Monthly Utility Meter Tariff Calculation Not Computing

Would someone please look over my customizations.yaml code and shed light as to why my Monthly Energy Cost is stuck at the ‘Customer Service Charge’ value set as an input_number.

The state ‘sensor.monthly_kwh’ has added at least 1kWh and state ‘sensor.monthly_energy_cost’ has stayed stuck at the $9.65 ‘input_number:customer_svc_charge’. I would have expected the state ‘sensor.monthly_energy_cost’ to have increased by $0.201 per 1kWh added.

sensor:
  - platform: template
      monthly_kwh_cost:
        friendly_name: "Monthly Energy Cost"
        unit_of_measurement: "$"
        value_template: "{{ ((((states('sensor.monthly_kwh')|float) * ((states('input_number.generation_rate') + states('input_number.transmission_rate'))|float)) ) + (states('input_number.customer_svc_charge')|float) )|round(2) }}"
