NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Management Representation
These financial statements should be read in the context of the
financial statements and notes thereto filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission in the Partnership's 1994 annual report on Form 10-K.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial
statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
items, necessary to present fairly the financial position of the C&K 1981
Fund-B, Ltd. at June 30, 1995, the results of operations for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, and the partners' capital
(deficit) and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.
The results of operations for the three months and six months ended June
30, 1995 should not necessarily be taken as indicative of the results of
operations that may be expected for the entire year 1995.
Organization
The C&K 1981 Fund-B, Ltd. (the "Partnership"), a Texas Limited
Partnership, was organized on December 16, 1980, to acquire, explore,
develop and operate onshore oil and gas properties in the United States and
commenced operations on June 1, 1981. Total initial Limited Partner
contributions were $9,332,500 including $100,000 contributed by C&K
Petroleum, Inc. ("C&K"), the initial General Partner. On September 15,
1982, C&K requested the Limited Partners to pay an additional assessment of
25% of their initial contributions. Additional contributions received from
Limited Partners were $2,333,125 with C&K paying the additional assessments
for 209 Limited Partners who declined to pay their share of the additional
assessments ("Nonconsenting Limited Partners"). Nonconsenting Limited
Partners are subject to a penalty in an amount equal to 300% of the
additional assessment paid by the General Partner.
Effective November 18, 1992, Ultramar Oil and Gas Limited ("UOGL"), an
indirect wholly owned subsidiary of LASMO plc, was sold to Williams-Cody
Limited Liability Company ("WCLLC"), a Wyoming limited liability company
owned by Williams Gas Management Company ("WGMan") and Cody Resources, Inc.
("CRI"). On January 1, 1993, UOGL changed its name to Williams-Cody, Inc.
("Williams-Cody").
Effective May 1, 1993, Cody Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of The
Gates Corporation, purchased the units of WCLLC owned by Williams Gas
Management Company. As a result of this acquisition, the unit holders of
WCLLC are Cody Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Cody Resources,
Inc. Subsequently, effective May 15, 1993, the name of Williams-Cody, Inc.
has been changed to CODY ENERGY, INC. ("CODY"), and the name of Williams-
Cody Limited Liability Company has been changed to Gates-Cody Energy
Company, a Limited Liability Company ("GCEC"). CODY is the surviving
corporation and, pursuant to the authority provided in the Partnership
Agreement manages and controls the Partnership's affairs and is responsible
for the activities of the Partnership.
CODY is currently considering either transferring its limited partner
and general partner interests in the Partnership, or withdrawing as general
partner of the Partnership or taking other actions to reduce its
responsibilities in the Partnership which could lead to the ultimate
dissolution of the Partnership. GCEC intends to, if necessary, advance
funds required by the Partnership in excess of those generated by
operations through CODY.
Basis of Accounting
The accounts of the Partnership are maintained on the accrual basis in
accordance with accounting practices permitted for federal income tax
reporting purposes. In order to present the accompanying financial
statements on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles for
financial reporting purposes, adjustments have been made to account for oil
and gas properties under the full cost method of accounting.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash is invested in a money market savings account.
Oil and Gas Properties
The Partnership uses the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas
properties in accordance with rules prescribed by the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Under this method, all costs incurred in
connection with the exploration for and development of oil and gas reserves
are capitalized. Such capitalized costs include lease acquisition,
geological and geophysical work, delay rentals, drilling, completing and
equipping oil and gas wells and other related costs together with costs
applicable to CODY's technical personnel directly engaged in evaluating and
maintaining oil and gas prospects and drilling oil and gas wells.
Maintenance and repairs are charged against income when incurred. Renewals
and betterments which extend the useful life of properties are capitalized.
The capitalized costs of all oil and gas properties are depleted on a
composite units-of-revenue method computed on a future gross revenue
basis. An additional depletion provision is made if the total capitalized
costs of oil and gas properties exceed the "capitalization ceiling"
which is calculated as the present value of future net revenues from
estimated production of the Partnership's proved oil and gas reserves as
furnished by independent petroleum engineers.
Future gross revenues have been estimated using rules prescribed by the
SEC. Under these rules, year-end prices are utilized in determining future
gross revenues.
The capitalization ceiling is computed for the first three quarters of
the year by (i) adjusting the previous year-end present value of future net
revenues for the accretion of discount, production, and revisions to
reserve estimates, if any, and (ii) revising the resultant valuation of
future net revenues to incorporate prices and volumes at the financial
statement date.
Net Income (Loss) per Limited Partnership Unit
Net income (loss) per Limited Partnership unit is computed by obtaining
the Limited Partners net income (loss) (see Statements of Partners' Capital
(Deficit)) and dividing by the total Limited Partnership units outstanding.
Contributions and Distributions
Contributions by the General Partner, as presented in the Statements of
Partners' Capital (Deficit), represent amounts paid by the General Partner
for its allocated share of the Partnership's costs and expenses.
Distributions to the General Partner represent amounts collected by the
General Partner for its allocated share of the Partnership's revenues.
Distributions to Limited Partners represent periodic payments of available
cash, as determined in accordance with the terms of the Partnership
Agreement.
Distributions Payable
There were no distributions payable to the Limited Partners as of June
30, 1995 or 1994.
Payable to the General Partner
The long-term payable to the General Partner is the Nonconsenting
Limited Partners' obligation to the General Partner for their share of
costs, arising from partnership operations, which are funded entirely by
the General Partner. The current portion of the liability is the amount
estimated to be collectible from the Nonconsenting Limited Partners' net
operating revenues over the current operating cycle (one year) and certain
other amounts due from the Consenting Limited Partners.
NOTE 2 - GAS CONTRACT
Effective January 1, 1993, under a gas purchase agreement ("agreement"),
WGMan began purchasing all of the Partnership's natural gas production.
The agreement is for five years and calls for a market responsive price
which is tied to a published index. WGMan is paid an administrative fee of
$.04 per MMBtu of gas purchased as compensation for administration and
marketing of gas. WGMan also is responsible for administration of third
party gas contracts as outlined in the agreement; however, the Partnership
remains responsible for all costs related to production, gathering,
processing or severance of the gas prior to Delivery Point. These costs
have been recorded as marketing deductions in the financial statements.
NOTE 3 - ALLOCATION OF PARTNERSHIP REVENUES, COSTS AND EXPENSES
The Partnership Agreement provides that revenues, costs and expenses
shall be allocated to the partners as follows:

</TABLE>
The depletion provision is calculated based on discrete calculations
utilizing the Partnership's and the partners' share of the related capital
costs and estimated future net revenues. For financial statement purposes,
each partner's depletion provision has been increased by the amount that
its share of unamortized costs exceeded its capitalization ceiling. The
difference between depletion applicable to the partners and the total
applicable to the Partnership is shown as a combining adjustment in the
Statements of Partners' Capital (Deficit) for the six months ended June 30,
1995 and 1994. During the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, the net
capitalized costs of the Partnership's oil and gas properties did not
exceed the capitalization ceiling.
NOTE 4 - PURCHASE OF LIMITED PARTNERS' INTERESTS
The Limited Partners may require the General Partner to purchase up to
ten percent of their interests annually. The purchase price is based on
the Limited Partners' proportionate share of the sum of (i) two-thirds of
the present worth of estimated future net revenues using a discount rate
equal to the prime rate in effect on the applicable valuation date plus one
percent, (ii) the present value of the estimated salvage value of all
production facilities and tangible assets, and (iii) the net book value of
all other assets and liabilities.
At January 1, 1995, the General Partner calculated a purchase price of
$69.31 per Consenting Limited Partner unit. The purchase price
calculations for the Nonconsenting Limited Partners have not resulted in
positive amounts and, therefore, the General Partner has not offered to
purchase such units during 1995. The ceiling limitation for units tendered
for repurchase is $921,063. Within the prescribed tender period, twenty-
two consenting Limited Partners tendered eighty-five units for a total
repurchase value of $5,891.35.
NOTE 5 - SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES
The General Partner is reimbursed for administrative and overhead costs
incurred in conducting the business of the Partnership. Such
reimbursements have been the maximum allowed under the terms of the
Partnership Agreement during the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.
After such time as total contributions from the Limited Partners have
been expended, the General Partner may advance funds to the Limited
Partners for their share of costs and expenses for continuing operations.
Interest was charged to the Limited Partners on such advances at a rate
which approximated 10% and 7% during the six months ended June 30, 1995 and
1994, respectively. The General Partner is reimbursed for funds advanced
to the Limited Partners from revenues otherwise allocable to the Limited
Partners.
NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are not levied at the Partnership level, but rather on the
individual partners; therefore, no provision for liability for federal and
state income taxes has been reflected in the accompanying financial
statements. The qualification of the Partnership as a partnership for tax
purposes and the amount of the Partnership's income or loss is subject to
examination by federal and state tax authorities. If such examinations
result in changes with respect to the Partnership's qualifications or in
changes in the Partnership's income or loss, the tax liability of the
partners could be changed accordingly.
Income tax deductions are allocated according to the manner in which the
related costs were allocated. The Tax Reform Act of 1976 provides that
income tax deductions for depletion must be computed by each partner rather
than by the Partnership. Accordingly, the income tax returns of the
Partnership will not include deductions for depletion since such amounts
are not Partnership deductions.
Under the passive loss rules of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 certain
limitations on the deductibility of losses attributable to an investment in
the Partnership apply to the Limited Partners which are individuals,
estates, trusts, closely held corporations and any personal service
corporations. In general, losses from activities in which an investor does
not materially participate (characterized as passive activities), such as a
Limited Partner's interest in the Partnership, are only deductible to the
extent of income from such passive activities.
NOTE 7 - CONTINGENCY
The Partnership has a net capital deficiency. As a result of the
deficit capital position of the Nonconsenting Limited Partners, all net
cash flows attributable to the Nonconsenting Limited Partners' share of the
Partnership's operations are presently applied against their indebtedness
for past advances by the General Partner and are not available to fund
Partnership needs. Funds required by the Partnership in excess of those
generated by the operations attributable to different partner interests
will be advanced by the General partner. CODY is currently considering
either transferring its limited partner and general partner interests in
the Partnership, or withdrawing as general partner of the Partnership or
taking other actions to reduce its responsibilities in the Partnership,
which could lead to the ultimate dissolution of the Partnership. These
conditions raise substantial doubt about the Partnership's ability to
continue as a going concern. As long as CODY remains the General Partner
of the Partnership, GCEC intends to continue advancing funds required by
the Partnership in excess of those generated by operations through CODY.
The 1995 financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE 8 - RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain amounts from prior years have been reclassified to be consistent
with the financial statement presentation for 1995. Such reclassification
had no effect on net income (loss).
C&K 1981 FUND-B, LTD.
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30,
1995 was $127,436, as compared to net cash used in operations of $29,491
for the corresponding period in 1994. This increase was the result of an
overall decrease in revenues compounded by an overall increase in expenses.
During the six months ended June 30, 1995, the Partnership distributed
to the General Partner cash proceeds of $96,124. (See Notes 1 and 5 of the
Condensed Notes to the Financial Statements). For the six months ended
June 30, 1995, the General Partner's contributions (allocated share of
costs and expenses incurred) were $104,700.
The Consenting Limited Partners' financing requirements for operating
expenses and capital projects are currently provided by revenues from their
share of the Partnership's operations. The Partnership does not consider
long-term financing arrangements on behalf of the Consenting Limited
Partners, from the General Partner or other sources, as necessary at this
time.
As a result of the deficit capital position of the Nonconsenting Limited
Partners, all net cash flows attributable to the Nonconsenting Limited
Partners' share of the Partnership's operations are presently applied
entirely against their indebtedness for past advances by the General
Partner and are not available to fund Partnership needs. As long as CODY
remains the general partner of the Partnership, GCEC intends to continue
advancing funds, through CODY, required by the Partnership in excess of
those generated by operations.
The Partnership's financial condition and operating results have been
affected by the unsettled energy markets and will continue to be materially
affected by any significant fluctuations in sales prices. The
Partnership's ability to internally generate funds for capital expenditures
and the Nonconsenting Partners' ability to reimburse funds advanced by the
General Partner will be similarly affected. The Partnership cannot predict
the prices it will receive in the remainder of 1995 or in future years for
its crude oil and natural gas.
For the six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, the Partnership
incurred capital expenditures of $666 and $145,963, respectively. The
Partnership has made no immediate plans for additional exploratory or
developmental capital programs except those necessary to maintain well
productivity for 1995.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended June 30, 1995 vs. Three Months Ended June 30, 1994
The Partnership reported a net loss of $65,916 for the three months
ended June 30, 1995 as compared to a net loss of $30,760 reported for the
same period in 1994. The increase was primarily attributable to increases
in lease operating expenses, production taxes and interest expense. An
increase in gas production was offset by a decline in price per mcf.
Crude oil and natural gas sales for the three months ended June 30, 1995
were $135,927, an increase of $698, or 1% compared to the same period in
1994. Crude oil production decreased to 67 barrels per day, while natural
gas production increased to 210 thousand cubic feet ("mcf") per day, as
compared to 72 barrels and 164 mcf, respectively, in 1994. During the
second quarter of 1995, average sales prices for crude oil increased to
$17.76 per barrel, while natural gas decreased to $1.45 per mcf, as
compared to $16.21 per barrel and $2.13 per mcf, respectively, for the same
period in 1994. The increase in natural gas production was due to the
addition of the Mestena E-18 well, which offset declining production on
other Partnership wells.
Lease operating expense for the three months ended June 30, 1995
increased by $8,970 or 31% compared to the corresponding period in 1994.
Production tax expense for the second quarter of 1995 increased by $7,897
or 78% compared to the same period in 1994. These increases are mainly the
result of additional gas volumes from the Mestena E-18 well and related
operating expenses. The Mestena E-18 well started producing in May, 1994.
Marketing deductions were 4,430 for the three months ended June 30, 1995 as
compared to $5,997 for the three months ended June 30, 1994. Depletion
expense increased by $1,657 or 9% compared to the corresponding period in
1994. General and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 1995
increased by $3,475 or 5% compared to the same period in 1994. Interest
expense increased by $14,667 or 43% compared to the corresponding period in
1994. The increase in interest expense is due primarily to the increase in
interest rates in 1995 and an increase in the payable balance to the
General Partner in 1995 as compared to 1994.
Six Months Ended June 30, 1995 vs. Six Months Ended June 30, 1994
The Partnership reported a net loss of $162,065 for the six months ended
June 30, 1995, as compared to a net loss of $61,508 for the same period in
1994. The increase was primarily attributable to declines in oil
production and gas prices, and increases in lease operating expenses,
production taxes and interest expense.
Crude oil and natural gas sales for the six months ended June 30, 1995
were $227,319, a decrease of $36,800, or 14% compared to the same period in
1994. Crude oil production decreased to 57 barrels per day, while natural
gas production increased to 178 mcf per day, as compared to 74 barrels and
172 mcf, respectively, in 1994. During the first six months of 1995,
average sales prices for crude oil increased to $17.38 per barrel, while
natural gas decreased to $1.48 per mcf, as compared to $14.65 per barrel
and $2.28 per mcf, respectively, for the same period in 1994. Natural gas
production increased slightly due to the addition of the Mestena E-18 well,
offsetting somewhat the otherwise decline in gas prices.
Lease operating expense for the six months ended June 30, 1995 increased
by $19,995 or 41% compared to the corresponding period in 1994.
Production tax expense for the first six months of 1995 increased by $6,409
or 31% compared to the same period in 1994. These increases relate
primarily to the addition of the Mestena E-18 as a producing gas well,
effective May, 1994. Marketing deductions were $7,850 for the six months
ended June 30, 1995 as compared to $14,784 for the same period in 1994.
Depletion expense increased by $2,612 or 8% compared to the corresponding
period in 1994. General and administrative expenses for the six months
ended June 30, 1995 increased by $10,822 or 7% compared to the same
period in 1994. Interest expense increased by $29,192 or 46% compared to
the same period in 1994. The increase in interest expense is due primarily
to the increase in interest rates in 1995 and an increase in the payable
balance to the General Partner in 1995 as compared to 1994.
