Formula used
Available Room Nights = (Total Rooms − Out-of-Order Rooms) × Period Days
Occupied Room Nights = Entered sold rooms, or Available Room Nights × Occupancy Rate
Room Revenue = Occupied Room Nights × ADR, unless a manual room revenue value is entered
Total Operating Revenue = Room Revenue + Food Revenue + Beverage Revenue + Other Department Revenue + Other Operating Revenue
Total Operating Expenses = Sum of all operating expense lines entered in the calculator
Gross Operating Profit = Total Operating Revenue − Total Operating Expenses
GOPPAR = Gross Operating Profit ÷ Available Room Nights
RevPAR = Room Revenue ÷ Available Room Nights
TRevPAR = Total Operating Revenue ÷ Available Room Nights
GOP Margin = (Gross Operating Profit ÷ Total Operating Revenue) × 100

- Choose whether occupancy will be entered as sold room nights or as a percentage.
- Choose whether room revenue should come from ADR or from a manual revenue figure.
- Add all operating revenues such as food, beverage, and other departments.
- Add department and undistributed operating expenses line by line.
- Press Calculate GOPPAR to display the result above the form.
- Use the CSV and PDF buttons after calculation to save or share the output.
Why GOPPAR matters
GOPPAR shows how much gross operating profit a property creates for each available room night. Unlike occupancy or ADR alone, it combines revenue strength and cost control into one decision-ready measure. It is useful for hotel owners, asset managers, operators, finance teams, and performance analysts.
FAQs
1. What does GOPPAR mean?
GOPPAR means gross operating profit per available room. It divides operating profit by available room nights, helping you compare profitability across dates, markets, and properties of different sizes.
2. How is GOPPAR different from RevPAR?
RevPAR only measures room revenue efficiency. GOPPAR goes further by subtracting operating expenses, so it reflects actual operating profitability instead of topline room income alone.
3. Should out-of-order rooms be excluded?
Yes. Out-of-order rooms reduce true room availability. Excluding them gives a more realistic denominator and prevents understating performance for rooms that could not be sold.
4. Can I use occupancy percentage instead of sold rooms?
Yes. This calculator accepts either occupancy percentage or occupied room nights. That makes it useful for forecasting, budgeting, and reviewing actual performance.
5. Which expenses should be included?
Include normal hotel operating expenses such as department costs, administration, utilities, property operations, management fees, and similar operating lines used in your internal reporting.
6. Does GOPPAR include taxes, interest, and depreciation?
Usually no. GOPPAR focuses on gross operating profit, which normally excludes financing, income taxes, depreciation, and major non-operating items unless your reporting method handles them differently.
7. Why calculate TRevPAR and GOP Margin too?
These supporting measures explain the story behind GOPPAR. TRevPAR shows total revenue efficiency, while GOP Margin shows how much revenue converts into operating profit.
8. Is this calculator suitable for budgeting?
Yes. You can test different ADR, occupancy, revenue mix, and expense assumptions to model expected profitability before a period begins.
