ACC Recommended Order's Impact on APS Revenue

On our latest call, folks were asking how the Hearing Officer's Recommended Opinion and Order (if adopted by the ACC) would affect APS's total bottom line.  That turns out to be a difficult question.  The ROO provides for a $4 million dollar rate increase.  However, APS has a negative fuel adjustment that works into the equation as well.  

Here's an excellent explanation from the transcript of the latest earnings call.  

Ted N. Geisler -- Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer

High level, so you've got the $4 million net sort of revenue increase as proposed in the ROO, that includes fuel. So we've got to get that down to non-fuel. So you back out about $33 million of fuel related increases that takes you to a total non-fuel revenue decrease of $29 million. You add to that incremental cost that we've stated for a while now will hit the income statement once rates go into effect of about $110 million and then you tax effect that, that gets you to the $90 million estimated annual impacts to ongoing earnings. And again, we expect that to be up to $90 million and that's an estimate at this time.
