Deconstructing and reconstructing consolidated tax savings for public utilities

Article Abstract:

Stand-alone accounting should be used rather than consolidated tax adjustments when public utility companies receive tax benefits from consolidating returns with affiliated companies that are unregulated. The stand-alone method best meets national energy concerns, tax policy objectives and equity principles, allowing public utilities to receive the same tax benefits as private businesses. Under stand-alone accounting, a normalized cost of service is used with no consolidated tax adjustment. The confusion on this issue which has been created by recent case law and Treasury Regulations should be resolved through legislative action.

Arguments in support of the doctrine are unreasonable, illogical, and irrelevant. Yet it is still strongly defended by tax teachers and practitioners. Professionals resist change and fear corporate tax reform.
