    Tourism and its different aspects —planning, lodgings, alimentation, transport, leisure time, culture— make up an important economic activity. Spain is a country especially conscious of this.

    However, the extremel rapid development of the sector has hardly allowed time to adequate and apply the managerial techniques in common use in other fields of economic activity, which constitute an urgent necessity In accordance with the investments tourism implies and the interests at stake.

    Because of this there is the interest in studies of concrete application such as that presented here. If the bar of a cafeteria is the origin of the receipts of the proprietor, he should be concerned with the proper sizing of the place where his sales become a quantifiable reality.

    The authors set forth two methods for this: one as an application of the theory of queues and the other of simulation, arriving at the same conclusion in the numerical example which serves as the support for the article.
