Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
          Results of Operations

General

Southwest Royalties Institutional Income Fund X-A, L.P. was organized as a
Delaware limited partnership on January 29, 1990. The offering of such
limited partnership interests began May 11, 1990 as part of a shelf offering
registered under the name Southwest Royalties Institutional 1990-91 Income
Program.  Minimum capital requirements for the Partnership were met on July
30, 1990, with the offering of limited partnership interests concluding on
November 30, 1990, with total limited partner contributions of $5,658,000.

The Partnership was formed to acquire royalty and net profits interests in
producing oil and gas properties, to produce and market crude oil and natural
gas produced from such properties, and to distribute the net proceeds from
operations to the limited and general partners.  Net revenues from producing
oil and gas properties will not be reinvested in other revenue producing
assets except to the extent that production facilities and wells are improved
or reworked or where methods are employed to improve or enable more efficient
recovery of oil and gas reserves.

Increases or decreases in Partnership revenues and, therefore, distributions
to partners will depend primarily on changes in the prices received for
production, changes in volumes of production sold, lease operating expenses,
enhanced recovery projects, offset drilling activities pursuant to farmout
arrangements, sales of properties, and the depletion of wells.  Since wells
deplete over time, production can generally be expected to decline from year
to year.

Well operating costs and general and administrative costs usually decrease
with production declines; however, these costs may not decrease
proportionately.  Net income available for distribution to the partners is
therefore expected to fluctuate in later years based on these factors.

Revenues

The Partnership's income from net profits interests increased to $108,102
from $64,257 for the quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, an
increase of 68%.  The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
quarters ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are as follows:

1.  The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
    increased during the quarter ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the
    quarter ended June 30, 1995 by 16%, or $2.75 per barrel, resulting in an
    increase of approximately $28,100 in income from net profits interests. 
    Oil sales represented 85% of total oil and gas sales during the quarter
    ended June 30, 1996 as compared to 88% during the quarter ended June 30,
    1995.

    The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership increased
    during the same period by 36%, or $.63 per mcf, resulting in an increase
    of approximately $8,400 in income from net profits interests.  

    The total increase in income from net profits interests due to the change
    in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately $36,500. 
    The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile over the
    past decade, and management expects a certain amount of volatility to
    continue in the foreseeable future.

2.  Oil production decreased approximately 700 barrels or 7% during the
    quarter ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the quarter ended June 30,
    1995, resulting in a decrease of approximately $14,000 in income from net
    profits interests.

    Gas production increased approximately 300 mcf or 2% during the same
    period, resulting in an increase of approximately $700 in income from net
    profits interests.

    The net total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the
    change in production is approximately $13,300.  

3.  Lease operating costs and production taxes were 16% lower, or
    approximately $21,700 less during the quarter ended June 30, 1996 as
    compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1995.  The decrease is a result of
    an adjustment of an overcharge from a prior period.

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses decreased to $53,830 from $56,275 for the quarters
ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, a decrease of 4%.  The decrease
is the result of lower depletion expense, offset by an increase in general
and administrative expense.

1.  General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and
    engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
    Partner personnel costs.  General and administrative costs increased 5% 
    or approximately $1,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 1996 as
    compared to the quarter ended June 30, 1995.  

2.  Depletion expense decreased to $31,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
    1996 from $34,440 for the same period in 1995.  This represents a
    decrease of 10%.  Depletion is calculated using the gross revenue method
    of amortization based on a percentage of current period gross revenues to
    total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by the
    Partnership's independent petroleum consultants.  

    A factor that contributed to the decline in depletion expense between the
    comparative period was the increase in the price of oil and gas used to
    determine the Partnership's reserves for January 1, 1996 as compared to
    1995.

Revenues

The Partnership's income from net profits interests increased to $186,464
from $128,189 for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively,
an increase of 45%.  The principal factors affecting the comparison of the
six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are as follows:

1.  The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership
    increased during the six months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the
    six months ended June 30, 1995 by 9%, or $1.49 per barrel, resulting in
    an increase of approximately $31,600 in income from net profits
    interests.  Oil sales represented 87% of total oil and gas sales during
    the six months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to 88% during the six
    months ended June 30, 1995.

    The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership increased
    during the same period by 36%, or $.64 per mcf, resulting in an increase
    of approximately $17,000 in income from net profits interests.  

    The total increase in income from net profits interests due to the change
    in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately $48,600. 
    The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile over the
    past decade, and management expects a certain amount of volatility to
    continue in the foreseeable future.

2.  Oil production increased approximately 2,000 barrels or 9% during the six
    months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to the six months ended June 30,
    1995, resulting in an increase of approximately $36,600 in income from
    net profits interests.

    Gas production decreased approximately 300 mcf or 1% during the same
    period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $700 in income from net
    profits interests.

    The net total increase in income from net profits interests due to the
    change in production is approximately $35,900.  

3.  Lease operating costs and production taxes were 9% higher, or
    approximately $25,200 more during the six months ended June 30, 1996 as
    compared to the six months ended June 30, 1995.  The increase in lease
    operating costs is primarily attributable to litigation costs on one
    lease, offset by an adjustment for an overcharge during a prior period  

Costs and Expenses

Total costs and expenses decreased to $120,423 from $124,458 for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively, a decrease of 3%.  The
decrease is the result of a decrease in general and administrative expense
and depletion expense.

1.  General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and
    engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General
    Partner personnel costs.  General and administrative costs decreased 2% 
    or approximately $1,300 during the six months ended June 30, 1996 as
    compared to the six months ended June 30, 1995.

2.  Depletion expense decreased to $67,000 for the six months ended June 30,
    1996 from $69,690 for the same period in 1995.  This represents a
    decrease of 4%.  Depletion is calculated using the gross revenue method
    of amortization based on a percentage of current period gross revenues to
    total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by the
    Partnership's independent petroleum consultants.  

    A factor that contributed to the decline in depletion expense between the
    comparative period was the increase in the price of oil and gas used to
    determine the Partnership's reserves for January 1, 1996 as compared to
    1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The primary source of cash is from operations, the receipt of income from
interests in oil and gas properties.  The Partnership knows of no material
change, nor does it anticipate any such change.

Cash flows provided by operating activities were approximately $64,600 in the
six months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to approximately $78,400 in the
six months ended June 30, 1995.  The primary source of the 1996 cash flow
from operating activities was profitable operations.

Cash flows provided by investing activities were approximately $40 in the six
months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to none in the six months ended June
30, 1995.  The principle source of the 1996 cash flow from investing
activities was the sale of oil and gas properties.

Cash flows used in financing activities were approximately $90,100 in the six
months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to approximately $78,800 in the six
months ended June 30, 1995.  The only use in financing activities was the
distributions to partners.

Total distributions during the six months ended June 30, 1996 were $90,000 of
which $81,000 was distributed to the limited partners and $9,000 to the
general partners.  The per unit distribution to limited partners during the
six months ended June 30, 1996 was $7.16.  Total distributions during the six
months ended June 30, 1995 were $79,000 of which $71,100 was distributed to
the limited partners and $7,900 to the general partners.  The per unit
distribution to limited partners during the six months ended June 30, 1995
was $6.28.  

The sources for the 1996 distributions of $90,000 were oil and gas operations
of approximately $64,600 and the sale of oil and gas properties of
approximately $40, with the balance from available cash on hand at the
beginning of the period.  The source for the 1995 distributions of $79,000
was oil and gas operations of approximately $78,400, with the balance from
available cash on hand at the beginning of the period.

Since inception of the Partnership, cumulative monthly cash distributions of
$2,617,122 have been made to the partners.  As of June 30, 1996, $2,403,761
or $212.42 per limited partner unit has been distributed to the limited
partners, representing a 42% return of the capital contributed.

As of June 30, 1996, the Partnership had approximately $108,800 in working
capital.  The Managing General Partner knows of no unusual contractual
commitments and believes the revenues generated from operations are adequate
to meet the needs of the Partnership.
