The electric utility rate for a facility during the months of May through October is 4.5 cents per kilowatt-hour for energy, $11.50 per kilowatt peak demand, and a $68.00 per month meter charge. During the August billing period the facility used 96,000 kw-hrs and set a peak demand of 624 kw during the time between 4:45 P.M. and 5:00 P.M. in the afternoon on August 15. Calculate the August electric bill.

Sagot :

Answer: $11564

Explanation:

Total units consumed for August = 96000

There's a peak demand of 624kw

Also, the May through October is 4.5 cents per kilowatt-hour for energy.

The August electric bill will then be:

= 96000 × 4.5/100 + 624 × 11.50 + 68

= (96000 × 0.045) + (624 × 11.50) + 68

= 4320 + 7176 + 68

= 11564
