Key Components and Sections of the Report

The 'Schedule 1 - Rooms' report is designed to provide a comprehensive view of room-specific revenue and expenses. The report is divided into Room Revenue, Room Related Expenses, and Room Department Profit, each offering valuable financial insights:

A. Room Revenue

 The primary source of revenue for a lodging property generally arises from the rental of rooms and suites to guests. Rooms Revenue is divided into four pa ts:

1. Transient Rooms Revenue

2. Group Rooms Revenue

3. Contract Rooms Revenue

4. Other Rooms Revenue.

1. Transient Rooms Revenue

Transient Rooms Revenue commonly includes revenue from renting rooms and suites by individuals or groups occupying fewer than ten rooms per night. It also includes rooms leased to guests who have established permanent residence, with or without a contract. Transient stays typically include the following categories:

a) Retail; b) Discount; c) Negotiated;  d) Qualified; and e) Wholesale.

2. Group Rooms Revenue

Group Rooms Revenue includes renting blocks of rooms or suites to a group. A group is typically defined as ten or more rooms per night sold under a contract. Group Rooms Revenue is recorded net of discounts to wholesalers for selling large blocks of rooms. Rebates or subsidies granted to a group should be recorded as contra revenue. To facilitate effective sales and marketing efforts, Group Rooms Revenue is generally segregated by market segment. Market  segments typically include the following categories

a  Corporate;  b) Association/Convention; c) Government; d) Tour/Wholesalers; and

e) SMERF (Social, Military, Educational, Religious, Fraternal).

3. Contract Rooms Revenue

Contract Rooms Revenue includes revenue der ved from a contract with another entity for a consistent block of rooms for an extended period over 30 days. Contract Rooms Revenue is recorded net of discounts. Examples include domiciled airline crews, ongoing corporate training seminars, and incentive-based benefit programs.

4. Other Rooms Revenue

Other Rooms Revenue is miscellaneous revenue associated with guest rooms. This revenue is included in determining Total room revenue and is used in calculating average daily rate (ADR). Items related to Other Rooms Revenue include:

a) No-shows; b) Day use; e) Early departure fees; f) Late check-out fees; g) Rental of rollaway beds and  ribs; and h) Surcharges and service charges:

Total Rooms Revenue

Total Rooms Revenue is calculated by summing Transient Rooms Revenue, Group Rooms Revenue, Contract Rooms Revenue, and Other Rooms Revenue and subtracting Allowances.

B. Room Related Expenses

Rooms department expenses are separated into two major categories:

1. Labor Costs and Related Expenses

2. Other Expenses.

1. Labor Costs and Related Expenses

Labor Costs and Related Expenses include all of the payroll expenses associated with Salaries, Wages, Service Charges, Contracted Labor, Bonuses, and Payroll-Related Expenses for employees and contractors.
