Case 2 (Special Order)

While Jurassic World is filled to capacity with tourists most of the year, the theme park experiences a lower number of customers during September and October. This is due to the fact that September and October are “rainy season” in Jurassic World’s location—the island of Isla Nublar, off the coast of Costa Rica.

To celebrate their sponsorship of the Pepsisaurus and the Tostidodon, PepsiCo is interested in holding a 3-day, 2-night corporate retreat for 5,000 of its employees at Jurassic world during September. PepsiCo has told Claire that they would pay Jurassic World $200 per employee. This would provide each employee with three days of park admission, three days of meal and drink vouchers, and two nights of lodging. Additionally, PepsiCo wants Jurassic World to treat its employees to behind-the-scenes tours of the park, which would cost a total of $50,000 to plan and facilitate. Due to the timing of the retreat, Jurassic World has ample capacity to host PepsiCo’s employees.

Claire knows that Jurassic World normally charges $850 per person for a 3-day, 2-night admission, lodging, and meal/drink vacation package. The per person cost for this package is 670, as shown below:

Per Person

Food and drink

$95

Direct labor

30

Overhead

545

Most of the overhead is the fixed cost of running the theme park, and goes towards marketing, administration, dinosaur bioengineering, customer service, grounds keeping and maintenance, dinosaur food, raptor training, and disaster control. However, $35 is variable with respect to the number of customers in the theme park.

You have recently been promoted to General Manager at Creekview Lodge, a 50 room hotel in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. You started working at the lodge in high school in the restaurant and after college, returned to Creekview as one of the assistant managers before being promoted to hotel manager. Recently, a 200-room hotel opened not far from Creekview Lodge, and although Creekview still maintains near 100% capacity there has been quite a bit of turnover. More than ten employees left to work for the larger hotel which boasted higher pay and better health insurance.

You were informed this morning by the front desk team that the latest customer survey results show a drop in the satisfaction rating for guest room cleanliness. The current report indicates that 73% of guests responded “completely satisfied”, 12% responded “satisfied”, 10% responded “neither satisfied nor unsatisfied”, and 5% responded “unsatisfied.” The housekeeping staff lost four employees to the new hotel, so although disappointed, you aren’t surprised by this news. Still, you could not remember a time that the hotel had received such a low satisfaction rating.

As manager of Creekview Lodge, what is your next step in addressing the problem?

A)Take immediate action and require that all rooms be inspected by the hotel manager (you) or an assistant manager before being made available to customers

D)Review the standards of performance and compare to current performance

Amy Richardson had been a well-paid sales manager of a major hotel chain for 15 years....

Amy Richardson had been a well-paid sales manager of a major hotel chain for 15 years. Due to a hotel owner's illness, Amy was offered the opportunity to purchase a hotel near a seaside vacation area she had often visited. After obtaining a lawyer and a financial accountant to assist her, Amy did an analysis of the most recent financial statements of the hotel. Since the hotel had consistently shown a profit during the past few years, Amy thought that the price of the hotel was reasonable, so she decided to purchase the hotel. She resigned her position, obtained a loan, and purchased the hotel.

During the first year as a hotel manager, Amy received an offer from a tour operator who proposed to guarantee a considerable number of room reservations, including during the off-season. However, she turned down the offer because the tour operator asked for a 20% price reduction compared to the regular room rate. A few weeks later, she decided to shut down the restaurant, located in the main building of the hotel, in order to save expenses. With regard to general expenses, she was particularly concerned with the high room cleaning and service costs. On the sales side, although the reservations for the cheaper standard rooms were a bit sluggish, the more expensive large-size superior rooms had a very good occupancy rate of over 90%.

The following year, there was a severe economic downturn and also a very bad weather season that reduced the number of guests and also caused a resulting mold situation in the hotel building that required expensive repair work. Amy ran short of cash, became emotionally distraught, and eventually had to sell the hotel at a significant loss.

Prepare a cash budget for the first four quarters after Amy’s purchase of the hotel with any data you can imagine or find on the internet. To answer the question, invent some basic cost and revenue data. Enter the numbers directly in the table below. The table of the cash budget itself should not exceed 15-20 lines. In addition to that, make sure to explain your underlying assumptions and comment on the results in the space provided below the table.

  • calculation of cash receipts, including assumptions and comments;
  • calculation of cash disbursements, including assumptions and comments;
  • for overall coherence / form, and overall conclusions/comments

Cash Budget for the first four quarters:

2nd Quarter

3rd Quarter

4th Quarter
