Interim financial statements:
The unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in
the opinion of the general partners, necessary to a fair statement of financial
position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. All such

Partnership), was formed under the laws of the State of California on September
30, 1987, for the purpose of acquiring equipment to engage in equipment leasing
and sales activities. Contributions in the amount of $600 were received as of
September 30, 1987, $100 of which represented the General Partners' continuing
interest, and $500 of which represented the Initial Limited Partner's capital
investment.
3. Investment in leases:

Agreement of Limited Partnership .

<PAGE>
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Partnership cash which has been received, but which has not yet been invested in
leased equipment or distributed to partners, is invested in interest-bearing
accounts or high-quality/short-term commercial paper.
The partnership's primary source of liquidity is cash received from lease
rentals. The liquidity of the partnership will vary in the future, increasing to
the extent cash flows from leases exceed expenses and decreasing as lease assets
are acquired, as distributions are made to the limited partners and to the
extent expenses exceed cash flows from leases.
The partnership currently has available adequate reserves to meet contingencies,
but in the event those reserves were found to be inadequate, the partnership
would likely be in a position to borrow against its current portfolio to meet
such requirements. The general partners envision no such requirements for
operating purposes, nor have they explored with lenders the possibility of
obtaining loans. There can be no assurance as to the terms of any such financing
or that the partnership will be able to obtain such loans.
All of the Partnership's non-recourse debt is paid by lease payments assigned to
the lenders. The assigned lease payments match the required payments on the debt
and such payments fully amortize the debt.
As of June 30, 1996, the partnership had borrowed approximately $21,700,000. The
remaining unpaid balance on those borrowings was $2,316,581. The borrowings are
non-recourse to the partnership, that is, the only recourse of the lender will
be to the equipment or corresponding lease acquired with the loan proceeds. The
general partners expect that aggregate borrowings in the future will decrease as
a percentage of equipment cost. In any event, the Agreement of Limited
Partnership limits such borrowings to 40% of the total cost of equipment, in
aggregate.
No commitments of capital have been or are expected to be made other than for
the acquisition of additional equipment. There were no such commitments at June
30, 1995.
The Partnership made distributions of cash from 1996 first and second quarter
operations in April and July 1996, respectively. The amounts of these
distributions were each $6.50 per Unit. These distributions represent an
annualized distribution rate of 5.2%.
If inflation in the general economy becomes significant, it may affect the
partnership inasmuch as the residual (resale) values and rates on re-leases of
the Partnership's leased assets may increase as the costs of similar assets
increase. However, the partnership's revenues from existing leases would not
increase, as such rates are generally fixed for the terms of the leases without
adjustment for inflation.
If interest rates increase or decrease significantly, the lease rates that the
partnership can obtain on future leases will be expected to increase or decrease
in parallel as the cost of capital is a significant factor in the pricing of
lease financing. Leases already in place, for the most part, would not be
affected by changes in interest rates.

<PAGE>
Cash flows, six months, 1996 vs. 1995
In the first six months of 1996, the Partnership's primary source of cash flows
from operations was lease rents, particularly operating lease rents. Cash flows
from operations decreased by $1,006,333. The Partnership's operating lease
revenues declined by $502,574 compared to 1995 and direct financing lease
revenues declined by $57,598. These decreases are a result of scheduled lease
terminations and subsequent sales of the underlying lease assets since the
second quarter of 1995.
Cash flows from investing activities declined from $2,432,798 in 1995 to
$880,987 in 1996. Most of the $1,551,811 decrease was due to reduced sales of
lease assets in 1996 compared to 1995. The original cost of assets sold in 1996
was approximately $1,520,000 compared to $5,718,000 in 1995. The proceeds from
the sales of such assets decreased from $1,862,815 in 1995 to $431,159 in 1996.
In 1995, the Partnership sold certain equity securities it had obtained in the
bankruptcy settlement of Financial News Network (FNN), a former lessee of the
Partnership. The proceeds from the sale were $124,879. This represented the
remainder of stock owned by the Partnership and there were no comparable sales
in 1996.
There were no financing sources of cash in the 1996 or 1995 periods. Debt
principal payments have decreased as a result of scheduled debt payments.
Distributions decreased due to the lower per Unit rate of distributions in
January and April 1996 compared to 1995.
Cash flows, three months, 1996 vs. 1995
Lease revenues decreased by $257,546. Lease rentals and the $329,390 received
from asset sales were the largest sources of cash in the second quarter of 1996.
The decrease in lease rents for the three month period was due to asset sales as
noted above for the six month period.
Sources of cash flows from investing activities decreased compared to 1995. As
noted above for the six month period, proceeds from the sales of assets
decreased compared to 1995.
There were no financing sources of cash in the 1996 or 1995 periods. Cash flows
used in financing activities changed in the three month period due to the same
causes as noted above for the six month period.
Results of Operations
The results of operations in future periods may vary significantly from those of
the first six months of 1996 as the partnership's lease portfolio of capital
equipment matures. Revenues from leases are expected to decline over the long
term as leased assets come off lease and are sold or re-leased at lower lease
rates. The effect on net income is not determinable as it will depend to a large
degree on the amounts received from the sales of assets or from re-leases to
either the same or new lessees once the initial lease terms expire.
1996 vs. 1995
Operating lease revenues declined by $502,574 (six months) and $232,529 (three
months) due to lease terminations and asset dispositions during the preceding
twelve months. Direct financing lease revenues decreased by $57,598 (six months)
and $26,007 (three months) compared to 1995. Depreciation expense decreased due
to the asset dispositions discussed under the caption "Capital Resources and
Liquidity". Management fees are related to lease revenues and to distributions.
Both of these factors declined in 1996 compared to 1995, resulting in lower
management fees. Interest expense decreased for both the six and three month
periods due to lower average debt balances than in 1995.
