Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of pricing strategies in business hotels. Through the analysis, we will attempt to identify the impact on the lease period and sales of business hotels, and how it changes with the introduction of policy simulation. In this study, pricing strategy is considered as a policy. Through Agent-Based Simulation, we will match borrower and lender agents and analyze the results of the balance between supply and demand, and we will consider pricing strategy in our analysis. We will measure the policy effects from individual strategies, using the framework created by previous studies that considered prices. A bottom-up policy evaluation will be conducted, and exploratory studies will be conducted to determine that it is an effective tool.
