Sažetak
Planning of accommodation capacity is one of the most important tasks of tourism management. Building new accommodation requires long-term investments and considerable funding, which is usually obtained through bank loans. It is therefore crucial to minimize the possibility of making wrong investment decisions in this domain. For this purpose, the decision-making process should include adequate quantitative methods and models. The investment decision support system considered in this paper is based on stochastic sum-of-ratios fractional programming. Solving the posed fractional programming problem, in which the parameters are defined as random variables, yields the combination of accommodation units that will, under given constraints, provide economical operation to a maximum degree. To begin with, the model is presented theoretically, and after that, the procedure of its construction and solution is demonstrated on a hypothetical example. The efficiency and usage value of the proposed model can be significantly improved by computerizing each of its phases. In this way the model becomes accessible to a wider range of managers involved in investment decision making in the area of accommodation planning.
