                       (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)
                         SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BUSINESS

Associated Planners Realty Fund (the "Partnership"), a California limited
partnership, was formed on November 19, 1985 under the Revised Limited
Partnership Act of the State of California. The Partnership was formed to
acquire income-producing real property throughout the United States with an
emphasis on properties located in California and the southwestern states. The
Partnership purchased these properties on an all cash basis or on a moderately
leveraged basis and intended on owning and operating such properties for
investment over an anticipated holding period of approximately five to ten
years.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated 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 DEPRECIATION

Assets are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line
method over estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 40 years.

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 value is required.

RENTAL INCOME

Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis to the extent that rental
revenue is deemed collectible and collection is probable.

STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS

For the 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.

                         SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES


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.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income," ("SFAS 130") establishes standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose
financial statements. Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all
changes to Partners' equity except those due to investments by owners and
distribution to owners. The Partnership does not have any components of
comprehensive income for each of the three months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000.

NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT

Net income per limited partnership unit is calculated by dividing the limited
partners share of net income by the weighted average number of limited
partnership units outstanding for the period.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Effective January 1, 2001, the Partnership adopted the requirements of Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities",
as amended by SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities -- Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133", and
SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging
Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement 133", and supplemented by
implementation guidance issued by FASB's Derivative Implementation Group. SFAS
No. 133 requires, among other things, that all derivatives be recognized as
either assets or liabilities and measured at estimated fair value. The
corresponding derivative gains and losses should be reported based upon the
hedge relationship, if such a relationship exists. Changes in the estimated fair
value of derivatives that are not designated as hedges or that do not meet the
hedge accounting criteria in SFAS No. 133 are required to be reported in income.
Implementation of SFAS No. 133, as amended, did not have a material impact on
the Partnership's financial statements.

INTRODUCTION

Associated Planners Realty Fund (the "Partnership") was organized in November
1985, under the California Revised Limited Partnership Act. The Partnership
began offering units for sale on March 28, 1986. As of December 27, 1987, the
Partnership had raised $7,499,000 in gross capital contributions. The
Partnership netted approximately $6,720,000 after sales commissions and

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 intended 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.

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.

        FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

INTRODUCTION (CONTINUED)

The Partnership is operated by 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 West Coast Realty
Advisors, Inc., the General Partner.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 VS. THREE MONTHS
ENDED MARCH 31, 2000

Operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2001, reflect the operations of the
Partnership's remaining property Shaw Villa Shopping Center. In contrast the
quarter ending March 31, 2000 also includes the operations of the Simi Valley
property prior to its sale on February 4, 2000.

Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 of $25,536 was lower than the
net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 of $284,865 primarily as a
result of the $291,151 gain on sale of the Simi Valley property in February
2000.

Rental revenue of $90,553 for the quarter ended March 31, 2001 increased $15,565
(20.76%) from the quarter ended March 31, 2000 due to higher base rents on the
leases contracts for the Shaw Villa Shopping Center. Due to the vacancy of the
Simi Valley property and its subsequent sale in February 2000, the Shaw Villa
Shopping Center was the only income producing property for both these quarters.
Interest income increased $13,531 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as
compared to the three months ended March 31, 2000 primarily due to interest
income on the note receivable received in connection with the sale of the Simi
Valley property.

Operating expenses, property taxes, and property management fees decreased
$7,295 (25.70%) for the quarter ending March 31, 2001, compared to the quarter
ending March 31, 2000, primarily due to the sale of the Simi Valley property in
February 2000. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $4,612 (20.95%)
because fewer properties were owned during the quarter ended March 31, 2001.
Interest expense increased $9,722 (45.70%) for the quarter ending March 31,
2001, compared to the quarter ending March 31, 2000, primarily due the timing of
the accrual for interest payable in the quarter ending March 31, 2000.

The Partnership generated $42,942 in income from operations before depreciation
expense of $17,406 for the quarter ended March 31, 2001. In contrast cash basis
income for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 was $15,732 before depreciation
expense of $22,018 and $291,151 gain from the sale of the Simi Valley property.
Net income per limited partnership unit for the quarter decreased from $31.98 in
2000 to $2.86 in 2000. The number of limited partnership units outstanding in
each quarter was 7,499.

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


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Partnership made distributions
to the limited partners totaling $37,495 of which $16,079 constituted a return
of capital. During the three months ended March 31, 2000, the Partnership made
no distributions to the general and limited partners. Proceeds from the sale of
the Simi Valley property were distributed in a special cash dividend to holders
of units as of March 15, 2000 in April 2000. Management uses cash as its primary
measure of the Partnership's liquidity. The amount of cash that represents
adequate liquidity for a real estate limited partnership, in the short-term and
long-term, 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.  Distributions to partners.

The Partnership believes that it has the ability to generate sufficient cash to
meet both short-term and long-term liquidity needs, based upon the above four
factors.

The first factor refers to the risk of Partnership's investments. The
Partnership's investments in properties were paid for in cash or on a moderately
leveraged basis.

The second factor relates to the condition of the Partnership's property. The
Partnership's property is in good condition. There is no foreseeable need to
increase reserves to fund deferred or unusual maintenance and repair
expenditures.

The third factor relates to life cycle. The Partnership completed its funding,
acquisition and operating stages of properties in previous years. The
Partnership is in the disposition stage. As part of the disposition stage, the
Partnership has listed its remaining property for sale.

The fourth factor relates to Partnership distributions. The Partnership is
currently making semi-annual distributions from operations. Such distributions
are subject to payments of Partnership expenses and reasonable reserves for
expenses, maintenance, and replacements. In addition, at least six months of
cash profits are left in the Partnership's balance sheet at each quarter end,
since the Partnership makes distributions to the limited partners one month
after each record date of June 30, and December 31. The General Partner believes
that the Partnership will have the ability to meet its cash requirements in both
the short-term and long-term.

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

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)

Slowdowns in the economy, inflation and changing prices have had a nominal
effect on the Partnership's revenues and income from continuing operations.
During the fourteen 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 General Partner is attempting to sell the remaining property owned by the
Partnership. Once the Shaw Villa Shopping Center is sold and the note receivable
taken in connection with the sale of the Simi Valley property is liquidated, the
net proceeds will be distributed to the limited and general partners in
accordance with the partnership agreement, and the partnership will then be
terminated and dissolved. There is no assurance that the remaining property will
be sold and the partnership will be liquidated during 2001. The financial
statements do not contain any adjustments that might result from the liquidation
of the partnership.

CASH FLOWS -- THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 VS. THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,
2000

Cash resources increased $23,576 during the three months ended March 31, 2001
compared to a $498,628 increase in cash resources for the three months ended
March 31, 2000. The three months ended March 31, 2001 provided $48,100 in cash
from operating activities with the largest contributor being $25,536 in net
income and $17,406 in depreciation. In contrast, the three months ended March
31, 2000 provided $15,731 in cash from operating activities due primarily to
$284,865 in net income and $22,018 in depreciation, offset by $291,151 resulting
from the gain on the sale of the Simi Valley property. Investing activities
resulted in a $22,679 increase in cash resources during the three months ending
March 31, 2001, due to principal repayments on the note receivable. Investing
activities resulted in a $491,742 increase in cash resources during the three
months ended March 31, 2000, primarily due to cash proceeds from the sale of the
Simi Valley property. For the three months ended March 31, 2001 financing
activities used $47,203 because of distributions to limited partners totaling
$37,495 and repayments on notes payable of $9,708. Cash from financing
activities used $8,845 during the three months ended March 31, 2000 due to
principal repayments on notes payable.
