How this is calculated

Block rate = rack rate × (1 − discount). Comps = rooms ÷ comp ratio, rounded down.

Expected revenue = paid rooms × (1 − attrition) × nights × block rate. At risk = full block − expected.

Contribution = expected revenue − cost to turn each picked-up room.

Prices are before GST/HST. Add tax on top of the price shown, never inside your margin. Estimates, not advice.
