                    ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY INCOME FUND
                      (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

                        SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BUSINESS

Associated Planners Realty Income Fund (the "Partnership), a California  limited
partnership,  was  formed  on  December  23,  1986  under  the  Revised  Limited
Partnership Act of  the State  of California for  the purpose  of developing  or
acquiring, managing and operating unleveraged income producing real estate.  The
Partnership met  its minimum  funding of  $1,200,000 on  February 26,  1988  and
terminated its offering  on September 5,  1989.  The  Partnership was formed  to
acquire  income-producing  real  property  throughout  the  United  States  with
emphasis on  properties located  in California  and  southwestern states.    The
Partnership purchases such properties  on an all cash  basis and intends to  own
and operate such properties for investment over an anticipated holding period of
approximately five to ten years.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The financial  statements do not give effect to any assets that the partners may
have outside  of  their  interest  in  the  partnership,  nor  to  any  personal
obligations, including income taxes, of the partners.

RENTAL REAL ESTATE AND ESTATE AND DEPRECIATION

Assets are stated  at cost.   Depreciation is computed  using the  straight-line
method over estimated useful lives ranging  from 31.5 to 40 years for  financial
reporting and income tax reporting purposes.

In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the cost of an asset may
be impaired,  an  evaluation  of  recoverability would  be  performed.    If  an
evaluation is required, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows  associated
with the asset would be compared to the carrying amount to determine if a write-
down to market vale is required.

LEASE COMMISSIONS

Lease commissions which are paid to real estate brokers for locating tenants are
capitalized and amortized over the life of the lease.

RENTAL REVENUE

Rental revenue is recognized when the amount is due and payable under the  terms
of a lease agreement.



                     ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY INCOME FUND
                      (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)

                         SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
                                  (CONTINUED)

INVESTMENTS

During 1994, the Partnership changed its  method of accounting for  Investments.
Investments which represent trading securities, are accounted for in  accordance
with SFAS No. 115.  The difference between historical cost and market value  are
reported as unrealized gains or losses in  the statement of income.  The  effect
of this change in accounting policy is not material to the financial statements.

STATEMENTS OF CASH FLOWS

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Partnership considers cash  in
the bank and all highly-liquid investments purchased with original maturities of
three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents.

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 reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

For comparative purposes, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to
conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF PARTNERSHIP BUSINESS

Associated Planners Realty  Income Fund, a  California limited partnership  (the
"Fund"), was formed on December 23,  1986 under the Revised Limited  Partnership
Act of  the State  of California  for the  purpose of  acquiring, managing,  and
operating income-producing real estate.

The Partnership began  accepting subscriptions in  October 1987  and closed  the
offering on September 5, 1989.  The Partnership began operations in March 1988.

Under the terms of the partnership  agreement, the General Partners (West  Coast
Realty  Advisors,  Inc.  and  W.  Thomas  Maudlin  Jr.)  are  entitled  to  cash
distributions from 10% to 15%.   The General Partners  are also entitled to  net
income (loss) allocations  varying from  1% to 15%  and 1%  of depreciation  and
amortization in accordance with the partnership agreement. Further, the  General
Partners receive acquisition fees for locating  and negotiating the purchase  of
rental real  estate,  management  fees  for  operating  the  Partnership  and  a
commission on the sale of the partnership properties.

NOTE 2 - RENTAL REAL ESTATE

The Partnership owns two  rental real estate properties.  The first property is
wholly-owned and the second property is  a 90% undivided interest:

NOTE 2 - RENTAL REAL ESTATE (CONTINUED)

A significant  portion  of the  Partnership's  rental revenue  was  earned  from
tenants whose  individual  rents  represented more  than  10%  of  total  rental
revenue:

            Two tenants accounted for 54% and 10%, respectively, in 1996
            Two tenants accounted for 12% and 53%, respectively, in 1995

NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

      (a)   For Partnership management services rendered to the Partnership, the
General Partner is  entitled to receive  10% of all  distributions of Cash  from
Operations.  These amounts  totaled $5,662 for the  quarter ended September  30,
1996 and $5,662 for the  quarter ended September 30,  1995, and $20,101 for  the
nine months  ended September  30, 1996  and $14,014  for the  nine months  ended

treated as an expense of  the Partnership, while the  amounts paid in 1996  were
treated as distributions of capital to the general partner (see Note 6).

      (b) For administrative services provided to  the Partnership, the General
Partner,  in  accordance  with  the   partnership  agreement,  is  entitled  to
reimbursement for the cost  of certain personnel and  relevant expenses.   These
amounts totaled  $9,000  for  the  nine months  ended  September  30,  1996  and
September 30, 1995  and $3,000 for  the quarters ending  September 30, 1996  and
1995.

Statement of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No.  121.  "Accounting  for  the
Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and for  Long-Lived Assets to  Be Disposed  of"
(SFAS No. 121)  issued by  the Financial  Accounting Standards  Board (FASB)  is
effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1995.  The  new standard establishes  new guidelines  regarding when  impairment
losses on  long-lived assets,  which include  plant and  equipment, and  certain
identifiable intangible assets, should be  recognized and how impairment  losses
should be measured.  The Partnership elected adoption of SFAS No. 121 on January
1, 1996.  This adoption had  no effect on the statement  of income for the  nine
months ended September  30, 1996 as  there were no  impairment amounts  recorded
during the period.

NOTE 6 - REALLOCATION OF PARTNER BALANCES

Per the provisions  of Section 11.1  (V)(ii) of the  Partnership Agreement,  the
General Partner determined that action was  necessary to "cure the  ambiguities"
caused by the  Agreement itself.   The ambiguity involved  the treatment of  the
partnership management fee, being paid to the General Partner, as an expense  of
the Partnership,  when in  fact, it  was recently  determined, that  these  fees
should have been treated as a general  partner withdrawal of capital.  In  order
to properly reflect this  inception to date correction,  a transfer of  $170,030
was made from  the General  Partner's capital  account to  the Limited  Partners
capital account during the quarter ended March 31, 1996.

NOTE 7 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Partnership distributed  $50,960 ($10.00 per  unit) on November  5, 1996  to
Limited Partners as of  September 30, 1996.

On November  1, 1996,  Associated Planners  Realty Income  Fund ("Income  Fund")
purchased the remaining real estate asset from Associated Planners Realty Growth
Fund ("Growth Fund").  This asset consisted of the 10% interest that Income Fund
had not already owned in an  office building located in San Marcos,  California.
This purchase  was done  to increase  the  level of  cash distributions  to  the
limited partners in 1997, and ultimately, increase the value of their investment
in the Partnership.

Income Fund paid $185,968 on November  2, 1996 for the  10% interest in the  San
Marcos property.   This amount consisted  of $188,000 for  the property  itself,
less $2,032 for the  share of a  cash security deposit  from the current  tenant
that Growth Fund retained.  There is no debt in connection with the property.

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
            FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

INTRODUCTION

The Partnership began offering for sale limited partnership units on October 20,
1987.  On February 26, 1988, the Partnership reached its minimum offer level  of
$1,200,000.  The Partnership  sold units throughout the  remainder of the  year,
and had raised  $3,891,000 in gross  proceeds or $3,483,788  net of  syndication
costs and  sales  commissions  as  of  December 31,  1988.    During  1989,  the
Partnership continued to raise  funds through the sale  of Units and had  raised
$5,106,000 in gross proceeds  or $4,594,101 net of  syndication costs and  sales
commissions as of  September 5,  1989, the  day the  Partnership terminated  its
offering of limited partnership units.

The Partnership was  organized for  the purpose  of investing  in, holding,  and
managing improved,  leveraged  income-producing property,  such  as  residential
property, office  buildings, commercial  buildings, industrial  properties,  and
shopping centers.  The  Partnership intends to own  and operate such  properties
for investment over an anticipated holding  period of approximately five to  ten
years.

The Partnership's principal investment objectives are  to invest in rental  real
estate properties which will:

      (1)   Preserve and protect the Partnership's invested capital;

      (2)   Provide for cash distributions from operations;

      (3)   Provide gains through potential appreciation; and

      (4) Generate Federal income tax deductions so that during the early years
          of property  operations,  a  portion  of  cash  distributions may  be
          treated as a return  of capital for tax  purposes and, therefore, may
          not represent taxable income to the limited partners.

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
            FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
            (CONTINUED)

The ownership and operation  of any income-producing real estate is  subject to
those risks  inherent in  all real  estate investments,  including national  and
local  economic  conditions,  the  supply  and  demand  for  similar  types   of
properties, competitive marketing conditions, zoning changes, possible  casualty
losses,  increases in real estate taxes, assessments, and operating expenses, as
well as others.

The Partnership is operated  by West Coast Realty  Advisors, Inc. ("WCRA")  (the
corporate General Partner) and Mr. W. Thomas Maudlin Jr. (an individual  General
Partner), collectively  the  "General Partner,"  subject  to the  terms  of  the
Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited  Partnership.  The Partnership has  no
employees, and all administrative services are  provided by WCRA, the  corporate
General Partner.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On February 6, May 6, and August 6, 1996, the Partnership made distributions  to
the limited partners totaling $63,700, $66,248  and $50,904 ($12.50, $13.00  and
$10.00  per  unit),  of  which   approximately  $14,700,  $17,248  and   $14,491
constituted a return of capital  to the unit holders  of record at December  31,
1995, March  31,  1996  and  June 30,  1996  respectively.    Distributions  are
determined by management based  on cash flow and  the liquidity position of  the
Partnership and anticipated occupancy of the properties.  It is the intention of
management to make quarterly  distributions of cash,  subject to maintenance  of
reasonable reserves.

Management uses cash as its primary  measure of a partnership's liquidity.   The
amount of cash  that represents  adequate liquidity  for a  real estate  limited
partnership depends on several factors.  Among them are:

      1.    Relative risk of the partnership;
      2.    Condition of the partnership's properties;
      3.    Stage in the partnership's life cycle (e.g., money-raising,
            acquisition, operating or disposition phase); and
      4.    Distribution to partners

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
            FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
            (CONTINUED)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)

The Partnership has adequate  liquidity based upon the  above four points.   The
first point  refers to  the approximately  1%  property reserve  requirement  of
capital funds raised  that the Partnership  currently has;  this relatively  low
reserve level  is  appropriate since  all  Partnership properties  are  acquired
without the  use  of debt  financing.   This  is  a minimum  guideline  that  is
disclosed in the Partnership's prospectus; the Partnership had more than  enough
funds to  meet this  requirement as  of  September 30,  1996.   Related  to  the
property reserve  requirement  is  the  second point  -  the  condition  of  the
Partnership's properties.    Since the  properties  are in  good  condition,  no
unusual maintenance and repair expenditures are anticipated.  The third point is
relevant to the Partnership because after  the January 1990 purchase of the  San
Marcos property,  the  Partnership  had completed  its  acquisition  phase,  and
entered the operating phase.  The fourth point relates to partner distributions.
The  Partnership   makes  distributions   from  operations   quarterly.     Such
distributions are  subject to  payment of  Partnership expenses  and  reasonable
reserves for expenses, maintenance, and replacements.

During the nine months ended September 30, 1996 the Partnership paid the General
Partner a partnership management fee of $14,476 and distributed $180,852 to  the
limited partners  of  which  $57,271  constituted a  return  of  capital.    The
partnership management fee  distribution to the  general partner was  calculated
and paid in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.

The Tax Reform Acts of 1986 and 1987 and the Revenue Reconciliation Acts of 1990
and 1993 did not have a material impact on the Partnership's operations.

The effects of  the slowdown  in the  economy's growth,  inflation and  changing
prices have not had a material  impact on the Partnership's revenues and  income
from operations. During the years  of the Partnership's existence,  inflationary
pressures in the U.S.  economy have been minimal,  and this has been  consistent
with the  experience of  the  Partnership in  operating  rental real  estate  in
California.   The  Partnership  has  several clauses  in  the  leases  with  its
properties' tenants that  would help alleviate  much of the  negative impact  of
inflation.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Operations for the nine  months ended September 30,  1996 and 1995 reflect  full
quarters of rental activities  for the Partnership's  properties.  However,  the
San Marcos property was not leased  from January 8 to  February 12, 1995.   This
was due to vacancy at the property  between the time that the Professional  Care
Products (previous tenant)  lease terminated and  the No  Fear (current  tenant)
lease began.  In addition to the vacancy at the property, the lease rate that No
Fear entered into  was approximately 30%  less than the  rate that  Professional
Care Products was paying during  its tenancy.  The  occupancy rate at the  Yorba
Center Shopping Center was at 100% as of September 30, 1996 (as compared to  90%
at September 30, 1995).   The increased occupancy  at the Yorba Center  Shopping
Center, offset by  the drop  in rental  rates at  the San  Marcos property,  was
responsible for a 5.5% ($15,844) increase in rental revenue for the nine  months
ended September 30,  1996 as  compared to the  nine months  ended September  30,
1995.

Operating expenses decreased  5.2% ($2,197) as  the result of  less repairs  and
maintenance costs at the Yorba Center Shopping Center property.  The Partnership
also experienced a 49.7% decrease in general and administrative costs  ($29,293)
due to lower  insurance costs and  lower legal &  accounting expenses.  Interest
income increased $4,305 due  to larger cash  reserve balances maintained  during
the first nine months of 1996 as compared to the first nine months of 1995.

Overall, the Partnership  generated $197,246  in income  from operations  before
depreciation expense of $73,665  for the nine months  ended September 30,  1996.
This compares favorably  to 1995 when  income from  operations totaled  $174,252
before depreciation of $73,557 and gain on government securities of $3,089.  Net
income per limited partnership unit rose from $15.94 in 1995 to $20.52 in  1996.
The number of limited partnership units outstanding in each period was 5,096.

            FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
            (CONTINUED)

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONT.)

In 1994, the Partnership purposely started reducing the amount of  distributions
to investors  in anticipation  of  lower rental  revenues  from the  San  Marcos
property.  Up until January 1995, it was not clear to the General Partner as  to
what rent, if any,  could be realized on  an ongoing basis  from the San  Marcos
Property.  Distributions to limited partners fell from a high of $47.50 per unit
in 1993, to $43.75 in 1994, to $37.16 in 1995.   With the placement of a  tenant
in the San Marcos Building (No Fear, Inc.) and the build-up of a track record of
rent collections from  the tenant,  the general partner  now feels  it would  be
prudent to make cash distributions to  limited partners so that a large  portion
of the large cash balance is gradually paid out (contingent upon maintenance  of
reasonable reserve  levels).   Therefore, distributions  are expected  to  total
between $40.00 and $45.00 per unit for 1996.

In addition, the Partnership was planning to purchase the 10% portion of the San
Marcos Building that it does not already own.  This purchase was contemplated in
order to increase  the level of  cash distributions to  the limited partners  in
1997, and ultimately, increase the value of their investment in the Partnership.
This purchase did take place in November 1996, and $185,968 in cash was used  to
purchase the 10% interest.   In order to facilitate  the purchase , the  general
partner anticipates that  cash distributions  will remain  at a  lower level  of
$10.00 per unit through February 1997.

            (CONTINUED)

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONT.)

During the nine months ended September  30, 1996, $184,379 in cash was  provided
by operating activities.  This resulted  primarily from a net cash basis  income
of $197,246  from  operations (net  income  plus depreciation  expense).  These
amounts were offset by  a $4,455 increase  in other assets  (primarily due to  a
increase in  rent  receivable),  and  a  $8,667  decrease  in  accounts  payable
(primarily due to a  decrease in the  amount of trade  payables).  In  contrast,
during the nine months ended September 30, 1995,  $127,136 in cash was  provided
by operating activities.   This resulted  from a cash  basis income of  $171,163
(net income with depreciation  expense added back).   These operating cash  flow
additions were offset  by a  $28,347 increase in  other assets  (due to  prepaid
leasing costs paid in connection  with the new tenant,  No Fear, Inc.) a  $1,991
decrease in  accounts  payable  (attributable to  a  normal  decrease  in  trade
accounts payable), a $6,192 increase in  an investment in government  securities
(due to  re-invested interest  from government  securities holdings),  a  $3,089
unrealized gain  in  government  securities  and  $4,408  decrease  in  security
deposits (due to a lower security deposit received from the new tenant, No Fear,
Inc. compared to the previous tenant, Professional Care Product).  There were no
investing activities  for  the  nine months  ended  September  30, 1996.      In
contrast, $10,000 in investing  activities was used  for tenant improvements  on
the San Marcos property during the nine  months ended September 30, 1995.   Cash
used in financing activities totaled $200,953 due to $180,852 distributed to the
limited partners and $20,101 distributed to the general partner for  partnership
management fees during the nine months  ended September 30, 1996.  In  contrast,
$126,289 in financing activities was used for distributions to limited  partners
during the nine months ended September 30, 1995.

The area in  which Yorba Center  operates continues to  experience a  relatively
high level  of economic  vitality,  and the  General  Partner does  not  foresee
significant challenges in keeping the center occupied by various small retailers
and service businesses.

The Partnership anticipates continuing to operate properties during 1996 for the
purpose of generating the maximum amount  of cash available for distribution  to
the limited partners,  while maintaining a  reasonable level  of cash  reserves.
There are currently no plans to dispose of either of the two properties.
