Reliant Energy (the electric company in Houston, Texas) charges customers as follows:

Monthly charge $6
First 250 kWh @ $0.02/kWh
All additional kWh @ $0.07/kWh

If a customer uses 2,436 kWh in one month, how much will Reliant Energy charge?


Monthly charge = $6

First 250 kWh @ $0.02/kWh = $5

Remaining 2,436–250 kWh = 2,186 kWh @ $0.07/kWh= $153.02

Total = $164.02
