Description
We are asked to review a decision and order of the Public Utilities Commission allowing a rate increase for telephone and related services provided by the Hawaiian Telephone Company. The Company sought specific approval of revised intrastate rate schedules it claimed were projected to increase intrastate revenues by approximately $47,600,000 and "produce [an] 8.6% rate of return on the average intrastate rate base for the test year 1982." After lengthy contested proceedings, the Commission approved instead rate schedules it found would increase revenues by $27,121,000 and produce a 9.18% rate of return. The Company appeals, charging the Commission erred: (1) "in failing to find a fair rate of return," (2) "in failing to provide the Company an opportunity to earn a fair return on its intrastate rate base," (3) "by making an unsupported and unlawful Separation Adjustment," and (4) "in awarding a rate increase sufficient only to produce an annual revenue increase of $27,121,000." Finding no merit in the claims of error, we affirm the decision and order.
