Long Term Drivers
- Purchased Power costs are projected to increase
- Capital and equipment costs are projected to
increase
- Labor, service, material, and other direct costs, are
projected to increase
- Reserves need to be funded at levels to cover
foreseeable risks
- Revenues need to be sufficient to cover costs in
compliance with bond requirements, and good business practices
- Increasing costs affect cash-on-hand
April 19, 2010 Draft Budget Workshop 10
Revenue requirements increasing
KEY DRIVERS Power and transmission costs are projected to increase as new resources are obtained, and new load requirements are fulfilled. Capital and equipment costs are projected to increase as infrastructure ages, and new technology requirements are implemented Labor, service, material, and
- ther direct costs, are
projected to increase as economic conditions improve. Reserves are needed to cover foreseeable risks. Bond requirements and good financial practices.
April 19, 2010 Draft Budget Workshop 11
Example of Cost Increases
In 10 years, total costs are about $14.8 million (28%) greater than today, with power cost being almost 70% of the increase
Cost Category $000 Increase from FY 2011 to FY 2020 % of Increase FY 2011 to FY 2020 Power Costs 10,099 $ 68.05% Labor 2,240 $ 15.09% Debt Service 1,499 $ 10.10% Capital and Equipment 634 $ 4.27% Material and Services 334 $ 2.25% Other 35 $ 0.24% Total 14,841 $ 100.00%

- General Fund charter transfer is subordinate to COP’s
– FY 2010 transfer is set at $2.8 million per Board resolution
- Annual combined General Fund transfer and PILOT / ROI total
about 8% of operating revenues (Peer group utilities are at ~ 6% of
- perating revenues for General Fund transfers)

with final principal maturity in 2030
- Taxable variable rate COP is fixed rate through an
interest rate swap through July 1, 2010
– This issue is an ARS with an MBIA policy – Cost to AMP is currently 150 basis points over the synthetic fixed rate
