The prompt
A fictional hospital group, Kestrelvale Hospitals, plans a 200-bed hospital in Riyadh. Building and equipping it costs SAR 1,000,000 per bed. Fixed operating costs are SAR 150 million a year. Each occupied bed day brings SAR 5,000 of revenue and SAR 1,500 of variable cost. What occupancy does it need to break even, and what is the simple payback at 75 percent occupancy?
