There are three activity pools: guest check-in, room cleaning, and meal service. The activity rates associated with each activity pool are $8.60 per guest check-in, $24.00 per room cleaning, and $3.00 per served meal (not including food).

Answer:

Total cost= $126

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

There are three activity pools:

$8.60 per guest check-in

$24.00 per room cleaning

$3.00 per served meal.

Janelle Washington visited the hotel for a 4-night stay. Janelle had 7 meals in the hotel during the visit.

We will assume that the room gets clean every day:

Total cost= Estimated activity-based cost* Actual amount of allocation base

Total cost= 8.60*1 + 24*4 days + 3*7 meals= $125.6
