Assignment #5: Investigative Work

1- In this special task, you will find two electricity bills from the state or country where you reside.

• The first invoice must be from the last quarter of the year 2022 December 2022
• The second invoice must be from the month of February 2023

2-Once you identify the invoices, you will extract the following information:

• Total, kilowatt-hours consumed
• Number of days billed in that month. (Example: the billing period was 28 days)
• Amount paid for electricity consumption (ENTIRE)

3-Using this information he will calculate the price per Kilowatt/hour.

4-Calculate the total Energy consumed in Joules.

5-Then it will look at the official sources (Example: LUMA Energy, Electric Power Authority, Alabama Power, etc) what is the official cost per kilowatt/hour. It will compare the price of the Kilowatt/hour that you have calculated with the invoices with the one published on the official pages.
