| Notes:
SEPA, SWPA, and WAPA designate the Southeastern Power Administration, the Southwestern Power
Administration, and the Western Area Power Administration, respectively. Most of the dollar values appearing in this report
have been converted to 1999 dollars using the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) deflator. The GDP deflator was applied to
companies' prior year loan and interest data. Although the values on the companies' balance sheets and income statements
do not change from year to year, the purpose of the calculation was to estimate Federal Government support in a consistent
framework. The framework chosen was the value of Federal Government support in terms of its 1999 purchasing power. The
1999 GDP deflator was 22 percent higher than the 1990 value and 1 percent higher than the 1998 value. Source: Tables 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, and 18 in this chapter. | |||||
