                    SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 AND DECEMBER 31, 1994

(1)   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

      (a)  Nature of Operations

           IEA Income Fund VI, A California Limited Partnership (the
           "Partnership") is a limited partnership organized under the laws of
           the State of California on August 1, 1984 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.

                                                                     (Continued)

                     NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

      (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 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, 1995 and December 31, 1994 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
      September 30, 1995 and 1994, was as follows:

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, 1995 and
          December 31, 1994.

          The Registrant's cash balances at September 30, 1995 included sales
          proceeds from equipment disposals in the amount of $260,776. The
          Registrant will distribute these sales proceeds and $878,404 of cash
          from operations during the fourth quarter of 1995, representing
          distributions to its limited partners for the third quarter of 1995.

          Net lease receivables due from the Leasing Company declined 17% from
          December 31, 1994. Contributing to this decline was a 30% increase in
          direct operating payables and accrued expenses, arising from an
          increase in deferred revenue from advance billings to container
          lessees. During the first nine months of 1995, the reserve for
          container repairs covered by the damage protection plan was impacted
          by a reduction in the number of containers covered under the plan,
          resulting in a 40% decline, partially offsetting the increase in
          direct operating payables and accrued expenses.

2)        Material changes in the results of operations between the three and
          nine-month periods ended September 30, 1995 and the three and
          nine-month periods ended September 30, 1994.

          Net lease revenue for the third quarter of 1995 was $744,483, an
          increase of 7% over the third quarter of 1994. Gross rental revenue (a
          component of net lease revenue) for the quarter was $1,351,909, a
          decline of 8% from the same period last year. For the first nine
          months of 1995, net lease revenue was $2,448,629 as compared to
          $2,433,592 for the first nine months of 1994. Gross rental revenue
          declined 5% to $4,210,557 over the same nine-month period.

          Gross rental revenue for the third quarter and first nine months of
          1995 was primarily affected by the Registrant's diminishing fleet
          size. During the third quarter of 1995, utilization rates were
          constant with those experienced in the same quarter in the prior year,
          while average utilization rates for the nine-month period ending 1995
          were higher than the average utilization for the same nine-month
          period in the prior year. However, competitive pressures within the
          container leasing market, as well as the Leasing Company's efforts to
          improve the credit quality of its customer portfolio, combined to 
          create a resistance to higher per-diem rental rates. Accordingly,
          average per-diem rental rates remained relatively stable when 
          compared to the same periods in the prior year. The Registrant
          expects to gain long-term benefits from the improvement in the
          credit quality of this customer portfolio, as the allowance for
          doubtful accounts and related expenses should decline.

          The Registrant's average fleet size and utilization rates for the
          three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 were as
          follows:

      During the third quarter of 1995, the container leasing market began to
      experience the effects of increasingly competitive market conditions,
      including, but not limited to, a resistance to higher per-diem rental
      rates, slightly lower utilization rates resulting from an expanding supply
      of marine cargo containers within the container industry, and the economic
      condition of the shipping industry, which has experienced a current trend
      toward consolidation. Accordingly, the Registrant expects a stable
      container leasing market during the remainder of 1995 and first half of
      1996.

      Rental equipment operating expenses declined 38% and 19% during the three
      and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1995, respectively, when
      compared to the same periods in the prior year. The declining fleet size
      was a contributing factor to the declines in base management fees and
      reimbursed administrative expenses. Incentive fees, which are based on the
      operating performance of the fleet and sales proceeds, are incurred only
      after the limited partners receive an 8% cumulative, compounded (daily),
      annual return on their Adjusted Capital Contribution. A rise in container
      disposals contributed to an increase in these fees of approximately 28%
      and 10%, respectively, when compared to the same three and nine-month
      periods in 1994.

      Approximately 8% and 13% of the Registrant's net earnings for the three
      and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1995, respectively, were from
      gain on disposal of equipment, as compared to 28% and 17%, respectively,
      for the same three and nine-month periods in the prior year. As the
      Registrant accelerates the disposal of its containers in subsequent
      periods, net gain on disposal will contribute significantly to the
      Registrant's net earnings.
