Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Rental income decreased from $4,558,004 for the period ended December
31, 1995, to $3,096,716 for the year ended December 31, 1996. This
decrease resulted because equipment that came off lease during 1995 and
1996 was subsequently sold and did not generate as much income in 1996 as
it had in 1995. Equipment with a book value of $1,584,696 was sold for a
gain of $1,096,310 during the year ended December 31, 1996. Interest
income decreased during the year ended December 31, 1996, as compared to
1995 because cash available for investment was less than it was in 1995.
Interest expense decreased from $350,757 for the period ended December
31, 1995, to $139,402 for the year ended December 31, 1996. This resulted
from a decreased average level of debt during the period. Management fee
expense decreased because rental income decreased. Depreciation expense
decreased for the year ended December 31, 1996 versus 1995, because the
Partnership had a lower depreciable basis of equipment during 1996 due to
sales.
The net effect of the above revenue and expense items generated net
income of $1,580,331 for the year ended December 31, 1996, compared to a
net income of $3,269,481 for the year ended December 31, 1995.
Notes payable decreased during the year ended December 31, 1996, due
to $2,194,812 principal payments on notes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The primary sources of funds for the year ended December 31, 1996 were
$2,646,584 of cash from operations, $2,516,686 of sales proceeds, and Cash
and Cash Equivalents at December 31, 1995. These sources were used to pay
operating expenses and to make $2,194,812 of note payments and $2,761,050
of distributions. As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership had $947,493 of
Cash and Cash Equivalents.
Actual cash distributions amounted to $2,761,050 in 1996, $6,844,803
in 1995, and $7,653,545 in 1994.
In the opinion of the General Partners there are no material trends,
favorable or unfavorable, in the Partnership's capital resources and these
resources will be sufficient to meet the Partnership's needs for the
foreseeable future.
Short-term liquidity requirements consist of funds needed to meet
administrative expenses and debt retirement. These short-term needs will
be funded by cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 1996, and rental
income and sales proceeds received in 1997. As the Partnership's remaining
lease expires during 1997, the Partnership is winding down its operations.
Dissolution will occur when the Partnership's last asset is sold.
In the opinion of the General Partners, the Partnership has sufficient
funds or sources of funds to remain liquid for the remaining life of the
Partnership. The General Partners are not aware of any trends that
significantly affect the Partnership's liquidity.
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Partners of
Cypress Equipment Fund, Ltd.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Cypress Equipment
Fund, Ltd. as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of
operations, partners' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1996. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cypress
Equipment Fund, Ltd. as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of
its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
basic financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules listed under
Item 14 are presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and
Exchange Commission's rules and are not part of the basic financial
statements. These schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion,
fairly state in all material respects the financial data required to be set
forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.
As discussed in Note 9, the Partnership is winding down its operation.

CYPRESS EQUIPMENT FUND, LTD.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 1996
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION
Cypress Equipment Fund, Ltd. (the "Partnership"), a Florida limited
partnership, was formed March 3, 1989, for the purpose of acquiring and
leasing transportation, manufacturing, industrial and other equipment. The
Partnership commenced operations on December 1, 1989 and will terminate on
December 31, 2010, or sooner, in accordance with the terms of the Limited
Partnership Agreement. The Partnership has received Limited and General
Partners' capital contributions of $24,054,000 and $2,000, respectively.
Cypress Equipment Management Corporation, a California corporation and
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cypress Leasing Corporation, is the Managing
General Partner; RJ Leasing - 2, Inc., a Florida corporation and a second-
tier subsidiary of Raymond James Financial, Inc., is the Administrative
General Partner; and Raymond James Partners, Inc., a Florida corporation
and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Raymond James Financial, Inc., is the
other General Partner.
Cash distributions, subject to payment of the equipment management
fees, and profits and losses of the Partnership shall be allocated 99% to
the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners. The General Partners
are being paid an incentive management fee equal to 3.4593% of the cash
available for distribution to the extent that an individual Limited
Partner's share of such distribution causes that individual Limited
Partner's cumulative cash distributions to exceed that Limited Partner's
capital contribution. For those Limited Partners who have received
cumulative cash distributions equal to his capital contributions plus an
amount equal to 8% of adjusted capital contributions per annum, the General
Partners are being paid a management fee equaling 23.4593% of cash
available for distributions and an equipment resale fee for the sales price
of the equipment times the lesser of one half of any brokerage fee paid for
services in connection with the sale of equipment or 3%.
NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The Partnership utilizes the accrual basis of accounting whereby
revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized as
obligations when incurred.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
It is the Partnership's policy to include all money market funds,
commercial paper, and banker's acceptances with an original maturity of
three months or less in Cash and Cash Equivalents.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Partnership to
concentrations of credit risks consist principally of cash investments and
rents receivable. The cash investments are placed in high credit quality
financial institutions and in a money market mutual fund that is managed by
a wholly-owned subsidiary of Raymond James Financial, Inc. The Partnership
receives rental income exclusively from lessees. Management does not
believe that significant credit risk exits in relation to these accounts at
December 31, 1996.
The Partnership maintains deposits in excess of federally insured
limits. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 105 requires
disclosure regardless of the degree of risk.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates that affect
certain reported amounts and disclosures. These estimates are based on
management's knowledge and experience. Accordingly, actual results could
differ from these estimates.
Offering and Commission Costs
Offering and commission costs were charged against Limited Partners'
Equity upon admission of Limited Partners.
Leases
The Partnership accounts for its leases in accordance with the
operating method. Under the operating method of accounting, the leased
equipment is recorded as an asset at cost and depreciated on the declining
balance method using an eight to twelve year life. Rental income is
recognized ratably over the terms of the leases.
The Partnership's policy is to periodically review the estimated
future rental income including remarketing of its leased equipment ("Future
Revenues"). Should such review indicate that estimated Future Revenues
will not exceed expenses including depreciation in any future period, the
Partnership will revise its depreciation policy as appropriate.
Rental Equipment Held for Sale
The Partnership's policy is to periodically review the market value of
Rental Equipment Held for Sale with its net book value. Should such a
review indicate that the net book value exceeds the market value, an
additional write down will be taken. The net book value of Rental
Equipment Held for Sale exceeded market value resulting in a write down of
$450,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996.
Income Taxes
Federal and state income tax regulations provide that taxes on the
income or loss of the Partnership are reportable by the Partners in their
individual income tax returns. Accordingly, no provision for such taxes
has been made.
Per Unit Computations
Per unit computations are based on the number of $1,000 limited
partnership units outstanding as follows: 24,054 units outstanding for the
period from January 1, 1994 through December 31, 1996.
Reclassifications
For comparability, the 1994 and 1995 figures have been reclassified
where appropriate to conform to the financial statement presentation used
in 1996.
NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
General Partners
The General Partners have contributed a total of $2,000 to the
Partnership.
Equipment management fees of $120,540, $153,163, and $258,657 (5% of
gross rentals from rental equipment subject to operating leases, 2% of
gross rentals from rental equipment subject to full payout leases, or 1% of
gross rentals from rental equipment subject to operating leases for which
the Administrative and Managing General Partners arrange for and actively
supervise the performance of services); incentive management fees of
$154,586, $79,834, and $0; and equipment resale fees of $212,581, $0, and
$0 were paid or accrued to the Administrative and Managing General Partners
in 1996, 1995, and 1994, respectively. Gross rentals for purposes of
calculating equipment management fees include cash revenues received by the
Partnership subsequent to the date of purchase, including cash revenues
that relate to periods prior to the date of purchase.
Affiliates of the General Partner
The following amounts were paid or accrued to affiliates of the
Administrative General Partner: $49,504 in 1996, $40,855 in 1995, and
$29,161 in 1994 for reimbursement of general and administrative expenses on
an accountable basis.
In December 1993, Cypress Leasing Corporation, parent of the Managing
General Partner, purchased a group of assets from the seller of the initial
specified equipment, including the seller's right to receive 15% of the net
