The regulatory process limits the amount of The current cost of property, plant and equipment, depreciation expense included in the Company's which includes land, land rights, intangible plant, revenue allowance and limits utility plant in rate base property he!d for future use, construction work in to original cost. Such amounts produce cash flows progress and rnclear fuelin process, represents the which are inadequate to replace such property in the estimated cost of replacing existing plant assets and future or preserve the purchasing power of common was primarily determined by indexing surviving plant equity capital previously invested. While this effect is by the Handy Whitman Index of Public Utihty partially mitigated by the benefit derived from holding Construction Costs. The current cost of coal long term debt, the Company has a net purchasing properties was determined by indexing coal reserves power loss which is experienced by the common and machinery and equipment by the Marshall-shareholder and can only be overcome as a result of Stevens Mining and Milling index. The current year's adequate rate relief. However, the Company expects provision for depreciation and depletion on the that it will be able to establish rates which will recover constant do!!ar and current cost amounts of property, the increased costs of new plant when such costs are plant and equipment was determined by applying the incurred. Company's depreciation and depletion rates to the indexed plant amounts. Fuelinventories, the cost of fuel used in generation and purchased power have not been restated from their historical cost in nominal dollars. Rate regulation limits the recovery of fuel and purchased power costs through the operation of adjustment clauses or adjustments in basic rate schedules to actual costs. For this reason fuelinventories are effectively monetary assets. As prescribed in Statement 33, income taxes were not adjusted. The regulatory process limits the Company to the recovery of the historical cost of service in its rates. Therefore, any excess of the value of plant under constant doff am m co rent cost must be reduced to the net rc:Nc= cnt, v.N:h is histo ica? cost. The amount of this excess that accumulated as a result of inflation in the current year must be reduced to net recoverable cost. The Company, by hofding assets such as receivables, prepayments and inventory, suffers a loss i of purchasing power during periods ofinflation because the amount of cash received in the future for l these items will purchase less. Conversely, by owing monetary liabihties, primarily long-term debt, the Company benefits because the payment in the future will be made with nominal dollars having less purchasing power. The Company has significant I amounts of long term debt outstanding which will be paid back in do!!ars having less purchasing power j and, therefore, for purposec of these calculations, has a net gain from holding monetary liabilities in excess of moneta y assets. 31
