Answer: A successful strategy is to show guests the restaurants and explain the cuisine before they go to their rooms, which has prompted more guests to dine in the restaurants during their stay...The best way to prevent these occurrances is to have a good control system, which should include people who are paid to use the bar like regular guests, but are really there to check on the bartenders.

Explanation:

Restaurants; hotel guests are not always predictable. Sometimes they will use the hotel restauraunts, and other times they will dine out. A successful strategy is to show guests the restaurants and explain the cuisine before they go to their rooms, which has prompted more guests to dine in the restaurants during their stay.

Bar; Bars is measured by the pour/cost percentage. Post cost is obtained by dividing the cost of depleted inventory by sales over a period of time. Operations with lower pour costs have more sophisticated control systems and a higher-volume catering operation. Some bartenders tend to overpour measures to receive larger tips. The best way to prevent these occurrances is to have a good control system, which should include people who are paid to use the bar like regular guests, but are really there to check on the bartenders.

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The number of adult tickets is 371.

The number of children's tickets is 629

Explanation:

Let A be the number of adult tickets sold and C be the number of children's tickets sold. The following linear system can be modeled based on the information provided:

A+C=1,000\\8.25A+4.75C=6,048.50

Solving the linear system:

8.25A -4.75A+4.75C-4.75C=6,048.50-4,750\\A=\frac{1,298.50}{3.5}\\A=371\\C=1000-371\\C=629

The number of adult tickets is 371.

The number of children's tickets is 629.

12. What happens as a result of a shortage? a. There is downward pressure on prices. b. There is upward pressure on prices. c. C
choli [55]

Answer:

Option C There is upward pressure on prices

Explanation:

The reason is that the price and supply are inversely proportional to each other. If the supply increases the prices of the product will decrease. This means that the product will increase its value if the supply of the product gets lower. Also note that the price moves upward to reach equilibrium for a level of supply. It means if the product prices increases then the supply shortage will be lowered as a result nobody will buy the product. So the supplier will have to lower price that the consumer will be willing to pay to the supplier.

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Rate of return= 11.25%

Explanation:

<em>The accounting rate of return is the average annual income expressed as a percentage of the average investment.  </em>

<em>The simple rate of return can be calculated using the two formula below:  </em>

<em>Accounting rate of return  </em>

= Annual operating income/Average investment × 100  

Average investment = (Initial cost + scrap value)/2  

Average annual income = Total income over investment period / Number of years

Average investment = (60,000 + 20,000)/2= $40,000

Average annual income is already given as  = 4,500

Rate of return = 4500/40,0000 × 100 = 50%

Rate of return= 11.25%
