(ii) Clients will be invoiced at a fee per day. The budgeted occupancy level will vary with the client fee level per day and is estimated at different percentages of maximum Capacity as follows:
Occupancy as
Client fee percentage of
per day Occupancy level, maximum capacity
$180 High 90%
$200 Most likely 75%
220 Low 60%
(iii)Variable costs are aIso estimated at one of three levels
per client day. The high most likely and low levels per client
day are $95, $85 and $70 respectively.
