancy rate is expected to remain at 70 percent. Management has made the following additional assumptions for year 2.

First, BICA is considering the purchase of the Empty Arms hotel. Next year's NOI and cash flow is expected to be $2,000,000 and BIC's economic forecast of market supply and demand and vacancy levels indicated they will continue to be in balance. As a result NOI should increase by 1.5 percent each year based upon expected capital improvements, and BIC believes they should earn 9% total return on the investment.
What is the estimated value of the property?
What cap rate should be found from recently sold properties that are comparable to Empty Arms? NOTE how the cap rate reflects the growth in NOI.
Should they purchase this investment if the negotiated asking price is $27M?

Round Tree Manor is a hotel that provides two types of rooms with three rental classes: Super Saver, Deluxe, and Business. The profit per night for each type of room and rental class is as follows:
| Rental Class | ||||
Room |
Super Saver | Deluxe | Business | |
| Type I | $36 | $38 | — | |
| Type II | $15 | $26 | $38 | |
Type I rooms do not have wireless Internet access and are not available for the Business rental class.
Round Tree's management makes a forecast of the demand by rental class for each night in the future. A linear programming model developed to maximize profit is used to determine how many reservations to accept for each rental class. The demand forecast for a particular night is 140 rentals in the Super Saver class, 60 rentals in the Deluxe class, and 40 rentals in the Business class. Round Tree has 125 Type I rooms and 135 Type II rooms.
| Variable | # of reservations |
|---|---|
| SuperSaver rentals allocated to room type I | |
| SuperSaver rentals allocated to room type II | |
| Deluxe rentals allocated to room type I | |
| Deluxe rentals allocated to room type II | |
| Business rentals allocated to room type II |
