You operate a group of hotels which have seen an increase in the amount of reservations. You currently have a staff of 10 people working in the reservations area. You would like to concentrate on providing the guests with an exceptional stay at the hotels, but the cost of a computerized reservation system would reduce the amount of staff which could service the guests. You have to make some decisions on which decision will be best for the business.

What relevant and irrelevant information do you need to make this decision?

What non-financial information is relevant to make this decision?

Explain how your decision will have an affect on your pricing for the hotel?

Movement restrictions imposed by various governments to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 pandemic in the form of social distancing and closure of national and international borders and airports has brought a number of business organisations to a standstill, leading to the decline in growth and market share, especially the hard hit tourism and hospitality industries. Assume that you are the manager of IDISAM Hotel LTD, which holds the largest market share in the hospitality industry, but now on the verge of collapsing due to COVID-19 pandemic. Required: Supporting your answers with specific examples and justifications, propose corporate or grand strategies that the company can use to deal with the situation at hand.

Your local hotel has a dining room which has the capacity to seat 140 guests. It is opened for breakfast and lunch seven days a week and fully expects to be at capacity at these times. During January 2021, management has forecast the seat turnover for breakfast will be 3 times and for lunch 2 times, with the average bill to be $28 for breakfast and $58 for lunch. Beverage revenue is usually 12 per cent of the breakfast revenue and 28 per cent of the lunch revenue.  

Calculate budgeted total revenue of food and beverage for the 31 days of January 2021. Express the answer as a daily food and beverage outcome and also a monthly figure.

While investigating a group of defective solar arrays, taken from the Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park in Dubai, you notice three main classifications of defects. 27% of defects are related to a cell’s semiconductor material bandgap, 51% are related to impact damage, and 22% are age-related in nature. Over the study period, 3 instances of material bandgap defects and 5 occurrences of age-related defects are recorded. What is the most probable number of recorded defects related to impact damage?

Note: This problem is related to discrete probability distribution ( I think multinomial distribution should be used)

Betsy Birdsong, an interior designer, has made plans to definitely retire in three years. She has begun to downsize her business and is moving out of the 2,000 square foot commercial condominium she owns in a prestigious business park. Betsy does not wish to sell at this time, so she has decided to offer the condominium as a lease-purchase option. While she hasn't decided on a purchase price, she is adamant about the lease term:   a three-year lease with a two-year option (for the first two years only).  

What is your opinion as to why she would require such a lease term?
