The expenditure level for water supply and sewerage as well as the effectiveness of the recourses application in the industry forms the index of cost price. Net cost of the works or services produced or provided by water and sewage enterprises includes all costs of drinking water extraction, production and supply to the consumers, water collection, drainage and purification for further use or release into the water ponds (including hot water and water purified in the municipal buildings).
