Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. INTERIM ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and 310(b) of
Regulations of S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. The consolidated financial statements are the
representation of the General Partners and reflect all adjustments which are, in
the opinion of the General Partners, necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial position and results of operations of the Partnership. The General
Partners believe that all such adjustments are normal and recurring. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Chrisken Partners Cash Income Fund L.P.'s (the "Partnership")
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1997.
2. LITIGATION
In February 1998, a lawsuit was filed against the Partnership and affiliated
entities by a prospective buyer of a certain properties owned by the Partnership
and affiliated entities. The buyer sought specific performance by virtue of the
transfer of properties under the provisions of a terminated sales contract. The
lawsuit was dismissed pursuant to a settlement agreement which provided for a
payment of $500,000 to the prospective buyer of the properties.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
ChrisKen Partners Cash Income Fund L.P. ("CPCIF" or the "Partnership")
is a Delaware limited partnership organized on May 4, 1987, with ChrisKen Income
Properties, Inc. ("Managing General Partner") and ChrisKen Limited Partnership I
as General Partners. Pursuant to a public offering (the "Offering"), CPCIF sold
37,732 limited partnership units. CPCIF has 99.99% ownership interests in
Springdale Associates Limited Partnership and Chicago I Self-Storage Limited
Partnership. Springdale Associates Limited Partnership owns a 199-unit
residential complex located in Waukesha, Wisconsin ("Springdale Apartments"),
and Chicago I Self- Storage Limited Partnership owns a 155,997 square foot
self-storage facility located in Chicago, Illinois ("Gold Coast Storage").
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of $669,001 and $594,370
as of September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, respectively. The increase in
cash and cash equivalents is primarily due to distributions less than net cash
provided by operating partially offset by additions to investment in real
estate. Restricted cash represents operating and contingency reserves (the
"Reserve") equal to approximately 2% of the gross proceeds of the Offering
($377,320 at September 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997) as required by the
Limited Partnership Agreement. The Reserve is available for unanticipated
contingencies and repairs at Springdale Apartments and Gold Coast Storage
(collectively the "Specified Properties"). The General Partners believe the
current amount of the Reserve is adequate to satisfy cash requirement needs. The
Partnership holds the Specified Properties described above on an unencumbered or
all cash basis.
Results of Operations
Occupancy at the Springdale Apartments was 97% at September 30, 1998,
91% at December 31, 1997, and 90% at September 30, 1997. Rental revenue
increased during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the
same period one year earlier primarily due to a 28% reduction in vacancy loss
and rent concessions partially offset by increased employee units. The General
Partners believe that occupancy at Springdale Apartments will remain between
95 - 98% for the remainder of 1998 and near term 1999.
Occupancy at Gold Coast Storage was 87% at September 30, 1998, 90% at
December 31, 1997, and 93% at September 30, 1997. Rental revenue increased 10%
during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 as compared to the same period
one year earlier with rental rates increasing 7.7% and vacancy loss decreasing
by approximately 12%. The General Partners believe that occupancy at Gold Coast
will remain between 85 - 90% for the remainder of 1998 and near term 1999.
Management continues to aggressively market both apartment units at
Springdale Apartments and space at Gold Coast Storage in order to increase
occupancy percentages, and rental rates, at both locations.
Management anticipates occupancy at both Properties to improve during 1998.
Rental and other revenue of $1,155,075 for Springdale Apartments for
the nine months ended September 30, 1998 increased 2% from rental revenue of
$1,131,510 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The increase in rental
revenue primarily resulted from a 28% reduction in vacancy loss and rent
concessions partially offset by increased employee units in 1998. Rental and
other revenue at Gold Coast Storage increased by approximately 11% from $822,239
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 to $914,475 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998 primarily due to an increase in rental rates of
approximately 7.7% and a 12% reduction of vacancy loss. The General Partners
believe that rental revenue at Gold Coast Storage will remain relatively stable
over the next few years. Overall rental and other revenue
7
<PAGE> 9
for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 of $2,069,550 increased by 6% from
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 from $1,953,749 due to the factors
detailed above affecting the Specified Properties.
Expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, attributable to
Springdale Apartments of $682,425 were approximately 19% lower than expenses for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 of $841,120 due primarily to the
elimination of depreciation expense partially offset by higher property
operating and maintenance, and general and administrative expenses. In the
latter part of 1997, Springdale Apartments was reclassified to "Assets Held for
Sale" which resulted in the suspension of the recognition of depreciation
expense pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121
"Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of".
Property operating and maintenance expenses are higher due to increased
janitorial costs, water and sewer, and the recognition of appliance replacement
and other similar costs as a current period expense, which normally would be
treated as additions to investment in real estate but for the restrictions of
doing so as set forth in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121,
offset by reduced heating fuel and rubbish removal, grounds maintenance, and
general repair costs. Current period janitorial expenses are higher due to
staffing shortages during the first half of 1997. Water and sewer expenses are
higher due to improved current period occupancy levels as compared to the same
period one year ago and understated fourth quarter 1997 accrual estimates.
Heating fuel costs are lower due to mild temperatures during the early winter
months of 1998 and overstated fourth quarter 1997 accrual estimates. General and
administrative expenses are higher for the nine months ended September 30, 1998
as compared to the same period one year earlier due to higher advertising,
administrative salaries, bad debt expenses, employer costs, and one time
non-recurring legal and other fees and expenses incurred in connection with the
possible sale of Springdale Apartments partially offset by lower office
administrative costs and real estate taxes. Administrative salaries are higher
due to increased salary levels and full staffing during the current period as
compared to 1997. Employer costs are higher primarily due to overall higher
wages and full staffing during the current period. One-time, nonrecurring
property disposition costs and legal fees are currently being recognized as the
result of the property disposition and litigation expenses incurred in
connection with a proposed sale of the Springdale Apartments that was not
completed. The litigation was settled in June 1998. The Partnership continues to
classify the Springdale Apartments as being held for sale, but is not presently
in negotiations with any prospective buyer. Real estate tax expense is lower as
the result of a legislative reduction of tax rates.
Expenses attributable to Gold Coast Storage for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 of $638,440 are 13% higher compared to expenses for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 of $567,091. Property operating and maintenance
expenses are higher in 1998 as compared to the first nine months of 1997 due to
increased water and sewer, and heating and ventilation system and structural
repairs offset by lower janitorial/maintenance payroll, heating fuel and
electricity costs, and grounds maintenance. As is the case with the increased
water and sewer costs, which was caused by a water leak, the fluctuations in
property operating and maintenance expenses identified above are not significant
or are the of result individual one-time occurrences. Depreciation expense is
higher during the current period due to additions to investment in real estate
during 1997. General and administrative expenses during the first nine months of
1998 are 20% higher compared to 1997 due to increased advertising costs,
administrative salaries, bad debt expenses, and real estate taxes, partially
offset by reduced property insurance expense. Advertising costs are higher
because nine third-party contract advertiser payments were made during the
current nine month period while only eight such payments were made during the
nine month period ended September 30, 1997. Administrative salaries are higher
because current period staff vacancies were filled by using temporary agency
personnel due to shortages of qualified personnel in the open market. Use of
temporary agencies is more expensive than conventional employee costs because
agency personnel rates include agency overhead and profit margin. Bad debt
expense is higher in part due to higher rental rates and occupancy rates, both
of which contribute to higher delinquency values, and due to a greater than
normal number of accounts which have become uncollectible. Real estate tax
expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 reflected a refund of prior
year taxes while the current period does not reflect a similar refund.
Management fees are higher due to increased revenue.
8
<PAGE> 10
Overall expenses incurred by the Specified Properties for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 of $1,320,865 decreased approximately 6.2% from
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 of $1,408,211 primarily as a result of
a combination of the foregoing factors affecting the Specified Properties.
Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 of $472,650
from Springdale Apartments increased significantly from the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 of $290,390 due primarily to increased rental revenue, the
elimination of depreciation expense offset by increased property operating and
maintenance, and general and administrative expenses. Net income for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 of $276,034 from Gold Coast Storage increased
8.2% as compared to net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 of
$255,148 due to increased rental revenue offset by higher property operating and
maintenance, depreciation, and general and administrative expenses, and
management fees.
Interest income earned by the Partnership for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 of $31,757 increased slightly from the nine months ended one
year earlier of $30,777. Administrative expenses incurred by the Partnership for
the nine months ended September 30, 1998 of $47,846 are lower as compared to one
year earlier expenses of $55,454 primarily due to a timing difference in the
payment of accounting and tax service fees.
Overall net income for the nine months ended September 30, 1998 of
$732,595 increased significantly from the nine months ended September 30, 1997
of $520,861 due to increased rental revenue at the Specified Properties and
decreased expenses at the Springdale Apartments partially offset by increased
expenses at Gold Coast.
Net cash flows provided by operations for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998 was $838,452 compared to net cash flows provided by
operations of $783,722 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
The change was primarily the result of a decrease in accounts receivable and
prepaid expenses, and an increase in tenant security deposit liabilities offset
by a reduction in accounts payable and accrued expenses. Additions to investment
in real estate at the Specified Properties decreased to $38,612 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1998 compared to $101,009 for the same period one
year ago. Additions to investment in real estate during 1998 at Gold Coast
Storage during the first nine months of 1998 included the addition of signage
and heating and ventilating system improvements. As discussed above, Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 requires that all expenditures be
immediately expensed, therefore there were no additions to investment in real
estate during 1998 at Springdale Apartments. Distributions to Limited Partners
during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 totaled $725,209 compared to
distributions of $732,293 during the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The
General Partners anticipate that distributions to Limited Partners will remain
at the current level for the remainder of 1998 and during 1999 provided that
revenues and expenses remain stable.
The Partnership's internal operations use a significant number of
computer software programs and operating systems. To the extent that these
software applications contain code that is unable to appropriately interpret the
upcoming calendar year 2000, some level of modification or possibly even
replacement of such source code or applications will be necessary. The
Partnership is in the process of identifying the software applications that are
not "Year 2000" compliant. Given the information known at this time about the
Partnership's ongoing efforts to upgrade and maintain critical business systems
as necessary, it is currently not anticipated that the "Year 2000" issue or
related costs will have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's business,
financial condition, and results of operations. However, the Partnership is
still analyzing its software applications and those utilized by key suppliers
and, to the extent they are not fully "Year 2000" compliant, there can be no
assurance that the costs necessary to update software and potential systems
interruptions would not have a material adverse effect on the Partnership's
business, financial condition, and results of operation.
