Marina Occupancy: Measure occupied slip-days against rentable wet-slip capacity for a selected operating period.
Age 5Explain it to a 5-year-oldStart with a picture
Imagine using Marina Occupancy to answer this question: measure occupied slip-days against rentable wet-slip capacity for a selected operating period? Enter Installed wet slips, Operating days represented, Unavailable slip-days, and 2 other inputs; the calculator shows Marina wet-slip occupancy. Try changing one number and watch what happens to Marina wet-slip occupancy. The answer tells you Marina wet-slip occupancy.
Age 15Explain it to a 15-year-oldConnect it to the formula
Separate annual, seasonal, transient, maintenance, unusable and complimentary slip-days consistently. The rule is Marina occupancy = occupied slip-days ÷ effective rentable slip-days. Its input values are Installed wet slips, Operating days represented, Unavailable slip-days, Occupied paid slip-days, Selected occupancy target (%), and the main result is Marina wet-slip occupancy. Try changing one number and watch what happens to Marina wet-slip occupancy.
CollegeExplain it at college levelState the model precisely
This tool models one operating decision from explicitly supplied company assumptions. The implemented relation is Marina occupancy = occupied slip-days ÷ effective rentable slip-days, evaluated from Installed wet slips, Operating days represented, Unavailable slip-days, Occupied paid slip-days, Selected occupancy target (%) to produce Marina wet-slip occupancy. Separate annual, seasonal, transient, maintenance, unusable and complimentary slip-days consistently. The model omits unentered taxes, cash timing, legal constraints and market uncertainty. Compare the output with company records and a downside scenario before committing resources.
The decision this tool supports
Measure occupied slip-days against rentable wet-slip capacity for a selected operating period.
Why the business model works
Separate annual, seasonal, transient, maintenance, unusable and complimentary slip-days consistently.
Inputs and operating assumptions
This model uses Installed wet slips, Operating days represented, Unavailable slip-days, Occupied paid slip-days, Selected occupancy target. Keep currencies, accounting treatment and time periods consistent with one another.
The formula
Marina occupancy = occupied slip-days ÷ effective rentable slip-days
What the calculator produces
The primary output is Marina wet-slip occupancy; it also exposes Additional occupied days for target, Effective rentable slip-days. Change one assumption at a time so the comparison remains explainable.
Before using the result in a decision
This compact model cannot capture every tax, accounting, legal, market or operational condition. Compare the output with current company records, cash timing and the downside scenario before committing resources.
