Purchase Of Receivables (POR) Discounts To Decline At Utility
The following story is brought free of charge to readers by EC Infosystems, the exclusive EDI provider of EnergyChoiceMatters.com
Fitchburg Gas and Electric d/b/a Unitil has filed with the Massachusetts DPU new Standard Complete Billing Percentages (purchase of receivables (POR) discount rates).
Fitchburg Gas & Electric's proposed new POR discount rates were approved as follows:
FG&E said that the company has made an adjustment of $325,000 to normalize the amount of write-offs used to calculate the proposed uncollectible discount to be effective December 1, 2018. In 2017, the company delayed recording write-offs while implementing a new billing system in July, resulting in a lower level of write-offs. The company proposes to adjust the uncollectible discount by the estimated write-off amount that would have occurred in 2017 in order to provide a better estimated rate and avoid a large undercollection in the reconciliation for December 1, 2018 through November 30, 2019.
For comparison, the current Fitchburg Gas & Electric residential POR discount is 4.39%, and the current Small/Regular General Service POR discount is -0.08%
