Formula:
The total charge for each completed call may
be a variable measured charge dependent on
the duration , distance and time of day of thecall. The total charge for each completed
call may also be dependent only on the
duration of the call , i. e. a statewide flat
rate per minute charge. The variable
measured charge is specified as a rate per
minute which is applied to each minute. All
1+ and toll-free calls are measured in six
second increments with an eighteen second
minimum per call. All calling card calls are
measured in one minute increments. All calls
are rounded up to the next whole increment.
Usage charges for all mileage sensitive
products are based on the airline distance
between rate centers associated with the
originating and terminating points of thecall. The airline mileage between rate
centers is determined by applying the formula
below to the vertical and horizontal
coordinates associated with the rate centersinvolved. The Company uses the rate centers
that are produced by Bell Communications
Research in the NPA-NXX V&H Coordinates Tapeand Bell's NECA Tariff No.
