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).
