Justin, One other comment. You do not say whether this fee is being paid to the utility company or a third party, e.g. bank is imposing it for handling the transaction. In the latter case, it would make more sense to track it separately from the charges by the utility company. If it is imposed by the utility company itself, then it is only necessary to track it separately as an expense if you feel knowing that information is of benefit to you, i.e you wish to minimize the fees you pay.
I would challenge the utility company if the fee goes to them. If it is a handling charge for using a credit card for payment for example, and you have other options for payment which don't incur the fee, then it should be a separate line item in your bill with separate totals for the different payment options. There may also be legislative reasons that the fee has to be separate from the bill, but that should only affect disclosure of the fee, not inclusion in the total owing but legislators sometimes ,make life diffcult for businesses.
