LP Case Study – Tatu’sFood Kiosk

Problem Statement

Tatu is a senior at Tech, and she’s investigating different ways to finance her final year at school. She is considering leasing a Food Kiosk outside the Tech stadium at home football games. Tech sells out every home game, and Tatu knows, from attending the games herself, that everyone eats a lot of food. She has to pay $1,000 per game for a Kiosk, and the Kiosks are not very large. Vendors can sell either food or drinks on Tech property, but not both. Only the Tech athletic department concession stands can sell both inside the stadium. She thinks slices of cheese pizza, hot dogs, and barbecue sandwiches are the most popular food items among fans and so these are the items she would sell.

Most food items are sold during the hour before the game starts and during half time; thus it will not be possible for Tatu to prepare the food while she is selling it. She must prepare the food ahead of time and then store it ina warming oven. For $600 she can lease a warming oven for the six-game home season. The oven has 16 shelves, and each shelf is 3 feet by 4 feet. She plans to fill the oven with the three food items before the game and then again before half time.

Tatu has negotiated with a local pizza delivery company to deliver 14-inch cheese pizzas twice each game – 2 hours before the game and right after the opening kickoff. Each pizza will cost her $4.50 and will include 6 slices. She estimates it will cost her $0.50 for each hot dog and $1.00 for each barbecue sandwich if she makes the barbecue herself the night before. She measured a hot dog and found it takes up about 16 in2 of space, whereas a barbecue sandwich takes up about 25 in2. She plans to sell a piece of pizza for $1.50 and a hot dog for $1.60 each and a barbecue sandwich for $2.25. She has $1,500 in cash available to purchase and prepare the food items for the first home game; for the remaining five games she will purchase her

    Yes, I believe Julia should hire her friend for $100 per game. In order for Julia to prepare the hot dogs and barbeque sandwiches needed in a short period of time to make her profit, she needs the additional help. Also, with her borrowing the extra $158.88 from her friend, Julia would be able to pay her friend for the time spent per game helping with the food booth.…

    The idea of Julia borrowing money would not be necessary because what is limiting her profit is the limited space she has in the oven. In the model all of the oven space is being utilized by Pizza and Hotdogs. If she borrowed money she wouldn’t have enough room to stock more food. She would have to borrow enough money to rent another oven, if there was enough space in the booth, and enough money to buy additional supplies. In addition, assuming that my calculations are correct paying a friend to help her does not seem like a good idea as it would further cut into any profit and increase costs.…

    Summary Of Til's Grill

    The total budget for the event was $360.00. This was well under the estimate of over $500.00. This was a result of the food and supplies being provided by the coaching staff. For this cost, we not only got the food and supplies, but posters, decorations, and covers for the tables. The only additional cost was for the cook and the use of his propane fryer, which was supplied by Til’s Grill. Also, the costs of printing the posters and the receipt books were lower than estimated which resulted in a great savings. Meal pre-sales brought in a total of $340.00. This was lower than the estimated total of $810.00. That was because of the “No Food Sales” rule at the high school before 4:00 pm. We could not guarantee that everyone placing a pre-order would receive their food prior to their scheduled departure times. In total the profit of the event was $1485.00 in donations. This total made the event come in under our budget, but over our own expectations.…

    Moreover, the restaurant would open 52 weeks annually. Lunch bill would amount to $12 while dinner would amount to $25 per person. Therefore, for the seats of 30, the restaurant would have revenue of $360 ($12*30) for lunch per turn; and $750 ($25*30) for dinner per turn. Thus, the annual revenue would be $600,600 ($360*5*52+$750*13*52).…
