NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 1997
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The financial information presented as of any date other than December 31
has been prepared from the books and records without audit. Financial
information as of December 31 has been derived from the audited financial
statements of Commonwealth Income & Growth Fund I (the "Partnership"), but
does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of
normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial information for the periods indicated have been included. For
further information regarding the Partnership's accounting policies, refer to
the financial statements and related notes included in the Partnership's
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1996.
NET INCOME PER EQUIVALENT LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT
The net income per equivalent limited partnership unit is computed based
upon net income allocated to the limited partners and the weighted average
number of equivalent units outstanding during the period.

Commonwealth Income & Growth Fund II
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Partnership satisfied its minimum offering requirements and commenced
operations on September 22, 1995. On that date, subscribers for 126,118 Units
were admitted as Limited Partners of the Partnership. On May 12, 1997, the
Partnership terminated its offering of Units with 461,817 ($9,235,185) Units
sold.
The Partnership's primary sources of capital for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996, were from Partners' contributions of $1,186,000
and $3,468,000, respectively, and cash from operations for the quarter ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996 of $1,618,000 and $785,000 respectively. The
primary uses of cash for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996
were for capital expenditures for new equipment totaling $3,983,000 and
$1,514,000, respectively, the payment of offering costs of $130,000 and
$389,000, respectively, the payment of preferred distributions to partners of
$675,000 and $414,000 respectively, and the payment of acquisition fees of
$182,000 and $117,000 respectively. For the nine months ended September 30,
1996, the Partnership made a payment of accounts payable of $148,000 to Com
Cap Corp. for the purchase of Equipment.
Currently, Partners' contributions and rental income from the
Partnership's leases are invested in money market accounts investing directly
in treasury obligations pending the Partnership's use of such funds to
purchase additional computer equipment, to pay Partnership expenses or to
make distributions to the Partners. At September 30, 1997 and December 31,
1996 the Partnership had approximately $274,000 and $2,552,000, respectively,
invested in these money market accounts.
The Partnership's investment strategy of acquiring computer equipment and
generally leasing it under "triple-net leases" to operators who generally
meet specified financial standards minimizes the Partnership's operating
expenses. As of September 30, 1997, the Partnership had future minimum
rentals on noncancellable operating leases of $878,000 for the year ending
December 31, 1997 and $5,286,000 thereafter. During the nine month period
ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership incurred debt in connection with
the purchase of computer equipment totaling $1,663,000. At September 30,
1997, the outstanding debt was $1,468,000, with interest rates ranging from
7.47% to 8.20%, and will be payable through July 2000.
The Partnership's cash from operations is expected to continue to be
adequate to cover all operating expenses, liabilities, and preferred
distributions to Partners during the next 12 month period. If available Cash
Flow or Net Disposition Proceeds are insufficient to cover the Partnership
expenses and liabilities on a short and long term basis, the Partnership will
attempt to obtain additional funds by disposing of or refinancing Equipment,
or by borrowing within its permissible limits. The Partnership may also
reduce the distributions to its Partners if it deems necessary. Since the
Partnership's leases are on a "triple-net" basis, no reserve for maintenance
and repairs are deemed necessary.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the quarter ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership recognized
income of $770,000 and expenses of $758,000, resulting in net income of
$12,000. For the quarter ended June 30, 1997, the Partnership recognized
income of $516,000 and expenses of $498,000, resulting in net income of
$18,000. For the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Partnership recognized
income of $405,000 and expenses of $369,000, resulting in net income of
$36,000.
Lease income increased by 133% from $325,000 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1996 to $758,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1997,
primarily due to utilizing cash available from Partners' contributions for
the purchase of Equipment, which in turn generated more lease income. During
the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership expended $3,983,000
and assumed debt and equipment payable of $2,520,000 to acquire ten leases,
which generated approximately $228,000 in revenue.

Commonwealth Income & Growth Fund II
Interest income decreased 43% from $23,000 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1996 to $13,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1997. This
decrease is the result of capital contributions being utilized for equipment
purchases.
Operating expenses, excluding depreciation, primarily consist of
accounting, legal, and outside service fees. The expense decreased 50% from
approximately $2,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996 to $1,000 for
the quarter ended September 30, 1997.
The equipment management fee is equal to 5% of the gross lease revenue
attributable to equipment which is subject to operating leases. The equipment
management fee increased 138% from approximately $16,000 for the quarter
ended September 30, 1996, to $38,000 for the quarter ended September 30,
1997, which is consistent with the increase in lease income.
Depreciation and amortization expenses consist of depreciation on
computer equipment, amortization of organizational costs, and equipment
acquisition fees. The expenses increased 131% from approximately $307,000 for
the quarter ended September 30, 1996, to $709,000 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1997, which is attributable to the purchase of approximately
$6,525,000 in additional equipment.
For the nine month period ended September 30, 1997, the Partnership
generated cash flow from operating activities of $1,618,000, which includes
net income of $66,000, and depreciation and amortization expenses of
$1,580,000. Other noncash activities included in the determination of net
income includes direct payments of lease income by lessees to banks of
$196,000 and lease income paid to original lessors in lieu of cash payments
for computer equipment of $22,000.
For the nine month period ended September 30, 1996, the Partnership
generated cash flows from operating activities of $785,000, which includes
net income of $7,000, and depreciation and amortization expenses of $757,000.
Other noncash activities included in the determination of net income includes
lease income paid to original lessors in lieu of cash payments for computer
equipment of $4,000.
