NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 1996
(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. ORGANIZATION
In February 1996, the name of the General Partner was changed from Fidelity
Leasing Corporation to F.L. Partnership Management, Inc.
2. EQUIPMENT LEASED
Equipment on lease consists primarily of computer equipment under operating
leases. A majority of the equipment was manufactured by IBM. The lessees
have agreements with the manufacturer to provide maintenance for the leased
equipment. The Fund's operating leases are for initial lease terms of 11
to 49 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 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
Genreally 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, $550,095 and $50,000 was charged to write-
down of equipment to net realizable value for the three months ended March
31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Any future losses are dependent upon
unanticipated technological developments affecting the computer equipment
industry in subsequent years.
The Fund also has equipment leased under the direct financing method in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13. This
method provides for recognition of income (the excess of the aggregate
future rentals and estimated additional amounts recoverable upon expira-
tion of the lease over the related equipment cost) over the life of the
lease using the interest method.
The net investment in direct financing leases as of March 31, 1996 is
as follows:
Net minimum lease payments to be received $735,000
Less unearned income 92,000
Add expected future residuals -

$643,000

3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The General Partner receives 5% or 2% of gross rental payments from equip-
ment under operating leases and full pay-out leases, respectively, for
administrative and management services performed on behalf of the Fund.
Full pay-out leases are noncancellable leases for which rental payments
during the initial term are at least sufficient to recover the purchase
price of the equipment, including acquisition fees. This management fee
is paid monthly only if and when the the Limited Partners have received
distributions for the period from January 1, 1990 through the end of the
most recent quarter equal to a return for such period at a rate of 12% per
year on the aggregate amount paid for their units.
The General Partner may also receive up to 3% of the proceeds from the
sale of the Fund's equipment for services and activities to be performed
in connection with the disposition of equipment.
Additionally, the General Partner and its affiliates are reimbursed by the
Fund for certain costs of services and materials used by or for the Fund
except those items covered by the above-mentioned fees. Following is a
summary of fees and costs of services and materials charged by the General
Partner or its affiliates during the three months ended March 31:

Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Fidelity Leasing Income Fund VI, L.P. had revenues of $1,187,004 and
$1,938,284 for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Rental income from the leasing of computer peripheral equipment accounted for
87% and 74% of total revenues for the first quarter of 1996 and 1995, respec-
tively. The decrease in total revenues in 1996 is primarily attributable to a
decrease in rental income. During the three months ended March 31, 1996, rental
income decreased by approximately $1,131,000 because of equipment which came
off lease and was re-leased at lower rental rates or sold. This decrease,
however, was reduced by approximately $739,000 of rents generated from
equipment purchases made since March of 1995. Additionally, the Fund
recognized a net gain on sale of equipment of $100,112 during the quarter ended
March 31, 1996 as compared to $386,988 for the quarter ended March 31, 1995
which also contributed to the decrease in total revenues in 1996. Futhermore,
interest income decreased in 1996 because of lower cash balances available for
investment during the first quarter of 1996.
Expenses were $1,444,818 and $1,282,543 for the three months ended
March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Depreciation expense comprised 51% and
84% of total expenses during the first quarter of 1996 and 1995, respectively.
The increase in expenses is primarily related to the increase in the write-down
of equipment to net realizable value. Based upon the quarterly review of the
recoverability of the undepreciated cost of rental equipment, $550,095 was
charged to operations to write down equipment to its estimated net realizable
value during the three months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to $50,000 for
the three months ended March 31, 1995. Any future losses are dependent upon
unanticipated technological developments affecting the computer equipment
industry in subsequent years. The overall increase in expenses was reduced by
the decrease in depreciation expense in the first quarter of 1996.
Depreciation expense decreased because of equipment which came off lease and
was terminated or sold since the first quarter of 1995.
For the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, the Fund had net income
(loss) of ($257,814) and $655,741, respectively. The earnings (loss) per
equivalent limited partnership unit, after earnings (loss) allocated to the
General Partner, were ($8.34) and $16.88 based on a weighted average number of
equivalent limited partnership units outstanding of 30,598 and 38,099 for the
three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
The Fund generated funds from operations of $933,092 and $1,398,590, for
the purpose of determining cash available for distribution and distributed 8%
and 30% of these amounts during the first quarter of 1996 and 1995,
respectively and 8% and 59% of these amounts in April and May 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Fund will continue to purchase computer equipment with cash available
from operations which is not distributed to partners. The Fund purchased
$475,999 and $2,655,423 of equipment during the three months ended March
31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
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.
