The hotel manager received an offer to hold the local Bikers' Club annual meeting at the hotel in March, which is the hotel's low season with an occupancy rate of under 55%. The Bikers' Club would reserve 45 suites for three nights if the hotel could offer a 55% discount, or a rate of $94 per night. The hotel manager is inclined to reject the offer because the cost per suite per night is $135. Prepare an analysis of this offer for the hotel manager.

Explanation / Answer
