  • "Gross revenues" means any and all revenue as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") derived from the operation of a cable communications system to provide cable service. Gross revenues include, by way of example and not limitation, revenues from equipment sales and rentals services, installation, late fees and other subscriber charges, fees for carriage of programming, advertising revenue and shopping services recorded as revenue in accordance with GAAP; the term encompasses revenues that are received now, as well as new revenue sources that may develop in the future. "Gross revenues" shall include revenues of affiliates using the cable communications system in the city to provide cable service (other than those revenues which are already treated as the revenues of the franchisee) to the extent required to prevent avoidance of fees owed on gross revenues.
