1.   GENERAL

     The financial statements presented herein are prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
the instructions for preparing Form 10-Q under Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of
the Securities and Exchange Commission and are unaudited. As such, these
financial statements do not include all information and footnote disclosures
required under generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements and, accordingly, the accompanying financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the footnotes presented in the 1999 Annual Report.
Except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change to the information
presented in the footnotes to the 1999 Annual Report.

     In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and
recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included.

2.   TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

                        ACQUISITION AND OPERATING STAGES

     ACQUISITION OF EQUIPMENT Pursuant to its investment objectives, the
Partnership has acquired, on an all-cash basis, certain leased equipment from
Equis Financial Group L.P. ("EFG") (formerly American Finance Group or AFG), an
affiliate of the Managing General Partner.

     The purchase price of the equipment acquired from EFG is equal to the
lesser of the adjusted cost of the equipment or the appraised value of the
equipment at the time of its acquisition by the Partnership ("EFG carrying
value"). The adjusted cost of the equipment is equal to the price paid by EFG,
plus the cost of an appraisal, EFG's cost of interim financing for the equipment
and any taxes paid by EFG, less certain interim rentals received by EFG with
respect to the equipment.

     ACQUISITION FEE The Managing General Partner, or its affiliates, receives
or is entitled to receive a fee equal to (i) 2.25% of the purchase price of
equipment purchased with net offering proceeds from the sale of Units, and (ii)
3% of the purchase price of equipment purchased with reinvested Partnership cash
flow as compensation for evaluating, selecting, negotiating and consummating the
acquisition of the equipment. Acquisition fees of $1,321 and $21,640 were earned
by the Managing General Partner during the quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 2000.

                                   (CONTINUED)

     MANAGEMENT FEES The General Partners are entitled to receive a monthly fee
in an amount equal to 2% of gross rentals for Full Payout Leases, as defined in
the Partnership Agreement and 5% of gross rentals for other leases (payable
66.67% to the Managing General Partner and 33.33% to the Administrative General
Partner) as compensation for services rendered in connection with the management
of the equipment. Management fees of $40,588 and $126,820 were earned by the
General Partners during the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2000.
Effective July 1, 1998, the Managing General Partner agreed to perform certain
administrative functions on behalf of the Partnership that previously had been
performed by the Administrative General Partner. For these services, the
Administrative General Partner pays the Managing General Partner an amount
equivalent to the fees otherwise due the Administrative General Partner.

     DISPOSITION FEES The General Partners, or their affiliates, were entitled
to receive a subordinated disposition fee in an amount equal to the lesser of
(i) 50% of the fee that would be charged by an unaffiliated party, or (ii) 3% of
the gross contract price relating to each sale of equipment (payable 50% to the
Managing General Partner or its affiliates and 50% to the Administrative General
Partner) as compensation for negotiating and consummating sales of equipment.
During the fourth quarter of 1998, the Partnership reversed previously accrued
subordinated disposition fees because the General Partners concluded that it was
no longer probable that these subordinated disposition fees would be paid. The
Partnership has not accrued for subordinated disposition fees during 1999 or
2000.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

     The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial
Statements of the Partnership and the Notes thereto. This report contains, in
addition to historical information, forward-looking statements that include
risks and other uncertainties. The Partnership's actual results may differ
materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements. Factors
that might cause such a difference include those discussed below, as well as
general economic and business conditions, competition and other factors
discussed elsewhere in this report. The Partnership undertakes no obligation to
release publicly any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect
events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of
anticipated or unanticipated events.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Partnership commenced its equipment reinvestment phase during 1993 by
investing excess cash flows available after the payment of the distributions to
the partners in additional equipment. As of September 30, 2000, equipment
purchased pursuant to the reinvestment program, including acquisition fees and
expenses, totaled $27,759,308.

     The Partnership invests working capital and cash flow from operations prior
to its distribution to the partners or its reinvestment in additional equipment
in short-term highly liquid investments. These investments are primarily
short-term commercial paper issued by large domestic corporations. At September
30, 2000, the Partnership had approximately $1.5 million invested in commercial
paper and a fund that invests in similar instruments.

     Cash and cash equivalents decreased $283,035 from $1,926,081 at December
31, 1999 to $1,643,046 at September 30, 2000. This decrease primarily represents
the amount by which cash used to pay distributions to partners and cash used to
purchase equipment exceeded cash generated by operating activities and equipment
sales.

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Partnership declared
distributions of cash flow received from operations in the amount of $2,605,278.
All distributions to the Class A Limited Partners represented an annualized
distribution rate of 11% of their contributed capital and all distributions to
the Class B Limited Partner represented an annualized distribution rate of 10%
of its contributed capital.

     Distributions may be characterized for tax, accounting and economic
purposes as a return of capital, a return on capital or both. The portion of
each cash distribution by a partnership, which exceeds its net income for the
fiscal period, may be deemed a return of capital. Based upon the amount of net
income reported by the Partnership for accounting purposes, approximately 54% of
the 11% cash distributions to the Class A Limited Partners for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 constituted a return of capital. Additionally, since
inception, approximately 69% of the Class A Limited Partner's 11% cash
distributions constituted a return of capital. However, the total actual return
on capital over a leasing partnership's life can only be determined at the
termination of the Partnership after all residual cash flows (which include
proceeds from the re-leasing and sale of equipment after initial lease terms
expire) have been realized.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Partnership
recognized lease revenue of $1,017,171 and $3,120,033, respectively, compared to
$1,174,822 and $3,640,208 for the same periods in 1999. The overall decrease in
lease revenue from 1999 to 2000 was expected and resulted principally from
primary lease term expirations and the sale of equipment. The Partnership also
earns interest income from temporary investments of rental receipts and
equipment sales proceeds in short-term instruments.

     During the three months ended September 30, 2000, the Partnership sold
equipment having a net book value of $46,101 to existing lessees and third
parties. These sales resulted in a net gain, for financial statement purposes,
of $182,892 compared to a net gain in 1999 of $287,952 on equipment having a net
book value of $159,880.

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Partnership sold
equipment having a net book value of $149,329 to existing lessees and third
parties. These sales resulted in a net gain, for financial statement purposes,
of $212,892 compared to a net gain in 1999 of $12,479 on equipment having a net
book value of $937,301.

     It cannot be determined whether future sales of equipment will result in a
net gain or a net loss to the Partnership, as such transactions will be
dependent upon the condition and type of equipment being sold and its
marketability at the time of sale. In addition, the amount of gain or loss
reported for financial statement purposes is partly a function of the amount of
accumulated depreciation associated with the equipment being sold.

     The ultimate realization of residual value for any type of equipment is
dependent upon many factors, including EFG's ability to sell and re-lease
equipment. Changing market conditions, industry trends, technological advances,
and many other events can converge to enhance or detract from asset values at
any given time. EFG attempts to monitor these changes in order to identify
opportunities which may be advantageous to the Partnership and which will
maximize total cash returns for each asset.

     The total economic value realized upon final disposition of each asset is
comprised of all primary lease term revenues generated from that asset, together
with its residual value. The latter consists of cash proceeds realized upon the
asset's sale in addition to all other cash receipts obtained from renting the
asset on a re-lease, renewal or month-to-month basis. The Partnership classifies
such residual rental payments as lease revenue. Consequently, the amount of gain
or loss reported in the financial statements is not necessarily indicative of
the total residual value the Partnership achieved from leasing the equipment.

     Depreciation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000
was $634,382 and $1,984,932, respectively, compared to $849,706 and $2,443,967,
for the same periods in 1999. For financial reporting purposes, to the extent
that an asset is held on primary lease term, the Partnership depreciates the
difference between (i) the cost of the asset and (ii) the estimated residual
value of the asset on a straight-line basis over such term. For purposes of this
policy, estimated residual values represent estimates of equipment values at the
date of primary lease expiration. To the extent that an


                                       11
<PAGE>

asset is held beyond its primary lease term, the Partnership continues to
depreciate the remaining net book value of the asset on a straight-line basis
over the asset's remaining economic life.

      Management fees were approximately 4% and 4.1% of lease revenue during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2000, respectively, compared to 4.1%
and 4.2% of lease revenue for the same periods in 1999. Management fees are
based on 5% of gross lease revenue generated by operating leases and 2% of gross
lease revenue generated by full payout leases.

     The General Partners, or their affiliates, were entitled to receive a
subordinated disposition fee in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) 50% of the
fee that would be charged by an unaffiliated party, or (ii) 3% of the gross
contract price relating to each sale of equipment (payable 50% to the Managing
General Partner or its affiliates and 50% to the Administrative General Partner)
as compensation for negotiating and consummating sales of equipment. During the
fourth quarter of 1998, the Partnership reversed previously accrued subordinated
disposition fees because the General Partners concluded that it was no longer
probable that these subordinated disposition fees would be paid. The Partnership
has not accrued for subordinated disposition fees during 1999 or 2000.

     General and administrative expenses consisted primarily of investor
reporting expenses, transfer agent, audit and tax fees.
