How are the annual charges worked out?<br />
continued...<br />
A quarter of the annual standing<br />
charge is included on each of the<br />
four bills you will receive in a<br />
year, although the standing<br />
charge is calculated daily, so a<br />
slight variance may occur.<br />
The sewerage volume charge<br />
normally is based on 95% of the<br />
water you have used as recorded<br />
by the meter.<br />
If your property has a surface<br />
water connection and you use 25<br />
cubic metres of water a quarter,<br />
your quarterly bill would be made<br />
up as follows:<br />
<strong>Water</strong>*<br />
Standing charge £7.47<br />
Volume charge (25 x £1.57) £39.25<br />
Sewerage<br />
Standing charge £3.15<br />
Volume charge (25 x 95% x £2.7977) £66.45<br />
Total amount payable £116.32<br />
* Subject to VAT at the standard rate for some customers (see VAT<br />
section on page 7).<br />
