(1) Generally includes commercial and industrial customers with a demand of 200 kilowatts or less.

(2) Generally includes commercial and industrial customers with a demand of more than 200 kilowatts.

In addition to the variations in weather from year to year, fluctuations in economic conditions within the service territory and elsewhere can impact customer usage, particularly for industrial and wholesale customers. Wholesale sales are impacted by market prices for energy relative to the incremental cost to generate power.

There are seasonal variations in MidAmerican Energy's electric business that are principally related to the use of electricity for air conditioning and the related effects of weather. Typically, 35-40% of MidAmerican Energy's regulated electric revenue is reported in the months of June, July, August and September.

The annual hourly peak demand on MidAmerican Energy's electric system usually occurs as a result of air conditioning use during the cooling season. Peak demand represents the highest demand on a given day and at a given hour. On August 28, 2013, retail customer usage of electricity caused an hourly peak demand of 4,659 MW on MidAmerican Energy's electric distribution system, which is 93 MW less than the record hourly peak demand of 4,752 MW set July 19, 2011.

(1) Facility Net Capacity represents (except for wind-powered and hydroelectric generating facilities, which are nominal ratings) total facility accredited net generating capacity based on MidAmerican Energy's accreditation approved by the MISO. A wind turbine generator's nominal rating is the manufacturer's contractually specified capability (in MW) under specified conditions. The accreditation of the wind-powered generating facilities totaled 286 MW and is considerably less than the nominal ratings due to the varying nature of wind. Additionally, the Moline hydroelectric generating facilities were not accredited by the MISO for 2013 due to two of the units being out of service. Net Owned Capacity indicates MidAmerican Energy's ownership of Facility Net Capacity.

(2) MidAmerican Energy currently anticipates retiring George Neal Unit Nos. 1 and 2 and Walter Scott, Jr. Unit Nos. 1 and 2 coal-fueled generating facilities between 2015 and 2016. Additionally, MidAmerican Energy currently plans to limit Riverside Unit Nos. 3 and 5 to natural gas combustion by March 31, 2015. Refer to "Environmental Laws and Regulations" in Item 7 of this Form 10-K for further discussion.

(3) Facility Net Capacity and Net Owned Capacity for projects under construction each represent the estimated nominal ratings.

The following table shows the percentages of MidAmerican Energy's total energy supplied by energy source for the years ended December 31:

	2013		2012		2011
Coal	55	%	58	%	64	%
Nuclear	12		11		11
Natural gas	1		2		1
Wind and other(1)	22		19		13
Total energy generated	90		90		89
Energy purchased - short-term contracts and other	9		8		10
Energy purchased - long-term contracts	1		2		1
	100	%	100	%	100	%

(1) All or some of the renewable energy attributes associated with generation from these generating facilities may be: (a) used in future years to comply with renewable portfolio standards or other regulatory requirements or (b) sold to third parties in the form of renewable energy credits or other environmental commodities.

The percentage of MidAmerican Energy's energy supplied by energy source varies from year to year and is subject to numerous operational and economic factors such as planned and unplanned outages, fuel commodity prices, fuel transportation costs, weather, environmental considerations, transmission constraints, and wholesale market prices of electricity. When factors for one energy source are less favorable, MidAmerican Energy must place more reliance on other energy sources. For example, MidAmerican Energy can generate more electricity using its low cost wind-powered generating facilities when factors associated with these facilities are favorable. When factors associated with wind resources are less favorable, MidAmerican Energy must increase its reliance on more expensive generation or purchased electricity. MidAmerican Energy manages certain risks relating to its supply of electricity and fuel requirements by entering into various contracts, which may be accounted for as derivatives, including forwards, futures, options, swaps and other agreements. Refer to General Regulation in this Item 1 for a discussion of energy cost recovery by jurisdiction and to Item 7A in this Form 10-K for a discussion of commodity price risk and derivative contracts.

All of the coal-fueled generating facilities operated by MidAmerican Energy are fueled by low-sulfur, western coal from the Powder River Basin in northeast Wyoming. MidAmerican Energy's coal supply portfolio includes multiple suppliers and mines under short-term and multi-year agreements of varying terms and quantities through 2016. MidAmerican Energy believes supply from these sources is presently adequate and available to meet MidAmerican Energy's needs. MidAmerican Energy's coal supply portfolio has all of its expected 2014 requirements under fixed-price contracts. MidAmerican Energy regularly monitors the western coal market for opportunities to enhance its coal supply portfolio.

MidAmerican Energy has a multi-year long-haul coal transportation agreement with BNSF Railway Company ("BNSF"), an affiliate company, for the delivery of coal to all of the MidAmerican Energy-operated coal-fueled generating facilities other than the George Neal Energy Center. Under this agreement, BNSF delivers coal directly to MidAmerican Energy's Walter Scott, Jr. Energy Center and to an interchange point with Canadian Pacific Railway for short-haul delivery to the Louisa and Riverside Energy Centers. MidAmerican Energy has a multi-year long-haul coal transportation agreement with Union Pacific Railroad Company for the delivery of coal to the George Neal Energy Center.

MidAmerican Energy is a 25% joint owner of Quad Cities Generating Station Units 1 and 2 ("Quad Cities Station"), a nuclear power plant. Exelon Generation Company, LLC ("Exelon Generation"), the 75% joint owner and the operator of Quad Cities Station, is a subsidiary of Exelon Corporation. Approximately one-third of the nuclear fuel assemblies in each reactor core at Quad Cities Station is replaced every 24 months. MidAmerican Energy has been advised by Exelon Generation that the following requirements for Quad Cities Station can be met under existing supplies or commitments: uranium requirements through 2015 and partial requirements through 2020; uranium conversion requirements through 2020; enrichment requirements through 2017 and partial requirements through 2028; and fuel fabrication requirements through 2021. MidAmerican Energy has been advised by Exelon Generation that it does not anticipate it will have difficulty in contracting for uranium, uranium conversion, enrichment or fabrication of nuclear fuel needed to operate Quad Cities Station during these time periods.

MidAmerican Energy uses natural gas and oil as fuel for intermediate and peak demand electric generation, igniter fuel, transmission support and standby purposes. These sources are presently in adequate supply and available to meet MidAmerican Energy's needs.

MidAmerican Energy owns more wind-powered generating capacity than any other United States rate-regulated electric utility and believes wind-powered generation offers a viable, economical and environmentally prudent means of supplying electricity and complying with laws and regulations. Pursuant to ratemaking principles approved by the IUB, all of MidAmerican Energy's wind-powered generating facilities in service at December 31, 2013, are authorized to earn a fixed rate of return on equity over their useful lives ranging from 11.625% to 12.2% in any future Iowa rate proceeding. Renewable resources have low to no emissions and require little or no fossil fuel. MidAmerican Energy's wind-powered generating facilities are eligible for federal renewable electricity production tax credits for 10 years from the date the facilities are placed in service. Production tax credits for MidAmerican Energy's currently eligible wind-powered generating facilities will begin expiring in 2014, with final expiration in 2023.

MidAmerican Energy sells and purchases electricity and ancillary services related to its generation and load in wholesale markets pursuant to the tariffs in those markets. MidAmerican Energy participates predominantly in the MISO energy and ancillary service markets, which provide MidAmerican Energy with wholesale opportunities over a large market area. MidAmerican Energy can enter into wholesale bilateral transactions in addition to market activity related to its assets. MidAmerican Energy is authorized to participate in the Southwest Power Pool, Inc. and PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. ("PJM") markets and can contract with several other major transmission-owning utilities in the region. MidAmerican Energy can utilize both financial swaps and physical fixed-price electricity sales and purchases contracts to reduce its exposure to electricity price volatility.

MidAmerican Energy's total net generating capability accredited by MISO in the summer of 2013 was 5,412 MW, including a reduction for 89 MW of net capacity sales. Accredited net generating capability represents the amount of generation available to meet the requirements of MidAmerican Energy's retail customers and consists of MidAmerican Energy-owned generation, certain customer "behind the meter" generators and the net amount of capacity purchases and sales. Accredited capacity may vary from the nominal, or design, capacity ratings, particularly for wind turbines whose output is dependent upon wind levels at any given time. Additionally, the actual amount of generating capacity available at any time may be less than the accredited capacity due to regulatory restrictions, transmission constraints, fuel restrictions and generating units being temporarily out of service for inspection, maintenance, refueling, modifications or other reasons.

Transmission

Electricity from MidAmerican Energy's generating facilities and purchased electricity is delivered to wholesale markets and its retail customers via the transmission facilities of MidAmerican Energy and others. MidAmerican Energy participates in the MISO energy and ancillary services markets as a transmission-owning member and, accordingly, operates its transmission assets at the direction of the MISO. The MISO manages its energy and ancillary service markets using reliability-constrained economic dispatch of the region's generation. For both the day-ahead and real-time (every five minutes) markets, the MISO analyzes generation commitments to provide market liquidity and transparent pricing while maintaining transmission system reliability by minimizing congestion and maximizing efficient energy transmission. Additionally, through its FERC-approved open access transmission tariff ("OATT"), the MISO performs the role of transmission service provider throughout the MISO footprint and administers the long-term planning function. Costs of the MISO and related costs of the participants are shared among the participants through a number of mechanisms in accordance with the MISO OATT.

Regulated Natural Gas Operations

MidAmerican Energy is engaged in the procurement, transportation, storage and distribution of natural gas for customers in its service territory. MidAmerican Energy purchases natural gas from various suppliers and contracts with interstate natural gas pipelines for transportation of the gas to MidAmerican Energy's service territory and for storage and balancing services. MidAmerican Energy sells natural gas and delivery services to end-use customers on its distribution system; sells natural gas to other utilities, municipalities and energy marketing companies; and transports natural gas through its distribution system for end-use customers who have independently secured their supply of natural gas. During 2013, 48% of the total natural gas delivered through MidAmerican Energy's distribution system was associated with transportation service.

Customers

The percentages of natural gas sold to retail customers by jurisdiction for the years ended December 31 were as follows:

	2013		2012		2011
Iowa	76	%	76	%	76	%
South Dakota	13		13		13
Illinois	10		10		10
Nebraska	1		1		1

Total Dth of transportation service (in thousands)	78,208		73,675		73,045
Total average number of retail customers (in thousands)	719		714		709

(1) Small and large general service customers are classified primarily based on the nature of their business and natural gas usage. Small general service customers are non-residential customers that use natural gas principally for heating. Large general service customers are non‑residential customers that use natural gas principally for their manufacturing processes.

(2) Wholesale sales are generally made to other utilities, municipalities and energy marketing companies for eventual resale to end-use customers.

There are seasonal variations in MidAmerican Energy's regulated natural gas business that are principally due to the use of natural gas for heating. Typically, 50-60% of MidAmerican Energy's regulated natural gas revenue is reported in the months of January, February, March and December.

On January 6, 2014, MidAmerican Energy recorded its all-time highest peak-day delivery through its distribution system of 1,281,762 Dth, which is 126,289 Dth above the previous record set on January 15, 2009. The new peak-day delivery consisted of 69% traditional retail sales service and 31% transportation service. The supply sources used by MidAmerican Energy to meet the deliveries to its traditional retail sales service customers on January 6, 2014, were as follows:

	Thousands	Percent
	of	of
	Dth	Total
Interstate pipeline supply	512	58	%
Leased pipeline storage	272	31
MidAmerican Energy LNG facilities	103	11
	887	100	%

Fuel Supply and Capacity

MidAmerican Energy is allowed to recover all of its costs to procure natural gas supply for its regulated retail natural gas customers through purchased gas adjustment clauses ("PGA") billed to those customers. Accordingly, as long as MidAmerican Energy is prudent in its procurement practices, MidAmerican Energy's regulated retail natural gas customers retain the risk associated with fluctuations in the market price of natural gas. MidAmerican Energy uses several strategies designed to maintain a reliable natural gas supply and reduce the impact of volatility in natural gas prices on its regulated retail natural gas customers. These strategies include the purchase of a geographically diverse supply portfolio from producers and third party energy marketing companies, the use of leased storage and LNG peaking facilities, the use of financial derivatives to fix the price on a portion of the anticipated natural gas requirements of MidAmerican Energy's customers and the maintenance of regulatory arrangements to share savings and costs with customers.

MidAmerican Energy contracts for firm natural gas pipeline capacity to transport natural gas from key production areas and liquid market centers to its service territory through direct interconnects to the pipeline systems of several interstate natural gas pipeline systems, including Northern Natural Gas Company, an affiliate company. MidAmerican Energy has multiple pipeline interconnections into several larger markets within its distribution system. Multiple pipeline interconnections create competition among pipeline suppliers for transportation capacity to serve those markets, thus reducing costs. In addition, multiple pipeline interconnections increase delivery reliability and give MidAmerican Energy the ability to optimize delivery of the lowest cost supply from the various production areas and liquid market centers into these larger markets. Benefits to MidAmerican Energy's distribution system customers are shared among all jurisdictions through a consolidated PGA.

At times, the natural gas pipeline capacity available through MidAmerican Energy's firm capacity portfolio may exceed the requirements of retail customers on MidAmerican Energy's distribution system. Firm capacity in excess of MidAmerican Energy's system needs can be resold to other companies to achieve optimum use of the available capacity. Past IUB and South Dakota Public Utilities Commission ("SDPUC") rulings have allowed MidAmerican Energy to retain 30% of the respective jurisdictional revenue on the resold capacity, with the remaining 70% being returned to customers through the PGAs.

MidAmerican Energy utilizes natural gas storage leased from the interstate pipelines to meet retail customer requirements, manage fluctuations in demand due to changes in weather and other usage factors and manage variation in seasonal natural gas pricing. MidAmerican Energy typically withdraws natural gas from storage during the heating season when customer demand is historically at its peak and injects natural gas into storage during off-peak months when customer demand is historically lower than during the heating season. MidAmerican Energy also utilizes its three LNG facilities to meet peak day demands during the winter heating season. The leased storage and LNG facilities reduce MidAmerican Energy's dependence on natural gas purchases during the volatile winter heating season and can deliver approximately 50% of MidAmerican Energy's anticipated retail sales requirements on a peak winter day.

MidAmerican Energy attempts to optimize the value of its regulated transportation capacity, natural gas supply and leased storage arrangements by engaging in wholesale transactions. IUB and SDPUC rulings have allowed MidAmerican Energy to retain 50% of the respective jurisdictional margins earned on wholesale sales of natural gas, with the remaining 50% being returned to customers through the PGAs.

13

In 1995, the IUB gave initial approval of MidAmerican Energy's Incentive Gas Supply Procurement Plan, which seeks to establish a market-based reference price for key components of MidAmerican Energy's natural gas supply costs. In September 2013, the IUB extended the program through October 31, 2016. Under the program, as amended, MidAmerican Energy is required to file with the IUB annually a comparison of its actual natural gas procurement costs to the reference price. If MidAmerican Energy's actual natural gas supply costs for the applicable period were less or greater than an established tolerance band around the reference price, then MidAmerican Energy shares a portion of the savings or costs with customers. A similar program has also been in effect in South Dakota since 1995 and in October 2013 was extended through October 31, 2016. Since the implementation of these programs, MidAmerican Energy has successfully achieved savings relative to the applicable reference prices and shared such savings with its regulated retail natural gas customers. MidAmerican Energy's portion of shared savings is reflected in results of nonregulated energy operations.

MidAmerican Energy is not aware of any factors that would cause material difficulties in meeting its anticipated retail customer demand for the foreseeable future.

Demand-side Management

MidAmerican Energy has provided a comprehensive set of DSM programs to its Iowa electric and gas customers since 1990 and to customers in its other jurisdictions in more recent years. The programs are designed to reduce energy consumption and more effectively manage when energy is used, including management of seasonal peak loads. Current programs offer services to customers such as energy engineering audits and information on how to improve the efficiency of their homes and businesses. To assist customers in investing in energy efficiency, MidAmerican Energy offers rebates or incentives encouraging the purchase and installation of high-efficiency equipment such as lighting, heating and cooling equipment, weatherization, motors, process equipment and systems, as well as incentives for efficient construction. Incentives are also paid to residential customers who participate in the air conditioner load control program and nonresidential customers who participate in the nonresidential load management program. Although subject to prudence reviews, state regulations allow for contemporaneous recovery of costs incurred for the DSM programs through state-specific energy efficiency service charges paid by all retail electric and gas customers. During 2013, $81 million was expended on MidAmerican Energy's DSM programs resulting in an estimated 250,000 MWh of electric and 468,000 Dth of gas first-year energy savings and an estimated 338 MW of electric and 7,084 Dth per day of gas peak load management.

Nonregulated Energy Operations

MidAmerican Energy has nonregulated energy operations that consist of competitive electricity and natural gas retail sales and gas income-sharing arrangements. Nonregulated electric activities predominantly include sales to retail customers in Illinois, Texas, Maryland and other states that allow customers to choose their energy supplier. Nonregulated gas activities predominantly include sales to retail customers in Iowa and Illinois. For its nonregulated retail energy activities, MidAmerican Energy purchases electricity and natural gas from producers and third party energy marketing companies and sells it directly to commercial, industrial and governmental end-users. MidAmerican Energy does not own nonregulated electricity or natural gas production assets but hedges its contracted sales obligations either with physical supply arrangements or financial products. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy had contracts in place for the sale of electricity and natural gas totaling 15,584,000 MWh and 24,450,000 Dth, respectively, with weighted average lives of 1.9 years and 1.5 years, respectively. In addition, MidAmerican Energy manages natural gas supplies for a number of smaller commercial end-users, which includes the sale of natural gas to these customers to meet their supply requirements.

The percentages of electricity sold to nonregulated retail customers by state for the years ended December 31 were as follows:

	2013		2012		2011
Illinois	71	%	73	%	75	%
Texas	16		13		11
Maryland	6		9		9
Other	7		5		5
	100	%	100	%	100	%

14

The percentages of natural gas sold to nonregulated customers by state for the years ended December 31 were as follows:

	2013		2012		2011
Iowa	89	%	89	%	88	%
Illinois	7		7		8
Other	4		4		4
	100	%	100	%	100	%

Nonregulated energy operations also include earnings from sharing arrangements under applicable state regulations and tariffs filed with the IUB and the SDPUC for MidAmerican Energy's regulated natural gas operations. Refer to the preceding "Regulated Natural Gas Operations" section of this Item 1 for further discussion of the sharing arrangements and the gas procurement program.

General Regulation

MidAmerican Energy is subject to comprehensive governmental regulation, which significantly influences its operating environment, prices charged to customers, capital structure, costs and, ultimately, its ability to recover costs.

State Regulation

MidAmerican Energy is regulated by the IUB as to retail rates, services and in other respects as provided by the laws of Iowa. MidAmerican Energy is regulated by the ICC as to bundled retail rates, unbundled delivery services, services that have not been declared to be competitive, aspects of competitive gas sales, issuance of securities, affiliate transactions, acquisition and sale of securities and in other respects as provided by the laws of Illinois. MidAmerican Energy is also subject to regulation by the SDPUC as to electric and gas retail rates and service as provided by the laws of South Dakota.

Historically, state regulatory commissions have established retail electric and natural gas rates on a cost-of-service basis, which are designed to allow MidAmerican Energy an opportunity to recover what each state regulatory commission deems to be reasonable costs of providing services, including a fair opportunity to earn a reasonable return on its investments based on its cost of debt and equity. Retail electric rates are generally based on the cost of providing traditional bundled services, including generation, transmission and distribution. In addition to return on investment, MidAmerican Energy's cost of service generally reflects a representative level of prudent expenses, including cost of sales, operating expense, depreciation and amortization, and income and other tax expense, reduced by wholesale electricity and other revenue. The allowed operating expenses are typically based on actual historical costs adjusted for known and measurable or forecasted changes. State regulatory commissions may adjust rates for various reasons, including pursuant to a review of: (a) MidAmerican Energy's revenue and expenses during a defined test period and (b) MidAmerican Energy's level of investment. State regulatory commissions typically have the authority to review and change rates on their own initiative; however, they may also initiate reviews at the request of MidAmerican Energy, utility customers or organizations representing groups of customers. MidAmerican Energy and such parties, however, may agree with one another not to request a review of or changes to rates for a specified period of time.

Except for Illinois, MidAmerican Energy has an exclusive right to serve retail customers within its service territories, and in turn, has an obligation to provide service to those customers. In Illinois, state law has established a competitive environment so that all Illinois customers are free to choose their retail service supplier. For customers that choose an alternative retail energy supplier, MidAmerican Energy continues to have an ongoing obligation to deliver the supplier's energy to the retail customer. MidAmerican Energy bills the retail customer for such delivery services. MidAmerican Energy also has an obligation to serve customers at regulated cost-based rates and has a continuing obligation to serve customers who have not selected a competitive electricity provider. To date, there has been no significant loss of customers in Illinois.

Iowa law permits rate-regulated utilities to seek ratemaking principles with the IUB prior to the construction of certain types of new generating facilities. Pursuant to this law, MidAmerican Energy has applied for and obtained IUB ratemaking principles orders for a 484 MW (MidAmerican Energy's share) coal-fueled generating facility, a 495 MW combined cycle natural gas-fueled generating facility and 2,285 MW (nominal ratings) of wind-powered generating facilities in service at December 31, 2013, excluding the wind-powered facilities discussed below. These ratemaking principles authorize a fixed rate of return on equity for the respective generating facilities over the regulatory life of the facilities. As of December 31, 2013, these generating facilities totaled $3.5 billion, or 38%, of utility plant, net and were subject to these ratemaking principles at a weighted average return on equity of 12.0% with a weighted average remaining life of 22 years.

15

Additionally, in August 2013, the IUB approved a settlement agreement between MidAmerican Energy and the OCA for ratemaking principles related to the construction of up to 1,050 MW (nominal ratings) of wind-powered generating facilities, 44 MW (nominal ratings) of which were in-service at December 31, 2013, but are not reflected in the determination of base rates for the current Iowa electric rate request. The settlement agreement establishes a cost cap of $1.9 billion, including AFUDC, for the construction of 1,050 MW (nominal ratings) of wind-powered generating facilities and provides for a fixed rate of return on equity of 11.625% over the proposed 30-year useful lives of those facilities in any future Iowa rate proceeding. The cost cap ensures that, as long as total costs are below the cap, the investment will be deemed prudent in any future Iowa rate proceeding. Until such time as these generation assets are reflected in rates, and ceasing thereafter, MidAmerican Energy proposes reductions in the energy adjustment clause recoveries proposed in its current Iowa electric rate request of $3 million in 2015, $7 million in 2016 and $10 million for each calendar year thereafter, conditioned upon MidAmerican Energy having completed at least 350 MW (nominal ratings) of wind-powered generating facilities pursuant to this settlement agreement. MidAmerican Energy anticipates having at least 350 MW (nominal ratings) of wind-powered generating facilities in service by the end of 2014.

In May 2013, MidAmerican Energy filed a request with the IUB for an increase in Iowa retail electric rates. MidAmerican Energy began collecting, subject to refund, interim rates in the third quarter of 2013 as approved by the IUB. In November 2013, MidAmerican Energy filed with the IUB a non-unanimous settlement agreement between MidAmerican Energy, the OCA and environmental parties in the proceeding. The settlement agreement, which is subject to IUB approval, proposes an increase in base rates that would be phased in over approximately three years and would result in equal annualized increases in revenues of $45 million, or 3.6% over 2012, effective with the start of interim rates and again on January 1, 2015 and 2016, for a total annualized increase of $135 million when fully implemented. Under the settlement agreement, the parties agree not to seek or support an increase or decrease in the final base rates to become effective prior to January 1, 2018, unless MidAmerican Energy projects its return on equity for 2015, 2016 or 2017 to be below 10%. In addition to an increase in base rates, the settlement agreement provides for the creation of two new adjustment clauses to be effective with the implementation of final approved rates. One clause would be for the recovery of changes in certain energy production related costs such as fuel, fuel transportation and the impacts of the production tax credit. The second clause would be for recovery of certain electric transmission charges. The adjustment clauses allow for fluctuations in these costs to be contemporaneously recovered from customers. The settlement agreement also proposes a revenue sharing mechanism that shares with customers 80% of revenues related to equity returns above 11%. In February 2014, the IUB held a decision meeting and voted to approve the settlement without material modification. The public decision announcement is not final, and the IUB has the discretion to alter its decision on the issues. The IUB’s decision will only become final when the written order is issued. A written order is expected from the IUB by the end of the first quarter of 2014.

In December 2013, MidAmerican Energy filed a request with the Illinois Commerce Commission ("ICC") for a $22 million, or 17%, annual increase in Illinois retail electric base rates. In addition to the increase in base rates, the filing contains a request for the creation of a new adjustment clause for recovery of certain electric transmission charges to be effective with the implementation of final approved rates. A final ICC decision in the case is expected in late 2014.

Under Iowa law, there are two options for temporary collection of higher rates following the filing of a request for a rate increase. Collection can begin, subject to refund, either (1) within 10 days of filing, without IUB review, or (2) 90 days after filing, with approval by the IUB, depending upon the ratemaking principles and precedents utilized. In either case, if the IUB has not issued a final order within ten months after the filing date, the temporary rates become final and any difference between the requested rate increase and the temporary rates may then be collected subject to refund until receipt of a final order. Exceptions to the ten-month limitation provide for extensions due to a utility's lack of due diligence in the rate proceeding, judicial appeals and situations involving new generating units being placed in service.

Under Illinois law, new rates may become effective 45 days after the filing of a request with the ICC, or earlier with ICC approval. The ICC has authority to suspend the proposed new rates, subject to hearing, for a period not to exceed approximately eleven months after filing.

South Dakota law authorizes the SDPUC to suspend new rates for up to six months during the pendency of rate proceedings; however, the proposed new rates are permitted to be implemented six months after the filing of a request for a rate increase subject to refund pending a final order in the proceeding.

MidAmerican Energy is currently exposed to fluctuations in electric energy costs relating to retail sales in Iowa as it does not have an energy cost adjustment mechanism through which fluctuations in electric energy costs can be recovered in that jurisdiction. Under its current Illinois and South Dakota electric tariffs, MidAmerican Energy is allowed to recover fluctuations in electric energy costs for its retail electric generation through fuel cost adjustment mechanisms.

16

MidAmerican Energy's cost of gas is collected for each jurisdiction in its gas rates through a uniform PGA, which is updated monthly to reflect changes in actual costs. Subject to prudence reviews, the PGA accomplishes a pass-through of MidAmerican Energy's cost of gas to its customers and, accordingly, has no direct effect on net income. MidAmerican Energy's DSM program costs are collected through separately established rates that are adjusted annually based on actual and expected costs, as approved by the respective state regulatory commission. As such, recovery of DSM program costs has no direct impact on net income.

Federal Regulation

The FERC is an independent agency with broad authority to implement provisions of the Federal Power Act, the Natural Gas Act, the Energy Policy Act of 2005 ("Energy Policy Act") and other federal statutes. The FERC regulates rates for wholesale sales of electricity; transmission of electricity, including pricing and regional planning for the expansion of transmission systems; electric system reliability; utility holding companies; accounting and records retention; securities issuances; and other matters. The FERC also has the enforcement authority to assess civil penalties of up to $1 million per day per violation of rules, regulations and orders issued under the Federal Power Act. MidAmerican Energy has implemented programs and procedures that facilitate and monitor compliance with the FERC's regulations described below. MidAmerican Energy is also subject to regulation by the NRC pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended ("Atomic Energy Act"), with respect to its ownership interest in Quad Cities Station.

Wholesale Electricity and Capacity

The FERC regulates MidAmerican Energy's rates charged to wholesale customers for electricity and transmission capacity and related services. Most of MidAmerican Energy's wholesale electricity sales and purchases occur under market-based pricing allowed by the FERC and are therefore subject to market volatility. MidAmerican Energy's authority to sell electricity in wholesale electricity markets at market-based rates is subject to triennial reviews conducted by the FERC. During such reviews, MidAmerican Energy must demonstrate a lack of market power over sales of wholesale electricity and electric generation capacity in its market area. MidAmerican Energy's most recent triennial filings were submitted in June 2011 for the FERC-defined Northeast Region and November 2011 for the FERC-defined Central Region. In February and July 2012, the FERC issued orders finding that MidAmerican Energy's June and November 2011 submittals, respectively, satisfied the FERC's requirements for market-based rate authority. Under the FERC's market-based rules, MidAmerican Energy must also file with the FERC a notice of change in status when there is a significant change in the conditions that the FERC relied upon in granting market-based rate authority.

Transmission

MidAmerican Energy participates in the MISO as a transmission-owning member. Accordingly, the MISO is the transmission provider under its FERC-approved OATT. While the MISO is responsible for directing the operation of MidAmerican Energy's transmission system, MidAmerican Energy retains ownership of its transmission assets and, therefore, is subject to the FERC's reliability standards discussed below. MidAmerican Energy's transmission business is managed and operated independently from its wholesale marketing business in accordance with the FERC Standards of Conduct.

The MISO OATT allows for broad cost allocation for MidAmerican Energy's Multi-Value Projects ("MVPs"), including similar MVPs of other MISO participants. Accordingly, a significant portion of the revenue requirement associated with MidAmerican Energy's MVP investments will be shared with other MISO participants based on the MISO's cost allocation methodology, and a portion of the revenue requirement of the other participants' MVPs will be allocated to MidAmerican Energy. Additionally, MidAmerican Energy has approval from the FERC to include 100% of construction work in progress in the determination of rates for its MVPs and to use a forward-looking rate structure for all of its transmission investments and costs.

The FERC has established an extensive number of mandatory reliability standards developed by the North American Electric Reliability Corporation ("NERC"), including planning and operation and critical infrastructure protection standards. Compliance, enforcement and monitoring oversight of these standards is carried out by the FERC, the NERC and the Midwest Reliability Organization for MidAmerican Energy.

Nuclear Regulatory Commission

General

MidAmerican Energy is subject to the jurisdiction of the NRC with respect to its license and 25% ownership interest in Quad Cities Station. Exelon Generation, the operator and 75% owner of Quad Cities Station, is under contract with MidAmerican Energy to secure and keep in effect all necessary NRC licenses and authorizations.

17

The NRC regulates the granting of permits and licenses for the construction and operation of nuclear generating stations and regularly inspects such stations for compliance with applicable laws, regulations and license terms. Current licenses for Quad Cities Station provide for operation until December 14, 2032. The NRC review and regulatory process covers, among other things, operations, maintenance, and environmental and radiological aspects of such stations. The NRC may modify, suspend or revoke licenses and impose civil penalties for failure to comply with the Atomic Energy Act, the regulations under such Act or the terms of such licenses. Following the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan that severely damaged the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear generating facility, the NRC launched a review of the incident to determine any issues that may be applicable to the nuclear industry in the United States. In March 2012, the NRC issued three orders to modify commercial nuclear power reactor licenses in response to lessons learned from the Fukushima incident. These orders include requirements for improved containment venting, spent fuel pool instrumentation, and mitigation strategies for beyond-design-basis external events to be implemented by December 31, 2016. Plans and strategies to implement the orders are being reviewed by the NRC and the nuclear industry. The impact of these orders and potential additional requirements could result in higher operations and maintenance expense, higher capital costs, extended outages or a combination thereof at Quad Cities Station.

Federal regulations provide that any nuclear operating facility may be required to cease operation if the NRC determines there are deficiencies in state, local or utility emergency preparedness plans relating to such facility, and the deficiencies are not corrected. Exelon Generation has advised MidAmerican Energy that an emergency preparedness plan for Quad Cities Station has been approved by the NRC. Exelon Generation has also advised MidAmerican Energy that state and local plans relating to Quad Cities Station have been approved by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

The NRC also regulates the decommissioning of nuclear power plants including the planning and funding for the eventual decommissioning of the plants. In accordance with these regulations, MidAmerican Energy submits a biennial report to the NRC providing reasonable assurance that funds will be available to pay its share of the costs of decommissioning Quad Cities Station.

Under the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982 ("NWPA"), the U.S. Department of Energy ("DOE") is responsible for the selection and development of repositories for, and the permanent disposal of, spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive wastes. Exelon Generation, as required by the NWPA, signed a contract with the DOE under which the DOE was to receive spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste for disposal beginning not later than January 1998. The DOE did not begin receiving spent nuclear fuel on the scheduled date and remains unable to receive such fuel and waste. The costs to be incurred by the DOE for disposal activities are being financed by fees charged to owners and generators of the waste. In November 2013, a three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled that the DOE should not be allowed to charge an annual fee for disposal costs until it determines how the fuel and wastes will be deposited permanently. On January 3, 2014, the DOE petitioned the court for rehearing before the full court. In 2004, Exelon Generation reached a settlement with the DOE concerning the DOE's failure to begin accepting spent nuclear fuel in 1998. As a result, Quad Cities Station has been billing the DOE, and the DOE is obligated to reimburse the station for all station costs incurred due to the DOE's delay. Exelon Generation has completed construction of an interim spent fuel storage installation ("ISFSI") at Quad Cities Station to store spent nuclear fuel in dry casks in order to free space in the storage pool. The first pad at the ISFSI is expected to facilitate storage of casks to support operations at Quad Cities Station until at least 2020. The first storage in a dry cask commenced in November 2005. By 2020, Exelon Generation plans to add a second pad to the ISFSI to accommodate storage of spent nuclear fuel through the end of operations at Quad Cities Station.

MidAmerican Energy has established a trust for the investment of funds collected for nuclear decommissioning of Quad Cities Station. The decommissioning costs are included in base rates in MidAmerican Energy's Iowa tariffs.

Nuclear Insurance

MidAmerican Energy maintains financial protection against catastrophic loss associated with its interest in Quad Cities Station through a combination of insurance purchased by Exelon Generation, insurance purchased directly by MidAmerican Energy, and the mandatory industry-wide loss funding mechanism afforded under the Price-Anderson Amendments Act of 1988 ("Price Anderson"), which was amended and extended by the Energy Policy Act. The general types of coverage are: nuclear liability, property damage or loss and nuclear worker liability.

Exelon Generation purchases private market nuclear liability insurance for Quad Cities Station in the maximum available amount of $375 million, which includes coverage for MidAmerican Energy's ownership. In accordance with Price-Anderson, excess liability protection above that amount is provided by a mandatory industry-wide Secondary Financial Protection program under which the licensees of nuclear generating facilities could be assessed for liability incurred due to a serious nuclear incident at any commercial nuclear reactor in the United States. Currently, MidAmerican Energy's aggregate maximum potential share of an assessment for Quad Cities Station is approximately $64 million per incident, payable in installments not to exceed $9 million annually.

18

The property insurance covers property damage, stabilization and decontamination of the facility, disposal of the decontaminated material and premature decommissioning arising out of a covered loss. For Quad Cities Station, Exelon Generation purchases primary and excess property insurance protection for the combined interests in Quad Cities Station, with coverage limits totaling $2.1 billion. MidAmerican Energy also directly purchases extra expense coverage for its share of replacement power and other extra expenses in the event of a covered accidental outage at Quad Cities Station. The property and related coverages purchased directly by MidAmerican Energy and by Exelon Generation, which includes the interests of MidAmerican Energy, are underwritten by an industry mutual insurance company and contain provisions for retrospective premium assessments to be called upon based on the industry mutual board of directors' discretion for adverse loss experience. Currently, the maximum retrospective amounts that could be assessed against MidAmerican Energy from industry mutual policies for its obligations associated with Quad Cities Station total $7 million.

The master nuclear worker liability coverage, which is purchased by Exelon Generation for Quad Cities Station, is an industry-wide guaranteed-cost policy with an aggregate limit of $375 million for the nuclear industry as a whole, which is in effect to cover tort claims of workers in nuclear-related industries.

Environmental Laws and Regulations

MidAmerican Energy is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding air and water quality, emissions performance standards, climate change, coal combustion byproduct disposal, hazardous and solid waste disposal, protected species and other environmental matters that have the potential to impact its current and future operations. In addition to imposing continuing compliance obligations, these laws and regulations provide regulators with the authority to levy substantial penalties for noncompliance including fines, injunctive relief and other sanctions. These laws and regulations are administered by the EPA and various other state and local agencies. All such laws and regulations are subject to a range of interpretation, which may ultimately be resolved by the courts. Environmental laws and regulations continue to evolve, and MidAmerican Energy is unable to predict the impact of the changing laws and regulations on its operations and financial results. MidAmerican Energy believes it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.

Refer to "Environmental Laws and Regulations" in Item 7 of this Form 10-K for additional information regarding environmental laws and regulations and "Liquidity and Capital Resources" in Item 7 for MidAmerican Energy's forecasted environmental-related capital expenditures.

MIDWEST CAPITAL

Item 1A. Risk Factors

MidAmerican Energy and MidAmerican Funding are subject to certain risks and uncertainties in their business operations, including, but not limited to, those described below. Careful consideration of these risks, together with all of the other information included in this Form 10‑K and the other public information filed by MidAmerican Energy and MidAmerican Funding, should be made before making an investment decision. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known or that MidAmerican Energy and MidAmerican Funding currently deem immaterial may also impair their business operations.

MidAmerican Energy is subject to operating uncertainties and events beyond its control that impact the costs to operate, maintain, repair and replace utility systems, which could adversely affect its financial results.

The operation of complex utility systems that are spread over large geographic areas involves many operating uncertainties and events beyond MidAmerican Energy's control. These potential events include the breakdown or failure of thermal, nuclear and other electricity generating facilities and related equipment, transmission and distribution lines or other equipment or processes, which could lead to catastrophic events; unscheduled outages; strikes, lockouts or other labor-related actions; shortages of qualified labor; transmission and distribution system constraints; terrorist activities or military or other actions, including cyberattacks; fuel shortages or interruptions; unavailability of critical equipment, materials and supplies; low water flows and other weather-related impacts; performance below expected levels of output, capacity or efficiency; operator error; third party excavation errors; design, construction or manufacturing defects; and catastrophic events such as severe storms, floods, fires, earthquakes, explosions, wars, terrorism, and embargoes. A catastrophic event might result in injury or loss of life, extensive property damage or environmental or natural resource damages. Any of these events or other operational events could significantly reduce or eliminate MidAmerican Energy's revenue or significantly increase its expenses. For example, if MidAmerican Energy cannot operate its electricity or natural gas facilities at full capacity due to damage caused by a catastrophic event, its revenue could decrease and its expenses could increase due to the need to obtain energy from more expensive sources. Further, MidAmerican Energy self-insures many risks, and current and future insurance coverage may not be sufficient to replace lost revenue or cover repair and replacement costs. The scope, cost and availability of MidAmerican Energy's insurance coverage may change, including the portion that is self-insured. Any reduction of MidAmerican Energy's revenue or increase in its expenses resulting from the risks described above, could adversely affect its financial results.

MidAmerican Energy is subject to extensive federal, state and local legislation and regulation, including numerous environmental, health, safety, reliability and other laws and regulations that affect its operations and costs. These laws and regulations are complex, dynamic and subject to new interpretations or change. In addition, new laws and regulations are continually being proposed and enacted that impose new or revised requirements or standards on MidAmerican Energy.

MidAmerican Energy isrequired to comply with numerous federal, state and local laws and regulations that have broad application to MidAmerican Energy and limit its ability to independently make and implement management decisions regarding, among other items, constructing, acquiring or disposing of operating assets; acquiring businesses; operating and maintaining generating facilities and transmission and distribution system assets; setting rates charged to customers; establishing capital structures and issuing debt or equity securities; transacting with affiliates; and paying dividends or similar distributions. These laws and regulations are followed in developing MidAmerican Energy's safety and compliance programs and procedures and are implemented and enforced by federal, state and local regulatory agencies, such as, among others, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the FERC, the EPA, the NRC and the IUB.

Compliance with applicable laws and regulations generally requires MidAmerican Energy to obtain and comply with a wide variety of licenses, permits, inspections, audits and other approvals. Further, compliance with laws and regulations can require significant capital and operating expenditures, including expenditures for new equipment, inspection, cleanup costs, removal and remediation costs, damages arising out of contaminated properties and refunds, fines, penalties and injunctive measures affecting operating assets for failure to comply with environmental regulations. Compliance activities pursuant to existing or new laws and regulations could be prohibitively expensive or otherwise uneconomical. As a result, MidAmerican Energy could be required to shut down some facilities or materially alter their operations. Further, MidAmerican Energy may not be able to obtain or maintain all required environmental or other regulatory approvals and permits for its operating assets or development projects. Delays in, or active opposition by third parties to, obtaining any required environmental or regulatory authorizations or failure to comply with the terms and conditions of the authorizations may increase costs or prevent or delay MidAmerican Energy from operating its facilities, developing or favorably locating new facilities or expanding existing facilities. If MidAmerican Energy fails to comply with any environmental or other regulatory requirements, it may be subject to penalties and fines or other sanctions, including changes to the way its electricity generating facilities are operated that may adversely impact generation. The costs of complying with laws and regulations could adversely affect its financial results. Not being able to operate existing facilities or develop new generating facilities to meet customer electricity needs could require MidAmerican Energy to increase its purchases of electricity on the wholesale market, which could increase market and price risks and adversely affect its financial results.

20

Existing laws and regulations, while comprehensive, are subject to changes and revisions from ongoing policy initiatives by legislators and regulators and to interpretations that may ultimately be resolved by the courts. For example, changes in laws and regulations could result in, but are not limited to, increased competition within MidAmerican Energy's service territories; new environmental requirements, including the implementation of renewable portfolio standards and GHG emissions reduction goals; the issuance of new or stricter air quality standards; the implementation of energy efficiency mandates; the issuance of regulations governing the management and disposal of coal combustion byproducts; changes in forecasting requirements; changes to MidAmerican Energy's service territories as a result of condemnation or takeover by municipalities or other governmental entities, particularly where it lacks the exclusive right to serve its customers; or the inability of MidAmerican Energy to recover its costs. In addition to changes in existing legislation and regulation, new laws and regulations are likely to be enacted from time to time that impose additional or new requirements or standards on MidAmerican Energy's businesses.

Implementing actions required under, and otherwise complying with, new federal and state laws and regulations and changes in existing ones are among the most challenging aspects of managing utility operations. MidAmerican Energy cannot accurately predict the type or scope of future laws and regulations that may be enacted, changes in existing ones or new interpretations by agency orders or court decisions nor can MidAmerican Energy determine their impact on it at this time; however, any one of these could adversely affect MidAmerican Energy's financial results through higher capital expenditures and operating costs or restrict or otherwise cause an adverse change in how MidAmerican Energy operates its business. To the extent that MidAmerican Energy is not allowed by its regulators to recover or cannot otherwise recover the costs to comply with new laws and regulations or changes in existing ones, the costs of complying with such additional requirements could have a material adverse effect on MidAmerican Energy's financial results. Additionally, even if such costs are recoverable in rates, if they are substantial and result in rates increasing to levels that substantially reduce customer demand, this could have a material adverse effect on MidAmerican Energy's financial results.

Recovery of costs by MidAmerican Energy is subject to regulatory review and approval, and the inability to recover costs may adversely affect its financial results.

State Rate Proceedings

MidAmerican Energy establishes rates for its regulated retail service through state regulatory proceedings. These proceedings typically involve multiple parties, including government bodies and officials, consumer advocacy groups and various consumers of energy, who have differing concerns but generally have the common objective of limiting rate increases while also requiring MidAmerican Energy to ensure system reliability. Decisions are subject to judicial appeal, potentially leading to further uncertainty associated with the approval proceedings.

States set retail rates based in part upon the state regulatory commission's acceptance of an allocated share of total utility costs, including any impact of non-tariffed revenues. When states adopt different methods to calculate interjurisdictional cost allocations, some costs may not be incorporated into rates of any state. Ratemaking is also generally done on the basis of estimates of normalized costs, so if a given year's realized costs are higher than normalized costs, rates may not be sufficient to cover those costs. In some cases, actual costs are lower than the normalized or estimated costs recovered through rates and from time-to-time may result in a state regulator requiring refunds to customers. Each state regulatory commission generally sets rates based on a test year established in accordance with that commission's policies. The test year data adopted by each state regulatory commission may create a lag between the incurrence of a cost and its recovery in rates. Each state regulatory commission also decides the allowed levels of expense, investment and capital structure that it deems are just and reasonable in providing the service and may disallow recovery in rates for any costs that it believes do not meet such standard. Additionally, each state regulatory commission establishes the allowed rate of return MidAmerican Energy will be given an opportunity to earn on its sources of capital. While rate regulation is premised on providing a fair opportunity to earn a reasonable rate of return on invested capital, the state regulatory commissions do not guarantee that MidAmerican Energy will be able to realize a reasonable rate of return.

In Iowa, MidAmerican Energy is currentlynot permitted to pass through energy, including fuel transportation, cost increases in its retail rates without a general rate case. Any significant increase in fuel costs for electricity generation or purchased electricity costs could have a negative impact on MidAmerican Energy, despite efforts to minimize this impact through the use of hedging contracts or through future general rate cases. Any of these consequences could adversely affect MidAmerican Energy's financial results.

21

FERC Jurisdiction

The FERC authorizes cost-based rates associated with MidAmerican Energy's transmission facilities. Under the Federal Power Act, MidAmerican Energy may voluntarily file, or may be obligated to file, for changes, including general rate changes, to its system-wide transmission service rates. General rate changes implemented may be subject to refund. The FERC also has responsibility for approving both cost- and market-based rates under which MidAmerican Energy sells electricity at wholesale and has broad jurisdiction over energy markets. The FERC may impose price limitations, bidding rules and other mechanisms to address some of the volatility of these markets or could revoke or restrict the ability of MidAmerican Energy to sell electricity at market-based rates, which could adversely affect its financial results. The FERC also maintains rules concerning standards of conduct, affiliate restrictions, interlocking directorates and cross-subsidization. As a transmission owning member of the MISO, MidAmerican Energy is also subject to MISO-directed modifications of market rules, which are subject to FERC approval and operational procedures. The FERC may also impose substantial civil penalties for any non-compliance with the Federal Power Act and the FERC's rules and orders.

The North American Electric Reliability Corporation ("NERC") has standards in place to ensure the reliability of the electric transmission grid and generation system. MidAmerican Energy is subject to the NERC's regulations and periodic audits to ensure compliance with those regulations. The NERC may carry out enforcement actions for non-compliance and administer significant financial penalties, subject to the FERC's review.

MidAmerican Energy is actively pursuing, developing and constructing new or expanded facilities, the completion and expected costs of which are subject to significant risk, and it has significant funding needs related to its planned capital expenditures.

MidAmerican Energyactively pursues, develops and constructs new or expanded facilities. It expects to incur substantial annual capital expenditures over the next several years. Such expenditures include and may include in the future, among others, construction and other costs for new electricity generating facilities, electric transmission or distribution projects, environmental control and compliance systems, and continued maintenance and upgrades of existing assets.

Development and construction of major facilities are subject to substantial risks, including fluctuations in the price and availability of commodities, manufactured goods, equipment, labor, siting and permitting and changes in environmental and operational compliance matters, load forecasts and other items over a multi-year construction period, as well as counterparty risk and the economic viability of MidAmerican Energy's suppliers, customers and contractors. Certain of MidAmerican Energy's construction projects are substantially dependent upon a single supplier or contractor and replacement of such supplier or contractor may be difficult and cannot be assured. These risks may result in the inability to timely complete a project or higher than expected costs to complete an asset and place it in service. Such costs may not be recoverable in the regulated rates or market or contract prices MidAmerican Energy is able to charge its customers. Delays in construction of renewable projects may result in delayed in-service dates, which may result in the loss of applicable income tax benefits. It is also possible that additional generation needs may be obtained through power purchase agreements, which could increase long-term purchase obligations and force reliance on the operating performance of a third party. The inability to successfully and timely complete a project, avoid unexpected costs or recover any such costs could adversely affect MidAmerican Energy's financial results.

Furthermore, MidAmerican Energy depends upon both internal and external sources of liquidity to provide working capital and to fund capital requirements. If it is unable to obtain funding from external sources, it may need to postpone or cancel planned capital expenditures. Failure to construct these planned projects could limit opportunities for growth, increase operating costs and adversely affect the reliability of electricity service to its customers.

22

A significant sustained decrease in demand for electricity or natural gas in the markets served by MidAmerican Energy would decrease its operating revenue and could adversely affect its financial results.

A significant sustained decrease in demand for electricity or natural gas in the markets served by MidAmerican Energy would significantly reduce its operating revenue and could adversely affect its financial results. Factors that could lead to a decrease in market demand include, among others:

• a depression, recession or other adverse economic condition that results in a lower level of economic activity or reduced spending by consumers on electricity or natural gas;

• an increase in the market price of electricity or natural gas or a decrease in the price of other competing forms of energy;

• efforts by customers, legislators and regulators to reduce the consumption of electricity generated or distributed by MidAmerican Energy through various conservation, energy efficiency and distributed generation measures and programs;

• higher fuel taxes or other governmental or regulatory actions that increase, directly or indirectly, the cost of natural gas or other fuel sources for electricity generation or that limit the use of natural gas or the generation of electricity from fossil fuels;

• a shift to more energy-efficient or alternative fuel machinery or an improvement in fuel economy, whether as a result of technological advances by manufacturers, legislation mandating higher fuel economy or lower emissions, price differentials, incentives or otherwise;

• a reduction in the state or federal subsidies or tax incentives that are provided to agricultural, industrial or other customers, or a significant sustained change in prices for commodities such as ethanol or corn for ethanol manufacturers; and

• sustained mild weather that reduces heating or cooling needs.

MidAmerican Energy's operating results may fluctuate on a seasonal and quarterly basis and may be adversely affected by weather.

In the markets in which MidAmerican Energy operates, demand for electricity peaks during the hot summer months when cooling needs are higher. Market prices for electricity also generally peak at that time. In addition, demand for natural gas and other fuels generally peaks during the winter when heating needs are higher. This is especially true in MidAmerican Energy's retail natural gas business. Further, extreme weather conditions, such as heat waves, winter storms or floods could cause these seasonal fluctuations to be more pronounced. Additionally, MidAmerican Energy has added substantial wind-powered generating capacity, which is also a climate-dependent resource.

As a result, the overall financial results of MidAmerican Energy may fluctuate substantially on a seasonal and quarterly basis. MidAmerican Energy has historically provided less service, and consequently earned less income, when weather conditions are mild. Unusually mild weather in the future may adversely affect its financial results through lower revenue or margins. Conversely, unusually extreme weather conditions could increase its costs to provide services and could adversely affect its financial results. The extent of fluctuation in MidAmerican Energy's financial results may change depending on a number of factors related to its regulatory environment and contractual agreements, including its ability to recover energy costs, the existence of revenue sharing provisions and terms of the wholesale sale contracts.

23

MidAmerican Energy is subject to market risk associated with the wholesale energy markets, which could adversely affect MidAmerican Energy's financial results.

In general, MidAmerican Energy's primary market risk is adverse fluctuations in the market price of wholesale electricity and fuel, including natural gas, coal and fuel oil, which is compounded by volumetric changes affecting the availability of or demand for electricity and fuel. The market price of wholesale electricity may be influenced by several factors, such as the adequacy or type of generating capacity, scheduled and unscheduled outages of generating facilities, prices and availability of fuel sources for generation, disruptions or constraints to transmission and distribution facilities, weather conditions, demand for electricity, economic growth and changes in technology. Volumetric changes are caused by fluctuations in generation or changes in customer needs that can be due to the weather, electricity and fuel prices, the economy, regulations or customer behavior. For example, MidAmerican Energy purchases electricity and fuel in the open market as part of its normal operating business. If market prices rise, especially in a time when larger than expected volumes must be purchased at market prices, MidAmerican Energy may incur significantly greater expense than anticipated. Likewise, if electricity market prices decline in a period when MidAmerican Energy is a net seller of electricity in the wholesale market, it could earn less revenue. Although MidAmerican Energy has energy cost adjustment mechanisms in Illinois and South Dakota, the risks associated with changes in market prices may not be fully mitigated.

A downgrade in MidAmerican Energy's credit ratings could negatively affect its access to capital, increase the cost of borrowing or raise energy transaction credit support requirements.

MidAmerican Energy's long-term debt is rated by various rating agencies. MidAmerican Energy cannot assure that its long-term debt ratings will not be reduced in the future. Although none of its outstanding debt has rating-downgrade triggers that would accelerate a repayment obligation, a credit rating downgrade would increase the borrowing costs and commitment fees on its revolving credit agreements and other financing arrangements, perhaps significantly. In addition, it would likely be required to pay a higher interest rate in future financings, and the potential pool of investors and funding sources would likely decrease. Further, access to the commercial paper market, its principal source of short-term borrowings, could be significantly limited resulting in higher interest costs.

Most of MidAmerican Energy's large wholesale customers, suppliers and counterparties require MidAmerican Energy to have sufficient creditworthiness in order to enter into transactions, particularly in the wholesale energy markets. If its credit ratings were to decline, especially below investment grade, financing costs and borrowings would likely increase because certain counterparties may require collateral in the form of cash, a letter of credit or some other form of security for existing transactions and as a condition to entering into future transactions with MidAmerican Energy. Such amounts may be material and may adversely affect MidAmerican Energy's liquidity and cash flows.

Potential terrorist activities and the impact of military or other actions, including cyberattacks, could adversely affect MidAmerican Energy's financial results.

The ongoing threat of terrorism and the impact of military or other actions by nations or politically, ethnically or religiously motivated organizations regionally or globally may create increased political, economic, social and financial market instability, which could subject MidAmerican Energy's operations to increased risks. Additionally, the United States government has issued warnings that energy assets, specifically pipeline, nuclear generation and other electric utility infrastructure, are potential targets for terrorist attacks, including cyberattacks. Cyberattacks could adversely affect MidAmerican Energy's ability to operate its facilities, information technology and business systems, or compromise confidential customer and employee information. Political, economic, social or financial market instability or damage to or interference with the operating assets of MidAmerican Energy, customers or suppliers may result in business interruptions, lost revenue, higher commodity prices, disruption in fuel supplies, lower energy consumption and unstable markets, particularly with respect to electricity and natural gas, and increased security, repair or other costs, any of which may materially adversely affect MidAmerican Energy in ways that cannot be predicted at this time. Any of these risks could materially affect MidAmerican Energy's financial results. Furthermore, instability in the financial markets as a result of terrorism, sustained or significant cyberattacks, or war could also materially adversely affect MidAmerican Energy's ability to raise capital.

24

MidAmerican Energy is subject to the unique risks associated with nuclear generation.

The ownership and operation of nuclear power plants, such as MidAmerican Energy's 25% ownership interest in Quad Cities Station, involves certain risks. These risks include, among other items, mechanical or structural problems, inadequacy or lapses in maintenance protocols, the impairment of reactor operation and safety systems due to human error, the costs of storage, handling and disposal of nuclear materials, limitations on the amounts and types of insurance coverage commercially available, and uncertainties with respect to the technological and financial aspects of decommissioning nuclear facilities at the end of their useful lives. The prolonged unavailability of Quad Cities Station could have a materially adverse effect on MidAmerican Energy's financial results, particularly when the cost to produce power at the plant is significantly less than market wholesale prices. The following are among the more significant of these risks:

• Operational Risk - Operations at any nuclear power plant could degrade to the point where the plant would have to be shut down. If such degradations were to occur, the process of identifying and correcting the causes of the operational downgrade to return the plant to operation could require significant time and expense, resulting in both lost revenue and increased fuel and purchased electricity costs to meet supply commitments. Rather than incurring substantial costs to restart the plant, the plant could be shut down. Furthermore, a shut-down or failure at any other nuclear plant could cause regulators to require a shut-down or reduced availability at Quad Cities Station.

In addition, issues relating to the disposal of nuclear waste material, including the availability, unavailability and expense of a permanent repository for spent nuclear fuel could adversely impact operations as well as the cost and ability to decommission nuclear plants, including Quad Cities Station, in the future.

• Regulatory Risk - The NRC may modify, suspend or revoke licenses and impose civil penalties for failure to comply with applicable Atomic Energy Act regulations or the terms of the licenses of nuclear facilities. Unless extended, the NRC operating licenses for Quad Cities Station will expire in 2032. Changes in regulations by the NRC could require a substantial increase in capital expenditures or result in increased operating or decommissioning costs.

• Nuclear Accident and Catastrophic Risks - Accidents and other unforeseen catastrophic events have occurred at nuclear facilities other than Quad Cities Station, both in the United States and elsewhere, such as at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in Japan as a result of the earthquake and tsunami in March 2011. The consequences of an accident or catastrophic event can be severe and include loss of life and property damage. Any resulting liability from a nuclear accident or catastrophic event could exceed MidAmerican Energy's resources, including insurance coverage.

MidAmerican Energy is subject to counterparty credit risk, which could adversely affect its financial results.

MidAmerican Energy issubject to counterparty credit risk related to contractual payment obligations with wholesale suppliers, customers and other participants in organized RTO markets. Adverse economic conditions or other events affecting counterparties with whom MidAmerican Energy conducts business could impair the ability of these counterparties to meet their payment obligations. MidAmerican Energy depends on these counterparties to remit payments on a timely basis. MidAmerican Energy continues to monitor the creditworthiness of its wholesale suppliers and customers in an attempt to reduce the impact of any potential counterparty default. If strategies used to minimize these risk exposures are ineffective or if any of MidAmerican Energy's wholesale suppliers' or customers' financial condition deteriorates or they otherwise become unable to pay, it could have a significant adverse impact on MidAmerican Energy's financial results.

Transactional activities of MidAmerican Energy and other participants in organized RTO markets are governed by credit policies specified in each respective RTO's governing tariff and related business practices. Credit policies of RTO's, which have been developed through extensive stakeholder participation, generally seek to minimize potential loss in the event of a market participant default without unnecessarily inhibiting access to the marketplace. In the event of a default by an RTO market participant on its market-related obligations, losses are typically allocated among all other market participants in proportion to each participant's share of overall market activity during the period of time the loss was incurred. Because of this, MidAmerican Energy has potential indirect exposure with respect to the creditworthiness of every other market participant in the RTO markets where it actively participates, including the MISO, the PJM, and the Electric Reliability Council of Texas.

25

MidAmerican Energy is subject to counterparty performance risk, which could adversely affect its financial results.

MidAmerican Energy is subject to counterparty performance risk related to performance of contractual obligations by wholesale suppliers, customers, contractors and other participants in organized RTO markets. MidAmerican Energy relies on wholesale suppliers to deliver commodities, primarily natural gas, coal and electricity, in accordance with short- and long-term contracts. Failure or delay by suppliers to provide these commodities pursuant to existing contracts could disrupt the delivery of electricity and require MidAmerican Energy to incur additional expenses to meet customer needs. In addition, when these contracts terminate, MidAmerican Energy may be unable to purchase the commodities on terms equivalent to the terms of current contracts.

MidAmerican Energy relies on wholesale customers to take delivery of the energy they have committed to purchase. Failure of customers to take delivery may require MidAmerican Energy to find other customers to take the energy at lower prices than the original customers committed to pay. If MidAmerican Energy's wholesale customers are unable to fulfill their obligations, there may be a significant adverse impact on MidAmerican Energy's financial results.

Inflation and changes in commodity prices and fuel transportation costs may adversely affect MidAmerican Energy's financial results.

Inflation and increases in commodity prices and fuel transportation costs may affect MidAmerican Energy's business by increasing both operating and capital costs. As a result of existing rate agreements, contractual arrangements or competitive price pressures, MidAmerican Energy may not be able to pass the costs of inflation on to its customers. If MidAmerican Energy is unable to manage cost increases or pass them on to its customers, its financial results could be adversely affected.

Poor performance of plan and fund investments and other factors impacting the pension and other postretirement benefit plans and nuclear decommissioning trust funds could unfavorably impact MidAmerican Energy's cash flows and liquidity.

Costs of providing MidAmerican Energy's defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans depend upon a number of factors, including the rates of return on plan assets, the level and nature of benefits provided, discount rates, the interest rates used to measure required minimum funding levels, changes in benefit design, tax deductibility and funding limits, changes in laws and government regulation and MidAmerican Energy's required or voluntary contributions made to the plans. MidAmerican Energy's pension plans are in underfunded positions. Even if sustained growth in the investments over future periods increases the value of these plans' assets, MidAmerican Energy will likely be required to make significant cash contributions to fund these plans in the future. Additionally, the plans have investments in domestic and foreign equity and debt securities and other investments that are subject to loss. Losses from investments could add to the volatility, size and timing of future contributions. Furthermore, the Pension Protection Act of 2006, as amended, may result in more volatility in the amount and timing of future pension contributions.

In addition, MidAmerican Energy is required to fund over time the projected costs of decommissioning Quad Cities Station, a nuclear power plant. Funds MidAmerican Energy has invested in a nuclear decommissioning trust are invested in debt and equity securities and poor performance of these investments will reduce the amount of funds available for their intended purpose, which could require MidAmerican Energy to make additional cash contributions. Such cash funding obligations, which are also impacted by the other factors described above, could have a material impact on MidAmerican Energy's liquidity by reducing its available cash.

Disruptions in the financial markets could affect MidAmerican Energy's ability to obtain debt financing, draw upon or renew existing credit facilities, and have other adverse effects on MidAmerican Energy.

Disruptions in the financial markets could affect MidAmerican Energy's ability to obtain debt financing, or to draw upon or renew existing credit facilities, and have other adverse effects on MidAmerican Energy. Significant dislocations and liquidity disruptions in the United States and global credit markets, such as those that occurred in 2008 and 2009, may materially impact liquidity in the bank and debt capital markets, making financing terms less attractive for borrowers that are able to find financing and, in other cases, may cause certain types of debt financing, or any financing, to be unavailable. Additionally, economic uncertainty in the United States or globally may adversely affect the United States' credit markets and could negatively impact MidAmerican Energy's ability to access funds on favorable terms or at all. If MidAmerican Energy is unable to access the bank and debt markets to meet liquidity and capital expenditure needs, it may adversely affect the timing and amount of MidAmerican Energy's capital expenditures and its financial results.

26

MidAmerican Energy may be involved in a variety of legal proceedings, the outcomes of which are uncertain and could adversely affect its financial results.

MidAmerican Energy is, and in the future may become, a party to a variety of legal proceedings. Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and MidAmerican Energy cannot predict the outcome of individual matters with certainty. It is possible that the final resolution of some of the matters in which MidAmerican Energy may be involved could result in additional material payments substantially in excess of established reserves or in terms that could require MidAmerican Energy to change business practices and procedures or divest ownership of assets. Further, litigation could result in the imposition of financial penalties or injunctions and adverse regulatory consequences, any of which could limit MidAmerican Energy's ability to take certain desired actions or the denial of needed permits, licenses or regulatory authority to conduct its business, including the siting or permitting of facilities. Any of these outcomes could have a material adverse effect MidAmerican Energy's financial results.

MEHC could exercise control over MidAmerican Funding and MidAmerican Energy in a manner that would benefit MEHC to the detriment of MidAmerican Funding's creditors or MidAmerican Energy's creditors.

MEHC is the sole member of MidAmerican Funding and, accordingly, indirectly owns all of MidAmerican Energy's common stock and has effective control over all decisions requiring shareholder approval. In circumstances involving a conflict of interest between MEHC and MidAmerican Funding's or MidAmerican Energy's creditors, MEHC could exercise its control in a manner that would benefit MEHC to the detriment of the creditors.

Potential changes in accounting standards may impact MidAmerican Energy's financial results and disclosures in the future, which may change the way analysts measure its business or financial performance.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") and the SEC continuously make changes to accounting standards and disclosure and other financial reporting requirements. New or revised accounting standards and requirements issued by the FASB or the SEC or new accounting orders issued by the FERC could significantly impact MidAmerican Energy's financial results and disclosures.

Item 2. Properties

MidAmerican Energy's regulated utility properties consist of the physical assets necessary to support its electricity and natural gas businesses and include mainly electric generation, transmission and distribution facilities, gas distribution facilities and related rights of way and easements. It is the opinion of management that the principal depreciable properties owned by MidAmerican Energy are in good operating condition and well maintained. MidAmerican Energy's most individually significant properties are its electric generation facilities. For information regarding these facilities, please refer to the "Regulated Electric Operations" discussion in Item 1 of this Form 10-K.

The right to construct and operate MidAmerican Energy's electric transmission and distribution facilities across certain property was obtained in most circumstances through negotiations and, where necessary, through the exercise of the power of eminent domain, which MidAmerican Energy continues to have in each of the jurisdictions in which it operates those facilities. With respect to real property, each of the electric transmission and distribution facilities fall into two basic categories: (1) parcels that are owned in fee, such as certain of the electric generation stations and electric substations; and (2) parcels where the interest derives from leases, easements, rights-of-way, permits or licenses from landowners or governmental authorities permitting the use of such land for the construction, operation and maintenance of the electric transmission and distribution facilities. MidAmerican Energy believes it has satisfactory title to all of the real property making up the facilities in all material respects.

The electric transmission system of MidAmerican Energy at December 31, 2013, included 1,000 miles of 345 kilovolt (“kV”) lines, 1,400 miles of 161 kV lines and 1,400 miles of 69 kV lines. MidAmerican Energy's electric distribution system included 370 substations at December 31, 2013. Gas property consists primarily of natural gas mains and services lines, meters and related distribution equipment, including feeder lines to communities served from natural gas pipelines owned by others. The gas distribution facilities of MidAmerican Energy included 22,500 miles of gas mains and service lines as of December 31, 2013. In addition, gas property includes three liquefied natural gas plants and one propane-air plant.

Results of Operations

Overview

MidAmerican Energy -

MidAmerican Energy's earnings on common stock for 2013 was $349 million, a decrease of $5 million, or 1%, compared to 2012 due to a $50 million decrease in regulated electric wholesale gross margin from higher costs for purchased power and generation, a $23 million decrease in nonregulated electric gross margin due to continued competitive pressures, a $13 million increase in fossil-fueled generating facility maintenance and a $11 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense primarily as a result of additional wind-powered generating facilities placed in service in the second half of 2012 net of the impact of depreciation rate changes in 2012 and 2013. The decreases in earnings on common stock were partially offset by a $59 million increase in regulated electric retail gross margins primarily due to adjustment clauses in Iowa and Illinois, interim Iowa electric retail rates implemented in August 2013 and a 2% increase in retail sales volumes, and a $31 million increase in regulated gas gross margins due to colder temperatures in 2013 primarily from the unusually warm temperatures in 2012.

MidAmerican Energy's earnings on common stock for 2012 was $354 million, an increase of $36 million, or 11%, compared to $318 million for 2011. The increase was primarily due to income tax benefits and lower interest expense, partially offset by lower operating income. The increase in income tax benefits was due to greater production tax credits for wind-powered generation, primarily as a result of additional facilities placed in service in 2011 and 2012 and the effects of ratemaking. Interest expense decreased due to MidAmerican Energy's redemption of $400 million of its 5.65% senior notes in December 2011 and $275 million of its 5.125% senior notes in June 2012. Operating income decreased $59 million to $370 million for 2012 compared to 2011. Higher regulated electric retail gross margins due to revenues from new adjustment clauses in Iowa and Illinois and abnormally hot temperatures in the second and third quarters of 2012 were more than offset by higher depreciation expense as a result of utility plant placed in service, increases in certain operations and maintenance expense and lower nonregulated electric and regulated gas gross margins due to mild weather and competitive pressures.

MidAmerican Funding -

Net income attributable to MidAmerican Funding for 2013 was $340 million, a decrease of $2 million, or 1%, compared to $342 million for 2012. Net income attributable to MidAmerican Funding for 2012 was $342 million, an increase of $38 million, or 13%, compared to $304 million for 2011. The variances in net income attributable to MidAmerican Funding were due principally to the factors discussed for MidAmerican Energy.

(1) GWh amounts are net of energy used by the related generating facilities.

(2) All or some of the renewable energy attributes associated with generation from these generating facilities may be: (a) used in future years to comply with renewable portfolio standards or other regulatory requirements or (b) sold to third parties in the form of renewable energy credits or other environmental commodities.

Electric gross margin for 2013 increased $9 million compared to 2012. Retail gross margin increased $59 million compared to 2012 due to $36 million from higher electric retail rates, a $34 million increase in retail sales volumes due to a higher use per customer and customer growth, and a $4 million increase from sales of renewable energy credits. The higher electric retail rates reflect adjustment clauses implemented in Iowa and Illinois in the first half of 2012 and interim Iowa electric retail rates providing for a $45 million annualized increase in revenues, which were implemented in August 2013. The increases in retail gross margin were partially offset by a $15 million decrease from higher generation costs for retail primarily from new coal transportation agreements effective in 2013. Wholesale gross margin decreased $50 million compared to 2012 primarily due to a lower average margin per megawatt hour sold as a result of higher prices for, and volumes of, purchased power and an increase in generation costs primarily from new coal transportation agreements.

32

Electric gross margin for 2012 increased $65 million compared to 2011. Retail gross margin increased $66 million due to $43 million from adjustment clauses implemented in Iowa and Illinois in 2012, $14 million for increased use of lower-cost generation for retail and $5 million from increased recoveries through bill riders predominantly for DSM program costs. Changes in recoveries through the bill riders are substantially matched by changes in other operating expenses and depreciation and amortization. Increases from customer growth and abnormally hot spring and summer temperatures were substantially offset by decreases from unseasonably warm winter temperatures and other usage factors. Wholesale gross margin decreased a total of $1 million due to a lower average margin per megawatt hour sold in 2012 partially offset by the increase in wholesale sales volumes.

Regulated Gas Gross Margin

A comparison of key results related to regulated gas gross margin is as follows for the years ended December 31:

Regulated gas revenue includes PGAs through which MidAmerican Energy is allowed to recover the cost of gas sold from its retail gas utility customers. Consequently, fluctuations in the cost of gas sold do not directly affect gross margin or net income because regulated gas revenue reflects comparable fluctuations through the PGAs. For 2013 compared to 2012, MidAmerican Energy's combined retail and wholesale average per-unit cost of gas sold increased 13%, resulting in an increase of $64 million in gas revenue and cost of gas sold. Additionally, the increase in total sales volumes compared to 2012 increased revenue and cost of gas sold for 2013. Gas gross margin increased $31 million for 2013 compared to 2012 primarily due to higher retail sales volumes as a result of colder temperatures in 2013 primarily from unusually warm temperatures in 2012.

For 2012 compared to 2011, MidAmerican Energy's combined retail and wholesale average per-unit cost of gas sold decreased 18%, resulting in a decrease of $91 million in gas revenue and cost of gas sold. The decrease in gas retail sales volumes, partially offset by the increase in gas wholesale sales volumes, also reduced gas revenue and cost of gas sold for 2012. Gas gross margin decreased $15 million for 2012 compared to 2011 due primarily to lower retail sales volumes as a result of unseasonably warm winter and spring temperatures and other usage factors.

33

Regulated Operating Costs and Expenses

Other operating expenses of $435 million for 2013 increased $8 million compared to 2012 due to an increase of $3 million in each of gas distribution costs, transmission costs from MISO and pension and postretirement costs, a $2 million increase in DSM program costs, which are matched by increases in related electric and gas revenue, and $2 million from the write-off of Iowa carbon reduction study costs, partially offset by a $6 million decrease in administrative costs. Other operating expenses of $427 million for 2012 increased $14 million compared to 2011 due to a $7 million increase in customer accounts expense primarily due to an adjustment in 2011 to the reserve for uncollectible accounts, a $4 million increase in generation operation expense due primarily to additional wind-powered generation placed in service in the second half of 2011 and a $3 million increase in DSM program costs.

Maintenance expense of $224 million for 2013 increased $4 million compared to 2012 due to higher fossil-fueled generating facility maintenance costs of $13 million primarily related to a Louisa Generating Station outage, partially offset by lower distribution and other power generation maintenance. Maintenance expense of $220 million for 2012 increased $23 million compared to 2011 due to a $15 million increase in costs for generating facility maintenance primarily related to the wind-powered generating facilities placed in service in the second half of 2011 and increases in general plant and transmission maintenance costs.

Depreciation and amortization expense of $403 million for 2013 increased $11 million compared to 2012 due to a $31 million increase in utility plant depreciation primarily from additional wind-powered generating facilities placed in service in the second half of 2012, partially offset by a $14 million decrease for the net effect of changes in depreciation rates in 2012 and 2013, as discussed below, a $3 million decrease in a regulatory expense related to nuclear decommissioning accruals and a $3 million decrease from the discontinued amortization of Iowa carbon study costs. Depreciation and amortization expense of $392 million for 2012 increased $56 million compared to 2011 as a result of a $58 million increase in utility plant depreciation primarily from additional wind-powered generating facilities placed in service in the second half of 2011 and the second half of 2012 and a $3 million increase from credits recorded in 2011 related to a revenue sharing arrangement in Iowa, partially offset by a $7 million decrease for the net effect of changes in depreciation rates in 2011 and 2012.

During the second quarter of 2011, MidAmerican Energy revised its electric and gas utility plant depreciation rates based on the results of a depreciation study. The new rates generally reflect longer estimated useful lives and lower net salvage. The effect of this change was to reduce depreciation and amortization expense by $16 million for 2011 and $28 million annually based on depreciable plant balances at the time of the change. During the third quarter of 2012, MidAmerican Energy revised its depreciation rates for certain generation facility assets reflecting shorter estimated useful lives resulting in a $5 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense for 2012 and $11 million annually based on depreciable plant balances at the time of the change. During the third quarter of 2013, MidAmerican Energy revised its depreciation rates for certain electric generating facilities based on the results of a new depreciation study. The new rates reflect longer estimated useful lives for wind-powered generating facilities placed in service in 2011 and 2012 and a lower accrual rate for the cost of removal regulatory liability related to coal-fueled generating facilities. The effect of this change was to reduce depreciation and amortization expense by $20 million for 2013 and $49 million annually based on depreciable plant balances at the time of the change.

Nonregulated Gross Margin

MidAmerican Energy -

34

MidAmerican Energy's nonregulated gross margin decreased $29 million for 2013 compared to 2012 and decreased $16 million for 2012 compared to 2011. The following table presents the margins related to various nonregulated activities (in millions):

	2013		2012		2011
Nonregulated electric	$	49	$	72	$	87
Nonregulated gas	2		3		3
Other	2		7		8
	$	53	$	82	$	98

For 2013 compared to 2012, lower volumes, prices and costs for electric sales, partially offset by higher volumes, prices and costs for gas sales resulted in decreases to nonregulated operating revenue and cost of sales. For 2012 compared to 2011, lower prices, costs and volumes for electric sales and lower prices and costs for gas sales, partially offset by an increase in gas sales volumes, resulted in decreases to nonregulated operating revenue and cost of sales. Nonregulated gross margins declined in 2013 and 2012 relative to the comparative year primarily due to competitive pressures that reduced the volumes and margin per unit in MidAmerican Energy’s nonregulated electric business.

Non-Operating Income

MidAmerican Energy -

Allowance for equity funds of $19 million for 2013 increased $5 million compared to 2012 as a result of higher construction work-in-progress balances primarily related to emissions control equipment at three of MidAmerican Energy's jointly owned generating units.

MidAmerican Energy's other, net of $15 million for 2013 increased $6 million compared to 2012 due to higher returns from corporate-owned life insurance policies.

Fixed Charges

MidAmerican Energy -

Interest on long-term debt of $150 million for 2013 increased $8 million compared to 2012. In September 2013, MidAmerican Energy issued $350 million of 2.40% First Mortgage Bonds, $250 million of 3.70% First Mortgage Bonds and $350 million of 4.80% First Mortgage Bonds resulting in an increase to interest on long-term debt. Additionally, a larger balance of deferred payments for construction of wind-powered generating facilities in 2012 and 2011 increased interest expense in 2013. Refer to Note 8 of Notes to Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10‑K for further discussion. These increases in interest on long-term debt were partially offset by a decrease from MidAmerican Energy's redemption of $275 million of 5.125% senior notes in June 2012.

Interest on long-term debt of $142 million for 2012 decreased $15 million compared to 2011 as a result of MidAmerican Energy's redemption of $400 million of 5.65% senior notes in December 2011 and $275 million of 5.125% senior notes in June 2012, partially offset by an increase related to a larger balance of deferred payments for construction of wind-powered generating facilities.

Allowance for borrowed funds of $7 million for 2013 increased $2 million compared to 2012 as a result of higher construction work-in-progress balances primarily related to emissions control equipment at three of MidAmerican Energy's jointly owned generating units.

Income Tax Benefit

MidAmerican Energy -

MidAmerican Energy's income tax benefit was $103 million for 2013, an increase of $4 million compared to $99 million for 2012, with an effective tax rate of (42)% for 2013 and (39)% for 2012. The change in the effective tax rate was due to an increase in production tax credits of $31 million in 2013, partially offset by lower income tax benefits of $10 million from the effects of ratemaking and a reduction in income tax benefits related to changes in the income tax accounting methods used to determine current deductibility of certain utility costs, as discussed below.

MidAmerican Energy's income tax benefit was $99 million for 2012, an increase of $82 million compared to $17 million for 2011, with an effective tax rate of (39)% for 2012 and (6)% for 2011. The change in the effective tax rate was due to an increase in production tax credits of $48 million in 2012, greater income tax benefits of $21 million from the effects of ratemaking, and lower pre-tax income, partially offset by a reduction in income tax benefits related to changes in the income tax accounting methods used to determine current deductibility of certain utility costs.

MidAmerican Energy's income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2012, reflects $16 million of federal income tax benefits recognized in connection with an income tax method change for income tax years prior to 2012 related to repair costs for its regulated utility electric transmission and distribution assets based on guidance published by the Internal Revenue Service. MidAmerican Energy's income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2011, reflects $35 million of federal income tax benefits in conjunction with the partial resolution of certain tax issues related to tax positions taken for income tax method changes in 2009 and 2010 associated with the determination of current income tax deductions for repair costs and administrative and general costs related to certain of MidAmerican Energy's regulated utility assets.

The income tax method changes result in current deductibility for applicable repair and administrative and general costs, which are capitalized for book purposes. MidAmerican Energy retroactively applied the method changes and deducted amounts related to prior years' costs on the tax return that includes the year of change. State utility rate regulation in Iowa requires that the tax effect of certain temporary differences be flowed through immediately to customers. Therefore, certain deferred amounts that would otherwise have been recognized in income tax expense have been included as changes in regulatory assets in recognition of MidAmerican Energy's ability to recover increased tax expense when such temporary differences reverse. This treatment of such temporary differences impacts income tax expense and effective income tax rates from year to year.

Federal renewable electricity production tax credits are earned as energy from qualifying wind-powered generating facilities is produced and sold based on a per-kilowatt rate pursuant to the applicable federal income tax law. Wind-powered generating facilities are eligible for the credits for 10 years from the date the qualifying generating facilities are placed in service. A portion of MidAmerican Energy's credits related to wind-powered generating facilities placed in service in 2004 will expire in 2014. A credit of $0.023, $0.022 and $0.022 per kilowatt hour was available for 2013, 2012 and 2011 production, respectively, which resulted in $172 million, $141 million and $93 million, respectively, in recognized production tax credits.

MidAmerican Funding's income tax benefit was $110 million, $108 million and $26 million for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and effective tax rates were (48)%, (46)% and (9)% for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The change in effective tax rates was due principally to the factors discussed for MidAmerican Energy.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy's total net liquidity was $604 million consisting of $194 million of cash and cash equivalents and $605 million of revolving credit facilities reduced by $195 million of the revolving credit facilities reserved to support MidAmerican Energy's variable-rate tax-exempt bond obligations. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Funding's total net liquidity was $608 million, including MHC's $4 million revolving credit facility.

Cash Flows From Operating Activities

MidAmerican Energy's net cash flows from operating activities were $735 million, $1.276 billion and $770 million for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. MidAmerican Funding's net cash flows from operating activities were $721 million, $1.260 billion and $752 million for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The variances in net cash flows were predominantly due to the timing of income tax cash flows with MEHC, which reflect the payment in 2013 of $159 million of income tax liability generated in 2012 compared to the receipt of $274 million in 2012 of income tax benefits generated in 2011. Additionally, a decrease in income tax benefits for bonus depreciation reduced income tax cash flows for 2013 and 2012 relative to the comparative year. The decreases related to bonus depreciation were partially offset by an increase in income tax benefits from greater production tax credits. The timing of MidAmerican Energy's income tax cash flows from period to period can be significantly affected by the estimated federal income tax payment methods and assumptions for each payment date.

The impact of income tax cash flows was partially offset by a reduction in MidAmerican Energy's contributions to its defined benefit pension plan and higher cash receipts from regulated retail customers for 2013 compared to 2012. For 2012, a decrease in interest paid as a result of long-term debt redeemed in 2012 and late 2011 improved net cash flows from operating activities compared to 2011.

In January 2013, the President signed the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 into law, extending the 50% bonus depreciation for qualifying property purchased and placed in service before January 1, 2014 and before January 1, 2015 for certain longer-lived assets. As a result of the new law, MidAmerican Energy's cash flows from operations are expected to benefit in 2014 due to bonus depreciation on qualifying assets placed in service but not to the extent of prior years.

Cash Flows From Investing Activities

MidAmerican Energy's net cash flows used in investing activities were $(1.012) billion, $(639) million and $(559) million for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. MidAmerican Funding's net cash flows used in investing activities were $(1.012) billion, $(638) million and $(558) million for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Net cash flows from investing activities consist almost entirely of utility construction expenditures, which increased for 2013 primarily due to greater expenditures for the construction of wind-powered generating facilities. Utility construction expenditures increased for 2012 compared to 2011 due to greater expenditures for the construction of emissions control equipment at three of MidAmerican Energy's jointly owned generating facilities, partially offset by lower expenditures for wind-powered generating facilities. These cash basis amounts exclude equity AFUDC and deferred vendor payments of $406 million and $647 million for 2012 and 2011, respectively, related to wind-powered generating facilities, as discussed in "Long-term Debt" below. MidAmerican Energy placed in service wind-powered generating facilities totaling 44 MW, 407 MW and 594 MW during 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Purchases and proceeds related to available-for-sale securities consist of activity within the Quad Cities nuclear decommissioning trust.

Cash Flows From Financing Activities

MidAmerican Energy's net cash flows from financing activities were $117 million, $(284) million and $(413) million for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. MidAmerican Funding's net cash flows from financing activities were $131 million, $(269) million and $(396) million for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. In September 2013, MidAmerican Energy issued $350 million of 2.40% First Mortgage Bonds due March 2019, $250 million of 3.70% First Mortgage Bonds due September 2023 and $350 million of 4.80% First Mortgage Bonds due September 2043. The net proceeds were used for the repayment of $669 million of long-term debt from deferred vendor payments maturing December 31, 2013, and for general corporate purposes. In January 2013, MidAmerican Energy paid common dividends of $125 million to MHC Inc. and, in April 2013, paid $28 million for the redemption of all outstanding shares of its preferred securities. In June 2012, MidAmerican Energy redeemed $275 million of 5.125% senior notes due January 2013 and, in December 2011, redeemed $400 million of 5.65% senior notes due July 2012 at redemption prices in accordance with the terms of the indenture. MidAmerican Funding paid $(111) million in 2013 and received $15 million in 2012 and $217 million in 2011 through its note payable with MEHC and repaid $200 million of 6.75% Senior notes in March 2011.

37

Long-term Debt

In conjunction with the construction of wind-powered generating facilities in 2011 and 2012, MidAmerican Energy accrued in gross utility plant in service amounts for turbine purchases it was not contractually obligated to pay until December 2013 and December 2015 for construction in 2011 and 2012, respectively. The amounts ultimately payable were discounted and recognized upon delivery of the equipment as long-term debt. The discount is being amortized as interest expense over the period until payment is due using the effective interest method. The remaining amount ultimately payable is reflected as a turbine purchase obligation on the Statements of Capitalization.

Debt Authorizations and Related Matters

MidAmerican Energy has authority from the FERC to issue through October 30, 2014, commercial paper and bank notes aggregating $600 million at interest rates not to exceed the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus a spread of 400 basis points. MidAmerican Energy has a $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility expiring in March 2018. MidAmerican Energy may request that the banks extend the credit facility up to two years. The credit facility, which supports MidAmerican Energy's commercial paper program and its variable-rate tax-exempt bond obligations and provides for the issuance of letters of credit, has a variable interest rate based on LIBOR or a base rate, at MidAmerican Energy's option, plus a spread that varies based on MidAmerican Energy's credit ratings for senior unsecured long-term debt securities. Additionally, MidAmerican Energy has a $5 million unsecured credit facility for general corporate purposes.

MidAmerican Energy currently has an effective registration statement with the SEC to issue up to $1.65 billion of long-term debt securities through November 12, 2016. Additionally, MidAmerican Energy has authorization from the FERC to issue through December 30, 2015, long-term securities totaling up to $925 million at interest rates not to exceed the applicable United States Treasury rate plus a spread of 175 basis points. MidAmerican Energy has authorizations from the ICC to issue up to an aggregate of $1.3 billion of additional long-term debt securities, of which $550 million expires December 19, 2015, and $750 million expires December 9, 2016. Additionally, MidAmerican Energy has authorization from the ICC, expiring October 1, 2014, to issue up to $350 million of long-term debt securities for the purpose of refinancing currently outstanding long-term debt.

In conjunction with the March 1999 merger, MidAmerican Energy committed to the IUB to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain an investment grade rating on its long-term debt and to maintain its common equity level above 42% of total capitalization unless circumstances beyond its control result in the common equity level decreasing to below 39% of total capitalization. MidAmerican Energy must seek the approval of the IUB of a reasonable utility capital structure if MidAmerican Energy's common equity level decreases below 42% of total capitalization, unless the decrease is beyond the control of MidAmerican Energy. MidAmerican Energy is also required to seek the approval of the IUB if MidAmerican Energy's equity level decreases to below 39%, even if the decrease is due to circumstances beyond the control of MidAmerican Energy. If MidAmerican Energy's common equity level were to drop below the required thresholds, MidAmerican Energy's ability to issue debt could be restricted. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy's common equity ratio was 51% computed on a basis consistent with its commitment. As a result of MidAmerican Energy's regulatory commitment to maintain its common equity above certain thresholds, MidAmerican Energy could dividend $1.3 billion as of December 31, 2013, without falling below 42%, and MidAmerican Funding had restricted net assets of $2.6 billion.

MidAmerican Funding or one of its subsidiaries, including MidAmerican Energy, may from time to time seek to acquire its outstanding debt securities through cash purchases in the open market, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Any debt securities repurchased by MidAmerican Funding or one of its subsidiaries may be reissued or resold by MidAmerican Funding or one of its subsidiaries from time to time and will depend on prevailing market conditions, the issuing company's liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Future Uses of Cash

MidAmerican Energy and MidAmerican Funding have available a variety of sources of liquidity and capital resources, both internal and external, including net cash flows from operating activities, public and private debt offerings, the issuance of commercial paper, the use of unsecured revolving credit facilities, and other sources. These sources are expected to provide funds required for current operations, capital expenditures, debt retirements and other capital requirements. The availability and terms under which MidAmerican Energy and MidAmerican Funding have access to external financing depends on a variety of factors, including their credit ratings, investors' judgment of risk and conditions in the overall capital markets, including the condition of the utility industry.

38

Utility Construction Expenditures

MidAmerican Energy's primary need for capital is utility construction expenditures. Capital expenditure needs are reviewed regularly by management and may change significantly as a result of these reviews, which may consider, among other factors, changes in environmental and other rules and regulations; impacts to customers' rates; outcomes of regulatory proceedings; changes in income tax laws; general business conditions; load projections; system reliability standards; the cost and efficiency of construction labor, equipment and materials; commodity prices; and the cost and availability of capital. Prudently incurred expenditures for compliance-related items such as pollution-control technologies, replacement generation, nuclear decommissioning and associated operating costs are generally incorporated into MidAmerican Energy's regulated retail rates.

MidAmerican Energy's historical and forecasted capital expenditures, each of which exclude amounts for non-cash equity AFUDC and other non-cash items, for the years ended December 31 are as follows (in millions):

	Historical						Forecast
	2011		2012		2013		2014		2015		2016
Construction and other development projects	$	328	$	369	$	607	$	1,010	$	857	$	137
Operating projects	237		277		419		461		367		321
Total	$	565	$	646	$	1,026	$	1,471	$	1,224	$	458

MidAmerican Energy's historical and forecasted capital expenditures include the following:

• The construction of wind-powered generating facilities totaling $401 million for 2013, $168 million for 2012, which excludes $406 million of costs for which payments are due in December 2015, and $295 million for 2011, which excludes $647 million of costs for which payments were due in December 2013. In August 2013, the IUB approved a settlement agreement between MidAmerican Energy and the Iowa Office of Consumer Advocate for ratemaking principles related to the construction of up to 1,050 MW (nominal ratings) of wind-powered generating facilities, 44 MW (nominal ratings) of which were in service as of December 31, 2013. Forecasted capital expenditures included in the table above related to the remaining 1,006 MW (nominal ratings) to be placed in service in 2014 and 2015 are $677 million for 2014 and $626 million for 2015. MidAmerican Energy expects all of these wind-powered generating facilities to qualify for federal production tax credits. MidAmerican Energy continues to evaluate additional cost effective wind-powered generation.

• The construction of emissions control equipment, primarily at George Neal Energy Center Units 3 and 4 and Ottumwa Generating Station to meet air quality targets, including the reduction of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and particulate matter emissions, totaled $171 million for 2013, $189 million for 2012 and $28 million for 2011. MidAmerican Energy has implemented a planning process that forecasts the site-specific controls and actions that may be required at generating facilities operated by MidAmerican Energy in order to meet emissions reductions as promulgated by the EPA. The plan, which under Iowa law must be filed with and approved by the IUB and updated every two years, is designed to effectively manage MidAmerican Energy's expenditures required to comply with emissions standards. In April 2012, MidAmerican Energy submitted to the IUB an updated plan that estimated the cost of capital expenditures for emission control equipment included in the plan for compliance with current air quality requirements would total $75 million for 2014 through 2016. In addition to those expenditures, the forecasted capital expenditures reflected in the table above include $68 million for environmental capital expenditures at generating facilities jointly owned but not operated by MidAmerican Energy and other environmental projects not covered by the plan submitted to the IUB. Total forecasted environmental capital expenditures are $93 million, $33 million and $17 million for 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively, and consist primarily of expenditures at George Neal Energy Center Units 3 and 4 and Ottumwa Generating Station. Estimates of environmental capital and operating requirements may change significantly at any time as a result of, among other factors, changes in related regulations, prices of products used to meet the requirements and management's strategies for achieving compliance with the regulations.

• MidAmerican Energy has approval from the MISO for four Multi-Value Projects ("MVPs") located in Iowa and Illinois totaling approximately $528 million in capital expenditures, excluding non-cash equity AFUDC. Related capital expenditures totaled $20 million for 2013 and $5 million for 2012. Forecasted capital expenditures for these MVPs are $157 million, $201 million and $114 million, for 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively. These projects, which will add approximately 245 miles of 345 kV transmission line to MidAmerican Energy's transmission system, will be owned and operated by MidAmerican Energy.

• Remaining amounts are primarily for ongoing investments in transmission, distribution, generation and other infrastructure needed to serve existing and expected demand.

MidAmerican Energy has other types of commitments that relate primarily to construction expenditures (in "Utility Construction Expenditures" section above) and asset retirement obligations (Note 12). Refer, where applicable, to the respective referenced note in Notes to Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information.

Regulatory Matters

In May 2013, MidAmerican Energy filed a request with the IUB for an increase in Iowa retail electric rates. MidAmerican Energy began collecting, subject to refund, interim rates in the third quarter of 2013 as approved by the IUB. In November 2013, MidAmerican Energy filed with the IUB a non-unanimous settlement agreement between MidAmerican Energy, the OCA and environmental parties in the proceeding. The settlement agreement, which is subject to IUB approval, proposes an increase in base rates that would be phased in over approximately three years and would result in equal annualized increases in revenues of $45 million, or 3.6% over 2012, effective with the start of interim rates and again on January 1, 2015 and 2016, for a total annualized increase of $135 million when fully implemented. Under the settlement agreement, the parties agree not to seek or support an increase or decrease in the final base rates to become effective prior to January 1, 2018, unless MidAmerican Energy projects its return on equity for 2015, 2016 or 2017 to be below 10%. In addition to an increase in base rates, the settlement agreement provides for the creation of two new adjustment clauses to be effective with the implementation of final approved rates. One clause would be for the recovery of changes in certain energy production related costs such as fuel, fuel transportation and the impacts of the production tax credit. The second clause would be for recovery of certain electric transmission charges. The adjustment clauses allow for fluctuations in these costs to be contemporaneously recovered from customers. The settlement agreement also proposes a revenue sharing mechanism that shares with customers 80% of revenues related to equity returns above 11%. In February 2014, the IUB held a decision meeting and voted to approve the settlement without material modification. The public decision announcement is not final, and the IUB has the discretion to alter its decision on the issues. The IUB’s decision will only become final when the written order is issued. A written order is expected from the IUB by the end of the first quarter of 2014.

In December 2013, MidAmerican Energy filed a request with the Illinois Commerce Commission ("ICC") for a $22 million, or 17%, annual increase in Illinois retail electric base rates. In addition to the increase in base rates, the filing contains a request for the creation of a new adjustment clause for recovery of certain electric transmission charges to be effective with the implementation of final approved rates. A final ICC decision in the case is expected in late 2014.

40

Environmental Laws and Regulations

MidAmerican Energy is subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations regarding air and water quality, emissions performance standards, climate change, coal combustion byproduct disposal, hazardous and solid waste disposal, protected species and other environmental matters that have the potential to impact its current and future operations. In addition to imposing continuing compliance obligations, these laws and regulations provide regulators with the authority to levy substantial penalties for noncompliance including fines, injunctive relief and other sanctions. These laws and regulations are administered by the EPA and various state and local agencies. MidAmerican Energy believes it is in material compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, although many are subject to interpretation that may ultimately be resolved by the courts. Refer to "Liquidity and Capital Resources" for discussion of MidAmerican Energy's forecasted environmental-related capital expenditures.

Clean Air Act Regulations

The Clean Air Act is a federal law administered by the EPA that provides a framework for protecting and improving the nation's air quality and controlling sources of air emissions. The implementation of new standards is generally outlined in SIPs, which are a collection of regulations, programs and policies to be followed. SIPs vary by state and are subject to public hearings and EPA approval. Some states may adopt additional or more stringent requirements than those implemented by the EPA. The major Clean Air Act programs most directly affecting MidAmerican Energy's operations are described below.

National Ambient Air Quality Standards

Under the authority of the Clean Air Act, the EPA sets minimum national ambient air quality standards for six principal pollutants, consisting of carbon monoxide, lead, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, ozone and sulfur dioxide, considered harmful to public health and the environment. Areas that achieve the standards, as determined by ambient air quality monitoring, are characterized as being in attainment, while those that fail to meet the standards are designated as being nonattainment areas. Generally, sources of emissions in a nonattainment area that are determined to contribute to the nonattainment are required to reduce emissions. Most air quality standards require measurement over a defined period of time to determine the average concentration of the pollutant present. Currently, air quality monitoring data indicates that all counties where MidAmerican Energy's major emission sources are located are in attainment of the current national ambient air quality standards.

In January 2010, the EPA proposed a rule to strengthen the national ambient air quality standard for ground level ozone. The proposed rule arose out of legal challenges claiming that a March 2008 rule that reduced the standard from 80 parts per billion to 75 parts per billion was not strict enough. The new rule proposed a standard between 60 and 70 parts per billion. In September 2011, the President requested that the EPA withdraw the proposed ozone standard and allow the review of the standards to proceed through the regularly scheduled review in 2013; such action, however, was not undertaken in 2013.

The EPA has indicated it anticipates proposing ozone standards in 2014. Until the standards are reviewed or revised, the EPA is proceeding with implementation of the March 2008 ozone standards and, in December 2011, issued its response to states' recommendations on area attainment designations.

In January 2010, the EPA finalized a one-hour air quality standard for nitrogen dioxide at 100 parts per billion. In February 2012, the EPA published final designations indicating that based on air quality monitoring data, all areas of the country are designated as "unclassifiable/attainment" for the 2010 nitrogen dioxide national ambient air quality standard.

41

In June 2010, the EPA finalized a new national ambient air quality standard for sulfur dioxide. Under the new rule, the existing 24-hour and annual standards for sulfur dioxide, which were 140 parts per billion measured over 24 hours and 30 parts per billion measured over an entire year, were replaced with a new one-hour standard of 75 parts per billion. The new rule utilizes a three-year average to determine attainment. The rule utilizes source modeling in addition to the installation of ambient monitors where sulfur dioxide emissions impact populated areas. Attainment designations were due by June 2012; however, citing a lack of sufficient information to make the designations, the EPA did not issue its final designations until July 2013 and determined, at that date, that a portion of Muscatine County, Iowa was in nonattainment for the one-hour sulfur dioxide standard. MidAmerican Energy's Louisa coal-fueled generating facility is located just outside of Muscatine County, south of the violating monitor. In its final designation, the EPA indicated that it was not yet prepared to conclude that the emissions from the Louisa coal-fueled generating facility contribute to the monitored violation or to other possible violations, and that in a subsequent round of designations, the EPA will make decisions for areas and sources outside Muscatine County. MidAmerican Energy does not believe a subsequent nonattainment designation will have a material impact on the Louisa coal-fueled generating facility.

In June 2012, the EPA released a proposal to strengthen the fine particulate matter national ambient air quality standards, reducing the standard from 15 micrograms per cubic meter to a range of 12 to 13 micrograms per cubic meter while taking comment on a standard of 11 micrograms per cubic meter. The EPA also proposed a new, separate fine particulate matter standard of either 28 or 30 deciviews, aimed at improving visibility. The new standard was released in December 2012, setting 12 micrograms per cubic meter as the annual standard and retaining the 24-hour standard at 35 micrograms per cubic meter. The EPA did not set a separate secondary visibility standard, choosing to rely on the existing secondary 24-hour standard to protect against visibility impairment. The EPA anticipates making initial attainment designations by December 2014 that are likely to become effective in early 2015. States would have until 2020 to meet the revised annual standard. Until the attainment designations are made, MidAmerican Energy cannot determine the potential impacts of the standards; however, with the release of the final standards, the EPA indicated its projections show 99% of all counties in the United States with monitors would meet the revised standard. As a result, MidAmerican Energy does not anticipate that any impacts of the revised standard will be significant.

As new, more stringent standards are adopted, the number of counties designated as nonattainment areas is likely to increase. Businesses operating in newly designated nonattainment counties could face increased regulation and costs to monitor or reduce emissions. For instance, existing major emissions sources may have to install reasonably available control technologies to achieve certain reductions in emissions and undertake additional monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting. The construction or modification of facilities that are sources of emissions could become more difficult in nonattainment areas. Until additional monitoring and modeling is conducted, the impacts on MidAmerican Energy cannot be determined.

Mercury and Air Toxics Standards

The Clean Air Mercury Rule ("CAMR"), issued by the EPA in March 2005, was the United States' first attempt to regulate mercury emissions from coal-fueled generating facilities through the use of a market-based cap-and-trade system. The CAMR, which mandated emissions reductions of approximately 70% by 2018, was overturned by the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ("D.C. Circuit") in February 2008. In March 2011, the EPA proposed a new rule that would require coal-fueled generating facilities to reduce mercury emissions and other hazardous air pollutants through the establishment of "Maximum Achievable Control Technology" standards rather than a cap-and-trade system. The final rule, MATS, was published in the Federal Register in February 2012, with an effective date of April 16, 2012, and requires that new and existing coal-fueled facilities achieve emission standards for mercury, acid gases and other non-mercury hazardous air pollutants. Existing sources are required to comply with the new standards by April 16, 2015. Individual sources may be granted up to one additional year, at the discretion of the Title V permitting authority, to complete installation of controls or for transmission system reliability reasons. MidAmerican Energy believes that its emissions reduction projects completed to date or currently permitted or planned for installation, including scrubbers, baghouses and electrostatic precipitators, are consistent with the EPA's MATS and will support MidAmerican Energy's ability to comply with the final rule's standards for acid gases and non-mercury metallic hazardous air pollutants. MidAmerican Energy will be required to take additional actions to reduce mercury emissions through the installation of controls or use of sorbent injection at certain of its coal-fueled generating facilities and otherwise comply with the final rule's standards, which may include retiring certain units.

MidAmerican Energy plans to retire four coal-fueled generating units between 2015 and 2016 as the most cost-effective MATS compliance option. These units are Walter Scott, Jr. Energy Center Units 1 and 2, and George Neal Energy Center Units 1 and 2. These units produced 2.0 million MWh of electricity, or 7% of MidAmerican Energy's owned generation production, during 2013. A fifth unit, Riverside Generating Station, will be limited to natural gas combustion by March 31, 2015.

42

Incremental costs to install and maintain emissions control equipment at MidAmerican Energy's coal-fueled generating facilities and any requirement to shut down what have traditionally been low cost coal-fueled generating facilities will likely increase the cost of providing service to customers. In addition, numerous lawsuits are pending against the MATS in the D.C. Circuit, which may have an impact on MidAmerican Energy's compliance obligations and the timing of those obligations. Oral arguments were heard on the MATS in the D.C. Circuit in December 2013, and a decision in the pending cases is expected in 2014.

Clean Air Interstate Rule, Clean Air Transport Rule and Cross-State Air Pollution Rule

The EPA promulgated the CAIR in March 2005 to reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide, precursors of ozone and particulate matter, from down-wind sources. The CAIR required states in the eastern United States, including Iowa, to reduce emissions by implementing a plan based on a market-based cap-and-trade system, emissions reductions, or both. The CAIR created separate trading programs for nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide emissions credits. The nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide emissions reductions were planned to be accomplished in two phases, in 2009-2010 and 2015.

In July 2008, a three-judge panel of the D.C. Circuit issued a unanimous decision vacating the CAIR. In December 2008, the D.C. Circuit issued an opinion remanding, without vacating, the CAIR back to the EPA to conduct proceedings to fix the flaws in CAIR consistent with the D.C. Circuit's July 2008 ruling. In response to the court's ruling on CAIR, in July 2010, the EPA proposed the Clean Air Transport Rule ("Transport Rule"), which required electric generating units in 31 states and the District of Columbia to reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide on a state-by-state basis in accordance with each state's modeled contribution to nonattainment of the ozone and fine particulate standards in downwind states.

In July 2011, the EPA issued the final Transport Rule, renamed the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule ("CSAPR"), to address interstate transport of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides emissions in 27 eastern and Midwestern states. Upon full implementation in 2014, the CSAPR would have reduced total sulfur dioxide emissions by 73% and nitrogen oxides emissions by 54% at electric generating facilities in the 27-state region as compared to 2005 levels.

In December 2011, the D.C. Circuit issued a stay on the implementation of the CSAPR pending consideration of several petitions for review before the court, which were ultimately decided in August 2012, when the D.C. Circuit vacated the CSAPR in a 2-1 decision after it determined that the CSAPR exceeded the EPA's statutory authority. In a petition filed in October 2012, the EPA sought a full review of the CSAPR ruling by the entire D.C. Circuit. In January 2013, the D.C. Circuit denied the request. The case was appealed to the United States Supreme Court where oral arguments were heard in December 2013. Until such time as the legal challenges to the CSAPR are resolved or the EPA proposes and adopts a new rule, MidAmerican Energy is required and will continue to operate in compliance with the CAIR, which has remained in effect since 2008.

MidAmerican Energy has installed or is in the process of installing emissions controls at some of its coal-fueled generating facilities to comply with the CAIR and may purchase nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide emissions credits for emissions in excess of allocated allowances. The cost of these credits is subject to market conditions at the time of purchase and historically has not been material. The full impact of the CSAPR, or the CAIR, cannot be determined until the outcome of the litigation pending before the United States Supreme Court is known or the stay of the CSAPR is lifted. It is possible that the existing CAIR or a replacement rule may include more stringent requirements to reduce nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide emissions.

MidAmerican Energy operates natural gas-fueled generating facilities in Iowa, which are subject to the CAIR until a replacement rule is adopted. However, the provisions are not anticipated to have a material impact on MidAmerican Energy.

Regional Haze

The EPA has initiated a regional haze program intended to improve visibility in designated federally protected areas ("Class I areas"). MidAmerican Energy's units that may be subject to best available retrofit technology requirements have been addressed by the EPA's proposals to accept the emission reductions made by states impacted by the CSAPR or CAIR, including Iowa, as meeting the requirements of the regional haze program. If the EPA continues to support its position, no further emission reductions are expected from MidAmerican Energy's coal-fueled generating facilities for purposes of meeting the regional haze requirements. The EPA's determination that the CSAPR or CAIR meet or exceed the regional haze requirements is currently on appeal in the D.C. Circuit.

New Source Review

Under existing New Source Review ("NSR") provisions of the Clean Air Act, any facility that emits regulated pollutants is required to obtain a permit from the EPA or a state regulatory agency prior to (a) beginning construction of a new major stationary source of a regulated pollutant or (b) making a physical or operational change to an existing stationary source of such pollutants that increases certain levels of emissions, unless the changes are exempt under the regulations (including routine maintenance, repair and replacement of equipment). In general, projects subject to NSR regulations require pre-construction review and permitting under the Prevention of Significant Deterioration ("PSD") provisions of the Clean Air Act. Under the PSD program, a project that emits threshold levels of regulated pollutants must undergo an analysis to determine the best available control technology and evaluate the most effective emissions controls after consideration of a number of factors. Violations of NSR regulations, which may be alleged by the EPA, states, environmental groups and others, potentially subject a company to material fines and other sanctions and remedies, including installation of enhanced pollution controls and funding of supplemental environmental projects.

Numerous changes have been proposed to the NSR rules and regulations over the last several years. In addition to the proposed changes, differing interpretations by the EPA and the courts create risk and uncertainty for entities when seeking permits for new projects and installing emissions controls at existing facilities under NSR requirements. MidAmerican Energy monitors these changes and interpretations to ensure permitting activities are conducted in accordance with the applicable requirements.

As part of an industry-wide investigation to assess compliance with the NSR and PSD provisions, the EPA has requested information and supporting documentation from numerous utilities regarding their capital projects for various coal-fueled generating facilities. A NSR enforcement case against an unrelated utility has been decided by the United States Supreme Court, holding that an increase in the annual emissions of a generating facility, when combined with a modification (i.e., a physical or operational change), may trigger NSR permitting. Between 2002 and 2003, MidAmerican Energy responded to requests for information relating to capital projects at MidAmerican Energy's coal-fueled generating facilities.

In October 2011, MidAmerican Energy received a request from the EPA Region 7 pursuant to Section 114 of the Clean Air Act for information on its coal-fueled generating facilities to supplement the requests made in 2002 and 2003. MidAmerican Energy submitted its response to the October 2011 request in December 2011. MidAmerican Energy cannot predict the outcome of this matter at this time.

Climate Change

While significant measures to regulate GHG emissions at the federal level were considered by the United States Congress in 2010, comprehensive climate change legislation has not been adopted. Regulation of GHG emissions under various provisions of the Clean Air Act has continued since the EPA's December 2009 findings that GHG emissions threaten public health and welfare.

In May 2010, the EPA issued the GHG "Tailoring Rule" to address permitting requirements for GHG after determining that GHG are subject to regulation and would trigger Clean Air Act permitting requirements for stationary sources beginning in January 2011. Numerous lawsuits have been filed on both the EPA's endangerment finding and the Tailoring Rule in the D.C. Circuit. In June 2012, the D.C. Circuit dismissed the challenges to the rules and upheld the EPA's actions. Petitions for rehearing by the full D.C. Circuit were filed, which were denied in December 2012.

In April 2012, the EPA proposed New Source Performance Standards for GHG at new fossil-fueled generating facilities that would require an emissions rate of 1,000 pounds per MWh. In September 2013, the EPA issued a re-proposal of the New Source Performance Standards for GHG at new fossil-fueled generating facilities that would require natural gas-fueled generating facilities to meet a standard of 1,000 pounds to 1,100 pounds per MWh and coal-fueled generating facilities to meet a standard of 1,100 pounds per MWh on an annual basis. The re-proposed standards were published in the Federal Register in January 2014, and the public comment period closes March 10, 2014. Any new fossil-fueled generating units constructed by MidAmerican Energy will be required to meet the final New Source Performance Standards. The EPA is also under a consent decree to establish GHG emissions performance standards for existing and modified sources. In June 2013, President Obama issued a Climate Action Plan, which requires the EPA to issue proposed guidelines for GHG emissions from existing fossil-fueled generating facilities by June 2014, with final guidelines to be issued by June 2015, and states to submit implementation plans by June 2016. Until the standards or guidelines for existing fossil-fueled generating facilities are proposed and finalized, the impact on MidAmerican Energy's generating facilities cannot be determined.

44

While the debate continues at the federal and international level over the direction of climate change policy, several states have continued to implement state-specific laws or regional initiatives to report or mitigate GHG emissions. In addition, governmental, non-governmental and environmental organizations have become more active in pursuing climate change related litigation under existing laws.

In September 2009, the EPA issued its final rule regarding mandatory reporting of GHG ("GHG Reporting") beginning January 1, 2010. Under GHG Reporting, suppliers of fossil fuels, manufacturers of vehicles and engines, and facilities that emit 25,000 metric tons or more per year of GHG are required to submit annual reports to the EPA. MidAmerican Energy is subject to this requirement.

In the absence of comprehensive climate legislation or regulation, MidAmerican Energy has continued to invest in lower- and non-carbon generating resources and to operate in an environmentally responsible manner. Examples of MidAmerican Energy's significant investments in programs and facilities that mitigate its GHG emissions include:

• MidAmerican Energy owns the largest portfolio of wind-powered generating capacity in the United States among rate-regulated utilities. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy had 3,335 MW (nominal ratings) of wind-powered generating capacity in operation and under construction at a total cost when constructed of approximately $5 billion. As of December 31, 2013, 2,329 MW (nominal ratings) of wind-powered generating capacity was in service. Additionally, MidAmerican Energy has a long-term power purchase agreement for 109 MW of wind-powered generating capacity.

• MidAmerican Energy has offered customers a comprehensive set of DSM programs for more than 20 years. The programs assist customers to manage the timing of their usage, as well as to reduce overall energy consumption, resulting in lower utility bills.

New federal, regional, state and international accords, legislation, regulation, or judicial proceedings limiting GHG emissions could have a material adverse impact on MidAmerican Energy, the United States and the global economy. Companies and industries with higher GHG emissions, such as utilities with significant coal-fueled generating facilities, will be subject to more direct impacts and greater financial and regulatory risks. The impact is dependent on numerous factors, none of which can be meaningfully quantified at this time. These factors include, but are not limited to, the magnitude and timing of GHG emissions reduction requirements; the design of the requirements; the cost, availability and effectiveness of emissions control technology; the price, distribution method and availability of offsets and allowances used for compliance; government-imposed compliance costs; and the existence and nature of incremental cost recovery mechanisms. Examples of how new requirements may impact MidAmerican Energy include:

• Additional costs may be incurred to purchase required emissions allowances under any market-based cap-and-trade system in excess of allocations that are received at no cost. These purchases would be necessary until new technologies could be developed and deployed to reduce emissions or lower carbon generation is available;

• Acquiring and renewing construction and operating permits for new and existing generating facilities may be costly and difficult;

• Additional costs may be incurred to purchase and deploy new generating technologies;

• Costs may be incurred to retire existing coal-fueled generating facilities before the end of their otherwise useful lives or to convert them to burn fuels, such as natural gas or biomass, that result in lower emissions;

• Operating costs may be higher and generating unit outputs may be lower;

• Higher interest and financing costs and reduced access to capital markets may result to the extent that financial markets view climate change and GHG emissions as a business risk; and

• Retail sales may be impacted in response to changes in customer demand and requirements to reduce GHG emissions.

The impact of events or conditions caused by climate change, whether from natural processes or human activities, could vary widely, from highly localized to worldwide, and the extent to which a utility's operations may be affected is uncertain. Climate change may cause physical and financial risk through, among other things, sea level rise, changes in precipitation and extreme weather events. Consumer demand for energy may increase or decrease, based on overall changes in weather and as customers promote lower energy consumption through the continued use of energy efficiency programs or other means. Availability of resources to generate electricity, such as water for hydroelectric production and cooling purposes, may also be impacted by climate change and could influence MidAmerican Energy's existing and future electricity generating portfolio. These issues may have a direct impact on the costs of electricity production and increase the price customers pay or their demand for electricity.

GHG Tailoring Rule

The EPA finalized the GHG "Tailoring Rule" in May 2010 requiring new or modified sources of GHG emissions with increases of 75,000 or more tons per year of total GHG to determine the best available control technology for their GHG emissions beginning in January 2011. New or existing major sources are also subject to Title V operating permit requirements for GHG. Beginning July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2013, new construction projects that emit GHG emissions of at least 100,000 tons per year and modifications of existing facilities that increase GHG emissions by at least 75,000 tons per year will be subject to permitting requirements and facilities that were previously not subject to Title V permitting requirements will be required to obtain Title V permits if they emit at least 100,000 tons per year of carbon dioxide equivalents. The EPA issued a GHG best available control technology guidance document in November 2010 in an effort to provide permitting authorities guidance on how to conduct a best available control technology review for GHG.

MidAmerican Energy has obtained permits to install emissions reduction equipment at existing generating facilities to comply with the transport rule (previously referenced as CSAPR and in its current implementation of the CAIR requirements) and was required to assess the impacts of the projects on GHG emissions. A GHG emissions limit was imposed on the permits for those projects, and management believes compliance with the GHG limits under these permits will not result in a material adverse impact on its operations. To date, permitting authorities implementing the GHG Tailoring Rule have included efficiency improvements to demonstrate compliance with best available control technology for GHG, as well as requiring emissions limits for GHGs in permits; as such, the impacts of the Tailoring Rule on MidAmerican Energy has not been material.

GHG Performance Standards

Under the Clean Air Act, the EPA may establish emissions standards that reflect the degree of emissions reductions achievable through the best technology that has been demonstrated, taking into consideration the cost of achieving those reductions and any non-air quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements. The EPA entered into a settlement agreement with a number of parties, including certain state governments and environmental groups, in December 2010 to promulgate emissions standards covering GHG. In April 2012, the EPA proposed new source performance standards for new fossil-fueled generating facilities that would limit emissions of carbon dioxide to 1,000 pounds per MWh. In June 2013, President Obama announced a national climate change strategy and issued a presidential memorandum requiring the EPA to issue a re-proposed GHG new source performance standard for fossil-fueled generating facilities by September 2013. Rather than re-propose the April 2012 proposal, the EPA issued a new proposal. The September 2013 GHG new source performance standards released by the EPA set different standards for coal-fueled and natural gas-fueled generating facilities. The proposed standard for natural gas-fueled generating facilities considers the size of the unit and the electricity sent to the grid from the unit, establishing a standard of 1,000 to 1,100 pounds of carbon dioxide per MWh. The standard proposed for coal-fueled generating facilities is 1,100 pounds of carbon dioxide per MWh on an annual basis or 1,000 to 1,050 pounds of carbon dioxide per MWh averaged over a seven-year period, both of which would require partial carbon capture and sequestration. The proposed standards were published in the Federal Register January 8, 2014, and the 60-day public comment period closes March 10, 2014. Any new fossil-fueled generating facilities constructed by MidAmerican Energy will be required to meet the final GHG new source performance standards.

GHG Litigation

MidAmerican Energy closely monitors ongoing environmental litigation. Numerous lawsuits have been unsuccessfully pursued against the industry that attempt to link GHG emissions to public or private harm. The lower courts initially refrained from adjudicating the cases under the "political question" doctrine, because of their inherently political nature. These cases have typically been appealed to federal appellate courts and, in certain circumstances, to the United States Supreme Court. While unsuccessful to date, an adverse ruling in such cases would likely result in increased regulation and costs for GHG emitters, including MidAmerican Energy's generating facilities.

46

Water Quality Standards

The federal Water Pollution Control Act ("Clean Water Act") establishes the framework for maintaining and improving water quality in the United States through a program that regulates, among other things, discharges to and withdrawals from waterways. The Clean Water Act requires that cooling water intake structures reflect the "best technology available for minimizing adverse environmental impact" to aquatic organisms. In July 2004, the EPA established significant new technology-based performance standards for existing electricity generating facilities that take in more than 50 million gallons of water per day. These rules were aimed at minimizing the adverse environmental impacts of cooling water intake structures by reducing the number of aquatic organisms lost as a result of water withdrawals. In response to a legal challenge to the rule, in January 2007, the Second Circuit remanded almost all aspects of the rule to the EPA, without addressing whether companies with cooling water intake structures were required to comply with these requirements. On appeal from the Second Circuit, in April 2009, the United States Supreme Court ruled that the EPA permissibly relied on a cost-benefit analysis in setting the national performance standards regarding "best technology available for minimizing adverse environmental impact" at cooling water intake structures and in providing for cost-benefit variances from those standards as part of the §316(b) Clean Water Act Phase II regulations. The United States Supreme Court remanded the case back to the Second Circuit to conduct further proceedings consistent with its opinion.

In March 2011, the EPA released a proposed rule under §316(b) of the Clean Water Act to regulate cooling water intakes at existing facilities. The proposed rule establishes requirements for all power generating facilities that withdraw more than two million gallons per day, based on total design intake capacity, of water from waters of the United States and use at least 25% of the withdrawn water exclusively for cooling purposes. All of MidAmerican Energy's coal-fueled generating facilities, except Louisa, Ottumwa and Walter Scott, Jr. Unit 4, which have water cooling towers, withdraw more than two million gallons per day of water from waters of the United States for once-through cooling applications. The proposed rule includes impingement (i.e., when fish and other organisms are trapped against screens when water is drawn into a facility's cooling system) mortality standards to be met through average impingement mortality or intake velocity design criteria and entrainment (i.e., when organisms are drawn into the facility) standards to be determined on a case-by-case basis. The standards are required to be met as soon as possible after the effective date of the final rule, but no later than eight years thereafter. While the rule was required to be finalized by the EPA by July 2012, the deadline for finalizing the rule was extended to June 2013 and then again to January 2014. Currently, the EPA is under an agreement to issue its final rule no later than April 17, 2014. Until the final rule is released, it cannot be determined when MidAmerican Energy's generating facilities impacted by the final rule will be required to complete impingement and entrainment studies to assess compliance options. The costs of compliance with the cooling water intake structure rule cannot be determined until the rule is final and the prescribed studies are conducted. In the event that MidAmerican Energy's existing intake structures require modification, the costs are not anticipated to be significant to its financial statements.

In June 2013, the EPA published proposed effluent limitation guidelines and standards for the steam electric power generating sector. These guidelines, which had not been revised since 1982, were revised in response to the EPA's concerns that the addition of controls for air emissions have changed the effluent discharged from coal- and natural gas-fueled generating facilities. The EPA expects the final rule to be published in May 2014. It is likely that the new guidelines will impose more stringent limits on wastewater discharges from coal-fueled generating facilities and ash and scrubber ponds. However, until the revised guidelines are finalized, MidAmerican Energy cannot predict the impact on its generating facilities.

Coal Combustion Byproduct Disposal

In May 2010, the EPA released a proposed rule to regulate the management and disposal of coal combustion byproducts, presenting two alternatives to regulation under the RCRA. Under the first option, coal combustion byproducts would be regulated as special waste under RCRA Subtitle C and the EPA would establish requirements for coal combustion byproducts from the point of generation to disposition, including the closure of disposal units. Alternatively, the EPA is considering regulation under RCRA Subtitle D under which it would establish minimum nationwide standards for the disposal of coal combustion byproducts. Under both options, surface impoundments utilized for coal combustion byproducts would have to be cleaned and closed unless they could meet more stringent regulatory requirements; in addition, more stringent requirements would be implemented for new ash landfills and expansions of existing ash landfills. The public comment period closed in November 2010. The EPA has indicated the rule will be finalized by December 19, 2014; however, at this time, the substance of the final rule is not known. In briefs filed in litigation pending in the D.C. Circuit to force the EPA to meet a deadline to issue final coal combustion byproduct rules, the EPA indicated it needs until at least the end of 2014 to review comments, formulate a risk assessment and coordinate the rule with the effluent limit guidelines. Efforts have continued in the United States Congress to pass legislation precluding the EPA from regulating coal combustion byproducts as a hazardous waste under RCRA Subtitle C; however, to date, none of these efforts have resulted in legislation passing both houses of the United States Congress.

47

MidAmerican Energy operates eight surface impoundments and four landfills that contain coal combustion byproducts. These ash impoundments and landfills may be impacted by the newly proposed regulation, particularly if the materials are regulated as hazardous or special waste under RCRA Subtitle C, and could pose significant additional costs associated with ash management and disposal activities at MidAmerican Energy's coal-fueled generating facilities. The impact of the proposed regulations on coal combustion byproducts cannot be determined at this time; however, MidAmerican Energy has begun developing surface impoundment and landfill compliance plan options to ensure that physical infrastructure decisions are aligned with the potential outcomes of the rulemaking. It is believed that the EPA will, in its final rulemaking, continue to allow the beneficial use of ash. An assessment released in February 2014 by the EPA indicates that encapsulated beneficial reuse of coal ash in concrete and wallboard products is acceptable after concluding the potential for release of hazardous constituents was at or below levels for products not containing coal ash. In the event that beneficial use is precluded, MidAmerican Energy will incur increased disposal costs and reduced revenues from the sale of ash, though such impacts are not anticipated to be material as long as the final rules allow disposal under Subtitle D.

Other

Other laws, regulations and agencies to which MidAmerican Energy is subject include, but are not limited to:

• The federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and similar state laws may require any current or former owners or operators of a disposal site, as well as transporters or generators of hazardous substances sent to such disposal site, to share in environmental remediation costs.

• The Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982, under which the United States Department of Energy is responsible for the selection and development of repositories for, and the permanent disposal of, spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive wastes. Refer to Note 12 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information regarding nuclear decommissioning obligations.

MidAmerican Energy expects it will be allowed to recover the prudently incurred costs to comply with the environmental laws and regulations discussed above. MidAmerican Energy's planning efforts take into consideration the complexity of balancing factors such as: (a) pending environmental regulations and requirements to reduce emissions, address waste disposal, ensure water quality, and protect wildlife; (b) avoidance of excessive reliance on any one generation technology; (c) costs and trade-offs of various resource options including energy efficiency, demand response programs, and renewable generation; (d) state-specific energy policies, resource preferences, and economic development efforts; (e) additional transmission investment to reduce power costs and increase efficiency and reliability of the integrated transmission system; and (f) keeping rates as affordable as possible. Due to the number of generating units impacted by environmental regulations, deferring installation of compliance-related projects is often not feasible or cost effective and places MidAmerican Energy at risk of not having access to necessary capital, material, and labor while attempting to perform major equipment installations in a compressed timeframe concurrent with other utilities across the country. Therefore, MidAmerican Energy has established installation schedules with permitting agencies that coordinate compliance timeframes with construction and tie-in of major environmental compliance projects as units are scheduled off-line for planned maintenance outages; these coordinated efforts help reduce costs associated with replacement power and maintain system reliability.

48

Collateral and Contingent Features

Debt securities of MidAmerican Energy are rated by credit rating agencies. Assigned credit ratings are based on each rating agency's assessment of MidAmerican Energy's ability to, in general, meet the obligations of its issued debt securities. The credit ratings are not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities, and there is no assurance that a particular credit rating will continue for any given period of time. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy's credit ratings for its senior secured debt and its issuer credit ratings for senior unsecured debt from the three recognized credit rating agencies were investment grade. As a result of the issuance of first mortgage bonds by MidAmerican Energy in September 2013, its then outstanding senior unsecured debt was equally and ratably secured with such first mortgage bonds. Refer to Note 8 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for a discussion of the issuance of the first mortgage bonds.

MidAmerican Funding and MidAmerican Energy have no credit rating downgrade triggers that would accelerate the maturity dates of its outstanding debt, and a change in ratings is not an event of default under the applicable debt instruments. MidAmerican Energy's unsecured revolving credit facilities do not require the maintenance of a minimum credit rating level in order to draw upon their availability. However, commitment fees and interest rates under the credit facilities are tied to credit ratings and increase or decrease when the ratings change. A ratings downgrade could also increase the future cost of commercial paper, short- and long-term debt issuances or new credit facilities.

In accordance with industry practice, certain wholesale agreements, including derivative contracts, contain credit support provisions that in part base MidAmerican Energy's collateral requirements on its credit ratings for senior unsecured debt as reported by one or more of the three recognized credit rating agencies. These agreements may either specifically provide bilateral rights to demand cash or other security if credit exposures on a net basis exceed specified rating-dependent threshold levels ("credit-risk-related contingent features") or provide the right for counterparties to demand "adequate assurance," or in some cases terminate the contract, in the event of a material adverse change in MidAmerican Energy's creditworthiness. These rights can vary by contract and by counterparty. If all credit-risk-related contingent features or adequate assurance provisions for these agreements had been triggered as of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy would have been required to post $188 million of additional collateral. MidAmerican Energy's collateral requirements could fluctuate considerably due to market price volatility, changes in credit ratings, changes in legislation or regulation, or other factors. Refer to Note 13 of Notes to Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10‑K for a discussion of MidAmerican Energy's collateral requirements specific to its derivative contracts.

In July 2010, the President signed into law the Dodd-Frank Reform Act. The Dodd-Frank Reform Act reshapes financial regulation in the United States by creating new regulators, regulating markets and firms not previously regulated, and providing new enforcement powers to regulators. Virtually all major areas of the Dodd-Frank Reform Act are and have been subject to extensive rulemaking proceedings being conducted both jointly and independently by multiple regulatory agencies, many of which have been completed and others that are expected to be finalized in 2014.

MidAmerican Energy is a party to derivative contracts, including over-the-counter derivative contracts. The Dodd-Frank Reform Act provides for extensive new regulation of over-the-counter derivative contracts and certain market participants, including imposition of position limits, mandatory clearing, exchange trading, capital, margin, reporting, recordkeeping and business conduct requirements. Many of these requirements are primarily for "swap dealers" and "major swap participants," but many of these also impose some requirements on almost all market participants, including MidAmerican Energy. The Dodd-Frank Reform Act provides certain exemptions from many of these requirements for commercial end-users when using derivatives to hedge or mitigate commercial risk of their businesses. MidAmerican Energy qualifies or believes it will qualify for many of these exemptions. MidAmerican Energy generally does not enter into over-the-counter derivative contracts for purposes unrelated to hedging or mitigating commercial risk and has determined that it is not a swap dealer or major swap participant. The outcome of pending and remaining Dodd-Frank Reform Act rulemaking proceedings cannot be predicted, but requirements resulting from these proceedings could directly impact MidAmerican Energy or could have impacts to energy and other markets in general that could have an impact on MidAmerican Energy's financial results.

49

Inflation

Historically, overall inflation and changing prices in the economies where MidAmerican Energy operates have not had a significant impact on its financial results. MidAmerican Energy operates under cost-of-service based rate structures administered by various state commissions and the FERC. Under these rate structures, MidAmerican Energy is allowed to include prudent costs in its rates, including the impact of inflation. MidAmerican Energy attempts to minimize the potential impact of inflation on its operations by employing prudent risk management and hedging strategies and by considering, among other areas, its impact on purchases of energy, operating expenses, materials and equipment costs, contract negotiations, future capital spending programs, and long-term debt issuances. There can be no assurance that such actions will be successful.

New Accounting Pronouncements

For a discussion of new accounting pronouncements affecting MidAmerican Energy and MidAmerican Funding, refer to Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Certain accounting measurements require management to make estimates and judgments concerning transactions that will be settled several years in the future. Amounts recognized on the Financial Statements based on such estimates involve numerous assumptions subject to varying and potentially significant degrees of judgment and uncertainty and will likely change in the future as additional information becomes available. The following critical accounting estimates are impacted significantly by MidAmerican Energy's methods, judgments and assumptions used in the preparation of the Financial Statements and should be read in conjunction with MidAmerican Energy's Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in Note 2 of Notes to Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation

MidAmerican Energy prepares its financial statements in accordance with authoritative guidance for regulated operations, which recognizes the economic effects of regulation. Accordingly, MidAmerican Energy defers the recognition of certain costs or income if it is probable that, through the ratemaking process, there will be a corresponding increase or decrease in future regulated rates. Regulatory assets and liabilities are established to reflect the impacts of these deferrals, which will be recognized in earnings in the periods the corresponding changes in regulated rates occur.

MidAmerican Energy continually evaluates the applicability of the guidance for regulated operations and whether its regulatory assets and liabilities are probable of inclusion in future regulated rates by considering factors such as a change in the regulator's approach to setting rates from cost-based ratemaking to another form of regulation, other regulatory actions or the impact of competition, that could limit MidAmerican Energy's ability to recover its costs. MidAmerican Energy believes the application of the guidance for regulated operations is appropriate, and its existing regulatory assets and liabilities are probable of inclusion in future regulated rates. The evaluation reflects the current political and regulatory climate at both the federal and state levels. If it becomes no longer probable that the deferred costs or income will be included in future regulated rates, the related regulatory assets and liabilities will be written off to net income, returned to customers or re-established as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Total regulatory assets were $748 million and total regulatory liabilities were $875 million as of December 31, 2013. Refer to Note 4 of Notes to Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information regarding regulatory assets and liabilities.

Impairment of Goodwill

MidAmerican Funding's Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2013, includes goodwill from the acquisition of MHC totaling $1.3 billion. Goodwill is allocated to each reporting unit. MidAmerican Funding evaluates goodwill for impairment at least annually and completed its annual review as of October 31. Additionally, no indicators of impairment were identified as of December 31, 2013. A significant amount of judgment is required in estimating the fair value of the reporting unit and performing goodwill impairment tests. MidAmerican Funding uses a variety of methods to estimate a reporting unit's fair value, principally discounted projected future net cash flows. Key assumptions used include, but are not limited to, the use of estimated future cash flows; multiples of earnings and regulatory asset value; and an appropriate discount rate. Estimated future cash flows are impacted by, among other factors, growth rates, changes in regulations and rates, ability to renew contracts and estimates of future commodity prices. In estimating future cash flows, MidAmerican Funding incorporates current market information, as well as historical factors.

50

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits

MidAmerican Energy sponsors defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans that cover the majority of the employees of MEHC and its domestic energy subsidiaries other than PacifiCorp and NV Energy Inc. MidAmerican Energy recognizes the funded status of its defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans on the Balance Sheets. Funded status is the fair value of plan assets minus the benefit obligation as of the measurement date. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy recognized a net liability totaling $25 million for the funded status of its defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans. As of December 31, 2013, amounts not yet recognized as a component of net periodic benefit cost that were included in regulatory assets and regulatory liabilities totaled $26 million and $55 million, respectively.

The expense and benefit obligations relating to these defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans are based on actuarial valuations. Inherent in these valuations are key assumptions, including discount rates, expected long-term rate of return on plan assets and healthcare cost trend rates. These key assumptions are reviewed annually and modified as appropriate. MidAmerican Energy believes that the assumptions utilized in recording obligations under the plans are reasonable based on prior plan experience and current market and economic conditions. Refer to Note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for disclosures about MidAmerican Energy's defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans, including the key assumptions used to calculate the funded status and net periodic benefit cost for these plans as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013.

MidAmerican Energy chooses a discount rate based upon high quality debt security investment yields in effect as of the measurement date that corresponds to the expected benefit period. The pension and other postretirement benefit liabilities increase as the discount rate is reduced.

In establishing its assumption as to the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, MidAmerican Energy utilizes the expected asset allocation and return assumptions for each asset class based on historical performance and forward-looking views of the financial markets. Pension and other postretirement benefits expense increases as the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets decreases. MidAmerican Energy regularly reviews its actual asset allocations and rebalances its investments to its targeted allocations when considered appropriate.

MidAmerican Energy chooses a healthcare cost trend rate that reflects the near and long-term expectations of increases in medical costs and corresponds to the expected benefit payment periods. The healthcare cost trend rate is assumed to gradually decline to 5% by 2019 at which point the rate of increase is assumed to remain constant. Refer to Note 11 of Notes to Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for healthcare cost trend rate sensitivity disclosures.

The key assumptions used may differ materially from period to period due to changing market and economic conditions. These differences may result in a significant impact to pension and other postretirement benefits expense and the funded status. If changes were to occur for the following key assumptions, the approximate effect on the Financial Statements of the total plan before allocations to affiliates would be as follows (in millions):

						Other Postretirement
	Pension Plans					Benefit Plans
	+0.5%			-0.5%		+0.5%			-0.5%
Effect on December 31, 2013 Benefit Obligations:
Discount rate	$	(34	)	$	37	$	(10	)	$	11
Effect on 2013 Periodic Cost:
Discount rate	(4		)	5		—			—
Expected rate of return on plan assets	(3		)	3		(1		)	1

A variety of factors affect the funded status of the plans, including asset returns, discount rates, plan changes and MidAmerican Energy's funding policy for each plan. Additionally, federal laws may require MidAmerican Energy to increase future contributions to its pension plan, which may create more volatility in annual contributions than historically experienced and could have a material impact on financial results.

Income Taxes

In determining MidAmerican Funding's and MidAmerican Energy's income taxes, management is required to interpret complex income tax laws and regulations, which includes consideration of regulatory implications imposed by MidAmerican Energy's various regulatory jurisdictions. MidAmerican Funding's and MidAmerican Energy's income tax returns are subject to continuous examinations by federal, state and local tax authorities that may give rise to different interpretations of these complex laws and regulations. Due to the nature of the examination process, it generally takes years before these examinations are completed and these matters are resolved. MidAmerican Funding and MidAmerican Energy recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more-likely-than-not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that is more-likely-than-not of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Although the ultimate resolution of their federal, state and local tax examinations is uncertain, each company believes it has made adequate provisions for its income tax positions. The aggregate amount of any additional income tax liabilities that may result from these examinations, if any, is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial results. Refer to Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information regarding income taxes.

MidAmerican Energy is required to pass income tax benefits related to certain property-related basis differences and other various differences on to its customers in Iowa. These amounts were recognized as a net regulatory asset totaling $649 million as of December 31, 2013, and will be included in regulated rates when the temporary differences reverse.

Revenue Recognition - Unbilled Revenue

Revenue from electric and natural gas customers is recognized as electricity or natural gas is delivered or services are provided. The determination of customer billings is based on a systematic reading of meters and rates. At the end of each month, energy provided to customers since the date of the last meter reading is estimated, and the corresponding unbilled revenue is recorded. Unbilled revenue was $145 million as of December 31, 2013. Factors that can impact the estimate of unbilled energy include, but are not limited to, seasonal weather patterns, total volumes supplied to the system, line losses, economic impacts and composition of sales among customer classes. Estimates are reversed in the following month and actual revenue is recorded based on subsequent meter readings.

Item 7A.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

MidAmerican Energy's Balance Sheets include assets and liabilities with fair values that are subject to market risks. MidAmerican Energy's significant market risks are primarily associated with commodity prices, interest rates and the extension of credit to counterparties with which it transacts. The following discussion addresses the significant market risks associated with MidAmerican Energy's business activities. MidAmerican Energy has established guidelines for credit risk management. Refer to Notes 2 and 5 of Notes to Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for additional information regarding MidAmerican Energy's contracts accounted for as derivatives.

Commodity Price Risk

MidAmerican Energy is principally exposed to electricity, natural gas, coal and fuel oil commodity price risk as it has an obligation to serve retail customer load in its regulated service territory. MidAmerican Energy also provides nonregulated retail electricity and natural gas services in competitive markets. MidAmerican Energy's load and generating facilities represent substantial underlying commodity positions. Exposures to commodity prices consist mainly of variations in the price of fuel required to generate electricity, wholesale electricity that is purchased and sold, and natural gas supply for regulated and nonregulated retail customers. Commodity prices are subject to wide price swings as supply and demand are impacted by, among many other unpredictable items, weather, market liquidity, generating facility availability, customer usage, storage, and transmission and transportation constraints. MidAmerican Energy does not engage in a material amount of proprietary trading activities. To mitigate a portion of its commodity price risk, MidAmerican Energy uses commodity derivative contracts, which may include forwards, futures, options, swaps and other agreements, to effectively secure future supply or sell future production generally at fixed prices. MidAmerican Energy does not hedge all of its commodity price risk, thereby exposing the unhedged portion to changes in market prices. MidAmerican Energy's exposure to commodity price risk is generally limited by its ability to include the costs in regulated rates, which is subject to regulatory lag that occurs between the time the costs are incurred and when the costs are included in regulated rates, as well as the impact of any customer sharing resulting from cost adjustment mechanisms.

52

The table that follows summarizes MidAmerican Energy's price risk on commodity contracts accounted for as derivatives, excluding collateral netting of $- million and $7 million, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and shows the effects of a hypothetical 10% increase and 10% decrease in forward market prices with the contracted or expected volumes. The selected hypothetical change does not reflect what could be considered the best or worst case scenarios (dollars in millions):

	Fair Value -			Estimated Fair Value after
	Net Asset			Hypothetical Change in Price
	(Liability)			10% increase			10% decrease
As of December 31, 2013:
Not designated as hedging contracts	$	(17	)	$	(27	)	$	(7	)
Designated as hedging contracts	(10		)	27			(47		)
Total commodity derivative contracts	$	(27	)	$	—		$	(54	)
As of December 31, 2012:
Not designated as hedging contracts	$	(45	)	$	(53	)	$	(37	)
Designated as hedging contracts	(32		)	4			(68		)
Total commodity derivative contracts	$	(77	)	$	(49	)	$	(105	)

The majority of MidAmerican Energy's commodity derivative contracts not designated as hedging contracts are recoverable from customers in regulated rates and, therefore, net unrealized gains and losses associated with interim price movements on commodity derivative contracts do not expose MidAmerican Energy to earnings volatility. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, a net regulatory asset of $10 million and $45 million, respectively, was recorded related to the net derivative liability of $17 million and $45 million, respectively. For MidAmerican Energy's commodity derivative contracts designated as hedging contracts, net unrealized gains and losses associated with interim price movements on commodity derivative contracts, to the extent the hedge is considered effective, generally do not expose MidAmerican Energy to earnings volatility. The settled cost of these commodity derivative contracts is generally included in regulated rates. Financial results would be negatively impacted if the costs of wholesale electricity, natural gas or fuel are higher than what is included in regulated rates, including the impacts of adjustment mechanisms.

Interest Rate Risk

MidAmerican Energy and MidAmerican Funding are exposed to interest rate risk on their outstanding variable-rate short- and long-term debt and future debt issuances. MidAmerican Energy and MidAmerican Funding manage interest rate risk by limiting their exposure to variable interest rates primarily through the issuance of fixed-rate long-term debt and by monitoring market changes in interest rates. As a result of the fixed interest rates, the fixed-rate long-term debt does not expose MidAmerican Energy or MidAmerican Funding to the risk of loss due to changes in market interest rates. Additionally, because fixed-rate long-term debt is not carried at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, changes in fair value would impact earnings and cash flows only if MidAmerican Energy or MidAmerican Funding were to reacquire all or a portion of these instruments prior to their maturity. MidAmerican Energy or MidAmerican Funding may from time to time enter into interest rate derivative contracts, such as interest rate swaps or locks, to mitigate their exposure to interest rate risk. The nature and amount of their short- and long-term debt can be expected to vary from period to period as a result of future business requirements, market conditions and other factors. Refer to Notes 8, 9 and 14 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-K for additional discussion of MidAmerican Energy's and MidAmerican Funding's short- and long-term debt.

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, MidAmerican Energy had short- and long-term variable-rate obligations totaling $195 million that expose MidAmerican Energy to the risk of increased interest expense in the event of increases in short-term interest rates. The market risk related to MidAmerican Energy's variable-rate debt as of December 31, 2013, is not hedged. If variable interest rates were to increase by 10% from December 31 levels, it would not have a material effect on MidAmerican Energy's annual interest expense. The carrying value of the variable-rate obligations approximates fair value as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.

53

Credit Risk

MidAmerican Energy extends unsecured credit to other utilities, energy marketing companies, financial institutions and other market participants in conjunction with its wholesale energy supply and marketing activities. Credit risk relates to the risk of loss that might occur as a result of nonperformance by counterparties on their contractual obligations to make or take delivery of electricity, natural gas or other commodities and to make financial settlements of these obligations. Credit risk may be concentrated to the extent that one or more groups of counterparties have similar economic, industry or other characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in market or other conditions. In addition, credit risk includes not only the risk that a counterparty may default due to circumstances relating directly to it, but also the risk that a counterparty may default due to circumstances involving other market participants that have a direct or indirect relationship with the counterparty.

MidAmerican Energy analyzes the financial condition of each significant wholesale counterparty before entering into any transactions, establishes limits on the amount of unsecured credit to be extended to each counterparty, and evaluates the appropriateness of unsecured credit limits on an ongoing basis. To mitigate exposure to the financial risks of wholesale counterparties, MidAmerican Energy enters into netting and collateral arrangements that may include margining and cross-product netting agreements and obtains third-party guarantees, letters of credit and cash deposits. Counterparties may be assessed fees for delayed payments. If required, MidAmerican Energy exercises rights under these arrangements, including calling on the counterparty's credit support arrangement.

During 2013, approximately 96% of MidAmerican Energy's electric wholesale sales revenue resulted from participation in RTOs, including the MISO and the PJM. MidAmerican Energy has potential indirect credit exposure to other market participants in these RTO markets. In the event of a default by a RTO market participant on its market-related obligations, losses are allocated among all other market participants in proportion to each participant's share of overall market activity during the period of time the loss was incurred, diversifying MidAmerican Energy's exposure to credit losses from individual participants. Transactional activities of MidAmerican Energy and other participants in organized RTO markets are governed by credit policies specified in each respective RTO's governing tariff or related business practices. Credit policies of RTO's, which have been developed through extensive stakeholder participation, generally seek to minimize potential loss in the event of a market participant default without unnecessarily inhibiting access to the marketplace. MidAmerican Energy's share of historical losses from defaults by other RTO market participants has not been material. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy's aggregate direct credit exposure from electric wholesale marketing counterparties was not material.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholder of

MidAmerican Energy Company

Des Moines, Iowa

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets and statements of capitalization of MidAmerican Energy Company (the "Company") as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013. Our audits also included the Company's financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a)(2). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MidAmerican Energy Company as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

MIDAMERICAN ENERGY COMPANY

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) Company Organization

MidAmerican Energy Company ("MidAmerican Energy") is a public utility with electric and natural gas operations and is the principal subsidiary of MHC Inc. ("MHC"). MHC is a holding company that conducts no business other than the ownership of its subsidiaries and related corporate services. MHC's nonregulated subsidiaries include Midwest Capital Group, Inc. and MEC Construction Services Co. MHC is the direct wholly owned subsidiary of MidAmerican Funding, LLC, ("MidAmerican Funding"), which is an Iowa limited liability company with MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company ("MEHC") as its sole member. MEHC is a consolidated subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. ("Berkshire Hathaway").

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of the Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. These estimates include, but are not limited to, the effects of regulation; certain assumptions made in accounting for pension and other postretirement benefits; asset retirement obligations ("AROs"); income taxes; unbilled revenue; valuation of certain financial assets and liabilities, including derivative contracts; and accounting for contingencies. Actual results may differ from the estimates used in preparing the Financial Statements.

Accounting for the Effects of Certain Types of Regulation

MidAmerican Energy's utility operations are subject to the regulation of the Iowa Utilities Board ("IUB"), the Illinois Commerce Commission ("ICC"), the South Dakota Public Utilities Commission, and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC"). MidAmerican Energy's accounting policies and the accompanying Financial Statements conform to GAAP applicable to rate-regulated enterprises and reflect the effects of the ratemaking process.

MidAmerican Energy prepares its financial statements in accordance with authoritative guidance for regulated operations, which recognizes the economic effects of regulation. Accordingly, MidAmerican Energy defers the recognition of certain costs or income if it is probable that, through the ratemaking process, there will be a corresponding increase or decrease in future regulated rates. Regulatory assets and liabilities are established to reflect the impacts of these deferrals, which will be recognized in earnings in the periods the corresponding changes in regulated rates occur.

MidAmerican Energy continually evaluates the applicability of the guidance for regulated operations and whether its regulatory assets and liabilities are probable of inclusion in future regulated rates by considering factors such as a change in the regulator's approach to setting rates from cost-based ratemaking to another form of regulation, other regulatory actions or the impact of competition, that could limit MidAmerican Energy's ability to recover its costs. MidAmerican Energy believes the application of the guidance for regulated operations is appropriate, and its existing regulatory assets and liabilities are probable of inclusion in future regulated rates. The evaluation reflects the current political and regulatory climate at both the federal and state levels. If it becomes no longer probable that the deferred costs or income will be included in future regulated rates, the related regulatory assets and liabilities will be written off to net income, returned to customers or re-established as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI").

Fair Value Measurements

As defined under GAAP, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability between market participants in the principal market or in the most advantageous market when no principal market exists. Adjustments to transaction prices or quoted market prices may be required in illiquid or disorderly markets in order to estimate fair value. Different valuation techniques may be appropriate under the circumstances to determine the value that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction. Market participants are assumed to be independent, knowledgeable, able and willing to transact an exchange and not under duress. Nonperformance or credit risk is considered in determining fair value. Considerable judgment may be required in interpreting market data used to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, estimates of fair value presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current or future market exchange.

Cash equivalents consist of funds invested in money market mutual funds, United States Treasury Bills and other investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. Cash and cash equivalents exclude amounts where availability is restricted by legal requirements, loan agreements or other contractual provisions. Restricted amounts are included in other current assets and investments and nonregulated property, net on the Balance Sheets.

Investments

MidAmerican Energy's management determines the appropriate classification of investments in debt and equity securities at the acquisition date and reevaluates the classification at each balance sheet date. Investments that management does not intend to use or is restricted from using in current operations are presented as noncurrent on the Balance Sheets.

Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with realized gains and losses, as determined on a specific identification basis, recognized in earnings and unrealized gains and losses recognized in AOCI, net of tax. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on securities in a trust related to the decommissioning of the Quad Cities Generating Station Units 1 and 2 ("Quad Cities Station") are recorded as a net regulatory liability because MidAmerican Energy expects to recover costs for these activities through regulated rates. Held-to-maturity securities are carried at amortized cost, reflecting the ability and intent to hold the securities to maturity.

Investments gains and losses arise when investments are sold (as determined on a specific identification basis) or are other-than-temporarily impaired. If a decline in value of an investment below cost is deemed other than temporary, the cost of the investment is written down to fair value, with a corresponding charge to earnings. Factors considered in judging whether an impairment is other than temporary include: the financial condition, business prospects and creditworthiness of the issuer; the relative amount of the decline; MidAmerican Energy's ability and intent to hold the investment until the fair value recovers; and the length of time that fair value has been less than cost. Impairment losses on equity securities are charged to earnings. With respect to an investment in a debt security, any resulting impairment loss is recognized in earnings if MidAmerican Energy intends to sell, or expects to be required to sell, the debt security before its amortized cost is recovered. If MidAmerican Energy does not expect to ultimately recover the amortized cost basis even if it does not intend to sell the security, the credit loss component is recognized in earnings and any difference between fair value and the amortized cost basis, net of the credit loss, is reflected in other comprehensive income (loss) ("OCI"). For regulated investments, any impairment charge is offset by the establishment of a regulatory asset to the extent recovery in regulated rates is probable.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Receivables are stated at the outstanding principal amount, net of an estimated allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on MidAmerican Energy's assessment of the collectibility of amounts owed to it by its customers. This assessment requires judgment regarding the ability of customers to pay or the outcome of any pending disputes. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $10 million and is included in receivables, net on the Balance Sheets.

Derivatives

MidAmerican Energy employs a number of different derivative contracts, including forwards, futures, options, swaps and other agreements, to manage price risk for electricity, natural gas and other commodities, and interest rate risk. Derivative contracts are recorded on the Balance Sheets as either assets or liabilities and are stated at estimated fair value unless they are designated as normal purchases or normal sales and qualify for the exception afforded by GAAP. Derivative balances reflect offsetting permitted under master netting agreements with counterparties and cash collateral paid or received under such agreements. Cash collateral received from or paid to counterparties to secure derivative contract assets or liabilities in excess of amounts offset is included in other current assets on the Balance Sheets.

Commodity derivatives used in normal business operations that are settled by physical delivery, among other criteria, are eligible for and may be designated as normal purchases or normal sales. Normal purchases or normal sales contracts are not marked to market, and settled amounts are recognized as operating revenue or cost of sales on the Statements of Operations.

64

For MidAmerican Energy's derivatives not designated as hedging contracts, the settled amount is generally included in regulated rates. Accordingly, the net unrealized gains and losses associated with interim price movements on contracts that are accounted for as derivatives and probable of inclusion in regulated rates are recorded as regulatory assets and liabilities. For MidAmerican Energy's derivatives not designated as hedging contracts and for which changes in fair value are not recorded as regulatory assets and liabilities, unrealized gains and losses are recognized on the Statements of Operations as nonregulated operating revenue for sales contracts and as nonregulated cost of sales for purchase contracts and electricity and natural gas swap contracts.

For MidAmerican Energy's derivatives designated as hedging contracts, MidAmerican Energy formally assesses, at inception and thereafter, whether the hedging contract is highly effective in offsetting changes in the hedged item. MidAmerican Energy formally documents hedging activity by transaction type and risk management strategy.

Changes in the estimated fair value of a derivative contract designated and qualified as a cash flow hedge, to the extent effective, are included on the Statements of Changes in Equity as AOCI, net of tax, until the contract settles and the hedged item is recognized in earnings. MidAmerican Energy discontinues hedge accounting prospectively when it has determined that a derivative contract no longer qualifies as an effective hedge, or when it is no longer probable that the hedged forecasted transaction will occur. When hedge accounting is discontinued because the derivative contract no longer qualifies as an effective hedge, future changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative contract are charged to earnings. Gains and losses related to discontinued hedges that were previously recorded in AOCI will remain in AOCI until the contract settles and the hedged item is recognized in earnings, unless it becomes probable that the hedged forecasted transaction will not occur, at which time associated deferred amounts in AOCI are immediately recognized in earnings.

Inventories

Inventories consist mainly of coal stocks, totaling $109 million and $122 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, materials and supplies, totaling $95 million and $86 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and natural gas in storage, totaling $19 million and $27 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The cost of materials and supplies, coal stocks and fuel oil is determined using the average cost method. The cost of stored natural gas is determined using the last-in-first-out method. With respect to stored natural gas, the replacement cost would be $36 million and $26 million higher as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Utility Plant, Net

General

Additions to utility plant are recorded at cost. MidAmerican Energy capitalizes all construction-related material, direct labor and contract services, as well as indirect construction costs. Indirect construction costs include debt allowance for funds used during construction ("AFUDC") and equity AFUDC. The cost of additions and betterments are capitalized, while costs incurred that do not improve or extend the useful lives of the related assets are generally expensed. Additionally, MidAmerican Energy has regulatory arrangements in Iowa in which the carrying cost of certain utility plant has been reduced for amounts associated with electric returns on equity exceeding specified thresholds.

Depreciation and amortization for MidAmerican Energy's utility operations are computed by applying the composite or straight-line method based on either estimated useful lives or mandated recovery periods as prescribed by its various regulatory authorities. Depreciation studies are completed by MidAmerican Energy to determine the appropriate group lives, net salvage and group depreciation rates. These studies are reviewed and rates are ultimately approved by the applicable regulatory commission. Net salvage includes the estimated future residual values of the assets and any estimated removal costs recovered through approved depreciation rates. Estimated removal costs are recorded as either a cost of removal regulatory liability or an ARO liability on the Balance Sheets, depending on whether the obligation meets the requirements of an ARO. As actual removal costs are incurred, the associated liability is reduced.

65

During the second quarter of 2011, MidAmerican Energy revised its electric and gas utility plant depreciation rates based on the results of a depreciation study. The new rates generally reflect longer estimated useful lives and lower net salvage. The effect of this change reduced depreciation and amortization expense by $16 million in 2011 and $28 million annually based on depreciable plant balances at the time of the change. During the third quarter of 2012, MidAmerican Energy revised its depreciation rates for certain generation facilities reflecting shorter estimated useful lives. The effect of this change increased depreciation and amortization expense by $5 million in 2012 and $11 million annually based on depreciable plant balances at the time of the change. During the third quarter of 2013, MidAmerican Energy revised its depreciation rates for certain electric generating facilities based on the results of a new depreciation study. The new rates reflect longer estimated useful lives for wind-powered generating facilities placed in service in 2011 and 2012 and a lower accrual rate for the cost of removal regulatory liability related to coal-fueled generating facilities. The effect of this change was to reduce depreciation and amortization expense by $20 million in 2013 and $49 million annually based on depreciable plant balances at the time of the change.

The average depreciation and amortization rates applied to depreciable utility plant for the years ended December 31 were as follows:

	2013		2012		2011
Electric	3.3	%	3.3	%	3.2	%
Gas	2.8	%	2.8	%	2.9	%

Generally, when MidAmerican Energy retires or sells a component of utility plant, it charges the original cost, net of any proceeds from the disposition to accumulated depreciation. Any gain or loss on disposals of nonregulated assets is recorded through earnings.

Debt and equity AFUDC, which represent the estimated costs of debt and equity funds necessary to finance the construction of its regulated facilities, is capitalized by MidAmerican Energy as a component of utility plant, with offsetting credits to the Statements of Operations. AFUDC is computed based on guidelines set forth by the FERC. After construction is completed, MidAmerican Energy is permitted to earn a return on these costs as a component of the related assets, as well as recover these costs through depreciation expense over the useful lives of the related assets.

Asset Retirement Obligations

MidAmerican Energy recognizes AROs when it has a legal obligation to perform decommissioning or removal activities upon retirement of an asset. MidAmerican Energy's AROs are primarily related to decommissioning of the Quad Cities Station and obligations associated with its other generating facilities. The fair value of an ARO liability is recognized in the period in which it is incurred, if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made, and is added to the carrying amount of the associated asset, which is then depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset. Subsequent to the initial recognition, the ARO liability is adjusted for any revisions to the original estimate of undiscounted cash flows (with corresponding adjustments to utility plant) and for accretion of the ARO liability due to the passage of time. The difference between the ARO liability, the corresponding ARO asset included in utility plant, net and amounts recovered in rates to satisfy such liabilities is recorded as a regulatory asset or liability.

Impairment

MidAmerican Energy evaluates long-lived assets for impairment, including utility plant, when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable or the assets are being held for sale. Upon the occurrence of a triggering event, the asset is reviewed to assess whether the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected from the use of the asset plus the residual value from the ultimate disposal exceeds the carrying value of the asset. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated recoverable amounts, the asset is written down to the estimated fair value. The impacts of regulation are considered when evaluating the carrying value of regulated assets. For all other assets, any resulting impairment loss is reflected on the Statements of Operations.

66

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from electric and natural gas customers is recognized as electricity or natural gas is delivered or services are provided. Revenue recognized includes billed and unbilled amounts. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, unbilled revenue was $145 million and $135 million, respectively, and is included in receivables, net on the Balance Sheets.

The determination of revenue from an individual customer is based on a systematic reading of meters and rates. At the end of each month, amounts of energy provided to customers since the date of the last meter reading are estimated, and the corresponding unbilled revenue is recorded. Factors that can impact the estimate of unbilled energy include, but are not limited to, seasonal weather patterns compared to normal, total volumes supplied to the system, line losses, economic impacts and composition of customer classes. Estimates are reversed in the following month and actual revenue is recorded based on subsequent meter readings.

All of MidAmerican Energy's regulated retail gas sales are subject to energy adjustment clauses. MidAmerican Energy also has costs that are recovered, at least in part, through bill riders, including demand-side management costs. The clauses and riders allow MidAmerican Energy to adjust the amounts charged for electric and gas service as the related costs change. The costs recovered in revenue through use of the adjustment clauses and bill riders is charged to expense in the same period the related revenue is recognized. At any given time, these costs may be over or under collected from customers. The total under collection included in receivables at December 31, 2013 and 2012, was $49 million and $54 million, respectively.

Sales and Excise Tax

MidAmerican Energy collects from its customers sales and excise taxes assessed by governmental authorities on transactions with customers and later remits the collected taxes to the appropriate authority. If the obligation to pay a particular tax resides with the customer, MidAmerican Energy reports such taxes collected on a net basis and, accordingly, they do not affect the Statement of Operations. Taxes for which the obligation resides with MidAmerican Energy are reported on a gross basis in operating revenue and operating expenses. The amounts reported on a gross basis are not material.

Unamortized Debt Premiums, Discounts and Financing Costs

Premiums, discounts and financing costs incurred for the issuance of long-term debt are amortized over the term of the related financing using the effective interest method.

Income Taxes

MidAmerican Funding's and MidAmerican Energy's provisions for income taxes have been computed on a stand-alone basis, and substantially all of their respective currently payable or receivable income taxes are remitted to or received from MEHC.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are based on differences between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using estimated income tax rates expected to be in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Changes in deferred income tax assets and liabilities that are associated with components of OCI are charged or credited directly to OCI. Changes in deferred income tax assets and liabilities that are associated with income tax benefits and expense for certain property-related basis differences and other various differences that MidAmerican Energy is required to pass on to its customers in Iowa are charged or credited directly to a regulatory asset or liability. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, these amounts were recognized as a net regulatory asset totaling $649 million and $640 million, respectively, and will be included in regulated rates when the temporary differences reverse. Other changes in deferred income tax assets and liabilities are included as a component of income tax expense. Changes in deferred income tax assets and liabilities attributable to changes in enacted income tax rates are charged or credited to income tax expense or a regulatory asset or liability in the period of enactment. Investment tax credits are generally deferred and amortized over the estimated useful lives of the related properties or as prescribed by various regulatory jurisdictions.

67

In determining MidAmerican Funding's and MidAmerican Energy's income taxes, management is required to interpret complex income tax laws and regulations, which includes consideration of regulatory implications imposed by MidAmerican Energy's various regulatory jurisdictions. MidAmerican Funding's and MidAmerican Energy's income tax returns are subject to continuous examinations by federal, state and local tax authorities that may give rise to different interpretations of these complex laws and regulations. Due to the nature of the examination process, it generally takes years before these examinations are completed and these matters are resolved. MidAmerican Funding and MidAmerican Energy recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more-likely-than-not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that is more-likely-than-not of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Although the ultimate resolution of their federal, state and local income tax examinations is uncertain, each company believes it has made adequate provisions for its income tax positions. The aggregate amount of any additional income tax liabilities that may result from these examinations, if any, is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial results. MidAmerican Funding's and MidAmerican Energy's unrecognized tax benefits are primarily included in taxes accrued and other long-term liabilities on their respective Consolidated Balance Sheets. Estimated interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions are included as a component of income tax expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-04, which amends FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 405, "Liabilities." The amendments in this guidance require an entity to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation is fixed at the reporting date as the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay plus any additional amounts the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligor. Additionally, the guidance requires the entity to disclose the nature and amount of the obligation, as well as other information about those obligations. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. MidAmerican Energy adopted this guidance on January 1, 2014. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on MidAmerican Energy's disclosures included within Notes to Financial Statements.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013‑02, which amends FASB ASC Topic 220, "Comprehensive Income." The amendments in this guidance require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of AOCI by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the financial statements or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of AOCI by the respective line items of net income if the amount reclassified is required under GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required by GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. MidAmerican Energy adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on MidAmerican Energy's disclosures included within Notes to Financial Statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011‑11, which amends FASB ASC Topic 210, "Balance Sheet." The amendments in this guidance require an entity to provide quantitative disclosures about offsetting financial instruments and derivative instruments. Additionally, this guidance requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures about master netting agreements or similar agreements when the financial instruments and derivative instruments are not offset. In January 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013‑01, which also amends FASB ASC Topic 210 to clarify that the scope of ASU No. 2011‑11 only applies to derivative instruments, repurchase agreements, reverse purchase agreements and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either being offset or are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. MidAmerican Energy adopted the guidance on January 1, 2013. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on its disclosures included within Notes to Financial Statements.

(3)Jointly Owned Utility Facilities

Under joint facility ownership agreements with other utilities, MidAmerican Energy, as a tenant in common, has undivided interests in jointly owned generation and transmission facilities. MidAmerican Energy accounts for its proportionate share of each facility, and each joint owner has provided financing for its share of each facility. Operating costs of each facility are assigned to joint owners based on their percentage of ownership or energy production, depending on the nature of the cost. Operating costs and expenses on the Statements of Operations include MidAmerican Energy's share of the expenses of these facilities.

MidAmerican Energy has established a trust for the investment of funds for decommissioning the Quad Cities Station. These investments in debt and equity securities are classified as available-for-sale and are reported at fair value. Funds are invested in the trust in accordance with applicable federal and state investment guidelines and are restricted for use as reimbursement for costs of decommissioning the Quad Cities Station, which is currently licensed for operation until December 2032. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the fair value of the trust's funds was invested as follows: 54% and 56%, respectively, in domestic common equity securities, 34% and 31%, respectively, in United States government securities, 9% and 10%, respectively, in domestic corporate debt securities and 3% and 3%, respectively, in other securities.

Rabbi trusts primarily hold corporate-owned life insurance on certain current and former key executives and directors. The Rabbi trusts were established to hold investments used to fund the obligations of various nonqualified executive and director compensation plans and to pay the costs of the trusts. The amount represents the cash surrender value of all of the policies included in the Rabbi trusts, net of amounts borrowed against the cash surrender value. Changes in the cash surrender value of the policies are reflected in non-operating income - other, net on the Statements of Operation.

MidAmerican Energy has investments in interest bearing auction rate securities with a par value of $35 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and remaining maturities of 4 to 22 years. MidAmerican Energy considers the securities to be temporarily impaired, except for an other-than-temporary impairment of $3 million, after-tax, recorded in 2008, and has recorded unrealized losses on the securities of $4 million and $5 million, after tax, in AOCI as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. MidAmerican Energy does not intend to sell or expect to be required to sell the securities until the remaining principal investment is collected.

Nonregulated property includes computer software, land and other assets not recoverable for regulated utility purposes. Depreciable property consists primarily of computer software, which is amortized on a straight-line basis over five years.

(6) Components of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss, Net

The following table shows the change in accumulated other comprehensive loss by each component of other comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes, for the year ended December 31, 2013 (in millions):

	Unrealized			Unrealized			Accumulated
	Losses on			Losses on			Other
	Available-For-Sale			Cash Flow			Comprehensive
	Securities			Hedges			Loss, Net
Balance, December 31, 2012	$	(5	)	$	(19	)	$	(24	)
Other comprehensive income	1			12			13
Balance, December 31, 2013	$	(4	)	$	(7	)	$	(11	)

Reclassifications from AOCI to net income for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, were net losses reflected in nonregulated cost of sales totaling $10 million, $38 million and $18 million, respectively.

(7) Preferred Securities

In April 2013, MidAmerican Energy redeemed and canceled all outstanding shares of each series of its preferred securities at the stated redemption prices, which in aggregate totaled $28 million including accrued dividends.

(8) Long-Term Debt

The annual repayments of MidAmerican Energy's long-term debt for the years beginning January 1, 2014, and thereafter, excluding unamortized discounts, are as follows (in millions):

2014	$	350
2015	426
2016	34
2017	254
2018	350
2019 and thereafter	2,157

Refer to MidAmerican Energy's Statements of Capitalization for detail of long-term debt.

In conjunction with the construction of wind-powered generating facilities in 2012, MidAmerican Energy has accrued in gross utility plant in service amounts for turbine purchases it is not contractually obligated to pay until December 2015. The amount ultimately payable was discounted and recognized upon delivery of the equipment as long-term debt. The discount is being amortized as interest expense over the period until payment is due using the effective interest method. The amount ultimately payable is reflected as a turbine purchase obligation with the applicable discount rate on the Statements of Capitalization.

MidAmerican Energy's $950 million of first mortgage bonds were issued in September 2013 pursuant to its indenture dated September 9, 2013, as supplemented and amended. The net proceeds were used for the repayment of $669 million of long-term debt that matured December 31, 2013, and for general corporate purposes.

Pursuant to MidAmerican Energy's mortgage dated September 9, 2013, MidAmerican Energy's first mortgage bonds, currently and from time to time outstanding, are secured by a first mortgage lien on substantially all of its electric generating, transmission and distribution property within the State of Iowa, subject to certain exceptions and permitted encumbrances. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy's eligible property subject to the lien of the mortgage totaled approximately $11 billion based on original cost. Additionally, MidAmerican Energy's senior notes outstanding are equally and ratably secured with the first mortgage bonds as required by the indentures under which the senior notes were issued.

71

MidAmerican Energy's variable rate tax-exempt obligations, including the tax-exempt bonds discussed below, bear interest at rates that are periodically established through remarketing of the bonds in the short-term tax-exempt market. MidAmerican Energy, at its option, may change the mode of interest calculation for these bonds by selecting from among several floating or fixed rate alternatives. The interest rates shown on the Statements of Capitalization are the weighted average interest rates as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. MidAmerican Energy maintains revolving credit facility agreements to provide liquidity for holders of these issues.

As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy was in compliance with all of its applicable long-term debt covenants.

In March 1999, MidAmerican Energy committed to the IUB to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain an investment grade rating on its long-term debt and to maintain its common equity level above 42% of total capitalization unless circumstances beyond its control result in the common equity level decreasing to below 39% of total capitalization. MidAmerican Energy must seek the approval from the IUB of a reasonable utility capital structure if MidAmerican Energy's common equity level decreases below 42% of total capitalization, unless the decrease is beyond the control of MidAmerican Energy. MidAmerican Energy is also required to seek the approval of the IUB if MidAmerican Energy's equity level decreases to below 39%, even if the decrease is due to circumstances beyond the control of MidAmerican Energy. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy's common equity ratio was 51% computed on a basis consistent with its commitment. As a result of its regulatory commitment to maintain its common equity level above certain thresholds, MidAmerican Energy could dividend $1.3 billion as of December 31, 2013, without falling below 42%.

(9)Short-Term Debt and Revolving Credit Facilities

Interim financing of working capital needs and the construction program is obtained from unaffiliated parties through the sale of commercial paper or short-term borrowing from banks. In March 2013, MidAmerican Energy replaced its $530 million unsecured revolving credit facility, which had been set to expire in July 2013, with a $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility expiring in March 2018. The new credit facility, which supports MidAmerican Energy's commercial paper program and its variable-rate tax-exempt bond obligations and provides for the issuance of letters of credit, has a variable interest rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or a base rate, at MidAmerican Energy's option, plus a spread that varies based on MidAmerican Energy's credit ratings for senior unsecured long-term debt securities. In addition, MidAmerican Energy has a $5 million unsecured credit facility, which expires in June 2014 and has a variable interest rate based on LIBOR plus a spread. The $600 million credit facility requires that MidAmerican Energy's ratio of consolidated debt, including current maturities, to total capitalization not exceed 0.65 to 1.0 as of the last day of any quarter. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy was in compliance with the covenants of its credit facilities. MidAmerican Energy has authority from the FERC to issue commercial paper and bank notes aggregating $600 million through October 30, 2014.

The following table summarizes MidAmerican Energy's availability under its two unsecured revolving credit facilities as of December 31 (in millions):

	2013			2012
Revolving credit facilities	$	605		$	535
Less:
Variable-rate tax-exempt bond support	(195		)	(195		)
Net revolving credit facilities	$	410		$	340

(10) Income Taxes

MidAmerican Energy's income tax benefit consists of the following for the years ended December 31 (in millions):

	2013			2012			2011
Current:
Federal	$	(196	)	$	(256	)	$	(474	)
State	(10		)	(21		)	(6		)
	(206		)	(277		)	(480		)

Investment tax credits	(1		)	(2		)	(1		)
Total	$	(103	)	$	(99	)	$	(17	)

A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate to MidAmerican Energy's effective income tax rate applicable to income before income tax benefit is as follows for the years ended December 31:

	2013		2012		2011
Federal statutory income tax rate	35	%	35	%	35	%
Income tax credits	(70	)	(56	)	(32	)
State income tax, net of federal income tax benefit	(2	)	(10	)	1
Income tax method changes	—		(6	)	(10	)
Effects of ratemaking	(3	)	—		—
Other, net	(2	)	(2	)	—
Effective income tax rate	(42	)%	(39	)%	(6	)%

Income tax credits relate primarily to production tax credits earned by MidAmerican Energy's wind-powered generating facilities. Federal renewable electricity production tax credits are earned as energy from qualifying wind-powered generating facilities is produced and sold and are based on a per-kilowatt hour rate pursuant to the applicable federal income tax law. Wind-powered generating facilities are eligible for the credits for 10 years from the date the qualifying generating facilities are placed in service.

MidAmerican Energy's income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2012, reflects $16 million of federal income tax benefits recognized in connection with an income tax method change for income tax years prior to 2012 related to repair costs for its regulated utility electric transmission and distribution assets based on guidance published by the Internal Revenue Service. MidAmerican Energy's income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2011, reflects $35 million of federal income tax benefits in conjunction with the partial resolution of certain tax issues related to tax positions taken for income tax method changes in 2009 and 2010 associated with the determination of current income tax deductions for repair costs and administrative and general costs related to certain of MidAmerican Energy's regulated utility assets.

The income tax method changes result in current deductibility for applicable repair and administrative and general costs, which are capitalized for book purposes. MidAmerican Energy retroactively applied the method changes and deducted amounts related to prior years' costs on the tax return that includes the year of change. State utility rate regulation in Iowa requires that the tax effect of certain temporary differences be flowed through immediately to customers. Therefore, certain deferred amounts that would otherwise have been recognized in income tax expense have been included as changes in regulatory assets in recognition of MidAmerican Energy's ability to recover increased tax expense when such temporary differences reverse. This treatment of such temporary differences impacts income tax expense and effective income tax rates from year to year.

As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy has available $20 million of state carryforwards, principally related to $426 million of net operating losses, that expire at various intervals between 2014 and 2032.

The United States Internal Revenue Service has effectively settled its examination of MEHC's income tax returns through December 2009, including components related to MidAmerican Energy. In addition, state jurisdictions have closed their examinations of MidAmerican Energy's income tax returns through at least February 9, 2006, including Iowa and Illinois, which are closed through December 31, 2012, and December 31, 2008, respectively.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of MidAmerican Energy's net unrecognized tax benefits is as follows for the years ended December 31 (in millions):

	2013			2012
Beginning balance	$	36		$	46
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year	10			10
Additions for tax positions of prior years	3			25
Reductions based on tax positions related to the current year	(10		)	(16		)

Statute of limitations	(2		)	(3		)
Settlements	—			(2		)
Interest and penalties	—			(1		)
Ending balance	$	29		$	36

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, substantially all of MidAmerican Energy's unrecognized tax benefits of $29 million and $36 million, respectively, if recognized, would have an impact on the effective tax rate. The unrecognized tax benefits relate to tax positions for which ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty as to the timing of such deductibility.

(11) Employee Benefit Plans

MidAmerican Energy sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering a majority of all employees of MEHC and its domestic energy subsidiaries other than PacifiCorp and NV Energy, Inc. Benefit obligations under the plan are based on a cash balance arrangement for salaried employees and certain union employees and final average pay formulas for other union employees. MidAmerican Energy also maintains noncontributory, nonqualified defined benefit supplemental executive retirement plans ("SERP") for certain active and retired participants.

MidAmerican Energy also sponsors certain postretirement healthcare and life insurance benefits covering substantially all retired employees of MEHC and its domestic energy subsidiaries other than PacifiCorp and NV Energy, Inc. Under the plans, a majority of all employees of the participating companies may become eligible for these benefits if they reach retirement age. New employees are not eligible for benefits under the plans. MidAmerican Energy has been allowed to recover accrued pension and other postretirement benefit costs in its electric and gas service rates.

Net Periodic Benefit Cost

For purposes of calculating the expected return on pension plan assets, a market-related value is used. The market-related value of plan assets is calculated by spreading the difference between expected and actual investment returns on equity investments over a five-year period beginning after the first year in which they occur.

MidAmerican Energy bills to and is reimbursed currently for affiliates' share of the net periodic benefit costs from all plans in which such affiliates participate. In 2013, 2012 and 2011, MidAmerican Energy's share of the pension net periodic benefit cost was $11 million, $8 million and $9 million, respectively. MidAmerican Energy's share of the other postretirement net periodic benefit cost (benefit) in 2013, 2012 and 2011 totaled $(1) million, $(2) million and $- million, respectively.

Net periodic benefit cost for the plans of MidAmerican Energy and the aforementioned affiliates included the following components for the years ended December 31 (in millions):

	Pension									Other Postretirement

MidAmerican Energy sponsors pension and other postretirement benefit plans on behalf of certain of its affiliates in addition to itself, and therefore, the portion of the funded status of the respective plans that has not yet been recognized in net periodic benefit cost is attributable to multiple entities. Additionally, substantially all of MidAmerican Energy's portion of such amounts is either refundable to or recoverable from its customers and is reflected as regulatory liabilities and regulatory assets.

The SERP has no plan assets; however, MidAmerican Energy and MEHC have Rabbi trusts that hold corporate-owned life insurance and other investments to provide funding for the future cash requirements of the SERP. The cash surrender value of all of the policies included in the Rabbi trusts, net of amounts borrowed against the cash surrender value, plus the fair market value of other Rabbi trust investments, was $149 million and $136 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, of which $98 million and $94 million was held by MidAmerican Energy as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, with the remainder held by MEHC. These assets are not included in the plan assets in the above table, but are reflected in investments and nonregulated property, net on the Balance Sheets.

Unrecognized Amounts

Plan Assumptions

Assumptions used to determine benefit obligations and net periodic benefit cost were as follows:

	Pension						Other Postretirement
	2013		2012		2011		2013		2012		2011
Benefit obligations as of December 31:
Discount rate	4.75	%	4.00	%	4.75	%	4.50	%	3.75	%	4.75	%
Rate of compensation increase	3.00	%	3.00	%	3.50	%	N/A		N/A		N/A
Net periodic benefit cost for the years ended December 31:
Discount rate	4.00	%	4.75	%	5.50	%	3.75	%	4.75	%	5.50	%
Expected return on plan assets(1)	7.50	%	7.50	%	7.50	%	7.25	%	7.50	%	7.50	%
Rate of compensation increase	3.00	%	3.50	%	3.50	%	N/A		N/A		N/A

(1) Amounts reflected are pre-tax values. Assumed after-tax returns for a taxable, non-union other postretirement plan were 5.56% for 2013, and 5.75% for 2012 and 2011.

	2013		2012
Assumed healthcare cost trend rates as of December 31:
Healthcare cost trend rate assumed for next year	8.00	%	8.00	%
Rate that the cost trend rate gradually declines to	5.00	%	5.00	%
Year that the rate reaches the rate it is assumed to remain at	2019		2018

In establishing its assumption as to the expected return on plan assets, MidAmerican Energy utilizes the expected asset allocation and return assumptions for each asset class based on historical performance and forward-looking views of the financial markets.

A one percentage-point change in assumed healthcare cost trend rates would have the following effects (in millions):

Other postretirement benefit obligation	5		(4		)

Contributions and Benefit Payments

Employer contributions to the pension and other postretirement benefit plans are expected to be $8 million and $1 million, respectively, during 2014. Funding to MidAmerican Energy's pension benefit plan trust is based upon the actuarially determined costs of the plan and the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and the Pension Protection Act of 2006, as amended. MidAmerican Energy considers contributing additional amounts from time to time in order to achieve certain funding levels specified under the Pension Protection Act of 2006, as amended. MidAmerican Energy's funding policy for its other postretirement benefit plan is to generally contribute an amount equal to the net periodic benefit cost. The amounts and timing of these contributions may be impacted by United States Internal Revenue Service deductibility and funding limits.

78

Net periodic benefit costs assigned to MidAmerican Energy affiliates are reimbursed currently in accordance with its intercompany administrative services agreement. The expected benefit payments to participants in MidAmerican Energy's pension and other postretirement benefit plans for 2014 through 2018 and for the five years thereafter are summarized below (in millions):

	Projected Benefit Payments
	Pension		Other Postretirement
2014	$	56	$	16
2015	56		17
2016	58		18
2017	60		20
2018	60		21
2019-2023	307		108

Plan Assets

Investment Policy and Asset Allocations

MidAmerican Energy's investment policy for its pension and other postretirement benefit plans is to balance risk and return through a diversified portfolio of debt securities, equity securities and other alternative investments. Maturities for debt securities are managed to targets consistent with prudent risk tolerances. The plans retain outside investment advisors to manage plan investments within the parameters outlined by the MidAmerican Energy Pension and Employee Benefits Plans Administrative Committee. The investment portfolio is managed in line with the investment policy with sufficient liquidity to meet near-term benefit payments. The return on assets assumption for each plan is based on a weighted-average of the expected historical performance for the types of assets in which the plans invest.

The target allocations (percentage of plan assets) for MidAmerican Energy's pension and other postretirement benefit plan assets are as follows as of December 31, 2013:

	Pension	Other Postretirement
	%	%
Debt securities(1)	20-40	25-45
Equity securities(1)	60-80	50-80
Real estate funds	2-8	—
Other	0-5	0-5

(1) For purposes of target allocation percentages and consistent with the plans' investment policy, investment funds are allocated based on the underlying investments in debt and equity securities.

These funds consist of equity and debt securities of approximately 86% and 14%, respectively, for 2013 and 86% and 14%, respectively, for 2012. Additionally, these funds are invested in United States and international securities of approximately 43% and 57%, respectively, for 2013 and 51% and 49%, respectively, for 2012.

When available, a readily observable quoted market price or net asset value of an identical security in an active market is used to record the fair value. In the absence of a quoted market price or net asset value of an identical security, the fair value is determined using pricing models or net asset values based on observable market inputs and quoted market prices of securities with similar characteristics. When observable market data is not available, the fair value is determined using unobservable inputs, such as estimated future cash flows, purchase multiples paid in other comparable third-party transactions or other information. The real estate funds determine fair value of their underlying assets using independent appraisals given there is no current liquid market for the underlying assets. The following table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of MidAmerican Energy's pension plan assets measured at fair value using significant Level 3 inputs for the years ended December 31, (in millions):

MidAmerican Energy sponsors a defined contribution plan ("401(k) plan") covering substantially all employees. MidAmerican Energy's contributions are based primarily on each participant's level of contribution and cannot exceed the maximum allowable for tax purposes. MidAmerican Energy's contributions to the plan were $17 million, $16 million, and $15 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. As previously described, certain participants now receive enhanced benefits in the 401(k) plan and no longer accrue benefits in the noncontributory defined benefit pension plans.

(12) Asset Retirement Obligations

MidAmerican Energy estimates its ARO liabilities based upon detailed engineering calculations of the amount and timing of the future cash spending for a third party to perform the required work. Spending estimates are escalated for inflation and then discounted at a credit-adjusted, risk-free rate. Changes in estimates could occur for a number of reasons, including plan revisions, inflation and changes in the amount and timing of the expected work.

MidAmerican Energy does not recognize liabilities for AROs for which the fair value cannot be reasonably estimated. Due to the indeterminate removal date, the fair value of the associated liabilities on certain transmission, distribution and other assets cannot currently be estimated, and no amounts are recognized on the Financial Statements other than those included in the cost of removal regulatory liability established via approved depreciation rates in accordance with accepted regulatory practices. These accruals totaled $649 million and $629 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The following table presents MidAmerican Energy's ARO liabilities by asset type as of December 31, (in millions):

	2013		2012
Quad Cities Station	$	254	$	243
Fossil-fueled generating facilities	127		24
Wind-powered generating facilities	45		48
Other	4		3
Total asset retirement obligations	$	430	$	318
Quad Cities Station nuclear decommissioning trust funds(1)	$	394	$	337

(1) Refer to Note 5 for a discussion of the Quad Cities Station nuclear decommissioning trust funds.

The following table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of MidAmerican Energy's ARO liabilities for the years ended December 31, (in millions):

	2013		2012

Change in estimated costs	88		—
Additions	5		10
Retirements	—		(1		)
Accretion	19		16
Ending balance	$	430	$	318

The 2013 change in estimated costs is primarily due to an increase of $98 million in ARO liabilities as a result of changes in the amount and timing of cash flows for ash pond closures at certain MidAmerican Energy fossil-fueled generating facilities.

(13)Risk Management and Hedging Activities

MidAmerican Energy is exposed to the impact of market fluctuations in commodity prices and interest rates. MidAmerican Energy is principally exposed to electricity, natural gas, coal and fuel oil commodity price risk as it has an obligation to serve retail customer load in its regulated service territory. MidAmerican Energy also provides nonregulated retail electricity and natural gas services in competitive markets. MidAmerican Energy's load and generating facilities represent substantial underlying commodity positions. Exposures to commodity prices consist mainly of variations in the price of fuel required to generate electricity, wholesale electricity that is purchased and sold, and natural gas supply for retail customers. Commodity prices are subject to wide price swings as supply and demand are impacted by, among many other unpredictable items, weather; market liquidity; generating facility availability; customer usage; storage; and transmission and transportation constraints. Interest rate risk exists on variable-rate debt and future debt issuances. MidAmerican Energy does not engage in a material amount of proprietary trading activities.

MidAmerican Energy has established a risk management process that is designed to identify, assess, monitor, report, manage and mitigate each of the various types of risk involved in its business. To mitigate a portion of its commodity price risk, MidAmerican Energy uses commodity derivative contracts, which may include forwards, futures, options, swaps and other agreements, to effectively secure future supply or sell future production generally at fixed prices. MidAmerican Energy manages its interest rate risk by limiting its exposure to variable interest rates primarily through the issuance of fixed-rate long-term debt and by monitoring market changes in interest rates. Additionally, MidAmerican Energy may from time to time enter into interest rate derivative contracts, such as interest rate swaps or locks, to mitigate its exposure to interest rate risk. MidAmerican Energy does not hedge all of its commodity price and interest rate risks, thereby exposing the unhedged portion to changes in market prices.

There have been no significant changes in MidAmerican Energy's accounting policies related to derivatives. Refer to Notes 2 and 14 for additional information on derivative contracts.

83

Realized gains and losses on hedges and hedge ineffectiveness are recognized in income as nonregulated operating revenue or nonregulated cost of sales depending upon the nature of the item being hedged. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, hedge ineffectiveness was insignificant. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy had cash flow hedges with expiration dates extending through December 2017, and $4 million of pre-tax net unrealized losses are forecasted to be reclassified from AOCI into earnings over the next twelve months as contracts settle.

Credit Risk

MidAmerican Energy extends unsecured credit to other utilities, energy marketing companies, financial institutions and other market participants in conjunction with its wholesale energy supply and marketing activities. Credit risk relates to the risk of loss that might occur as a result of nonperformance by counterparties on their contractual obligations to make or take delivery of electricity, natural gas or other commodities and to make financial settlements of these obligations. Credit risk may be concentrated to the extent that one or more groups of counterparties have similar economic, industry or other characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in market or other conditions. In addition, credit risk includes not only the risk that a counterparty may default due to circumstances relating directly to it, but also the risk that a counterparty may default due to circumstances involving other market participants that have a direct or indirect relationship with the counterparty.

MidAmerican Energy analyzes the financial condition of each significant wholesale counterparty before entering into any transactions, establishes limits on the amount of unsecured credit to be extended to each counterparty and evaluates the appropriateness of unsecured credit limits on an ongoing basis. To mitigate exposure to the financial risks of wholesale counterparties, MidAmerican Energy enters into netting and collateral arrangements that may include margining and cross-product netting agreements and obtains third-party guarantees, letters of credit and cash deposits. Counterparties may be assessed fees for delayed payments. If required, MidAmerican Energy exercises rights under these arrangements, including calling on the counterparty's credit support arrangement.

MidAmerican Energy also has potential indirect credit exposure to other market participants in the regional transmission organization ("RTO") markets where it actively participates, including the Midcontinent Independent System Operator, Inc. and the PJM Interconnection, L.L.C. In the event of a default by a RTO market participant on its market-related obligations, losses are allocated among all other market participants in proportion to each participant's share of overall market activity during the period of time the loss was incurred, diversifying MidAmerican Energy's exposure to credit losses from individual participants. Transactional activities of MidAmerican Energy and other participants in organized RTO markets are governed by credit policies specified in each respective RTO's governing tariff or related business practices. Credit policies of RTO's, which have been developed through extensive stakeholder participation, generally seek to minimize potential loss in the event of a market participant default without unnecessarily inhibiting access to the marketplace. MidAmerican Energy's share of historical losses from defaults by other RTO market participants has not been material.

Collateral and Contingent Features

In accordance with industry practice, certain wholesale derivative contracts contain credit support provisions that in part base MidAmerican Energy's collateral requirements on its credit ratings for senior unsecured debt as reported by one or more of the three recognized credit rating agencies. These derivative contracts may either specifically provide bilateral rights to demand cash or other security if credit exposures on a net basis exceed specified rating-dependent threshold levels ("credit-risk-related contingent features") or provide the right for counterparties to demand "adequate assurance," or in some cases terminate the contract, in the event of a material adverse change in MidAmerican Energy's creditworthiness. These rights can vary by contract and by counterparty. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Energy's credit ratings from the three recognized credit rating agencies were investment grade.

86

The aggregate fair value of MidAmerican Energy's derivative contracts in liability positions with specific credit-risk-related contingent features totaled $35 million and $84 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, for which MidAmerican Energy had posted collateral of $- million. If all credit-risk-related contingent features for derivative contracts in liability positions had been triggered as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, MidAmerican Energy would have been required to post $24 million and $72 million, respectively, of additional collateral. MidAmerican Energy's collateral requirements could fluctuate considerably due to market price volatility, changes in credit ratings, changes in legislation or regulation, or other factors.

(14) Fair Value Measurements

The carrying value of MidAmerican Energy's cash, certain cash equivalents, receivables, payables, accrued liabilities and short-term borrowings approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. MidAmerican Energy has various financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on the Financial Statements using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. A financial asset or liability classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are as follows:

• Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that MidAmerican Energy has the ability to access at the measurement date.

• Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

• Level 3 - Unobservable inputs reflect MidAmerican Energy's judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability since limited market data exists. MidAmerican Energy develops these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data.

87

The following table presents MidAmerican Energy's assets and liabilities recognized on the Balance Sheets and measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in millions):

(2) Amounts are included in cash and cash equivalents and investments and nonregulated property, net on the Balance Sheets. The fair value of these money market mutual funds approximates cost.

88

Derivative contracts are recorded on the Balance Sheets as either assets or liabilities and are stated at estimated fair value unless they are designated as normal purchases or normal sales and qualify for the exception afforded by GAAP. When available, the fair value of derivative contracts is estimated using unadjusted quoted prices for identical contracts in the market in which MidAmerican Energy transacts. When quoted prices for identical contracts are not available, MidAmerican Energy uses forward price curves. Forward price curves represent MidAmerican Energy's estimates of the prices at which a buyer or seller could contract today for delivery or settlement at future dates. MidAmerican Energy bases its forward price curves upon market price quotations, when available, or internally developed and commercial models, with internal and external fundamental data inputs. Market price quotations are obtained from independent energy brokers, exchanges, direct communication with market participants and actual transactions executed by MidAmerican Energy. Market price quotations are generally readily obtainable for the applicable term of MidAmerican Energy's outstanding derivative contracts; therefore, MidAmerican Energy's forward price curves reflect observable market quotes. Market price quotations for certain electricity and natural gas trading hubs are not as readily obtainable due to the length of the contract. Given that limited market data exists for these contracts, as well as for those contracts that are not actively traded, MidAmerican Energy uses forward price curves derived from internal models based on perceived pricing relationships to major trading hubs that are based on unobservable inputs. The estimated fair value of these derivative contracts is a function of underlying forward commodity prices, interest rates, related volatility, counterparty creditworthiness and duration of contracts. Refer to Note 13 for further discussion regarding MidAmerican Energy's risk management and hedging activities.

MidAmerican Energy's investments in money market mutual funds and debt and equity securities are accounted for as available-for-sale securities and are stated at fair value. When available, a readily observable quoted market price or net asset value of an identical security in an active market is used to record the fair value. In the absence of a quoted market price or net asset value of an identical security, the fair value is determined using pricing models or net asset values based on observable market inputs and quoted market prices of securities with similar characteristics. The fair value of MidAmerican Energy's investments in auction rate securities, where there is no current liquid market, is determined using pricing models based on available observable market data and MidAmerican Energy's judgment about the assumptions, including liquidity and nonperformance risks, which market participants would use when pricing the asset.

The following table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of MidAmerican Energy's assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant Level 3 inputs for the years ended December 31 (in millions):

Net unrealized (losses) gains included in earnings for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, related to commodity derivatives held at December 31, 2013 , 2012 and 2011, totaled $(5) million, $- million and $15 million, respectively.

89

MidAmerican Energy's long-term debt is carried at cost on the Financial Statements. The fair value of MidAmerican Energy's long-term debt is a Level 2 fair value measurement and has been estimated based upon quoted market prices, where available, or at the present value of future cash flows discounted at rates consistent with comparable maturities with similar credit risks. The carrying value of MidAmerican Energy's variable-rate long-term debt approximates fair value because of the frequent repricing of these instruments at market rates. The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of MidAmerican Energy's long-term debt as of December 31, (in millions):

	2013				2012

(19) Segment Information

MidAmerican Energy has identified three reportable operating segments: regulated electric, regulated gas and nonregulated energy. The regulated electric segment derives most of its revenue from regulated retail sales of electricity to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and from wholesale sales. The regulated gas segment derives most of its revenue from regulated retail sales of natural gas to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and also obtains revenue by transporting gas owned by others through its distribution system. Pricing for regulated electric and regulated gas sales are established separately by regulatory agencies; therefore, management also reviews each segment separately to make decisions regarding allocation of resources and in evaluating performance. The nonregulated energy segment derives most of its revenue from nonregulated retail electric and gas activities. Common operating costs, interest income, interest expense and income tax expense are allocated to each segment based on certain factors, which primarily relate to the nature of the cost. Refer to Note 10 for a discussion of income tax method changes and related items affecting income tax (benefit) expense for the regulated electric and gas operating segments.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Managers and Member of

MidAmerican Funding, LLC

Des Moines, Iowa

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of capitalization of MidAmerican Funding, LLC and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013. Our audits also included the Company's financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 15(a)(2). These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MidAmerican Funding, LLC and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

MIDAMERICAN FUNDING, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) Company Organization

MidAmerican Funding, LLC ("MidAmerican Funding") is an Iowa limited liability company with MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company ("MEHC") as its sole member. MEHC is a consolidated subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. ("Berkshire Hathaway"). MidAmerican Funding's direct wholly owned subsidiary is MHC Inc. ("MHC"), which constitutes substantially all of MidAmerican Funding's assets, liabilities and business activities except those related to MidAmerican Funding's long-term debt securities. MHC conducts no business other than the ownership of its subsidiaries and related corporate services. MHC's principal subsidiary is MidAmerican Energy Company ("MidAmerican Energy"), a public utility with electric and natural gas operations. Direct, wholly owned nonregulated subsidiaries of MHC are Midwest Capital Group, Inc. ("Midwest Capital Group") and MEC Construction Services Co.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

In addition to the following significant accounting policies, refer to Note 2 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements for significant accounting policies of MidAmerican Funding.

Basis ofConsolidation and Presentation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of MidAmerican Funding and its subsidiaries in which it held a controlling financial interest as of the financial statement date. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated, other than those between rate-regulated operations.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired when MidAmerican Funding purchased MHC. MidAmerican Funding evaluates goodwill for impairment at least annually and completed its annual review as of October 31. When evaluating goodwill for impairment, MidAmerican Funding estimates the fair value of the reporting unit. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds the estimated fair value, then the identifiable assets, including identifiable intangible assets, and liabilities of the reporting unit are estimated at fair value as of the current testing date. The excess of the estimated fair value of the reporting unit over the current estimated fair value of net assets establishes the implied value of goodwill. The excess of the recorded goodwill over the implied goodwill value is charged to earnings as an impairment loss. A significant amount of judgment is required in estimating the fair value of the reporting unit and performing goodwill impairment tests. MidAmerican Funding uses a variety of methods to estimate a reporting unit's fair value, principally discounted projected future net cash flows. Key assumptions used include, but are not limited to, the use of estimated future cash flows; multiples of earnings and regulatory asset value; and an appropriate discount rate.In estimating future cash flows, MidAmerican Funding incorporates current market information, as well as historical factors. As such, the determination of fair value incorporates significant unobservable inputs. During 2013, 2012 and 2011, MidAmerican Funding did not record any goodwill impairments.

(3) Jointly Owned Utility Facilities

Refer to Note 3 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements.

(4) Regulatory Matters

(7) Noncontrolling Interests

Refer to Note 7 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements. Preferred securities of subsidiary are included in noncontrolling interests on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2012.

(8)Long-Term Debt

Refer to MidAmerican Funding's Consolidated Statements of Capitalization for detail of long-term debt and to Note 8 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements for a discussion of its long-term debt. In addition to MidAmerican Energy's annual repayments of long-term debt, MidAmerican Funding has $325 million of long-term debt due in 2029.

MidAmerican Funding parent company long-term debt is secured by a pledge of the common stock of MHC. See Item 15(c) for the Consolidated Financial Statements of MHC Inc. and subsidiaries. The bonds are the direct senior secured obligations of MidAmerican Funding and effectively rank junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities of the direct and indirect subsidiaries of MidAmerican Funding, to the extent of the assets of these subsidiaries. MidAmerican Funding may redeem the bonds in whole or in part at any time at a redemption price equal to the sum of any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption and the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the bonds or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the bonds, discounted to the date of redemption on a semiannual basis at the treasury yield plus 25 basis points.

Subsidiaries of MidAmerican Funding must make payments on their own indebtedness before making distributions to MidAmerican Funding. Refer to Note 8 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements for a discussion of utility regulatory restrictions affecting distributions from MidAmerican Energy. As a result of the utility regulatory restrictions agreed to by MidAmerican Energy in March 1999, MidAmerican Funding had restricted net assets of $2.6 billion as of December 31, 2013.

As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Funding was in compliance with all of its applicable long-term debt covenants.

Each of MidAmerican Funding's direct or indirect subsidiaries is organized as a legal entity separate and apart from MidAmerican Funding and its other subsidiaries. It should not be assumed that any asset of any subsidiary of MidAmerican Funding will be available to satisfy the obligations of MidAmerican Funding or any of its other subsidiaries; provided, however, that unrestricted cash or other assets which are available for distribution may, subject to applicable law and the terms of financing arrangements of such parties, be advanced, loaned, paid as dividends or otherwise distributed or contributed to MidAmerican Funding, one of its subsidiaries or affiliates thereof.

104

(9) Short-Term Debt and Revolving Credit Facilities

Refer to Note 9 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements. In addition to MidAmerican Energy's credit facilities, MHC has a $4 million unsecured credit facility, which expires in June 2014 and has a variable interest rate based on LIBOR plus a spread. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no borrowings outstanding under this credit facility. As of December 31, 2013, MHC was in compliance with the covenants of its revolving credit facility.

(10)Income Taxes

MidAmerican Funding's income tax benefit consists of the following for the years ended December 31 (in millions):

	2013			2012			2011
Current:
Federal	$	(200	)	$	(260	)	$	(480	)
State	(12		)	(23		)	(8		)
	(212		)	(283		)	(488		)
Deferred:
Federal	100			198			452
State	3			(21		)	11
	103			177			463
Investment tax credits	(1		)	(2		)	(1		)
Total	$	(110	)	$	(108	)	$	(26	)

A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate MidAmerican Funding's the effective income tax rate applicable to income before income tax benefit is as follows for the years ended December 31:

	2013		2012		2011
Federal statutory income tax rate	35	%	35	%	35	%
Income tax credits	(75	)	(60	)	(34	)
State income tax, net of federal income tax benefit	(3	)	(12	)	(1	)
Income tax method changes	—		(6	)	(11	)
Effects of ratemaking	(3	)	(1	)	—
Other, net	(2	)	(2	)	2
Effective income tax rate	(48	)%	(46	)%	(9	)%

Income tax credits relate primarily to production tax credits earned by MidAmerican Energy's wind-powered generating facilities. Federal renewable electricity production tax credits are earned as energy from qualifying wind-powered generating facilities is produced and sold and are based on a per-kilowatt hour rate pursuant to the applicable federal income tax law. Wind-powered generating facilities are eligible for the credits for 10 years from the date the qualifying generating facilities are placed in-service.

MidAmerican Energy's income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2012, reflects $16 million of federal income tax benefits recognized in connection with an income tax method change for income tax years prior to 2012 related to repair costs for its regulated utility electric transmission and distribution assets based on guidance published by the Internal Revenue Service. MidAmerican Energy's income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2011, reflects $35 million of federal income tax benefits in conjunction with the partial resolution of certain tax issues related to tax positions taken for income tax method changes in 2009 and 2010 associated with the determination of current income tax deductions for repair costs and administrative and general costs related to certain of MidAmerican Energy's regulated utility assets.

105

The income tax method changes result in current deductibility for applicable repair and administrative and general costs, which are capitalized for book purposes. MidAmerican Energy retroactively applied the method changes and deducted amounts related to prior years' costs on the tax return that includes the year of change. State utility rate regulation in Iowa requires that the tax effect of certain temporary differences be flowed through immediately to customers. Therefore, certain deferred amounts that would otherwise have been recognized in income tax expense have been included as changes in regulatory assets in recognition of MidAmerican Energy's ability to recover increased tax expense when such temporary differences reverse. This treatment of such temporary differences impacts income tax expense and effective income tax rates from year to year.

MidAmerican Funding's net deferred income tax liability consists of the following as of December 31 (in millions):

	2013			2012
Deferred income tax assets:
Regulatory liabilities	$	351		$	311
Employee benefits	61			83
Derivative contracts	9			32
Asset retirement obligations	172			132
Other	72			88
Total deferred income tax assets	665			646
Deferred income tax liabilities:
Depreciable property	(2,604		)	(2,432		)
Regulatory assets	(304		)	(353		)
Other	(43		)	(26		)
Total deferred income tax liabilities	(2,951		)	(2,811		)
Net deferred income tax liability	$	(2,286	)	$	(2,165	)
Reflected as:
Current assets - other	$	4		$	—
Current liabilities - other	—			(3		)
Deferred income taxes	(2,290		)	(2,162		)
	$	(2,286	)	$	(2,165	)

As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Funding has available $20 million of state carryforwards, principally related to $426 million of net operating losses, that expire at various intervals between 2014 and 2032.

The United States Internal Revenue Service has effectively settled its examination of MEHC's income tax returns through December 2009, including components related to MidAmerican Funding. In addition, state jurisdictions have closed their examinations of MidAmerican Funding's income tax returns through at least February 9, 2006, including Iowa and Illinois, which are closed through December 31, 2012, and December 31, 2008, respectively.

106

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of MidAmerican Funding's net unrecognized tax benefits is as follows for the years ended December 31 (in millions):

	2013			2012
Beginning balance	$	37		$	47
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year	11			10
Additions for tax positions of prior years	3			25
Reductions based on tax positions related to the current year	(10		)	(16		)
Reductions for tax positions of prior years	(9		)	(22		)
Statute of limitations	(2		)	(4		)
Settlements	(1		)	(2		)
Interest and penalties	—			(1		)
Ending balance	$	29		$	37

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, substantially all of MidAmerican Funding's unrecognized tax benefits of $29 million and $37 million, respectively, if recognized, would have an impact on the effective tax rate. The unrecognized tax benefits relate to tax positions for which ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty as to the timing of such deductibility.

(11) Employee Benefit Plans

Refer to Note 11 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements for additional information regarding MidAmerican Funding's pension, supplemental retirement and postretirement benefit plans.

Pension and postretirement costs allocated by MidAmerican Funding to its parent and other affiliates in each of the years ended December 31, were as follows (in millions):

	2013			2012			2011
Pension costs	$	6		$	5		$	5
Other postretirement costs	(2		)	(2		)	(1		)

(12) Asset Retirement Obligations

(13) Risk Management and Hedging Activities

Refer to Note 13 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements.

107

(14)Fair Value Measurements

Refer to Note 14 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements.

MidAmerican Funding's long-term debt is carried at cost on the Consolidated Financial Statements. The fair value of MidAmerican Funding's long-term debt is a Level 2 fair value measurement and has been estimated based upon quoted market prices, where available, or at the present value of future cash flows discounted at rates consistent with comparable maturities with similar credit risks. The carrying value of MidAmerican Funding's variable-rate long-term debt approximates fair value because of the frequent repricing of these instruments at market rates. The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of MidAmerican Funding's long-term debt as of December 31 (in millions):

	2013				2012
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value

The companies identified as affiliates of MidAmerican Funding are Berkshire Hathaway and its subsidiaries, including MEHC and its subsidiaries. The basis for the following transactions is provided for in service agreements between MidAmerican Funding and the affiliates.

MidAmerican Funding is reimbursed for charges incurred on behalf of its affiliates. The majority of these reimbursed expenses are for allocated general costs, such as insurance and building rent, and for employee wages, benefits and costs for corporate functions, such as information technology, treasury, legal and accounting. The amount of such reimbursements was $28 million, $42 million and $44 million for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

MidAmerican Funding reimbursed MEHC in the amount of $10 million, $7 million and $11 million in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, for its share of corporate expenses.

MidAmerican Energy purchases natural gas transportation and storage capacity services from Northern Natural Gas Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of MEHC, and coal transportation services from BNSF Railway Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, in the normal course of business at either tariffed or market prices. These purchases totaled $155 million, $59 million and $59 million in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

MHC has a $300 million revolving credit arrangement carrying interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate plus a spread to borrow from MEHC. Outstanding balances are unsecured and due on demand. The outstanding balance was $135 million at an interest rate of 0.418% as of December 31, 2013, and $246 million at an interest rate of 0.465% as of December 31, 2012, and is reflected as note payable to affiliate on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

MidAmerican Funding is party to a tax-sharing agreement and is part of the Berkshire Hathaway United States federal income tax return. As of December 31, 2013, MidAmerican Funding had current income taxes receivable from MEHC of $46 million and, as of December 31, 2012, had current income taxes payable to MEHC of $117 million. MidAmerican Funding received net cash receipts for income taxes from MEHC totaling $42 million, $698 million and $230 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

MidAmerican Funding recognizes the full amount of the funded status for its pension and postretirement plans, and amounts attributable to MidAmerican Funding's affiliates that have not previously been recognized through income are recognized as an intercompany balance with such affiliates. MidAmerican Funding adjusts these balances when changes to the funded status of the respective plans are recognized and does not intend to settle the balances currently. Amounts receivable from affiliates attributable to the funded status of employee benefit plans totaled $5 million and $16 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and similar amounts payable to affiliates totaled $31 million and $20 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

The indenture pertaining to MidAmerican Funding's long-term debt restricts MidAmerican Funding from paying a distribution on its equity securities, unless after making such distribution either its debt to total capital ratio does not exceed 0.67:1 and its interest coverage ratio is not less than 2.2:1 or its senior secured long-term debt rating is at least BBB or its equivalent. MidAmerican Funding may seek a release from this restriction upon delivery to the indenture trustee of written confirmation from the ratings agencies that without this restriction MidAmerican Funding's senior secured long-term debt would be rated at least BBB+.

(19) Segment Information

MidAmerican Funding has identified three reportable operating segments: regulated electric, regulated gas and nonregulated energy. The regulated electric segment derives most of its revenue from regulated retail sales of electricity to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and from wholesale sales. The regulated gas segment derives most of its revenue from regulated retail sales of natural gas to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and also obtains revenue by transporting gas owned by others through its distribution system. Pricing for regulated electric and regulated gas sales are established separately by regulatory agencies; therefore, management also reviews each segment separately to make decisions regarding allocation of resources and in evaluating performance. The nonregulated energy segment derives most of its revenue from nonregulated retail electric and gas activities. Common operating costs, interest income, interest expense and income tax expense are allocated to each segment based on certain factors, which primarily relate to the nature of the cost. "Other" in the tables below consists of the nonregulated subsidiaries of MidAmerican Funding not engaged in the energy business and parent company interest expense. Refer to Note 10 for a discussion of income tax method changes and related items affecting income tax (benefit) expense for the regulated electric and gas operating segments.

At the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company (MidAmerican Energy or MidAmerican Funding, as applicable) carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's respective management, including the Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and the Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).

There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2013, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company (MidAmerican Energy or MidAmerican Funding, as applicable) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13a-15(f).

In making this assessment, the Company's management used the criteria set forth in the framework in "Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992)" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on the evaluation conducted under the framework in "Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992)," the Company's management concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2013.

Under the policy, requests to provide services that require specific approval by the audit committee of MEHC will be submitted to the audit committee of MEHC by both MidAmerican Funding's and MidAmerican Energy's independent auditor and MEHC's Chief Financial Officer. All requests for services to be provided by the independent auditor that do not require specific approval by the audit committee of MEHC will be submitted to MEHC's Chief Financial Officer and must include a detailed description of the services to be rendered. MEHC's Chief Financial Officer will determine whether such services are included within the list of services that have received the general pre-approval of the audit committee of MEHC.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholder of

MHC Inc.

Des Moines, Iowa

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of capitalization of MHC Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013. Our audits also included the Company's financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 15(a)(2). These financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of MHC Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

MHC INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) Company Organization

MHC Inc. ("MHC") is an Iowa corporation with MidAmerican Funding, LLC ("MidAmerican Funding") as its sole shareholder. MidAmerican Funding is an Iowa limited liability company with MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company ("MEHC") as its sole member. MEHC is a consolidated subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. ("Berkshire Hathaway"). MHC constitutes substantially all of MidAmerican Funding's assets, liabilities and business activities except those related to MidAmerican Funding's long-term debt securities. MHC conducts no business other than the ownership of its subsidiaries and related corporate services. MHC's principal subsidiary is MidAmerican Energy Company ("MidAmerican Energy"), a public utility with electric and natural gas operations. Direct wholly owned nonregulated subsidiaries of MHC are Midwest Capital Group, Inc. and MEC Construction Services Co.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

In addition to the following significant accounting policies, refer to Note 2 of MidAmerican Energy's Notes to Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K for significant accounting policies of MHC.

Basis ofConsolidation and Presentation

The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of MHC and its subsidiaries in which it held a controlling financial interest as of the date of the financial statement. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated, other than those between rate-regulated operations. MHC has evaluated subsequent events through March 3, 2014, which is the date the Consolidated Financial Statements were issued.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired when MidAmerican Funding purchased MHC. MHC evaluates goodwill for impairment at least annually and completed its annual review as of October 31. When evaluating goodwill for impairment, MHC estimates the fair value of the reporting unit. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds the estimated fair value, then the identifiable assets, including identifiable intangible assets, and liabilities of the reporting unit are estimated at fair value as of the current testing date. The excess of the estimated fair value of the reporting unit over the current estimated fair value of net assets establishes the implied value of goodwill. The excess of the recorded goodwill over the implied goodwill value is charged to earnings as an impairment loss. A significant amount of judgment is required in estimating the fair value of the reporting unit and performing goodwill impairment tests. MHC uses a variety of methods to estimate a reporting unit's fair value, principally discounted projected future net cash flows. Key assumptions used include, but are not limited to, the use of estimated future cash flows; multiples of earnings and regulatory asset value; and an appropriate discount rate. In estimating future cash flows, MHC incorporates current market information, as well as historical factors. As such, the determination of fair value incorporates significant unobservable inputs. During 2013, 2012 and 2011, MHC did not record any goodwill impairments.

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were no borrowings outstanding under this credit facility. As of December 31, 2013, MHC was in compliance with the covenants of its revolving credit facility.

125

(10) Income Taxes

MHC's income tax benefit consists of the following for the years ended December 31 (in millions):

	2013			2012			2011
Current:
Federal	$	(193	)	$	(253	)	$	(473	)
State	(10		)	(20		)	(5		)
	(203		)	(273		)	(478		)
Deferred:
Federal	100			198			452
State	3			(21		)	11
	103			177			463
Investment tax credits	(1		)	(2		)	(1		)
Total	$	(101	)	$	(98	)	$	(16	)

A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate to MHC's effective income tax rate applicable to income before income tax benefit is as follows for the years ended December 31:

	2013		2012		2011
Federal statutory income tax rate	35	%	35	%	35	%
Income tax credits	(68	)	(55	)	(32	)
State income tax, net of federal income tax benefit	(2	)	(10	)	1
Income tax method changes	—		(6	)	(10	)
Effects of ratemaking	(3	)	—		—
Other, net	(2	)	(2	)	1
Effective income tax rate	(40	)%	(38	)%	(5	)%

Income tax credits relate primarily to production tax credits earned by MidAmerican Energy's wind-powered generating facilities. Federal renewable electricity production tax credits are earned as energy from qualifying wind-powered generating facilities is produced and sold and are based on a per-kilowatt hour rate pursuant to the applicable federal income tax law. Wind-powered generating facilities are eligible for the credits for 10 years from the date the qualifying generating facilities are placed in-service.

MidAmerican Energy's income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2012, reflects $16 million of federal income tax benefits recognized in connection with an income tax method change for income tax years prior to 2012 related to repair costs for its regulated utility electric transmission and distribution assets based on guidance published by the Internal Revenue Service. MidAmerican Energy's income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2011, reflects $35 million of federal income tax benefits in conjunction with the partial resolution of certain tax issues related to tax positions taken for income tax method changes in 2009 and 2010 associated with the determination of current income tax deductions for repair costs and administrative and general costs related to certain of MidAmerican Energy's regulated utility assets.

The income tax method changes result in current deductibility for applicable repair and administrative and general costs, which are capitalized for book purposes. MidAmerican Energy retroactively applied the method changes and deducted amounts related to prior years' costs on the tax return that includes the year of change. State utility rate regulation in Iowa requires that the tax effect of certain temporary differences be flowed through immediately to customers. Therefore, certain deferred amounts that would otherwise have been recognized in income tax expense have been included as changes in regulatory assets in recognition of MidAmerican Energy's ability to recover increased tax expense when such temporary differences reverse. This treatment of such temporary differences impacts income tax expense and effective income tax rates from year to year.

126

MHC's net deferred income tax liability consists of the following as of December 31 (in millions):

	2013			2012
Deferred income tax assets:
Regulatory liabilities	$	351		$	311
Employee benefits	61			83
Derivative contracts	9			32
Asset retirement obligations	172			132
Other	72			88
Total deferred income tax assets	665			646
Deferred income tax liabilities:
Depreciable property	(2,604		)	(2,432		)
Regulatory assets	(304		)	(353		)
Other	(43		)	(26		)
Total deferred income tax liabilities	(2,951		)	(2,811		)
Net deferred income tax liability	$	(2,286	)	$	(2,165	)
Reflected as:
Current assets - other	$	4		$	—
Current liabilities - other	—			(3		)
Deferred income taxes	(2,290		)	(2,162		)
	$	(2,286	)	$	(2,165	)

As of December 31, 2013, MHC has available $20 million of state carryforwards, principally related to $426 million of net operating losses, that expire at various intervals between 2014 and 2032.

The United States Internal Revenue Service has effectively settled its examination of MEHC's income tax returns through December 2009, including components related to MHC. In addition, state jurisdictions have closed their examinations of MHC's income tax returns through at least February 9, 2006, including Iowa and Illinois, which are closed through December 31, 2012, and December 31, 2008, respectively.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of MHC's net unrecognized tax benefits is as follows for the years ended December 31 (in millions):

	2013			2012
Beginning balance	$	37		$	47
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year	11			10
Additions for tax positions of prior years	3			25
Reductions based on tax positions related to the current year	(10		)	(16		)
Reductions for tax positions of prior years	(9		)	(22		)
Statute of limitations	(2		)	(4		)
Settlements	(1		)	(2		)
Interest and penalties	—			(1		)
Ending balance	$	29		$	37

As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, substantially all of MHC's unrecognized tax benefits of $29 million and $37 million, respectively, if recognized, would have an impact on the effective tax rate. The unrecognized tax benefits relate to tax positions for which ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty as to the timing of such deductibility.

(18) Related Party Transactions

The companies identified as affiliates of MHC are Berkshire Hathaway and its subsidiaries, including MEHC and its subsidiaries. The basis for the following transactions is provided for in service agreements between MHC and the affiliates.

MHC is reimbursed for charges incurred on behalf of its affiliates. The majority of these reimbursed expenses are for allocated general costs, such as insurance and building rent, and for employee wages, benefits and costs for corporate functions, such as information technology, treasury, legal and accounting. The amount of such reimbursements was $28 million, $42 million and $44 million for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

MHC reimbursed MEHC in the amount of $10 million, $7 million and $11 million in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, for its share of corporate expenses.

MidAmerican Energy purchases natural gas transportation and storage capacity services from Northern Natural Gas Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of MEHC, and coal transportation services from BNSF Railway Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, in the normal course of business at either tariffed or market prices. These purchases totaled $155 million, $59 million and $59 million in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

MHC has a $300 million revolving credit arrangement carrying interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate plus a spread to borrow from MEHC. Outstanding balances are unsecured and due on demand. The outstanding balance was $135 million at an interest rate of 0.418% as of December 31, 2013, and $246 million at an interest rate of 0.465% as of December 31, 2012, and is reflected as note payable to affiliate on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

MEHC has a $100 million revolving credit arrangement carrying interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate plus a spread to borrow from MHC. Outstanding balances are unsecured and due on demand. There were no borrowings outstanding throughout 2013 and 2012.

MHC settles all obligations of MidAmerican Funding including primarily interest costs on MidAmerican Funding's long-term debt. Net amounts paid by MHC on behalf of MidAmerican Funding totaled $13 million, $13 million and $218 million for 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

MHC had accounts receivable from affiliates of $266 million and $252 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, that are reflected in receivables, net and receivable from affiliate on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. MHC also had accounts payable to affiliates of $14 million and $7 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, that are included in accounts payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

129

MHC is party to a tax-sharing agreement and is part of the Berkshire Hathaway United States federal income tax return. As of December 31, 2013, MHC had current income taxes receivable from MEHC of $46 million and, as of December 31, 2012, had current income taxes payable to MEHC of $117 million. MHC received net cash receipts for income taxes from MEHC totaling $32 million, $689 million and $220 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

MHC recognizes the full amount of the funded status for its pension and postretirement plans, and amounts attributable to MHC's affiliates that have not previously been recognized through income are recognized as an intercompany balance with such affiliates. MHC adjusts these balances when changes to the funded status of the respective plans are recognized and does not intend to settle the balances currently. Amounts receivable from affiliates attributable to the funded status of employee benefit plans totaled $5 million and $16 million as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and similar amounts payable to affiliates totaled $31 million and $20 million, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. See Note 11 for further information pertaining to pension and postretirement accounting.

(19) Segment Information

MHC has identified three reportable operating segments: regulated electric, regulated gas and nonregulated energy. The regulated electric segment derives most of its revenue from regulated retail sales of electricity to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and from wholesale sales. The regulated gas segment derives most of its revenue from regulated retail sales of natural gas to residential, commercial, and industrial customers and also obtains revenue by transporting gas owned by others through its distribution system. Pricing for regulated electric and regulated gas sales are established separately by regulatory agencies; therefore, management also reviews each segment separately to make decisions regarding allocation of resources and in evaluating performance. The nonregulated energy segment derives most of its revenue from nonregulated retail electric and gas activities. Common operating costs, interest income, interest expense and income tax expense are allocated to each segment based on certain factors, which primarily relate to the nature of the cost. “Other” in the tables below consists principally of the nonregulated subsidiaries of MHC not engaged in the energy business. Refer to Note 10 for a discussion of income tax method changes and related items affecting income tax (benefit) expense for the regulated electric and gas operating segments.
