17 ANNUAL REPORT OF SOUTHERN COMPANY SERVICES, INC. ------------------------------ For the Year Ended December 31, 2002 ----------------- SCHEDULE XIV ------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ------------------------------- INSTRUCTIONS: The space below is provided for important notes regarding the financial statements or any account thereof. Furnish particulars as to any significant contingent assets or liabilities existing at the end of the year. Notes relating to financial statements shown elsewhere in this report may be indicated here by reference. 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ------------------------------------------ General ------- Southern Company Services, Inc. (the "Company") follows the Uniform System of Accounts prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for service companies, as amended, effective January 1, 1980. The Company has no earnings or retained earnings since it primarily renders services at cost to its parent company, The Southern Company, and other affiliates, as further discussed in Note 2. The financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which requires the use of estimates. The actual results may differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents ------------------------ The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value. Income Taxes ------------ The Company is included in the consolidated federal income tax return with The Southern Company and its subsidiaries. Federal income tax deferrals primarily resulting from the use of accelerated depreciation are fully utilized and accounted for by the operating subsidiaries of The Southern Company. Property, Equipment, and Depreciation and Amortization ------------------------------------------------------ Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the related asset (ranging from 3 to 12 years). Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lives of the respective leases. On retirement or sale of assets, the cost of such assets and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss, if any, is credited or charged to income.

The Company's affiliates include the following: integrated Southeast utilities (Alabama Power Company, Georgia Power Company, Gulf Power Company, Mississippi Power Company, and Savannah Electric); Southern Electric Generating Company (an operating subsidiary owned equally by Alabama Power Company and Georgia Power Company); Southern Communications Services (Southern LINC) (provides digital wireless communications services to the integrated Southeast utilities and the public in the Southeast); Southern Company Energy Solutions (develops new business opportunities related to energy products and services); Southern Nuclear Operating Company (provides services to Southern Company's nuclear power plants); Southern Electric Railroad Company (provides railroad services to the integrated Southeast utilities); Southern Power Company (constructs, owns, and manages Southern Company's competitive assets and sells electricity at market-based rates in the wholesale market). Southern Telecom (provides fiber cable services within the southeast); Southern Holdings (an intermediate holding subsidiary for Southern's investments in leveraged leases, alternate fuel products, and an energy services business); and Southern Company Gas, which began operation in August 2002, is a competitive retail natural gas marketer serving Georgia. As of April 2, 2001, Mirant Corp. was spun-off from Southern Company and is no longer an affiliate.

RETIREMENT BENEFITS ------------------ The Company has a defined benefit, trusteed, pension plan that covers substantially all employees. The company also provides certain non-qualified benefit plans for a selected group of management and highly compensated individuals. The Company provides certain medical care and life insurance benefits for retired employees. Substantially all employees may become eligible for these benefits when they retire. In late 2000, as well as in 2002, Southern Company adopted several pension and post-retirement benefit plan changes that had the effect of increasing benefits to both current and future retirees.
