INLAND LAND APPRECIATION FUND, L.P.
(a limited partnership)
Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 1999
(unaudited)
Readers of this Quarterly Report should refer to the Partnership's audited
financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998, which are
included in the Partnership's 1998 Annual Report, as certain footnote
disclosures which would duplicate those contained in such audited financial
statements have been omitted from this Report.
(1) Organization and Basis of Accounting
The Registrant, Inland Land Appreciation Fund, L.P. (the "Partnership"), was
formed in October 1987, pursuant to the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act, to invest in undeveloped land on an all-cash basis and realize
appreciation of such land upon resale. On October 12, 1988, the Partnership
commenced an Offering of 10,000 (subject to increase to 30,000) Limited
Partnership Units ("Units") pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11
under the Securities Act of 1933. Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation is
the General Partner. The Offering terminated on October 6, 1989, with total
sales of 30,000 Units, at $1,000 per Unit, not including the General Partner or
the Initial Limited Partner. All of the holders of these Units have been
admitted to this Partnership. The Limited Partners of the Partnership share in
their portion of benefits of ownership of the Partnership's real property
investments according to the number of Units held. As of March 31, 1999, the
Partnership has repurchased a total of 394.75 Units for $350,868 from various
Limited Partners through the Unit Repurchase Program. Under this program
Limited Partners may under certain circumstances have their Units repurchased
for an amount equal to their Invested Capital.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Offering costs have been offset against the Limited Partners' capital accounts.
The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Such investments are
carried at cost which approximates market. Cash and cash equivalents are
approximately $1,343,000 and $1,134,000 at March 31, 1999 and December 31,
1998, respectively.
A presentation of information about operating segments as required in Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 "Disclosures About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information" would not be material to an understanding
of the Partnership's business taken as a whole as the Partnership is engaged in
the business of real estate investment which management considers to be a
single operating segment.

Except as described in footnote (b) to Note 3 of these notes, the Partnership
uses the area method of allocation, which approximates the relative sales
method of allocation, whereby a per acre price is used as the standard
allocation method for land purchases and sales. The total cost of the parcel
is divided by the total number of acres to arrive at a per acre price.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 ("SFAS 121") requires the
Partnership to record an impairment loss on its property to be held for
investment whenever its carrying value cannot be fully recovered through
estimated undiscounted future cash flows from their operations and sale. The
amount of the impairment loss to be recognized would be the difference between
the property's carrying value and the property's estimated fair value. The
Partnership has not recognized any such impairment.
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 "Earnings per Share" was
adopted by the Partnership and has been applied to all prior earnings periods
presented in the financial statements. The Partnership has no dilutive
securities.
The Partnership is required to pay a withholding tax to the Internal Revenue
Service with respect to a Partner's allocable share of the Partnership's
taxable net income, if the Partner is a foreign person. The Partnership will
first pay the withholding tax from the distributions to any foreign partner,
and to the extent that the tax exceeds the amount of distributions withheld, or
if there have been no distributions to withhold, the excess will be accounted
for as a distribution to the foreign partner. Withholding tax payments are made
every April, June, September and December.
No provision for Federal income taxes has been made as the liability for such
taxes is that of the partners rather than the Partnership.
In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all the
adjustments necessary, which are of a normal recurring nature, to present
fairly the financial position and results of operations for the periods
presented herein. Results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
results to be expected for the year.

(2) Transactions with Affiliates
The General Partner and its Affiliates are entitled to reimbursement for
salaries and expenses of employees of the General Partner and its Affiliates
relating to the administration of the Partnership. Such costs are included in
professional services and general and administrative expenses to Affiliates, of
which $7,616 and $65,066 were unpaid as of March 31, 1999 and December 31,
1998, respectively.
The General Partner is entitled to receive Asset Management Fees equal to one-
quarter of 1% of the original cost to the Partnership of undeveloped land
annually, limited to a cumulative total over the life of the Partnership of 2%
of the land's original cost to the Partnership. As of June 30, 1998, the
Partnership had met this limit. Such fees of $13,786 have been incurred for the
three months ended March 31, 1998 and are included in land operating expenses
to Affiliates, of which $81,136 was unpaid as of December 31, 1998. No such
fees were incurred in 1999.
An Affiliate of the General Partner performed marketing and advertising
services for the Partnership and was reimbursed (as set forth under terms of
the Partnership Agreement) for direct costs. Such costs of $27,149 and $27,327
have been incurred and are included in marketing expenses to Affiliates for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. As of March 31, 1999
and December 31, 1998, $10,000 and $14,829, respectively, were unpaid.
An Affiliate of the General Partner performed property upgrades, rezoning,
annexation and other activities to prepare the Partnership's land investments
for sale and was reimbursed (as set forth under terms of the Partnership
Agreement) for salaries and direct costs. The Affiliate did not recognize a
profit on any project. Such costs are included in investments in land, all of
which have been paid.

(a) Included in the purchase agreement of Parcel 5 was a condition that
required the Partnership to buy an option to purchase an additional 243
acres immediately to the west of this parcel. The sale transaction relates
to the sale of this option.
(b) The Partnership purchased from two third parties, two sets of three
contiguous parcels of land (Parcels 6, 7 and 8; and Parcels 9, 10 and 11).
The General Partner believes that the total value of this land will be
maximized if it is treated and marketed to buyers as six separate parcels
and closed the transactions as six separate purchases to facilitate this.
Parcels 6, 7 and 8 will be treated as one parcel and Parcels 9, 10 and 11
will be treated as one parcel for purposes of computing Parcel Capital (as
defined) and distributions to the Partners.

(5) Mortgage Loans Receivable
As a result of the sale of the remaining approximately 81 acres of Parcel 1 for
a sales price of $5,750,000 on December 29, 1997, the purchaser assumed the
note payable to an Affiliate on this parcel totaling $3,325,515 and the

(6) Notes Payable to Affiliate
Through December 30, 1998, the General Partner had made additional loans to the
Partnership totaling $2,670,400. Net sales proceeds totaling $1,849,815 from
Parcels 1, 4, 12, 15, 20, 23, and 24 were previously retained and used to fund
pre-development activity on certain of the Partnership's land investments. In
July 1997, the Partnership distributed these net sales proceeds by obtaining a
loan from the General Partner. The remainder of funds loaned to the
Partnership were for Partnership operations. The note accrued interest at 10%
per annum and had a maturity date of January 1, 1999. On December 30, 1998,
this note was paid in full by the Partnership. For the year ended December 31,
1998, interest of $263,428 was capitalized, of which $114,266 was unpaid as of
December 31, 1998.
On December 31, 1998, the Partnership obtained a loan from the General Partner
in the amount of $2,493,750 solely collateralized by Parcel 5. The note
accrues interest at 7.2% and has a maturity date of December 29, 2001. For the
three months ended March 31, 1999, interest of $44,888 was capitalized, of
which $14,464 was unpaid as of March 31, 1999.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Certain statements in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this quarterly report on
Form 10-Q constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-
looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other
factors which may cause the Partnership's actual results, performance or
achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or
achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These
factors include, among other things, federal, state or local regulations;
adverse changes in general economic or local conditions; inability of borrower
to meet financial obligations; uninsured losses; and potential conflicts of
interest between the Partnership and its Affiliates, including the General
Partner.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On October 12, 1988, the Partnership commenced an Offering of 10,000 (subject
to increase to 30,000) Limited Partnership Units pursuant to a Registration
Statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933. On October 6, 1989,
the Offering terminated with a total of 30,000 Units sold to the public at
$1,000 per Unit resulting in $30,000,000 in gross offering proceeds, which does
not include the Initial Limited Partner and the General Partner. All of the
holders of these Units have been admitted to the Partnership. The Limited
Partners of the Partnership share in their portion of benefits of ownership of
the Partnership's real property investments according to the number of Units
held.
The Partnership used $25,187,069 of gross offering proceeds to purchase on an
all-cash basis twenty-five parcels of undeveloped land and an option to
purchase undeveloped land. These investments include the payment of the
purchase price, acquisition fees and acquisition costs of such properties.
Fourteen of the parcels were purchased during 1989 and eleven during 1990. As
of March 31, 1999, the Partnership has had multiple sales transactions, through
which it has disposed of approximately 820 acres of the approximately 3,102
acres originally owned. As of March 31, 1999, cumulative distributions to the
Limited Partners have totaled $9,422,838 (which represents a return of Invested
Capital, as defined in the Partnership Agreement) and $153,743 to the General
Partner. Through March 31, 1999, the Partnership has used $10,974,375 of
working capital reserve for rezoning and other activities. Such amounts have
been capitalized and are included in investments in land.
The Partnership's capital needs and resources will vary depending upon a number
of factors, including the extent to which the Partnership conducts rezoning and
other activities relating to utility access, the installation of roads,
subdivision and/or annexation of land to a municipality, changes in real estate
taxes affecting the Partnership's land, and the amount of revenue received from
leasing. As of March 31, 1999, the Partnership owns, in whole or in part,
nineteen of its twenty-five original parcels, the majority of which are leased
to local farmers and are generating sufficient cash flow from farm leases to
cover property taxes and insurance.
-15-
At March 31, 1999, the Partnership had cash and cash equivalents of $1,342,501,
of which approximately $46,750 is reserved for the repurchase of Units through
the Unit Repurchase Program. The remaining $1,295,751 is available to be used
for Partnership expenses and liabilities, cash distributions to partners and
other activities with respect to some or all of its land parcels. The
Partnership has increased its parcel sales effort in anticipation of rising
land values.
The Partnership plans to enhance the value of its land through pre-development
activities such as rezoning annexation and land planning. The Partnership has
already been successful in, or is in the process of pre-development activity on
a majority of the Partnership's land investments. Parcels 4, 6 and 7 have
completed one phase of improvements for an industrial park and sites are being
marketed. Parcels 16, 21 and 23 have been zoned with development and sales
marketing underway. The Partnership sold the remaining acres of Parcels 1, 15
and 21 to unaffiliated third-parties (see Note 3 of the Notes to Financial
Statements.)
Results of Operations
Income from the sale of investments in land and improvements and the cost of
land sold for the three months ended March 31, 1999 is the result of the sale
of approximately 28 acres of Parcel 17. Income from the sale of investments in
land and improvements and the cost of land sold for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 is the result of the sale of approximately three acres,
including the sale of two lots of Parcel 15 and one lot of Parcel 21.
As of March 31, 1999, the Partnership owned nineteen parcels of land consisting
of approximately 2,274 acres. Of the 2,274 acres owned, approximately 2,043
acres are tillable, leased to local farmers and generate sufficient cash flow
to cover property taxes, insurance and other miscellaneous expenses.
Interest income increased for the three months ended March 31, 1999, as
compared to the three months ended March 31, 1998, due primarily as a result of
the interest income earned on the mortgage loans receivable the Partnership
received from the sales of the remaining acreage of Parcels 1, 15 and 21. See
Note 5 of the Notes to Financial Statements for further discussion of the terms
of the mortgage loans receivable received from these sales. In addition, for
the three months ended March 31, 1999, there was more cash available for
investing due to the payments received on the mortgage loans receivable during
1998 and 1999.
Professional services to Affiliates decreased for the three months ended March
31, 1999, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1998, due to a
decrease in legal services and accounting services.
General and administrative expenses to Affiliates increased for the three
months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to the three months ended March 31,
1998, due to increases in postage and data processing expenses. General and
administrative expenses to non-affiliates increased for the three months ended
March 31, 1999, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1998, due to an
increase in the Illinois Replacement Tax.
-16-
Marketing expenses to non-affiliates decreased for the three months ended March
31, 1999, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1998, due to a
decrease in advertising and travel expenses relating to marketing the land
portfolio to prospective purchasers.
Land operating expenses to Affiliates decreased for the three months ended
March 31, 1999, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1998, due to a
decrease in Asset Management Fees incurred. Asset Management Fees are limited
to a cumulative total over the life of the Partnership of 2% of the land's
original cost. As of June 30, 1998, the Partnership had met this limit. Land
operating expenses to non-affiliates decreased for the three months ended March
31, 1999, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 1998, due to a
decrease in maintenance and utility expenses of the Partnership's land
investments.
Year 2000 Issues
GENERAL
- -------
Many computer operating systems and software applications were designed such
that the year 1999 is the maximum date that can be processed accurately. In
conducting business, the Partnership relies on computers and operating systems
provided by equipment manufacturers, and also on application software developed
internally and, to a limited extent, by outside software vendors. The
Partnership has assessed its vulnerability to the so-called "Year-2000 Issue"
with respect to its equipment and computer systems.
STATE OF READINESS
- ------------------
The Partnership has identified the following two areas for "Year-2000"
compliance efforts:
Business Computer Systems: The majority of the Partnership's information
technology systems were developed internally and include accounting, lease
management, investment portfolio tracking, and tax return preparation. The
Partnership has rights to the source code for these applications and employs
programmers who are knowledgeable regarding these systems. The process of
testing these internal systems to determine year 2000 compliance is nearly
complete. The Partnership does not anticipate any material costs relating to
its business computer systems regarding year 2000 compliance since the
Partnership's critical hardware and software systems use four digits to
represent the applicable year. The Partnership does use various computers, so-
called "PC's", that may run software that may not use four digits to represent
the applicable year. The Partnership is in the process of testing the PC
hardware and software to determine year 2000 compliance, but it must be noted
that such PC's are incidental to the Partnership's critical systems. The
Partnership is considering independent testing of its critical systems.
-17-
Suppliers and other Parties: The Partnership is in the process of surveying
suppliers and other parties with whom the Partnership does a significant amount
of business to identify the Partnership's potential exposure in the event such
parties are not year 2000 compliant in a timely manner. At this time, the
Partnership is not aware of any party that is anticipating a material Year 2000
compliance issue. However, since this area involves some parties over which
the Partnership has no control, such as public utility companies, it is
difficult, at best, to judge the status of the outside companies' year 2000
compliance. The Partnership is working closely with all suppliers of goods and
services in an effort to minimize the impact of the failure of any supplier to
become year 2000 compliant by December 31, 1999. The Partnership's
investigations and assessments of possible year 2000 issues are in a
preliminary stage, and currently the Partnership is not aware of any material
impact on its business, operations or financial condition even if one or more
parties is not Year 2000 compliant in a timely manner, due to the number and
nature of the Partnership's diverse supplier base.
YEAR 2000 RISKS
- ---------------
The most reasonable likely worst case scenario for the Partnership with respect
to the year 2000 non-compliance of its business computer systems would be the
inability to access information which could result in the failure to issue
financial reports.
YEAR 2000 COSTS
- ---------------
The Partnership's General Partner and its Affiliates estimate that costs to
achieve year 2000 compliance will not exceed $100,000. However, only
approximately 1% of these costs will be directly allocated to and paid by the
Partnership. The balance of the year 2000 compliance costs, approximately 99%,
will be paid by the General Partner and its Affiliates. Total year 2000
compliance costs incurred through December 31, 1998 were approximately $5,000.
CONTINGENCY PLAN
- ----------------
The Partnership expects to be Year 2000 compliant in advance of the year 2000.
The Partnership will continue to monitor its progress and state of readiness,
and is in the process of formulating a contingency plan which the Partnership
will be prepared to adopt with respect to areas in which evidence arises that
it may not become Year 2000 compliant in sufficient time. With respect to its
suppliers and other parties with whom the Partnership conducts business, the
Partnership does not yet have sufficient information to identify the types of
problems it may encounter in the event these third parties are not Year 2000
compliant. As information is obtained that may indicate such parties may not
become Year 2000 compliant in sufficient time, the Partnership is prepared to
develop contingency plans, accordingly.
