(1) The Company's general rate cases included approval of base rate increases, offset by tax customer credits. As the tax customer credits are returned to customers, this results in a decrease to income tax expense as a result of flowing through the benefits related to meters and mixed service costs. The decrease in income tax expense offsets the increases in base rates granted to the Company in these general rate cases.
