Interesting piece of Math. Lets assume a company pays 10c a minute for Long distance calls currently. If they have 12 lines and they are ALL contantly in use for 8 hours of 5 business days a week it will cost them as follows.

each line costs 7 * 8 * 60 * 0.1 = 336 dollars per week per line

so for 12 lines we have 12 * 336 = 4032 per week in call charges

So lets say someone could provide a box @ 20K and calls @ 5c

then the costs would be 7 * 8 * 60 * 0.05 = 166 dollars per week

so for 12 lines we have 12 * 168 = 2016 per week in call charges

If we take the $2016 in saving and apply it to the box we pay for the box in 10 weeks.

I would take that kind of payback period.

Total annual savings
