Answer to Question 1

The elder clientele in the nearby area would most likely not be interested in this type of cuisine. This is an issue of surveying the current and prospective demand.

Answer to Question 2

A 22 percent departmental profitability is within the range presented by the HOST data. It is important to analyze the specific factors of each individual F&B department as opposed to the aggregate. However, assuming similar property types are included within the industry data, the subject property is operating at or near market levels. However, it is towards the lower end of the range suggesting that there is room for improvement through asset management.
