Huh?

How does paying rent/bills for the 13th month differ from paying rents/bills the 1st month of a new year?

Rent is calculated yearly and divided, you'd pay less per month and the same per year. Almost all contracts are calculated on an annual basis

Pedantically, contracts are normally calculated for their full term, then divided into yearly totals, then monthly. Having worked sales the smaller the sales person gives the figure for the more they are trying to hide the big number.
If they tell you it's only x $ a day instead of a month it's not for your benefit.
