Customer retail unit cost (applied to Apparent Losses) : ? M $4.50 $/1000 gallons (US)
Variable production cost (applied to Real Losses) : ? M $160.48 $/million gallons (US)
DATA REVIEW - Please review the following information and make changes above if necessary:
- Input values should be indicated as either measured or estimated. You have entered:
10 as measured values
6 as estimated values
0 as default values
2 without specifying measured, estimated or default
- Water Supplied Data: No problems identified
- Unbilled unmetered consumption: No problems identified
- Unauthorized consumption: No problems identified
- It is important to accurately measure the master meter - you have entered the measurement type as: measured
- Cost Data: No problems identified
