Due to customer no-shows, the Inn at Charlotte hotel is considering implementing overbooking. The Inn at Charlotte has 150 rooms

, and the full fare is $200. The forecast of no-shows is normally distributed with a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 3. The Inn is sensitive about the quality of service, so it estimates that cost of failing to honor a reservation is $325 in lost goodwill and explicit expenses.

Answer:

The unit=9

Explanation:

The Cost of underage Cu= price -cost =200-0 =200 ( as there is no variable cost of the unsold room)

Cost of overage Co= cost - salvage value = 0 -(-325) =325

Service level = Cu / Cu+Co = 200/ 325+200 = 0.3809

which corresponds to the z value of -0.3

the optimum overbooking = mean + z x SD

= 10+ 3 x (-0.3) =9

Allowing the consumer to select the food that best for them, rather than the simply the most appealing package.</span>

What are the differences between flexibility and compromise
marin [14]

Answer:

Flexibility mean you're more flexible about doing something. For example you could have flexible working hours which would mean you can work alot of the time like you can bend easily around when you work and compromise means you're wiling to meet in the middle so an agreement made that makes everyone happy.
