Q2. Please make full displacement analysis based the following information:
Hotel A has 40 rooms. The average transient rate in March is $120. The variable room cost is $17 (per room).
The Windsor is also paying a management fee of 4% and a marketing fee of 3% of room revenue (both).
A local universitys business student alumni association plans a reunion. The group requests single rooms for $72 per room night, meals (breakfast $8, lunch $18, dinner $20), and other services for a 3-day event between March 6 8.
The following is the groups request:
| Date | Rooms | Breakfast | Lunch | Dinner | Meeting room |
| 03/06 | 21 | 21 | 0 | 21 | ----- |
| 03/07 | 20 | 20 | 0 | 0 | $200 |
| 03/08 | 20 | 20 | 15 | 0 | $200 |
| Total | 61 | 61 | 15 | 21 | $400 |
The forecasted occupancy of the hotel for the days in question is as follows:
| 03/06 | 03/07 | 03/08 |
| 30 | 27 | 25 |
This means that the hotel will have to displace some of the forecasted transient demand.
The hotels capture rate (% of transient guests purchasing a meal) and other relevant data per meal period for transient guests in March are as follows:
| Meal | Price | Food cost % | Transient capture % |
| Breakfast | $10 | 30% | 60% |
| Lunch | $25 | 34% | 35% |
| Dinner | $30 | 32% | 45% |
