FCC Form 1220 is used by cable
operators to demonstrate their costs of providing cable service in
order to justiy rates above levels determined under the
Commission's benchmark technology. Operators file FCC Form 1220
with local franchising authorities of the Commission where the
Commission has assumed jurisdiction when justifying rates based on
cost of service. FCC Form 1220 may also be filed as part of an
operator's response to a complaint filed with the Commission about
programming service rates and associated equipment when justifying
rates based on cost of service.
