MICRON TECHNOLOGY, INC.'S RESPONSES TO IDAHO IRRIGATION PUMPERS ASSOCIATION, INC.'S FIRST SET OF DATA REQUESTS -2- NOVEMBER 25, 2024 MICRON TECHNOLOGY, INC. CASE IPC-E-24-07 IIPA'S FIRST SET OF DATA REQUESTS TO MICRON TECHNOLOGY, INC. REQUEST IIPA 1-1: Please refer to the Direct Testimony of James A. Leyko page 18, lines 3 to 6. a. Please provide all data and workpapers used to calculate the increased revenue of $5.5 million. b. Please refer to IPC's response to IIPA Data Request 2-24 part f. Does Micron's recommended revenue adjustment account for the differences in growth rates and revenue per kWh across schedules? If no, why not? If yes,please explain how this is accounted for. MICRON RESPONSE TO IIPA 1-1: a. Please see attached workpapers supporting Mr. Leyko's direct testimony and exhibits: • Attachment 1 (Confidential Leyko Direct Workpaper 1_IPC-E-24-07) • Attachment 2 (Public Leyko Direct Workpaper 1_IPC-E-24-07) • Attachment 3 (Confidential Leyko Direct Workpaper 2_IPC-E-24-07) Support for the $5.5 million adjustment can be found on tab `Exhibit No. 608' of Attachment 1, Leyko Direct Workpaper 1_IPC-E-24-07. b. Mr. Leyko's recommended adjustment does not account for the differences in growth rates between rate classes but Mr. Leyko would not object to an adjustment that does account for the difference on growth rates and revenue per kWh across schedules. Mr. Leyko's adjustment was designed to closely mirror IPC's own MICRON TECHNOLOGY, INC.'S RESPONSES TO IDAHO IRRIGATION PUMPERS ASSOCIATION, INC.'S FIRST SET OF DATA REQUESTS -3- NOVEMBER 25, 2024 revenue adjustment and only includes two corrections to IPC's adjustment. First, Mr. Leyko updated the 2024 forecast of Idaho sales to reflect actual sales between January and June 2024 (along with a corresponding forecasted increase to July to December sales). Second, he updated the mill rate to include more than capital- related items and O&M labor. Stated another way, if the Commission decides to adopt IPC's revenue adjustment methodology, then Mr. Leyko's adjustment is a corrected version of that methodology. Sponsoring Witnesses: James A.
