the nearest exchange and the equipment to monitor that customer's phone line or service
connection. They are usually paid on a monthly basis, and called rental.
Usage charges: these charges are variable and are used to pay for the cost of the equipment to
route a call from the caller's exchange to the recipient's exchange. These data charges can be
calculated on a fixed per data basis, a variable basis depending on the time or distance of the
call, or a combination of the two. data charges can even vary at different times of the day.
