Rounding Digits The number of rounding digits to used to calculate define the cost of the call.
Call Cost = Billing Time Increments * Rate
Billing Time Increments. If the Call Duration is less then or equal to the Initial Increment then the Billing Time Increment is 1. Otherwise the Billing Time Increments is the (Call Duration - Initial Increment)/Subsequent Increments) rounded up and then add back the Initial Increment. Note: the Call Duration must be at lease 1 second in duration. Billing Time Increments can be expressed by the following Microsoft Excel formula:
Billing Time Increments = IF(Call_Duration>0,IF(Call_Duration<=Initiial_Increment,1,ROUNDUP((Call_Duration-Initiial_Increment)/Subsequent_Increments,0)+1),0)
For example, a 205-second call is made using a Rate Deck with a 0.00137 rate with a 6-second initial duration and a 6-second increment, results in 205/6 = 35 time increments (always rounded up). The cost of the call would be .
Billing Time Increments = (205-6)/6 rounded up + 1 = 35 billing increments.
Cost = 35 * 0.00137 = 0.04765 with 5 or more Rounding Digitsrounding digits.
