Discount Plan Calculation
- Enrolled in a plan offering a 10% discount for calls made during the hours of 7pm-6am.
- Per minute charge for calls is $0.10, with an added sales tax of 6%.
- First month's usage included:
- 130 minutes between 6am-7pm (non-discounted time).
- 400 minutes between 7pm-6am (discounted time).
- Total bill for the first month amounted to $51.94.
Limited Plan Overview
- The "limited plan" provides a 15% discount on power use from 7pm-9am, applicable only if most usage occurs within this time frame.
- If the majority of usage occurs outside these hours, the discount is forfeited, resulting in a 20% surcharge.
- Cost for power usage is $0.05432 per kilowatt hour (KWH).
- For March, if usage totaled 450 KWH during the discount hours and 465 KWH during non-discount hours, the total bill would be $54.75.
