The table illustrates the daily revenue generated by a downtown restaurant for lunch and dinner services during the week of October 7th to 13th. Overall, dinner sales consistently outperformed lunch throughout the week, with both meal periods experiencing a significant decline in revenue during the weekend.
During the weekdays, from Monday to Friday, lunch sales remained relatively stable, fluctuating between $2,375 on Thursday and a peak of $2,595 on Wednesday. Similarly, dinner revenue was robust during this period, starting at $3,623 on Monday and climbing to a weekly high of $4,350 on Friday. Notably, Wednesday saw identical dinner figures of $3,850 as Tuesday, while Thursday’s dinner sales dipped slightly to $3,800.
In contrast, the weekend witnessed a marked downturn for both services. Lunch revenue dropped to $1,950 on Saturday and reached its lowest point of $1,550 on Sunday. Dinner sales followed a similar downward trajectory, falling to $2,900 on Saturday and further decreasing to $2,450 on Sunday. Despite this weekend slump, dinner remained the primary source of income, consistently generating higher figures than lunch across all seven days, with the gap between the two services being most pronounced on Friday.
