Base Recommendation
You should also prepare 200 cans or bottles of soda when you are arranging a standard party. AFTER ALL… 2 cans per guest during event?12
Duration Considerations
This is fine as long as you make another allowance if the party goes for longer than two or three hours. A rule of thumb is adding one serving per guest for every hour outside this timeframe. For example:
That is a total of 300 cans (1 can x the length) for an additional hour over and above 2 hours which would be needed for a party that lasts shorter than four hours.
That number would increase to 400 cans for a shorter, 5-hour party.
