water company for the year ending De-
ceEnber 81. 1918. shows the income from
operations to have been $2e, 215.s2. The
cost Of opera lions is shown by this re-
port to have been &s,51T.s0.
= Increased taxes.for 1920 and subsequent
years, over 1913, is shown to amount
to Sl,074, due largely to an increased
assessed valuation Of the compahy's
property IN Killingiy.
Frem various bases Of estimate the
PHisiie utiiit 'es commission Axes the val
uation Of the conpany's property at $780,
o0e, and nnds that where company Is
given the benefit Of present day prie-
es in the reconstruction valuation Of its
property the rate Of return should be
tempered aNeordingly. Without ruling
that an per cent. return is too high
under present economic conditions and
the general industrial rate of return the
commission Is Of the opinion in this case
that per cent return on the present
fair valuation Of the water company
property is q reasonable return. An 8
per cent dividend on the stock issued
and outstanding would be $4,000. A
per cent return on the valuation Of the
property would be $1,000, or difference
Of only $500 per annum.
II Is not disputed but what the COM
pany is entitled to fair return on its
shows that Substantially q SO 1-3 per
| cent. increase on the 1918 rate is nee
essary to accomplish this result. the
I commission finds.
