MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
There was no rental income or expenses for the three months ended March
31, 1998 as the Partnership had divested itself of all rental
properties by the end of 1995.
Interest income decreased $ 9,724 for the three months ended March 31,
1998, compared to the same period in the prior year, due to the sale of
a note receivable in February, 1997 and the collection of a second note
receivable in October, 1997.
General and administrative expenses decreased $54,554 for the three
months ended March 31, 1998, compared to the same period in the prior
year, due in part to an adjustment in the prior year to accrue
operating expenses incurred by the General Partners in prior years but
which at that point had not yet been repaid. Legal and accounting fees
decreased by $9,000 compared to the same period last year, due in part
to the receipt of an unused retainer paid in the fourth quarter of
1997.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Partnership has met its liquidity needs through cash reserves and
operating income. The Partnership currently has no material commitments
and anticipates that these sources will continue to be adequate to meet
the Partnership's future liquidity needs.
