1.1. A total amount of revenue that a regulated service provider is allowed to earn from consumers
AI-assisted research summary: A regulated service provider’s recoverable revenue is governed by three principles: prudence, known-and-measurable cost support, and used-and-useful assets.
2.1.1. A total amount of revenue that a regulated service provider is allowed to earn from consumers General Principles will satisfy three general principles as follows: (a) Prudence Principle – This requires use of reasonable judgement in light of the current facts known at the time a decision is made to accomplish the desired result at the lowest reasonable cost and in a reliable, safe and in a timely manner. The burden of proof to show that an operating or investment decision is prudent will be on the service provider; (b) Known and Measurable Principle - This requires a service provider to justify costs to be recovered with documentation and facts. The service provider will have to prove that costs to be recovered are measurable or estimated, legitimate and necessary for operations; and (c) Used and Useful Principle - This requires that an asset has to be used and useful in the provision of regulated service in order for that asset to earn a return that will be recovered through tariff. 3 Tanzania Shipping Agencies (Tariff) (Amendment) GN. NO.475 (Contd.) - 2 Verify source ↗
2.1. Required revenue will be a function of the following
AI-assisted research summary: The provision explains how required revenue is calculated and requires certain service providers to support asset values and keep supplier transactions efficient, arm’s length, and not above market rates for related-company purchases.
2.2.1. Required revenue will be a function of the following: (a) Regulatory Asset Base - Regulatory Asset Base to be considered in determining tariff will consider a list of proposed assets as provided in the Asset Register Schedule in a submitted Business Plan. A new service provider will be required to submit evidence of value of assets through purchase agreement or receipts. Regulatory Asset Base will be a result of summation of non-current assets including properties, plants and equipment and Allowable Working Capital (AWC) less Grants or any third-party contributions. AWC is the difference of Current Asset and Current Liabilities, but not exceeding annual operating costs enough to sustain over 45 days; (b) Weighted Average Cost of Capital - Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is a combination of costs of two primary forms of finance, equity and debt, weighted by a mix of forms of finance in the capital structure referred to as gearing or leverage. The cost of capital will be determined depending on the availability of reliable data. Otherwise, industry observed average or previous findings and recommendations from relevant studies will be adopted; and (c) Operating Expenses - Operating expenses will include costs incurred on the items which are consumed in the same year. Consideration will be made to assess whether the costs are legitimate and relevant in the provision of regulated services. Other key considerations will be on the prudence of the cost incurred and that they represent rendering of services under normal operations as opposed to special cases. A regulated service provider shall ensure that all transactions with suppliers are efficiently undertaken and are at arm’s length; where, a service provider incurs a cost by procuring an item from a related company; then such cost must not exceed prevailing market rates.

AI-assisted research summary: The service provider may include certain costs as operating costs, including repair, maintenance, personnel, administration, financial, fund management, ICT provider fees, and reasonable business promotion, event, and CSR expenses.
2.4. Costs categories to be included as part of the operating costs are repair and maintenance costs, personnel costs, administration costs, financial costs and other contractual obligation such as fund management fee and fees payable to Information and Communication Technology (ICT) providers. The service provider will also be allowed to include reasonable amounts for business promotion expenses, events and corporate social responsibility expenses. - 2 Verify source ↗
4.1. Details of the above-mentioned cost items are as provided below
AI-assisted research summary: A regulated service provider must submit detailed cost information with its application, and the Corporation reviews it against local market and other benchmarks.
2.4.1. Details of the above-mentioned cost items are as provided below: (a) (b) (c) A regulated service provider will provide, as part of the application, a detailed monthly staff payroll. In assessing the prudence and reasonableness of the proposed salary and wage levels, the Corporation shall make comparison with salaries of counterpart professionals within the local market. Moreover, review of sector salary ranges as approved by relevant Wage Boards will also be made; Costs for repair and maintenance will be provided by a regulated service provider, the estimate must be detailed enough to facilitate the Corporation to understand the submission. The Corporation will review the submission and make comparison with provisions made by other similar service providers who are efficient. The Corporation will also review other documents maintained by any competent relevant authority, if any, on the cost of repair and maintenance. In case the submission on repair and maintenance is found to be high, the Corporation will assume the lowest established cost of repair and maintenance to be applicable unless the service provider submits justifications for the submitted amount; Cost of lubricants for service provision is likely to be significant. Therefore, the service provider will be required to separate this item from the repair and maintenance cost. The Corporation in its determination shall assume the cost 4 Tanzania Shipping Agencies (Tariff) (Amendment) GN. NO.475 (Contd.) of lubricants does not exceed 15% of fuel costs. Where, the cost of lubricants is above 15%, a regulated service provider will be required to provide justifications to convince the Corporation to maintain the submitted proposal; Control of administrative costs is a key aspect in achieving affordable services. Therefore, a regulated service provider will be required to avoid unnecessary administrative costs as part of improving efficiency. Administrative costs may include stationeries, utility charges such as water and electricity charges and other legitimate expenses; Fuel pump prices differ from one centre to another. The sheer volume of fuel that will be purchased by a regulated service provider gives an opportunity for negotiating prices at a discounted rate. Hence, for the purpose of the analysis, the regional average price cap per litre of applicable type of fuel, as announced by the competent authority prior to the determination will be applied and an upward adjustment of up to 15% may be made to provide for price variations in the near future; Other payable fees including fund management and ICT fees will be retrieved from the service provision contracts. Therefore, a regulated service provider will be obliged to submit with the application, copies of the service provision contract; and Regulated service providers will be required to pay legitimate fees and levies, these will be included in the required revenue.

AI-assisted research summary: This provision explains depreciation and describes two common calculation methods: straight-line and reducing balance.
2.8. Depreciation is the reduction in economic value of assets due to usage in the provision of services. There will come a point in time where it will be more cost effective in the long term to replace the asset rather than to continue maintaining it. Two methods are commonly used in providing for depreciation. The first method is a straight- line method and the second one is a reducing balance method. Under the straight-line method, a scrap value or residual value is subtracted from the purchase price and then divided by the expected number of years of usage to obtain a value of depreciation to be written off annually. The second approach is the reducing balance method, where a percentage of the value is written off each year until the scrap value is reached. Note that under the reducing balance method, higher values are written off in the earlier years. - 2 Verify source ↗

9.2. Other Considerations
AI-assisted research summary: A regulated service provider must indicate estimated demand in its submission, using the projected demand in the submitted Business Plan.
2.9.2. Other Considerations (a) Determination of Replacement and Investment Costs - Replacement of investment and new investment will be considered depending on the guiding principles of prudence and usefulness of the asset to be allowed as additions to the regulatory asset base provided that the same has been included in the submitted Business Plan. Within the context of this guideline replacement of investment will mean repairs of existing assets to ensure continuity of provision of service at present capacity and quality level whereas new 5 Tanzania Shipping Agencies (Tariff) (Amendment) GN. NO.475 (Contd.) investment will mean provision of new assets to improve quality or expand services or both; (b) Number of Employed Staff - A regulated service may be reviewed in order to establish appropriate number of required staff. Furthermore, other relevant laws such as labour laws will be reviewed to guide on the optimal number of staff to be employed by a regulated service provider. These considerations will be undertaken with the view to ensure that the service provider is keen on improving efficiency of the regulated services; and (c) Estimated Demand - A regulated service provider in the submission will indicate estimated demand for the service. This should base on the projected demand as indicated in the submitted Business Plan. - 2 Verify source ↗
11. A test period is the period used to quantify the amount of regulatory asset base used to provide
AI-assisted research summary: A test period is the period used to measure the regulatory asset base and expenses for allowed revenue requirement, and the Corporation must choose a representative period.
2.11. A test period is the period used to quantify the amount of regulatory asset base used to provide the services and expenses incurred in the determination of allowed revenue requirement. The test period can either be historical or future. In choosing the test period, the Corporation will ensure that such period is representative of time over which the tariff shall actually be charged. - 2 Verify source ↗
11.1. In case a future period is used as a test period, asset base in service will be estimated based
AI-assisted research summary: If a future period is used as a test period, the asset base in service is estimated from projected investment.
2.11.1. In case a future period is used as a test period, asset base in service will be estimated based on the projected investment. This has the advantage of being able to match the period for which the asset is estimated with the period for which the tariff will actually be in effect. However, it has the disadvantage that a regulated service provider may project asset additions, and later fail to make such investment and therefore receive a return and depreciation element on non-existent asset. - 2 Verify source ↗

AI-assisted research summary: The Corporation will use a historical period as a test period so assets in service represent typical operations.
