IEA MARINE CONTAINER INCOME FUND V(A)
NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Nature of Operations
IEA Marine Container Income Fund V(A) (the "Partnership") is a limited
partnership organized under the laws of the State of California on
August 8, 1983 for the purpose of owning and leasing marine cargo
containers. The managing general partner is Cronos Capital Corp.
("CCC"); the associate general partners include four individuals. CCC,
with its affiliate Cronos Containers Limited (the "Leasing Company"),
manages and controls the business of the Partnership.
(b) Leasing Company and Leasing Agent Agreement
Pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership, all
authority to administer the business of the Partnership is vested in
CCC. CCC has entered into a Leasing Agent Agreement whereby the
Leasing Company has the responsibility to manage the leasing
operations of all equipment owned by the Partnership. Pursuant to the
Agreement, the Leasing Company is responsible for leasing, managing
and re-leasing the Partnership's containers to ocean carriers and has
full discretion over which ocean carriers and suppliers of goods and
services it may deal with. The Leasing Agent Agreement permits the
Leasing Company to use the containers owned by the Partnership,
together with other containers owned or managed by the Leasing Company
and its affiliates, as part of a single fleet operated without regard
to ownership. Since the Leasing Agent Agreement meets the definition
of an operating lease in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 13, it is accounted for as a lease under which the
Partnership is lessor and the Leasing Company is lessee.
The Leasing Agent Agreement generally provides that the Leasing
Company will make payments to the Partnership based upon rentals
collected from ocean carriers after deducting direct operating
expenses and management fees to CCC. The Leasing Company leases
containers to ocean carriers, generally under operating leases which
are either master leases or term leases (mostly two to five years).
Master leases do not specify the exact number of containers to be
leased or the term that each container will remain on hire but allow
the ocean carrier to pick up and drop off containers at various
locations; rentals are based upon the number of containers used and
the applicable per-diem rate. Accordingly, rentals under master leases
are all variable and contingent upon the number of containers used.
Most containers are leased to ocean carriers under master leases;
leasing agreements with fixed payment terms are not material to the
financial statements. Since there are no material minimum lease
rentals, no disclosure of minimum lease rentals is provided in these
financial statements.
(c) Basis of Accounting
The Partnership utilizes the accrual method of accounting. Revenue is
recognized when earned.
The Partnership has determined that for accounting purposes the
Leasing Agent Agreement is a lease, and the receivables, payables,
gross revenues and operating expenses attributable to the containers
managed by the Leasing Company are, for accounting purposes, those of
the Leasing Company and not of the Partnership. Consequently, the
Partnership's balance sheets and statements of operations display the
payments to be received by the Partnership from the Leasing Company as
the Partnership's receivables and revenues.

(d) Financial Statement Presentation
These financial statements have been prepared without audit. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
procedures have been omitted. It is suggested that these financial
statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
accompanying notes in the Partnership's latest annual report on Form
10-K.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires the Partnership 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 reported period.
The interim financial statements presented herewith reflect all
adjustments of a normal recurring nature which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary to a fair statement of the financial condition
and results of operations for the interim periods presented.
(2) Net Lease Receivables Due from Leasing Company
Net lease receivables due from the Leasing Company are determined by
deducting direct operating payables and accrued expenses, base management
fees payable, reimbursed administrative expenses and incentive fees
payable to CCC, the Leasing Company, and its affiliates from the rental
billings payable by the Leasing Company to the Partnership under operating
leases to ocean carriers for the containers owned by the Partnership. Net
lease receivables at September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 were as
follows:

(3) Net Lease Revenue
Net lease revenue is determined by deducting direct operating expenses,
management fees and reimbursed administrative expenses to CCC and the
Leasing Company, from the rental revenue billed by the Leasing Company
under operating leases to ocean carriers for the containers owned by the
Partnership. Net lease revenue for the three and nine-month periods ended

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
It is suggested that the following discussion be read in conjunction with the
Registrant's most recent annual report on Form 10-K.
1) Material changes in financial condition between September 30, 1996 and
December 31, 1995.
During the first nine months of 1996, the Registrant continued disposing
of containers as part of its ongoing operations. Accordingly, 383
containers were disposed, contributing to a decline in the Registrant's
operating results. At September 30, 1996, 40% of the original equipment
remained in the Registrant's fleet, as compared to 63% at December 31,
1995, comprised as follows:

Remaining fleet at September 30, 1996 437 36% 155 43% 69 92%
====== ==== === === === =====
</TABLE>
Net lease receivables at September 30, 1996 declined when compared to
December 31, 1995. Contributing to this decline were favorable collections
of the Registrant's lease receivables, a diminishing fleet size, and its
related operating performance. During the third quarter of 1996,
distributions from operations and sales proceeds amounted to $252,961,
reflecting distributions to the general and limited partners for the
second quarter of 1996. This represents an increase from the $157,788
distributed during the second quarter of 1996, reflecting higher
distributions from sales proceeds for the second quarter of 1996. The
Registrant's disposal activity should produce lower operating results and,
consequently, lower distributions from operations to its partners in
subsequent periods. However, sales proceeds distributed to partners may
fluctuate in subsequent periods, reflecting the level of container
disposals.
The statements contained in the following discussion are based on current
expectations. These statements are forward looking and actual results may
differ materially. Indicative of the cyclical nature of the container
leasing business, containerized trade slowed in the last quarter of 1995,
and excess inventories began to develop. This slowdown has resulted in
reduced equipment utilization and lower per-diem rental rates in the
container leasing industry during the first nine months of 1996. However,
as a result of the Registrant's policy of disposing off-hire containers,
utilization at September 30, 1996 averaged 86%, unchanged from the average
rate at December 31, 1995. Additionally, during the first nine months of
1996, the Leasing Company implemented various marketing strategies,
including but not limited to, offering incentives to shipping companies
and repositioning containers to high demand locations in order to counter
the market conditions. Ancillary revenues have fallen, and free-day
incentives offered to the shipping lines have increased. As a result,
these leasing market conditions, combined with the Registrant's disposal
of containers, are expected to adversely impact the results from
operations through the remainder of 1996 and into 1997.

<PAGE> 11
2) Material changes in the results of operations between the three and
nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and the three and nine-month
periods ended September 30, 1995.
Net lease revenue for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30,
1996 was $55,892 and $189,278 respectively, a decline of 42% and 45% from
the same three and nine-month periods in the prior year, respectively.
Approximately 47% and 45% of the Registrant's net earnings for the three
and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996, respectively, were from
gain on disposal of equipment, as compared to 21% and 25% for the same
three and nine-month periods in the prior year, respectively. As the
Registrant continues the disposal of its containers in subsequent periods,
net gain on disposal should contribute significantly to the Registrant's
net earnings.
Gross rental revenue (a component of net lease revenue) for the three and
nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 was $108,770 and $385,623,
respectively, reflecting a decline of 43% and 37% from the same three and
nine-month periods in 1995, respectively. During 1996, gross rental
revenue was primarily impacted by the Registrant's diminishing fleet size.
Average per-diem rental rates decreased approximately 3% and 2%, when
compared to the three and nine-month periods in the prior year, as they
became subject to the downward pressures of an increasingly soft container
leasing market. The Registrant's average fleet size and utilization rates
for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and
September 30, 1995 were as follows:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended

Average Fleet Size (measured in
twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU)) 920 1,476 1,095 1,587
Average Utilization 87% 86% 85% 87%
</TABLE>
The Registrant's aging and declining fleet size contributed to a 35% and
28% decline in depreciation expense when compared to the same three and
nine-month periods in the prior year, respectively. Rental equipment
operating expenses were 17% and 26% of the Registrant's gross lease
revenue for the three-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. This decline was primarily attributable to a reduction in
the provision for doubtful accounts and the costs associated with the
recovery actions against the doubtful accounts of certain lessees. Rental
equipment operating expenses were approximately 21% during each of the
nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. The Registrant's
declining fleet size and related operating performance contributed to the
decline in base management fees, when compared to the same periods in the
prior year.
