INTRODUCTION

Application No. 42924 is an application by United Parcel Service

requesting an increase in rates applicable to the wholesale parcel delivery

in Southern California. After submission the matter was reopened for further

hearing.

This study shows the results of operations of the United Parcel

Service in California at current rates and rates as proposed. The proposed

increase in rates would be applicable only to the Southern California

certificated portion of the system operations.

An important objective of this study is to segregate the certificated

operations from the system. To achieve this objective a very careful review

was made of company allocation procedures. The staff found the allocation

procedures to be reasonable, and were adopted for this study.

Further, the staff has reviewed company accounting methods, and for

the purposes of this study, has made the following modifications to reflect

staff practices, generally based on past Commission decisions.

a. Management Fees: This item, as shown in company books, has

been modified in this study to reflect an assignment of costs

based upon underlying expenses, rather than as a percentage of

gross revenue and a portion of net operating revenue.

b. Operating Rents: For those facilities leased from affiliates

staff estimates reflect a substitution of expenses on a liAs

owned basis" rather than intercompany rental charges appearing

in company book expenses.

c. Depreciation Expense as Included in Operating Expenses: This

expense is set up on company books on the basis of straight

line depreciation. For revenue equipment (trucks) this study

- 1 ­

Page 3: United Parcel Service Results of Operations 1961 - Cal PUC

reflects an extended service life, from the end of 1960. For

other depreciable property the service lives used by the company

appear reasonable.

d. Depreciation Expense for Income Tax: The company computation

of this item is on the basis of accelerated depreciation. All

computations in this study are on this same basis; that is,

income taxes on the basis as paid.

The following is the detail and development of this staff study in

this matter, reflecting the foregoing, and for the following conditions.

Results of Operations for:

(1) Company books for the year 1960 (page 15).

This statement shows the company books unadjusted for the System

and for certificated operations. The latter reflects revenue

at current rates and expenses as allocated from the system total.

(2) Company books for the year 1960, adjusted for Management Fee,

and Rentals from Affiliates (page 16). This statement shows

the company books adjusted for the two named items; Management

Fee was modified to reflect an allocation of cost, and Rentals

from Affiliates on an "As owned basis!? Otherwise as in 1 above.

(3) Estimate for a year Beginning July 1, 1961, at Current Rates

(page 17). The purpose of this estimate is to show the results

of operation for a future period under current rates and

estimated expenses for the future period. The revenues in

Northern California reflect the level of rates effective in

NOVember, 1960, and at current rates in Southern California.

The expenses reflect the contract level wages for the period,

~funagement Fee and Rentals from Affiliates as in 2 above, and

- 2 ­

Page 4: United Parcel Service Results of Operations 1961 - Cal PUC

Depreciation Expense on a straight line basis, extended life from

the end of 1960.

(4) Estimate for a year Beginning July 1, 1961, at rates as

Proposed in Application No o 42924 (page 18). This is intended

to show the estimated results of operations under the proposed

rates, and reflecting expenses as outlined in 3 above.

Computations have been made for alternatives to the proposed rates

for Southern California, and show for the Certificated Operations the

following results:

Southern California Rate Alternatives to Proposed Piece Rates -

No Change in Other Proposed Conditions Increase Piece Increase Piece

Rate by 2¢ Rate by let Rather Than 31 Rather Than 3¢

Operating Ratio Before Income Taxes 91.6 92.6 After Income Taxes 95.1 95.6

Rate of Return 10.4 9.3

Associate Engineer E. M. Jennings assisted in the preparation of

this study.

Full cooperation was provided by the company in obtaining the basic

data for this study.
