How to control the cost in the hotel?

First, define the objectives and tasks, and make a clear plan for the project

Only by reducing the projects and tasks with unclear objectives can we reduce unnecessary costs, because each project and task is put forward to serve the goal. So when we analyze the project, we can cut some unclear goals and tasks.

2. Cost accounting and comprehensive "three-oriented" management

We all know that without standard quantification based on numbers, it is impossible to talk about frugality and control. Standard cost accounting and comprehensive quantification, refinement and refined management can not only provide managers with clear details of income and expenditure, but also effectively improve hotel management, make relevant explanations for related overruns, and control costs within a reasonable budget.

Third, refine the cost tasks of various departments with economic quantitative indicators

Generally speaking, the quantitative breakdown of costs is actually a respect for real investors. The specific method is mainly to formulate cost standards (including the indicators specified in the cost plan) according to the business situation of the previous year, and then set the maximum amount of each expense this year, and decompose it into various departments, and then decompose it into groups and individuals, so as to link it with individual rewards and punishments, realize the unity of responsibility, right and benefit, and finally form a clear and clear target cost management system throughout the enterprise.

Fourth, strengthen cost accounting and carry out strict synchronous control

To strengthen hotel cost accounting, we should establish a strict cost audit system, so as to ensure the balance of income and expenditure to a certain extent. All expense budgets can only be paid after applying for examination and approval before spending, even if it is stipulated or approved in the original plan, it must be applied for and approved. At the same time, managers should also strengthen the daily control of various costs and improve the collection, recording, transmission, summary and sorting of the actual occurrence of various costs.

5. Correcting deviations in time

Under the standard of cost control, check, evaluate and supervise each process of cost formation to ensure the smooth progress of cost control process. At the same time, managers should also find out the causes of cost changes, identify responsibilities, identify situations, prioritize, propose improvement measures, and implement them.

Importance to hotel cost control

1. It is an important way for hotels to increase profits and directly serve the purpose of hotels. Under any circumstances, reducing costs can increase profits. Even if the state-owned hotels are not entirely for profit, if their costs are high and their survival is threatened, it will be difficult to play a role in regulating the economy, expanding employment and improving public utilities. At the same time, it will also affect the government finances, increase the burden on taxpayers, be unfavorable to the national economy and people's livelihood, and lose its value of existence.

2. It is the main guarantee to resist internal and external pressures and survive. There are unfavorable factors such as horizontal competition, government taxation and economic environment reversal, and there are pressures from employees to improve their treatment and shareholders to demand dividends. The weapons used by hotels to resist internal and external pressures are mainly to reduce costs, improve product quality, innovate product design and increase production and sales. Increasing the selling price will lead to the corresponding price increase requirements of dealers and suppliers and increase the burden of turnover tax, while reducing the cost can avoid such pressure.

3 is the foundation of hotel development. With low cost, it is possible to reduce prices and expand sales. Only when the business foundation is consolidated can we improve product quality, innovate product design and seek new development. One of the important reasons why many hotels are in trouble is that they blindly develop when the cost is out of control, and blindly take risks in promoting sales and developing new products. Once the market shrinks or makes mistakes in decision-making, hotels have no resistance and will soon cross over.
