This monograph is concerned with the determination of the allowed
rate ofreturn in rate cases which, in part, determines the rates
ofcharge to customers of public utilities. Rate of return
determination has been a central topic in utility regulation for a
century. Recent changes in the traditionally regulated markets -
electricity, gas, and telephone - have shoved discussion of rate of
return determination into the background, replacing it by
technology changes, competition, downsizing, deregulation, and
reg'ulatory incentive systems. These new issues have made the
regula tory sector, which had the reputation of being stodgy and
uninteresting, an exciting field ofstudy. But rate ofreturn is not
dead. It will playa key role in whatever the new structure ofthe
regulated sector. Separating generation from transmis sion and
distribution will not eliminate the need for rate of return
analysis in the electric utility industry. Rather, it may well
increase the number of companies for which the rate of return needs
to be determined. It will playa fundamental role in the new
regulatory environment. Incentive systems in the regulated sector
may be the wave of the future but they will use the required rate
ofreturn as a benchmark. Rate case will persist. Most rate cases
include opposing testimony as to the "fair" rate of return or even
the cost ofcapital for a public utility whose rates are at issue."
