Hospitality Financial Leadership: The 6 Quadrants of GOPPAR

David Lund | March 7, 2022

By David Lund GO PAR is the new and exciting measurement everyone is talking about in the hotel business. But let’s be honest. It is a bit of a stretch to comprehend. It is a little more complicated than REVPAR. Why you ask? Well, REVPAR has two components: occupancy and rate. That is all you need to square the calculation. GO PAR has six components and I am going to lay them all out here. A big part of the struggle people have is the idea that GO PAR is an accounting thing. It is true that the calculation is based on accounting theory but stick with me here, it is a straightforward concept. GO PAR like REVPAR is easy to square. Yo...

Hospitality Financial Leadership: What’s Possible in the Future With Hotel Financial Statements

David Lund | January 18, 2021

By David Lund I am a big fan of the Uniformed System of Accounts for the Lodging Industry (USALI), or as she is affectionately called “You Sally.” It has been the guide that our industry uses to properly present financial information for a long…long time, in fact almost 100 years. It lays out the format for our financial statement presentation and essentially acts as a referee if you like, to tell us what goes where. What revenues, costs of goods, expenses, and payroll belong to which department. Having a guidebook in its 11th edition that details where it goes and what it looks like are a gift. I know many industries struggle w...

Improving the Hotel Bottom-Line Begins With Knowing How to Read a P&L

HotStats | December 7, 2020

By Aggie Wojciechowska "Here's the bottom line..." It's a familiar turn of phrase that is succeeded by the speaker getting to the sum or crux of the issue—the overarching point. In running a hotel, getting to the bottom line means getting to what matters: profit. In order to arrive at that point, there are many inputs, both revenue and expense related, which mingle together to produce an outcome. The telling of that dance is recorded in the profit and loss statement (P&L), a signpost that records the story, of which the bottom line is the finale. How to read the story is the first step toward financial success. The P&L (al...

Hospitality Financial Leadership: A Bit About “You Sally”

David Lund | November 30, 2020

By David Lund By someone’s estimate there are roughly one million hotels in the world. I take it that number includes all the different kinds of hotels from small inns and hostels all the way up to your full-service multi-outlet mega hotel operations. For simple math I am going to estimate that half of this number of hotels fall into the small inns and hostels, and that leaves 500,000 of what I’m going to call real hotels. Of those 500,000 I am willing to bet that 50 percent do not know about or use “You Sally.” If we ramp that number up by multiplying the 250,000 real hotels by the average number of department managers, GMs and...

Benchmarking 101: The Bottom Line on Utility Costs

HotStats | September 22, 2020

In the age of COVID, numerous operating costs have decreased, as hoteliers have done all they can to reduce expenses to help offset the extreme reduction in revenue. Still, there’s never zero cost. Even a closed hotel has expenses. So, too, do hotels operating at reduced capacity. One of the areas that hoteliers should always be mindful of is utilities, which in the 11th edition of the Uniform System of Accounts for the Lodging Industry (USALI) are recorded in the Property & Maintenance schedule. Utilities include electricity, gas, propane, oil and water/sewer. Utilities can have a massive impact on a hotel’s profit. And even...
