1081425.1 1 1 Q.1. Please state your name and business address. 2 A.1. My name is Dale E. Lehman and my business address is 5 Whitetail Ct., Galena, IL 3 61036. 4 Q.2. By whom and in what capacity are you employed? 5 A.2. I am a Professor of Business Administration and Associate Director of the Center 6 for Business Analytics at Loras College in Dubuque, Iowa. However, my testimony reflects my 7 personal views, not those of Loras College. 8 Q.3. Please summarize your education, background, and experience in the 9 telecommunications industry.

10 A.3. I have a B.A. in Economics from SUNY Stony Brook, and a Master’s degree and 11 Ph.D in Economics from the University of Rochester. I have published extensively in the areas of 12 telecommunications regulation, demand, and cost modeling. I served as Member of Technical 13 Staff at Bellcore for two years and was Senior Economist at Southwestern Bell Telephone 14 Company for one year. I directed the MBA in Telecommunications Management program at 15 Alaska Pacific University for 12 years. My curriculum vitae is attached to my testimony as 16 Exhibit A. 17 Q.4. Have you previously testified before the California Public Utilities 18 Commission? 19 A.4. Yes, I filed Opening and Reply testimony in docket R-11-11-007, the proceeding

20 addressing potential adjustments to the California High Cost Fund A ("CHCF-A") program. I also 21 sponsored rebuttal testimony in A.11-12-011, the rate case for Kerman Telephone Co., and offered 22 opening and rebuttal testimony in the rate cases for Siskiyou Telephone Company (A.15-12-001) 23 and Volcano Telephone Company (A.15-12-002) during 2015 and 2016. 24 Q.5. What is the purpose of your Opening Testimony? 25 A.5. I address two specific ratemaking issues to be resolved in Calaveras Telephone

26 Company’s (“Calaveras”) rate case: first, the setting of basic residential rates within a pre-defined 27 “range of reasonableness” from $30.00 to $37.00 derived from D.14-12-084, and second, the 28 application of the FCC cap on corporate operations expense to Calaveras.

1081425.1 2 1 Regarding the reasonable rate level, the Commission has determined that the basic

2 residential rate for companies receiving California High Cost Fund A (“CHCF-A”) support should 3 be in the range of $30 to $37 per month, inclusive of certain fees and surcharges. However, the 4 Commission relies on the record in individual company rate cases to determine where end user 5 rates should fall within that range. With reference to affordability factors, income data, and 6 information to put the proposed rates in perspective nationally, I explain why the lower end of this 7 range is appropriate for the area served by Calaveras. 8 Regarding the application of the FCC cap on corporate operations expense, the

9 Commission adopted the FCC Cap as “a rational mechanism for calculating and determining a

10 reasonable level of corporate expenses” for those Small Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers 11 receiving funds from the CHCF-A (D.14-12-084, pages 28-29). The Commission provided 12 carriers with the opportunity in their General Rate Case applications to rebut the presumption that 13 the FCC cap should apply to their intrastate corporate expenses, and further, the Commission

14 declined to prescribe the factors used to rebut that presumption. While Calaveras’s projected 2018 15 test year corporate operations expense, including rate case expense, does not exceed the FCC’s 16 cap, I believe my testimony on this topic is still relevant in this proceeding. I provide a number of 17 factors that demonstrate that the unmodified FCC cap provides an unreasonably low benchmark

18 with which to compare Calaveras’s actual corporate operations expense. I then provide the 19 modifications necessary to make the FCC cap a more realistic benchmark, indicating that

20 Calaveras’s projected corporate operations expenses, including rate case expenses, are even 21 further below the FCC’s cap as modified. 22 I then address the issue of cost recovery for rate case expenses, and explain why these 23 expenses are not included within the FCC cap. Rate case expenses are analytically separate from 24 the general corporate expenses that inform the corporate expense cap. It would be inappropriate 25 for the Commission to foreclose or limit these expenses by treating them as subject to any 26 corporate expense cap. 27 Q.6. Please summarize your Opening Testimony.

28 A.6. I offer evidence concerning income levels in the area served by Calaveras, and

1081425.1 3 1 these data demonstrate that Calaveras is in a low-income area in which rates should be as low as

2 reasonably possible. Median household income in Calaveras’s territory is approximately 44% 3 lower than the rest of California, and poverty rates are 39% higher. More detailed tax return data

4 shows that the average tax return filed in Calaveras’s territory has adjusted gross income barely 5 over half of the average for the State. Given these comparisons, the $30 benchmark rate is itself

6 above reasonable standards of affordability, so even the bottom of the “range of reasonableness” 7 may not be reasonable for Calaveras’s customer base. The $37 rate would place Calaveras’s rates 8 among the highest in the nation. I recommend that the $30 rate be adopted for Calaveras,

9 inclusive of the fees and surcharges used to calculate the FCC’s Residential Rate Ceiling, which is

10 the benchmark used to determine the level of the federal Access Recovery Charge (“ARC”). 11 I explain why the unmodified FCC corporate expense cap is not an appropriate benchmark

12 for Calaveras – it is unrealistically low. The FCC has acknowledged some errors in its original 13 cap, and as a result, I show that several errors remain in the FCC cap. These can be corrected and 14 I provide these corrections. Briefly, the unmodified cap is partially based on erroneous data due to 15 inclusion of a number of acquired study areas that report arbitrary splits of corporate operations 16 expenses as if there were two separate study areas, inappropriate comparisons with a number of 17 study areas operated by large national carriers (who have centralized corporate operations), and 18 failure to adjust for occupational wage levels and regulatory intensity that are relevant to

19 Calaveras’s operations and should be included within the cap. As a result, the unmodified cap of 20 $35.14 per loop per month should be $49.99. Calaveras’s projected actual corporate operations 21 expenses for 2018 are $33.90 per loop per month – just below the FCC cap, but far below the 22 more appropriate corrected cap. 23 Further, I explain why the FCC cap does not include rate case expenses. The FCC cap is 24 based on data from rural study areas in the country,1 the vast majority of which did not have rate 25 cases in 2009 (the year the FCC model is based on). This account data (FCC Part 32 account 26 1 As I explain in Exhibit B, not all rural study areas are included and some study areas are counted 27 twice. 28

1081425.1 4 1 6720) is then related to the number of loops in order to derive a “reasonable” relationship of 2 corporate operations expense per loop to the number of loops. So, the relationship that is 3 established does not account for rate case expenses. These necessary and unavoidable expenses 4 need to be recovered separately. 5 Q.7. What guidance does the Commission provide for determining the benchmark 6 local rate to be used in a rate case? 7 A.7. The Commission has determined that, in their next rate cases, companies who rely 8 on CHCF-A support must seek adjustments to their basic residential rates to place those rates 9 within a predetermined range of reasonableness from $30 to $37 per month, inclusive of federal 10 and state fees and surcharges.2 The Commission found the historical benchmark of 150% of

11 AT&T rates could not be used to determine reasonable rates because AT&T’s rate design is no 12 longer subject to a regulatory reasonableness review. Instead, the Commission established the 13 range of $30 to $37 per month, with the exact rate applicable to each company to be decided in

14 their rate cases. The range was to balance two objectives: it “avoids excessive draws on the A- 15 Fund and meets the urban/rural rate comparability criterion.”3 The Commission did note that the 16 $30 floor is equivalent to the ceiling adopted by the FCC as reasonable. Beyond this, the 17 Commission cites the unique role played by rural carriers in achieving universal service goals, 18 their important role in addressing wildfire danger, and the higher cost to provide service in rural

19 areas, some of which must be borne by their customers. According to D.14-12-084, “[t]he 20 Commission’s basic rate determination appropriately balances all of these policy rationales.” No 21 further guidance is provided concerning how a reasonable rate is to be set within this range. 22 Q.8. What additional factors should the Commission consider in establishing the 23 benchmark rate? 24 A.8. Since the Commission established this range by considering a number of factors, 25 26 2 D.14-12-084, Ordering Paragraph ("O.P.") 9, at p. 102. 27 3 D.14-12-084, at p. 67 28

1081425.1 5 1 the principal remaining factor on which to choose a single rate within this range concerns the 2 affordability of rates. Affordability is established in relation to income levels. So, the

3 Commission should consider income levels in Calaveras’s service territory in order to determine a 4 benchmark rate within the range.

5 Q.9. What data is available regarding income levels in Calaveras’s service 6 territory? 7 A.9. The American Community Survey4 data, based on a sample of households,

8 provides some high level comparisons of incomes in Calaveras’s territory with the rest of 9 California. Table 1 shows some comparisons:

10 Table 1: Population, Income, and Poverty in Calaveras’s Territory and the Rest of California 11 Area Population Median Household Income Households in Poverty

12 Zip 95222 5292 $51,927 9.0%

13 Zip 95228 3976 $61,250 6.4%

14 Zip 95230 718 $46,250 5.8%

15 Zip 95252 13,460 $62,384 6.5%

16 Rest of CA 37,253,956 $61,489 16.4% 17

18 These comparisons reveal that Calaveras’s territory has incomes comparable to the rest of 19 the state in some areas and lower incomes in other parts of its service area. Poverty rates are lower

20 than in the rest of the state, but it is important to note that households with incomes below the 21 poverty line are generally eligible for lifeline rates. 22 More precise data on incomes can be obtained from tax returns. The IRS reports adjusted

23 gross income and the number of returns by zip code.5 The IRS data is not sampled – it is complete 24 25 4 Data obtained from American FactFinder, https://factfinder.census.gov/faces/nav/jsf/pages/index.xhtml, on August 18, 2016. The data was 26 downloaded by searching for each of the 4 zip codes served by Calaveras (95222, 95228, 95230, and 95252) and the state (California). 27 5 https://www.irs.gov/uac/soi-tax-stats-individual-income-tax-statistics-zip-code-data-soi. Data was obtained on August 18, 2016 and is for the latest tax year available, 2013. 28

1081425.1 6 1 population data – but only some aggregate data is provided. The total income (and various 2 deductions, credits, etc.) is reported as is the total number of returns and dependents, but the 3 number of people and households are not directly given. These numbers can be inferred, however, 4 in a reasonable manner. Average income per tax return in the four zip codes served by Calaveras 5 is $58,857 while it is $72,716 in the rest of the state. 6 Q.10. Are there any affordability standards that can be applied to basic telephone 7 service? 8 A.10. I am not aware of any specific standards that have been adopted by a regulatory 9 commission although a number of proceedings have addressed the issue. As the Commission has 10 acknowledged, the FCC has found a $30 rate ceiling (inclusive of taxes and fees) to be reasonable. 11 Consideration has been given to the use of 0.75% of median household income as a potential 12 standard.6 Using this potential standard, Table 2 shows how the benchmark rate range compares 13 for the 4 zip codes served by Calaveras and the rest of California (1480 zip codes): 14 Table 2: Average Income in Zip Codes Served by the Calaveras and the Rest of CA

15 Area # Zip Average Income per % of median family income7 @ $30/month Codes Return ($37/month) 16 Calaveras 4 $58,857 0.76% 17 (0.94%) Rest of 1480 $72,716 0.62% 18 CA (0.76%) 19 As shown in Table 2, in the areas served by Calaveras, the $30/month rate is in the range

20 of this potential standard while the $37/month rate far exceeds this level. For the rest of 21 California, both rates fall below or close to this threshold. Again, this standard militates in favor 22 6 For example, see FSC’s Law & Economics Insights, Issue 11-6, Nov/Dec 2011, citing a number 23 of state and federal decisions. The .75% standard was used in Pennsylvania: “Accordingly, we agree with the ALJ that a $23.00/month affordability level based on 0.75% of statewide median 24 household income is appropriate for rural local exchange services in Pennsylvania.” (Pennsylvania 25 Public Utilities Commission Opinion and Order at 158, Docket I-00040105, July 18, 2011). 7 The IRS data does not report median income, but mean income can be computed. Nationally, 26 median income is 80% of mean income by zip code. Table 1 is based on using 80% of the mean 27 income figure to represent median income. “Family” income uses the Income per Return column as representative of family income. 28

1081425.1 7 1 of adopting a basic residential rate at the lower end of the range. 2 Q.11. Are there any affordability standards that can be applied to basic telephone 3 service? 4 A.11. A final important basis of comparison is to compare the proposed benchmark rates 5 with basic service rates around the country. Calaveras is proposing a basic service rate of $22.50 6 per month. Figure 1 shows the distribution of basic service rates (not including surcharges) 7 throughout the country8: 8 Figure 1: Basic Service Rate Distribution Around the Country9

9 Stand-alone R1 rate 10 Mean 17.031374 11 Std Dev 3.7613269 12 Std Err Mean 0.0543524 13 Upper 95% Mean 17.13793 14 Lower 95% Mean 16.924818 15 N 4789 16 100.0% maximum $40.60 99.5% $26.50 17 97.5% $25.00 18 90.0% $21.95 19 75.0% quartile $18.65 50.0% median $16.50 20 25.0% quartile $16.00 21 10.0% $13.45 22 2.5% $9.00 0.5% $1.00 23 0.0% minimum $1.00 24 25 8 See Exhibit C. 26 9 Data is for the NECA pool companies from the March-May 2016 CAF ICC data collection for the purpose of calculating the Test Period 2016-17 ARC rates. Data is for 4,790 exchanges 27 operated by approximately 1000 different companies. 28

1081425.1 8 1 As Figure 1 shows, the $22.50 proposed rate is in (approximately) the top 5% of basic 2 service rates around the country (actually 93.3% of the exchanges have lower rates). There is no

3 reason for Calaveras’s ratepayers, which have significantly lower incomes than the state average, 4 to be treated so divergently from the vast majority of small telephone company ratepayers 5 nationwide. 6 Q.12. What is your recommendation for the benchmark rate to be used in this case? 7 A.12. I recommend that the lower end of the range, $30, be used as the benchmark for 8 Calaveras. Customers served by Calaveras generally have lower incomes than the rest of 9 California. The $30 benchmark would place basic rates in the highest 5% of basic rates nationally, 10 while the $37 rate would be near the top in the nation. Given below average incomes, these high 11 rates are unjustified. 12 Q.13. Why would it be inappropriate to apply the unmodified FCC cap on corporate 13 operations expense to Calaveras? 14 A.13. The FCC has recently acknowledged errors in its description of the corporate 15 operations expense cap methodology. While the corrections to the FCC documentation are in 16 themselves minor, the implications of the errors are substantial and they fundamentally undermine 17 the legitimacy of applying an unmodified cap to Calaveras as a measurement of corporate

18 expenses in this rate case. Prior to the release of the FCC’s corrected methodology, it was not 19 possible to replicate its results, nor was it possible to determine exactly how the cap was derived.

20 Based on its corrected methodology, I was able to both replicate the FCC's results and see how

21 they were obtained. As a result, I have discovered a number of errors – both technical and 22 conceptual – that render the unmodified caps wholly inappropriate for application to Calaveras. 23 Modifications to the cap must be made through the “rebuttal” process envisioned in D.14-12-084. 24 Q.14. Please describe these technical and conceptual errors.

25 A.14. Exhibit B contains my complete explanation – here, I provide only a brief 26 description. The FCC cap is based on comparing actual corporate operations expense per loop 27 with the sizes of rural study areas (measured by the number of loops). The FCC uses a regression

28 model to establish this relationship and derive the cap on “reasonable” per loop corporate

1081425.1 9 1 operations expense. Its regression model purports to include all rural study areas in the nation. 2 However, the methodology includes the following problems:

3  The data set includes a number of acquired study areas that are reported as if they are two study areas (one for the acquiring company and one for the acquired company). The 4 allocation of corporate operations expense between the two is not sensible and does not reflect the operating characteristics of the study area. The two duplicated study areas 5 should be aggregated into the one study area they represent before constructing the regression model. Some of these duplicate study areas appear to be very small but with 6 relatively low levels of corporate operations expense. They are not, in fact, relatively inexpensive areas to serve (in terms of corporate operations), and this fact is revealed when 7 the duplications are corrected. There are 27 such duplicated study areas in the data the FCC used in its model. 8  Other study areas acquired during 2009 (the year whose data was used to build the FCC 9 model) represent a mixture of two very different company’s operations (the previous and new owners). Depending on when the acquisition occurred, the corporate operations 10 expense for these study areas is a mixture of the expenses of two quite different companies, leading to inaccuracies. As a result, the reported corporate operations expense for these 11 areas does not accurately reflect the actual expense of any single company. These study areas should have been excluded from the FCC model. There are 33 such acquired 12 exchanges whose data was used in the FCC model.

13  The FCC model includes study areas operated by Tier 1 carriers, large carriers whose networks are capable of providing end-to-end service, such as CenturyTel, Verizon, and 14 others that should have no bearing on the cost characteristics for Calaveras. There are 84 such Tier 1 carriers in the data used by the FCC. 15  The FCC model utilizes data from 43 study areas operated by SS=1 carriers (large national 16 carriers) and 325 study areas operated by SS=2 carriers (mostly large national carriers). Again, these large national carriers' corporate operations expenses are not relevant for the 17 corporate operations of Calaveras. Examination of the relationship between actual corporate operations expense per loop and the number of loops for these study areas 18 reveals that there is little or no effect of study area size on the level of expense per loop. This is not surprising since these study areas are operated by large national carriers with 19 centralized corporate operations. The reported level of corporate operations expense merely reflects the allocation of these expenses to the many study areas these companies 20 serve. The allocations are roughly proportional to the size of the study area and are not reflective of actual corporate operations required to serve small study areas by independent 21 carriers. 22 The FCC model fails to account for known and measurable factors that fundamentally 23 affect the corporate operations costs for Calaveras. Two critical factors are: wage levels required 24 to hire qualified personnel for corporate operations functions and regulatory activity which varies 25 significantly across states. These two factors can be measured and significantly impact the 26 corporate operations expense in rural study areas. Inclusion of these two factors results in a 27 statistically superior model and one that more accurately reflects the level of expense required to

28 serve rural study areas.

1081425.1 10 1 Q.15. What is the impact of correcting the shortcoming in the FCC cap 2 methodology? 3 A.15. These adjustments are necessary to fashion a corporate cap that can help measure

4 the reasonableness of Calaveras’s expenses, and with (or without) these adjustments, Calaveras’s 5 actual, proposed corporate expenses are entirely reasonable. Limiting the model to the appropriate 6 rural study areas (i.e., correcting the duplicated study areas, removing the acquired study areas, 7 removing the large national Tier 1, SS=1, and SS=2 carriers) leaves 617 rural study areas upon 8 which to revise the regression model. I also include measures for statewide differences in 9 occupational wages relevant to the corporate operations function as well as a measure of state 10 level regulatory intensity which varies across states. The revised regression model is superior both 11 statistically and conceptually to the one used by the FCC in deriving their cap. As a result, the 12 comparable level of actual corporate operations expense for Calaveras with the FCC cap is

13 misleading. In actuality, Calaveras’ corporate operations expense is considerably below an 14 appropriately modified FCC cap. 15 Q.16. Is your methodology and recommendation for an adjustment to the corporate

16 cap inconsistent with the imposition of the corporate cap as a “rebuttable presumption” in 17 D.14-12-084? 18 A.16. No. My recommended adjustments to the corporate cap are offered as a rebuttal to 19 the full application of the cap, and the potential for a rebuttal of the cap was specifically

20 contemplated in D.14-12-084. Furthermore, my methodology utilized the same operative premise

21 as the cap – that the Commission can evaluate the reasonableness of corporate expenses through 22 use of an external metric that does not involve a specific review of a company’s corporate 23 expenses. While I do not believe that use of an external “cap” is a reasonable way to set corporate 24 expense levels for ratemaking purposes, my methodology preserves the Commission’s judgment 25 that such a metric can be used in setting corporate expenses. My methodology and expense

26 recommendation simply remove the aspects of the FCC’s cap methodology that produce clearly 27 measurable unfairness to Calaveras by comparing its corporate expenses to companies who have

28 entirely different circumstances and cost drivers. With these corrections, I am offering the

1081425.1 11 1 Commission an analytically rigorous way to apply the cap to Calaveras without aberrational 2 results. My recommendations are therefore entirely consistent with the expectation in D.14-12-

3 084 that the cap would be rebutted where appropriate to reach the right result for a company’s 4 reasonable corporate expense figures. 5 Q.17. What is the relevance of the (modified) FCC cap for the expenses associated 6 with this general rate case?

7 A.17. Rate case expenses incurred in connection with Calaveras’s instant rate case should 8 either be excluded from the effects of the corporate cap, or these expenses should be treated as a 9 reasonable adjustment to the corporate cap methodology. The FCC cap is based on a regression

10 model using a single year’s (2009 data, reported in 2010) data (which is then adjusted by 11 inflation). A few of the carriers in that 2009 data may have experienced rate cases during that 12 year, but it is not likely to be many due to the infrequency of rate cases in many states. As a 13 result, rate case expenses are not captured as part of the FCC corporate expense methodology. 14 A small number of study areas in the NECA 2009 data used to develop the FCC caps may 15 include some rate case related expenses. To the extent that this is true, the FCC caps derived from 16 the regression model may be affected by these expenses. Importantly, these effects will be small 17 and will not come close to fully reflecting the rate case expenses for those study areas that 18 experienced such rate cases during 2009. The correct way to include rate case expenses in the 19 FCC cap methodology would be to identify study areas that experience rate cases and include this

20 variable in the regression model. This would permit the caps from the model to estimate the 21 average impacts of rate case expenses on corporate operations expense. In the absence of data on 22 this variable, the estimated FCC caps will not include adequate recovery of rate case expenses. 23 Rate case expenses are clearly part of the corporate operations necessary to operate the 24 company and provide service. So, it is appropriate to recover reasonable expenses associated with 25 this general rate case and because the cap does not include such expenses, they must be separately 26 recovered. 27

28

1081425.1 12 1 Q.18. Is there any evidence regarding how many rural study areas were involved in 2 rate cases in 2009? 3 A.18. I am not aware of any comprehensive databases that provide a quantitative view of 4 rate cases conducted across the states. I did check a number of State public utility commission 5 websites, to the extent possible, in order to see how many rate cases were conducted for rural 6 ILECs in 2009. Although there are limitations on the databases, I found no rate cases in Iowa, 7 Oregon, Nevada, Alaska, or Florida, and only one case in Washington. Aside from California, the 8 only state with significant general rate case activity for ILECs appears to be Texas: there were 12 9 rate cases in 2009, 10 in 2010, and 8 in 2011 (out of 61 ILECs that the state regulates). Even 10 when other states do conduct rate cases for rural ILECs, these cases are often less involved than 11 those conducted in California. For example, based on its annual report, the Texas Office of Public

12 Utility Counsel – the Texas equivalent of ORA – apparently did not participate in any of the small 13 telephone company rate cases in 2010 and 2011. 14 There are also good reasons to suspect that few rural ILECs had general rate cases in 2009: 15 state deregulation of retail telephone service has been extensive. According to a report from NRRI 16 on the status of state telecommunications regulation legislation, 30 states had reduced or 17 eliminated retail telecommunications regulation by the end of 2013, with more states actively 18 considering legislation in 2014 (and further activity in 2015).10 Not only has legislation precluded 19 rate cases in most states, but it is reasonable to expect that general rate case activity was already

20 declining in advance of this legislation. From my experience and discussion with other 21 telecommunications consultants and experts, rate cases for small ILECs are not conducted 22 regularly in most states. Indeed, some states go many years between rate cases, only conducting 23 them when a provider petitions for one, which is rare. 24 The result of the disparities in rate case activity is that few rate case expenses are reflected 25 in the account 6720 data that was used in deriving the FCC cap. Further, because the cap results 26 10 National Regulator 27 y Research Institute, “Telecommunications Legislation 2014: Completing the Process,” S. Lichtenberg, Report No. 14-07, June 2014. 28

1081425.1 13 1 from a regression model, the few states that may have had rate case expenses in 2009 only have a 2 minor effect on the estimated regression relationship. The effect of any remaining rate case 3 expenses that may be included in the NECA 2009 data will be further mitigated to the extent that 4 these expenses may be amortized over several years, as Calaveras is proposing to do in this case.

5 As a result, the FCC cap – unmodified or with my modifications – will not include recovery of the 6 vast majority of Calaveras’s rate case expenses. 7 Q.19. How do you recommend the Commission treat the expenses associated with 8 this general rate case? 9 A.19. Because these expenses are associated with a necessary corporate function, but are 10 not reflected in the FCC cap methodology, I recommend that they be included as a one-time 11 expense in determination of the revenue requirement for Calaveras. This approach is similar to 12 how price cap regulation plans treat discrete exogenous events (such as accounting changes 13 affecting company retirement plans). An alternative method for recovering costs such as rate case 14 expenses that are not recurring expenses is to treat them similar to other periodic costs, such as

15 investments in new electricity generating capacity. Typically, such “lumpy” investments are 16 amortized in order to avoid rate shock. Given that general rate cases occur regularly, but not every 17 year, these costs should be similarly amortized over a period of years in order to spread their 18 recovery over an appropriate timeframe. Three years would be a reasonable recovery timeframe 19 Q.20. Does this complete your Opening Testimony?

20 A.20. Yes. 21 22 23 24 25 26 27

1081420.1 Exhibit B (Report on the FCC Corporate Operations Expense Cap) Exhibit B

Report on the FCC Corporate Operations Expense Cap

Dale E. Lehman, PhD

Executive Summary

The Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) caps the level of corporate expenses that can be recovered through the High Cost Loop Support (“HCLS”) component of Universal Service Funding (“USF”).1 This cap relies on a mechanical comparison of the corporate expenses incurred by companies nationwide that serve similar numbers of access lines. Although it was under no FCC mandate to do so, the California Public Utilities Commission (“CPUC”) has adopted the same corporate cap expense methodology as a rebuttable presumption regarding the level of corporate expense that will be included in revenue requirements for small, rural telephone companies in general rate cases. As the term suggests, the results of this corporate cap presumption can be rebutted, and I offer a rebuttal through this report demonstrating that the FCC corporate cap provides an unreasonably low benchmark for Calaveras Telephone Company’s (“Calaveras”) corporate expenses in its rate case to be initiated on October 3, 2016. See D.14-12-084, at p. 29 (permitting rebuttal of the corporate cap in individual rate cases).

In the context of a rate case, the function of a revenue requirement is to reflect the reasonable costs that the utility will incur to serve its customers, including a reasonable return on investment. Part of the costs of service is corporate expenses. The Commission uses the FCC’s corporate cap as a starting point in measuring the reasonableness of small telephone company corporate expenses, but if the cap yields unreasonable results, it cannot be used to develop the corporate expense portion of revenue requirement.

Viewed in this light, the principal question in this rate case with regard to corporate expenses is whether the corporate expense level imposed by the FCC cap is a reasonable approximation of the level of corporate expense that Calaveras needs to provide service. In my judgment, it is not. Calaveras’s anticipated corporate expense for 2018, informed by its actual historical expenses, is $1,423,756. The corporate cap would impose a corporate expense level of $1,475,983, which is just above Calaveras’s actual expenses. However, if adjustments to the cap are made to better reflect Calaveras’s specific cost drivers and to remove errors that the FCC has now acknowledged in its cap, the adjusted cap is $2,099,686, and Calaveras is far below the cap. This evidence clearly demonstrates that the corporate operations expenses for Calaveras are entirely reasonable.

As I explain in detail in this report, the FCC cap contains fundamental flaws that by definition mean that it cannot be a reasonable predictor of corporate expense costs as applied to Calaveras. First, significant methodological errors exist in the FCC formula that undermine the ability of the corporate cap to function as an indicator of costs incurred by “similarly situated” companies. Second, the cap fails to

1 In re Connect America Fund, WC Docket No. 10-90, Report ad Order and Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, FCC 11- 161 (rel. Nov. 18, 2011), at ¶ 227, Appendix C.

1 reflect the higher level of corporate activity related to regulatory participation and compliance that Calaveras necessarily experiences relative to similarly-sized companies in other states. Third, the cap does not account for the higher wages that Calaveras must pay for corporate functions relative to similarly-sized companies in other states. All of these factors must be incorporated into a revised set of corporate caps to measure the reasonableness of the cap methodology as applied to Calaveras. Each of these adjustments are appropriate as a valid rebuttal to the imposition of the corporate cap on Calaveras’s corporate expenses in this rate case.

My report begins with a description of the FCC cap formula, and I show how that formula can be adjusted for recently acknowledged errors by the FCC. In addition, it incorporates key changes to the corporate cap methodology necessary to validly identify “similarly situated companies” to Calaveras, and to make the ultimate conclusions reached by the modified cap more reasonable for application to Calaveras. Next, I incorporate two additional factors into the FCC cap formula necessary to account for systematic differences across states affecting Calaveras’s specific costs: (1) higher levels of occupational wages needed for corporate functions due to Calaveras’s location in a region that requires higher wages; and (2) higher state regulatory activities for Calaveras due to regulation by a far more active commission than commissions in other states. Ultimately, these adjustments yield a modified cap for comparison purposes that demonstrates the reasonableness of Calaveras’s actual corporate expenses, as proposed in its rate case.

Section 1: The FCC Corporate Cap Analysis

The FCC corporate cap methodology is outlined in the USF/ICC Transformation Order, issued by the FCC on November 18, 2011. The basic procedure was to fit a linear spline (a smoothed mathematical function) to the corporate operations expense per loop as a function of the number of loops. The logic behind this particular relationship between corporate expense per loop and the number of loops is that it permits economies of scale (lower costs per loop) up to a certain point, after which the economies of scale are exhausted (so that costs per loop become constant). Figure 1 illustrates the logic of the kinked spline procedure:

Figure 1: Kinked Spline Relationship Between Corporate Expense Per Loop and # Loops e n i l r e p p x e s p o p r o c

2 Figure 1 clearly shows the declining corporate operations expense per loop until the 10,000 kink point and the relatively constant costs above that study area size.

The solution shows the statistical properties of the kinked spline, and the equation is derived from the following table:

SSE DFE MSE RMSE 215850.12239 935 230.85575 15.193938

Parameter Estimate Approximate Standard Error level cost 8.3182539942 0.85941785 slope 0.0028496515 0.00013668 kink point 10000 0 Solved By: Analytic Gauss-Newton

The above function matches the FCC corrected cap formula: costs are level at $8.318 for study area sizes above 10,000 loops and change by $.00285 for each loop below 10,000. There is evidence of significant economies of scale for smaller study areas – as the number of loops increase, the corporate expense per line rapidly decreases. Beyond a certain point (which the FCC initially determined to be at 10,000 loops), per loop corporate expense becomes relatively constant. The kinked spline essentially fits a linear regression line to the smaller study areas and then fits a constant level to the larger study areas.

However, this procedure required an adjustment because it produced a range of study area sizes for which total corporate operations expense would be lower for larger study areas. Logically, this is an impossible result. Figure 2 illustrates the problem the FCC ran into as a result of the kinked spline. It shows the total corporate operations expense estimated by the kinked spline in relation to different numbers of loops.

Figure 2: Total Corporate Operations Expense vs Study Area Size Using the FCC Estimation

3 As the FCC noted, the kinked spline produces a range of study area sizes for which the estimated total corporate operations expense actually decreases as the size of the study area increases. Again, this result does not make analytical sense. This result is due to the fact that the linear spline, when multiplied by the number of loops, produces a quadratic function which peaks and then declines. In order to remove this anomalous result, the FCC fit a linear segment (such as the dashed line shown in Figure 2) to connect the estimated total expense from the section where it is increasing with study area size to the section where it increases at a constant rate (i.e., where cost per line becomes relatively constant).

As a result of this adjustment, the FCC cap formula contains three ranges:

For # loops < 6,000 FCC Cap = maximum ($36.815 - .00285*# loops, or $50,000/# loops)

For # loops ≥ 6,000 and < 17,887 FCC cap = $2.615 + (112,600/# loops)

For # loops ≥ 17,887 FCC cap = $8.315

These caps apply to monthly corporate operations expense per line. This formula is based on year 2010 data and is indexed annually by the Gross Domestic Product-Consumer Price Index (“GDP-CPI”). The formulas were based on NECA reports of study area cost data. The NECA data is reported in year 2010 but actually uses year 2009 data.

I note that the statistical formula shown above represents the initial FCC cap formula, prior to the adjustment for inflation, and before applying the 115% factor (which the FCC deemed to be a “reasonable” range for these costs). I will describe and incorporate these factors below after the basic FCC cap formula is modified to account for errors and factors necessary for comparisons between similarly situated companies.

The FCC provided virtually no additional detail about the data actually used in establishing the cap until a recent correction was issued.2 That correction has allowed for independent replication of the FCC results, and allowed for necessary corrections to the results of the cap to reflect the actual data used. This subject is covered in Section 2 of this report.

Section 2: The FCC Methodological Corrections

The corporate expense caps have been revised to correct errors in the FCC’s formula from which it derived the cap. This revision resulted from my interactions with the FCC staff in an attempt to replicate the FCC cap formula. In particular, on April 7, 2015, the FCC formally acknowledged three errors:

 The actual NECA data used in deriving the caps was slightly different (a revised version) than the NECA data for 2010 that was posted on the FCC website.

2 Available under “Corporate Expense Estimator,” at https://www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/statistical-reports- telephone-and-broadband-services.

4  The cap for corporate expense per loop for the largest study areas should be $8.315, not $8.12, as originally reported.

 The FCC analysis excluded study areas with corporate operations expense in excess of $100 per loop per month, rather than the $200 per loop per month threshold that was originally reported in the Transformation Order.3

As a result, the FCC has clarified the methodology it used, re-issued the exact dataset they used in deriving the cap, and changed slightly the actual cap formula. The changes in the FCC formula are minor – except for the implications of the third change. By acknowledging that study areas with corporate operations expense in excess of $100 per loop per month were excluded, rather than the $200 originally reported, it is now possible to replicate exactly what the FCC did. In so doing, other errors are evident, which must be corrected if the cap is to provide a “reasonable level” of corporate expense to apply to Calaveras.

These errors, which I examine in the following subsections, involve:

 Double-Counted Study Areas: Failure to recognize that some rural study areas appear twice in the NECA data, with a portion of these study areas pertaining to a prior owner and the other portion for a subsequent owner. As a result, these single study areas appear as two smaller study areas and distort the relationship between corporate operations expense and study area size.  Recently Acquired Study Areas: Failure to remove recently (recent in the 2010 data) acquired exchanges which introduce further distortion as they reflect the corporate operations activities and expense of two, usually very different, companies (different in terms of size, geographic scope, and degree of centralization of corporate activities).  Inappropriate Comparison Groups: Inclusion of large national carriers in the model used to establish caps on corporate operations expense for very small local carriers which bear little similarity in terms of corporate operations activities and the ability to centralize these across wide geographic areas.

Each of these errors results in a corporate operations expense cap that fails to provide a reasonable benchmark for Calaveras’s operations. Each error can be corrected, however, to provide a benchmark based on similarly situated companies.

Double-Counted Study Areas: One significant error not captured by the FCC’s recent acknowledgments pertains to the treatment of study areas that, due to prior acquisitions, now appear in the NECA data as if they were two distinct study areas. The FCC cap formula is partially based on 54 study areas in the NECA data, which are actually 27 study areas reported twice. This double-counting is the result of including study areas that have been acquired by other carriers and for which the study area lines and corporate operations expense are reported in two parts – one part representing the original owner and

3 See “Corporate Expense Estimator,” available at http://www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/statistical-reports-telephone- and-broadband-services.

5 the other based on the acquiring company. There is no uniform logic applied to how each study area is disaggregated into two areas for reporting – some study areas report the corporate operations expense in rough proportion to the number of reported loops, while others do not. In any case, these study areas are only single study areas and not two separate study areas as treated by the FCC. Treating a study area as if it were really two smaller study areas distorts the essential relationship between cost per loop and study area size which is the fundamental idea behind the FCC cap. As a result, small study areas that appear only once in the NECA data are being compared with some nonexistent study areas.

A clear example of this problem can be seen in study area #411778 (Gorham Tel Co in Kansas). The FCC data contains two separate data lines for this single study area: one has 279 loops and an average corporate operations expense of $128.35 and the other has 246 loops with an average corporate operations expense of $7.14. Because the FCC methodology excludes study areas with costs greater than $100 per month, the first of these “study areas” is actually excluded from the FCC analysis. The second is included, but appears as a very low cost area for such a small study area. In actuality, there is only one study area and it has 525 loops and an average cost of $71.29 per month. So, instead of including a relatively high cost small study area, the FCC methodology actually includes a fictitious very small low cost study area, thereby resulting in a cap that is lower than it should be.

Another example is provided by study area #401144 (CenturyTel – Central A in Arkansas). This study area is reported as two study areas – one with 59,407 loops and an average cost of $9.24 and the other with 1019 loops and an average cost of $7.14. In actuality, it is a single study area with 60,426 loops and an average cost of $9.20. So, instead of a large study area with relatively low costs, the FCC methodology is based on one large study area with relatively low costs and another, fictitious, tiny study area with unrealistically low costs.

The proper way to account for these 27 acquired study areas is to aggregate the number of loops and total corporate operations expense into single study areas. Thus, these 54 artificial study areas used in the FCC analysis should be only 27 study areas. I make this adjustment to eliminate the distortion described above.

Recently Acquired Study Areas: The FCC data reflects another error related specifically to exchanges acquired during 2009 (the year used to produce the cap). The FCC included 33 study areas that were acquired during that year. The data for these acquired exchanges, while reported as a single study area in the data set, reflect the corporate operations expense for two different companies – the original owner and the acquiring company. Further, the acquisition data varies for each study area and the allocation of costs between the two companies is not explained or reported. Moreover, the use of data from original and acquiring companies, which often vary significantly in size, is of questionable validity. Because the goal of the cap is to establish a reasonable cap on corporate operations expense based on the size of “similarly situated companies” these acquired exchanges, which report corporate operations expense for a mixture of different companies, should be excluded from any valid cap analysis.

There is significant overlap between the issue of multiple entries per study area discussed above and the issue of acquired study areas. Indeed, most of the acquired study areas are then reported as two

6 entries in the data. Accordingly, these two errors are interrelated. However, the overlap is not complete. For example, study area #421151 in Missouri was acquired by Century Tel in 2009 but only has one row in the data. Since we do not know how much of the corporate operations expense reflects Century Tel and how much is attributable to the previous owner, the data cannot reasonably be relied upon and it is important to omit this study area from the analysis.

Inappropriate Comparison Groups: A third modification required for the FCC cap to serve as a reasonable basis for limiting corporate operations expense for Calaveras is also important. Many of the study areas in the FCC analysis are actually operated by companies whose operations reflect a vastly different scale. It was not possible to know whether the FCC excluded tier 1 carriers (or SS=2 carriers, as explained below) until I was able to replicate the FCC results. Now, it is clear that the FCC included tier 1 carriers (these are the large carriers that are capable of providing end to end service, such as Verizon, (e.g., study area 170170, Verizon N-PA with 44,382 loops) SS=1 carriers (former Bell study areas, such as study area 462187, The El Paso Cnty Tel, operated by Qwest, with 3898 loops) and SS=2 study areas (those operated by carriers whose holding companies earn more than $40 million in annual revenues, such as study area 461835, Sunflower Tel – CO, operated by FairPoint Communications, with 256 loops). The problem with including such study areas in a model to be applied to a company like Calaveras, is that the corporate expense per loop achieved in these study areas reflects national economies of scale that are not feasible for a company such as Calaveras.

84 Tier 1 study areas are included in the FCC data: 57 do not report the name of the carrier (or the study area name); 10 are operated by CenturyTel; 12 by Frontier Communications; 1 by Qwest; 3 by Verizon; and 1 by Windstream. Under any reasonable definition, these are not “similarly situated companies” to the Small Independent LECs, and their corporate operations expense cannot be used to establish a reasonable cap for these much smaller companies.

The FCC data also includes 43 SS=1 study area (Bell operated study areas). Of these study areas, 36 had no study area name reported and 7 are operated by Frontier, Qwest, or Verizon.

The SS=2 companies (with more than $40 million in annual revenue) are more complicated because there is one Independent Small LEC that is affiliated with an SS=2 company. Figure 3 shows the distribution of companies with study areas of SS=2 type in the NECA data used by the FCC:

7 Figure 3: Distribution of SS=2 Study Areas

For the purpose of comparing Calaveras to “similarly situated” companies, the study areas operated by Century Tel, FairPoint, Frontier, TDS, and Windstream should be excluded from any reasonable cap used to measure the reasonableness of Calaveras’s corporate expenses in this case. The size of these study areas is not remotely related to the size of the company providing service to that study area.

The inappropriateness of including the study areas operated by large national carriers can be readily seen by examining the relationship between corporate operations expense per loop and the number of loops for these study areas. Figure 4 shows this relationship for the 364 study areas (SS=1, Tier=1, or SS=2 for large national carriers), with the study area size drawn on a logarithmic scale (because several study areas have more than 1 million loops, making it difficult to visualize the relationship):

It is evident from Figure 4 that there is little or no relationship between study area size and the corporate operations expense per loop for these larger companies because the types of activities embodied in corporate operations are not performed at the study area level for these national carriers. The data merely reflect a (mostly proportionate) allocation of these costs across a large number of study areas. It does not provide a meaningful or reasonable basis for measuring corporate operations expense for a much smaller company like Calaveras.

9 All of these modifications – aggregating the “multiple” data entry study areas, acquired study areas, Tier 1 study areas, SS=1 study areas, and SS=2 study areas operated by large national carriers, contain significant overlaps (e.g., many SS=1 study areas are also tier 1 study areas). The NECA data used by the FCC started with 1,028 study areas. 91 were excluded as either non-rural study areas or study areas with corporate operations expense greater than $100 per loop per month. 937 study areas were left that the FCC used in its analysis (although 27 of these were actually duplicates, as described above). After the exclusions described above, 607 study areas remain that are operated by companies that might be characterized, at least without further examination, as “similarly situated.”4 As discussed below, even many of these companies are not similarly situated because they do not operate in California and do not experience the increased regulatory costs and increased wage demands that are unavoidable in California.

Figure 5 shows the corporate operations expense per loop and the number of loops for each study area, distinguishing between the study areas included for analysis and those that have already been – and which should be – excluded:

Figure 5: Corporate Operations Expense vs. # Loops for Excluded and Included Study Areas

4 Further modifications are appropriate, as indicated in Section 3.

10 The red points are the 607 study areas included in the analysis. The 393 blue points are the excluded study areas according to the various criteria described above.5 Some rural study areas have more than 1 million loops. The excluded study areas fall into two major categories – those that are very large with relatively low corporate operations expense (and which do not seem to be very sensitive to study area size), and those that are very small with relatively high corporate operations expense. The FCC methodology excludes the latter, but not the former, which is a material error that makes this comparison irrational as applied to Calaveras. I will exclude both of these categories, as they are not representative of the relationship between corporate operations expense and study area size for similarly situated companies to Calaveras.

Re-estimating the kinked FCC cap for these 607 study areas yields the relationship shown in Figure 6:

A comparison of Figure 6 with Figure 1 shows that the point at which the cost levels (beyond 10,000 loops) is somewhat higher and the slope is somewhat steeper than in the original FCC model. I retained

5 Figure 5 is drawn on a logarithmic scale so that the individual study areas can be visualized – use of a linear scale would bunch almost all rural study areas in a small section of the graph due to the extreme variations in the sizes of these study areas. The logarithmic scale reduces the effect of this variability in size.

11 the 10,000 kink point, although there is some evidence that a somewhat smaller kink point fits the data better. However, the fit is almost the same and the original FCC choice of 10,000 was somewhat ad hoc at inception. The FCC stated that “[v]isual inspection of the data representing corporate operations cost per loop indicates that cost per loop appears to flatten close to 10,000 loops.”6 Similarly, as Figure 7 shows, the 10,000 kink still appears to fit the data relatively well for the 607 study areas in my revised analysis:

Figure 7: Actual Corporate Expense per Loop and the Kinked Spline vs. # Loops

Using this re-estimated cap (the blue kinked spline), presents the same issue regarding total estimated corporate operations expense that the FCC encountered (see Figure 2): total expense would decline as study area size increases over a range of study areas. Figure 8 shows this for the corrected data:

As the FCC developed its cap, it needed to establish a transition zone (shown in Figure 2) between 6,000 and 17,887 loops to smooth the relationship between the small and large study area sizes. The dashed line in Figure 8 shows the smoothed relationship for the new estimated cap: between 4,000 and 14,000 loops, the formula will be adjusted to 2.2945 + (113,042.6/#loops) in order to prevent total corporate operations expense from declining as study area sizes increase. The dashed line shows this transition.

The red dashed line is my re-estimated FCC cap, based on the 607 “similarly situated” study areas. Figure 9 shows a comparison of the original FCC cap and the revised cap for study areas up to 20,000 loops:

These adjustments are the minimal adjustments required to correct the errors in the FCC data and the unreasonableness of the unmodified FCC data in comparing a company such as Calaveras to “similarly situated” companies. As the next section explains, however, the re-estimated cap still falls short of this overall goal, and additional estimates are necessary.

Section 3: Further Adjustments Required to Reflect Calaveras’s Specific Cost Drivers

At least two additional factors must be incorporated into the corporate operations expense formula to make the cap a more valid estimate of corporate expense for Calaveras’s circumstances. Specifically, there are two critical cost drivers in Calaveras’s service territory that affect Calaveras’s specific circumstances, which must be incorporated into the analysis to make the FCC cap statistically valid among companies in different regions of the country.

First, wage rates for skilled labor vary considerably across the nation, and are significantly higher in rural parts of California, such as Calaveras’s specific area, compared with other rural regions in the country. Corporate operations activities require a range of skilled labor categories including strategic planning, human resources, accounting services, financial planning, legal expertise and other functions, and Calaveras must pay more for these functions than other companies included in the FCC cap calculation. Second, regulatory activity, which affects a significant amount of the corporate operations expense category, varies considerably across the states. This state level variation in regulatory activity must be added to the cap formula along with the occupational salary levels to make the cap a more reasonable proxy for Calaveras’s required costs.

Increased Corporate Wages Necessary in California

The BLS provides occupational salary data for a large number of nonmetropolitan regions.7 Corporate operations necessarily involve a variety of types of labor – and most of this expense category is comprised of labor costs. These include managers, financial analysts, accountants, lawyers, human resources specialists, and others. The BLS data has a wide variety of occupational categories, but to reach a reasonable outcome, two factors must be balanced – identifying specific types of occupations that are typical of the corporate operations expense accounts, and developing enough data regarding rural regions of the country for meaningful comparisons. For comparisons, we must have relatively complete data for all regions we are comparing because the occupational categories reflect different salary levels.

Eight occupational categories were identifiable that had sufficiently complete data from the BLS as well as representing specific labor types needed for corporate operations. These were: Generalized Operations Managers, Financial Managers, Human Resources Specialists, Accountants and Auditors,

7 Not all occupations are available for all regions, however, and the BLS does not disclose the reason for not reporting data (they say it could be to protect confidentiality or because data is missing for some other reason).

14 Network and Computer Systems Administrators, Lawyers, Bookkeeping, Accounting, and Auditing Clerks, and Executive Secretaries and Executive Administrative Assistants. These eight occupations provide a representative range of functions necessary to operate a company and each of these occupations has data for at least 150 different regions of the country. The average annual salary for these nine occupations is a reasonable geographic measure representing labor costs for corporate expenses.

Because the FCC cap on corporate operations expense is based on a comparison across rural study areas, this difference in the salary levels applicable to Calaveras must be taken into account before being applied as a cap for this company.

The absence of location data for many rural companies’ headquarters means that each rural study area cannot be matched to the BLS data.8 Instead, rural salary levels in rural areas of each state can be utilized.9 Using the average annual salaries for the eight occupational groups in rural areas of each state, and then averaging these eight average salaries, provides a measure of state salary differentials that may impact corporate operations expense. Figure 10 shows these average rural occupational salaries across the states:

Figure 10: Average Rural Corporate Expense Occupational Wages Across the States

8 This is possible for individual companies, such as Calaveras, but comprehensive data on headquarters locations is not available for the 600+ other rural study areas in the comparison group. 9 Puerto Rico is excluded due to lack of data for a number of occupational categories and because no Puerto Rico study areas are included in the comparison group.

15 The horizontal line is drawn at the California average – only Alaska, Connecticut, Delaware, and Maryland have higher salary levels. These statewide averages can be incorporated into the cap formula by regressing the actual corporate operations expense on two variables – the adjusted fitted kinked spline and the average occupational wages in each state. The variable for occupational wages (the average of the eight occupational categories in rural areas of each state) is statistically significant, as shown later in this section.

Increased Regulatory Intensity in California

States vary considerably in terms of regulatory activity. In 2012, 44 states report having some combination of universal service funds, including high cost, lifeline, schools and libraries, etc.10 Fewer than half of these states have specific funds to support service in high cost and rural areas. Most states retain regulatory authority over the rates and practices of rural telephone companies, while most have deregulated some of the services of the larger carriers. However, state ratemaking practices vary widely, with some states rarely conducting rate cases, while others regularly do so. While there is no definitive way to accurately measure “regulatory intensity,” there are significant differences between states, and it is clear that the amount of regulation impacts companies’ corporate operations expenses . As I will explain, Calaveras experiences a far more intensive regulatory environment – with associated increases in cost – than companies operating in other states. The FCC cap on corporate operations expense ignores these important differences between state regulatory environments.

As one representative gauge of the intensity of regulatory activity at the state level, one can look at the number of proceedings conducted at the state level that would require a small ILEC's participation . Table 1 shows how activity varies both across states and over time by identifying the number of proceedings that remain pending each year in each state:

17 These data were developed by examining publicly-available information on state commission dockets for each state, and analyzing which proceedings would be of consequence to rural ILECs such that they would be compelled to participate in those proceedings if they operated in those states. The California proceedings list is derived from the actual number of formal proceedings, excluding rate cases, in which Calaveras participated in those specific years. Including the average of five years of data avoids biasing the results due to unusual regulatory activity in any particular year. As explained below, I believe the three-year average of regulatory proceedings based on a review of actual dockets is the most reasonable data set to use.

Only industry-wide proceedings were included, not company-specific proceedings (such as rate cases). This is because rate case activities vary widely across states, and they vary widely in their formality and in their effect on individual companies. As an additional check on the accuracy of the data, a Westlaw search was conducted for the term “local exchange carrier” in state public utility commission decisions for the past 3 years. This high-level search is not limited to generic industry-wide proceedings, nor does it omit issues that give rise to multiple Commission decisions. So, the actual docket search upon which I rely is far more accurate, but the Westlaw search reveals a similar pattern for California regulatory issues that impact the small independent local exchange carrier industry compared with other states. For the regression model measuring the relative regulatory intensity across states, I will use the actual docket data for the past 3 years.

Clearly, California has more proceedings than any other state, with Iowa a distant second. If we add the number of telecommunications dockets affecting small ILECs in each state to our regression model, it is statistically significant and impactful on Calaveras’s specific corporate costs.

Table 2 only reveals one type of regulatory activity that can impact corporate expenses. State regulatory activity, however, affects business in multiple ways, including regulations pertaining to labor practices, benefits packages, licensing requirements, permitting, and other requirements. Measures of regulatory intensity are available from a number of sources. Many of these sources rate states more generally with respect to business climate – with state taxes playing a large role in the rankings. Because tax levels are already part of reported expense, such rankings risk double-counting. Instead, sources that disaggregate business climate into subcategories are preferable. Forbes11 provides such a ranking, with data on business costs and regulatory environment that are relevant for corporate operations expense. Table 2 contains the Forbes ranking for these categories, with higher numbers signifying a more intensive regulatory environment:

11 http://www.forbes.com/best-states-for-business/list/, November, 2014. The Forbes data includes categories for business costs, labor supply, regulatory environment, economic climate, growth prospects, and quality of life. The two categories used in this report are the most pertinent to corporate operations expense.

The relatively low ranking of California (46th and 43rd among the 50 states) in both categories provides further evidence that corporate expense levels in California should be higher than other states. The Forbes data will not be included in my regression analysis because business costs and occupational wages are somewhat overlapping measures, and I want to ensure there is no double-counting (in addition, the occupational wages is specific to rural areas while the Forbes business cost ranking reflects overall indicators).

Adjustments to the Cap for Wage Data and Regulatory Intensity

Given these data at the state level for occupational wages, telecommunications regulatory activity, and other regulatory factors, the cap on corporate operations expense can be modified to account for these factors. My methodology involves a regression to the actual corporate expense per line on the fitted kinked spline (that describes the relationship between corporate expense per line and the number of loops in each study area), as well as on occupational wages, and telecom dockets in each state, with a logarithmic transformation of corporate expense per line and the revised cap (it provides a better fit to the data). The regression model results in the following:

All variables are statistically significant. Occupational wages and regulatory dockets are both positively correlated with the actual corporate operations expense. In other words, these variables go a significant way towards explaining the difference between the actual corporate operations expense and the corrected FCC cap (which makes no adjustment for regulatory intensity or occupational wages).

Table 3 shows the projected (2018) corporate expense per line and the number of loops for Calaveras, along with the current FCC cap, the revised cap that corrects for the errors in the existing cap, and the cap resulting from the regression model which also includes occupational wages and regulatory intensity.

Table 3:

Actual Corporate Expense per Line, Original FCC Cap, and Revised Caps for The Calaveras

STUDY AREA # loops Projected FCC cap Revised cap Modified cap with (2018 corporate (2018) using 607 study wages and telecom per test expense per line areas dockets included year) (2018 test year) (with inflation to 2018) CALAVERAS 3500 $33.90 $35.14 $42.22 $49.99

12 In addition to the adjustments described herein, five additional study areas from the original 607 are omitted from the regression model due to missing data in the FCC’s data set. Four of these study areas are Pacific Islands (for which occupational wage data is not available) and one is a study area in New Jersey which has no non- metropolitan regions for which the BLS reports wage data.

21 Note that the 115% factor and inflationary adjustment13 have been included in both the existing FCC cap and the revised caps. The projected number of loops and actual corporate expense per loop appear in the second and third columns of Table 3. The fourth column provides the existing FCC cap – based on the formula (appearing on page 4 of this report) with inflation and the 115% reasonableness factor (established by the FCC) included. The fifth column shows the recalculated FCC cap, based on the corrections examined in Section 2 of this report. The sixth column includes the further corrections examined in Section 3 of this report.

Table 3 reveals that the current, flawed, FCC cap produces an unreasonably low level of corporate expense per line as a cap applied to Calaveras without modification. Rather than Calaveras being slightly below the FCC cap, Calaveras has corporate operations expenses far below a correctly derived cap using the FCC methodology. Known errors with the FCC model, inclusion of a reasonable comparison group, and adjustment for objective factors which influence corporate operations expense result in a significantly higher, and more reasonable, cap on these expenses.

Conclusion

As explained herein, an unmodified FCC corporate cap contains fundamental methodological errors and ignores key variables that necessarily drive Calaveras’s corporate expenses. Correcting these errors and including the variables of increased wage demands and regulatory intensity results in a more accurate corporate cap methodology to measure the reasonableness of corporate expenses in this case. The alternative, reasonable cap is $16.09 per line per month above Calaveras' 2018 test year corporate expense per line. This cap reflects that Calaveras is an extremely efficient company from an expense perspective, and more than justifies adopting its proposed corporate expense figures. In short, these data effectively demonstrate the reasonableness of the level of corporate operations expense for Calaveras, consistent with D.14-12-084.

13 Inflation is based on NECA cost study instructions (March 24, 2016) showing a GDP-CPI factor of 1.082738 for end of year 2015, and expected inflation for 2016, 2017, and 2018 of 1.2%, 1.9%, and 2%, respectively, from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (median forecasts as of March 16, 2016), accessed at https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/fomcprojtabl20160316.htm.
