Utility Plant: Utility plant is stated at historical costs of constructen. These costs include taxes, payro!! related ccsts including pensions and other innge benefits, and an allcwance for funds used during constructon.

Allowance For Funds Used During Construction (AFDC): AFDC includes the net cost of borrowed funds used for construction purpcses and a reasonab!e rate upon other (equity) funds.

AFDC is charged to constructon work in progress during the pened of construction. When a con-struction project is placed in service. the related AFDC becomes a part of the onginal cost of the completed plant which is used to estaolish rates for utility charges under established regulatcry rate practices. (See Note 7 for discussion of plant in service not included in rate base.) The rates used to compute AFDC. compounded semi-annually, averaged 10.4%

< requirements of the Employeet Retirement income Secunty Act of 1974 (ERISA), the 4' ~ Company is oblegated to fund Ine benefits of the plans. The Company's policy.is to fund - '

pension costs accrued. Liability for past service costs is not significant. The annual costs .

^ ' of the plans were $7.3 million in 1980. $6.5 mittion in 1979 and $4.7 mi!! ion in 1978.

The costs in 1978 nere abnormally low due to a lengthy strike, during which contributions were not made to the plan for bargaining unit employees. Other factors causing the 1979 and 1980 increases were increased contnbutions because of salary and age changes and to

- = meet ERISA requirements.- -

_ At October 1.1980, the date of the most recent actuarial repcrt, the actuarial present values

. of vested and non-vested accumulated plan benefits were $102 miriion and $3 million, respectively, and the plan net assets avadable for benefits were $102 million. A 6% rate of return was assumed in determining the actuarial present values of vested and non-vested accumulated plan benefits. -

~ Row nue and Expense Recognition: The Company utilizes cyc!e billing and in years prior to 1979 recognized revenues bd!ed to its customers when meters were read. Costs of service .

rendered. including fuel consumed, are recognized as incurred. Due to increases in sales, rate leve!s and costs, the effect on operating results from the difference in timing between the current recognition of costs and the delayed reporting of revenues increased under such method of accounting in order to match more closely revenues and expenses and because the Company expected to change and did change in October,1979. from bi-momly meter reading for residential and small commercial customers to monthly rneter reading for all customers, the Company changed its method of accounting effective as of January 1.1979, to accrue the amount of revenue for sa:es unbilled at the end of each reccrting pencd. The effect of the change after considering the effect of the change from bi-monthly to monthly billing, net of income taxes, was to increase 1979 reported net income by $8.4 million (50.76 per average share) of wnich a net increase of $1.2 million ($0.11 per average share) was reflected in operat:ons and $7.2 mi!Uon ($0.65 per average share) represents the cumulative effect of the change as of January 1.1979. The effect on 1978 coerating results, assuming this change were to be applied retroactively, would not be significant.

Prior to 1979, fuel and purchased power costs in excess of those reflected in base rates were recovered subsequent to the period in which such excess costs were incurred through fuel adjustment clauses. Orders from the MPSC and the State Corporation Commission of the ,

State of Kansas (KCC) providec lor revisions in the Company's fuel adjustment schedules and new fuel adjustment revenue recognition procedures were implemented in the first j quarter of 1979 to record currently the revenue to be collected under such clauses. Because - .

of a ruling of the Missouri Supreme Court, the Company terminated its fuel adjustment clause $'

for Missouri retail customers effective October 1.1979c income Taxes:The Company generally normalizes the effects of the use of acce!erated tax depreciation methods. Deferred income taxes have been provided for the differences between back and tax depreciation except for the effect of accelerated depreciation on

- Missouri property acquired prior to 1972. Accelerated depreciation methods include the use of the Asset Depreciation Range system, which permits snorter lives and current deduction Lof removal cost and repair allowance. Taxes deferred on property additions for certain prior years are now being restored to income as the timing differences reverse.

In accordance with rate orders issued by the MPSC and KCC, the tax effect of the interest component of AFDC is being normalized and the related accumulated deferred income taxes are being cred:ted to construction work in progress rather than being shown as

~ deferred income taxes on the balance sheet.

Prior to March 31,1979, the tax effects of currently deducting certain costs which were capitalized on the books were not normalized. Effective Apni 1.1979, the Company was authorized by the MPSC to normahze the tax effect of pension costs payroll taxes and property taxestwhich are capitalized on the books but deducted currently for income tax purposes and to flow through the effect of the current deduction of removal costs for income taxes..These changes in income tax accounting procedures resulted from rate proceedings which also adjusted revenues accordingly. The procedures in Kansas remain unchanged.

At December 31,1979, the Company had a net tax operating loss carry. forward of approximately $11.7 millicn with an estimated tax benefit of $5.8 million which was used to reduce the 1979 provision for deferred income taxes. All of such amount of deferred income

- taxes was restored during 1980 as the net tax operating loss was utilized and eliminated.

, ,a acceptance charge. At December 31,1980, $40 million at 20.9% was outstanding ($50 -

7 million at January 31,1981).

m r.~ , , .

1^ iThe company expects these agreements to be extended.

- Scheduled Maturities:The aggregate amounts of matunties during the next five

years of long-term debt outstanding at December 31,1980. (exclusive of the other loan age ements) is $25 million in 1981, $35 million in 1983 and $16 mdlion in 1985.
6. Dividend ' Retained eamings at December 31,1980, included $11 million which was not available Restrictions . for cash dividends under the provisions of the Indenture of Mortgage.
7. Rate Matters - In an Order entered June 19,1980, the MPSC found that the Company's fatan Unit was not then needed to provide safe and adequate service to the Company's Missouri rate payers, s . and denied inclusion in the Company's rate base of the $164 milhon Missouri junsdictional .

' portion of the Company's investment in such unit. The Company has initated judicial reviews of the MPSC Order.The Company cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings.

"The MPSC Order also authorized the Company (for Missouri jurisdictional purposes) to continue to accrue AFDC on the latan Unit. However, because of the questionable propriety of recording such AFDC amounts for financial statement purposes, the Company has not done so at this time and is following the normal accounting practice. At such time as the

. MPSC issues a rate order permitting the latan Unit to be included in rate base, the Company will conform its 1980 financial statements for any AFDC amounts a!! owed in the rate order.

AFDC~ accruals on the fatan Unit were terminated and depreciation accruals were commenced, eacn effectve as of May 5,1980, the date the f atan Unit was declared commercially operable by the Company.

'On May 28,1980, the' KCC authorized the Company to place ir'to effect on June 1,1980,

, interim rates designed to increase its annual Kansas revenues by abcut $24.5 million, subject to refund pend ng action by the KCC on new permanent rate schedules. The Company cannot predict whether, when or to what extent the KCC may perm:t such revenues to become permanent. However. in the opinion cf the Ccmpany's General Counsel, it is not ,

L  ; probable that the Company will be required to make refunds of a material amount of 4 J revenues collected on an interim basis if the KCC applies the same pnnciples in its action on l

. 'new permanent rate schedules as it has applied in the Company's past rate proceedings. 4

, . xincluded in 1980 revenues is an estimated $17.2 million of such interim revenues which are l subject to refund.

8. Wolf Creek Unit; ' The Company and Kansas Gas and Electric Company (KG&E) each presently own 50% of r the 1.150-MW Wolf Creek Unit being constructed in Coffey County, Kansas. However, the l  ; E comparies have agreed to sell to Kansas Electric Power Cooperative. Inc. (KEPCo), an

from each company) ownership interest in the Unit. Under the agreement, the sale is subject f ta (i) receipt of' regulatory approvals and (ii) KEPCo's permanent financing. On October 30,

) 1980, the KCCissued its Order granting a certficate and authorizing KEPCo to purchase the

~

.17% interest in the Wolf Creek Unit. However, the Order contains numerous conditions which l

Late unacceptable to the parties, and, unless these conditions are substantially modified or

. Q ehminated, the sale is, in the opinion of the Company, imoossible. The Company, KG&E and AlKEPCo initiated judicial review of the KCC Order in the Distnct Court of Shawnee County, Kansas, on grounds that the Order was unlawful and unreasonable. The Legislature of the State of Kansasis considenng a oill which would remove from KCC jurisdiction any authonty it may have had over the proposed sa!e to KEPCo. The Company cannot predict the out-j come of such review or legislation or whether or when such sale may occur. KEPCo has i

7 made advance payments to the Company which at December 31,1980, amounted to $84.5 r million and as of February 17,1981, amounted to $72 miflion which, together with interest

. accrued by the Company on the advance, would be applied against the purchase pnce

. obligations of KEPCo upon closing of the sale. At December 31,1980, such interest amounted to $8 md! ion. If the sale is not closed by April 30,1981, the Company would be required to repay (through use of available credit lines and the proceeds from the sales of

, secunties or borrowings from other sources) to KEPCo, by July 31,1981, the advance pay-

. O rnents made by KEPCo to KCPL with additional interest thereon at a rate established in the 26 _
