1.  Summary of significant accounting policies:

Interim financial statements:

The unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in
the opinion of the general partners,  necessary to a fair statement of financial
position and results of operations for the interim periods  presented.  All such
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  These unaudited interim financial
statements  should be read in  conjunction  with the most recent  report on Form
10K.


2. Organization and partnership matters:

ATEL Cash Distribution Fund V, L.P. (the Partnership), was formed under the laws
of the State of California  on September 23, 1992,  for the purpose of acquiring
equipment to engage in equipment leasing and sales activities.  Contributions in
the  aggregate  of $600 were  received  as of  October  6,  1992,  $100 of which
represented  the  General  Partner's  continuing  interest,  and  $500 of  which
represented the Initial Limited Partners' capital investment.

Upon the sale of the  minimum  amount of Units of Limited  Partnership  interest
(Units) of $1,200,000 and the receipt of the proceeds thereof on March 19, 1993,
the Partnership commenced operations.  The Partnership or the General Partner on
behalf of the Partnership, will incur costs in connection with the organization,
registration  and issuance of the Units.  The amount of such costs to be born by
the Partnership is limited by certain provisions in the Partnership Agreement.

As of  November  15,  1994,  the  Partnership  had  received  subscriptions  for
12,500,000 Limited  Partnership Units  ($125,000,000) in addition to the Initial
Limited  Partners' 50 Units.  Of those  Units,  12,497,000  ($124,970,000)  were
issued and outstanding as of March 31, 1998.

The Partnership  does not make a provision for income taxes since all income and
losses will be allocated to the Partners for inclusion in their  individual  tax
returns.

5.  Related party transactions:

The terms of the Limited Partnership  Agreement provide that the General Partner
and/or   Affiliates   are  entitled  to  receive   certain  fees  for  equipment
acquisition, management and resale and for management of the Partnership.

The Limited Partnership Agreement allows for the reimbursement of costs incurred
by the General Partner in providing  administrative services to the Partnership.
Administrative  services  provided  include  Partnership  accounting,   investor
relations,  legal  counsel and lease and  equipment  documentation.  The General
Partner  is not  reimbursed  for  services  where it is  entitled  to  receive a
separate  fee as  compensation  for  such  services,  such  as  acquisition  and
management of equipment.  Reimbursable costs incurred by the General Partner are
allocated  to the  Partnership  based upon  actual time  incurred  by  employees
working on Partnership  business and an allocation of rent and other costs based
on utilization studies.

Substantially  all  employees  of the General  Partner  record time  incurred in
performing administrative services on behalf of all of the Partnerships serviced
by the General  Partner.  The General Partner believes that the costs reimbursed
are the lower of (i) actual costs incurred on behalf of the  Partnership or (ii)
the amount the  Partnership  would be  required to pay  independent  parties for
comparable  administrative  services  in the same  geographic  location  and are
reimbursable in accordance with the Limited Partnership Agreement.

The  General   Partner   and/or   Affiliates   earned  fees,   commissions   and
reimbursements, pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement as follows:

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                 MARCH 31, 1998
                                   (Unaudited)


6. Partner's capital:

As of March 31, 1998,  12,500,000 Units of Limited  Partnership (Units) interest
were issued and  outstanding  (in addition to the 50 Units issued to the initial
Limited Partners). The Partnership is authorized to issue up to 12,500,000 Units
in addition to those issued to the initial Limited Partners.

The  Partnership's  Net Profits,  Net Losses and Tax Credits are to be allocated
99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner.

As more  fully  described  in the  Partnership  Agreement,  available  Cash from
Operations and Cash from Sales or Refinancing shall be distributed as follows:

     First, 5% of  Distributions  of Cash from Operations to the General Partner
as Incentive Management Fees.

     Second, the balance to the Limited Partners until the Limited Partners have
          received aggregate  Distributions,  as defined,  in an amount equal to
          their  Original  Invested  Capital,  as defined,  plus a 10% per annum
          cumulative  (compounded  daily)  return  on  their  Adjusted  Invested
          Capital, as defined.

     Third,  the General Partner will receive as Incentive  Management Fees, the
following:

           (A) 10% of remaining  Cash from  Operations,  as defined,  

           (B) 15% of remaining Cash from Sales or Refinancing, as defined.

     Fourth, the balance to the Limited Partners.


7.  Line of credit:

The  Partnership  participates  with the  General  Partner  and  certain  of its
Affiliates in a $90,000,000 revolving credit agreement with a group of financial
institutions  which  expires on October  28,  1998.  The  agreement  includes an
acquisition  facility and a warehouse  facility which are used to provide bridge
financing  for  assets  on  leases.  Draws on the  acquisition  facility  by any
individual  borrower  are  secured  only by that  borrower's  assets,  including
equipment and related leases.  Borrowings on the warehouse facility are recourse
jointly to certain of the Affiliates, the Partnership and the General Partner.

The Partnership had no borrowings under the agreement during 1998.

The credit agreement  includes certain  financial  covenants  applicable to each
borrower.  The  Partnership was in compliance with its covenants as of March 31,
1998.








Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Capital Resources and Liquidity

In 1998 and 1997, the  Partnership's  primary source of cash was operating lease
rents. The liquidity of the Partnership  will vary in the future,  increasing to
the extent cash flows from leases and proceeds from asset sales exceed expenses,
and decreasing as lease assets are acquired,  as  distributions  are made to the
limited  partners and to the extent  expenses  exceed cash flows from leases and
proceeds from sales of assets.

As another source of liquidity, the Partnership has contractual obligations with
a diversified group of lessees for fixed lease terms at fixed rental amounts. As
the  initial  lease  terms  expire the  Partnership  will  re-lease  or sell the
equipment.  The future  liquidity  beyond the  contractual  minimum rentals will
depend on the General  Partner's  success in re-leasing or selling the equipment
as it comes off lease.

The  Partnership  participates  with the  General  Partner  and  certain  of its
affiliates  in  a  $90,000,000   revolving  line  of  credit  with  a  financial
institution. The line of credit expires on October 28, 1998.

The Partnership  anticipates reinvesting a portion of lease payments from assets
owned in new leasing  transactions.  Such reinvestment will occur only after the
payment  of  all  obligations,   including  debt  service  (both  principal  and
interest), the payment of management and acquisition fees to the General Partner
and providing for cash distributions to the Limited Partners.

The Partnership currently has available adequate reserves to meet contingencies,
but in the event those  reserves were found to be  inadequate,  the  Partnership
would  likely be in a position to borrow  against its current  portfolio to meet
such  requirements.  The General  Partner  envisions  no such  requirements  for
operating purposes.

As of March 31, 1997, the Partnership had borrowed $58,317,911 on a non-recourse
basis with  remaining  unpaid  balances  of  $37,737,922.  Borrowings  are to be
generally  non-recourse  to the  Partnership,  that is, the only recourse of the
lender  upon a default  by the  lessee on the  underlying  lease  will be to the
equipment or  corresponding  lease acquired with the loan proceeds.  The General
Partner  expects that aggregate  borrowings in the future will not exceed 40% of
aggregate  equipment  cost. In any event,  the Agreement of Limited  Partnership
limits such borrowings to 40% of the total cost of equipment, in aggregate.

No  commitments  of capital  have been or are expected to be made other than for
the acquisition of additional  equipment.  As of March 31, 1998, the Partnership
had no such commitments.

If  inflation  in the general  economy  becomes  significant,  it may affect the
Partnership  inasmuch as the residual  (resale) values and rates on re-leases of
the  Partnership's  leased  assets may  increase as the costs of similar  assets
increase.  However,  the  Partnership's  revenues from existing leases would not
increase,  as such rates are generally fixed for the terms of the leases without
adjustment for inflation.

If interest rates increase  significantly,  the lease rates that the Partnership
can obtain on future  leases will be expected to increase as the cost of capital
is a significant  factor in the pricing of lease  financing.  Leases  already in
place, for the most part, would not be affected by changes in interest rates.




Cash Flows

In both 1998 and 1997, the  Partnership's  primary  operating source of cash was
revenues from operating leases.  Operating lease revenues decreased by $323,229,
primarily as a result of sales of operating lease assets over the last year.

In 1998 and 1997,  the  Partnership's  primary  sources  of cash from  investing
activities were rents on direct financing and leveraged leases (accounted for as
reductions in the net  investment in such leases) and proceeds from the sales of
lease  assets.  Cash  was  used in  investing  activities  for the  purchase  of
operating lease assets and direct financing lease assets. Cash flows from direct
financing increased from 1997 due to amortization of direct financing leases and
the consequent  change in the allocation of the rents under those leases between
revenues and these financing cash flows.

In 1998 and 1997, the single largest  financing use of cash was distributions to
limited partners.  The amount of such distributions  increased from 1997 to 1998
due to an  increase  in the  per  Unit  distribution  rate.  Distributions  from
operations in the fourth  quarter of 1996  (distributed  in the first quarter of
1997) were less than the amounts  distributed in the first quarter of 1998 (from
1997 fourth quarter operations).

As the Partnership pays down its non-recourse debt (through scheduled payments),
a larger portion of each payment is allocated to reduce the outstanding balance.
As a result of this and additional  borrowings in 1997, the amounts of cash used
to repay debt has increased compared to 1997.


Results of operations

Operations  resulted in net income of  $940,438 in 1998  compared to $718,604 in
1997. The  Partnership's  primary  source of revenues is from operating  leases.
This is  expected  to remain  true in future  periods.  Depreciation  expense is
related to  operating  lease  assets and is the  single  largest  expense of the
Partnership.  It is expected  to remain so in future  periods.  Operating  lease
revenues and  depreciation  expense have both  decreased as a result of sales of
operating  lease assets over the previous  twelve months.  Equipment  management
fees are based on the Partnership's rental revenues and are expected to decrease
in relation to expected  decreases in the  Partnership's  revenues  from leases.
Incentive  management fees are based on the levels of  distributions  to limited
partners.  Management  fees have not  changed  significantly  compared  to 1997.
Interest  expense is  expected to decrease  significantly  in future  periods as
scheduled debt payments reduce the balances of non-recourse debt.
