1. Analyze Ambassador Suites’ staffing budget

   Ambassador Suites Inc. operates a downtown hotel property that has 300 rooms. On average, 80% of Ambassador Suites’ rooms are occupied on weekdays, and 40% are occupied during the weekend. The manager has asked you to develop a budget for the housekeeping and restaurant staff for weekdays and weekends. You have determined that the housekeeping staff requires 30 minutes to clean each occupied room. The housekeeping staff is paid $14 per hour. The housekeeping labor cost is fully variable to the number of occupied rooms. The restaurant has six full-time staff on duty to staff the restaurant for breakfast and lunch (eight hours), regardless of occupancy. However, for every 60 occupied rooms, an additional person is brought in to work in the restaurant for breakfast and lunch (eight hours). The restaurant staff is paid $12 per hour.
