                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                March 31, 1998

                                  (Unaudited)

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared
by the Fund in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commis-
sion.  In the opinion of Management, all adjustments (consisting of normal 
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.

1.  EQUIPMENT LEASED

    Equipment on lease consists primarily of computer equipment under operating
    leases.  The lessees have agreements with the manufacturer of the equipment
    to provide maintenance for the leased equipment.  The Fund's operating
    leases are for initial lease terms of 9 to 52 months.  Generally, operating
    leases will not recover all of the undepreciated cost and related expenses
    of its rental equipment during the initial lease terms and the Fund is
    prepared to remarket the equipment in future years.  Fund policy is to
    review quarterly the expected economic life of its rental consists
    primarily of computer equipment under operating leases. equipment in order
    to determine the recoverability of its undepreciated cost.  Recent and
    anticipated technological developments affecting computer equipment and
    competitive factors in the marketplace are considered among other things,
    as part of this review. In accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting
    Principles, the Fund writes down its rental equipment to its estimated net
    realizable value when the amounts are reasonably estimated and only
    recognizes gains upon actual sale of its rental equipment.  As a result,
    $47,411 was charged to write-down of equipment to net realizable value for
    the three months ended March 31, 1997.  There was no charge to write-down
    of equipment to net realizable value for the three months ended March 31,
    1998.  Any future losses are dependent upon unanticipated technological
    developments affecting the computer equipment industry in subsequent years.

    The future approximate minimum rentals to be received on noncancellable
    operating leases as of March 31, 1998 are as follows:

    of 12% per year on the aggregate amount paid for their units.

Item 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

    Fidelity Leasing Income Fund V, L.P. had revenues of $991,914 and 
$797,971 for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. 
Rental income from the leasing of computer equipment accounted for 
90% and 94% of total revenues for the first quarter of 1998 and 1997, respec-
tively.  The increase in revenues is primarily attributable to the increase in 
rental income.  In 1998, rental income increased by approximately $320,000
because of rents generated from equipment purchased since the first quarter of
1997.  This increase, however, was reduced by approximately $175,000 because of
equipment which came off lease and was re-leased at lower rental rates or sold.
Additionally, the Fund recognized a net gain on sale of equipment of $54,500
for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 compared to no gain on sale of equipment
for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, which also contributed to the increase in
revenues in 1998.

    Expenses were $822,193 and $728,555 during the three months ended March 
31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.  Depreciation expense comprised 85% and 76% of 
total expenses during the first quarter of 1998 and 1997, respectively.  The 
increase in expenses between 1998 and 1997 is primarily attributable to an 
increase in depreciation expense because of equipment purchased since March
1997.  However, the decrease in write-down of equipment to net realizable value
helped mitigate the overall increase in expenses.  Based upon the review of the
recoverability of the undepreciated cost of rental equipment, there was no
charge to operations to write down equipment to its estimated net realizable
value for the three months ended March 31, 1998 as compared to $47,411 charged 
to write-down of equipment to net realizable value for the three months ended 
March 31, 1997.  Any future losses are dependent upon unanticipated 
technological developments affecting the computer equipment industry in
subsequent years.  Additionally, the Fund recognized a net gain on sale of 
equipment for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 as discussed above but incurred 
a net loss on sale of equipment of $20,263 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 
which also reduced the increase in overall expenses in 1998.

	For the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Fund's net income
was $169,721 and $69,416, respectively.  The earnings per equivalent limited
partnership unit, after earnings allocated to the General Partner were $6.65
and $2.71 based on a weighted average number of equivalent limited partnership
units outstanding of 25,267 and 25,048 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively.

    The Fund generated cash from operations of $810,172 and $690,573, for 
the purpose of determining cash available for distribution and distributed 
$150,000 to partners in both May 1998 and 1997 for the first quarter of 1998
and 1997.  A cash distribution of $150,000 was paid to partners during the 
first quarter of 1998 for the three months ended December 31, 1997.  For 
financial statement purposes, the Fund records cash distributions to partners 
on a cash basis in the period in which they are paid.

Item 2:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

    The Fund continues the process of dissolution during 1998.  As provided in 
the Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, the assets of the Fund shall be 
liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining their fair value.  
During this time, the Fund will continue to purchase equipment with 
cash available from operations which was not distributed to partners for terms 
consistent with the plan of dissolution.  During the quarter ended March 31, 
1998 and 1997, the Fund purchased $2,109,553 and $1,023,759 of equipment, 
respectively.

    Subsequent to March 31, 1998, the Fund purchased $671,898 of equipment for 
lease.

    The cash position of the Fund is reviewed daily and cash is invested on a 
short-term basis.

    The Fund's cash from operations is expected to continue to be adequate to 
cover all operating expenses and contingencies during the next twelve month 
period.
