See accompanying notes to financial statements. 6 ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY FUND (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES BUSINESS Associated Planners Realty Fund (the "Partnership"), a California limited partnership, was formed on November 19, 1985 under the Revised Limited Partnership Act of the State of California. The Partnership was formed to acquire income-producing real property throughout the United States with an emphasis on properties located in California and the southwestern states. The Partnership purchased these properties on an all cash basis or on a moderately leveraged basis and intended on owning and operating such properties for investment over an anticipated holding period of approximately five to ten years. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The financial statements do not give effect to any assets that the partners may have outside of their interest in the partnership, nor to any personal obligations, including income taxes, of the partners. RENTAL REAL ESTATE AND DEPRECIATION Assets are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 40 years. In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the cost of an asset may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would be performed. If an evaluation is required, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset would be compared to the carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market value is required. RENTAL INCOME Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis to the extent that rental revenue is deemed collectible and collection is probable. STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS For the purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Partnership considers cash in the bank and all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less, to be cash and cash equivalents. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management 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. 7 ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY FUND (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," ("SFAS 130") establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to stockholders' equity except those due to investments by owners and distribution to owners. The Company does not have any components of comprehensive income (loss) for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2001 or 2000. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT Net income (loss) per limited partnership unit is calculated by dividing the limited partners' share of net income (loss) by the weighted average number of limited partnership units outstanding for the period. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board finalized FASB Statements No. 141, Business Combinations (SFAS 141), and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142). SFAS 141 requires the use of the purchase method of accounting and prohibits the use of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS 141 also requires that the Partnership recognize acquired intangible assets apart from goodwill if the acquired intangible assets meet certain criteria. SFAS 141 applies to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and for purchase business combinations completed on or after July 1, 2001. It also requires, upon adoption of SFAS 142, that the Partnership reclassify the carrying amounts of intangible assets and goodwill based on the criteria in SFAS 141. SFAS 142 requires, among other things, that companies no longer amortize goodwill, but instead test goodwill for impairment at least annually. In addition, SFAS 142 requires that the Partnership identify reporting units for the purposes of assessing potential future impairments of goodwill, reassess the useful lives of other existing recognized intangible assets, and cease amortization of intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. An intangible asset with an indefinite useful life should be tested for impairment in accordance with the guidance in SFAS 142. SFAS 142 is required to be applied in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 to all goodwill and other intangible assets recognized at that date, regardless of when those assets were initially recognized. SFAS 142 requires the Partnership to complete a transitional goodwill impairment test six months from the date of adoption. The Partnership is also required to reassess the useful lives of other intangible assets within the first interim quarter after adoption of SFAS 142. The Partnership had no previous transactions that resulted in the recognition of goodwill. The adoption of SFAS 141 and SFAS 142 had no material affect on the Partnership's financial results. 8 ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY FUND (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED) Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 143, (SFAS 143) Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, was issued in June 2001 and is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. SFAS 143 requires that any legal obligation related to the retirement of long-lived assets be quantified and recorded as a liability with the associated asset retirement cost capitalized on the balance sheet in the period it is incurred when a reasonable estimate of the fair value of the liability can be made. The Partnership believes this statement will not have a material affect on its financial statements. Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144, (SFAS 144) Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, was issued in August 2001 and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS 144 provides a single, comprehensive accounting model for impairment and disposal of long-lived assets and discontinued operations. The Partnership is assessing but has not yet determined how the adoption of SFAS 144 will impact its financial statements. 9 ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY FUND (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 AND 2000 (UNAUDITED) AND YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000 NOTE 1 -- PRESENTATION OF INTERIM INFORMATION In the opinion of the General Partner of Associated Planners Realty Fund (the "Partnership"), the accompanying unaudited financial statements include all normal adjustments considered necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2001, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000.

The financial statements do not contain any adjustments that might result from the liquidation of the Partnership. 12 ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY FUND (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 AND 2000 (UNAUDITED) AND YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000 (CONTINUED) NOTE 8 -- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On October 12, 2001 the Partnership entered into an agreement with an unrelated individual for the sale of the Partnership's remaining property, the Shaw Villa Shopping Center in Clovis, California. Terms of the sale call for no sales commission and a carryback 2nd Trust Deed that matures on February 1, 2004. If, however, the note is prepaid within one year the buyer will receive a discount upon the payoff of the loan. Escrow is scheduled to close on February 15, 2002. The buyer has substantial contingencies remaining to be satisfied and therefore there is no assurance that the contemplated sale will occur. 13 ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY FUND (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Certain statements in the Management Discussion and Analysis constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Reform Act"). Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Partnership to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements, expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. INTRODUCTION Associated Planners Realty Fund (the "Partnership") was organized in November 1985, under the California Revised Limited Partnership Act. The Partnership began offering units for sale on March 28, 1986. As of December 27, 1987, the Partnership had raised $7,499,000 in gross capital contributions. The Partnership netted approximately $6,720,000 after sales commissions and syndication costs. The Partnership was organized for the purpose of investing in, holding, and managing improved, leveraged income-producing property, such as residential property, office buildings, commercial buildings, industrial properties, and shopping centers. The Partnership intended to own and operate such properties for investment over an anticipated holding period of approximately five to ten years. The Partnership's principal investment objectives are to invest in rental real estate properties, which will: (1) Preserve and protect the Partnership's invested capital; (2) Provide for cash distributions from operations; (3) Provide gains through potential appreciation; and (4) Generate federal income tax deductions so that during the early years of property operations, a portion of cash distributions may be treated as a return of capital for tax purposes and, therefore, may not represent taxable income to the limited partners. The ownership and operation of any income-producing real estate is subject to those risks inherent in all real estate investments, including national and local economic conditions, the supply and demand for similar types of properties, competitive marketing conditions, zoning changes, possible casualty losses, increases in real estate taxes, assessments, and operating expenses, as well as others. 14 ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY FUND (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) INTRODUCTION (CONTINUED) The Partnership is operated by the General Partner subject to the terms of the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership. The Partnership has no employees, and all administrative services are provided by West Coast Realty Advisors, Inc., the General Partner. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 VS. NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 reflect the operations of the Partnership's remaining property Shaw Villa Shopping Center. The nine months ending September 30, 2000 also includes operations of the Simi Valley property before its sale on February 4, 2000. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 of $91,191 was lower than the net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 of $294,638 primarily as a result of the $291,151 gain on sale of the Simi Valley property in February 2000. Rental revenue of $268,539 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 increased $40,139 (17.57%) from the nine months ended September 30, 2000 due to higher base rents on the lease contracts for the Shaw Villa Shopping Center. Due to the vacancy of the Simi Valley property and its subsequent sale in February 2000, the Shaw Villa Shopping Center was the only income producing property for both nine month periods. Interest income increased $14,331 (22.37%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2000 primarily due to interest income on the note receivable received in connection with the sale of the Simi Valley property. Operating expenses and property taxes decreased $11,263 (21.61%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2000, primarily due to the sale of the Simi Valley property in February 2000. Property management fees increased $1,434 (12.39%) due to higher rental income received for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. General and administrative expenses decreased $16,191 (22.01%) primarily due to disposition fees and expenses recorded as of June 30, 2000 associated with the sale of the Simi Valley property. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $4,612 (8.12%) because fewer properties were owned during the nine months ended September 30, 2001. The Partnership generated $143,409 in income from operations before depreciation expense of $52,218 for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. In contrast cash basis income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $60,317 before depreciation expense of $56,830 and $291,151 gain from the sale of the Simi Valley property. Net income per limited partnership unit decreased from $32.74 in 2000 to $10.32 in 2001. The number of limited partnership units outstanding in each quarter was 7,499. 15 ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY FUND (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 VS. THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 Operations for the both the quarter ended September 30, 2001 and September 30, 2000 reflect the operations of the Partnership's remaining property Shaw Villa Shopping Center. The net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2001 of $31,046 compares with net income of $16,727 for the quarter ended September 30, 2000. Rental revenue increased $11,367 (14.82%) for the three months ended September 30, 2001 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2000 due to higher base rents on the lease contracts for the Shaw Villa Shopping Center. Total Costs and Expenses decreased $3,269 (3.79%) during the quarter ended September 30, 2001 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2000 primarily due to adjustments to the accrual for property taxes recorded in September 2000. Overall the Partnership generated $48,452 in income from operations before depreciation expense of $17,406 for the quarter ended September 30, 2001. This compares favorably to the quarter ended September 30, 2000 when cash basis income totaled $34,133 before depreciation expense of $17,406. Net income (loss) per limited partnership unit increased from $1.80 in 2000 to $3.52 in 2001. The number of limited partnership units outstanding in each quarter was 7,499. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Partnership made distributions to the limited partners totaling $74,990 none of which constituted a return of capital. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Partnership distributed $509,932 to the limited partners of which $232,458 constituted a return of capital. Management uses cash as its primary measure of the Partnership's liquidity. The amount of cash that represents adequate liquidity for a real estate limited partnership, in the short-term and long-term, depends on several factors. Among them are: 1. Relative risk of the partnership; 2. Condition of the partnership's properties; 3. Stage in the partnership's life cycle (e.g., money-raising, acquisition, operating or disposition phase); and 4. Distributions to partners. 16 ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY FUND (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED) The Partnership believes that it has the ability to generate sufficient cash to meet both short-term and long-term liquidity needs, based upon the above four factors. The first factor refers to the risk of Partnership's investments. The Partnership's investments in properties were paid for in cash or on a moderately leveraged basis. The second factor relates to the condition of the Partnership's property. The Partnership's property is in good condition. There is no foreseeable need to increase reserves to fund deferred or unusual maintenance and repair expenditures. The third factor relates to life cycle. The Partnership completed its funding, acquisition and operating stages of properties in previous years. The Partnership is in the disposition stage. As part of the disposition stage, the Partnership has listed its remaining property for sale. The fourth factor relates to Partnership distributions. The Partnership is currently making semi-annual distributions from operations. Such distributions are subject to payments of Partnership expenses and reasonable reserves for expenses, maintenance, and replacements. In addition, at least six months of cash profits are left in the Partnership's balance sheet at each quarter end, since the Partnership makes distributions to the limited partners one month after each record date of June 30, and December 31. The General Partner believes that the Partnership will have the ability to meet its cash requirements in both the short-term and long-term. Slowdowns in the economy, inflation and changing prices have had a nominal effect on the Partnership's revenues and income from continuing operations. During the thirteen years of the Partnership's existence, inflationary pressures in the U.S. economy have been minimal, and this has been consistent with the experience of the Partnership in operating rental real estate in California. The General Partner is attempting to sell the remaining property owned by the Partnership. Once the Shaw Villa Shopping Center is sold and any notes receivable remaining are settled, the net proceeds will be distributed to the limited and general partners in accordance with the partnership agreement, and the partnership will then be terminated and dissolved. There is no assurance that the remaining property will be sold and the partnership will be liquidated during 2001. The financial statements do not contain any adjustments that might result from the liquidation of the partnership. 17 ASSOCIATED PLANNERS REALTY FUND (A CALIFORNIA LIMITED PARTNERSHIP) ITEM 2.
