BREAKEVEN ANALYSIS
Fixed Costs
◦ Rent/Lease: Monthly cost for property.
◦ Salaries: Wages for staff including management, receptionists, and
housekeeping.
◦ Utilities: Electricity, water, and other essential services.
◦ Marketing: Ongoing promotional expenses.
◦ Insurance: Coverage for property and liability.
Variable Costs
◦ Supplies: Costs for toiletries, linens, and other consumables.
◦ Maintenance: Regular upkeep and repair costs.
Revenue
◦ Average Daily Rate (ADR): The average price at which rooms are
sold.
Occupancy Rate: Percentage of rooms occupied over a
given period
ESTIMATED CALCULATION
Formula:
Breakeven point = Fixed cost/ ADR – Variable Cost
Fixed cost = 500,000
ADR = 100
Variable cost = 20
= 500,000/100-20
= 6,250
This means Ramada needs to sell 6,250 room nights per
year to cover its fixed costs and break even.
