NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
------------------------------
The financial statements presented herein are prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles and the instructions for preparing
Form 10-Q under Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange
Commission and are unaudited. As such, these financial statements do not
include all information and footnote disclosures required under generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and,
accordingly, the accompanying financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the footnotes presented in the 1995 Annual Report. Except
as disclosed herein, there has been no material change to the information
presented in the footnotes to the 1995 Annual Report.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and
recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the financial
position at June 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995 and results of operations for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 have been made
and are reflected.
NOTE 2 - CASH
-------------
At June 30, 1996, the Partnership had $755,000 invested in reverse
repurchase agreements secured by U.S. Treasury Bills or interests in U.S.
Government securities.
NOTE 3 - REVENUE RECOGNITION
----------------------------
Rents are payable to the Partnership monthly, quarterly or semi-annually

===========
</TABLE>
At June 30, 1996, the Partnership's equipment portfolio included equipment
having a proportionate original cost of $5,927,050, representing
approximately 82% of total equipment cost.
At June 30, 1996, the Partnership was not holding any equipment not
subject to a lease.
During the quarter ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership recorded a write-
down, representing an impairment in value, pertaining to its interest in a
Lockheed L-1011 aircraft. This adjustment was precipitated by continuing
deterioration in the secondary market for wide-body aircraft of this type.
Several air carriers have reduced their commitment to the L-1011 and,
currently, a major domestic air carrier is expected to retire eleven L-1011
aircraft from its fleet. Further, it appears that future demand for this
type of aircraft will be weak, consisting principally of air cargo carriers
or operators of passenger charters. In consideration of such circumstances
and in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No.
121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed Of, the Partnership reduced the carrying value of its
L-1011 aircraft interest to its estimated current fair market value. This
resulted in a write-down of $400,000, representing $0.51 per limited
partnership unit.
NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
-----------------------------------
All operating expenses incurred by the Partnership are paid by AFG on
behalf of the Partnership and AFG is reimbursed at its actual cost for such
expenditures. Fees and other costs incurred during each of the six month
periods ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, which were paid or accrued by the
Partnership to AFG or its Affiliates, are as follows:

All rents and proceeds from the sale of equipment are paid directly to
either AFG or to a lender. AFG temporarily deposits collected funds in a
separate interest-bearing escrow account prior to remittance to the
Partnership. At June 30, 1996, the Partnership was owed $ 6,590 by AFG for
such funds and the interest thereon. These funds were remitted to the
Partnership in July 1996.
NOTE 6 - NOTES PAYABLE
----------------------
Notes payable at June 30, 1996 consisted of one installment note of
$17,133 payable to a bank. The installment note is non-recourse, with an
interest rate of 7.13%. The installment note is collateralized by the
equipment and assignment of the related lease payments and will be fully
amortized by noncancellable rents in the year ending June 30, 1997. The
carrying amount of notes payable approximates fair value at June 30, 1996.
NOTE 7 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
--------------------------
On March 15, 1993, Herman's Sporting Goods, Inc., a lessee of the
Partnership (the "Debtor"), filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code in the United States District Court, Trenton, New Jersey (the
"District Court"). Certain unpaid rents due to the Partnership were scheduled
by the Debtor as unsecured claims. Upon order of the District Court, renewal
rental schedules for all equipment leased to the Debtor by the Partnership
were executed and are currently in effect. On August 23, 1994, the District
Court confirmed the Debtor's First Modified Plan of Reorganization, as
Amended and Modified. On April 26, 1996, the Debtor refiled for protection
under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the District Court. Rents due to
the Partnership pursuant to the renewal schedules due to expire on June 30,
1996 were scheduled by the Debtor as unsecured claims. At June 30, 1996, the
Partnership was due $4,437 from the Debtor with respect to its 1993 and 1996
unsecured claims. The Partnership's equipment portfolio includes equipment
on lease to the Debtor with an original cost of approximately $246,373, which
is expected to be purchased by the Debtor, and is fully depreciated for
financial reporting purposes. This equipment represents approximately 3% of
the Partnership's aggregate equipment portfolio at June 30, 1996. These
Bankruptcies did not have a material adverse effect on the financial position
of the Partnership.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
ended June 30, 1995:
--------------------
Overview
--------
The Partnership was organized in 1987 as a direct-participation equipment
leasing program to acquire a diversified portfolio of capital equipment
subject to lease agreements with third parties. The Partnership's stated
investment objectives and policies contemplated that the Partnership would
wind-up its operations within approximately seven years of its inception.
Accordingly, the Managing General Partner is pursuing the remarketing of all
of the Partnership's remaining equipment and has engaged an investment
adviser to solicit interested third-party buyers. This effort is being
undertaken in conjunction with certain other affiliated partnerships and, if
successful, would result in the sale of each affected partnership's assets to
a selected buyer. The Managing General Partner believes this approach will
(i) maximize the disposition prices of each partnership's assets and (ii)
prevent the incidence of future expenses to operate a publicly-registered
limited partnership with a declining asset base. The Managing General
Partner is evaluating expressions of interest submitted by the investment
adviser from a number of potential buyers, but is under no obligation to
accept any proposal. If successful, the Managing General Partner anticipates
that it would wind-up the operations of the Partnership and make a
liquidating distribution to the Partners, net of any cash reserves which the
Managing General Partner may consider appropriate, on or before December 31,
1996.
Results of Operations
---------------------
For the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership
recognized lease revenue of $127,869 and $280,866, respectively, compared to
$195,127 and $436,122 for the same periods in 1995. The decrease in lease
revenue from 1995 to 1996 was expected and resulted principally from primary
lease term expirations and the sale of equipment. The Partnership also earns
interest income from temporary investments of rental receipts and equipment
sales proceeds in short-term instruments.
The Partnership's equipment portfolio includes certain assets in which the
Partnership holds a proportionate ownership interest. In such cases, the
remaining interests are owned by AFG or an affiliated equipment leasing
program sponsored by AFG. Proportionate equipment ownership enables the
Partnership to further diversify its equipment portfolio by participating in
the ownership of selected assets, thereby reducing the general levels of risk
which could result from a concentration in any single equipment type,
industry or lessee. The Partnership and each affiliate individually report,
in proportion to their respective ownership interests, their respective
shares of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses associated with the
equipment.
For the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, the Partnership sold
equipment which had been fully depreciated to existing lessees and third
parties. These sales resulted in net gains, for financial statement
purposes, of $37,000 and $69,890, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, the Partnership sold
equipment which had been fully depreciated to existing lessees and third
parties. These sales resulted in net gains, for financial statement
purposes, of $39,040 and $303,078, respectively.
It cannot be determined whether future sales of equipment will
result in a net gain or a net loss to the Partnership, as such transactions
will be dependent upon the condition and type of equipment being sold and its
marketability at the time of sale. In addition, the amount of gain or loss
reported for financial statement
9
<PAGE>
AMERICAN INCOME PARTNERS III-C LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
FORM 10-Q
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
purposes is partly a function of the amount of accumulated depreciation
associated with the equipment being sold.
The ultimate realization of residual value for any type of equipment is
dependent upon many factors, including AFG's ability to sell and re-lease
equipment. Changing market conditions, industry trends, technological
advances, and many other events can converge to enhance or detract from asset
values at any given time. AFG attempts to monitor these changes in order to
identify opportunities which may be advantageous to the Partnership and which
will maximize total cash returns for each asset.
The total economic value realized upon final disposition of each asset is
comprised of all primary lease term revenues generated from that asset,
together with its residual value. The latter consists of cash proceeds
realized upon the asset's sale in addition to all other cash receipts
obtained from renting the asset on a re-lease, renewal or month-to-month
basis. The Partnership classifies such residual rental payments as lease
revenue. Consequently, the amount of gain or loss reported in the financial
statements is not necessarily indicative of the total residual value the
Partnership achieved from leasing the equipment.
Depreciation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 was
$91,772 and $183,544, respectively, compared to $110,172 and $221,613 for the
same periods in 1995. For financial reporting purposes, to the extent that an
asset is held on primary lease term, the Partnership depreciates the
difference between (i) the cost of the asset and (ii) the estimated residual
value of the asset on a straight-line basis over such term. For purposes of
this policy, estimated residual values represent estimates of equipment
values at the date of primary lease expiration. To the extent that an asset
is held beyond its primary lease term, the Partnership continues to
depreciate the remaining net book value of the asset on a straight-line basis
over the asset's remaining economic life.
During the quarter ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership recorded a write-
down, representing an impairment in value, pertaining to its interest in a
Lockheed L-1011 aircraft. This adjustment was precipitated by continuing
deterioration in the secondary market for wide-body aircraft of this type.
Several air carriers have reduced their commitment to the L-1011 and,
currently, a major domestic air carrier is expected to retire eleven L-1011
aircraft from its fleet. Further, it appears that future demand for this
type of aircraft will be weak, consisting principally of air cargo carriers
or operators of passenger charters. In consideration of such circumstances
and in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No.
121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed Of, the Partnership reduced the carrying value of its
L-1011 aircraft interest to its estimated current fair market value. This
resulted in a write-down of $400,000, representing $0.51 per limited
partnership unit.
Interest expense was $265 and $707 or less than 1% of lease revenue for
each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1996, respectively,
compared to $861 and $2,407 or less than 1% of lease revenue for the same
periods in 1995. In the future, interest expense will be minimal due to the
scheduled maturity of the Partnership's debt obligations in the year ending
June 30, 1997.
Management fees were 5% of lease revenue during each of the periods ended
June 30, 1996 and 1995 and will not change as a percentage of lease revenue
in future periods.
Operating expenses consist principally of administrative charges,
professional service costs, such as audit and legal fees, as well as
printing, distribution and remarketing expenses. In certain cases, equipment
storage or repairs and maintenance costs may be incurred in connection with
equipment being remarketed. Collectively, operating expenses represented
15.4% and 13.2% of lease revenue for the three and six months ended June 30,
1996, respectively, compared to 14.2% and 12.8% of lease revenue for the same
periods in 1995. The amount of future operating expenses cannot be predicted
with certainty; however, such
10

AMERICAN INCOME PARTNERS III-C LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
FORM 10-Q
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
expenses are usually higher during the acquisition and liquidation phases of
a partnership. Other fluctuations typically occur in relation to the volume
and timing of remarketing activities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources and Discussion of Cash Flows
------------------------------------------------------------
The Partnership by its nature is a limited life entity which was
established for specific purposes described in the preceding "Overview". As
an equipment leasing program, the Partnership's principal operating
activities derive from asset rental transactions. Accordingly, the
Partnership's principal source of cash from operations is provided by the
collection of periodic rents. These cash inflows are used to satisfy debt
service obligations associated with leveraged leases, and to pay management
fees and operating costs. Operating activities generated net cash inflows of
$263,467 during the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to $711,689 for
the same period in 1995. Future renewal, re-lease and equipment sale
activities will cause a gradual decline in the Partnership's lease revenues
and corresponding sources of operating cash. Overall, expenses associated
with rental activities, such as management fees, and net cash flow from
operating activities will decline as the Partnership experiences a higher
frequency of remarketing events.
Ultimately, the Partnership will dispose of all assets under lease. This
will occur principally through sale transactions whereby each asset will be
sold to the existing lessee or to a third party. Generally, this will occur
upon expiration of each asset's primary or renewal/re-lease term. In certain
instances, casualty or early termination events may result in the disposal of
an asset. Such circumstances are infrequent and usually result in the
collection of stipulated cash settlements pursuant to terms and conditions
contained in the underlying lease agreements.
Cash realized from asset disposal transactions is reported under investing
activities on the accompanying Statement of Cash Flows. During the six
months ended June 30, 1996, the Partnership realized $39,040 in equipment
sale proceeds compared to $303,078 for the same period in 1995. Future
inflows of cash from asset disposals will vary in timing and amount and will
be influenced by many factors including, but not limited to, the frequency
and timing of lease expirations, the type of equipment being sold, its
condition and age, and future market conditions.
The Partnership obtained long-term financing in connection with certain
equipment leases. The repayments of principal related to such indebtedness
are reported as a component of financing activities. Each note payable is
recourse only to the specific equipment financed and to the minimum rental
payments contracted to be received during the debt amortization period (which
period generally coincides with the lease rental term). As rental payments
are collected, a portion or all of the rental payment is used to repay the
associated indebtedness. The Partnership's notes payable will be fully
amortized by noncancellable rents in the year ending June 30, 1997.
Cash distributions to the Recognized Owners and General Partners are
declared and generally paid within fifteen days following the end of each
calendar quarter. The payment of such distributions is presented as a
component of financing activities. For the six months ended June 30, 1996,
the Partnership declared total cash distributions of Distributable Cash From
Operations and Distributable Cash From Sales and Refinancings of $293,230.
In accordance with the Amended and Restated Agreement and Certificate of
Limited Partnership, the Recognized Owners were allocated 99% of these
distributions, or $290,298, and the General Partners were allocated 1%, or
$2,932. The second quarter 1996 cash distribution was paid on July 15,
1996.
Cash distributions paid to the Partners consist of both a return of and a
return on capital. To the extent that cash distributions consist of Cash
From Sales or Refinancings, substantially all of such cash
11
<PAGE>
AMERICAN INCOME PARTNERS III-C LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
FORM 10-Q
PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
distributions should be viewed as a return of capital. Cash distributions do
not represent and are not indicative of yield on investment. Actual yield on
investment cannot be determined with any certainty until conclusion of the
Partnership and will be dependent upon the collection of all contracted
rents, the generation of renewal and/or re-lease rents, and the residual
value realized for each asset at its disposal date. Market conditions,
