Graduated cost per offset
A cost profile where an amount per unit is registered and used for unit based calculations on the readings, taking the graduated offset into account. An applicable VAT percentage is added to the calculated value.
The first reading indicates 15,000 kwh.
The charges for this reading are calculated as follows:
• From 0 - 9,999 kwh, price per unit is € 1.00.
• The costs are - (9,999 * 1.00) = 9.999,00.
• From 10,000 - 19,999 kwh, price per unit is € .90
• The costs are - (5,001 * 0.90) = 4,500.90.
• Total charges for the reading: 14,499.90
The second reading indicates 10,000 kWh. The total reading is 25,000. now.
The charges for this reading are calculated as follows:
• Calculate the charge for that reading after the first reading of 15,000:
• (4,999 * 0.90) = 4,499.10
• (5,001 * 0.80) = 4,000.80
• Total charges for both second reading is: 8,499.90
Note that, in this type of cost calculation:
• NO recalculation of the first reading is done.
• Negative readings for graduated calculation can be done for correcting the values after a recalculation based on the readings.
