      Before taxes.... I think voice services typically have about 33% tax on them.

      SIP has far less taxes than legacy phones. But there are taxes, yes.

        I'm very tired and read this as "Is it too early to do Meth?"

        Nah, sun is up.

          I'm not calculating taxes, that's like calculating the overhead a file system architecture would take on a new server infrastructure.

          Totally insane for me to be looking to do that. Leave that to the accountants. (aka storage specialist)

            SIP calling is insanely cheap. But generally, there is a small monthly charge to have service. Don't forget that part.

              Yeah, voip.ms has an $.85/month fee, that's $10.20 a year.

                  That's a big percentage of your total there 🙂

                    It's per DID.

                    So add a few grand per year in SIP service charges.

                      And the inbound rate is $0.01 for US calls, which would effect the price.

                      But by a matter of dollars per month if everything was outbound calling. I'll list the price, but not going to take a guess at the outbound/inbound ratio of calls.

                      As there is no where that I can even gather that information.

                      Thanks for the help guys.

                        VoIP.ms (and every other provider I know of) charge you per DID. VoIP.MS is in the $0.85 each to $1.50 each range for most DID.

                        Hedre is a sample of a couple months from VoIP.ms

                          Just do all your math on the $0.01 per minute rate. Makes life easier.

                              Is it a fee for simply having an account or a fee for the DID?

                                It's for having the DID. Essentially a parking fee.

                                  Think of a DID cost like a static IP cost.

                                    Static IPs are free (included with cost) with Cox. 😛

                                      Included with cost isn't free. You are paying for them.
