Capital credits are how the ASTAC assigns a portion of the net tax margin left over, after covering operating expenses, to the member owners of the cooperative. Capital credits represent a member’s portion of the net tax margin ASTAC generates, but they are not cash and they cannot be cashed in or used to pay your bill. Negative net tax margins (operating losses) are used to offset future year’s positive net margin. For additional information go to Capital Credits.

Capital credits are allocated to member accounts each year and become a permanent record of member equity until retired. Retirement occurs when the Cooperative is in a strong financial position that allows maintenance and expansion of services and a payment of a portion of member’s equity (their allocated capital credits). In the past, the Board has chosen to reinvest earnings into new services like wireless.
