Hotel linen replacements in Kochi

Fictional sizing exercise · sets per year

Estimate sets per year and explain the boundary, assumptions and range.

Start with 80 participating hotels and 45 rooms per hotel. Estimate replacement sets per 100 rooms before revealing the model.

Reveal the worked estimate

Multiply the two base factors by the rate divided by 100. All figures below are simulated teaching assumptions.

  1. Low · 80 × 45 × 50 ÷ 100 ≈ 1,800 sets per year
  2. Base · 80 × 45 × 90 ÷ 100 ≈ 3,240 sets per year
  3. High · 80 × 45 × 130 ÷ 100 ≈ 4,680 sets per year

Cross-check · Ask laundries for discard records. Clarify whether hotels replace individual items or whole sets.
