Rate by 100

The Rate by 100 Report is a useful summary of a publication’s per-copy rates for accounts, broken out by AAM zone. For two date ranges, it lists:

  • Total charges:

    • Draw charges and credits, including draw adjustments (draw * rate)

    • Return credits (returns * rate)

    • Net charges (draw charges - return credits)

  • Total copies:

    • Total draw, including draw adjustments

    • Total returns

    • Net draw (draw - returns)

  • Average copies:

    • Total draw / number of publishing days in range

    • Total returns / number of publishing days in range

    • Net draw / number of publishing days in range

  • Average rate per 100:

    • (Draw charges / total draw) * 100

    • (Return credits / total returns) * 100

    • (Net charges / net total) * 100

The report will print in publication order and, within each publication, in AAM zone order. The report does not rate draw on its own, but relies on draw information created by Account Billing Processing (see the Accounting chapter of the User Manual). Therefore, if you want unbilled charges included on the report you must start an account billing run, process it, create the Rate by 100 Report, and then undo the billing run. Bulk and unpaid circulation is not included on the report.
