The task of posting room rates and taxes should be performed first because it is essential for the smooth operation of the business.

Additionally, this task needs to be completed before other tasks, such as depositing cash or preparing reports, as it provides the foundation for financial transactions and reporting.

7. Which of the following is typically considered the most important outcome of the front office audit?

Explanation

The daily operations report is typically considered the most important outcome of the front office audit because it provides a comprehensive overview of the hotel's performance and activities on a daily basis. This report includes important information such as occupancy rates, revenue generated, guest complaints, and any operational issues that need to be addressed. By reviewing the daily operations report, hotel management can identify areas of improvement, make informed decisions, and ensure that the front office is running smoothly.

8. What report would a manager need to determine which guests are approaching the house limit?

Explanation

A high balance report would provide a manager with the necessary information to determine which guests are approaching the house limit. This report would display the balances of each guest's account, allowing the manager to identify those guests who have accumulated high balances. By reviewing this report, the manager can take appropriate actions such as contacting the guests to discuss their balances or implementing measures to prevent them from exceeding the house limit.

Submit
9. At what stage does the auditor compare the postings of cash payments and paid-outs with actual cash on hand?

Explanation

The auditor compares the postings of cash payments and paid-outs with actual cash on hand at the stage of depositing cash. This means that after all the cash payments and paid-outs have been completed, the auditor verifies if the amount of cash that should be on hand matches the actual amount of cash that has been deposited. This helps ensure that there are no discrepancies or errors in the cash handling process.

Submit
10. What type of charge might a hotel pre-set its computer to to automatically post on a daily basis?

Explanation

A hotel might pre-set its computer to automatically post valet parking charges on a daily basis. This means that guests who use the valet parking service will have the charge for it automatically added to their bill each day. This is a common practice in hotels to streamline the billing process and ensure that all charges are accurately recorded and accounted for.
