Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Results of Operations - ---------------------
Summary of Operations - ---------------------
As a result of the foreclosure of Suncrest Village Apartments and sale of Sahara Palms Apartments in 1993, Balcor Realty Investors 85 - Series I A Real Estate Limited Partnership (the "Partnership") recognized gains which resulted in significantly higher net income in 1993 as compared to 1994, as well as net income during 1993 as compared to a loss in 1992.
The dispositions of these properties, which were generating losses, coupled with improved operations at certain of the Partnership's remaining properties, contributed to improvements in results of operations before gain on sale of property and extraordinary items resulting in income in 1994 as compared to a loss in 1993, and decreased losses in 1993 as compared to 1992.
Further discussion of the Partnership's operations is summarized below.
Operations - ----------
1994 Compared to 1993 - ---------------------
As a result of the Suncrest Village Apartments foreclosure in May 1993 and the Sahara Palms Apartments sale in July 1993, rental and service income, interest expense, depreciation expense, property operating expense, maintenance and repairs expense, real estate taxes and property management fees decreased during 1994 as compared to 1993.
Increased rental and/or occupancy rates during 1994 at all of the Partnership's seven remaining properties partially offset the decrease in rental and service income due to the 1993 property dispositions.
The increase in cash flow from the Partnership's properties, the proceeds from the July 1993 sale of Sahara Palms Apartments, and the net proceeds received in connection with the refinancing of the mortgage loan on Heather Ridge Apartments in July 1994 caused the Partnership's cash balances to increase. This, together with higher interest rates, resulted in an increase in interest income on short-term investments during 1994 as compared to 1993.
In addition to the decrease resulting from the 1993 property dispositions, interest expense decreased during 1994 as compared to 1993 due to the refinancing of the Timberlake - Phase I Apartments mortgage loan in October 1993, as well as the contractual decrease in the interest rate on the Templeton Park Apartments mortgage loan, effective December 1993. The decrease in interest expense was partially offset by increased interest expense for the Forest Ridge - Phase I and Heather Ridge loans due to higher principal balances resulting from the refinancings during 1994. In conjunction with the 1994 Forest Ridge - Phase I and Heather Ridge refinancings, the remaining deferred expenses were written-off and this combined with the amortization of expenses related to the 1993 Forestwood and Timberlake - Phase I mortgage refinancings caused amortization of deferred expenses to increase during 1994 as compared to 1993.
Property operating expense decreased during 1994 as compared to 1993 primarily as a result of the 1993 property dispositions. However, increases in carpet replacement at Forest Ridge - Phase I, Forestwood, Timberlake - Phase I and Willowbend apartment complexes as well as higher insurance expense at all of the Partnership's properties partially offset the decrease for 1994 as compared to 1993.
In addition to the decrease resulting from the 1993 property dispositions, maintenance and repairs expense also decreased during 1994 as compared to 1993 due to maintenance and repairs expenses incurred in 1993 at the Forestwood Apartments for which the Partnership received an insurance reimbursement in 1994.
North Hill Apartments is owned by a joint venture consisting of the Partnership and an affiliate. In connection with the December 1994 North Hill Apartments refinancing, the joint venture received a refund relating to prior year payments made to Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company representing its 1% guaranty fee on the original North Hills Apartments mortgage loan. As a result, the joint venture recognized a $534,659 extraordinary gain on forgiveness of debt in 1994, of which $133,665 represents the Partnership's share.
As a result of the sale of Sahara Palms Apartments in July 1993 and the relinquishment of title through foreclosure of Suncrest Village Apartments in May 1993, the Partnership recognized a gain on sale of property of $4,194,237 in 1993 and extraordinary gain on foreclosure of property of $3,118,578 in 1993, respectively.
In October 1993, the Partnership completed the refinancing of the Timberlake- Phase I first mortgage loan, and obtained a new first mortgage loan from an unaffiliated lender. The Partnership received a $362,744 discount from the previous lender for prepayment of the mortgage note and consequently recognized an extraordinary gain on debt forgiveness in 1993.
1993 Compared to 1992 - ---------------------
As a result of the foreclosure of Suncrest Village Apartments in May 1993 and the sale of Sahara Palms Apartments in July 1993, rental income, interest expense, depreciation expense, amortization of deferred expenses, property operating expense, maintenance and repairs expense, real estate tax expense and property management fees decreased during 1993 as compared to 1992.
Rental and service income decreased during 1993 as compared to 1992 due to the dispositions of Sahara Palms and Suncrest Village apartment complexes. This decrease was partially offset by increased rental and/or occupancy rates at all of the Partnership's seven remaining properties.
The improved cash flow at five of the Partnership's seven remaining properties, the proceeds from the sale of Sahara Palms Apartments, and the cash retained as a result of the suspension of debt service and real estate tax payments on Suncrest Village Apartments caused the Partnership's cash balance to increase. This resulted in an increase in interest income on short-term investments during 1993 when compared 1992.
The Partnership reached settlements with the sellers of the Forest Ridge - Phase I, Highpoint - Phase II, and Sahara Palms apartment complexes in 1992. Settlement income of $481,861 was recognized in connection with these transactions.
The decrease in property operating expense during 1993 as compared to 1992 as a result of the dispositions of the Sahara Palms and Suncrest Village apartment complexes was partially offset by higher payroll costs at the Willow Bend and Templeton Park apartment complexes.
In addition to the decrease from the dispositions of the Sahara Palms and Suncrest Village apartment complexes, maintenance and repairs expense also decreased during 1993 as compared to 1992 due to higher exterior painting expenses at the Heather Ridge Apartments during 1992. This decrease in maintenance and repairs expense was partially offset by increased carpet replacement costs at the Templeton Park Apartments and increased carpet replacement and asphalt paving at the Forestwood Apartments.
As a result of improved operations at North Hill Apartments, in which the Partnership holds a minority joint venture interest, participation in losses of joint ventures with affiliates decreased for 1993 as compared to 1992.
During 1993 the Partnership sold the Sahara Palms Apartments and recognized a $4,194,237 gain on sale of property.
In October 1993, the Partnership completed the refinancing of the Timberlake - Phase I first mortgage loan and obtained a new first mortgage loan from an unaffiliated lender. The Partnership received a $362,744 discount from the previous lender for prepayment of the mortgage note and consequently recognized an extraordinary gain on debt forgiveness.
Liquidity and Capital Resources - -------------------------------
The cash position of the Partnership increased by approximately $3,346,000 as of December 31, 1994 as compared to December 31, 1993. The Partnership's cash flow provided by operating activities during 1994 was generated primarily from the Partnership's properties, and was partially offset by the payment of administrative expenses. The Partnership's net cash used in investing activities consisted of a net contribution to joint ventures with affiliates. The Partnership received cash flow from financing activities which consisted of net proceeds from the refinancing of the underlying mortgage loans on both the Forest Ridge - Phase I and Heather Ridge apartment complexes. A portion of these proceeds were used for the payment of deferred expenses and funding of improvement escrows in connection with the two refinancings. Cash was used in
other financing activities for principal payments on mortgage notes payable and a distribution to the Limited Partners.
The Partnership classifies the cash flow performance of its properties as either positive, a marginal deficit, or a significant deficit, each after consideration of debt service payments. A deficit is considered to be significant if it exceeds $250,000 annually or 20% of the property's rental and service income. The Partnership defines cash flow generated from its properties as an amount equal to the property's revenue receipts less property related expenditures, which include debt service payments. During 1994 and 1993, all seven of the Partnership's properties generated positive cash flow. Of the three properties in which the Partnership holds minority joint venture interests, the North Hill Apartments generated positive cash flow during 1994 and 1993. The Seabrook and Pinebrook apartment complexes generated marginal cash flow deficits during 1994 as compared to positive cash flow for 1993, primarily due to plumbing repairs at the Seabrook Apartments and default interest expense and legal fees incurred in connection with the bankruptcy plan of reorganization at the Pinebrook Apartments.
While the cash flow of certain of the Partnership's remaining properties has improved, the General Partner continues to pursue a number of actions aimed at further improving the cash flow of the Partnership's properties including refinancing of mortgage loans, improving property operating performance, and seeking rent increases where market conditions allow. As of December 31, 1994, the occupancy rates of the Partnership's properties ranged from 88% to 98%. Despite recent improvements in the local economies and rental markets where certain of the Partnership's properties are located, the General Partner believes that continued ownership of many of the properties is in the best interest of the Partnership in order to maximize potential returns to Limited Partners. As a result, the Partnership will continue to own these properties for longer than the holding period for the assets originally described in the prospectus.
Each of the Partnership's properties is owned through the use of third-party mortgage loan financing and, therefore, the Partnership is subject to the financial obligations required by such loans. The $7,787,000 Boulder Springs mortgage loan matures in 1995 and the Partnership expects to refinance this loan prior to its maturity. See Note 3 of Notes to Financial Statements for information concerning outstanding balances, maturity dates, interest rates and other terms related to each of these mortgage loans. In certain instances it may be difficult for the Partnership to refinance a property in an amount sufficient to retire in full the current mortgage financing with respect to the property. In the event negotiations with the existing lender for a loan modification or with new lenders for a refinancing are unsuccessful, the Partnership may sell the collateral property or other properties to satisfy an obligation or may relinquish title to the collateral property in satisfaction of the outstanding mortgage loan balance.
During 1994, the Heather Ridge and Forest Ridge - Phase I first mortgage loans were refinanced. Proceeds from the two new loans which totalled $12,890,000 were used to pay the existing loans totalling $10,563,000. See Note 3 of Notes to the Financial Statements for additional information.
The Pinebrook Apartments were owned by a joint venture ("Joint Venture") consisting of the Partnership and an affiliate, and were financed with a $5,185,000 wrap-around mortgage payable, which matured in July 1993. In December 1992, the Joint Venture filed for protection under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and in 1994, a plan of reorganization was approved by the Bankruptcy Court. Pursuant to the plan, the Joint Venture was required to sell the property within two years. Consequently, in February 1995, the Partnership sold the Pinebrook Apartments in an all cash sale for $6,140,000. From the proceeds, the Partnership paid $5,058,226 to the third party mortgage holders in full satisfaction of the first, second and fourth mortgage loans. See Note 6 of Notes to Financial Statements and Item 1. Other Information for additional information.
North Hill Apartments are owned by a joint venture ("Joint Venture") consisting of the Partnership and an affiliate. The $18,700,000 tax exempt bond issue which funded the first mortgage financing collateralized by the property went into technical default in July 1991 due to the insolvency of the guarantor of the bonds. In April 1993, the Joint Venture and the trustee for the bondholders entered into an agreement in which the loan was modified and the trustee agreed to forebear from commencing foreclosure proceedings while the Joint Venture sought alternative financing. In conjunction with the subsequent extension of the agreement,the Joint Venture agreed to pay 50% of monthly net cash flow into an escrow account to be applied to amounts due under the mortgage loan upon refinancing. In December 1994, the Joint Venture refinanced the mortgage loan. In conjunction with the refinancing, $828,605 held in escrow representing the 50% of net cash flow and the guarantee fee previously paid to the trustee, but not paid to the guarantor due to its insolvency, were released to the Joint Venture, a portion of which was used to repay the previous bond financing. In addition, the Joint Venture received proceeds of $1,350,000 from a non- affiliated party which was also used to repay the previous bond financing. See Note 6 of Notes to Financial Statements for additional information.
In January 1995, the Partnership made a distribution of $413,485 ($5.00 per Interest) to the holders of Limited Partnership Interests for the fourth quarter of 1994. The Partnership made its first distribution to Limited Partners of $5.00 per Limited Partnership Interest in October 1994. The General Partner expects to continue quarterly distributions to Limited Partners. However, the level of future distributions, if available, will depend on cash flow from the Partnership's remaining properties, the successful refinancing of certain mortgage loans and proceeds from future property sales, as to all of which there can be no assurances. In light of results to date and current market conditions, the General Partner does not anticipate that investors will recover all of their original investment.
The General Partner has recently completed the outsourcing of the financial reporting and accounting services, transfer agent and investor records services, and computer operations and systems development functions that provided services to the Partnership. All of these functions are now being provided by independent third parties. Additionally, Allegiance Realty Group, Inc., which has provided property management services to all of the Partnership's properties, was sold to a third party. Each of these transactions occurred after extensive due diligence and competitive bidding processes. The General Partner does not believe that the cost of providing these services to the Partnership, in the aggregate, will be materially different to the Partnership during 1995 when compared to 1994.
Inflation has several types of potentially conflicting impacts on real estate investments. Short-term inflation can increase real estate operating costs which may or may not be recovered through increased rents and/or sales prices, depending on general or local economic conditions. In the long-term, inflation can be expected to increase operating costs and replacement costs and may lead to increased rental revenues and real estate values.

BALCOR REALTY INVESTORS 85-SERIES I A REAL ESTATE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (An Illinois Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Accounting Policies:
(a) Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method. Rates used in the determination of depreciation are based upon the following estimated useful lives:
Years -----
Buildings and improvements 30 Furniture and fixtures 5
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred. Expenditures for improvements are charged to the related asset account.
The Partnership records its investments in real estate at cost, and periodically assesses possible impairment to the value of its properties. In the event that the General Partner determines that a permanent impairment in value has occurred, the carrying basis of the property is reduced to its estimated fair value.
When properties are sold, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts. Any gain or loss on disposition is recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
(b) Deferred expenses consist principally of loan refinancing and modification fees which are amortized over the terms of the respective agreements.
(c) Investment in joint ventures with affiliates represents the Partnership's 48.4%, 25% and 15.4% interests in the Pinebrook Apartments, North Hill Apartments and Seabrook Apartments, respectively, recorded under the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the Partnership records its initial investment at cost and adjusts its investment account for additional capital contributions, distributions and its share of joint venture income or loss. Depreciation recognized in connection with the ownership of real estate by the joint ventures has resulted in the Partnership's share of cumulative losses exceeding the net amounts invested in the joint ventures. This has resulted in the classification of the investment as "Losses in excess of investments in joint ventures with affiliates" in the accompanying financial statements.
(d) Cash equivalents include all unrestricted highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.
(e) The Partnership is not liable for Federal income taxes and each partner recognizes his proportionate share of the Partnership income or loss in his tax return; therefore no provision for income taxes is made in the financial statements of the Partnership.
2. Partnership Agreement:
The Partnership was organized on August 1, 1983. The Partnership Agreement provides for Balcor Partners-XVI to be the General Partner and for the admission of Limited Partners through the sale of up to 100,000 Limited Partnership Interests at $1,000 per Interest, 82,697 of which were sold through April 30, 1985, the termination date of the offering.
The Partnership Agreement generally provides that the General Partner will be allocated 1% of the profits and losses. One hundred percent of Net Cash Receipts available for distribution shall be distributed to the holders of Interests in proportion to their participating percentages as of the record
date for such distributions. However, there shall be accrued for the benefit of the General Partner as its distributive share from operations, an amount equivalent to approximately 1% of the total Net Cash Receipts being distributed, which will be paid only out of distributed Net Cash Proceeds in excess of total Adjusted Original Capital plus a 6% Cumulative Distribution. Under certain circumstances, the General Partner may participate in the Net Cash Proceeds of the sale or refinancing of Partnership properties. The General Partner's participation is limited to 15% of excess Net Cash Proceeds after the return of Original Capital plus a Cumulative Distribution of 6% to the holders of Interests, as defined in the Partnership Agreement.
3. Mortgage Notes Payable:
Mortgage notes payable at December 31, 1994 and 1993 consisted of the following:

4. Management Agreements:

Settlement income of $55,861 was recognized in connection with this transaction.
6. Investment in Joint Ventures with Affiliates:
The Partnership owns 48.4%, 25% and 15.4% joint venture interests in Pinebrook Apartments, North Hill Apartments and Seabrook Apartments, respectively. The joint venturers are affiliates of the Partnership with investment objectives similar to those of the Partnership. During 1994 and 1992, the Partnership made net capital contributions of $154,393 and $127,755, respectively and during 1993, the Partnership received a net capital distribution of $42,153.
Pinebrook Apartments was acquired by a joint venture ("Joint Venture") consisting of the Partnership and an affiliate. The Partnership and the affiliate hold participating percentages in the Joint Venture of 48.43% and 51.57%, respectively. In February 1995, the Joint Venture sold the property for a sale price of $6,140,000. From the proceeds of the sale, the Joint Venture paid approximately $5,097,952, including accrued interest, to the third party mortgage holders in full satisfaction of the outstanding amount of the loans. Additionally, the Joint Venture paid approximately $758,299 to Pinebrook Limited Partnership in full satisfaction of the outstanding amount of its loan, of which the Partnership's share is $367,244. The Joint Venture paid $184,200 as a brokerage commission to an unaffiliated party and approximately $25,975 representing closing and other costs and in 1995 will recognize a gain of $1,814,970. The Joint Venture received proceeds of $13,315 from the sale of the property.
North Hill Apartments is owned by a joint venture ("Joint Venture") in which the Partnership and an affiliate have participating percentages of 25% and 75%, respectively. The $18,700,000 tax-exempt bond issue which funded the first mortgage financing collateralized by the property was in technical default due to the insolvency of the guarantor of the bonds. In April 1993, the Joint Venture and the trustee for the bondholders entered into an agreement in which the loan was modified and the trustee agreed to forebear from commencing foreclosure proceedings while the Joint Venture sought alternate financing. In December 1994, the bonds which funded the previous North Hill Apartments mortgage loan were repaid. The interest rate increased from 6.75% to 8.09% and
the maturity date was extended from December 1994 to December 2024. As a condition of the new agreement, on January 1, 2005, at the discretion of both the Joint Venture and the lender, the bonds will either be repaid or remarketed. Under the terms of the loan, monthly payments increased from $105,188 to $124,920. The Joint Venture repaid the existing mortgage loan of $18,700,000 with proceeds from the new mortgage loan of $16,795,600, which was net of a discount of $84,400, proceeds of a $1,350,000 note from an unaffiliated party, and Joint Venture cash reserves, which included amounts previously held in escrow by the trustee which were refunded to the Joint Venture in conjunction with the refinancing (see Note 9 of Notes to Financial Statements).
The $1,350,000 note to an unaffiliated party is non-interest bearing, is not collateralized by the property, and will be repaid only to the extent net sales proceeds exceed a certain predetermined level.
7. Tax Accounting:
The Partnership keeps its books in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code, rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and existing interpretations thereof. The accompanying financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, will differ from the tax return due to the different treatment of various items as specified in the Internal Revenue Code. The net effect of these accounting differences is that the net income for 1994 in the financial statements is $1,989,169 more than the tax loss of the Partnership for the same period.
8. Transactions with Affiliates:
Fees and expenses paid and payable by the Partnership to affiliates are:

10. Property Sale:
During 1993, the Partnership sold the Sahara Palms Apartments for an all cash sale price of $13,200,000.
