Question:
The effect of the pandemic has a major impact on the income of the Indonesian tourism sector, including hotel entrepreneurs. The impact of the government policy, which began to close down several business sectors to minimize the impact of the pandemic, caused hotels to stop their operations for approximately 3 months. In a total of 3 months, hotels received almost no income at all except from travelers who rented rooms on a monthly basis. Hotels are trying to survive the Corona virus pandemic. There are hotels that offer 30-day stay packages at affordable prices for travelers.
In the midst of the Corona pandemic, the SBI hotel offers a price of IDR 5,000,000 per month for each room to interested travelers. For an even cheaper budget, a traveler can stay at the Zest brand at a price of IDR 3,000,000 per month.
Whereas for middle to upper 4-star brands such as SB hotels, SB residence ,, SB lboutique, including Hotel Ciputra, the price of staying is IDR 7,000,000 per month.
"In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are committed to providing a comfortable and clean place to live for those who wish to isolate themselves independently," said Gavin M. Faull, Chairman and President of SB International in his statement, Saturday 11/4/2020 (traveldetik. com).
These efforts have a good impact on the efforts of hotels in order to raise revenue for hotel operating costs. However, hotel expenses, especially room maintenance costs that are mixed boarding must be incurred. With such difficult conditions, Hotel SBI does not target profits, the important thing is that the fixed boarding house can be covered by its income. Thus, management requires information on how much fixed and variable costs are actually issued. The following is the behavior of room maintenance boarding for 10 months.
