Alluring Ridge Luxury Resorts has been evaluating how it might expand its sustainability efforts in its hotels.

  

Requirement 1. Using the high-low method, calculate the cost per guest of laundry per day. (The volume should be the number of room days, which you will have to calculate for each month.)

Begin by calculating the number of room days for each month.

 

The variable cost per guest of laundry per day is $_________.

Requirement 2. Using the high-low method, calculate the cost per guest of housekeeping per day. (Again, the volume should be the number of room days, which you would have calculated for Requirement 1.) (Round your answer to the nearestcent.)

The variable cost per guest of housekeeping per day is $_________.

More Info In any given month, an average of 54,750 room days are available in total (this total capacity figure is roughly estimated by taking the total number of hotel rooms in the hotels owned by Alluring Ridge and multiplying by 30 days per month.) Management is currently targeting two areas for sustainability projects: laundry and housekeeping. Laundry: Currently, in each hotel room, a small sign is placed beside the bed that informs the hotel guest that the environment will benefit if the guest reuses the linens. The company has experienced some success with the signs; the cost of laundry has decreased slightly over the past several years that the program has been in place. Management is now considering the possibility of giving guests a $0.70 credit on their hotel bill for each day of the stay that the linens in the room are reused rather than laundered. Housekeeping: Management is also evaluating the possibility of expanding sustainability efforts in housekeeping by providing an incentive of a $0.90 credit on the hotel bill for each day the guest opts to skip a daily room cleaning.
