The general partners are Century Pension Income Fund XXIII ("XXIII") and Century Pension Income Fund XXIV ("XXIV"), California limited partnerships which are affiliated through their general partners. Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and in banks, money market funds and certificates of deposit with original maturities of less than 90 days. At certain times, the amount of cash deposited at a bank may exceed the limit on insured deposits. Leases: The Partnership leases certain commercial space to tenants under various lease terms. The leases are accounted for as operating leases in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 13, "Accounting for Leases." Some of the leases contain stated rental increases during their term. For leases with fixed rental increases, rents are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the lease. Cash collections exceeded the straight-line basis of revenue recognition by approximately $43,000 in 1998. The straight- line basis recognized approximately $23,000 more in rental income than was collected in 1997. For all other leases, minimum rents are recognized over the terms of the leases. Investment Properties: Investment properties include three commercial properties and are stated at cost. Acquisition fees are capitalized as a cost of real estate. The Partnership records impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amounts of those assets. Depreciation: Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from five to thirty-nine years for buildings and improvements and related personal property. Deferred Leasing Commission: Leasing commissions are deferred and amortized over the lives of the related leases, which range from one to eleven years. At December 31, 1998 and 1997, deferred leasing commissions totaled approximately $422,000 and $452,000 and accumulated amortization totaled approximately $236,000 and $221,000, respectively. Net Income Allocation: Net income is allocated based on the ratio of each partner's capital contribution to the joint venture. Income Taxes: Taxable income or loss of the Partnership is reported in the income tax returns of its partners. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is made in the financial statements of the Partnership. Reclassification: Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1997 and 1996 balances to conform to the 1998 presentation. NOTE B - MINIMUM FUTURE RENTAL REVENUES Minimum future rental revenues from operating leases having non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year at December 31, 1998, are as follows (in thousands): 1999 $1,891 2000 1,286 2001 712 2002 294 2003 167 Thereafter 7 Total $4,357 Amortization of deferred leasing commissions totaled $80,000, $62,000 and $84,000 for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997, and 1996, respectively.
