$77,000 as LTV of IL resident; average IL operating margin of 44% $88,500 as LTV of AL resident; average AL operating margin of 31%


Marketing ROI Calculation (AL Example) Average Monthly Rent Average Monthly Care Charge Average Length of Residence (in Months)

$4,000 $300 18

Lifetime Value of Resident

$77,400

FORMULA: ($4,000 + $300) x18 = $77,400

Referral Agency Percentage Cost of Referral ($4,000 + $300) x 0.85

Return on investment FORMULA: $77,400 LTV - $3,655 referral expense $3,655 6

85% $3,655

2018% = 20.18

or 2018% ROI


Translation:

85% $3,655

ROI Profit ONLY

What If A Resident Moves Out? Referral Agency Percentage Cost of Referral Lifetime Value of Resident Average Operating Profits

85% $3,655 $77,400 31%

Number of referrals staying 18 months Referrals who stay 3 months

LTV of referred residents

4 1

$322,500

FORMULA ($77,400 LTV x 4) + ($4,300 x 3 months) = $322,500

Referral fees

$18,275

FORMULA: $3,655 referral fee x 5 referral fees paid = $18,275

ROI on Profit from all referrals

447%

FORMULA ($322,500 LTV of all referrals x 0.31) - $18,275 referral fees $18,275 10

= 4.47 or 447% ROI

Lost Revenue: What you don’t get when a unit remains unrented – – – –

Poor sales Inefficient marketing Under renovation Converted to other uses

Can’t Be Re-Captured!


Calculating Lost Revenue

Potential Occupancy – Average Daily Census Multiply by Average Daily Rate Multiply by Days in the Month = Lost Revenue


Calculating Lost Revenue Step 1: Calculate Average Daily Census Community Units Days in the Month Total Days that the units are occupied

100 31 2,640

Average Daily Census

85.2

FORMULA: 2,640 days occupied 31 days in the month

15

= 85.2


Calculating Lost Revenue (continued) Step 2: Calculate Average Daily Rate Total Units - Studios - One Bedrooms - Two Bedrooms

100 40, at $100 per day 50, at $125 per day 10, at $150 per day

Total Daily Value

$11,750

FORMULA: (40 x $100) + (50 x 125) + (10 x 150) = $11,750

Average Daily Rate $117.50 FORMULA $11,750 Total Daily Value 100 Units 16

= $117.50


Calculating Lost Revenue (continued) Total Potential Occupancy – Average Daily Census Multiply by Average Daily Rate Multiply by Days in the Month = Lost Revenue

100 units – 85.2 average daily census = 14.8 units vacant on average 14.8 vacancies x $117.50 average daily rate = $1,739 lost revenue/day $1,739 x 31 days = $53,909 lost revenue per month


Why Calculate Lost Revenue? ►

Why we don’t do it – Focus on budgeted occupancy numbers – Focus on monthly numbers, not aggregate – Focus on under-performing communities vs. entire portfolio

Why it’s important – “Speak the language of Operations” – Understand the impact of sales concessions – Choose appropriate marketing strategies
