Electricity Board bill calculator:
An Electricity Bill (EB) Calculator is a tool used to estimate the cost of electricity consumption based on the units consumed and applicable tariff rates.
Formula:
Electricity Cost = Electricity Consumption (kWh) x Tariff Rate per unit.
Example:
# Function to calculate electricity bill based on unit consumption
def eb(unit):
# First 100 units are free
if unit <= 100:
cost = 0.00
# For 101–200 units, charge ₹2.50 per unit above 100
elif unit <= 200:
cost = (unit - 100) * 2.50
# For 201–300 units, add ₹3.00 per unit above 200
elif unit <= 300:
cost = 100 * 2.5 + (unit - 200) * 3.00
# For 301–400 units, add ₹4.50 per unit above 300
elif unit <= 400:
cost = 100 * 2.5 + 100 * 3 + (unit - 300) * 4.50
# For units above 400, add ₹6.00 per unit above 400
else:
cost = 100 * 2.5 + 100 * 3 + 100 * 4.5 + (unit - 400) * 6.00
# Return the total calculated cost
return cost
# input the total units consumed
unit = int(input("Enter the unit: "))
# Call the `eb` function to calculate the electricity bill
eb_bill = eb(unit)
# Display the calculated electricity bill amount
print("Electricity bill amount:", eb_bill)
Output:
Enter the unit:345
Electricity bill amount: 752.5
