NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENT
- ---------------------------------------------------
ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
- ---------------------------------------------------
Atlas-Energy for the Nineties-Public 5 Ltd. (the "Partnership"), is a
Pennsylvania limited partnership which includes Atlas Resources, Inc.
("Atlas"), of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, as Managing General Partner and
Operator, and 378 other investors as either Limited Partners or Investor
General Partners. The Partnership was funded to drill and operate gas wells
located primarily in Mercer County, Pennsylvania.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ----------------------------------------------
Financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.
The Partnership proposes to use the successful efforts method of
accounting for oil and gas producing activities. Costs to acquire mineral
interests in oil and gas properties and to drill and equip wells are
capitalized.
Capitalized costs are to be expensed at unit cost rates calculated
annually based on the estimated volume of recoverable gas and the related
costs.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
- ----------------------
The Partnership is not treated as a taxable entity for federal income tax
purposes. Any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit flows through
to the partners as though each partner had incurred such item directly. As a
result, each partner must take into account his pro rata share of all items of
partnership income and deductions in computing his federal income tax
liability. Many provisions of the federal income tax laws are complex and
subject to various interpretations.
