However, continuing cost longer nuclear generating unit refueling and reduction efforts will be necessary to help offset the maintenance outages in 1990 than in 1989. Federal effect of inflation Also, the Company is seeking income taxes decreased pomanly because of a PUCO approval to accrue nuclear plant depreciation at decrease in prelax operating income These decreases a level which is more closely abgned with the amount in operating expenses were partially offset by an currently being recovered in rates by switching to the increase in taxes, other than federal income taxes, straight kne method The Company also will seek resulting from higher property and gross receipts approval to accrue post in-service interest carrying taxes, and by lower nuclear operating expense charges and defer depreciation charges for facihties deferrals for Perry Unit 1 and Beaver Valley Unit 2 that are in service but not yet recognized in rates pursuant to the January 1989 PUCO rate order.

The Company joins in the fihng of a conschdated federalincome tax return with its affihated companies The method of tax allocation approximates a separate return result for each company.

In 1988, a change was made in accounting for income taxes from the deferred ta the habihty method. This change did not impact net income as the additional deferred taxes recorded were off set by a regulatory asset on the Balance Sheet Federal income tax expense adjustments in 1990, associated with previously deferred investment tax credits relating to the 1988 write ott of nuclear plant investment, decreased the net tax provision related to nonoperating income by $18.810.000.

The favorable resolution of an issue concerning the appropnate year to recognize a property tax deduction resulted in an adjustment which reduced federal income tax expense in 1990 by $3,911,000 ($2.168,000 in the fourth quarter).

For tax purposes, net operating loss (NOL) carryiorwards of approximately $28,101.000, $21,426.000 and

$187,019,000 were generated in 1990,1989 and 1988, respectively. The NOL carryforwards are available to reduce future taxable income and will expire in 2003 through 2005 The 34% tax effect of the NOLs generated in 1990

($9.554.000) and 1989 ($7,285,000) is included in the above tabic as a reduction to deferred federalincome tax rotating to accelerated depreciation and amortization The 34% tax effect of the NOL generated in 1988

($f 3.586 000) is included in the above table as reductions to deferred federal income tax relating to accelerated depreciatbn and amortization ($24,210,000) and to deferred federal income tax charged to operating expenses

($2,545,000) and to nonoperating income ($36,831.000). Future utihzation of these tax NOL carryforwa.Js would result in recording the related deferred taxes Approximately $20.161,000 cf unused general business tax credits are available to reduce futuie tax obhgations.

The unused credits expire in varying amounts in 2001 through 2005 Utikzation of these unused credits is hmited by provisions of the 19% Tax Act and the % vel of future taxable income to which such credits may be apphed.

The 1986 Tax Act provides for an AMT credit to be used to reduce the regular tax to the AMT level should the regular tax exceed the AMT An AMT credit of $5,480,000 was gercrated in 1990 An AMT credit offset for the consohdated tax return of 121,291,000 was generated in 1989 17
