Audit Finding No. 4<br />

Response:<br />

AUF has no response to Audit Finding No. 4.<br />

Audit Finding No. 5<br />

Response:<br />

Although AUF agrees with the theory of Audit Finding No. 5. This could be true for any other<br />

item, including the many other deferred assets and/or liabilities. This could also be true for<br />

depreciation and amortization.<br />

The concept of a test year period is to reflect a normal operating year. If an agency andor utility<br />

begins to pick and chose certain items to include and not include as part of its analysis, then the<br />

concept of regulatory finality is threatened.<br />

There could also be many other items, either on the balance sheet, or in operating expenses that<br />

may occur post test year. Again, which items are chosen to include andor exclude would<br />

become next to impossible to keep track of.<br />

AUF does not believe that one particular items should be singled out and continued to be<br />

amortized, when there are a myriad of other items the same could be applied to.
