Sec. 32.5100 Long distance message revenue.
This account shall include revenue derived from message services that
terminate beyond the basic service area of the originating wire center and
are individually priced. This includes those message services which utilize
the public long distance switching network and the basic subscriber access
line. It also includes those long distance calls placed from mobile and
public telephones, as well as any charges for operator assistance or special
billing directly related to the completion of a specific call. This account
shall also include revenue derived from individually priced message services
offered under calling plans (discounted long distance) which do not utilize
dedicated access lines, as well as those priced at the basic long distance
rates where a discounted toll charge is on a per message basis. Any revenue
derived from monthly or one-time charges for obtaining calling plan services
shall be included in this account. This account includes revenue derived
from the following services:
(a) Long distance services which permit unidirectional calls to a subscriber
from specified services areas (multipoint-to-point service). These calls
require the use of dedicated access lines connecting a subscriber's premises
and a designated central office. These dedicated access lines are generally
separate from those required for the subscriber to place outward calls. The
call is billed to the subscriber even though it is generally initiated by
the subscriber's customer or correspondent.
(b) Long distance services which permit the subscriber to place telephone
calls from one location to other specified service areas
(point-to-multipoint service). These calls are completed without operator
assistance and require the use of a dedicated access line. The dedicated
access line is generally separate from those required for inward message
services and cannot be used to place calls within the basic service area or
calls outside the selected service areas. Outward calls are screened and
blocked to determine whether the calls are within an authorized service
area.
(c) Services extending beyond the basic service area that involve dedicated
circuits, private switching arrangements, and/or predefined transmission
paths, whether virtual or physical, which provide communications between
specific locations (e.g., point-to-point communications). Service connection
charges, termination charges, rearrangements and changes, etc., shall be
included in this account. Revenue derived from associated administrative and
operational support services shall also be included in this account.
(1) Narrow-band analog private network circuits and facilities furnished
exclusively for record forms of communications, such as teletypewriter,
teletypesetter, telewriter, ticker, Morse, signaling, remote metering, and
supervisory services.
(2) Private network circuits and facilities (including multipurpose
wide-band) which provide voice grade services for the transmission of analog
signals. It includes revenue from services such as voice, data and telephoto
communication, as well as remote metering, supervisory control,
miscellaneous signaling and channels furnished for the purpose of extending
customer—provided communications systems. It includes revenue from the
provision of facilities between customer premises and a serving office, a
carrier distribution point, or an extension distribution channel.
(3) Private network circuits and facilities furnished for audio program
transmission purposes, such as radio broadcasting, sound recording (wired
music) and loud speaker services. It includes revenue from the provision of
facilities for the transmission of analog signals between customer premises
and a serving office, a carrier distribution point, or an extension
distribution channel furnished in connection with such services. It also
includes revenue from facilities furnished to carry the audio portion of a
television program if furnished under separate audio rates. If the rate for
television program services includes both the picture and sound portion of
the transmission, the revenue shall also be included in this account.
(4) Private network circuits and facilities furnished for television program
transmission purposes, such as commercial broadcast and educational or
private television services. It includes revenue from the provision of
facilities for the transmission of analog signals between customer premises
and a serving office, a carrier distribution point, or an extension
distribution channel furnished in connection with such services. It also
includes revenue from both the picture and sound portions of transmission
for television program service when provided under a combined rate schedule.
(5) The provision of circuits and facilities for the transmission of digital
signals only.
(6) The provision of common user channels and switching capabilities used
for the transmission of telecommunication signals between three (3) or more
points in the network. Also included is revenue derived from the provision
of basic switching and transfer arrangements used to connect private line
channels.
(7) Charges and credits resulting from contractual revenue pooling and/or
sharing agreements for tariffed long distance public network services and
for tariffed long distance private network services.
