Hours-Based Electric Rate
Warning: 
If your organization does not sell electric service (or if you do and don't use hour-based steps) you might want to skip this example as it involves understanding a fairly complex electric concept - kWh / kw = hours.
The following table illustrates the rate components necessary to levy a rate that contains the following charges:
• Monthly service charge: $10.00.
• First 10 hours of use at $0.0673 per kWh.
• Remaining hours of use at $0.032 per kWh.
• State Tax at the prevailing rate (this tax is a percentage of a dollar value).
• County Use Tax at the prevailing rate (this tax is an amount per kilowatt-hour).
