Should Changes in Volume Discounts be counted in Net Installs?

Photobucket

Question from Rachelle Haid

This month we installed service to a customer who has a volume discount.  This installation caused them to meet a threshold where they will get a larger discount on every active service that they have with us.  Should we count the increased discount in net installs.

Answer:

Since we define net installs as the change in billable run rate from one month to the next, a change in volume discount should also be counted.  We have 3 categories that are graphed -

  • Gross Installs
  • Gross Disconnects
  • Other

A change in volume discount should be graphed in “Other” and if the change was material, a callout should be placed on the graph to provide information on this event.
