Note 5. Contributed Capital A substantial portion of the property, plant and equipment in the Utility Funds was financed by special assessments, grants and other contributions. When such assets are acquired they are credited to the contributed capital account. Depreciation on contributed assets is charged against current income, but is then redistributed as a charge against the contributed capital amount. The rates charged by the City are not intended to generate sufficient income to recover the depreciation on contributed assets and replacement of these assets is expected to be financed primarily by future contributions. -15-
