Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Cash

Cash - The Partnership classifies its short-term investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2013 the Partnership had no cash equivalents..

Uncollected Rental Revenue

Uncollected Rental Revenue - The Partnership estimates the collectability of uncollected rental revenue on an ongoing basis by reviewing past-due monthly rents and assessing the current creditworthiness of each tenant.  Allowances are provided based on historical write-offs. Allowances on uncollected rental revenue as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $13,954 and $13,359, respectively..

Property and Depreciation

Property and Depreciation - Property is recorded at cost and is composed primarily of mini-storage facilities. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 20 years for the facilities. Building improvements are depreciated over a five year period. Property under capital leases is amortized over the lesser of the lives of the respective leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes - No provision has been made for income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. The taxable income or loss of the Partnership is allocated to each partner in accordance with the terms of the Agreement of Limited Partnership. Each partner's tax status, in turn, determines the appropriate income tax for its allocated share of the Partnership's taxable income or loss. For the year ended December 31, 2011 the Partnership changed the accounting method for federal income tax purposes from cash to accrual basis thereby eliminating the difference in the basis of the Partnership’s assets and liabilities between tax and the GAAP basis financial statements. The change in tax accounting method resulted in an adjustment to the limited partners’ capital account for tax purposes for the year ended December 31, 2011 only in order to coincide with the accounting method used to prepare the Partnership’s GAAP basis financial statements. Accordingly there were no differences for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Revenues

Revenues - Rental income, which is generally earned pursuant to month-to-month leases for storage space, as well as late charges and administrative fees, are recognized as earned. Promotional discounts reduce rental income over the promotional period. Ancillary revenues and interest and other income are recognized when earned.

Advertising Expense

Advertising Expense - Costs related to advertising in Yellow Pages are capitalized and amortized over 12 months. All other advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $150,880 and $125,583 respectively.

Net Income per Limited Partnership Unit

Net Income per Limited Partnership Unit - Net income per limited partnership unit is computed by dividing net income allocated to the limited partners by the weighted average number of limited partnership units outstanding during each year.

Estimates

Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Partnership to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Partnership regularly reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Partnership would recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying value exceeded the fair value of the property. No impairment losses were required in 2013 or 2012.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - ASC 825-10 (formerly SFAS 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”) defines financial instruments and requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Partnership. For all financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, other assets, distributions due to partners, incentive management fee payable to general partners, property management fee payable, and customer deposits and other liabilities, carrying values approximate fair values because of the short maturity of those instruments.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Concentrations of Credit Risk - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Partnership to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and uncollected rent revenue. The Partnership places its cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality institutions. Accounts at banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000. At December 31, 2013, the Partnership had $4,681 in excess of insured limits. The Partnership performs ongoing evaluations of these institutions to limit its concentration of risk exposure. Management believes this risk is not significant due to the financial strength of the financial institutions utilized by the Partnership. 

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive Income - The Partnership has adopted Accounting Standards Update 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. For the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 comprehensive income equaled net income, as the Partnership had no other comprehensive income. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, accumulated other comprehensive income was $0.

Recent Accounting Pronoucements

The Partnership has reviewed all the recent accounting pronouncements issued to date of the issuance of these financial statements, and does not believe any of these pronouncements will have a material impact on the Partnership’s financial statements.
