    E) Level the facility load.

    Explanation:

    The facility load refers to the utilized capacity of the restaurant. Apparently this restaurant's sales are not that high during the weekdays, and in low periods it probably falls even more. The largest portion of a restaurant's costs are generally fixed costs that must be paid regardless of the sales volume.

    By offering special promotions and discounts during weekdays, management hopes to increase sales volume.

    The same applies to hotels that offer special discounts on low travel seasons because they are open and they need to cover their fixed costs.
