NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2000
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Organization and nature of operations
Parker & Parsley 85-A, Ltd. (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership
organized in 1985 under the laws of the State of Texas.
The Partnership engages in oil and gas development and production in Texas and
is not involved in any industry segment other than oil and gas.
Note 2. Basis of presentation
In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements of the
Partnership as of March 31, 2000 include all adjustments and accruals consisting
only of normal recurring accrual adjustments which are necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim period. These interim results are
not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. Certain reclassifications
may have been made to the March 31, 1999 financial statements to conform to the
March 31, 2000 financial statement presentations.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes
thereto contained in the Partnership's Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1999, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, a copy
of which is available upon request by writing to Rich Dealy, Vice President and
Chief Accounting Officer, 5205 North O'Connor Boulevard, 1400 Williams Square
West, Irving, Texas 75039-3746.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations (1)
Results of Operations
Revenues:
The Partnership's oil and gas revenues increased 125% to $178,428 for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 to $79,161 for the same period in 1999. The increase
in revenues resulted from higher average prices received and an increase in
production. For the three months ended March 31, 2000, 4,451 barrels of oil,
2,984 barrels of natural gas liquids ("NGLs") and 11,812 mcf of gas were sold,
or 9,404 barrel of oil equivalents ("BOEs"). For the three months ended March
31, 1999, 4,321 barrels of oil, 2,471 barrels of NGLs and 11,693 mcf of gas were
sold, or 8,741 BOEs.

<PAGE>
The average price received per barrel of oil increased $15.68, or 134%, from
$11.72 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $27.40 for the same period
in 2000. The average price received per barrel of NGLs increased $7.07, or 139%,
from $5.09 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $12.16 for the same
period in 2000. The average price received per mcf of gas increased 26% from
$1.36 during the three months ended March 31, 1999 to $1.71 for the same period
in 2000. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile in the
past decade, and management expects a certain amount of volatility to continue
in the foreseeable future. The Partnership may therefore sell its future oil and
gas production at average prices lower or higher than that received during the
three months ended March 31, 2000.
The volatility of commodity prices has had, and continues to have, a significant
impact on the Partnership's revenues and operating cash flow and could result in
additional decreases to the carrying value of the Partnership's oil and gas
properties.
Costs and Expenses:
Total costs and expenses increased to $105,891 for the three months ended March
31, 2000 as compared to $81,390 for the same period in 1999, an increase of
$24,501, or 30%. This increase was due to increases in production costs and
general and administrative expenses ("G&A"), offset by a decline in depletion.
Production costs were $91,946 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and
$58,383 for the same period in 1999, an increase of $33,563, or 57%. The
increase was primarily attributable to additional well maintenance costs
incurred to stimulate well production and higher production taxes due to
increased oil and gas revenues.
G&A's components are independent accounting and engineering fees and managing
general partner personnel and operating costs. During this period, G&A
increased, in aggregate, 125% from $2,375 for the three months ended March 31,
1999 to $5,353 for the same period in 2000 primarily due to increased oil and
gas revenues.
Depletion was $8,592 for the three months ended March 31, 2000 compared to
$20,632 for the same period in 1999. This represented a decrease in depletion of
$12,040, or 58%. This decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in
proved reserves during the three months ended March 31, 2000 as a result of
higher commodity prices, offset by an increase in oil production of 130 barrels
for the period ended March 31, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $60,857 for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 from the same period in 1999. The increase was primarily
attributable to an increase of $98,840 in oil and gas sales receipts, offset by
an increase in operating costs paid of $35,054 and an increase in G&A expenses
paid of $2,929.

<PAGE>
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
The Partnership's investing activities during the three months ended March 31,
2000 and 1999 were related to equipment upgrades on active properties.
Net Cash Used in Financing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2000, cash distributions to the partners
were $68,884, of which $689 was distributed to the managing general partner and
$68,195 to the limited partners. For the same period ended March 31, 1999, cash
distributions to the partners were $8,097, of which $81 was distributed to the
managing general partner and $8,016 to the limited partners.
Other Items
Year 2000
During 1998, the managing general partner established a "Year 2000" project that
assessed the Partnership's and the managing general partner's internal Year 2000
problem; took remedial actions necessary to minimize the Year 2000 risk exposure
to the managing general partner and third parties; and, tested the managing
general partner's systems and processes once remedial actions were taken.
The managing general partner has closely monitored its information and
non-information technology systems since the beginning of 2000 and has
identified no significant Year 2000 failures or problems.
