INLAND CAPITAL FUND, L.P.
(a limited partnership)
Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2004
Readers of this Quarterly Report should refer to the Partnership's audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, which are included in the Partnership's 2003 Annual Report, as certain footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained in such audited financial statements have been omitted from this Report.
(1) Organization and Basis of Accounting
InLand Capital Fund, L.P. (the "Partnership") was organized on June 21, 1991 by the filing of a Certificate of Limited Partnership under the Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act of the State of Delaware. On December 13, 1991, the Partnership commenced an Offering of 60,000 Limited Partnership Units pursuant to a Registration under the Securities Act of 1933. The Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") provides for Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation to be the General Partner. The Offering terminated on August 23, 1993, with total sales of 32,399.28 Units, at $1,000 per Unit, resulting in $32,399,282 in gross offering proceeds, not including the General Partner's capital contribution of $500. All of the holders of these Units have been admitted to the Partnership. The Limited Partners of the Partnership will share in their portion of benefits of ownership of the Partnership's real property investments according to the number of Units held. As of Marc
h 31, 2004, the Partnership has repurchased and canceled a total of 62 Units for $56,253 from various Limited Partners through the Units Repurchase Program. Under this program, Limited Partners may under certain circumstances have their Units repurchased for an amount equal to their Invested Capital.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") 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 periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In the opinion of management, the financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations for the period presented herein. Results of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.
The Partnership uses the area method of allocation, which approximates the relative sales method of allocation, whereby a per acre price is used as the standard allocation method for land purchases and sales. The total cost of the parcel is divided by the total number of acres to arrive at a per acre price.
In January 2003, FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46") "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities and Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin (ARB) No. 51", which was revised in December 2003. The primary objectives of FIN No. 46 are to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights (Variable Interest Entities) and how to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the Variable Interest Entity (the Primary Beneficiary). The effective date for the Partnership is March 31, 2004. FIN 46 does not have a material impact on the Partnership's financial condition and results of operations.

(2) Transactions with Affiliates
The General Partner and its Affiliates are entitled to reimbursement for salaries and expenses of employees of the General Partner and its Affiliates relating to the administration of the Partnership. Such costs are included in professional services and general and administrative expenses to Affiliates, of which $8,965 and $5,183 was unpaid as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.
The General Partner is entitled to receive Asset Management Fees equal to one-quarter of 1% of the original cost to the Partnership of undeveloped land annually, limited to a cumulative total over the life of the Partnership of 2% of the land's original cost to the Partnership. Such fees of $6,100 and $9,236 have been incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively and are reported as land operating expenses to Affiliates on the statement of operations, of which $6,100 remained unpaid as of March 31, 2004.
An Affiliate of the General Partner performed sales marketing and advertising services for the Partnership and was reimbursed (as set forth under terms of the Partnership Agreement) for direct costs. Such costs of $3,260 and $3,291 have been incurred and are included in marketing expenses to affiliates for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
An Affiliate of the General Partner performed property upgrades, rezoning, annexation and other activities to prepare the Partnership's land investments for sale and was reimbursed (as set forth under terms of the Partnership Agreement) for salaries and direct costs. For the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Partnership incurred $29,348 of such costs. The Affiliate did not take a profit on any project. Such costs are included in investment properties of which $10,263 and $18,630 was unpaid at March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.

The velocity of the developer's individual home sales at Parcel 12 was slower than was originally projected and consequently, the developer's carrying costs were higher. As a result of the development's financial difficulties, the net sale proceeds available to the Partnership were lower than projected. As of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Partnership has recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $135,000 relating to the mortgage receivable, and $62,289 relating to accrued interest receivable, relating to the sale of Parcel 12. A portion of the related deferred gain for Parcel 12 of $68,829 as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, has also been written off against bad debt expense.
The General Partner guaranteed the third party development loans owed by these limited liability companies. In reviewing the developments' financial situation, our general partner determined that it would be in its best interest to have an affiliate acquire the interests in the LLCs. The general partner and its affiliates concluded that they could better control the continuing costs to complete these developments and would therefore have the best opportunity to limit their exposure under the guarantee agreements and possibly recover a portion of the amount owed. An affiliate of our general partner contributed approximately $50,000 to acquire the interests in the LLCs. The affiliate of the general partner will complete the development and sale of these projects. Our limited partners received distributions that equated to the invested capital allocated to each parcel (parcel capital) plus approximately a 6% return per annum on the parcel capital through the date of the distribution.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Certain statements in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These factors include, among other things the ability to obtain annexation and zoning approvals required to develop our properties; the approval of local governing bodies to develop our properties; successful lobbying of local "no growth" or limited development homeowner groups; adverse changes in real estate, financing and general economic or local conditions; eminent domain proceedings; changes in the environmental conditio
ns or changes in the environmental positions of governmental bodies; and potential conflicts of interest between us and our affiliates, including our general partner.
We electronically file our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The public may read and copy any of the reports that are filed with the SEC at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 405 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference room by calling the SEC at (800)-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an Internet site at (www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding issuers that file electronically.
Critical Accounting Policies
On December 12, 2001, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Financial Reporting Release or FRR No. 60 "Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies." A critical accounting policy is one that would materially effect our operations or financial condition, and requires management to make estimates or judgements in certain circumstances. We believe that our most critical accounting policies relate to how we value our investment properties and mortgage loans receivable and revenue recognition. These judgements often result from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The purpose of the FRR is to provide investors with an understanding of how management forms these policies. Critical accounting policies discussed in this section are not to be confused with accounting principles and methods disclosed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America or GAAP. GAAP requires information in
financial statements about accounting principles, methods used and disclosures pertaining to significant estimates. The following disclosure discusses judgements known to management pertaining to trends, events or uncertainties known which were taken into consideration upon the application of those policies and the likelihood that materially different amounts would be reported upon taking into consideration different conditions and assumptions.
Valuation of Investment Properties - On a quarterly basis, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, we conduct an impairment analysis to ensure that the carrying value of each property does not exceed its estimated fair value. If this were to occur, we would be required to record an impairment loss equal to the excess of carrying value over fair value.
In determining the value of an investment property and whether the property is impaired, management considers several factors such as projected capital expenditures and sales prices. The aforementioned factors are considered by management in determining the value of any particular property. The value of any particular property is sensitive to the actual results of any of these uncertain factors, either individually or taken as a whole. Should the actual results differ from management's judgement, the valuation could be negatively or positively affected.
The valuation and possible subsequent impairment of investment properties is a significant estimate that can and does change based on management's continuous process of analyzing each property.
-12-
Cost Allocation - We use the area method of cost allocation, which approximates the relative sales method of cost allocation, whereby a per acre price is used as the standard allocation method for land purchases and sales. The total cost of the parcel is divided by the total number of acres to arrive at a per acre price.
Valuation of Mortgage Loans Receivable - On a quarterly basis, we conduct an analysis to ensure that the carrying value of each mortgage loan receivable is recoverable from the borrower. If we determine that all or a portion of the receivable is not collectible, we would be required to record an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the amount estimated to be uncollectible.
In determining the value of mortgage loans receivable, management considers projected sales proceeds available and expenses related to the property associated with the mortgage. Should the actual results differ from management's judgement, the valuation could be negatively or positively affected.
The valuation and possible subsequent allowance for doubtful accounts is a significant estimate that can and does change based on management's continuous process of analyzing each mortgage loan receivable.
Revenue Recognition - We recognize income from the sale of land parcels in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 66, "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate".
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On December 13, 1991, we commenced an offering of 60,000 limited partnership units or units at $1,000 per unit, pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-11 under the Securities Act of 1933. The offering terminated on August 23, 1993, after we had sold 32,399.28 units, at $1,000 per unit, resulting in $32,399,282 in gross offering proceeds, not including our general partner's capital contribution of $500. All of the holders of these units have been admitted to our partnership. Our limited partners share in their portion of benefits of ownership of our real property investments according to the number of units held.
We used $25,945,989 of gross offering proceeds to purchase, on an all-cash basis, 18 parcels of land and one building. These investments include the payment of the purchase price, acquisition fees and acquisition costs of such properties. One of the parcels was purchased during 1992, one during 1993, fifteen during 1994 and one during 1995. As of March 31, 2004, we have had multiple sales transactions through which we have disposed of a building and approximately 2,602 acres of the 3,302 acres originally owned. As of March 31, 2004, cumulative distributions to the limited partners have totaled $45,663,321 (which represents a full return of original capital) and $4,413,471 to the general partner. Through March 31, 2004, we have used $5,589,095 of working capital for rezoning and other activities and such amount is included in investment properties.
Our capital needs and resources will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the extent to which we conduct rezoning and other activities relating to utility access, the installation of roads, subdivision and/or annexation of land to a municipality, changes in real estate taxes affecting our land, and the amount of revenue received from leasing. As of March 31, 2004, we own, in whole or in part, seven of our original parcels, the majority of which are leased to local farmers and are generating sufficient cash flow from farm leases to cover property taxes and insurance.
At March 31, 2004, we had cash and cash equivalents of $5,517,938, of which approximately $175,000 is reserved for the repurchase of units through our unit repurchase program. The remaining $5,342,938 is available to be used for our costs and liabilities, cash distributions to partners, and other activities with respect to some or all of our land parcels.
- -13-
We plan to enhance the value of our land through pre-development activities such as rezoning, annexation and land planning. We have already been successful in, or are in the process of, pre-development activity on a majority of our land investments. Parcel 2, annexed to the village of McHenry and zoned for a business park, has two phases of improvements complete and sites are being marketed to potential buyers, of which 34 of the 167 lots were sold as of March 31, 2004. Parcel 4 was zoned for a variety of business uses and has improvements underway. Sites are being marketed to potential buyers, of which approximately 67 acres were sold in various transactions. Parcels 15 and 16 were annexed to the village of Huntley and zoned for residential and commercial development. Parcels 15 and 16 were sold in 2004.
Transactions with Related Parties
Our general partner and its affiliates are entitled to reimbursement for salaries and expenses of employees of the general partner and its affiliates relating to our administration. Such costs of $15,602 and $16,134 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003, respectively, are included in professional services and general and administrative expenses to affiliates, of which $8,965 and $5,183 was unpaid as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.
Our general partner is entitled to receive asset management fees equal to one-quarter of 1% of the original cost of our undeveloped parcels annually, limited to a cumulative total over our life of 2% of the parcels' original cost to us. Such fees of $6,100 and $9,236 have been incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively, of which $6,100 remained unpaid as of March 31, 2004.
An affiliate of our general partner performed sales marketing and advertising services for us and was reimbursed for direct costs. Such costs of $3,260 and $3,291 have been incurred and are included in marketing expenses to affiliates for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.
An affiliate of the general partner performed property upgrades, rezoning, annexation and other activities to prepare our land investments for sale and was reimbursed for salaries and direct costs. For the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Partnership incurred $29,348 of such costs. The affiliate did not take a profit on any project. Such costs are included in investment properties, of which $10,263 and $18,630 was unpaid at March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively.
Results of Operations
As of March 31, 2004, we owned seven parcels of land consisting of approximately 700 acres. Of the 700 acres owned, approximately 633 acres are tillable and leased to local farmers and are generating sufficient cash flow to cover property taxes, insurance and other miscellaneous property expenses.
On January 11, 2002, we sold approximately 108 acres of Parcel 1 on an installment basis and recorded a deferred gain of $1,202,106. As of March 31, 2004, we have received principal payments totaling $1,365,495 and recognized $767,829 of the deferred gain. The remaining deferred gain of $434,277 will be recognized as payments are received. In addition, on April 16, 2001, we sold approximately 60 acres of Parcel 12 on an installment basis and recorded a deferred gain of $447,528. As of March 31, 2004, we have received principal payments totaling $713,865 and recognized $365,325 of the deferred gain. As of March 31, 2004, we have recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $135,000 relating to this mortgage receivable and have reserved the related deferred gain of $68,829 against bad debt expense. The remaining deferred gain of $13,374 will be recognized as payments are received.

Rental income was $21,619 and $42,999 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The decrease is due to decreases in tillable acres as a result of land sales and pre-development activity on our land investments. The decrease was partially offset by the annual increase in lease amounts from tenants.
Interest income was $37,919 and $23,898 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Interest income is primarily a result of the interest income earned on short term investments and interest income earned on our mortgage loan receivable.
General and administrative expenses to non-affiliates were $156,758 and $42,907 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The increase in 2004 is due to accrued state taxes payable as a result of land sales in 2004.
Marketing expenses to non-affiliates were $15,308 and $10,988 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. In 2003 and continuing into 2004, we changed our marketing approach to target homebuilders, industrial users and land developers through direct mailings, newspaper and trade publication advertising and an enhanced website.
Land operating expenses to affiliates were $6,100 and $9,236 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively and relate to asset management fees paid. Our general partner is entitled to receive asset management fees equal to one-quarter of 1% of the original cost of our undeveloped parcels annually, limited to a cumulative total over our life of 2% of the parcels' original cost to us. These amounts decrease as acres are sold.
Land operating expenses to non-affiliates were $8,216 and $34,219 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. These costs primarily include real estate tax expense and ground maintenance expense and insurance expense on the parcels owned. The decrease in 2004 is the result of the sale of parcels.
The velocity of the developer's individual home sales at Parcel 12 was slower than was originally projected and consequently, the developer's carrying costs were higher. As a result of the slower lot sales, the net sale proceeds available to us were lower than anticipated. As of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, we have recorded allowances for doubtful accounts of $135,000 relating to the mortgage receivable and $62,289 relating to accrued interest receivable, relating to the sale of Parcel 12. A portion of the related deferred gain for Parcel 12 of $68,829 as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 has also been written off against bad debt expense.
The General Partner guaranteed the third party development loans owed by these limited liability companies. In reviewing the developments' financial situation, our general partner determined that it would be in its best interest to have an affiliate acquire the interests in the LLCs. The general partner and its affiliates concluded that they could better control the continuing costs to complete these developments and would therefore have the best opportunity to limit their exposure under the guarantee agreements and possibly recover a portion of the amount owed. An affiliate of our general partner contributed approximately $50,000 to acquire the interests in the LLCs. The affiliate of the general partner will complete the development and sale of these projects. Our limited partners received distributions that equated to the invested capital allocated to each parcel (parcel capital) plus approximately a 6% return per annum on the parcel capital through the date of the distribution.
