NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
INSTRUCTIONS: The space below is provided for important notes
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.
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 profes-
sional 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 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) 71,
"Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation"
(SFAS 71), the financial statements include regulatory assets
(deferred expenses) and regulatory liabilities (deferred
revenues) recorded in accordance with regulatory actions to
match expenses and revenues in cost-based rates. Regulatory
assets are expected to be recovered in future periods through
billings to affiliated companies and regulatory liabilities
are expected to reduce future billings. The Company has
reviewed all the evidence currently available and concluded
that it continues to meet the requirements to apply SFAS 71.
Among other things application of SFAS 71 requires that the
Company's billing rates be cost-based regulated. In the event
a portion of the Company's business were to no longer meet

those requirements, net regulatory assets would have to be
written off for that portion of the business and long-term
assets would have to be tested for possible impairment.
Recognized regulatory assets and liabilities are comprised
of the following:
December 31,
1999 1998
Regulatory Assets: (In Thousands)
Unamortized Loss on Reacquired
Debt............................ $3,796 $4,445

Affiliates for Income
Tax Benefits.................... $7,231 $7,291

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.

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

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 the 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,
(that is, deferred taxes are not included in the cost of
determining regulated billings for services), deferred income
taxes are recorded and related regulatory assets and liabilities
are established in accordance with SFAS 71.
Investment Tax Credits
Investment tax credits have been accounted for under the
flow-through method unless they have been deferred in accord-
ance with regulatory treatment. Investment tax credits that
have been deferred are being amortized over the life of the
related investment.
Property
Property is stated at original cost. Land, structures and
structural improvements are generally subject to first
mortgage liens. Depreciation is provided on a straight-
line basis over the estimated useful lives of the property.
Investments
Investments include the cash surrender value of corporate
owned life insurance (COLI) policies net of policy loans and
interest accrued on the loans plus payments of disputed taxes
and interest related to COLI (see Note 2).
Debt
With SEC staff approval, gains and losses on reacquired debt
are deferred and amortized over the term of the replacement
debt.

Debt issuance expenses are amortized over the term
of the related debt, with the amortization included in
interest charges.
Comprehensive Income
There were no material differences between net income
and comprehensive income.
2. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
Litigation
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) agents auditing the
AEP System's consolidated federal income tax returns
requested a ruling from their National Office that certain
interest deductions claimed by the Company relating to
AEP's COLI program should not be allowed. As a result of
a suit filed by the Company in US District Court (discussed
below) this request for ruling was withdrawn by the IRS
agents. Adjustments have been or will be proposed by the
IRS disallowing COLI interest deductions for taxable years
1991-96. A disallowance of the COLI interest deductions
through December 31, 1999 would increase expenses by $38
million which would be billed to affiliated companies.
The Company made payments of taxes and interest
attributable to COLI interest deductions for taxable years
1991-98 to avoid the potential assessment by the IRS of
any additional above market rate interest on the contested
amount. The payments to the IRS are included on the balance
sheet in investments pending the resolution of this matter.
The Company is seeking refunds through litigation of all
amounts paid plus interest.
In order to resolve this issue, the Company filed suit
against the United States in the US District Court for
the Southern District of Ohio in March 1998. In 1999 a U.S.
Tax Court judge decided in the Winn-Dixie Stores v. Commis-
sioner case that a corporate taxpayer's COLI interest
deductions should be disallowed. Notwithstanding the

decision in Winn-Dixie, management has made no provision for
any possible adverse impact from this matter because it
believes, and has been advised by outside counsel, that it
has a meritorious position and will vigorously pursue its
lawsuit. In the event the resolution of this matter is
unfavorable, the disallowance of taxes and interest attribut-
able to COLI would be recovered through billings to affiliated
companies.
The Company is involved in a number of other legal pro-
ceedings and claims. While management is unable to predict
the outcome of litigation, any potential liability which
may result therefrom would be recoverable from affiliated
companies.
3. BENEFIT PLANS:
The Company and its subsidiaries participate in the AEP
System qualified pension plan, a defined benefit plan which
covers all employees. Net pension costs for the years
ended December 31, 1999 and 1998 were $3.6 million and $6.3
million, respectively.
Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions are provided
for retired employees for medical and death benefits under
an AEP System plan. The annual accrued costs were $13.8
million in 1999 and $9.7 million in 1998.
A defined contribution employee savings plan required that
the Company make contributions to this plan totaling $6.2
million in 1999 and $5.5 million in 1998.
4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable and
accounts payable approximates fair value because of the
short-term maturities of these instruments. At December 31,
1999 and 1998 the fair value of long-term debt, excluding
advances from Parent Company, was $69 million and $68 million,
respectively, based on quoted market prices for similar issues
and the current interest rates offered for debt of the same

remaining maturities. The carrying amount for long-term debt,
excluding advances from Parent Company, was $60 million and
$65 million at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
The Company is subject to market risk as a result of
changes in interest rates primarily due to short-term and
long-term borrowings used to fund its business operations.
The debt portfolio has fixed and variable interest rates
with terms from one day to nine years at December 31, 1999.
A near term change in interest rates should not materially
affect results of operations or financial position since
the Company would not expect to liquidate its entire debt
portfolio in a one year holding period.
5. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
The details of federal income taxes as reported are as
follows:
Year Ended December 31,
1999 1998

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.

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.
The AEP System has settled with the IRS all issues from
the audits of the consolidated federal income tax returns
for the years prior to 1991. Returns for the years 1991
through 1996 are presently being audited by the IRS. With
the exception of interest deductions related to AEP's
corporate owned life insurance program, which are discussed
under the heading, Litigation, in Note 2, management is not
aware of any issues for open tax years that upon final res-
olution are expected to have a material adverse effect on
results of operations.

ANNUAL STATEMENT OF COMPENSATION FOR USE OF CAPITAL BILLED
April 27, 2000
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, 1999
G. R. Knorr - Columbus
AEP System Accounting Managers and Corporate Planning and Budgeting
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, 1999.
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 the Total Annual Cost Ratio
based on the total direct and indirect charges billed during the prior
year of 1998. The amount shown for each company equals the total charges
billed under Work Order No. 1200 during 1999.
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 $5,911,101 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 1999 were for borrowings
with unaffiliated companies. No amount was billed by AEPSC during 1999
as compensation for the use of equity capital, all of which is furnished
to AEPSC by its parent, American Electric Power Company, Inc.
