IDAHO POWER COMPANY
NOTESTO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of December 31,2001
1.Property Plant and Equipment:
The cost of additions to utility plant in service represents the original cost of contracted
services,direct labor and material,allowance for funds used during construction and indirect
charges for engineering,supervision and similar overhead items.Maintenance and repairs ofpropertyandreplacementsandrenewalsofitemsdeterminedtobelessthanunitsofproperty
are expensed to operations.The Company records repair and maintenance costs associated
with planned major maintenance as these costs are incurred.For property replaced or
renewed the original cost plus removal cost less salvage is charged to accumulated provisionfordepreciationwhilethecostofrelatedreplacementsandrenewalsisaddedtoproperty,plant
and equipment.
2.Depreciation:
All utility plant is depreciated using the straight-line method at rates approved by regulatory
authorities.Annual depreciation provisions as a percent of average depreciable utility plant inserviceapproximates2.98 percent in 2001.
3.Revenues:
In order to match revenues with associated expenses,the Company accrues unbilled revenues
for electric services delivered to customers but not yet billed at month-end.
4.Cash and Cash Equivalents:
For purposes of reporting cash flows,cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and
highly liquid temporary investments with maturity dates at date of acquisition of three months or
less.
5.Requiation of Utility Operations:
The Company follows SFAS No.71,"Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types ofRegulations,"and its financial statements reflect the effects of the different rate making
principlesfollowed by the various jurisdictions regulating the Company.The economic effects of
regulation can result in regulated companies recording costs that have been or are expected to
be allowed in the ratemaking process in a period different from the period in which the cost
would be charged to expense by an unregulated enterprise.When this occurs,costs aredeferredasassetsinthebalancesheet(regulatory assets)and recorded as expenses in the
periods when those same amounts are reflected in rates.Additionally,regulatorscan impose
liabilities upon a regulated company for amounts previouslycollected from customers and for
amounts that are expected to be refunded to customers (regulatory liabilities).
6.Manaqement Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generallyacceptedintheUnitedStatesofAmerica,requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure ofcontingentassetsandliabilitiesatthedateofthefinancialstatementsandthereported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
7.Financinq:
On March 23,2000,the Company filed a $200 million shelf registration statement that could be
used for First Mortgage Bonds (including medium term notes),unsecured debt,or preferred
stock.On December 1,2000,the Company issued $80 million principal amount of Secured
Medium Term Notes,Series C,7.38%Series due 2007.Proceeds were used for the earlyredemptioninJanuary2001ofthe$75 million First Mortgage Bonds 9.50%Series due 2021.
On March 2,2001 the Company issued $120 million principal amount of Secured Medium Term
Notes,Series C,6.60%Series due 2011 with the proceeds used to reduce short-term
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
borrowing incurred in support of ongoing long-term construction requirements.At December
31,2001,no amount remainded to be issued on this shelf registration statement.
On August 16,2001,the Company filed a $200 million shelf registration statement that can be
used for First Mortgage Bonds (including medium-term notes),unsecured debt or preferred
stock.At December 31,2001,no amounts had been issued.
In August 2001,$25 million First Mortgage Bonds 9.52%Series due 2031 were redeemed
early.
The amount of first mortgage bonds issuable by the Company is limited to a maximun of $900
million and by property,earnings and other provisions of the mortgage and supplemental
indentures thereto.Substantially all of the electric utility plant is subject to the lien of the
indenture.
Pollution Control Revenue Bonds,Series 1984,due December 1,2014,are secured by First
Mortgage Bonds,Pollution Control Series A,which were issued and are held by a Trustee for
the benefit of the bondholders.
On April 26,2000,at the request of the Company,the American Falls Reservoir District issued
its American Falls Refunding Replacement Dam Bonds,Series 2000 in the aggregate principal
amount of $20 million for the purpose of refundingon April 26,2000 a like amount of its bonds
dated May 1,1990.The Company has guaranteed repayment of these bonds.
On May 17,2000,tax exempt Pollution Control Revenue Refunding Bonds Series 2000 in the
aggregate amount of $4 million were issued by Port of Morrow,Oregon for the purpose of
refunding on August 1,2000,a like amount of its Pollution Control Revenue Bonds,Series
1978.
At December,2001 the overall effective cost of all outstanding first mortgage bonds and
pollution control revenue bonds was 7.0 percent.
8.Notes Pavable:
At December 31,2001 the Company had regulatoryauthority to incur up to $500 million of
short-term indebtedness.The Company has a $165 million facility that expires April 26,2002
and a $120 million facility that expires April 18,2002.Under these facilities the Company pays
a facility fee on the commitment,quarterly in arrears,based on the Company's First Mortgage
Bond rating.Commercial paper may be issued up to the amounts supported by the bank credit
facilties.
Also,at December 31,2001,the Company had $100 million of floating rate notes outstanding,
payable on September 1,2002.
At December31,2001 the Company's short term borrowing totaled $282 million.
9.Income Taxes:
The Company follows the liability method of computing deferred taxes on all temporary
differences between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities and adjusts deferred tax
assets and liabilities for enacted changes in tax laws or rates.Consistent with orders and
directivesof the Idaho Public Utilities Commission (IPUC),the regulatory authority having
principal jurisdiction,the Company's deferred incometaxes (commonly referred to as
normalizedaccounting)are provided for the difference between income tax depreciationand
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
straight-line depreciation computed using book lives on coal-fired generationfacilities and
properties acquired after 1980.On other facilities,deferred income taxes are provided for the
difference between accelerated income tax depreciation and straight-line depreciation using tax
guideline lives on assets acquired prior to 1981.Deferred income taxes are not provided for
those income tax timing differences where the prescribed regulatory accounting methods do
not provide for current recovery in rates.Regulated enterprises are required to recognize such
adjustments as regulatory assets or liabilities if it is probable that such amounts will be
recoveredfrom or returned to customers in future rates.
The State of Idaho allows a three percent investment tax credit upon certain qualifying plant
additions.Investment tax credits earned on regulatory assets are deferred and amortized to
income over the estimated service lives of the related properties.Credits earned on non-
regulatedassets or investments are recognized in the year earned.
10.Allowance For Funds Used Durinq Construction (AFDC):
AFDC,a non-cash item,represents the composite interest costs of debt,and a return on equity
funds,used to finance construction.While cash is not realized currently from such allowance,it
is realized under the rate making process over the service life of the related property through
increased revenues resulting from higher rate base and higher depreciation expense.Based
on the uniform formula adopted by the Federal Energy RegulatoryCommission (FERC),the
Company's weighted-average AFDC rate at December 31,2001 was 5.4 percent.
11.Requlatory Issues:
The Company has a Power Cost Adjustment (PCA)mechanism that provides for annualadjustmentstotherateschargedtoitsIdahoretailelectriccustomers.These adjustments,
which take effect annually in May,are based on forecasts of net powersupply expenses and
the true-up of the prior year's forecast.During the year,the difference between the actual and
forecasted costs is deferred with interest.The balance of the deferral,called a true-up,is then
included in the calculation of the next year's PCA adjustment.
12.DiscontinuedOperations:
Effective June 11,2001 the Company transferred its non-utility wholesaleelectricity marketing
operations (Energy Marketing)to IDACORP Energy (\E).
EnergyMarketing net assets transferred consists primarily of energy trading contracts and
trading accounts receivableand accounts payable.The results of operations of Energy
Marketingwere previously reported on the Company's Statements of Income as "Energy
marketing activities -net."For all periods presented,Energy Marketing is reported as a
discontinued operation.
In exchange for the transfer of Energy Marketing to IE,the Company received a partnership
interest in IE,which was transferred to IDACORP in exchange for notes receivablefrom
IDACORP totaling approximately $76 million of which $43 million had been paid at December
31,2001.This amount approximates the historical book value of the transferred Energy
Marketing net assets on May 31,2001 of $21 million and retained intercompanytax liabilities of
$55 million.The notes receivableare due over periods of one to ten years and bear interest at
IDACORP's overall variable short-term borrowing rate,which was 2.2 percent at December 31,2001.
Concurrent with this transfer,IE and the Company have entered into an Electricity Supply
Management Services Agreement (Agreement).The Company received approval of the
Agreement from the IPUC,the Oregon Public Utility Commission and the FERC.Under the
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
agreement the Company will continue to own,operate and maintain its electric generating
epuipment and transmission facilities and be responsible for system reliability.IE will manage
and dispatch the system resources to balance generation and load within the companies
operating area.The Company paid approximately $2 million in accordance with the
Agreement as of December 31,2001.Additionally the Company sold $93 million in off-system
sales to and purchased $172 million in purchased power from IE.
13.Derivative Financial Instruments:
Prior to the June 11,2001 transfer of Energy Marketing to IE (Note 12),the Company used
financial instruments such as commodity futures,forwards,options and swaps to manage
exposure to commodity price risk in the electricity markets.The objective of the Company's risk
management program was to mitigate the risk associated with the purchase and sale of
electricity as well as to optimize its energy marketing portfolio.The accounting for derivative
financial instruments used to manage risk were in accordance with the concepts established in
EITF 98-10,"Accounting for Contracts Involved in EnergyTrading Activities,"and SFAS 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities"as amended by SFAS 138
"Accounting for Certain Derivative Instrumens and Certain Hedging Activities."
