$10.00 fixed amount for credit recipients
Add $1.00 each for the first 10 credit recipients
Add $.50 each for the next 20 credit recipients
Add $.25 each for all additional credit recipients
Add $0.01 each for the first 1,000 (one thousand) total access lines less credit recipients
Add $0.005 each for the next 2,000 total access lines less credit recipients
Please provide the calculation of administrative costs if using a different formula or method to
determine administrative costs.
G. TOTAL DUE
Please remit net surcharge revenues (revenues collected less assistance revenues paid and the
administration cost incurred by the company). If net surcharge revenues are negative, a credit is
due to the company. Please submit the form and ITSAP will reimburse the company for the
