Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements

The following Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 1997 reflects
the completed transaction by Mission Energy Development Australia Pty Ltd, a
subsidiary of Edison Mission Energy (Registrant), to acquire the State
Government of Victoria's (State) 49% interest in the Loy Yang B Power Station
(Loy Yang B) which occurred on May 8, 1997. Edison Mission Energy Australia
Limited, a subsidiary of the Registrant, (together with other wholly owned
affiliates of the Registrant) initially acquired 51% of Loy Yang B from the
State in December 1992.  In connection with the 1992 acquisition, the State
Electricity Commission of Victoria entered into a 30 year power purchase
agreement with the Registrant to acquire its share of the plant output.  The
Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet represents the Consolidated Balance Sheet
to be included in the Registrant's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended June 30, 1997.  The Unaudited Pro Forma Statement of Operations for the
six months ended June 30, 1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996 reflect
the acquisition as if it had been effected at the beginning of each of the
periods presented.  The acquisition is recorded under the purchase method of
accounting. 

Consideration for the State's 49% interest consisted of (1) a cash payment of
approximately $64 million (84 million Australian dollars), (2) termination of
the existing power purchase agreement and other related agreements and (3)
entering into a series of vesting contracts and hedges with the State resulting
in a total transaction value of approximately $686 million  (900 million
Australian dollars) based on a preliminary valuation using discounted cash
flows.  The Registrant has no reason to believe that the final valuation will
change materially and anticipates such valuation will be final in the fourth
quarter of 1997.  The excess of the purchase price, including tax effects, over
the carrying value of the net assets acquired was allocated to property, plant
and equipment.  Acquisition costs totaled approximately $9 million. 

On May 8, 1997, the Registrant also closed financing of $964 million (1.265
billion Australian dollars), the proceeds of which were used to repay Loy Yang
B's existing debt facilities of $713 million (935.5 million Australian dollars)
with the balance used to finance the acquisition, return funds to various
affiliates of the Registrant and pay deferred financing costs totaling
approximately $6 million.  An extraordinary loss of $13.1 million (net of income
tax benefit of $8.6 million) was incurred as a result of early extinguishment of
the existing debt facilities attributable to unamortized debt issue costs.  The
Unaudited Pro Forma Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30,
1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996 do not consider such extraordinary
loss.   

The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and upon certain
assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. 
The unaudited pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of the
results that actually would have occurred if the acquisition had been made on
the dates indicated, or which may be expected to occur in the future.  

The unaudited pro forma information should be read in conjunction with the notes
thereto and the audited financial statements of the Registrant as set forth in
its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996 filed on
March 31, 1997, which includes operating results of Loy Yang B, as well as the
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 1997 to be filed on
or before August 14, 1997.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(A) Pro forma decrease in electric revenues resulting from termination of
existing power purchase agreement and entering into a series of vesting
contracts and hedges with the State Government of Victoria. 

(B) Pro forma decrease in fuel expense resulting from entering into a new 50-
year agreement with the owner of Loy Yang A and the Loy Yang Mine for the supply
of brown coal.

(C) Pro forma increase in operation and maintenance services expense resulting
from grid connection fees as the project now trades directly into the Pool and
the elimination of the operator fee credit directly related to the 49% ownership
interest.  

(D) Pro forma decrease in depreciation expense of $8.3 million and $12.5 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996,
respectively,  resulting from a change in the estimated useful lives of Loy Yang
B property, plant and equipment, partially offset from the step up in fixed
asset values resulting from the acquisition and related deferred tax accounting.
The change in the estimated useful lives resulted from the termination of the
existing power purchase agreement which had provided for an approximate 30-year
useful life to currently a 50-year useful life based on Loy Yang B's projected
economic life.

(E) To decrease interest expense related to the lower effective interest rate of
7.96% from 10.71% resulting from the financing, partially offset by an increase
in net borrowings.

(F) Elimination of minority interest expense directly attributable to Loy Yang
B.

(G) Change income tax expense as a result of pro forma adjustments which affect
taxable income.
