Calculating commuters

To accommodate those students/schools who wish to commute to the JACC state convention and not stay in the hotel the JACC executive board has established a commuter fee that will also help individuals pay their share of facility rental fees that will accrue. Commuter fees are $250 per delegate. Non-commuter or resident fees remain at $200 per delegate.

The resident fees or non-commuter rates were determined based on the assumption that there are four delegates to a room and you stay three nights.

First you need to calculate the number of room nights by multiplying the number of hotel rooms x the number of nights. Example: 6 hotel rooms x 3 nights = 18 room nights

Next, to calculate how many delegates are commuters and/or residents please refer to the following formula:

# room nights x 4/3 = # of residents rounded to nearest whole number

[#of total delegates - # of residents = # of commuters]

Example: If  Palomar is using 6 room nights this would be the way they would utilize this formula: 6 x 4/3 = 8 resident delegates. So Palomar would be able to bring 8 students at the $200 rate and any students over 8 would be charged at the $250 rate.

Resident/Non-Commuter Chart   3 room nights = 4 resident delegates 4 room nights = 5 resident delegates 5 room nights = 7 resident delegates 6 room nights = 8 resident delegates 7 room nights = 9 resident delegates 8 room nights = 11 resident delegates 9 room nights = 12 resident delegates 10 room nights = 13 resident delegates 11 room nights = 15 resident delegates 12 room nights = 16 resident delegates 13 room nights = 17 resident delegates 14 room nights = 19 resident delegates 15 room nights = 20 resident delegates 16 room nights = 21 resident delegates 17 room nights = 23 resident delegates 18 room nights = 24 resident delegates 19 room nights = 25 resident delegates 20 room nights = 27 resident delegates 21 room nights = 28 resident delegates
