  1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
  
   Organization 
  
      American Electric Power Service Corporation (the Company 
   or AEPSC) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of American Electric 
   Power Company, Inc. (AEP Co., Inc.), a public utility holding
   company.  The Company provides certain managerial and profess-
   ional services including administrative and engineering ser-
   vices to the affiliated companies in the American Electric
   Power (AEP) System and periodically to unaffiliated companies.
  
   Regulation and Basis of Accounting 
  
             As a subsidiary of AEP Co., Inc., AEPSC is subject to 
   regulation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) 
   under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 (1935 
   Act).
  
      The Company's accounting conforms to the Uniform System of
   Accounts for Mutual and Subsidiary Service Companies 
   prescribed by the SEC pursuant to the 1935 Act.  As a cost-
   based rate-regulated entity, AEPSC's financial statements 
   reflect the actions of the regulators that result in the
   recognition of revenues and expenses in different time periods
   than enterprises that are not rate regulated.  In accordance 
   with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 
   71, Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation
   (SFAS 71), regulatory assets and liabilities are recorded
   to reflect the economic effects of regulation.  Regulatory

   Use of Estimates 
  
      The preparation of these financial statements in conformity
   with generally accepted accounting principles requires in 
   certain instances the use of management's estimates.  Actual
   results could differ from those estimates.
  
   Income and Expenses 
  
             Services rendered to both affiliated and unaffiliated com-
   panies are provided at cost.  The charges for services include 
   no compensation for the use of equity capital, all of which is
   furnished by AEP Co., Inc.  The costs of the services are 
   determined on a direct charge basis to the extent practicable 
   and on reasonable bases of proration for indirect costs.
  
   Income Taxes
  
      The Company follows the liability method of accounting for 
   income taxes as prescribed by SFAS 109, Accounting for Income 
   Taxes.  Under the liability method, deferred income 
   taxes are provided for all temporary differences between book 
   cost and tax basis of assets and liabilities which will result 
   in a future tax consequence.  Where the flow-through method of
   accounting for temporary differences is reflected in billings,
   regulatory assets and liabilities are recorded in accordance
   with SFAS 71.

  2.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
  
      The Company is involved in a number of legal proceedings 
   and claims.  While management is unable to predict the outcome 
   of litigation, any potential liability which may result 
   therefrom would be recoverable from its affiliated companies.           
  
  3.  BENEFIT PLANS:
  
      AEPSC participates in the AEP System pension plan, a 
   trusteed, noncontributory defined benefit plan covering all
   employees meeting eligibility requirements.  Benefits are 
   based on service years and compensation levels.  Pension 
   costs are allocated by first charging each System company 
   with its service cost and then allocating the remaining 
   pension cost in proportion to its share of the projected 
   benefit obligation.  The funding policy is to make annual 
   trust fund contributions equal to the net periodic pension 
   cost up to the maximum amount deductible for federal income 
   taxes, but not less than the minimum required contribution 
   in accordance with the Employee Retirement Income Security 
   Act of 1974.
  
      Net pension plan costs for the years ended December 31, 
   1995 and 1994 were $2.6 million and $4.7 million, 
   respectively.
  
      An employee savings plan is offered which allows    partici-
   pants to contribute up to 17% of their salaries into various
   investment alternatives, including AEP Co., Inc. common stock.
   An employer matching contribution, equaling one-half of the 
   employees' contribution to the plan up to a maximum of 3% of
   the employees' base salary, is invested in AEP Co., Inc. 
   common stock.  The Company's annual contribution totaled $2.9   
   million in 1995 and $2.8 million in 1994.

             regarding the financial statements or any account 
             thereof.  Furnish particulars as to any significant
             contingent assets or liabilities existing at the
                 end of the year.  Notes relating to financial 
             statements shown elsewhere in this report may be 
             indicated here by reference.
                                                                   
  
      Postretirement benefits other than pensions (OPEB) are
   provided for retired employees under an AEP System other post-
   retirement benefit plan.  Substantially all employees are 
   eligible for health care and life insurance if they have at 
   least 10 service years and are age 55 or older when employment
   terminates.
  
      SFAS 106, Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits
   Other Than Pensions, was adopted in January 1993 for the 
   Company's aggregate OPEB liability.  SFAS 106 requires the 
   accrual during the employee's service years of the present 
   value liability for OPEB costs.  Costs for the accumulated 
   postretirement benefits earned and not recognized at adoption 
   are being recognized, in accordance with SFAS 106, as a trans-
   ition obligation over 20 years.  OPEB costs are determined by 
   the application of AEP System actuarial assumptions to each 
   company's employee complement.  The Company's annual accrued 
   OPEB costs for employees and retirees required by SFAS 106, 
   which includes the recognition of one-twentieth of the prior 
   service transition obligation, were $7.3 million in 1995 and 
   $7.4 million in 1994.
  
      As a result of SFAS 106, a Voluntary Employees Beneficiary    
   Association (VEBA) trust fund for OPEB benefits was established
   and a corporate owned life insurance (COLI) program was imple-
   mented to lower the net OPEB costs.  The insurance policies 
   have a substantial cash surrender value which is recorded, net 
   of equally substantial policy loans, in investments.  Legisla-
   tion was passed by Congress which would have significantly 
   reduced the tax benefits of a COLI program in the future.  The
   legislation containing this provision was vetoed by the 
   President.  At this time it is uncertain if legislation repeal-
   ing certain tax benefits for COLI programs will be enacted.  If
   enacted this legislation would negatively impact the effective-
   ness of the COLI program as a funding and cost reduction mech-
   anism.  The amount contributed to the VEBA trust fund is the 
   difference between the pay-as-you-go OPEB cost and the SFAS 106
   total OPEB cost.  This contribution was funded by amounts 
   recovered from affiliates plus net earnings from the COLI pro-
   gram.  The Company contributed $4.5 million in 1995 and $5.0 
   million in 1994 to the VEBA trust fund.

  INSTRUCTIONS:  The space below is provided for important notes 
             regarding the financial statements or any account 
             thereof.  Furnish particulars as to any significant

  4.  FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
  
      The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, special
   deposits - restricted funds, accounts receivable and accounts 
   payable approximates fair value because of the short-term
   maturities of these instruments.  At December 31, 1995 and 
   1994 the fair value of long-term debt was $103 million and
   $91 million, respectively, based on quoted market prices for
   similar issues and current interest rates offered for debt of
   the same remaining maturities.  The carrying amount for long-
   term debt was $81 million and $86 million at December 31, 1995
   and 1994, respectively.
  
  5.  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
  
      The details of federal income taxes as reported are as 
   follows:
                                            Year Ended December 31, 
                                            1995              1994

      Federal income taxes as reported are different than the pre-
   tax book loss multiplied by the statutory federal income tax 
   rate predominantly due to non-taxable income related to 
   corporate owned life insurance and amortization of deferred 
   investment tax credits.

      The Company joins in the filing of a consolidated federal 
   income tax return with its affiliates in the AEP System.  The
   allocation of the AEP System's current consolidated federal 
   income tax to the System companies is in accordance with SEC 
   rules under the 1935 Act.  These rules permit the allocation 
   of the benefit of current tax losses utilized to the System 
   companies giving rise to them in determining their current 
   tax expense.  The tax loss of the System parent company, AEP 
   Co., Inc., is allocated to its subsidiaries with taxable 
   income.  With the exception of the loss of the parent company,
   the method of allocation approximates a separate return result 
   for each company in the consolidated group.
  
  6.  LEASES:
  
      Leases of structures, improvements, office furniture and 
   miscellaneous equipment are for periods up to 30 years and 
   require payments of related property taxes, maintenance and 
   operating costs.  The majority of the leases have purchase or
   renewal options and will be renewed or replaced by other 
   leases.

   ANNUAL STATEMENT OF COMPENSATION FOR USE OF CAPITAL BILLED

April 26, 1996

Statement of the Amount of Interest on Borrowed
Capital and Compensation for the Use of Capital
Billed by American Electric Power Service Corporation
(AEPSC) for the Year Ended December 31, 1995

G. R. Knorr - Columbus

All AEP System Accounting Managers


In accordance with Instruction 01-12 of the Uniform System of Accounts 
prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission for Mutual Service 
Companies and Subsidiary Service Companies under the Public Utility 
Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended, this is an annual statement of 
the amount of interest on borrowed capital and compensation for the use 
of capital billed by AEPSC for the year ended December 31, 1995.

Exhibit A, attached hereto, shows your portion of the interest cost on 
capital borrowed for working capital requirements.  The method used to 
allocate the cost to each System company was based on the ratio of your 
portion of total direct and indirect charges billed during the prior year 
of 1994.  The amount shown for each company equals the total charges 
billed under Work Order No. 1200 during 1995.

In addition to the interest charges incurred for working capital, AEPSC 
billed to all clients, as an indirect cost applicable to administrative 
services, a total amount of $7,780,673.00 of interest cost and debt 
expenses related to the mortgage notes on its headquarters building 
located in Columbus, Ohio.

All interest charges incurred by AEPSC during 1995 were for borrowings 
with unaffiliated companies.  No amount was billed by AEPSC during 1995 
as compensation for the use of equity capital, all of which is furnished 
to AEPSC by its parent, American Electric Power Company, Inc.
