1. What is Average Daily Rate?

Average Daily Rate (ADR) is a key performance metric in the hospitality industry that measures the average revenue earned per occupied room per day. It helps hotels and accommodation providers understand their pricing performance and revenue management.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the ADR formula:

\[ ADR = \frac{\text{Total Revenue}}{\text{Number of Days}} \]

Where:

\( ADR \) — Average Daily Rate (dollars per day)
\( Total Revenue \) — Total revenue generated (dollars)
\( Number of Days \) — Time period in days

Explanation: This simple division gives you the average revenue per day, which is crucial for analyzing daily performance and making pricing decisions.

3. Importance of ADR Calculation

Details: ADR is essential for revenue management, helping businesses set optimal pricing strategies, measure performance against competitors, and maximize profitability. It's one of the three key metrics in the hospitality industry revenue management formula.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter total revenue in dollars and number of days as a positive integer. Ensure accurate revenue figures for precise ADR calculation. This metric is typically calculated for specific time periods (daily, weekly, monthly, or annually).
