FREEPORT-McMoRan COPPER & GOLD INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation. The consolidated financial statements of
Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc. (FCX or the Company) include its
majority-owned subsidiaries, including P.T. Freeport Indonesia
Company (PT-FI) and Rio Tinto Minera, S.A. (RTM). Reclassifications
were made to prior year financial statements to conform to the 1993
presentation. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
Cash and Short-Term Investments. The Company considers highly
liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months
or less to be cash equivalents. PT-FI and RTM
cash is not available to FCX until cash dividends are paid to FCX.
At December 31, 1993, PT-FI's net assets totaled $184.3 million,
including $24.6 million of retained earnings.
On January 5, 1994, PT-FI declared a $42.1 million dividend
of which $36.1 million was due to FCX. At December 31, 1993,
RTM's net assets totaled $40.2 million. RTM is not
expected to pay a dividend to FCX in the near future.
Inventories. Inventories are generally stated at the lower
of cost or market. PT-FI uses the average cost method and
RTM uses the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost method.
Property, Plant and Equipment. Property, plant and
equipment is carried at cost. Mineral exploration costs
are expensed as incurred, except in the year the property is deemed to
contain a viable mineral deposit, in which case they are capitalized.
Development costs, which include interest incurred during the
construction and development period, are capitalized.
Expenditures for replacements and improvements are capitalized.
Depreciation expense for mining and milling operations is
determined using the unit-of-production method based on
estimates of recoverable reserves. Other assets, including
RTM's smelter, are depreciated on a straight-line basis
over estimated useful lives of 15 to 20 years for buildings
and 3 to 25 years for machinery and equipment.
Hedging. PT-FI has a price protection program for virtually
all of its estimated copper sales to be priced in 1994 at an
average floor price of $.90 per pound, while allowing
full benefit from prices above that amount. The cost
of this program ($6.0 million at December 31, 1993) is
included in product inventories and will be amortized during 1994.
Based on an average 1994 forward market price of approximately
$.82 per pound of copper (December 31, 1993 forward prices per
London Metal Exchange, LME), the market value of
these contracts is approximately $56 million.
The contracts are with a diversified group
of financially strong counterparties.
RTM has forward contracts for approximately 61 percent
of its estimated 1994 gold production at $383.80 per ounce
and 38 percent of its estimated 1995 gold production at
$394.80 per ounce. RTM has also hedged approximately 53
percent and 38 percent of its estimated 1994 and 1995
silver production at $4.70 and $4.80 per ounce, respectively.
Based on a market price of $390.65 per ounce of gold and
$5.12 per ounce of silver (December 31, 1993 price per LME),
these contracts are in a loss position of approximately
$2 million. Additionally, RTM has a policy of eliminating
significant exposure to copper price fluctuations by hedging
purchases of concentrate at its smelter through the use of
forward contracts. At December 31, 1993, RTM sold forward
approximately 4.2 million pounds of its concentrate inventory
at approximately $.78 per pound of copper.
Concentrate Sales. Revenues associated with PT-FI's sales
of metal concentrates are recorded net of royalties,
treatment costs, and amortization of the cost of its price
protection program. PT-FI's concentrate sales agreements
provide for provisional billings based on world metals prices,
primarily the LME, with actual settlement generally based on
appropriate future metals prices. Revenues, recorded initially
using provisional prices, are adjusted using current prices.
At December 31, 1993, copper sales totaling 213.4
million pounds remained to be contractually priced at various
times in 1994. As a result of PT-FI's price protection program,
these pounds are recorded at an average price of $.90
per pound. Gold sales are priced according to individual
contract terms.
Foreign Translation Adjustment. The functional currency for
RTM is the Spanish peseta. RTM's assets and liabilities are
translated to U.S. dollars using the exchange rate in
effect at the balance sheet date. The cumulative results
of the translation adjustment are recorded as a separate
component of stockholders' equity. Results of operations are
translated using the average exchange rates during the period.
Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions,
which were not material, are included in net income.
Changes in Accounting Principle. During 1993, the Company
adopted the following changes to accounting policies:
Periodic Scheduled Maintenance Costs - Costs related to
periodic scheduled maintenance (turnarounds) were previously
capitalized when incurred and amortized generally over six
months to two years. Effective January 1, 1993, the method
of accounting was changed to expense these costs when incurred.
Deferred Charges - The accounting for deferred charges was
changed to provide for deferral of only those costs that
directly relate to the acquisition, construction, and development
of assets and to the issuance of debt and related instruments.
Previously, certain other costs that benefitted future periods
were amortized over the periods benefitted.
Management Information Systems - Costs of management information
systems (MIS) equipment and software that have a material impact
on periodic measurement of net income are capitalized and
amortized over their estimated productive lives. Other MIS costs,
including equipment and purchased software that involve
relatively immaterial amounts (currently individual expenditures
of less than $.5 million) and short estimated productive lives
(currently less than three years) are charged to expense when incurred.
During 1993, approximately $3.5 million of equipment and purchased
software was charged to expense. Previously, most expenditures
for MIS equipment and purchased software were capitalized.
The accounting for MIS costs was changed to recognize the
rapid rate of technology change in MIS which results in short
productive lives of equipment and software and a need for
continuing investments.
The changes in accounting policy were adopted to improve
the measurement of operating results by reporting cash expenditures
as expenses when incurred unless they are directly related to
long-lived asset additions. In addition, the administrative costs of
accounting for assets will be reduced by not capitalizing and
amortizing relatively insignificant expenditures that do not
have a material effect on measuring periodic net income.
If these changes in accounting principle had not been adopted,
1993 income before changes in accounting principle would not have
been materially different from the amount reported. If the changes
in accounting principle had been applied in prior years, 1992
and 1991 net income would not have been materially different
from amounts reported.
Restructuring Charges. FCX recognized
expense of $20.8 million during 1993 for restructuring the
administrative organization (including primarily personnel
related costs and a write-off of excess office facilities)
of Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (FTX), the parent company of FCX,
the cost to downsize PT-FI's computing and MIS structure,
and a write-off of costs associated with PT-FI's previous
credit agreement. See Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations for information about a reclassification of
restructuring charges from those previously reported resulting from
views expressed by the Securities and Exchange Commission staff.
2. OWNERSHIP IN PT-FI
In January 1991, the Government of Indonesia (the Government)
increased its ownership in PT-FI from 8.9 percent to 10 percent
by purchasing 2,242 PT-FI shares owned by FCX for
$18.1 million. FCX withholds 40 percent of PT-FI dividends
on all Government-owned shares until the non-interest bearing
receivable ($2.2 million at December 31, 1993) is satisfied.
In December 1991, FCX exchanged 21,300 shares of PT-FI
common stock for a $212.5 million subordinated promissory note
from PT-FI, reducing FCX's ownership in PT-FI to
approximately 89 percent with the remaining 11 percent being
owned by the Government. Interest on the note is due quarterly
at a rate equal to the effective rate under PT-FI's
amended credit agreement, and principal is payable in twenty
equal, quarterly installments beginning January 2000.
If interest or principal is in arrears, PT-FI cannot pay
dividends on its common stock.
In December 1991, PT-FI and the Government signed a
new contract of work (New COW) which has a 30-year term
with two 10-year extensions permitted. Under the New COW, FCX
pays the Government a royalty of 1.5 percent to 3.5 percent
on the value of copper sold, net of delivery costs and
treatment and refining charges, and a 1 percent royalty on the
sales value of gold and silver ($9.5 million in 1993,
$15.7 million in 1992, and $10.5 million in 1991).
The New COW required FCX to increase the ownership by Indonesian
entities in PT-FI to 20 percent, which was achieved
through the sale of 10 percent (21,300 shares) of PT-FI
common stock to an entity owned by Indonesian investors
on December 31, 1991.
In December 1992, FCX purchased 49 percent (10.5 million shares)
of the capital stock of the publicly traded Indonesian entity which
owned the 10 percent of PT-FI sold in 1991.
In December 1993, PT-FI issued 8,321 shares of its stock to
FCX in exchange for the conversion of certain notes (Note 7).
FCX's direct ownership in PT-FI totaled 80.8 percent and 80.0
percent at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively. In 1994, PT-FI
issued an additional 6,169 shares of its stock to FCX for
conversion of the remaining notes, increasing FCX's direct
ownership in PT-FI to 81.3 percent.
Each transaction discussed above used the fair market
value of FCX Class A common stock at the time of the agreements
as the basis to calculate the purchase and sale prices.
3. ACQUISITION OF RTM
In March 1993, FCX acquired a 65 percent interest in RTM,
which operates a copper smelter and a gold mine with an
estimated remaining life of fewer than four years, by investing
approximately $50 million, excluding transaction costs,
to be used by RTM for working capital requirements and
capital expenditures, including funding a portion of the costs of
the expansion of its smelter production capacity from
its current 150,000 metric tons of metal per year to 180,000
metric tons of metal per year by mid-1995. In December 1993,
RTM redeemed the remaining 35 percent interest for approximately
$19 million. Selected balance sheet information reflecting the

4. REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK
In August 1993, FCX sold publicly 6.0 million depositary shares
representing 300,000 shares of its Gold-Denominated Preferred Stock.
Each depositary share has a cumulative quarterly cash dividend equal
to the value of 0.000875 ounces of gold and is subject to
mandatory cash redemption in August 2003 for the value of
0.1 ounces of gold. The depositary shares are recorded at
their offering price and are being reflected as a hedge
of future gold sales for accounting purposes. The net
proceeds from this offering ($220.4 million) were loaned
to PT-FI in the form of a Gold Production Payment Loan, requiring
quarterly production payments of 6,176 ounces of refined
gold bullion or the dollar equivalent thereof. Based on the
December 31, 1993 closing market price, these depositary
shares had a market value of $258.0 million.
In January 1994, FCX sold publicly 4.3 million depositary
shares representing 215,279 shares of its Gold-Denominated
Preferred Stock, Series II. Each depositary share has a
cumulative quarterly cash dividend equal to the value of
0.0008125 ounces of gold and is subject to mandatory cash
redemption in February 2006 for the value of 0.1 ounces of gold.
The net proceeds from this offering ($158.5 million) were
loaned to PT-FI under terms similar to the Gold Production
Payment Loan discussed above.
5. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
FCX has 312.0 million authorized shares of capital stock
consisting of 110.0 million of Special stock, 200.0 million
of Class B common stock, and 2.0 million of Preferred stock.
Special and Preferred Stock. At December 31, 1993, there
were 84.4 million shares of Special stock issued and outstanding,
58.0 million as Class A common stock and 26.4
million as Special Preference Stock.
In July 1992, FCX sold publicly 8.6 million shares of
its Class A common stock and 9.0 million depositary shares.
Each depositary share represents 2-16/17 shares of its 7%
Convertible Exchangeable Special Preference Stock (Special
Preference Stock), has a cumulative annual cash dividend of $1.75
(payable quarterly) and a $25 liquidation preference, and is
convertible at the option of the holder into approximately
1.009 shares of FCX Class A common stock (equivalent to a
conversion price of $24.77 per share of FCX Class A common stock).
Beginning August 1, 1995, FCX may redeem these depositary shares
for cash at $26.225 per share (declining ratably to $25 per share
in March 2002) plus accrued and unpaid dividends. A portion
of the proceeds were used to purchase the 49 percent interest
in the publicly traded Indonesian entity which owned a 10 percent
interest in PT-FI and $145.7 million, net of $4.3 million of
expenses, was loaned to PT-FI in January 1993, in exchange
for an 8.235% Convertible Subordinated Debenture due August
1, 2007.
In July 1993, FCX sold publicly 14.0 million depositary
shares representing 700,000 shares of its Step-Up Convertible
Preferred Stock (Step-Up Preferred Stock). Each
depositary share has a cumulative annual cash dividend
of $1.25 through August 1, 1996 and thereafter $1.75
(payable quarterly) and a $25 liquidation preference, and is convertible
at the option of the holder into approximately 0.826 shares
of FCX Class A common stock (equivalent to a conversion price
of $30.28 per share of FCX Class A common stock). From
August 1, 1996 and prior to August 1, 1999, FCX may redeem
these depositary shares for approximately 0.826 shares of FCX Class A
common stock per depositary share if the market price of FCX Class A
common stock exceeds certain specified levels. Thereafter, FCX may
redeem these depositary shares at $25 per share (payable in FCX Class
A common stock, cash or a combination of both, at FCX's option)
plus accrued and unpaid dividends. The net proceeds from this
offering ($341.3 million) were loaned to PT-FI in the form of a Step-Up
Perpetual Convertible Subordinated Debenture bearing interest
at the rate of 5.88 percent per annum through August 1, 1996
and 8.235 percent thereafter on the unpaid principal amount.
6. INCOME TAXES
FCX records income taxes pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109. Substantially all temporary
differences relate to property, plant and equipment. FCX has
provided a valuation allowance for all tax credit carryforwards
($29.5 million) as these would only be utilized should FCX be
required to pay regular U.S. tax, which FCX views as
unlikely because Indonesian taxes exceed U.S. taxes.
In addition, RTM, which is subject to a separate tax jurisdiction
(Spain), has net operating loss carryforwards totaling
approximately $108 million ($91 million pre-acquisition)
which expire from 1994 to 1998. FCX has provided a valuation
allowance for the full amount of these carryforwards as RTM
has not generated taxable income in recent years.
The provision for income taxes consists of the following:

======== ========
PT-FI amended its $550.0 million credit agreement in June 1993.
The amended credit agreement (the Credit Agreement), guaranteed by
FCX and FTX, is structured as a three year revolving line of credit
followed by a 3 1/2 year reducing revolver. The Credit Agreement
is part of an $800.0 million committed credit facility available
to FTX and its subsidiaries including PT-FI, and is subject to a
borrowing base, redetermined annually by the banks,
which establishes maximum consolidated debt for FTX and its
subsidiaries, including PT-FI. PT-FI's limit under the facility
is $550.0 million subject to the borrowing base discussed
above. Interest is variable and commitment fees are payable
at 0.38 percent per annum on the average daily unused commitment.
The Credit Agreement provides for working capital requirements,
specified coverage of fixed charges, and restrictions on other borrowings.
PT-FI assigned its existing and future sales contracts and pledged
its rights under the New COW and its accounts receivables and other
assets as security for its borrowings under the Credit Agreement.
As of December 31, 1993, $547.5 million was available under the current
borrowing base and $412.0 million of borrowings were unused under
the credit facility. To the extent FTX and its other subsidiaries
incur additional debt, the amount available to PT-FI under the
Credit Agreement may be reduced.
In July 1991, FCX sold $1.035 billion face amount of subordinated
Zero Coupon Exchangeable Notes (the Notes). The net proceeds were
loaned to PT-FI under similar terms. The remaining Notes outstanding
were redeemed in January 1994. Notes with a face amount of
$386.0 million, $322.6 million, and $326.4 million were presented
for exchange in 1994, 1993, and 1992, respectively, for which FCX
issued 5.8 million, 4.8 million, and 4.5 million shares of Class A
common stock, and the Company paid $.3 million in 1994 and $7.9
million in 1992. As a result of the issuance by FCX of its Class A
common stock, PT-FI issued 14,490 shares of its stock to FCX.
Had the Company called the Notes for redemption on January 1,
1993, net income would have been $.10 per common share for 1993.
In 1993, FCX borrowed funds from FTX for the acquisition
of RTM and $12.3 million was outstanding at December 31, 1993.
Interest accrues at a rate equal to the effective rate
under the Credit Agreement and was $.2 million in 1993.
RTM's gold and silver loans are payable with 107,800 ounces
of gold (9,200 ounces payable quarterly) and 953,100 ounces of silver
(105,900 ounces payable quarterly), and are carried at the market
price of gold ($331.70 per ounce) and silver ($3.70 per ounce) at the
date of FCX's acquisition. The loans are accounted for as a hedge.
Interest is calculated on the outstanding ounces at the current
prices on the date of payment. Based on the December 31, 1993
LME quotes for gold and silver, the market value of this debt was
approximately $47 million.
RTM also has several short-term credit facilities with banks.
The stated rates of interest on these loans range from 3.7 percent
to 13 percent. RTM has pledged certain of its assets as security
for these loans.
The minimum principal payments for debt scheduled for each of
the five succeeding years based on the amounts outstanding at
December 31, 1993, assuming the terms of the Credit
Agreement are not extended and the note to FTX is repaid by
borrowing from the Credit Agreement, are $48.8 million in 1994,
$18.8 million in 1995, $15.0 million in 1996, $13.5 million in 1997,
and $55.2 million in 1998.
The Company has an interest rate exchange agreement resulting
in a fixed rate of 8.3 percent on $85.7 million of financing at
December 31, 1993, reducing $14.3 million annually through December
1999. Based on market conditions at December 31, 1993, unwinding this
interest swap would cost an estimated $8.3 million.
Capitalized interest totaled $24.5 million in 1993, $24 million
in 1992, and $18.3 million in 1991.
8. MAJOR CUSTOMERS
Historically, most of PT-FI's sales have been made under long-term contracts.
The following table details the percentage of total product sold by
PT-FI to its customers:
Years Ended December 31,
_________________________
1993 1992 1991
____ ____ ____
Long-term contracts
Japanese companies.................................44% 34% 36%
Swiss firm.........................................13 13 17
German firm.........................................7 7 11
Other..............................................35 12 12
Spot sales............................................1 34 24
The contract with a group of Japanese companies extends through
December 31, 2000, whereas the contracts with the Swiss and German
firms extend through December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
Certain terms of these long-term contracts are negotiated annually.
There are several other long-term agreements in place, each accounting
for less than 10 percent of 1993 sales. During 1993, PT-FI supplied
RTM with approximately 90,000 metric tons of copper concentrate and
is expected to supply approximately 150,000 metric tons in 1994,
providing for approximately 20 percent and 33 percent, respectively,
of RTM's requirements in those years. Beginning in 1996, PT-FI is
expected to provide RTM with approximately one-half of its copper
concentrate requirements.
RTM's customers are located primarily in Spain and European
Union countries, none of which accounted for over 10 percent of the
Company's total revenues.
9. TRANSACTIONS WITH FTX AND EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
Management Services Agreement. FTX furnishes general executive,
administrative, financial, accounting, legal, and certain other
services to the Company under a management services agreement
terminable by either party on December 31 in any year, upon six months
written notice. These costs, which include related overhead,
are non-interest bearing, reimbursed monthly and totaled $49.0
million in 1993 (excluding $10.7 million of restructuring costs),
$44.9 million in 1992, and $33.4 million in 1991.
Pension Plans. Substantially all the employees seconded to the
Company from FTX are covered by FTX's defined benefit plan for
salaried employees. The accumulated benefits and plan assets
are not determined separately from FTX and amounts allocated to FCX under
this plan have not been material. As of December 31, 1993,
FTX's accumulated benefit obligation under the plan was fully funded.
PT-FI has a defined benefit plan covering substantially all
of its Indonesian national employees which is funded through cash
payments to retirees at the date of retirement. Benefits are based
on years of service and level of compensation. It is anticipated that
in order to comply with new Indonesian pension laws, certain amendments
to the plan will be made in 1994 which will affect future benefits
provided and funding requirements. These amendments are not expected
to have a material effect on the financial statements. The actuarial
present value of the accumulated benefit obligation, determined by the
projected credit method, was fully accrued at December 31, 1993, and
amounted to $6.0 million. The projected benefit obligation at
December 31, 1993, was $11.9 million assuming a discount rate
of 11 percent and an annual increase in future compensation
levels of 9 percent. The pension expense for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1993, was not material.
RTM has a contractual obligation to supplement the amounts paid
to retired employees. Based on an assumed discount rate of 8 percent,
the liability accrued for such payments totaled $79.4 million at
December 31, 1993 ($76.6 million for retirees and $2.8 million
for current employees). Since the initial acquisition, RTM has
recorded expense of $5.2 million compared with cash payments of
$8.0 million. This obligation is unfunded.
Other Postretirement Benefits. FTX provides certain health care
and life insurance benefits for retired employees, including
employees seconded to FCX. Effective January 1,
1991, FCX adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 106 (FAS 106) requiring current accrual for postretirement
benefits other than pensions, recording an $11.4 million charge
as the cumulative effect of the accounting change. The FAS 106 expense
totaled $1.1 million in 1993 ($.2 million for service cost and
$.9 million in interest for prior period services), $1.3 million in 1992
($.3 million for service cost and $1.0 million in interest for
prior period services), and $1.3 million in 1991 ($.4 million for
service cost and $.9 million in interest for prior period services).
Summary information of the plan is as follows:
December 31,

Actuarial present value of accumulated
postretirement obligation:

Unrecognized net loss...................................... (668) (575)
_______ _______
Accrued postretirement benefit cost........................ $12,344 $12,087
======= =======
In determining the FAS 106 amounts, FTX used an initial health
care cost trend rate of 11.5 percent for 1993 (12 percent for 1992),
decreasing 1/2 percent per year until reaching 6 percent. A 1 percent
increase in the trend rate would increase the FAS 106 amounts by
approximately 10 percent. The discount rate used was 7 percent in
1993 and 8.5 percent in 1992. FCX anticipates funding these costs,
in addition to the annual cash costs, over the expected life of its
mineral reserves. FTX has the right to modify or terminate these benefits.
10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Environmental. PT-FI believes it is in compliance with all
applicable Indonesian environmental laws, rules, and regulations.
Based on current Indonesian environmental regulations, eventual
mine closure and reclamation costs, at the mine in Irian Jaya, is
not expected to be material.
RTM's capital expenditures for 1994 are expected to include
approximately $18 million to modify its sulphuric acid plants,
including expanding their capacity, to comply with certain
environmental standards in Spain. Additionally, at December 31,
1993 the Company had an accrual of $10.3 million related to RTM's
impending mine closure and the eventual closure of its smelter.
Long-Term Contracts and Operating Leases. At December 31, 1993, RTM
had purchase commitments totaling $25.6 million related to the
expansion of its smelter. In addition, it had commitments to
purchase concentrate from third parties (excluding PT-FI) of 305,000
metric tons in 1994, 295,000 metric tons in 1995, 260,000 metric
tons in 1996, 140,000 metric tons in 1997, and a total of 580,000
metric tons from 1998-2002, at then market prices.
FCX's minimum annual contractual charges under noncancellable
long-term contracts and operating leases which expire during the
period 1994 to 2000, totals $35.4 million, with $11.8 million in 1994,
$8.3 million in 1995, $6.1 million in 1996, $4.2 million in 1997,
and $3.8 million in 1998. Total rental expense under long-term contracts
and operating leases amounted to $15.4 million, $3.9 million, and
$3.3 million in 1993, 1992, and 1991, respectively.
Infrastructure Assets Sales. During 1993, the Company entered
into a joint venture agreement with P.T. ALatieF Nusakarya
Corporation (ALatieF), an Indonesian investor, which
provides for the sale of certain portions of the to-be-constructed
infrastructure assets and certain existing assets by PT-FI to a
joint venture or ventures (the ALatieF Joint Venture) owned
one-third by PT-FI and two-thirds by ALatieF for total consideration of
$270.0 million. The acquired assets will be made available
to PT-FI and its employees and designees under arrangements
which will provide the ALatieF Joint Venture with a
guaranteed minimum rate of return on its investment.
Funding of the ALatieF Joint Venture is expected to be
provided by $90.0 million in equity contributions from the ALatieF Joint
Venture partners and $180.0 million in debt financing,
which is expected to be guaranteed by PT-FI, FCX or both.
The sale of the first group of assets to the ALatieF Joint Venture
was completed in December 1993 for a price of $90.0 million.
The sale was partially financed with a $60.0 million medium
term loan facility which is guaranteed by PT-FI (Note
7). The variable rate loan has a 5 percent per year amortization
with a balloon payment after five years. The ALatieF Joint
Venture is consolidated and no gain or loss was
recorded on the sale. The sales which are anticipated for
1994 and later are subject to the execution of definitive
agreements and certain Government approvals.
In December 1993, PT-FI announced the execution of a
Letter of Intent with Duke Energy Corp. (Duke Energy), a wholly
owned affiliate of Duke Power Company, and PowerLink
Corporation (PowerLink), a subsidiary of Northstar Energy
Corporation, pursuant to which PT-FI would sell its existing
and to-be-constructed power generation and transmission
assets and certain other power-related assets to a joint
venture (the Power Joint Venture) whose ownership consists
of Duke Energy (30 percent), PowerLink (30 percent), PT-FI (30
percent), and an Indonesian investor (10 percent). The total
value of the transaction is estimated at $200 million and
is expected to be concluded in two phases. The first sale,
representing the existing assets, is expected to exceed
$100 million and to occur in mid-1994. The final sale,
representing the to-be-constructed expansion-related assets, is
expected to occur during the first half of 1995. Under
the agreement, the Power Joint Venture will own these assets
and be responsible for providing the electrical power
services required by PT-FI at its mining, milling, and
support operations in Irian Jaya, Indonesia, including
the power services required for the expansion of ore throughput to
115,000 metric tons of ore milled per day. The transaction
is subject to the execution of definitive agreements between
PT-FI and the Power Joint Venture, financing, and certain
Government approvals.
PT-FI is proceeding with plans to sell other non-operating
assets under terms whereby the purchaser will operate the assets
and provide services to PT-FI and its employees and designees.

a. The quarterly results have been restated to reflect the cumulative
effect of the changes in accounting principle (Note 1) and the RTM
investment on a fully consolidated basis. FCX previously reported this
investment using the equity method of accounting because FCX anticipated
reducing its interest below 50 percent within one year of the initial
investment in RTM. FCX is now considering alternative forms of financing.
b. Includes a $9.9 million charge ($.05 per share), net of taxes and
minority interest, for the cumulative effect of the changes in accounting
principle (Note 1).
c. Includes restructuring charges of $3.4 million ($1.9 million to net
income or $.01 per share) and $17.4 million ($9.6 million to net income or
$.05 per share) during the first and second quarters, respectively. The
second quarter includes nonrecurring charges totaling $16.3 million ($9.0
million to net income or $.05 per share).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
TO THE STOCKHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF FREEPORT-McMoRan COPPER &
GOLD INC.: We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Freeport-
McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc. (the Company), a Delaware Corporation, as of
December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related statements of income, cash flow
and stockholders' equity for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 1993. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes 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, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as
of December 31, 1993 and 1992 and the results of its operations and its
cash flow for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1993
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Notes 9 and 1 to the financial statements, effective
January 1, 1991, the Company changed its method of accounting for
postretirement benefits other than pensions and effective January 1, 1993,
changed its method of accounting for periodic scheduled maintenance costs,
deferred charges, and costs of management information systems.
