========= ========= =========
The Partnership is in its liquidation period as defined in the Partnership
Agreement and, as expected, the Partnership is not purchasing additional
equipment, initial leases are expiring and the amount of equipment being
remarketed (i.e., re-leased, renewed, or sold) will increase. As a result, both
the size of the Partnership's leasing portfolio and the amount of leasing
revenue are declining.
LEASING MARGIN
Leasing margin consists of the following:

LEASING MARGIN, continued
The components of leasing margin have declined and are expected to decline
further due to portfolio run-off.
The ultimate rate of return on leases depends, in part, on interest rates at the
time the leases are originated, as well as future equipment values and on-going
lessee creditworthiness. Because leasing is an alternative to financing
equipment purchases with debt, lease rates tend to rise and fall with interest
rates (although lease rate movements generally lag interest rate changes in the
capital markets).
EQUIPMENT SALES MARGIN
Equipment sales margin consists of the following:
Three Months Ended
March 31,
-----------------------------
1998 1997
----------- -------------
Equipment sales revenue $ 740,425 $ 1,257,201
Cost of equipment sales (347,763) (1,129,707)
----------- -----------
Equipment sales margin $ 392,662 $ 127,494
=========== ===========
The Partnership is in it's liquidation period (as defined in the Partnership
Agreement). Currently, a portion of the Partnership's initial leases are
expiring and equipment is being remarketed (i.e., re-leased or sold to the
original lessee or third parties). Equipment sales margin increased as the
Partnership was successful in realizing amounts on equipment greater than their
net book values.
INTEREST INCOME
Interest income decreased due to a decrease in cash available for investment as
the Partnership is in liquidation and therefore distributing excess cash to the
partners.

- ---------------------
PROVISION FOR LOSSES
The remarketing of equipment for an amount greater than its book value is
reported with equipment sales margin (if the equipment is sold) or leasing
margin (if the equipment is re-leased). The realization of less than the
carrying value of equipment (which is typically not known until remarketing
subsequent to the initial lease termination has occurred) is recorded as
provision for losses.
Residual values are established equal to the estimated value to be received from
the equipment following termination of the lease. In estimating such values, the
Partnership considers all relevant facts regarding the equipment and the lessee,
including, for example, the likelihood that the lessee will re-lease the
equipment. The nature of the Partnership's leasing activities is that it has
credit and residual value exposure and, accordingly, in the ordinary course of
business, it will incur losses from those exposures. The Partnership performs
ongoing quarterly assessments of its assets to identify other-than-temporary
losses.
The provision for losses recorded for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and
for the same period in 1997 was primarily related to lessees returning equipment
to the Partnership. The Partnership had previously expected to realize the
carrying value of this equipment through lease renewals and proceeds from the
sales of equipment to the original lessees. The fair market value of the
equipment re-leased or sold to a third party was less than anticipated.
EXPENSES
Management fees paid to the general partner decreased primarily as a result of
portfolio run-off.
Direct services from the general partner and general and administrative expenses
decreased primarily due to a decrease in administrative costs for the
remarketing of warehoused equipment.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Partnership funds its operating activities principally with cash from rents,
non-recourse debt, interest income and sales of off-lease equipment. Available
cash and cash reserves of the Partnership are invested in interest bearing cash
accounts and short-term U.S. Government securities pending distributions to the
partners.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations, continued
Liquidity and Capital Resources, continued
- -------------------------------
During the three months ended March 31, 1998, the Partnership declared
distributions to the partners of $1,909,232 ($71,382 of which was paid during
April 1998). The Partnership is in its liquidation period (as defined in the
Partnership Agreement) and distributions during the liquidation period will vary
based upon cash availability. All distributions are expected to be a return of
capital for economic purposes.
The general partner currently anticipates that the Partnership will generate
cash flow from operations and equipment sales during the remainder of 1998
which, when added to cash and cash equivalents on hand, should provide
sufficient cash to enable the Partnership to meet its current operating
requirements.
The Class B limited partner distributions of cash from operations are
subordinated to the Class A limited partners receiving distributions of cash
from operations, as scheduled in the Partnership Agreement (i.e., 13%).
Therefore, because of the anticipated decrease in distributions to the Class A
limited partners, CAII, the sole Class B limited partner, ceased receiving
distributions of cash from operations as of August 1997. The general partner
believes these cumulative distributions will be paid when the proceeds from the
sale of certain equipment become available for distribution. Such proceeds are
currently recorded in accounts receivable.
