Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition The followingare the more significant factors bearing on the financial condition ofIndiana &Michigan Elec-tric Company and its subsidiaries as reflected in the consolidated results of operations. This discussion re-fers to the consolidated financial statements that fol-low.
Operating Revenues and Expenses Consolidated operating revenues increased 11.2% in 1984 compared to 'a 7.3% increase in 1983, while kilowatt-hours sales increased 9.7% and 1.6% in the
'same periods. The increase in operating revenues dur-ing 1984 was primarily due to the increase in kwh sales along with additional rate reliefand increased recovery of fuel costs. This increase was partially offset by a provision for refund relating to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission investigation of the AEP Sys-tem's policies withrespect to coal purchasing and prac-tices (see "Regulatory Matter" in Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
The 1983 in-crease in operating revenues was mostly due to addi-tional rate relief and increased kwh sales.
The im-provement in energy sales in 1983 reflects the hot sum-mer and colder weather in late fall and early winter as well as the gradual recovery of the economy in the Company's service area.
Revenues from retail customers (residential, com-mercial and industrial) were up 9.9% in 1984 on an increase of 3.4% in kwh sales while in 1983 these rev-enues were up 10.6% with a corresponding increase of 2.7% in kwh sales. The 1984 increase in energy sales includes a 6.6% increase in sales to industrial custom-ers, reflecting the continued improvements in the economy in the Company's service area. This, along with rate relief and increased fuel cost recovery, ac-counts for the retail revenue increase realized during 1984. The 1983 increase in revenues was largely due to higher rates which went into effect during 1983.,
The rebound in energy sales to other utilities that began in the last half of 1983 continued in 1984.
Wholesale revenues increased 16.7% in 1984 on an in-crease of 16.1% in kwh sales. Prior-year wholesale rev-enues increased 5.5% on an increase of 0.6% in kwh sales.
The continued recovery in wholesale sales to other electric utilities is a reflection of how the Com-pany is able to take advantage of its high operating availability, low operating costs and efficien transmis-sion system to increase its "opportunity sales" to neighboring utilities.
Purchased and interchange power expense increased 6.4% in 1984 and 2.8% in 1983. The 1984 increase is the result of the purchase of an affiliated company's share of the generation of the Rockport Plant Unit No.
1 which began producing test energy in September 1984 and was placed in commercial operation on December 10, 1984. This purchase was partially offset by de-creased interchange transactions with other AEP Sys-tem companies and other utilities. The 1983 increase largely reflects increased purchases from nonaffiliated utilities and decreased interchange transactions with other AEP System companies.
Total operating expenses increased 14.5% in 1984 compared to an 8.1% increase during 1983. The 1984 increase was primarily due to increases in fuel expense and other operation expenses.
Fuel expense increased by 20.4% mostly because ofa higher average cost offuel and increased internal generation. Other operation ex-penses increased 32.2% primarily as a result of the refueling and general maintenance at the Company's nuclear plant as well as the completion and placing in commercial operation ofRockport Plant Unit No. 1. In 1983 Federal income taxes increased 85.8% due largely to an increase in pre-tax book income and fuel expense increased 11.9% as a result of increased generation levels. Future fuel expenses willbe affected by gener-ation levels, contractual agreements between the coal industry and the.United Mine Workers ofAmerica and the possibility of yet more stringent environmental re-strictions on burning certain types ofcoal. Whether or not future increases in fuel costs willadversely affect earnings willdepend on the Company's continued abil-ity to recover such costs promptly in the face ofefforts by certain consumer groups and others to delay or reduce rate increases and to eliminate or reduce the extent of coverage of fuel-adjustment clauses.
Construction and Financing Program Expenditures for the Company's construction pro-
INDIANA& MICHIGANELECTRIC COMPANy AND SUBSIDIARIES gram over the three-year period 1985-1987 are esti-mated to be approximately
$692 million. Substantial additional expenditures may be required if existing generating plants require modification or additional facilities to comply with future environmental quality standards.
See "Environmental Matters" in Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. The construction program is reviewed continuously and revised from time to time in response to revised projections of load growth and changes in the cost and availability of capital. These reviews have resulted in extending construction schedules ofa number ofprojects with the objective of reducing the level ofannual construction expenditures.
However, deferrals of construction projects may have an adverse effect on the quality ofthe Company's serv-ice to its customers in the future, and any resulting reductions in current construction costs will,in the long run, be at least partially offset by general inflationary trends as well as possible cancellation charges. In addi-tion, when the completion date of a project under con-struction is substantially delayed, it becomes more ex-pensive, both because ofthe foregoing factors and be-
.cause certain costs, principally financing costs, con-tinue to accrue until the facilityis placed in commercial operation.
It is estimated that 76% ofthe Company's projected construction expenditures for 1985-1987 will be fi-nanced with internally generated funds. The additional amounts needed, in excess ofother available funds, will have to be raised externally, as in the past, through sales of securities and investments in the Company's common equity by AEP. The Company initially fi-nances current construction expenditures in excess of available internally generated and other funds by issu-ing unsecured short-term debt (commercial paper and bank loans) and then periodically reduces short-term debt with the proceeds of sales of long-term debt se-curities and preferred stock and withinvestments in the Company's common equity by AEP.
The amounts ofshort-term debt which the Company may issue are limited by regulatory restrictions under the Public UtilityHolding Company Actof 1935 and by restrictions in its charter and in certain debt instru-ments. At December 31, 1984, the Company had re-ceived authorizations from the Securities and Ex-change Commission to issue a total of approximately
$ 135 millionofshort-term debt. Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contains informa-tion on the Company's short-term bank lines ofcredit.
Bank lines of credit may be withdrawn at any time by the banks extending them, and in most cases the banks require the maintenance of compensating deposit bal-ance'r the payment of fees in lieu of deposits.
In order for the Company to issue additional long-term debt and preferred stock, it is necessary for it to comply with earnings-coverage requirements con-tained in its mortgage bond and debenture indentures and charter. In order to issue additional long-term debt (except to refund maturing long-term debt), the Com-pany must have pre-tax earnings equal to at least twice the annual interest charges on long-term debt, giving effect to the issuance ofthe new debt, for a period of 12 consecutive months within the 15 months immediately preceding the date ofthe new issue. To issue additional preferred stock, the Company must have after-tax gross income at least equal to one and one-half times annual interest charges and preferred dividends, giving effect to the issuance ofthe new preferred stock, for the same period. These provisions do not prevent certain types of pollution-control revenue bond financings by public bodies on behalf of the Company, but the levels of coverage under them may affect the cost and marketa-bilityof such bonds. At December 31, 1984, the cover-ages of the Company under these provisions were at least 2.12 for long-term debt and 1.69 for preferred stock.
In view ofthese restrictions on the issuance of addi-tional debt securities and preferred stock, the Company believes that it will be possible to meet the capital requirements of its construction program only if the Company receives rate increases over the next several years sufficient to meet the earnings levels required to issue the necessary amounts oflong-term debt and pre-ferred stock and to provide an appropriate return on new equity investment.
Net Income and Dividends Consolidated net income before preferred dividend requirements increased by 1.7% in 1984 and 15.6% in 1983. The total proportion ofallowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC) reflected in net income was 82.1% (66.0% net of income taxes) in 1984 and 85.2% (68.8% net of income taxes) in 1983. AFUDC does not represent cash income or a reduction in actual interest expense, but is an accounting convention per-mitted by regulatory systems ofaccounts. AFUDCrep-resents the net cost of borrowed funds used for con-struction and a reasonable rate ofreturn on other funds when so used. Such amounts are capitalized as a cost of construction projects with a concurrent credit to'the Income Statement. The amount capitalized is added to the cost ofconstruction projects and generally included in the plant investment base for setting rates and recov-ered through depreciation charges included in rates after the project is placed in commercial operation.
Eff'ects of Inflation In recent years inflation has had an effect on the Company's consolidated
- revenues, expenses and net income that is not readily evident in conventional finan-cial statements.
For additional information on the ef-fects ofinflation, refer to Note 12 of the Notes to Con-solidated Financial Statements, which presents a con-solidated statement of income for 1984, adjusted for effects of inflation, and a comparison of selected sup-plementary data for a five-year period, similarly ad-justed.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
- 1. Slgnlflicant Accounting Policies:
The common stock of the Company is wholly owned by American Electric Power Company, Inc. (AEP).
The accounting and rates ofthe Company are subject in certain respects to the requirements of state regula-tory bodies and in certain respects to the requirements of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).-
The consolidated financial statements include the ac-counts of the Company and two wholly owned sub-sidiaries engaged in coal mining. Significant inter-company items have been eliminated in consolidation.
The consolidated financial statements have been pre-pared on the basis ofthe accounts which are maintained for FERC purposes.
Electric UtilityPlant; Other Property and Investments; Depreciation, Depletion and Atnortization Electric utilityplant is stated at original cost. Gener-ally, the plant of the Company is subject to first mortgage liens.
The Company capitalizes, as a construction cost, an allowance for funds used during construction, an item not representing cash income, which is defined in the applicable regulatory systems of accounts as the net cost ofborrowed funds used for construction purposes and a reasonable rate on other funds when so used. The composite rates used by the Company were 12.5% in 1984 and 1983 and 12.75% in 1982 applied on a semi-annual compound basis.
The Company provides for depreciation on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives ofthe property. The current provisions are determined largely with the use of functional composite rates as follows:
Functional Composite Class of Annual Property Rates Production:
Steam Nuclear 4.0%%uo Steam Fossil. fired 3.6%
Transmission 2.1%
Distribution 3.6%
General 2.8%
Depreciation, depletion and amortization of coal-mining property are provided in amounts estimated to be sufficient to amortize the costs ofthe related assets, less any estimated salvage (which is not significant),
over their useful lives and are calculated by use of the following methods:
Description Method Mining Structures and Straight-line method (original lives Equipment range from 3 to 32 years)
Coal Interests and Mine Units-of-production method Development Costs (based on estimated recoverable tonnages; current rate averages
$ 1.13 per ton)
Substantially all of the amount of the provisions for depreciation, depletion and amortization ofcoal-mining property is classified in the Consolidated Statements of Income as fuel for electric generation.
Operating expenses are charged with the costs of labor, materials, supervision and other costs incurred in maintaining the properties.
Property accounts are charged with costs of betterments and major replace-ments of property and the accumulated provisions for depreciation are charged with retirements, together with removal costs less salvage.
Other property and investments are generally stated at cost.
Income Taxes Deferred Federal income taxes are provided to the extent that such amounts are reflected in revenue levels. The Company normalizes the effect oftax reduc-tions resulting from investment tax credits utilized in connection with current Federal income tax accruals consistent with rate-making policies.
The Company's consolidated coal subsidiaries gen-erally use the flow-through method of accounting for investment tax credits and practice deferred tax ac-counting for the effects of certain timing differences.
Pension Plans The companies participate with other companies in the AEP System in a non-contributory trusteed plan to provide pensions for all their employees who are not participants in pension plans ofthe United Mine Work-ers of America (UMWA),subject to certain eligibility requirements.
Pension costs forthe years ended December 31, 1984, 1983 and 1982 were approximately
$2,713,000,
$3,162,000 and $3,057,000, respectively. The amounts cover the costs ofcurrently accruing benefits and amor-tization of, and interest on, unfunded prior-service costs, which are being amortized over 30 years. The companies make annual contributions to the plan equal to the amounts accrued for pension expense. In addi-tion to providing pension benefits, the companies pro-14
INDIANA&
CHIGANELECTRIC COMPANY AND S UBSIDIARIES vide certain health care benefits for retired employees.
Substantially all of the companies'mployees may be-come eligible for these benefits ifthey have completed 10 years of continuous service. The cost of retiree health care benefits is recognized as expense as paid. In 1984, these costs totaled $852,000.
Acomparison ofthe plan's accumulated benefits and net assets as of January 1, 1984, the date of the most recent actuarial study, is presented below:
January 1,
1984 1983 (in thousands)
Actuarial present value of accumulated plan benefits Vested Nonvested Blacl< Lung Benefits The coal-mining subsidiaries are liable under the Federal Coal Mine Health and Safety Actof 1969 (Act),
$54,976
$51,088 7,436 5,913
$62,412
$57,001 Net assets available for benefits......
$ 103,364
$88,400 The assumed rate of return used by the actuary in determining the actuarial present value of accrued benefits was 8't each valuation date.
The Company is of the opinion that comparing the actuarial value of accumulated plan benefits with net assets available for benefits, as in the above table, may tend to be misleading. The plan as required by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA)is being funded on an ongoing basis on the assumption that itwillbe in existence for many years to come. However, the statement of actuarial value of accumulated plan benefits as required by the Finan-cial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)is essen-tially a hypothetical plan termination calculation not taking into account future salary and wage increases or future service. Additionally, it should be recognized that net assets, which are at fair value, willfluctuate from time to time, which may create erroneous impres-sions of the status of the long-term funding process.
Under a contract with the UMWA, a subsidiary is required to make payments into two multi-employer pension plans based on coal production and hours worked. The cost of the plans was approximately
$ 1,120,000 in 1984, $713,000 in 1983 and $2,442,000 in 1982. As ofJune 30, 1984, the Company's actuary esti-mates, based on information that is available, that the subsidiary's share of the unfunded vested liabilities of the UMWApension plans approximates
$4,090,000.
as amended, to pay certain black lung benefits to eligi-ble present and former employees.
The subsidiaries provide self-insurance accruals sufficient to amortize the actuarially computed present and future liabilities for such benefits as a level percentage of pay over the future working lifetime of the employees, taking into account the remaining lifeofthe mines. Such provisions were approximately $ 139,000, $ 131,000 and $530,000 in 1984, 1983 and 1982, respectively. A Black Lung Bene-fits Trust is maintained under the Internal Revenue Code. As ofJanuary 1, 1984 (the latest valuation date),
the companies'ctuary estimates the unfunded actuari-al value of medical and liabilitybenefits under the Act, as well as comparable state legislation, was approxi-mately $ 1,080,000. The companies fund the actuarially determined liabilities at a level which currently approx-imates the recorded expense provisions.
Other The Company accrues unbilled revenues for electric service rendered subsequent to the last billing cycle through month-end.
Miscellaneous nonoperating income for the years ended December 31, 1984, 1983 and 1982 includes gains amounting to $474,000, $274,000 and $496,000, respec-tively, on certain long-term debt reacquired Debt discount or premium and debt expenses are being amortized over the lives ofthe related debt issues and the amortization thereof is included within miscel-laneous interest charges.
Operating revenues derived from a certain wholesale customer represent approximately 11% oftotal operat-ing revenues for 1984 and 1983 and 10'or 1982.
'ertain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
- 2. Rate Matters:,
The Public Service Commission ofIndiana approved a two-step rate increase of$48,500,000 and $23,000,000, respectively, for the Company. The first step, effective December 10, 1984, concurrent with the commercial operating date ofUnit No.

Based on the AFUDC rate in effect at De-15
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIALSTATEMENTS (Continued) cember 31, 1984, such deferred return amounts for the next two years would be approximately $39,394,000 and $30,625,000, respectively. Depreciation expense of
$ 10,957,000 and $8,624,000, respectively, will be de-ferred on the amounts excluded from rate base. The two-step rate increase further provided for amortiza-tion to cost ofservice of the deferred return and depre-ciation expense over a 30-year period.
The Company also filedwiththe FERC fora two-step increase in wholesale rates.
Settlement agreements were agreed to in principle in November 1984 for a total increase of $35,000,000, one half to be effective in Oc-tober 1984 and the other half effective in December 1984. As agreed by the parties, construction costs as-sociated with the Rockport Plant of $ 170,724,000 are not included in rate base, but the Company willaccrue a deferred return based on its current AFUDC rate and defer annual depreciation expense on such costs. Based on the AFUDC rate in effect at December 31, 1984, such deferred return amount would be approximately
$21,340,000 during 1985. Depreciation expense of
$5,936,000 will be deferred. These deferred amounts are expected to be recovered through amortization to cost of service in future periods.
On September 26, 1984, the Michigan Public Service Commission approved a two-step increase for the Company in response to a December 1983 request for approximately $27,600,000 annually. The first step of
$ 12,000,000 annually became effective with the com-mercial operation of Rockport Plant and the second step of $3,000,000 annually will become effective one year from the date of implementation of the first step.

INDIANA& MICHIGANELECTRIC COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
- 9. Commitments and Contingencies:
Construction The construction budget of the companies for the year 1985 is estimated at $232,000,000 and, in connec-tion therewith, commitments have been made.
AEP Generating Company (AEGCo), a subsidiary of AEP, organized in 1982, commenced in April 1982 to acquire a 35% interest in the Company's 2.6 million kilowatt capacity Rockport Plant. The total estimated cost ofthe Rockport Plant is $2.41 billion. It was antic-ipated that Kentucky Power Company (KEPCo) would also acquire a 15% interest in the Rockport Plant on a buy-in basis; however, in August 1984, the Kentucky Public Service Commission (KPSC) issued an order denying KEPCo's request to purchase a 15% ownership interest and revoked a March 1983 KPSC order in that regard. As a result, AEGCo has now acquired this 15%
ownership interest. In September 1984, the Company received approximately $ 174,000,000 from AEGCo in order to bring AEGCo's ownership interest in the Rockport Plant to 50%.
On August 2, 1984, UnitPower Agreements between AEGCo and the Company and AEGCo and KEPCo were filed with FERC. The Company Unit Power Agreement provides for the sale by AEGCo to the Company of the output of the Rockport Plant to which AEGCo is entitled. Pursuant to an agreement between the Company and KEPCo, and the KEPCo UnitPower Agreement, AEGCo willsell to KEPCo the output of Rockport equivalent in amount to that associated with KEPCo's intended 15% ownership interest. As a result, the Company willeffectively purchase 35% of the out-put ofthe Rockport Plant from AEGCo. The Company has also entered into an agreement with an unaffiliated utility to sell this 35% output of Unit No.
1 of the Rockport Plant fromJanuary 1, 1987 through December 31, 1999. The effective date for the Unit Power Agree-ments was December 10, 1984, the date ofcommercial operation of Unit No.
1 at the Rockport Plant. Several parties including the KPSC, have intervened and pro-tested the filingin the FERC proceeding. On October 1, 1984, FERC issued an order accepting the application for filingand permitting the proposed rates to become effective, subject to refund. Hearings concerning the UnitPower Agreements are scheduled to commence in May 1985.
Oliio Valley Electric Corporation AEP and Columbus and Southern Ohio Electric Company own 42.1% ofOhio Valley Electric Corpora-tion (OVHC). which supplies the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) with the power requirements oAts gase=
ous diffusion plant near Portsmouth, Ohio. The pro-ceeds from the sales of power by OVEC, aggregating
$290,000,000 in 1984, are designed to be sufficient for OVEC to meet its operating expenses and fixed costs, and to provide for a return on its equity capital. The Company, as a sponsoring company, is entitled to re-ceive from OVEC, and is obligated to pay for, the power not required by DOE in proportion to its power participation ratio, which was 11.2% in December 1984.
The DOE power agreement terminates in 1992.
Regulatory Matter The Federal Power Commission in 1975 commenced an investigation of, among other things, the rea-sonableness and prudence of the coal-purchasing policies and practices ofcertain System companies. In 1981, the FERC ordered a hearing on the issue of the System's prudence in continuing to procure Western coal from affiliated mines in the light of the possible availability of coal from other sources.
On January 9, 1985, certain System companies entered into a settle-ment agreement with the FERC staff, subject to ap-proval by appropriate regulatory agencies and other conditions, under which the FERC proceeding would be dismissed on the followingterms: (i) certain System companies would refund $21,000,000 ($17,693,000 by the Company) to wholesale customers which purchased energy during the period 1982-1984 produced using Western coal from affiliated mines; (ii)depending upon the dates ofregulatory approvals, certain System com-panies might refund an additional $437,500 per month from June 1, 1985 until the settlement agreement be-comes effective; (iii)recovery of the cost of Western coal in electric rates to wholesale customers would be limited by a cap related to prices of similar coal deliv-ered to certain unaAiliated electric utilities, and (iv) subject to the cap, the Company could, during a period not to exceed 12 years, include in the cost ofcoal up to
$75,000,000 to be used to amortize part ofits investment in the Western coal mines. In December 1984, the Company recorded provisions aggregating $ 11,336,000, net of taxes, to reQect certain terms of the settlement agreement. The Company is unable to determine when all necessary approvals ofthe settlement agreement will be received or whether itwillcomplete the amortization program.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIALSTATEMENTS (Continued)
L~ili ation In 1978, several retail customers of the Company commenced an action, individually and as representa-tives of an alleged class, in the U.S. District Court, alleging that the Company's lease of electric utilityas-sets from the City of Fort Wayne was in violation of Federal antitrust laws. The complaint sought to have the lease declared null and void, asked that the Com-pany be restrained from charging excessive prices for the purchase of electric power, sought treble damages in an unspecified amount in respect ofallegedly exces-sive charges to residents ofthe City ofFort Wayne and sought to restore the control ofthe electric utilityassets in question to the CityofFort Wayne. In May, June and July, 1979 the court granted in part and denied in part the Company's motion to dismiss or for summary judgment. The court dismissed plaintifFs allegations concerning abuse of a legally acquired monopoly but ruled that plaintiffs could continue to assert other theories ofviolation ofFederal antitrust laws. The case was tried in March 1982 and in May 1984, the court ruled in favor of the Company on all issues. This deci-sion was upheld upon appeal by the plaintiffs to the U.S. Court of Appeals.
The Company terminated its contract with Terre Haute Industries, Inc. (THI) on the grounds that THI was not meeting the schedule for the construction ofan electro-static precipitator at the Breed Plant. THIinsti-tuted a suit for breach ofcontract against the Company in an Indiana circuit court claiming damages in an un-specified amount. THI also named the American Elec-tric Power Service Corporation as a defendant and re-quested damages from it for interference with THI's contract with the Company and for libel. The defend-ants denied THI's complaint and the Company coun-terclaimed for damages in the amount of $6,801,000 which the Company claims it suffered as a result ofthe delay in the construction work. On February 20, 1981, the Company's motion to add an insurance company-surety as a defendant to the Company's counterclaim was granted. The insurance company-surety was later dismissed. Trial of this action was completed in De-cember 1982. In an order dated January 9, 1984, the court awarded compensatory and punitive damages to THI in the amounts of $4,934,000 and $ 12,000,000, re-spectively, exclusive of interest. As a result of that judgment, the Company recorded in 1983 a liability, including interest, on the Consolidated Balance Sheet for the compensatory damages. The Company and the Service Corporation are appealing the court decision.
Envirotunental Matters The companies are subject to regulation by Federal, state and local authorities with regard to air-and water-quality control and other environmental matters, and are subject to zoning and other regulation by local authorities. Although the cumulative, long-term effect of changing environmental requirements upon the companies cannot be estimated at present, compliance withsuch requirements may make it necessary, at costs which may be substantial, to retrofit existing facilities withadditional air-pollution-control equipment; to con-struct cooling towers or some other closed-cycle cool-ing systems; to undertake new measures in connection with the storage, transportation and disposal of by-products and wastes; to curtail or cease operations at
~existing facilities and to delay the commercial operation of, or make design changes with respect to, facilities under construction.
Legislative proposals are pending before the Con-gress which expressly seek to control acid deposition in the eastern portion ofthe United States. Ifany ofthese bills become law, stringent controls upon the emission of sulfur dioxide would be required at various existing Company generating plants. These controls would en-tail very substantial capital and operating costs which, in turn, could necessitate substantial rate increases by the Company. In addition, a number of states have commenced proceedings under the Clean AirAct seek-ing to control the emission of sulfur dioxide in certain midwestern states.
Nuclear Insurance The Price-Anderson Actlimits the public liabilityofa licensee of a nuclear plant to $560 million for a single nuclear incident. When the 80th nuclear power reactor went into operation on November 15, 1982, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's indemnity obligation was eliminated. Now, as each new reactor is licensed to operate, the $560 million limitincreases by another $5 million. The current level is $620,000,000. The Com-pany has insurance covering its two-unit Cook Nuclear Plant in the maximum available amount of$ 160 million, and the balance of $460 millionis covered by a manda-tory program of deferred premiums which would be
- assessed, after a nuclear incident, against all owners of nuclear reactors. In the event of a nuclear incident the Company could be assessed
$5 millionper incident for each ofits two generating units (subject to a maximum of $ 10 million per reactor in any year in the event of more than one incident).
22
INDIANA& MICHIGANELECTRIC COMPANY AND S UBSIDIARIES The Company also has property insurance for dam-age to the Cook Plant facilities in the amount of $ 1.06 billion. The primary layer of $500 million is provided through nuclear insurance pools. The excess coverage above $500 millionis provided through insurance pools
($85 million), and Nuclear Electric Insurance Limited (NEIL). NEIL's excess property insurance program provides $475 million in coverage. The maximum as-sessment under this program could be $9,347,000 (sev-en and one-half times the annual premium on a 100%
coverage basis).
NEIL's extra-expense program provides insurance to cover extra costs of replacement power resulting from a prolonged accidental outage of a nuclear unit.
The Company's policy insures against such increased costs up to $2.5 million per week (starting 26 weeks after the outage) forone year and $ 1.25 millionper week for the second year; or 80% ofthose amounts per unitif both units are down for the same reason. The Company would be subject to a retrospective premium of up to
$ 13,270,000 (five times annual premium) if NEIL's losses exceed its accumulated funds.
Disposal ofSpent Nuclear Fuel and Nuclear Decommissioning The Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 establishes Federal responsibility for the permanent disposal of spent nuclear fuel. Disposal costs are paid by fees as-sessed against owners of nuclear plants and deposited into the Nuclear Waste Fund created by the Act. For the disposal ofnuclear fuel consumed after April6, 1983 by the Company's Cook Nuclear Plant, the Company must pay to the fund a fee ofone millper kilowatthour, which the Company is currently recovering from its customers. In June 1983, the Company entered into a contract with DOE for the disposal of spent nuclear fuel. Under terms of the contract the Company must pay to the U.S. Treasury a fee estimated at approxi-mately $71,964,000, exclusive of interest, for the dis-posal of nuclear fuel consumed prior to April7, 1983.
Approval by DOE of the calculation of the fee is cur-rently pending.
The Company has deferred the
$71,964,000 on its balance sheet pending recovery through the rate-making process.
The Company has received regulatory approval in certain of its jurisdic-tions for the recovery of a portion of this amount and has begun to reduce the amount deferred as it is being recovered.
Withrespect to decommissioning, the Public Service Commission of Indiana held in an order dated De-cember 22, 1982 that "a reasonable estimate for the costs ofdecommissioning the (Cook Plant), when mea-sured in 1982 dollars, should be set at $155,000,000." In certain of its jurisdictions, the Company is currently recovering, through inclusion in its current charges to customers, a portion ofthe future costs associated with decommissioning.
Funds recovered through the rate-making process for disposal ofspent nuclear fuel consumed priorto April7, 1983 and for nuclear decommissioning generally have been deposited in either external trust funds or internal special funds for the future payment ofsuch costs. The Company willattempt to obtain in all its jurisdictions regulatory approval forthe recovery ofthe remainder of such future costs.

The companies, as part of their operations, lease property, plant and equipment under leases ranging in length from 1 to 35 years. Most ofthe leases require the companies to pay related property taxes, maintenance costs and other costs of operation. The companies ex-pect that in the normal course of business, leases will generally be renewed or replaced by other leases. The majority of the various rentals are included in leases having purchase options or renewal options for sub-stantially all of the economic lives of the properties.
An accounting standard now requires the companies to capitalize leases beginning in 1984 for all capital leases entered into after December 31, 1982 and all earlier leases beginning in 1987. This standard requires the companies to record rental expense in a manner consistent with rate-making treatment, therefore there is no effect on the Consolidated Statements ofIncome.

Current cost amounts reflect the changes in specific prices of property, plant and equipment from the date such assets were acquired to the present. The current cost of property, plant and equipment represents the approximate cost of replacing such resources and in-cludes utility plant in service, construction work in progress, land, land rights and other property and in-vestments.

$ 161,000 73,000 (231,000) 3,000 70,000 73,000 (a) As prescribed by the FASB, the items in the Consolidated Statement of Income that have been adjusted are depreciation, depletion and amortization (including portions classiTied as fuel for electric generation and other income and deductions).
Depreciation, depletion and amortization charges were computed by applying current accrual rates to thc various plant accounts (production, transmission, distribution, general and miscellaneous) after adjusting such accounts for the effects of changing prices.
(b) Including the a<tjustment to net recoverable cost, the income from operations on a current cost basis would have been $71,000,000.
(c) At December 31, 1984, current cost of property, plant and equipment net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization was
$5,820,000,000 while historical cost or net cost recoverable through dcprcciation, depletion and amortization was $2,881,000,000.
(d) The adjustment to net recoverable cost ofproperty, plant and equipment (as expressed in terms ofinflation-adjusted cost) to historical cost recognizes that the rate-making process limits the Company to recovery of the historical cost of the subject assets.
(e) To reflect properly the economics ofrate regulation in the Consolidated Statement ofIncome Adjusted for Effects ofChanging prices, the adjustment to net recoverable cost should be offset by the gain that results from the decline in purchasing power ofthe net amounts owed by the Company. During a period ofinflation, holders ofmonetary assets such as cash and receivables suffer a loss ofgeneral purcliasing power while holders ofmonetary liabilities, generally long-term debt, experience a gain (because debt willbe repaid in dollars having less purchasing power).
The Company's gain from the decline in purchasing power ofits net amounts owed is primarilyattributable to the substantial amount ofdebt and cumulative preferred stock subject to mandatory redemption which has been used to finance utilityplant.

'I Auditors'pinion Deloitte Has kins+Sells 155 East Broad Street Columbus. Ohio 43215 (514) 221-1000 Cable DEHANOS To the Shareowners and the Board of Directors of Indiana 4 Michigan Electric Company:
We have examined the. consolidated balance sheets of Indiana 5
Michigan Electric Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 1984 and 1983 and the related consolidated statements of income, retained earnings and sources and applications of funds for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1984.
Our examinations were made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and, accordingly, included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
In our report dated February 21, 1984, our opinion on the 1983 and 1982 consolidated financial statements was qualified as being subJect to the effects on the 1983 and 1982 consolidated financial statements of such adjustments, if any, as might have been required had the outcome of the uncertainty been known concerning the claim by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission staff that the Company paid excessive prices for coal from affiliated mines resulting in overcharges to customers which may have to be refunded.
As discussed in Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company recorded a
provision for refund in 1984 of $ 17,693,000 as agreed to in a settlement agreement with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
Accordingly, our present opinion on the 1983 and 1982 consolidated financial statements, as expressed herein, is different from that expressed in our previous report.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1984 and 1983 and the results of their operations and their sources and applications of funds for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
- 1984, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.
