Hotel One is one of the two hotels serving Dayville, a small town in the US Midwest. Fifty percent of its customers are out-of-town visitors to the local college


Background
Hotel One is one of the two hotels serving Dayville, a small town in the US Midwest. Fifty percent of its customers are out-of-town visitors to the local college, 30 percent are visiting Dayville for business purposes, and the remaining 20 percent of Hotel One’s customers are leisure travelers. The hotel is within one mile from campus, approximately four miles from the city center, and eight miles from the airport. It is easy to reach by car, taxi, or city bus. You are a manager of Hotel One. Your facility consists of 150 rooms, all of which are standard rooms with two double beds. Your only competitor in Dayville, The Other Hotel, has fewer rooms (100), but 20 of their rooms are luxury suites with king beds and a sofa couch (the other 80 are standard rooms with two double beds). This is the extent of the information provided to you at this point.

Assignment
In order to better understand your unit’s operating environment, you are asked to provide your estimate of the demand equation that would account for various factors that affect your customer traffic. This will be done by using regression techniques. The first step in estimating a demand equation is to determine what variables will be used in the regression. Please provide detailed answers to the following questions:
1. What do you think should be the dependent variable in your demand equation? What units of measurement for that variable are you going to adopt? Please provide a detailed explanation for these choices. 2. Please request information about up to five independent (explanatory) variables for your demand equation. For each variable you request, (i) provide reasons why you expect it to be important for your analysis and (ii) explain the expected sign of the relationship between the proposed independent variable and your proposed dependent variable. 3. Show the exact demand equation you are proposing to estimate. 4. List at least three other variables that you considered as independent (explanatory) variables in the regression, but chose not to include. Why did you choose not to include them?

First International Bank ​(FIB​) is examining the profitability of its Premier​ Account, a combined savings and checking account.

FIB recently conducted an​ activity-based costing study of its services. It assessed the following costs for six individual services. The use of these services in 2017 by three customers is as​ follows:

Assume Robinson and Butler always maintain a balance above​ $1,000, whereas Slaton always has a balance below​ $1,000.

Account Usage Activity-Based Cost per "Transaction"   Robinson   Slaton Butler

Deposit/withdrawal with teller $2.40 42 54 6

Deposit/withdrawal with automatic teller machine (ATM) 0.80 12 24 17

Deposit/withdrawal on prearranged monthly basis 0.40 0 14 58

Bank checks written 8.40 8 4 1

Foreign currency drafts 12.20 3 2 5

Inquiries about account balance 1.20 9 19 8

Average Premier Account balance for 2017 $1,325 $800 $25,500

Depositors receive a​ 2% annual interest rate on their average deposit. FIB earns an interest rate spread of 3​% ​(the difference between the rate at which it lends money and the rate it pays​ depositors) by lending money for​ home-loan purposes at​ 5%. Thus, FIB would gain​ $60 on the interest spread if a depositor had an average Premier Account balance of​ $2,000 in 2017 ​($2,000 x 3​% ​= $60). The Premier Account allows depositors unlimited use of services such as​ deposits, withdrawals, checking​ accounts, and foreign currency drafts. Depositors with Premier Account balances of​ $1,000 or more receive unlimited free use of services. Depositors with minimum balances of less than​ $1,000 pay a $20​-a-month service fee for their Premier Account.

1.

Compute the 2017 profitability of the Robinson​, Slaton​, and Butler Premier Accounts at FIB.

2.

Why might FIB worry about the profitability of individual customers if the Premier Account product offering is profitable as a​ whole?

3.

What changes would you recommend for FIB​'s Premier​ Account?

Prepare THREE financial statements as described in the requirements below.

Kathy Wintz formed a lawn service business as a summer job. To start the business on May 1, 2018, she deposited $1,000 in a new bank account in the name of the business. The $1,000 consisted of a $600 loan from Bank One to her company, Wintz Lawn Service, and $400 of her own money. The company issued $400 of capital to Wintz. Wintz rented lawn equipment, purchased supplies, and hired other students to mow and trim customers’ lawns. At the end of each month, Wintz mailed bills to the customers. On August 31, she was ready to dissolve the business and return to college. Because she was so busy, she kept few records other than the checkbook and a list of receivables from customers. At August 31, the business’s checkbook shows a balance of $2,000, and customers still owe $750. During the summer, the business collected $5,500 from customers. The business checkbook lists payments for supplies totaling $400, and it still has gasoline, weed trimmer cord, and other supplies that cost a total of $50. The business paid employees $1,800 and still owes them $300 for the final week of the summer. Wintz rented some equipment from Ludwig’s Machine Shop. On May 1, the business signed a six-month rental agreement on mowers and paid $600 for the full rental period in advance. Ludwig’s will refund the unused portion of the prepayment if the equipment is returned in good shape. In order to get the refund, Wintz has kept the mowers in excellent condition. In fact, the business had to pay $300 to repair a mower. To transport employees and equipment to jobs, Wintz used a trailer that the business bought for $300. The business estimates that the summer’s work used up one-third of the trailer’s service potential. The business checkbook lists a payment of $500 for cash withdrawals paid during the summer. The business paid the loan back during August. (For simplicity, ignore any interest expense associated with the loan.)

Requirements

1. Prepare the income statement and the statement of owner’s equity of Wintz Lawn Service for the four months May 1 through August 31, 2018.

2. Prepare the classified balance sheet (report form) of Wintz Lawn Service at August 31, 2018.

3. Was Wintz’s summer work successful? Give your reason for your answer.
