Student Name: Student ID: Unit name: Prepare and monitor budgets Unit code: SITXFIN010 Trainer name: Due date and time: Activity 8 This is the yearly budget with a monthly breakdown for Johnny’s Place, a restaurant on the beach. Using these values, calculate the following statistics and upload the answer as a document. A. Which month is expected to be the busiest? December B. What % of the yearly income is that month? ( $237,023.24 / $2,197,325.27 ) x 100 = 10.8% C. Which one is the best month for staff to take their annual leave? Why? July, Because Reduced Customer Traffic: During the winter months, there are likely fewer tourists visiting the beach, resulting in lower customer traffic at the restaurant. This means that there is less demand for staff during this time, making it easier for remaining employees to cover shifts while others are on leave. This is because Jul has the lowest total sales ($135,770.65), indicating potentially lower workload and less impact on operations due to staff absence. Page 1 of 6
