Prior Determination "Additional TrxVcks" October 14, 1913. To the Public Service Commission for the First District and New York Municipal Railway Corporation: Pursuant to the provisions of the CERTIFICATE dated March 19, 1913, from the Public Ser- vice Commission for the First District to the New York Munici- pal Railway Corporation, authorizing it: 'To lay additional tracks on, above or contiguous to, portions of the route or routes of its railroads within New York, ' ' etc. ; And in accordance with the terms of Article IX thereof, I hereby render my determination of the actual cost of the Plant and Structure and of the actual cost of Equipment of the sev- eral Railroads paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913. For the Broadway, Fulton Street and Myrtle Avenue Addi- tional Tracks, The actual cost of Plant and Structure (Article IX of the above mentioned Certificate) is as follows: (1) Labor and materials (2) Real estate $179.85 (3) Debt discount and expense 3,138.01 (4) Taxes 100.00 (5) Superintendence, etc 18,428.42 . (6) Interest 239,829.83 Total $261,676.11 The actual cost of Equipment is as follows : (1) Labor and materials (2) Real estate (3) Debt discount and expense (4) Taxes (5) Superintendence, etc (6) Interest Total Actual Cost of Plant and Property $261,676.11 3 Each of these parts of the actual cost of plant and structure and of the actual cost of equipment of the additional tracks is taken up hereafter in its order. They are shown as applied to the several lines of the Railroads and represent actual expen- ditures chargeable to the respective lines. It is necessary to keep the cost separate as to lines in order to provide a basis for com- puting deductions from revenue in the case of temporary opera- tion (Article XLIX, Subdivision 7, of Contract No. 4, embodied in Article X of the Certificate). The records of costs, from which this determination is made, are kept in such detail that the cost of any principal part of the Railroads may be identified so that in case of its retirement or withdrawal from service, the said cost may be withdrawn from the appropriate depreciation fund as provided under Article XLIX, Subdivision 5, of Contract No. 4, embodied in Article X of the Certificate. A summary of these records will be given in appendices as they appear. The Uniform S.ystem of Accounts as prescribed by the Public Service Commission is followed for this purpose. When there are expenditures of an executive and administra- tive nature it is impossible to allocate them to specific construction. Such expenditures made by the New York Municipal Railway Corporation I have distributed among the several lines affected in each particular case on the basis of relative estimated costs. The percentages used are given in a tabulation which represents the understanding with respect thereto between representatives of New York Municipal Railway Corporation and myself. This understanding covers all of the work provided to be done by the New York Municipal Railway Corporation under Contract No. 4 and the related certificates, including their contribution to the City's Railroad, and its terms are stated in my determination of Cost of Construction and Cost of Equipment made under Contract No. 4. It is subject to modification by me at any time that the facts indicate that it should be modified. The applica- tion of this percentage distribution accounts for all of the items herein reported.

ALFRED CRAVEN, Chief Engineer Public Service Commission for the First District. In the Matter OF THE Determination of the Chief Engineer of the Public Service Commission fori the First District under the Certifi-' cate dated March 19, 1913, from the Public Service Commission for the First District to the New York Munici- 1 pal Eailway Corporation of the actual cost of Plant and Structure and actual cost of Equipment of the Broadway, Fulton Street and Myrtle Avenue Additional Tracks, paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913. Prior Determination " Additional Tracks '' November 24, 1913. Note. This Prior Determination was first rendered by me under date of October 14, 1913, and is now revised under this date pursuant to a stipulation entered into between the New York Municipal Railway- Corporation and the Commission as noted herein. To the Public Service Commission for the First District and New York Municipal, Eailway Corporation: Pursuant to the provisions of the CEETIFICATE dated March 19, 1913, from the Public Service Commission for the First District to the New York Municipal Eail- way Corporation, authorizing it: " To lay additional tracks on, above or contiguous to, portions of the route or routes of its railroads within New York," etc. ; And in accordance with the terms of Article IX thereof, I hereby render my determination of the actual cost of the Plant and Structure and of the actual cost of Equipment of the several Rail- roads paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913. No expenditures have been apportioned to the Broadway, Ful- ton Street and Myrtle Avenue Additional Tracks which are author- ized under the Certificate for the following reasons : When there are expenditures of an executive and administra- tive nature it is impossible to allocate them to specific construction. Such expenditures may properly be distributed among the several lines affected in each particular case on the basis of relative esti- mated costs. An understanding with respect thereto between rep- resentatives of the Commission, the New York Municipal Eailway Corporation and myself, is shown in " A Schedule of Agreed Divi- sion of General Construction and Equipment Expenses," set forth in my determination under this date of Cost of Construction and Cost of Equipment under Contract 4. This understanding covers all of the work done by the New York Municipal Eailway Corpora- tion under Contract 4 and the related Certificates, including the one under which this determination is made. The expenditures on account of New York Municipal Eailway Corporation prior to March 19, 1913, were of the kind covered by the schedule just referred to and in particular, were made in ac- quiring moneys in anticipation of the signing of the Contract and the granting of the Certificates and for organization and prelim- inary legal and engineering expenses. Inasmuch as the Eailroads authorized by this Certificate are not legalized, it was requested by the New York Municipal Eailway Corporation, and deemed proper 5 by the Commission, that these preliminary expenses be applied to Reconstruction of Existing Railroads under Contract 4 for this " Prior " determination. This matter is covered by a stipulation between New York Municipal Railway Corporation and the Com- mission, dated November 18, 1913, in which the principle of the schedule above mentioned is confirmed and " In particular the Rail- way Corporation agrees that the proportionate part of such items that would properly be allocable to additional tracks and extensions (if such consents had been obtained therefor) may be allocated tem- porarily to Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Opera- tion, and that when and as the necessary constitutional consents are obtained for any additional tracks or extensions the Chief Engineer may transfer from Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Operation to the additional tracks or extensions for which such con- sents shall have been obtained the amounts which otherwise would have been allocated thereto in the first instance." A complete copy of the above mentioned stipulation is hereto annexed as an appendix. Dated November 24, 1913. ALFRED CRAVEN, Chief Engineer Public Service Commission for the First District. APPENDIX. Stipulation made this 18th day of November, 1913, by and between the Public Service Commission for the First District, hereinafter re- ferred to as the " Commission," and New York Municipal Railway Cor- poration, hereinafter referred to as the " Railway Corporation." Whereas acting under the provisions of the (1) Contract dated March 19, 1913, between the City of New York, acting by the Commission, and the Railway Corporation, known as Contract No. 4, (2) The certificate dated March 19, 1913, granted by the Commission to the Railway Corporation for additional tracks, and (3) The certificate dated March 19, 1913, granted by the Commission to the Railway Corporation for extensions. The Chief Engineer of the Commission has rendered certain determina- tions bearing date the 14th day of October, 1913, of the cost of con- struction, cost of equipment, actual cost of plant and structure and actual cost of equipment paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913; and Whereas, included in such determinations are various items of cost not susceptible of specific allocation to the various lines and subdivi- sions referred to in the contract and certificates, but which in such determinations are allocated to such lines and subdivisions in accord- ance with an empirical method of allocation; and Whereas, in accordance with such method of allocation portions of such items have been allocated to lines or subdivisions for which the necessary constitutional consents have not as yet been obtained; and Whereas such method of allocation was based in part upon the suggestion that under the contract and certificates the Chief Engineer was required to make in each determination a definite and final alloca- tion of such items despite the fact that all allocations of such items are necessarily subject to readjustment because of changing conditions arising out of the prosecution of the work under said contract and certificates ; and Whereas, the Commission and the Railway Corporation recognize the right of the Chief Engineer under said contract and certificates to allocate such items in proper proportionate parts to various lines and subdivisions for which the necessary constitutional consents shall have been obtained and thereafter, from time to time, to reallocate such items or portions thereof as may be necessary, so that as soon as practicable there shall be allocated to each line and subdivision its proper proportionate part of such items upon the basis of the rela- tive cost applicable to such line or subdivision to the cost applicable to the other lines and subdivisions as contemplated in said contract and certificates; and Whereas, the Chief Engineer has expressed his willingness to with- draw such determinations upon the request of the Commission and the Railway Corporation; and Whereas, the Commission and the Railway Corporation construe the contract and certificates as giving such right of allocation and reallocation to the Chief Engineer and enter into this stipulation not for the purpose of varying or modifying any of the provisions of such contract and certificates but for the purpose of regulating matters of detail thereimder and to avoid possible future misunderstandings. Now Thekefore, the Commission and the Railway Corporation hereby stipulate and agree as follows : First: The Commission and the Railway Corporation hereby ex- pressly recognize and confirm the right of the Chief Engineer under said contract and certificates to allocate in proper proportionate parts to the various lines and subdivisions for which the necessary constitutional con- sents shall have been obtained all such items of cost as are not suscep- tible of specific allocation, and thereafter, from time to time, to reallo- cate such items in whole or in part as may be necessary, so that as soon as practicable there shall be finally allocated to each such line and subdivision no more and no less than its proper proportionate part of such items upon the basis of the relative cost applicable to said line or subdivision to the cost applicable to the other lines and subdivisions as contemplated in said contract and certificates. Second: In the case of lines or subdivisions for which the neces- sary constitutional consents have not at the time of rendering any determination been obtained, the Chief Engineer may allocate the pro- portionate part of such items that otherwise would be allocable to such lines or subdivision, to other lines or subdivisions for which the neces- sary constitutional consents have been obtained; and thereafter, when and as the necessary constitutional consents are obtained, the Chief Engineer may transfer the amounts so allocated from the lines or subdivisions to which they have been allocated to the line or subdi- vision for which such consents shall have been obtained, so that each line or subdivision will bear its equitable and proper share of such items. In particular the Railway Corporation agrees that the propor- tionate part of such items that would properly be allocable to addi- tional tracks and extensions (if such consents had been obtained there- for) may be allocated temporarily to Reconstruction of Existing Rail- roads for Initial Operation, and that when and as the necessary con- stitutional consents are obtained for any additional tracks or extensions the Chief Engineer may transfer from Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Operation to the additional tracks or extensions for which such consents shall have been obtained the amounts which otherwise would have been allocated thereto in the first instance. Third: The Chief Engineer may withdraw the several determina- 8 tions bearing the date the 14th day of October, 1913, such withdrawal to have the same force and effect as though such determinations had not been rendered. Fourth: The time of the Chief Engineer to render the determina- tions of cost of construction, cost of equipment, actual cost of plant and structure and actual cost of equipment paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913, is hereby extended to and including the 25th day of November, 1913. Fifth: This stipulation shall be without prejudice to any right of the Commission or of the Railway Corporation under said contract or certificates to object to any determinations of the Chief Engineer. Sixth: This stipulation shall not apply to items of cost susceptible of specific allocation, the intention being that the Chief Engineer shall allocate all such items as are susceptible of specific allocation to the particular lines or subdivisions to which they shall respectively belong. Seventh: This stipulation shall continue in force and effect until the beginning of Initial Operation under said contract. In Witness Whereof the Commission has caused its official seal to be hereto affixed and attested by its Secretary and this stipulation to be signed by its Chairman, and the Railway Corporation has caused its corporate seal to be hereto affixed and attested by its Secretary and this stipulation to be signed by its President, all the day and year first above written.

Prior Determination ''Elevated Exten- sions ' ' October 14, 1913. To the Public Service Commission for the First District and New York Municipal Railway Corporation: Pursuant to the provisions of the CERTIFICATE, dated March 19, 1913, from the Public Service Commission for the First District to the New York Muni- cipal Railway Corporation, authorizing as follows: To construct the Jamaica Line, Liberty Avenue Line ; terminal yards, stations, etc. ; to acquire real estate therefor and to construct wires, cables, etc. ; And in accordance with the terms of Article IX thereof I hereby render my determination of the actual cost of Plant and Structure and of the actual cost of Equipment of the several Railroads paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913. For the Jamaica Line and the Liberty Avenue Line, The actual cost of Plant and Structure (Article IX of the above mentioned Certificate) is as follows: (1) Labor and materials (2) Real estate $134.88 (3) Debt discount and expense 2,353.51 (4) Taxes 75.00 (5) Superintendence, etc 13,821.32 (6) Interest 179,872.37 Total $196,257.08 The actual cost of Equipment is as follows : (1) Labor and materials (2) Real estate $134.88 (3) Debt discount and expense 2,353.51 (4) Taxes 75.00 (5) Superintendence, etc 13,821.33 (6) Interest 179,872.37 Total $196,257.09 Actual Cost of Plant and Property $392,514.17 Each of these parts of the actual cost of plant and structure and actual cost of equipment of elevated extensions is taken up hereafter in its order. They are shown as applied to the several lines, and represent actual expenditures chargeable to 3 the respective lines. It is necessary to keep the cost separate as to lines in order to provide a basis for computing deductions from revenue in the case of temporary operation (Article XLIX, Subdivision 7, of Contract No. 4, embodied in Article X of the Certificate) . The records of costs, from which this determination is made, are kept in such detail that the cost of any principal part of the Railroads may be identified so that in case of its retirement or withdrawal from service, the said cost may be withdrawn from the appropriate depreciation fund as provided under Article XLIX, Subdivision 5, of Contract No. 4, as embodied in Article X of the Certificate. A summary of these records will be given in appendices as they appear. The Uniform System of Accounts as prescribed by the Public Service Commission is followed for this purpose. When there are expenditures of an executive and administra- tive nature it is impossible to allocate them to specific construc- tion. Such expenditures made by the New York Municipal Rail- way Corporation I have distributed among the several lines affected in each particular case on the basis of relative estimated costs. The percentages used are given in a tabulation which represents the understanding with respect thereto between representatives of New York Municipal Railway Corporation and myself. This understanding covers all of the work provided to be done by the New York Municipal Railway Corporation under Contract No. 4 and the related certificates including their contribution to the City's Railroad and its terms are stated in my determination of Cost of Construction and Cost of Equip- ment made under Contract No. 4.

ALFRED CRAVEN, Chief Engineer Puhlic Service Commissiofi for the First District. In the Matter OF THE Determination of the Chief Engineer of the Public Service Commission fori the First District under the Certifi-| cate dated March 19, 1913, from the Public Service Commission for the First District to the New York Munici- pal Railway Corporation, of the actual cost of Plant and Structure and actual cost of Equipment of the Jamaica Line and the Liberty Avenue Line, paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913. Prior Determination "Elevated Exten- sions " November 24, 1913. Note. This Prior Determination was first rendered by me under date of October 14, 1913, and is now revised under this date pursuant to a stipulation entered into between the New York Municipal Railway Corporation and the Commission as noted herein. To the Public Service Commission for the First District and New York Municipal Railway Corporation: Pursuant to the provisions of tlie CEETIFICATE, dated March 19, 1913, from the Public Ser- vice Commission for the First District to the New York Municipal Eailway Corporation, authorizing as follows: To construct the Jamaica Line, Liberty Avenue Line ; terminal yards, stations, etc. ; to acquire real estate therefor and to construct wires, cables, etc.; And in accordance with the terms of Article IX thereof I hereby render my determination of the actual cost of Plant and Structure and of the actual cost of Equipment of the several Railroads paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913. No expenditures have been apportioned to the Jamaica Line elevated extension and the Liberty Avenue Line elevated extension which are authorized under the Certificate for the following reasons : When there are expenditures of an executive and administra- tive nature it is impossible to allocate them to specific construction. Such expenditures may properly be distributed among the several lines affected in each particular case on the basis of relative esti- mated costs. An understanding with respect thereto between rep- resentatives of the Commission, the New York Municipal Railway Corporation and myself, is shown in " A Schedule of Agreed Divi- sion of General Construction and Equipment Expenses,^' set forth in my determination under this date of Cost of Construction and Cost of Equipment under Contract 4. This understanding covers all of the work done by the New York Municipal Railway Corpora- tion under Contract 4 and the related Certificates, including the one under which this determination is made. The expenditures on account of New York Municipal Railway Corporation prior to March 19, 1913, were of the kind covered by the schedule just referred to and in particular, were made in ac- quiring moneys in anticipation of the signing of the Contract and the granting of the Certificates and for organization and prelim- inary legal and engineering expenses. Inasmuch as the Railroads authorized by this Certificate are not legalized, it was requested by the New York Municipal Railway Corporation, and deemed proper by the Commission, that these preliminary expenses be applied to Reconstruction of Existing Railroads under Contract 4 for this "Prior" determination. This matter is covered by a stipulation be- tween New York Municipal Eailway Corporation and the Commis- sion, dated November 18, 1913, in which the principle of the sched- ule above mentioned is confirmed and " In particular the Railway Corporation agrees that the proportionate part of such items that would properly be allocable to additional tracks and extensions (if such consents had been obtained therefor) may be allocated tem- porarily to Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Opera- tion, and that when and as the necessary constitutional consents are obtained for any additional tracks or extensions the Chief Engineer may transfer from Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Operation to the additional tracks or extensions for which such con- sents shall have been obtained the amounts which otherwise would have been allocated thereto in the first instance." A complete copy of the above mentioned stipulation is hereto annexed as an appendix. Dated November 24, 1913. ALFRED CRAVEN, Chief Engineer Public Service Commission for the First District. APPENDIX. Stipulation made this IStli day of November, 1913, by and between the Public Service Commission for the First District, hereinafter re- ferred to as the " Commission," and New York Municipal Railway Cor- poration, hereinafter referred to as the " Railway Corporation." Whereas acting under the provisions of the (1) Contract dated March 19, 1913, between the City of New York, acting by the Commission, and the Railway Corporation, known as Contract No. 4, (2) The certificate dated March 19, 1913, granted by the Commission to the Railway Corporation for additional tracks, and (3) The certificate dated March 19, 1913, granted by the Commission to the Railway Corporation for extensions. The Chief Engineer of the Commission has rendered certain determina- tions bearing date the 14th day of October, 1913, of the cost of con- struction, cost of equipment, actual cost of plant and structure and actual cost of equipment paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913 ; and Whereas, included in such determinations are various items of cost not susceptible of specific allocation to the various lines and subdivi- sions referred to in the contract and certificates, but which in such determinations are allocated to such lines and subdivisions in accord- ance with an empirical method of allocation; and Whe7^eas, in accordance with such method of allocation portions of such items have been allocated to lines or subdivisions for which the necessary constitutional consents have not as yet been obtained ; and Whereas such method of allocation was based in part upon the suggestion that under the contract and certificates the Chief Engineer was required to make in each determination a definite and final alloca- tion of such items despite the fact that all allocations of such items are necessarily subject to readjustment because of changing conditions arising out of the prosecution of the work under said contract and certificates ; and Whereas, the Commission and the Railway Corporation recognise the right of the Chief Engineer under said contract and certificates to allocate such items in proper proportionate parts to various lines and subdivisions for which the necessary constitutional consents shall have been obtained and thereafter, from time to time, to reallocate such items or portions thereof as may be necessary, so that as soon as practicable there shall be allocated to each line and subdivision its proper proportionate part of such items upon the basis of the rela- tive cost applicable to such line or subdivision to the cost applicable to the other lines and subdivisions as contemplated in said contract and certificates: and Whereas, the Chief Engineer has expressed his willingness to with- draw such determinations upon the request of the Commission and the Railway Corporation; and Whereas, the Commission and the Railway Corporation construe the contract and certificates as giving such right of allocation and reallocation to the Chief Engineer and enter into this stipulation not for the purpose of varying or modifying any of the provisions of such contract and certificates but for the purpose of regulating matters of detail thereunder and to avoid possible future misunderstandings. Now Therefore, the Commission and the Railway Corporation hereby stipulate and agree as follows : First: The Commission and the Railway Corporation hereby ex- pressly recognize and confirm the right of the Chief Engineer under said contract and certificates to allocate in proper proportionate parts to the various lines and subdivisions for which the necessary constitutional con- sents shall have been obtained all such items of cost as are not suscep- tible of specific allocation, and thereafter, from time to time, to reallo- cate such items in whole or in part as may be necessary, so that as soon as practicable there shall be finally allocated to each such line and subdivision no more and no less than its proper proportionate part of such items upon the basis of the relative cost applicable to said line or subdivision to the cost applicable to the other lines and subdivisions as contemplated in said contract and certificates. Second: In the case of lines or subdivisions for which the neces- sary constitutional consents have not at the time of rendering any determination been obtained, the Chief Engineer may allocate the pro- portionate part of such items that otherwise would be allocable to such lines or subdivisions, to other lines or subdivisions for which the neces- sary constitutional consents have been obtained; and thereafter, when and as the necessary constitutional consents are obtained, the Chief Engineer may transfer the amounts so allocated from the lines or subdivisions to which they have been allocated to the line or subdi; vision for which such consents shall have been obtained, so that each line or subdivision will bear its equitable and proper share of such items. In particular the Railway Corporation agrees that the propor- tionate part of such items that would properly be allocable to addi- tional tracks and extensions (if such consents had been obtained there- for) may be allocated temporarily to Reconstruction of Existing Rail- roads for Initial Operation, and that when and as the necessary con- stitutional consents are obtained for any additional tracks or extensions the Chief Engineer may transfer from Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Operation to the additional tracks or extensions for which such consents shall have been obtained the amounts which otherwise would have been allocated thereto in the first Instance. Third: The Chief Engineer may withdraw the several determina- tions bearing the date the 14th day of October, 1913, such withdrawal to have the same force and effect as though such determinations had not been rendered. 8 Fourth: The time of the Chief Engineer to render the determina- tions of cost of construction, cost of equipment, actual cost of plant and structure and actual cost of equipment paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913, is hereby extended to and Including the 25th day of November, 1913. Fifth: This stipulation shall be without prejudice to any right of the Commission or of the Railway Corporation under said contract or certificates to object to any determinations of the Chief Engineer. Sixth: This stipulation shall not apply to items of cost susceptible of specific allocation, the intention being that the Chief Engineer shall allocate all such items as are susceptible of specific allocation to the particular lines or subdivisions to which they shall respectively belong. Seventh: This stipulation shall continue in force and effect until the beginning of Initial Operation under said contract. In Witness Whereof the Commission has caused Its oflficial seal to be hereto affixed and attested by its Secretary and this stipulation to be signed by its Chairman, and the Railway Corporation has caused its corporate seal to be hereto affixed and attested by its Secretary and this stipulation to be signed by its President, all the day and year first above written.

Prior Determination *' Railroad" October 14, 1913. To the Public Service Commission for the First District, and New York Municipal Railway Corporation: Pursuant to the provisions of the contract dated March 19, 1913, between The City of New York, acting by the Public Ser- vice Commission of the First District, and New York Municipal Kailway Corporation, know^n as Contract No. 4, and in accord- ance with the terms of Article XXIX thereof, I hereby render my determination of the ''Cost of Construction" and the "Cost of Equipment" of the Railroad paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913. For the Railroad, The Cost of Construction (Article II, Subdivision 14) is as follows : (1 ) Labor and materials $25,406,350.87 (2) Real estate 2,607,748.59 (3) Debt discount and expense 7,845.04 (4) City's expenses for superintendence, etc 2,226,301.25 (5) Lessee's expenses for superintendence, etc. . . . 46,071.06 (6) Taxes 250.00 (7 ) Interest 3,890,757.43 Total $34,185,324.24 The Cost of Equipment for Initial Operation (Article II, Subdivision 15) is as follows: (1) Labor and materials (2) Real estate (3) Debt discount and expense $9,414.05 (4) Superintendence, etc 55,285.27 (5) Taxes 300.00 (6) Interest 719,489.50 Total $784,488.82 Total Cost of Construction and Cost of Equipment $34,969,813.06 3 Each of the seven parts of the Cost of Construction and the six parts of the Cost of Equipment is taken up hereafter in its order. They are shown as appHed to the several portions, or hues, of the Railroad. The City's share and the Lessee's con- tribution to Cost of Construction are shown separately, and represent actual expenditures chargeable to the respective lines, and the sum of the City's share and the Lessee's contribution as tabulated above represents the actual and necessary cost. It is necessary to keep separate the City's share and the Lessee's contribution as to parts of the Railroad in order to provide a basis for computing deductions from revenue in the case of temporary operation (Article XLIX, Subdivision 7, and Article LII). It is also necessary to separate the cost of con- struction and cost of equipment into lines of the Railroad to accord with the provisions of the contract relative to recaption. The records of costs, from which this determination is made, are kept in such detail that the cost of any principal part of the Railroad may be identified so that in case of its retirement or withdrawal from service, the said cost may be withdrawn from the appropriate depreciation fund as provided under Article XLIX, Subdivision 5. A summary of these records is given in an appendix. The Uniform System of Accounts as prescribed by the Public Service Commission is followed for this purpose.

Labor and ''Labor and materials" means the cost of con- materials, striicting the Railroad by sections under the sev- eral construction contracts which have either been entered into or may be entered into from time to time. These construction contracts cover the prosecution of the con- struction work and payment therefor. Each month the various contractors executing the contracts are paid upon the basis of monthly estimates certified to by me. The aggregate of these monthly estimates represents the cost of labor, and materials entering into construction. These monthly estimates are cus- tomarily made as of the last day of the month and cover the cost of construction as of such date. The estimates are identified by numbers, which indicate the serial order in which such esti- mates have been made. Article XXIX requires the Chief Engineer to determine the cost of construction paid or accrued prior to the date of the contract. Therefore, this covers the cost to and including March 18, 1913. For this reason it has been assumed that 18/31sts of the March construction contract regular estimates accrued prior to March 19, 1913, leaving 13/31sts of such certi- fied estimates to be entered into the cost of construction for the first quarterly determination. This is the most satisfactory method of dividing the labor and material costs for March as between the prior determination and the quarterly determination. Since the labor and^ material is based upon the section contract for construction, as already explained, it has been considered advisable to subdivide the labor and material deter- mination by sections. Also a certain arnount of subdivision IS desirable so that if the Commission should declare any part of the Railroad ready for operation, as provided under Article LII of the contract, the cost of such part to be used as a basis for the distribution of revenue could be readily determined. Exactly what parts might be declared ready for operation it is hardly feasible to say at this time. The construction contract is a reasonable unit to keep identified so that any combination may be made as required. Therefore, (1) The cost of labor and material as included in this determination for the cost of construction paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913, by sections and estimates is as follows: IG 2 ^ ooi^ooooiOOoi'^t^Meo^^iNO t^ (N ^ O O O 00 lO lO (N lO t^ (N O <*< Tf * T-H I O 1-1 CO CO CO CO OXIOCOCOIN'OCO OJOcooooTtioco C0-*<-iC^C0iOXC5 O CO O t^ 5C O (N o a 10 D lOO O5^00CiiOTt<(Z)00G0t^Tt0 lO GO CO of CO 00 CO i-r CD ^c^coooooo5ooO'-Ha>iMaot> co E2 oci a s i a T50!2;Qi-3fo^<1X><1><1><1MX! a>a>OQjaj(i>(Dai(uaia> !^.2[!S!h!2^!2!h!2^!h[5!S^^!2!^^!^ < < < < -' LO O ^ i< ^1 17 lO o O (N C0(N^O0 CO Tf lO (M rH 00 00 ^ >-o CM '^ o t> -*< O -^ C^ .^ >-H l>. 05 (-5 ,_( oj t^ t~- CO rH 00 00 00 r> 00 00 ^ a> CO N. h.

Article XI covers work susceptible of classification which is certified to under the regular estimates at the regular unit prices. Article XII covers work not susceptible of classification for which special estimates are made. The words ''regular" and "extra" are used (in the column "Certified Under") in the case of the older construction contracts. These were let on terms different from the newer ones in that the contract was for a lump sum subject to modification as in the respective contracts provided. "Regular" refers to payments made of the lump sum value of the contract and the monthly payments are made relative to the said contract value of the entire work. "Extra" refers to payments made for the work done under modification of the respective contracts. All "regular" estimates and esti- mates for "extra" work submitted regularly (the older con- struction contracts) are included in the determination as ac- cruing on the last day of the month which they cover. Special estimates covering scattered work prosecuted at various times are considered as having accrued on the date on which the esti- mate is certified. The detailed plans for construction of some of the older sec- tion contracts provide for pipe galleries, and separate contracts for such galleries accompanied the contracts for construction of the railroad. The definition of construction covers the restora- tion and reconstruction of street surfaces, sewers and of surface, subsurface and overhead and abutting structures interfered with in the building of the railroad, and all other work to be done or materials to be furnished of every nature whatsoever, necessary to the completion of the railroad structure (Chapter II of said construction contract). The cost of pipe galleries does not come within this definition and is therefore not included in the deter- mination. Real estate. "Real estate" means, as represented by the amounts which have entered into this determina- tion, the disbursements as reported by the Auditor of the Public Service Commission, covering the following necessary expendi- tures in the acquisition of properties, easements, and leases : Compensation of Commissioners of appraisal, consulting engineers, experts of appraisal of lands, buildings, machinery, etc. ; clerical, stenographic and photographic services rendered to 34 the commissioners of appraisal, printing and supplies for the same; advertising of notices of the several authorities; fees for examining and insuring titles; payments and awards together with the credit of proceeds from the rental and sales of buildings and lands. As in the case of labor and materials, a certain amount of sub- division is desirable and is given in the following tabulation: (2) Real estate represented by City's expense as included in this determination for the Cost of Construction for the period prior to March 19, 1913, is as follows : 35 1-1 eo o CD ??SS^ i "' ?5 u B ^. ^ OJ c^ d U3 t> 05 lO b- Ci CD 00 lO IN IN ^ <1 00 e o n o w Ph M 36 City's expenses The City's expenses for superintendence, for superintendence, etc., means, as represented by the amounts which have entered into this determination a portion of the payroll of the Engineering Department, determined partly from the time records as being chargeable to cost of con- struction and partly from other information available in the files of the Chief Engineer's office; also a portion of the payrolls of the Secretary's office and the other departments of the Com- mission, estimated as being chargeable to this work; also employes' disbursements; stationery, supplies and printing; rental; tele- phone and telegraph ; furniture and fixtures; instrument supplies; maps, plans, prints and photo supplies, etc. It includes also the cost of test borings. A proportion of these disbursements other than salaries was charged to the several lines on the basis of the salary charges. Besides the expenditures mentioned in the preceding paragraph as made by the Public Service Commission there has been added the value of the work done by the Board of Rapid Transit Railroad Commissioners prior to July 1st, 1907, so far as such work has been incorporated in the Dual System. This work consists of base lines, bench levels, surface topography (field and office work), sub-surface topography including cross-sections (field and office work), test borings, administrative and legal expenses, rent, supplies, etc. It includes designs for the Centre Street Loop and the Fourth Avenue Brooklyn Subway. The expenditures by the Public Service Commission during the years 1907 to 1910 inclusive were for the most part taken from the records made for the purpose of the legislative report known as the Carlisle investigation. Of the Tri-Borough Route there reported, 29 per cent, is incorporated in the Broadway- Fourth Avenue Line. The Brooklyn Loop Line and the Fourth Avenue subway were taken in their entirety. To these costs has been added a proper percentage of rent, supplies, of the Engineering Department and of administrative and legal ex- penses, etc. For the year 1911 the charges to each line were arrived at by estimation. During the year 1912, from January to May inclusive, the charges of the Engineering Department to the respective lines were arrived at by estimation; for June to December inclusive the charges are the result of records made up from time reports as to the field divisions and from partial time reports as to the 37 designs division. An estimated amount was added for the Legal and other departments of the Commission. For the year 1913 up to March 18th same conditions ruled as for June to December, 1912. Although the item for the Reconstruction of Existing Railroads (IV) is not specifically included in ''City's Expenses for Super- intendence, etc./' under the Cost of Construction of the Railroad, its determination is provided for in Article XIII of Contract 4. Interest on moneys Interest on moneys provided by the provided by the City. City has been computed in four parts : First, interest actually paid on corporate stock and notes, less credit of interest on bank balances; Second, interest computed on corporate stock interest ''deemed to bear interest at the rate specified in the last then preceding sale by the City of corporate stock"; Third, interest on City's expenses for superintendence, etc., "deemed to bear interest at the rate specified in the last then preceding sale by the City of corporate stock"; Fourth, credit of interest computed on proceeds received from the sale and from the use of real estate, "deemed to bear interest at the rate specified in the last then preceding sale by the City of corporate stock." The interest actually paid on corporate stock has been reported to the Public Service Commission by the Comptroller in a statement under date of September 30th, 1913, which gives details of moneys provided for the Centre Street Loop Lines, for the Fourth Avenue subway and for the Broadway-Lexington Avenue Route. This statement gives the amounts provided by notes prior to the sale of corporate stock and that provided by the sale of corporate stock with the dates thereof, the total interest payable at the several interest dates and the credit of interest on bank balances, also the allotments as the money was used. It was necessary to divide the interest of the Broadway- Lexington Avenue Route into three portions; First, That portion embodied in the Broadway-Fourth Avenue Line ; Second, That por- tion included in the Lexington Avenue branch of the Seventh Ave- nue-Lexington Avenue Line; Third, That portion involved by con- tract section 6 of Route 5, which is not a part of the Dual System. To do this the following assumption was made. The interest on the total of the allotted amounts at each interest date was divided on the basis of the total monthly estimates to each respective date. The following are the ratios used: 38 To To To To Mar. 1, Sept. 1, Mar. 1, Mar. 18, Line 1912 1912 1913 1913 Per Cent. Per Cent. Per Cent. Per Cent.

Broadway-Fourth Avenue Line 15.93 Lexington Avenue Branch 72 . 37 Eliminated 11.70 100.00 For the period subsequent to June 1st, 1912, we get Broadway-Fourth Avenue Line 18 . 05 Lexington Avenue Branch 81 . 95 Eliminated 100.00 Before applying these ratios the interest chargeable on ex- penditures for real estate was deducted. The application of the above ratios gives an interest charge to the Broadway- Fourth Avenue Line, as follows: Broadway Portion of Broadway-Lexington Avenue Route, Corporate Stock Interest TO March 19, 1913. Corporate Stock Interest actually paid or accrued . . $68,347 . 83 Interest on same at 4i per cent 524 . 57 Total Interest Chargeable to Cost of Con- struction $68,872.40 39 It was necessary to reduce the interest reported by the Comp- troller as paid on account of the Centre Street Loop Lines by an amount chargeable to the construction of pipe galleries. To do this the ratio of expenditures to March 19th on pipe galleries to the total expenditures on railroad and pipe galleries was applied to the total interest charge. The ratio was 1.92 per cent. Before applying this ratio deduction was made of the interest computed on payments made for real estate. The following table shows the correction: Center Street Loop-^Interest to March 19, 1913 Corporate stock interest actually paid or ac- crued $1,744,306.50 Interest on same at 4} per cent 139,556.87 $1,883,863.37 Interest on Real Estate ($2,991,062.55) (compounded) at 4i per cent. . . . 290,253.26 $290,253.26 $1,593,610.11 Deduct 1 . 20 per cent, for pipe galleries 19,123 . 32 1,574,486.79 Total Interest on Railroad and Real Estate $1,864,740.05 Credit Interest on Proceeds from Real Estate ($753,775.04) at 4| per cent 75,748.33 Total Interest Chargeable to Cost of Con- struction $1,788,991 .72 40 The same was the case with the Fourth Avenue, Brooklyn, subway. The ratio in this case was 1 . 20 per cent. The following table shows the correction: Fourth Avenue Subway Interest to March 19, 1913. Corporate Stock Interest actually paid or ac- crued $1,124,399.87 Interest on same at 4| per cent 43,023.45 $1,167,423.32 ^ Interest on Real Estate ($386,297.69) (compounded) at 4 J per cent 25,831.09 $25,831.09 Net interest chargeable to Railroad and pipe galleries $1,141,592.23 Deduct 1.92 per cent, for pipe gal- leries 21,918.57 1,119,673.66 Total Interest on Railroad and Real Estate $1,145,504.75 Credit Interest on Proceeds from Real Estate ($15,836.61) at 4i per cent 1,580.56 Net Interest Chargeable to Cost of Construction.$l, 143,924. 19 Moneys provided by other than corporate stock or corporate stock notes is "deemed to bear interest at the rate specified in the last then preceding sale by the City of corporate stock or other long term interest bearing securities." The ruling rate from 1910 to date has been 4i per cent. The rate of interest on corporate stock sold prior to 1910 averaged very close to 4i per cent., and the same rate of 4i per cent, therefore has been applied to all disbursements. Inasmuch as the exact date of the disbursements for City's expenses for superintendence on which interest has been computed is not known, it has been assumed that the expenditures for six months, as July 1st to December 31st inclusive, were made at the middle day of the period, that is, September 30th, and interest has been computed from such date.

Alfred Craven, Chief Engineer of the Public Service Commission for the First District. In the Matter OP THE Determination of the Chief Engineer of the Public Service Commission for the First District under the contract, dated March 19, 1913, between the City of New York, acting by the Pub- lic Service Commission for the First District, and New York Municipal Railway Corporation, of the cost of Reconstruction of Existing Railroads, paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913. Prior Determination ''Reconstruction op Existing Railroads. ' ' October 14, 1913. L I To the Public Service Commission for the First District and New York Municipal Railvjay Corporation: Pursuant to the provision of the contract dated IMarch 19, 1913, between the City of New York, acting by the Public Ser- vice Commission for the First District, and the New York Muni- cipal Railway Corporation, known as Contract No. 4, and in accordance with the terms of Article XIII, I hereby render my determination of the Cost of Reconstruction of Existiiig Rail- roads for Initial Operation for the period prior to March 19, 1913. Said Article XIII requires that the Cost of the Reconstruc- tion of Existing Railroads for Initial Operation shall be deter- mined by the Engineer in the same manner as the Cost of Con- struction or the Cost of Equipment of the Railroad and upon the basis of the definitions of Construction, Equipment, Addi- tions, Cost of Construction and Cost of Equipment * * *." Therefore the Cost of the Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Operation would seem to include as to Construction thereof : (1) Labor and materials (2) Real estate (3) Debt discount and expense $4,707.02 (4) City's expense for superinten- dence, etc * (5) Lessee's expense for superinten- dence, etc 27,642.63 (6) Taxes 150.00 (7) Interest 359,744.74 ^ Total $392,244.39 Hknd as to Equipment thereof: Hp (1) Labor and materials m (2) Real estate B (3) Debt, discount and expense $1,569.01 (4) Superintendence, etc 9,214.21 (5) Taxes 50.00 B (6) Interest 119,914.91 ' Total $130,748.13 Total Cost of Construction and Cost of Equipment. .$522,992.52 * City's Expense for Superintendence, etc., has been included in Cost of Construction of the Raih'oad. 3 Each' of these parts of the Cost of Construction and of Equip- ment of the Eeconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Operation is taken up hereafter in its order. They are shown as applied to the several portions, or lines, of the Existing Rail- roads, and represent actual expenditures chargeable to the respec- tive lines. It is necessary to keep the costs separate as to parts of the Existing Railroads in order to provide a basis for comput- ing deductions from revenue in the case of temporary operation (Article XLIX, Subdivision'?). The records of costs, from which this determination is made, are kept in such detail that the cost of any principal part of the Existing Railroads may be identified so that in case of its retirement or withdrawal from service, the said cost may be with- drawn from the appropriate depreciation fund as provided under Article XLIX, Subdivision 5. For this determination the only charges are of an executive and administrative nature. The Uniform System of Accounts as prescribed by the Public Service Commission is followed for this purpose. When there are expenditures of an executive and administra- tive nature it is impossible to allocate them to specific construction. Such expenditures made by the New York Municipal Railway Corporation I have distributed among the several lines affected in each particular case on the basis of relative estimated costs. The percentages used are given in a tabulation which represents the understanding with respect thereto between representatives of New York Municipal Railway Corporation and myself. This understanding covers all of the work provided to be done by the New York Municipal Railway Corporation under Contract No. 4 and the related certificates including their contribution to the City's Railroad, and its terms are stated in my determination of Cost of Construction and Cost of Equipment of the Railroad, made under this Contract No. 4. It is subject to modification by me at any time that the facts indicate that it should be modified. The application of this percentage distribution accounts for all of the items herein reported. COST OF CONSTRUCTION Debt discount ''(3) The debt discount and expense and expense, in connection with Construction, provided, however, that the debt discount and ex- pense (except in case of Additions) shall not exceed an amount equal to three per centum (3%) of the part of the cost of construction borne by the Lessee, including the cost under this paragraph (3). The cost of (3) Debt discount and expense for the respective portions of the Eeconstruction of Existing Railroads is as follows: (I) Brighton Beach Line, between Church Av. and Malbone St.. . . $470.70 (II) Brighton Beach Line, between Nep- tune Av. and Coney Island term. 470.70 (III) Sea Beach Line. . /. 1,176.76 (IV) Myrtle Avenue and Broadway Connection 235.35 (V) Lutheran Cemetery Line 235.35 (VI) Broadway Line (VII) Fulton Street Line (Vril) Myrtle Avenue Line (IX) Lexington Avenue Line (X) Fifth Avenue Line (XI) Canarsie Line (XII) Coney Island Terminal 1,176.76 (XIII) Terminals, Yards and Shops. . . 941.40 Total cost for debt discount and expense pursuant to the Con- tract prior to March 19, 1913. $4,707.02 Lessee's expense " {^) The actual and necessary net forsuperin- cost in money to the Lessee for super- tendence, etc. intendence, insurance, damages, admin- istration, engineering and legal ex- penses in and about Construction including in respect of the cost of construction for initial operation the expenses above referred to in this paragraph actually and neces- sarily incurred or payable by the Lessee in and about Construction prior to the date of this contract and in addition the actual and necessary expense incurred or payable by the Lessee in printing, engraving and certify- ing securities for Construction and the actual and neces- sary expense in organizing the Lessee.

Prior Determination *' Railroad" October 14, 1913. To the Public Service Commission for the First District, and Interhorough Rapid Transit Company: Pursuant to the provisions of the contract dated March 19, 1913, between the City of New York acting by the Public Ser- vice Commission for the First District, and Interhorough Eapid Transit Company, known as Contract No. 3, and in accordance with the terms of Article XXIX thereof, I hereby render my determination of the Cost of Construction and Cost of Equip- ment of the Railroad, paid or accrued -prior to March 19, 1913. For the Railroad and the physical connections with the Exist- ing Railroads, for Initial Operation. The Cost of Construction (Article II, Subdivision 17), is as follows : (1) Labor and materials $6,679,178 . 09 (2) Real estate 264,750.39 (3) Debt discount and expense (4) City's expenses for superinten- dence, etc 1,261,353.07 (5) Lessee's expenses for superinten- dnece, etc 271,965.01 (6) Taxes (7) Interest 377,107.80 Total $8,854,354.36 The Cost of Equipment (Articles II, Subdivision 18), is as follows : (1) Labor and materials (2) Real estate (3) Debt discount and expense (4) Superintendence, etc $55,440.00 (5) Taxes (6) Interest Total $55,440.00 Total Cost of Construction and Cost of Equipment $8,909,794.36 3 Each of the seven parts of the Cost of Construction and the six parts of the Cost of Equipment is taken up hereafter in its order. They are shown as apphed to the several portions or lines, of the Railroad. The City's share and the Lessee's con- tribution to Cost of Construction are shown separately, and represent actual expenditures chargeable to the respective lines, and the sum of the City's share and the Lessee's contribution as tabulated above represents the actual and necessary cost. It is necessary to keep separate the City's share and the Lessee's contribution as to parts of the Railroad in order to provide a basis for computing deductions from revenue in the case of temporary operation (Article XLIX, Subdivision 7, and Article LII). It is also hecessary to separate the cost of con- struction and cost of equipment into lines of the Railroad to accord with the provisions of the contract relative to recaption. The records of cost, from which this determination is made, are kept in such detail that the cost of any principal part of the Railroad may be identified so that in case of its retirement or withdrawal from service, the said cost may be withdrawn from the appropriate depreciation fund as provided under Article XLIX, Subdivision 5. A summary of these records is given in an appendix. The Uniform System of Accounts as prescribed by the Public Service Commission is followed for this purpose.

Labor and Labor and materials means the cost of con- materials, structing the Railroad by sections under the several construction contracts which have either been entered into or may be entered into from time to time. These construction contracts cover the prosecution of the con- struction work and payment therefor on a unit basis. Each month the various contractors executing the contracts are paid upon the basis of monthly estimates certified to by me. The aggregate of these monthly estimates represents the cost of labor and materials entering into construction. These monthly esti- mates are customarily made as of the last day of the month and cover the cost of construction as of such date. The estimates are identified by numbers, which indicates the serial order in which such estimates have been made. Article XXIX of the Contract requires the Chief Engineer to determine the cost of construction paid or accrued prior to the date of the contract. Therefore, this covers the cost to and including March 18, 1913. For this reason it has been assumed that 18/3 Ists of the March construction contract regular esti- mates accrued prior to March 19, 1913, leaving 13/31sts of such certified estimates to be entered into the cost of construction for the first quarterly determination. This is the most satisfactory method of dividing the labor and material costs for March as between the prior determination and the quarterly determination. Since the labor and material is based upon the section con- tracts for construction, as already explained, it has been con- sidered advisable to subdivide the labor and material determina- tion by sections. Also a certain amount of subdivision is desir- able so that if the Commission should declare any part of the Railroad ready for operation, as provided under Article LII of the Contract, the cost of such part to be used as a basis for the distribution of revenue could be readily determined. Exactly what parts might be declared ready for operation, it is hardly feasible to say at this time. The construction contract is a rea- sonable unit to keep identified so that any combination may be made as required. Therefore, (1) The cost of labor and materials as included in this deter- mination for the Cost of Construction paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913, by sections and by estimates is as follows : 11 1:1 t, H t^ CO T-l Tt< 00 05 lO 00 o 00 ^^ 00 lO o CD t^ rf 00 J^ >o (N IC CO o 00 o o CO ,_4 rH CO 1-^ ,--) Cf) 00 00 O lO lO 00 00 O CO (N S CD o * r^ r^ (N (M fO (N ^ tH o t^ fi (X) r^ fX) CO * CO 04 (X) ^ r^ lO CM M (N <*< rj< t^ 00 lO 05 lO CD t> CO ^ s >. s 5 ^ .- >.

A proportion of these disbursements other than salaries was charged to the several lines on the basis of the salary charges. Besides the expenditures mentioned in the preceding para- graph as made by the Public Service Commission there has been added the value of the work done by the Board of Rapid Transit Railroad Commissioners prior to July 1st, 1907, so far as such work has been incorporated in the Dual System. This work con- sists of base lines, bench levels, surface topography (field and office work), sub-surface topography, including cross-sections (field and office work), test borings, administrative and legal ex- penses, rent, supplies, etc. The expenditures by the Public Service Commission during the years 1907 to 1910 inclusive were for the most part taken from the records made for the purpose of the legislative report known as the Carlisle investigation. Of the Tri-Borough Route there reported, 46% is incorporated in the Lexington Avenue Branch. To these costs has been added a proper percentage of rent, sup- plies, etc., of the Engineering Department and of administrative and legal expenses, etc. For the year 1911 the charges to each line were arrived at by estimation. During the year 1912, from January to May inclusive, the charges of the Engineering Department to the respective lines were arrived at by estimation; for June to December inclusive the charges are the result of records made up from time reports, as to the field divisions and from partial time reports as to the designs division. An estimated amount was added for the Legal and other departments of the Commission. 19 For the year 1913 up to March 18th same conditions ruled as for June to December, 1912. Lessee's When there are expenditures of an executive expenditures and administrative nature it is impossible to generally. allocate them to specific construction work. All of the expenditures made by the Interborough Rapid Transit Company prior to the date of the contract, so far as they have been properly chargeable to the Railroad, have been distributed among the several lines, on the basis of relative es- timated costs. Lessee's expenses All of the Lessee's expenditures occurring for superintendence, in this determination come under the cost of construction item (5) Lessee's expenses for superintendence and cost of equipment item (4) Superinten- dence, etc., so far as the Lessee submitted them. The Lessee sub- mitted a list of vouchers for Engineering and Superintendence which when corrected came to a total of $129,405.01. . This amount was distributed under cost of construction among the several lines. The Lessee submitted also evidences of legal ex- penses and administrative charges which after eliminating the expenses of the publicity campaign aggregated $198,000.00. This amount was distributed under cost of construction and cost of equipment among the several lines. Interest on On the first amount in the preceding Lessee's money. paragraph interest has been computed at 6% to March 18th, 1913, from the date of the voucher. No interest has been computed on the second amount, as the date of disbursement for the purpose of this report has been assumed to be March 18th, 1913. Interest on Interest on moneys provided by the moneys provided City has been computed in three parts : by the City. First, interest actually paid on corporate stock and notes, less credit of interest on bank balances; second, interest computed on corporate stock interest, ' 'deemed to bear interest at the rate specified in the last then preceding sale by the City of corporate stock;" third, interest on City's expenses for superintendence, etc., ''deemed to bear interest at the rate specified in the last then preceding sale by the City of corporate stock." 20 The interest actually paid on corporate stock has been re- ported to the Public Service Commission by the Comptroller in a statement under date of September 30th, 1913, which gives details of moneys provided for the Broadway-Lexington Avenue Route as well as for others. This statement gives the amounts provided by notes prior to the sale of corporate stock and that provided by sale of corporate stock, with the dates thereof; total interest payable at the several interest dates and the credit of interest on bank balances; also the allotments as the money was required. It was necessary to divide the interest of the Broadway-Lex- ington Avenue Route into three portions; first, that portion in- cluded in the Lexington Avenue Branch of the Seventh Avenue- Lexington Avenue Line; second, that portion embodied in the Broadway-Fourth Avenue Line; and third, that portion involved by contract section 6 of Route 6, which is not a part of the Dual System. To do this the following assumption was made. The interest on the total of the allotted amounts at each interest date was divided on the basis of the total monthly estimates to each respective date. Following are the ratios used: To To To To Line March 1, Sept. 1, March 1, March 18, 1912 1912 1913 1913 Per Cent. Per Cent. Per Cent. Per Cent. Lexington Avenue Branch 81.91 79.57 73.74 73.74 Broadway-Fourth Avenue 33 15.79 24.31 24.31 Eliminated 17.76 4.64 1.95 1.95 100.00 100.00 100.00 100.00 Interest on unallotted amounts was assumed to be chargeable proportionally to the sum of the contract value of each contract section divided by the number of months required to complete, giving the following ratios applied up to June 1st, 1912: Per Cent. Lexington Avenue Branch 72 . 37 Broadway-Fourth Avenue^Line 15.93 Eliminated '. 11 .70 100.00 21 For the period subsequent to June 1st, 1912, the ratios were Per Cent. Lexington Avenue Branch 81 . 95 Broadway-Fourth Avenue Line 18 . 05 EHminated 100.00 Before applying these ratios the interest chargeable on expendi- tures for real estate was deducted. The application of the above ratios gives an interest charge to the Lexington Avenue Branch, as summarized on the following page. Moneys provided by other than corporate stock or corporate stock notes is ''deemed to bear interest at the rate specified in the last then preceding sale by the City of corporate stock or other long term interest bearing securities." The ruling rate from 1910 to date has been 4i per cent. The rate of interest on corporate stock sold prior to 1910 averaged very close to 4i per cent, and the same rate of 4i per cent, therefore has been applied to all disbursements. Inasmuch as the exact date of the disburse- ments for City's expenses for Superintendence, etc., on which interest has been computed is not known, it has been assumed that the expenditures for six months, as July 1st to December 31st inclusive, were made at the middle day of the period, that is, September 30th, and interest has been computed from such date. 22 o ^ _ a <1) c a ;^ Q 3 ^ 0. cS m a o -i^ ro o a S H ^ o o -s ^ fl "^ O -2 o a >> b a> ^ !2 0) ^ '3 03 >> a s S O M >i n 'd ^ o to t^ 1 o *^ 12 CI 00 o c3 o IN r- t^ o o 3 O t^ O CO CO c CO lO O CO O O TlH_ GO rH Cvf ^ o CO CO 05 CO tH o >0 rt< iCi O CO O 05 rj< (N tH o pq c !5 TJ O =3 -I 12 02 (> H a t> 23 UNIFORM SYSTEM OF ACCOUNTS The details of the Costs hereinbefore set forth should be classified in accordance with the Uniform System of Accounts prescribed for street and electric railways by the Public Service Commission in its order of December 8, 1908, as follows: For the Railroad for Initial Operation, The Cost of Construction is as follows: Lessee 's City's Share.

Article XI covers work susceptible of classification which is certified to under the regular estimates at the regular unit prices. Article XII covers work not susceptible of classification for which special esti- mates are made. The words " regular " and " extra '' are used (in the column "Certified Under ^') in the case of the older construction contracts. These were let on terms different from the newer ones in that the contract was for a lump sum subject to modification as in the respective contracts provided. " Regular " refers to payments made of the lump sum value of the contract and the monthly payments are made relative to the said contract value of the entire work. " Extra " refers to payments made for the work done under modification of the respective contracts. All " regular " estimates and estimates for " extra " work submitted regularly (the older construction contracts) are included in the determination as accruing on the last day of the month which they cover. Special estimates covering scattered work prosecuted at various times are considered as having accrued on the date on which the estimate is certified- The detailed plans for construction of some of the older sec- tion contracts provide for pipe galleries, and separate contracts for such galleries accompanied the contracts for construction of the railroad. The definition of construction covers the restora- tion and reconstruction of street surfaces, sewers and of surface, subsurface and overhead and abutting structures interfered with in the building of the railroad, and all other work to be done or materials to be furnished of every nature whatsoever, necessary to the completion of the railroad structure (Chapter II of said construction contract). The cost of pipe galleries does not come within this definition and is therefore not included in the deter- mination. " Real estate " means, as represented by the amounts which have entered into this determina- tion, the disbursements as reported by the Auditor of the Public Service Commission, covering the following necessary expendi- tures in the acquisition of properties, easements, and leases: Compensation of commissioners of appraisal, consulting en- gineers, experts of appraisal of lands, buildings, machinery, etc. ; clerical, stenographic and photographic services rendered to the commissioners of appraisal, printing and supplies for the same ; 32 advertising of notices of the several authorities ; fees for examining and insuring titles ; payments and awards together with the credit of proceeds from the rental and sales of buildings and lands. As in the case of labor and materials, a certain amount of sub- division is desirable and is given in the following tabulation: (2) Eeal ^estate represented by City's expense as included in this determination for the Cost of Construction for the period prior to March 19, 1913, is as follows: 33 O "3 CO O (N t^ 'O ,-H CO lO <0 T O 1-H Ph m ,_( t^ IN 03 (N "*.

A proportion of these disbursements other than salaries was charged to the several lines on the basis of the salary charges. Besides the expenditures mentioned in the preceding paragraph as made by the Public Service Commission there has been added the value of the work done by the Board of Rapid Transit Eailroad Commissioners prior to July 1st, 1907, so far as such work has been incorporated in the Dual System. This work consists of base lines, bench levels, surface topography (field and office work), sub-surface topography including cross-sections (field and office work), test borings, administrative and legal expenses, rent, sup- plies, etc. It includes designs for the Centre Street Loop and the Fourth Avenue Brooklyn Subway- The expenditures by the Public Service Commission during the years 1907 to 1910 inclusive were for the most part taken from the records made for the purpose of the legislative report known as the Carlisle investigation. Of the Tri-Borough Route there reported, 29 per cent, is incorporated in the Broadway- Fourth Avenue Line. The Brooklyn Loop Line and the Fourth Avenue Subway were taken in their entirety. To these costs has been added a proper percentage of rent, supplies, of the Engineering Department and of administrative and legal ex- penses, etc. For the year 1911 the charges to each line were arrived at by estimation. During the year 1912, from January to May inclusive, the charges of the Engineering Department to the respective lines were arrived at by estimation; for June to December inclusive the charges are the result of records made up from time reports as to the field divisions and from partial time reports as to the designs division. An estimated amount was added for the Legal and other departments of the Commission. For the year 1913 up to March 18th same conditions ruled as for June to December, 1912. Although the item for the Eeconstruction of Existing Eailroads (IV) is not specifically included in " City^s Expenses for Super- intendence, etc./' under the Cost of Construction of the Eailroad, its determination is provided for in Article XIII of Contract 4. Interest on moneys provided by the Interest on moneys r^-. , , x n ^ ^ . , , p,. City has been computed m tour parts : y y' First, interest actually paid on corporate stock and notes, less credit of interest on bank balances; Second, interest computed on corporate stock interest " deemed to bear interest at the rate specified in the last then preceding sale by the City of corporate stock '' ; Third, interest on City's expenses for superintendence, etc., " deemed to bear interest at the rate speci- fied in the last then preceding sale by the City of corporate stock " ; Fourth, credit of interest computed on proceeds received from the sale and from the use of real estate, ^'deemed to bear interest at the rate specified in the last then preceding sale by the City of corporate stock." The interest actually paid on corporate stock has been reported to the Public Service Commission by the Comptroller in a statement under date of September 30th, 1913, which gives details of moneys provided for the Centre Street Loop Lines, for the Fourth Avenue Subway and for the Broadway-Lexington Avenue Route. This statement gives the amounts provided by notes prior to the sale of corporate stock and that provided by the sale of corporate stock with the dates thereof, the total interest payable at the several interest dates and the credit of interest on bank balances, also the allotments as the money was used. It was necessary to divide the interest of the Broadway- Lexington Avenue Eoute into three portions: First, That portion embodied in the Broadway-Fourth Avenue Line ; Second, That por- tion included in the Lexington Avenue branch of the Seventh Ave- nue-Lexinsrton Avenue Line ; Third, That portion involved by con- tract section 6 of Eoute 5, which is not a part of the Dual System. To do this the following assumption was made. The interest on the total of the allotted amounts at each interest date was divided on the basis of the total monthly estimates to each respective date. The following are the ratios used : 36 To To To To Mar. 1, Sept. 1, Mar. 1, Mar. 18, Line 1912 1912 1913 1913 Per Cent. Per Cent. Per Cent.

Broadway-Fourth Ayenue Line 15.93 Lexington Ayenue Branch 72.37 Eliminated 11 . 70 100.00 For the period subsequent to June 1st, 1912, we get : Broadway-Fourth Ayenue Line 18.05 Lexington Avenue Branch 81.95 Eliminated 100.00 Before applying these ratios the interest chargeable on ex- penditures for real estate was deducted. The application of the aboye ratios giyes an interest charge to the Broadway-Fourth Ayenue Line, as follows: Broadway Portion of Broadway-Lexixgton Avenue Route, Corporate Stock Interest TO March 19, 1913. Corporate Stock Interest actually paid or accrued. . $68,347.83 Interest on same at 4i/4 per cent 524. 57 Total Interest Chargeable to Cost of Construc- tion $68,872.40 37 It was necessary to reduce the interest reported by the Comp- troller as paid on account of the Centre Street Loop Lines by an amount chargeable to the construction of pipe galleries. To do this the ratio of expenditures to March 19th on pipe galleries to the total expenditures on railroad and pipe galleries was applied to the total interest charge. The ratio was 1.92 per cent. Before applying this ratio deduction was made of the interest computed on payments made for real estate. The following table shows the correction : Ceis^tre Street Loop Interest to March 19, 1913.

The ruling rate from 1910 to date has been 4i/^ per cent. The rate of interest on corporate stock sold prior to 1910 averaged very close to 4^ ' per cent., and the same rate of 4^ per cent, therefore has been applied to all disbursements. Inasmuch as the exact date of the disbursements for City's expenses for superintendence on which interest has been computed is not known, it has been assumed that the expenditures for six months, as July 1st to December 31st inclusive, were made at the middle day of the period, that is, September 30th, and interest has been computed from such date.

Alfred Craven, Chief Engineer of the Public Service Commission for the First District. 52 In the Matter OF THE Determination of the Chief Engineer of the Public Service Commission for the First District under the contract, dated March 19, 1913, between The City of New York, acting by the Pub- lic Service Commission for the First | District, and New York Municipal Eailway Corporation, of the cost of Reconstruction of Existing Railroads, paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913. Prior Determination "Reconstruction of Existing Railroads,^^ November 24, 1913. To the Public Service Commission for the First District and New York Municipal Railway Corporation: Pursuant to the provisions of the contract dated March 19, 1913, between the City of New York, acting by the Public Service Commission for the First District, and the ISTew York Municipal Eailway Corporation, known as Contract No. 4, and in accord- ance with the terms of Article XIII, I hereby render my determi- nation of the Cost of Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Operation for the period prior to March 19, 1913. Said Article XIII requires that "the Cost of the Reconstruc- tion of Existing Eailroads for Initial Operation shall be deter- mined by the Engineer in the same manner as the Cost of Con- struction or the Cost of Equipment of the Railroad and upon the basis of the definitions of Construction, Equipment, Addi- tions, Cost of Construction and Cost of Equipment * * */' Therefore the Cost of the Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Operation would seem to include as to Construction thereof : (1) Labor and materials (2) Real estate $449.61 (3) Debt discount and expense (4) City's expense for superintend- ence, etc * (5) Lessee's expense for superintend- ence, etc 72,786.73 (6) Taxes 337.50 (7) Interest " 809,425.67 Total $882,999.51 and as to Equipment thereof: ( 1 ) Labor and materials (2) Real estate (3) Debt discount and expense (4) Superintendence, etc $24,262.24 (5) Taxes 112.50 (6) Interest 269,808.55 Total $294,183.29 Total Cost of Construction and Cost of Equipment. .$1,177,182.80 * City's Expense for Superintendence, etc., has been included in Cost of Construction of the Railroad. 3 Each of these parts of the Cost of Construction and of Equip- ment of the Reconstruction of Existing Eailroads for Initial Opera- tion is taken up hereafter in its order. They are shown as applied to the several portions, or lines, of the Existing Eailroads, and represent actual expenditures chargeable to the respective lines. It is necessary to keep the costs separate as to parts of the Existing Eailroads in order to provide a basis for computing deductions from revenue in the case of temporary operation (Article XLIX, Sub- division 7). The records of costs, from which this determination is made, are kept in such detail that the cost of any principal part of the Existing Eailroads may be identified so that in case of its retire- ment or withdrawal from service, the said cost may be withdrawn from the appropriate depreciation fund as provided under Article XLIX, Subdivision 5. For this determination the only charges are of an executive and administrative nature. The Uniform System of Accounts as prescribed by the Public Service Commission is fol- lowed for this purpose. When there are expenditures of an executive and administra- tive nature it is impossible to allocate them to specific construction. Such expenditures may properly be distributed among the several lines affected in each particular case on the basis of relative esti- mated cost. An understanding with respect thereto between rep- resentatives of the Commission, New York Municipal Eailway Cor- poration and myself, is shown in ^^ A Schedule of Agreed Divi- sion of General Construction and Equipment Expenses," set forth in my determination under this date of Cost of Construction and Cost of Equipment of the Eailroad under Contract 4. This under- standing covers all of the work done by New York Municipal Eail- way Corporation under Contract 4 and the related Certificates. The expenditures on account of New York Municipal Eailway Corporation prior to March 19, 1913, were of the kind covered by the schedule just referred to and in particular were made in ac- quiring moneys in anticipation of the signing of the Contract and the granting of the Certificates and for organization and prelim- inary legal and engineering expenses. Except as to that portion chargeable to " Cost of Construction " and " Cost of Equipment " of the Eailroad, all of the said expenditures have been applied to Eecon- struction of Existing Eailroads, for the reason that it was requested by New York Municipal Eailway Corporation, and deemed proper by the Commission, that these preliminary expenses be applied to Reconstruction of Existing Eailroads under Contract 4 for this " Prior '' determination. This matter is covered by a stipulation be- tween New York Municipal Railway Corporation and the Commis- sion, dated November 18, 1913, in which the principle of the sched- ule above mentioned is confirmed and " In particular the Railway Corporation agrees that the proportionate part of such items that would properly be allocable to additional tracks and extensions (if such consents had been obtained therefor) may be allocated tem- porarily to Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Opera- tion, and that when and as the necessary constitutional consents are obtained for any additional tracks or extensions the Chief Engineer may transfer from Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Operation to the additional tracks or extensions for which such con- sents shall have been obtained the amounts which otherwise would have been allocated thereto in the first instance/' A complete copy of the above mentioned stipulation is hereto annexed as an appendix.

The stipulation hereinbefore mentioned, affecting the disposition of these expendi- tures in the " prior " determinatiou, is as follows: 11 Stipulation made this IStli day of November, 1913, by and between the Public Service Commission for the First District, hereinafter re- ferred to as the " Commission," and New York Municipal Railway Cor- poration, hereinafter referred to as the " Railway Corporation." Whereas acting under the provisions of the (1) Contract dated March 19, 1913, between the City of New York, acting by the Commission, and the Railway Corporation, known as Contract No. 4. (2) The certificate dated March 19, 1913, granted by the Commission to the Railway Corporation for additional tracks, and (3) The certificate dated March 19, 1913, granted by the Commission to the Railway Corporation for extensions. The Chief Engineer of the Commission has rendered certain determina- tions bearing date the 14th day of October, 1913, of the cost of con- struction, cost of equipment, actual cost of plant and structure and actual cost of equipment paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913 ; and Whereas, included in such determinations are various items of cost not susceptible of specific allocation to the various lines and subdivi- sions referred to in the contract and certificates, but which in such determinations are allocated to such lines and subdivisions in accord- ance with an empirical method of allocation ; and Whereas, in accordance with such method of allocation portions of such items have been allocated to lines or subdivisions for which the necessary constitutional consents have not as yet been obtained ; and Whe?'eas such method of allocation was based in part upon the suggestion that under the contract and certificates the Chief Engineer was required to make in each determination a definite and final alloca- tion of such items despite the fact that all allocations of such items are necessarily subject to readjustment because of changing conditions arising out of the prosecution of the work under said contract and certificates ; and Whereas, the Commission and the Railway Corporation recognize the right of the Chief Engineer under said contract and certificates to allocate such items in proper proportionate parts to various lines and subdivisions for which the necessary constitutional consents shall have been obtained and thereafter, from time to time, to reallocate such items or portions thereof as may be necessary, so that as soon as practicable there shall be allocated to each line and subdivision its proper proportionate part of such items upon the basis of the rela- tive cost applicable to such line or subdivision to the cost applicable to the other lines and subdivisions as contemplated in said contract and certificates; and 12 Whereas, the Chief Engineer has expressed his willingness to with- draw such determinations upon the request of the Commission and the Railway Corporation; and Whereas, the Commission and the Railway Corporation construe the contracts and certificates as giving such right of allocation and reallocation to the Chief Engineer and enter into this stipulation not for the purpose of varying or modifying any of the provisions of such contract and certificates but for the purpose of regulating matters of detail thereunder and to avoid possible future misunderstandings. Now Therefore, the Commission and the Railway Corporation hereby stipulate and agree as follows : First: The Commission and the Railway Corporation hereby ex- pressly recognize and confirm the right of the Chief Engineer under said contract and certificates to allocate in proper proportionate parts to the various lines and subdivisions for which the necessary constitutional con- sents shall have been obtained all such items of cost as are not suscep- tible of specific allocation, and thereafter, from time to time, to reallo- cate such items in whole or in part as may be necessary, so that as soon as practicable there shall be finally allocated to each such line and subdivision no more and no less than its proper proportionate part of such items upon the basis of the relative cost applicable to said line or subdivision to the cost applicable to the other lines and subdivisions as contemplated in said contract and certificates. Second: In the case of lines or subdivisions for which the neces- sary constitutional consents have not at the time of rendering any determination been obtained, the Chief Engineer may allocate the pro- portionate part of such items that otherwise would be allocable to such lines or subdivisions to other lines or subdivisions for which the neces- sary constitutional consents have been obtained ; and thereafter, when and as the necessary constitutional consents are obtained, the Chief Engineer may transfer the amounts so allocated from the lines or subdivisions to which they have been allocated to the line or subdi- vision for which such consents shall have been obtained, so that each line or subdivision will bear its equitable and proper share of such items. In particular the Railway Corporation agrees that the pro- portionate part of such items that would properly be allocable to additional tracks and extensions (if such consents had been obtained therefor) may be allocated temporarily to Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Operation, and that when and as the necessary con- stitutional consents are obtained for any additional tracks or extensions the Chief Engineer may transfer from Reconstruction of Existing Railroads for Initial Operation to the additional tracks or extensions for which such consents shall have been obtained the amounts which otherwise would have been allocated thereto in the first instance. Third: The Chief Engineer may withdraw the several determina- tions bearing date the 14th day of October, 1913, such withdrawal to have the same force and effect as though such determinations had not been rendered. 13 Fourth: The time of the Chief Engineer to render the determina- tions of cost of construction, cost of equipment, actual cost of plant and structure and actual cost of equipment paid or accrued prior to March 19, 1913, is hereby extended to and including the 25th day of November, 1913. Fifth: This stipulation shall be without prejudice to any right of the Commission or of the Railway Corporation under said contract or certificates to object to any determination of the Chief Engineer. Sixth: This stipulation shall not apply to items of cost susceptible of specific allocation, the intention being that the Chief Engineer shall allocate all such items as are susceptible of specific allocation to the particular lines or subdivisions to which they shall respectively belong. Seventh: This stipulation shall continue in force and effect until the beginning of Initial Operation under said contract. In Witness Whereof the Commission has caused its oflicial seal to be hereto aflixed and attested by its Secretary and this stipulation to be signed by its Chairman, and the Railway Corporation has caused its corporate seal to be hereto affixed and attested by its Secretary and this stipulation to be signed by its President, all the day and year first above written. , PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION FOR THE FIRST DISTRICT, [SEAL OF THE by Edwabd E.
