ANNUAL REPORT OF ENTERGY SERVICES, INC.
FOR YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994
SCHEDULE XIV - NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Organization and System of Accounts
Entergy Services, Inc. (Entergy Services), a wholly
owned subsidiary of Entergy Corporation (Entergy), was
authorized to conduct business as a service company for
Entergy and Subsidiaries (the System) by order of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) dated March,
1963 and made permanent March 1965. Entergy Services
is organized along functional lines to accomplish its
purpose of providing management, administrative, and
technical services to the System companies. Such
services are priced so that Entergy Services operates
on a break-even basis.
On December 31, 1993 Entergy merged with Gulf States
Utilities Company (Gulf States). As a result of the
merger, Entergy Services began providing services to
Gulf States in 1994 and a number of Gulf States
employees became Entergy Services employees.
The accounts of Entergy Services are maintained in
accordance with the Public Utility Holding Company Act
of 1935, as administered by the SEC, which has adopted
a system of accounts consistent with the system of
accounts prescribed by the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission.
B. Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis at
rates based on the estimated service lives of the
various classes of property. Amortization of leasehold
improvements is computed on the straight-line basis
over the lease term.
C. Income Taxes
Entergy Services joins in the filing of a consolidated
Federal income tax return with Entergy Corporation and
subsidiaries. The income tax effects of Entergy
Services taxable income or loss are allocated to the
other System Companies under an intra-System income tax
allocation agreement. Although Entergy Services is not
allocated Federal income taxes, Entergy Services is
allocated the benefits of investment tax credits.
Investment tax credits are deferred and amortized based
upon the average useful life of the related property,
beginning with the year utilized on the consolidated
tax return.
Entergy Services files a consolidated Arkansas state income
tax return with certain other System companies; a combined
Mississippi state income tax return with other System
companies: and, a separate company Louisiana state income
tax return.
Effective January 1, 1993, Entergy Services adopted the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes."
This new standard requires that deferred income taxes be
recorded for all temporary differences and carryforwards,
and that deferred tax balances be based on enacted tax laws
at tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary
differences reverse. There was no significant impact from
the adoption of SFAS 109 on the financial statements of
Entergy Services.
Entergy Services' effective income tax rate was 100% in
1994, 1993 and 1992, compared to the current Federal
statutory income tax rate of 35%. The primary reason for
the difference between the effective and statutory income
tax rates is that the Company collects revenue adequate to fund
its income tax expense.
D. Fair Value Disclosures
Entergy Services considers the carrying amounts of financial
instruments classified as current assets and liabilities to
be a reasonable estimate of their fair value because of the
short maturity of these instruments. Determination of the
fair value of other financial instruments is not considered
to be practicable due to their nature.
2. NOTES PAYABLE
Entergy Services has a line of credit with Entergy which was
for $90 million through November 30, 1994. Effective
December 1, 1994, this line of credit was increased to $150
million and extended through November 30, 1996. This line
of credit was not used during 1994, 1993 or 1992.
At December 31, 1994, Entergy Services had a total of $65
million in notes payable to a number of regional banks.
These notes, which are guaranteed by Entergy, mature no
later than May 31, 1995 and had an average effective
interest rate of 7.1% at December 31, 1994.
Entergy Services participates with certain other System
companies in a System Money Pool (Money Pool) arrangement
whereby those companies with available funds may invest in
the Money Pool while other System companies, except Entergy
Corporation, may borrow, on a short-term basis, from the
Money Pool, thereby reducing the System's dependence on
external short-term borrowings. As authorized by the SEC,
the borrowings by Entergy Services from the Money Pool may
not exceed the amount of the unused portion of the line of
credit discussed above.
The borrowings and applicable interest rates under the Money
Pool arrangement were as follows (in thousands):
1994 1993 1992
Average borrowing $52,258 $41,084 $52,875
Maximum borrowing at month end 71,239 42,768 58,510
Average effective interest rate:
During the year 4.0% 3.2% 3.7%
At end of year 6.1% 3.3% 3.8%
At December 31, 1994, Entergy Services had a $62.3 million
temporary cash investment position in the Money Pool which was
considered to be a cash equivalent since the maturity is
less than three months.
3. POSTRETIREMENT AND POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
Pension Plan
Entergy Services has a defined benefit pension plan covering
substantially all of its employees. The pension plan is
noncontributory and provides pension benefits that are based
on employees' credited service and average compensation,
generally during the last five years before retirement.
Entergy Services funds pension costs in accordance with
contribution guidelines established by the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The assets of
the plan consist primarily of common and preferred stocks,
fixed income securities, interest in a money market fund and
insurance contracts.
Entergy Services' total 1994, 1993, and 1992 allocated
pension cost, including amounts capitalized, included the
following components (in thousands):
1994 1993 1992
Service cost-benefits earned during the period $5,314 $3,079 $2,522
Interest cost on the projected benefit obligation 5,948 4,229 3,777
Actual return on plan assets 410 (4,219) (2,265)
Net amortization and deferral (2,504) 1,678 (46)

Net pension cost $9,168 $4,767 $3,988

The funded status of the pension plan, with respect to
Entergy Services, at December 31, 1994 and 1993 was as
follows (in thousands):
1994 1993
Actuarial present value of accumulated pension plan

Unrecognized net loss (gain) 15,374 12,939
------- --------
$(9,620) $(12,658)
======= ========
The significant actuarial assumptions used included a
weighted average discount rate of 8.5% for 1994, 7.5% for
1993 and 8.25% for 1992, and a weighted average rate of
increase in future compensation levels of 5.1% for valuing
the projected benefit obligation for 1994 and 5.6% for 1993
and 1992. An assumed expected long-term rate of return on
plan assets of 8.5% was used for 1994, 1993 and 1992.
Transition assets are being amortized over the average
remaining service period of active participants.
Entergy Services has adopted the Supplemental Retirement
Plan of Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries and the Post-
Retirement Plan of Entergy Corporation and Subsidiaries for
certain executive officers. Certain participants in these
plans receive benefits based on a percentage of their
salaries. The actuarially projected obligation for these
plans, which is not included in the pension plan tables
above, was initially recorded during 1992 and is
periodically updated. These plans are unfunded and benefits
are paid from general Company assets. At December 31, 1994
and 1993, the recorded liability for these plans was
approximately $15.7 million and $10.2 million, respectively.
The discount rates used in the determination of these
liabilities were 8.25% in 1994 and 7.5% in 1993.
Entergy Services' total recorded pension liability
(including the funded plan covering substantially all
employees and the supplemental unfunded plans described
above) at December 31, 1994 and 1993, was $25.3 million and
$22.8 million, respectively.
Other Postretirement Benefits
Entergy Services also provides certain health care and life
insurance benefits for retired employees. Substantially all
employees may become eligible for these benefits if they
reach retirement age while still working for Entergy
Services. The cost of providing these benefits, recorded on
a cash basis, to retirees in 1992 was approximately
$400,000.
Effective January 1, 1993, Entergy Services adopted SFAS
106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits
Other Than Pensions". The new standard required a change
from a cash method to an accrual method in accounting for
these benefits. At January 1, 1993, the actuarially
determined accumulated postretirement benefit obligation
earned by retirees and active employees was estimated to be
approximately $14.1 million. This obligation is being
amortized as expense over a 20-year period beginning in
1993. Entergy Services is recovering the increased cost of
other postretirement benefits due to the adoption of SFAS
106 under the Services Agreements with the System companies.
Total postretirement benefit costs of Entergy Services for
1994 and 1993, including amounts capitalized, included the
following components (in thousands):
1994 1993
Service cost - benefits earned during the period $1,850 $1,069
Interest cost on accumulated postretirement
benefit obligation (APBO) 1,259 1,141
Return on plan assets 0 0
Net amortization and deferral 794 704
------ ------
Net periodic postretirement benefit cost $3,903 $2,914
====== ======
The funded status of Entergy Services' postretirement plans
as of December 31,1994 and 1993, was (in thousands):
1994 1993
Accumulated postretirement benefit obligation:
Retirees $ 5,084 $ 5,337
Other fully eligible participants 4,628 3,712
Other active participants 7,288 9,529
------- -------
17,000 18,578
Plan assets at fair value 0 0
------- -------
Plan assets less than APBO (17,000) (18,578)

Unrecognized net loss (gain) (1,574) 2,778
------- -------
Accrued postretirement benefit liability $(5,917) $(2,439)
======= =======
The assumed health care cost trend rate used in measuring
Entergy Services' APBO was 9.4% for 1995, gradually decreasing
each successive year until it reaches 5.0% in 2011. A one
percentage increase in the assumed health care cost trend
rate for each year would have increased the APBO of Entergy
Services as of December 31, 1994 by 8.4% and the sum of the
service cost and interest cost by approximately 12.4%. The
assumed discount rates and rates of increase in future
compensation used in determining the APBO were 8.5% in 1994
and 7.5% in 1993 and 5.1% in 1994 and 5.5% in 1993,
respectively.
4. LEASES
The Company records the assets and related obligations
applicable to capital leases. The assets and liabilities
associated with the capital lease at December 31, 1994 and
1993 are presented below (in thousands):
Assets:
1994 1993

------ ------
Total $3,716 $5,523
====== ======
At December 31, 1994, Entergy Services had capital and
noncancelable operating leases with minimum lease payments
as follow (in thousands):
Capital Operating
Lease Leases
1995 $3,037 $ 17,236
1996 1,519 14,163
1997 11,272
1998 10,217
1999 10,134
For years thereafter 83,822
------ --------
Minimum rental commitments 4,556 $146,844
========
Less amount representing interest 840
------
Present value of net minimum lease payments $3,716
======
Rental expense for capital and operating leases amounted to
approximately $33.4 million, $18.0 million, and $20.0
million for 1994, 1993 and 1992 respectively. The increase
in expense in 1994 from 1993 was principally due to
increased building rentals. Entergy has guaranteed Entergy
Services' obligations under the capital leases.
5. BULK POWER SYSTEM OPERATIONS
Entergy Services acts as agent for the coordination of joint
bulk power system operations among the System operating
companies. All amounts receivable from the power purchasers
or payable to the power suppliers as a result of the bulk
power transactions are recorded in Entergy Services'
accounts receivable or accounts payable balances, and have
no effect on Entergy Services' income or expenses.
6. SALE AND LEASEBACK OF COMPUTER CENTER
During 1985, Entergy Services entered into an agreement for
the sale and leaseback of the Computer Center land and
building. The related lease has been classified as an
operating lease for accounting purposes and, accordingly,
the net book value of the building has been removed from the
balance sheet. A gain on the sale of approximately $3.5
million was deferred and is being amortized over the primary
term of the lease which is twenty-five years with the option
to extend the lease for six additional consecutive terms of
five years each. Estimated future minimum rental
commitments related to this lease are included in Note 4 -
"Leases."
7. CANCELLED LEASE PAYABLE
Effective January 1, 1991, Entergy Services entered into a
sublease agreement for a leased office building. Entergy
Services recorded a loss on its 1991 financial statements of
$6.2 million primarily for the difference between the
remaining lease payments and the expected future rentals to
have been received. In 1992, Entergy Services canceled the
lease agreement and replaced it with a new agreement with
the new owners of the building. In conjunction with the
lease cancellation, Entergy Services received a payment of
$4.7 million from the sublessor in settlement of its
obligation under the sublease, and an additional loss of
$1.3 million was recorded, primarily for the difference
between the amount received from the sublessor and the
expected future sublease rental amount utilized in the
initial computation of the loss. The new arrangement
provides for monthly payments of $171,000 through September
1997. The System companies are being billed their appropriate
share of such payments.
The noncurrent liability represents the amounts payable
under the new arrangement, net of approximately $2.1 million
for the current portion included in Accounts Payable. The
noncurrent receivable from associated companies represents
amounts not yet collected from billing of the losses.
8. OTHER DEFERRED CREDITS
Other Deferred Credits (Account #253) consist of the following:
1994 1993
Unamortized gain on the sale of Computer Center
(Note 6) $2,294 $2,457

The labor costs of Entergy Services personnel, performing work for SFI, are
recorded by the Service Request process similar to all other costs incurred by
Entergy Services. Various Service Requests have been established in Entergy
