NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 1996
(Unaudited)
(1) The condensed statements included herein have been prepared
by the Partnership, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and
reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary to a fair statement of the results of
operations for the interim period, on a basis consistent with
the annual audited statements. The adjustments made to these
condensed statements consist only of normal recurring
adjustments. Certain information, accounting policies, and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant
to such rules and regulations, although the Partnership
believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. It is suggested that
these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and the summary of significant
accounting policies and notes thereto included in the
Partnership's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB.
(2) Organization -
AEI Real Estate Fund 85-B Limited Partnership (Partnership)
was formed to acquire and lease commercial properties to
operating tenants. The Partnership's operations are managed
by Net Lease Management 85-B, Inc. (NLM), the Managing
General Partner of the Partnership. Robert P. Johnson, the
President and sole shareholder of NLM, serves as the
Individual General Partner of the Partnership. An affiliate
of NLM, AEI Fund Management, Inc., performs the
administrative and operating functions for the Partnership.
The terms of the Partnership offering call for a
subscription price of $1,000 per Limited Partnership Unit,
payable on acceptance of the offer. The Partnership
commenced operations on September 17, 1985 when minimum
subscriptions of 1,300 Limited Partnership Units
($1,300,000) were accepted. The Partnership's offering
terminated on February 4, 1986 when the maximum subscription
limit of 7,500 Limited Partnership Units ($7,500,000) was
reached.
Under the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement, the
Limited Partners and General Partners contributed funds of
$7,500,000 and $1,000, respectively. During the operation
of the Partnership, any Net Cash Flow, as defined, which the
General Partners determine to distribute will be distributed
90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General Partners;
provided, however, that such distributions to the General
Partners will be subordinated to the Limited Partners first
receiving an annual, noncumulative distribution of Net Cash
Flow equal to 10% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution, as
defined, and, provided further, that in no event will the
General Partners receive less than 1% of such Net Cash Flow
per annum. Distributions to Limited Partners will be made
pro rata by Units.
AEI REAL ESTATE FUND 85-B LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)
(2) Organization - (Continuted)
Any Net Proceeds of Sale, as defined, from the sale or
financing of the Partnership's properties which the General
Partners determine to distribute will, after provisions for
debts and reserves, be paid in the following manner: (i)
first, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General
Partners until the Limited Partners receive an amount equal
to: (a) their Adjusted Capital Contribution plus (b) an
amount equal to 6% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution
per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not
previously distributed from Net Cash Flow; (ii) next, 99% to
the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners until
the Limited Partners receive an amount equal to 14% of their
Adjusted Capital Contribution per annum, cumulative but not
compounded, to the extent not previously distributed; (iii)
next, to the General Partners until cumulative distributions
to the General Partners under Items (ii) and (iii) equal 15%
of cumulative distributions to all Partners under Items (ii)
and (iii). Any remaining balance will be distributed 85% to
the Limited Partners and 15% to the General Partners.
Distributions to the Limited Partners will be made pro rata
by Units.
For tax purposes, profits from operations, other than
profits attributable to the sale, exchange, financing,
refinancing or other disposition of the Partnership's
property, will be allocated first in the same ratio in
which, and to the extent, Net Cash Flow is distributed to
the Partners for such year. Any additional profits will be
allocated 90% to the Limited Partners and 10% to the General
Partners. In the event no Net Cash Flow is distributed to
the Limited Partners, 90% of each item of Partnership
income, gain or credit for each respective year shall be
allocated to the Limited Partners, and 10% of each such item
shall be allocated to the General Partners. Net losses from
operations will be allocated 98% to the Limited Partners and
2% to the General Partners.
For tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing,
or other disposition of the Partnership's property will be
allocated in accordance with the Partnership Agreement as
follows: (i) first, to those Partners with deficit balances
in their capital accounts in an amount equal to the sum of
such deficit balances; (ii) second, 99% to the Limited
Partners and 1% to the General Partners until the aggregate
balance in the Limited Partners' capital accounts equals the
sum of the Limited Partners' Adjusted Capital Contributions
plus an amount equal to 14% of their Adjusted Capital
Contributions per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to
the extent not previously allocated; (iii) third, to the
General Partners until cumulative allocations to the General
Partners equal 15% of cumulative allocations. Any remaining
balance will be allocated 85% to the Limited Partners and
15% to the General Partners. Losses will be allocated 98%
to the Limited Partners and 2% to the General Partners.
The General Partners are not required to currently fund a
deficit capital balance. Upon liquidation of the Partnership
or withdrawal by a General Partner, the General Partners
will contribute to the Partnership an amount equal to the
lesser of the deficit balances in their capital accounts or
1% of total Limited Partners' and General Partners' capital
contributions.

(3) Payable to AEI Fund Management -

operating functions for the Partnership. The payable to AEI
Fund Management represents the balance due for those
services. This balance is non-interest bearing and
unsecured and is to be paid in the normal course of
business.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Results of Operations
For the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, the
Partnership recognized rental income of $143,078 and $139,875,
respectively. During the same periods, the Partnership earned
investment income of $3,587 and $3,603, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, the
Partnership paid Partnership administration expenses to
affiliated parties of $27,226 and $28,961, respectively. These
administration expenses include costs associated with the
management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting
requirements and correspondence to the Limited Partners. During
the same periods, the Partnership incurred Partnership
administration and property management expenses from unrelated
parties of $19,656 and $21,823, respectively. These expenses
represent direct payments to third parties for legal and filing
fees, direct administrative costs, outside audit and accounting
costs, taxes, insurance and other property costs.
The Fair Muffler property in Park Forest, Illinois was
acquired in August, 1986 and leased under a long-term triple net
lease for twenty years. In 1989, the lessee filed for bankruptcy
and the Partnership re-leased the property to a Fair Muffler
franchisee who had been operating the property as a sublessee.
The franchisee has continued to operate the property since 1989,
but has had financial problems and is not in compliance with all
of the terms of the Lease Agreement. The Partnership is
reviewing its available options which include selling or re-
leasing the property. However, other real estate in the
immediate area has been taken back by lenders and is maintaining
a high vacancy rate.
The Partnership obtained an independent appraisal which
valued the property at $125,000. In 1995, a charge of $116,252
to operations was recognized for an impairment in value between
the appraised value and the book value of $241,252. The charge
was recorded against the carrying amount of the land. The cost
of the building and equipment continue to be depreciated over the
remaining estimated useful life.
As of March 31, 1996, the Partnership's annualized cash
distribution rate was 6.27%, based on the Adjusted Capital
Contribution. Distributions of Net Cash Flow to the General
Partners were subordinated to the Limited Partners as required in
the Partnership Agreement. As a result, 99% of distributions and
income were allocated to Limited Partners and 1% to the General
Partners.
ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. (Continued)
Inflation has had a minimal effect on income from
operations. It is expected that increases in sales volumes of
the tenants, due to inflation and real sales growth, will result
in an increase in rental income over the term of the leases.
Inflation also may cause the Partnership's real estate to
appreciate in value. However, inflation and changing prices may
also have an adverse impact on the operating margins of the
properties' tenants which could impair their ability to pay rent
and subsequently reduce the Partnership's Net Cash Flow available
for distributions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the three months ended March 31, 1996, the
Partnership's cash balances increased $5,629 as the Partnership
distributed slightly less cash to the Partners than it generated
from operating activities. Net cash provided by operating
activities increased from $115,039 in 1995 to $126,367 in 1996
mainly as a result of an increase in net income before
depreciation.
The Partnership's primary use of cash flow is distribution
and redemption payments to Partners. The Partnership declares
its regular quarterly distributions before the end of each
quarter and pays the distribution in the first week after the end
of each quarter. The Partnership attempts to maintain a stable
distribution rate from quarter to quarter. However, in certain
quarters, the Partnership will increase the quarterly
distribution to pay out contingent rent received as a result of
an increase in sales at a property. The distribution of the
contingent rent can cause the total distributions and the
distribution payable to fluctuate from year to year. Redemption
payments are paid to redeeming Partners in the fourth quarter of
each year.
In December, 1995, the Partnership distributed $18,578 of
sale proceeds to the Limited and General Partners as part of
their regular quarterly distribution, which represented a return
of capital of $2.70 per Limited Partnership Unit.
The Partnership may purchase Units from Limited Partners
who have tendered their Units to the Partnership. Such Units may
be acquired at a discount. The Partnership is not obligated to
purchase in any year more than 5% of the total number of Units
originally sold and in no event, obligated to purchase Units if
such purchase would impair the capital or operation of the
Partnership.
During 1995, four Limited Partners redeemed a total of
25.3 Partnership Units for $15,046 in accordance with the
Partnership Agreement. The Partnership acquired these Units
using Net Cash Flow from operations. In prior years, a total of
sixty-four Limited Partners redeemed 655.5 Partnership Units for
$533,696. The redemptions increase the remaining Limited
Partners' ownership interest in the Partnership.
The continuing rent payments from the properties, together
with the Partnership's cash reserve, should be adequate to fund
continuing distributions and meet other Partnership obligations
on both a short-term and long-term basis.
