Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition~, The following are the more significant factors bearing on the financial condition of Indiana&Michigan Elec-tric Company and its subsidiaries as reflected in the consolidated results of operations.
LAWRENCE R. BRUNKE (a)                                     GERALD P. MALONEY P. F. CARL, JR. (b)                                         RICHARD C. MENGE RICHARD     E. DISBROW                                   J. F. STARK JOHN   E. DOLAN                                           BEVERLY I. STEARS (d)
This discussion re-fers to the consolidated financial statements that fol-low.Operating Revenues and Expenses Consolidated operating revenues increased 7.3%in 1983 compared to a decrease of 0.3%in 1982.Kilowatt-hours sold increased 1.6%in 1983 compared with an 8.3%decrease in 1982.The primary reason for the increase in operating revenues was the receipt of additional rate relief coupled with an improvement in kwh sales during the second half of 1983.The improve-ment in energy sales reflects the hot summer and colder weather in late fall and early winter as well as the gradual recovery of the economy in the Company's service area.The 1982 decrease in sales of electric energy and operating revenues was attributable to the depressed economic activity and mild weather experi-enced throughout most'of the year in the service area.Revenues from retail customers (residential, com-mercial and industrial) were up" 10.6%in 1983 with a corresponding increase in kwh sales of 2.7%while in 1982 these revenues rose 7.2%on a 2.1%decline in kwh sales.The increase in revenues was due to higher rates which went into effect during 1983.The increase in kwh sales includes a 6.5%increase in sales to industrial customers as opposed to an 8.0%decrease last year, reflecting the changes in the economy in the Company's service area.Wholesale revenues for 1983 increased by 5.5%fol-lowing a 9.6%decrease in 1982.Kwh sales to wholesale customers increased 0.6%in 1983 compared to a 13.7%decrease in the preceding year.The increased revenues.were mainly the result of rate increases put into effect during 1983 and a significant rebound in energy sales to other utilities during the last half of the year.The re-bound in wholesale sales to municipalities, electric cooperatives and other electric utilities is expected to continue into 1984;however, much will depend upon the extent of improvements in the economy as well as weather patterns.Purchased and interchange power expense increased 2.8%in 1983 and 11.2%in 1982.The 1983 increase largely reflects increased purchases from other utilities and decreased interchange transactions to obtain power from other AEP System companies.
WILLIAMN. D'ONOFRIO (C)                                     W. S. WHITE, JR.
The 1982 increase was mainly the result of an increase in purchases from other utilities.
Officers W. S. WHITE, JR.                                             ROBERT S. HUNTER      (0 WILLIAME. OLSON (d)
Normally, during periods of peak de-mand that exceed the available generating capacity, the Company is able to meet its wholesale customers'e-quirements by purchasing power from neighboring utilities for resale to others because of AEP's powerful interconnection and transmission capacity.Total operating expenses increased 8.1%in 1983 compared to a 0.1%increase in 1982.The increase in 1983 was primarily due to increases in Federal income taxes and fuel expenses.Federal income taxes in-creased 85.8%in 1983 due largely to an increase in pre-tax book income.Fuel expenses increased 11.9%%uo in 1983 as a result of increased generation levels and a change in fuel mix.In 1982 fuel expenses decreased 18.8%as a result of decreased kwh sales and a change in fuel mix.Future fuel expenses will be affected by gen-eration levels, contractual agreements between the coal industry and the United Mine Workers of America and the possibility of yet more stringent environmental re-strictions on burning certain types of coal.Whether or not future increases in fuel costs will adversely affect earnings will depend on the Company's continued abil-ity to recover such costs promptly in the face of efforts 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-gram over the three-year period 1984-1986 are esti-mated to be approximately

$597 million.Substantial additional expenditures may be required if existing generating plants require modification or additional facilities to comply with future environmental quality standards.

In recent years, the construc-tion program has been affected by substantial increases in construction costs and the expense of obtaining financing for the program due to high costs of capital.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.In recent years, these reviews have resulted in extending construction schedules of a number of projects with the objective of reducing the level of annual construction expenditures.

However, deferrals of construction projects may have an adverse effect on the quality of the Company's service to its customers in the future, and any resulting reductions in INDIANA P.I~i.HIGAN ELECTRIC COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES current construction costs will, in the long run, be at least partially offset by general inflationary trends as well as possible cancellation charges.In addition, when the completion date of a project under construction is substantially delayed, it becomes more expensive, both because of the foregoing factors and because certain costs, principally financing costs, continue to accrue until the facility is placed in commercial operation.

It is estimated that all of the Company's projected construction expenditures for 1984-1986 will be fi-nanced with internally generated funds.If any addi-tional amounts are needed they will be raised exter-nally, as in the past, through sales of securities and investments in the Company's common equity by AEP.The Company initially finances current construction expenditures in excess of available internally generated funds by issuing unsecured short-term debt (commer-cial paper and bank loans)and then periodically reduces short-term debt with the proceeds of sales of long-term debt securities and preferred stock and with invest-ments in the Company's common equity by AEP.The amounts of short-term debt which the Company may issue are limited by regulatory restrictions under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 and by restrictions in its charter and in certain debt instru-ments.At December 31, 1983, the Company had re-ceived authorizations from the Securities and Ex-change Commission to issue a total of approximately
Stark, Beverly I. Stcars, and Allen If. Stuhhnann whose principal occupations nrc as ofJiccrs or employees of Indiana & hficlrigan Electric Company.
$135 million of short-term debt.Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contains informa-tion on the Company's short-term bank lines of credit.Bank lines of credit may be withdrawn at any time by the banks extending them, and in most cases the banks require either the maintenance of compensating deposit balances or 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 of the new debt, for a period of 12 consecutive months within the 15 months immediately preceding the date of the 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 of the 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-bility of such bonds.At December 31, 1983, the cover-ages of the Company under these provisions were at least 2.01 for long-term debt and 1.64 for preferred stock.In view of these 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 of long-term debt and pre-ferred stock and to provide an appropriate return on new equity investment.

See Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements regarding a recent prehearing rate order in which the Public Service Commission of Indiana found that the second step por-tion of a proposed rate request was not properly pre-sented.The second step was to coincide with the De-cember 1984 commercial operation date of the Com-pany's Rockport Plant Unit 1.This finding raises a question as to the effect on the Company's net income and financial condition unless other alternatives under consideration are implemented.
 
Net Income and Dividends Consolidated net income before preferred dividend requirements increased in 1983 by 15.6%and in 1982 by 17.1%.These changes in net income were accompanied by a decrease in the total proportion of allowance for funds used during construction (AFUDC)reflected in net income, 85%in 1983 and 92%in 1982.AFUDC does not represent cash income or a reduction in actual inter-est expense, but is an accounting convention permitted by regulatory systems of accounts.AFUDC represents the net.cost of borrowed funds used for construction and a reasonable rate of return on other funds when so used.Such amounts are capitalized as a cost of con-struction projects with a concurrent credit to the In-come Statement.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization charges were computed by applying current accrual rates to the various plant accounts (production, transmission, distribution, general and miscellaneous) after adjusting such accounts for the effects of changing prices.

would (b) Including the reduction to net recoverable cost, the income (loss) from operations on a constant dollar basis and current cost basis

. have been $ 2,000,000 and $ (23,000,000), respectively.

(c) At December 31, 1983, current cost of property, plant and equipment net of accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortization was

$ 5,803,000,000 while historical cost or net cost recoverable through depreciation, depletion and amortization was $ 2,908,000,000.

(d) The reduction to net recoverable cost of property, plant and equipment (as expressed in terms of inflation.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 of rate regulation in the Consolidated Statement of Income Adjusted for Effects of Changing Prices, the reduction to net recoverable cost should be offset by the gain that results from the decline in purchasing power of the net amounts'owed by the Company. During a period of inflation, holders of monetary assets such as cash and receivables suffer a loss of general purchasing power while holders of monetary 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 of its net amounts owed is primarily attributable to the substantial amount of debt and cumulative preferred stock subject to mandatory redemption which has been used to finance utility plant.

INDIANA& M HIGAN ELECTRIC COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES Auditors'pinion Dsloitte Has kiss+sells 155 East Broad Street Columbus. Ohio 43215 (614) 221 ~ 1000 Cable OEHANOS To the Shareowners and Board of Directors of Indiana and Michigan Electric Company:

We have examined the consolidated balance sheets of Indiana S Michigan Electric Company and'its subsidiaries as of December 31, 1983 and 1982 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, 1983. 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.

As discussed in the third paragraph under the caption "Litigation" in Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission staff has claimed that the Company has paid excessive prices, for coal from affiliated mines resulting in overcharges to customers which may have to be refunded'he Company estimates that the alleged overcharges would aggregate at least $ 163,000,000, inclusive of interest and certain other adjustments at December 31, 1983.

The Company cannot assess the ultimate outcome of this proceeding, if any, on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In our opinion, subject to the effects on the consolidated financial statements of such adjustments, if any, as might have been required had the outcome of the uncertainty referred to in the preceding paragraph been known, such consolidated financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries at December 31, 1983 and 1982 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, 1983, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis.
