All underlying data used in preparation of the material outlined above shall be made available in the office of the party serving such verified matter during usual office hours for inspection by any party of record desiring to do so, and shall be made available to the Board upon request therefor. The underlying data shall be made available also at the hearing, but only if and to the extent specifically requested in writing and required by any party for the purpose of cross-examination. Since appendix I data are to be submitted on a combined carrier basis, any underlying individual carrier data used to complete appendix I should be furnished to the Board for its use as well as for the use of parties opposing the sought increases.

should be submitted for the information of the Board. How much of the constant and sum of money costs may or
should be recovered by any specific segment of traffic rest on (1) considerations including value of service,
demand, and ability to pay, and (2) considerations which involve matters relating to regulatory policy.Note B: Separate the amount of constant costs, including unrelated, by using Statement No. 6-68, Highway Form B,

demand, and ability to pay, and (2) consideration which involve matters relating to regulatory policy.Note B: Determine the amount of constant costs, including unrelated, by using Statement No. 6-68, Highway Form
B, Schedule A, Line 111, column (3) multiplied by 10 percent; insert this amount on line (a).Note C: Determine the amount of variable costs, including unrelated, by using Statement No. 6-68, Highway Form

Footnotes to Appendix I:
Explanatory: The Purpose of Appendix I is twofold, namely: (1) to obtain, through part 1, Revenue Need, an
indication of the past actual, present, and restated system revenue needs of the traffic and cost study
carriers, which, along with the financial data required in appendix B, will facilitate an analysis of the
financial stability of these carriers, and (2) to allocate a part of these system revenue needs to the traffic
at issue as provided for in part II, line 13. It is that portion of constant and sum of money costs resulting
from this allocation plus the related variable expenses (line 14) which produces the total costs assigned to
the issue traffic (line 16) which is then compared to the issue traffic revenues in the revenue-to-cost
comparison shown on line 17. This comparison provides some indication of how much the total issue traffic is
contributing to the carriers' overall revenue needs; and serves as a reference point for the consideration of
ratemaking factors, other than costs, which may influence the appropriateness of the issue traffic's
contribution.Appendix I data should be completed and submitted for all traffic and cost study carriers combined. However,
data for the ``base calendar year--actual,'' column (3), should be developed and completed for each traffic
and cost study carrier and the results combined for all such carriers. The data in part I, columns (4) through
(7), which reflect an updating of revenue need data for the ``base calendar year--actual'' to present and
restated levels, should be developed on either an individual carrier basis, or on a composite carrier basis
comprised of all traffic and cost study carriers. Data in part II, line 14 columns (4) through (7), which
reflect an updating of the cost and traffic study data for the ``base calendar year--actual'' to present and
restated levels, should be developed by the use of either individual carrier data for each of the study
carriers, or the composite carrier data for those study carriers whose revenues from the issue traffic amount
to 50 percent or more of their total system revenues for the ``base calendar year--actual.'' However, for line
14, the method selected should be the same as that used to update the operating ratios to present and restated
levels as required in .3 Cost study. As indicated above, appendix I data should be completed and submitted
only for all traffic and cost study carriers combined. Since appendix I are to be submitted on a combined
carrier basis, any underlying individual carrier data used to complete this appendix should be furnished to
the Board for its use as well as for the use of parties opposing the sought increases. Data in columns (4)
through (7) must be appropriately explained and supported. Each of the dollar figures called for in these
columns shall be accompanied by an explanation of the bases or methods of restatement, including explicit
identification of all projected or assumed changes in revenues, in wage rates, in price levels of other
expenses and property items, and in productivity, as compared with the preceding (actual) year results. Note
that the time periods referred to in appendix I, that is, ``Base calendar year--actual,'' ``Present proforma
year'' and ``Restated proforma year'' are the same time periods indicated in Sec. 1139.3, Cost study.\1\ Sources in this column apply to column (3) ``Base calendar year--actual.'' Data for columns (4) through (7)
should rely on column (3) as a base in order to reflect data for the ``Present proforma year'' and the
``Restated proforma year.'' Annual report sources apply to class I motor carriers for class II carriers use
comparable sources.\2\ The data in column (3) should reflect the revenue need data (part 1), and the traffic and cost study data
(part II), for the traffic study year. That is, the ``Base calendar year--actual,'' which should coincide with
the ``Base calendar year--actual'' referred to in the Cost study (Sec. 1139.3). Parts I and II should be
completed for each individual study carrier--the purpose being to allocate a portion of each carrier's system
revenue need to the traffic at issue as provided for in part II. The results for all study carriers should
then be aggregated and submitted on a combined carrier basis.\3\ The data in column (4) should be based on present wage, price and productivity levels and reflect conditions
prevailing on a date no later than the 45 days prior to the date of the tariff filing.\4\ The data in columns (5), (6), and (7) should be based on wage, price, and productivity levels anticipated on
the effective date of the proposed rates.\5\ The purpose of this column is to obtain data on what system revenue needs of the study carriers should be at
a giving time. Part I should consider the sum of money in addition to operating expenses (including that
needed to attract debt and equity capital) which the carriers feel they require to insure financial stability
and the capacity to render service.\6\ In columns (4) through (7), show income taxes based on estimated taxable income reduced by the taxes
applicable to other income such as, for example, capital gains transactions.\7\ In columns (4) through (7), determine the net income based on data shown for lines 1 though 7. In column
(7), the estimate of the net income needed should be supported by evidence that it is a just and reasonable
amount.\8\ Show expenses and revenues allocated to the total issue traffic based on an expansion of the sample to a
full year. The amount shown on line 14 for variable expenses should agree with that shown in Method B, line
(d). [47 FR 49579, Nov. 1, 1982; 47 FR 54081, Dec. 1, 1982]
