Surveys reveal that the vast majority of hotel guests in the United States resent the high prices of the items in the mini-bars in their hotel rooms.These guests would prefer to have an empty refrigerator in their rooms in order to have space to put their own food and beverages, although a large percentage of these guests would still make at least one purchase from their in-room mini-bar. After analyzing the results of the study, the management of Hotel T decided that it would be more profitable to eliminate the mini-bar and install empty refrigerators in each room.
Which of the following, if true, would support Hotel T's plan to increase profitability by eliminating in room mini-bars in favor of empty refrigerators?
1. There is currently some space available in Hotel T's in-room mini-bars for guests to put their own items.
2. Hotel T is located in the United States.
3. Some guests of Hotel T do not make any purchases from their in-room mini-bars.
4. The money that Hotel T makes from the mini-bar purchases of its guests is less than the money that Hotel T loses from discarding mini-bar items that have not sold by their expiration dates.
5. It will cost Hotel T less money to maintain empty refrigerators in its guest rooms than to maintain stocked mini-bars in those rooms.
Will tell the OA in a few posts. Just to note, I think the OA omits something and I would like some clarification on it once a few people have posted.
Thanks!
