HOW TO USE IT

Copy the bill’s units first.

Match every field to the unit printed on your statement. Use the current billing period, preserve fixed charges, and compare a similar number of service days.

For a stronger estimate

Use the exact rate from your bill instead of a reference average.
Keep taxes, credits and past-due balances separate.
Check tiers or time-of-use windows in the utility tariff.
