Study Notes

Hospitality and Tourism Finance - Organizational Chart

  • The organizational chart illustrates a hospitality and tourism business structure.
  • Key divisions include operational (front office, housekeeping, restaurants, services, spa, and sales/marketing) and non-operational (administration, HR, maintenance).
  • A general manager heads all departments.

Room Division

  • Income Statement: A financial report detailing revenue, expenses, gains, and losses during a specific accounting period. It provides insight into profitability and earnings per share.
  • Occupancy Rate: Measures lodging occupancy percentage, expressed as a percentage.
  • Example Calculation: 125 rooms * 365 days = 45,625 total available room nights.
  • Occupancy Rate Formula: Number of rooms sold / Number of rooms available
  • Occupancy rate is variable: The number of available rooms depends on factors like room maintenance.

Room Division Revenue

  • Average Daily Rate (ADR): The average daily revenue per rented room.
  • ADR Formula: Room division revenue / Number of rooms sold.
  • Example Calculation: With revenue of 2,712,000, 90 rooms, 240 days, and 16,650 room nights sold, the ADR is 162.88.
  • Revenue Per Available Room (REVPAR): Measures revenue for each available room.
    • Method 1: Room division revenue / Available rooms
    • Method 2: Occupancy rate x ADR

Financial Performance Expectations

  • Profitability expectation: Target a net profit margin of 10%.
  • Operating Profitability (EBITDA): Seek a 30% EBITDAR (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and rent).
  • Cost considerations: Rent, depreciation, insurance, interest, and taxes total 20% of expenses.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

  • Market Penetration Index (MPI): Measures the hotel's occupancy compared to market average occupancies.
  • Average Rate Index (ARI): Compares the hotel's average daily room rate to competitors.
  • Revenue Generation Index (RGI): Examines if the hotel's revenue per available room is comparable to competitors.

Break-Even Point (BEP)

  • Definition: The revenue level where total costs equal total revenue, resulting in zero profit or loss.
  • Analysis: Loss below BEP, profits above BEP.
  • Calculation: Fixed costs / (% contribution margin) = Break-even revenue.

Expenses

  • Cost of Goods Sold (COGS): Direct product costs.
  • Explanation: Monitor COGS closely; a variance of more than 0.5% from budget warrants attention.
  • Inflation: Rising general price level affects costs.
  • Inventory management: Prevent losses through efficient inventory management.
  • High supplier prices: Evaluate higher-than-expected supplier costs.
  • Waste, portion size issues, and theft: Address these significant expenses.
  • Labor costs: Keep a close eye on labor costs, and ensure productive use of labor.
