Answer:

The best rate for the hotel for profit maximization is = 340 $/room

Explanation:

Given that

A hotel room has = 50 rooms

The rate per night = $180

More room are available when the rate is increased by = $10

A maintenance fee of =$20

Now

We find the best rate for the hotel in order to  have for profit

Thus,

When no rate increase is found we have the following,

Cost = ( 180 $/room * 50) = $ 9000

Thus,

When there is a rate increase for a room, we have the following

10x $/ room

The new cost becomes = (180 + 10x) $/room * (50 - x)

which is = 9000 = 500x - 180 x - 10x²

= 9000 + 320 x - 10x²

To get the new profit, we have the following :

Thus,

Profit = (New cost) - (cost)

Profit = (9000 + 320 x - 10x²) - (9000)

= 320x - 10x²

By applying maximization

dp/dx = 0 = 320 -10 * 2x = 0

So,

x = 16

Therefore,the best rate for the hotel for profit maximization is = (180 + 10 * 16)

=340 $/room

Monthly deposit= $450

Number of months= 59

Interest rate= 0.21/12= 0.0175

To calculate the final value, we need to use the following formula:

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit

FV= {450*[(1.0175^59) - 1]} / 0.0175 + 450

FV= $46,031.45
