Tourism & Hospitality Management QUESTION #1608
Question 1
According to the Front Office Operations and Management course, the 'Hubbart Formula' is used to determine which aspect of hotel room management?
  • The number of housekeeping staff required per floor
  • The scientifically calculated room rate based on desired return on investment, operating costs, and projected occupancy✔️
  • The booking forecast for the next quarter
  • The front office staffing schedule for peak seasons
Correct Answer Explanation
The Hubbart Formula is covered in Module 4 (Room Rate Structure) of the Front Office Operations course. It is a bottom-up approach to room rate calculation that works backward from the hotel's desired return on investment, adding operating costs and dividing by projected room nights to arrive at the required average room rate.
