CHAPTER II ACCOUNTING. ADJUSTMENT OF ACCOUNTS ARTICLE 169 Transit-charge account 1. For the preparation of transit accounts, the light, medium or heavy sacks, as defined by Article 163, are considered as having their average weights of 3, 12 or 24 kilograms respectively. 2. The weight of the closed mails is multiplied by 26 or 13, as the case may be, and the prod- uct serves as the bnsis for individ- ual accounts showing, in francs, the annual payments due to each Administration. In case that the multiplier 26 or 13 does not correspond to the normal traffic, the Administru- tions concerned come to an agree- ment for the adoption of nnother multiplier which holds good dur- ing the years to which the statis- tics apply. The duty of making up the accounts is incumbent upon the creditor Administrution, which trnnsmits them to the debtor Administration.
