NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Accounting Policies
Reference is hereby made to the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
2002, which contains a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the partnership in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies
are also followed in preparing the quarterly report included herein.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements
contain all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary to present fairly
our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and partners' capital
for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are
not necessarily indicative of the final results expected for the full year.
2. Accounting for Oil and Gas Producing Activities
Mewbourne Energy Partners 00-A, L.P., (the "Partnership"), a Delaware limited
partnership formed on February 15, 2000, is engaged primarily in oil and gas
development and production in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Kansas. The
offering of limited and general partnership interests began May 5, 2000 as a
part of an offering registered under the name Mewbourne Energy Partners 99-00
Drilling Programs and concluded October 31, 2000, with total investor
contributions of $10,000,000.
The Partnership follows the full-cost method of accounting for its oil and gas
activities. Under the full-cost method, all productive and nonproductive costs
incurred in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas
properties are capitalized. Depreciation, depletion and amortization of oil and
gas properties subject to amortization is computed on the units-of-production
method based on the proved reserves underlying the oil and gas properties. At
March 31, 2003 and March 31, 2002 substantially all capitalized costs were
subject to amortization. Gains and losses on the sale or other disposition of
properties are not recognized unless such adjustments would significantly alter
the relationship between capitalized costs and the proved oil and gas reserves.
Capitalized costs are subject to a periodic ceiling test that limits such costs
to the aggregate of the present value of future net cash flows of proved
reserves and the lower of cost or fair value of unproved properties.
3. Comprehensive Income
Total comprehensive income (loss) equals net income (loss) during each of the
periods presented herein.
4. Asset Retirement Obligations
On January 1, 2003, the Partnership adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No. 143 ("FAS 143"), "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations."
This statement changes financial accounting and reporting obligations associated
with the retirement and disposal of long-lived assets, including the
Partnership's oil and gas properties, and the associated asset retirement costs.
7
A liability for the estimated fair value of the future plugging and abandonment
costs is recorded with a corresponding increase in the full cost pool at the
time a new well is drilled. Depreciation expense associated with estimated
plugging and abandonment costs is recognized in accordance with the full cost
methodology.
The Partnership estimates a liability for plugging and abandonment costs based
on historical experience and estimated well life. The liability is discounted
using the credit-adjusted risk-free rate of 4.25%. Revisions to the liability
could occur due to changes in well plugging and abandonment costs or well useful
lives, or if federal or state regulators enact new well restoration
requirements. The Partnership recognizes accretion expense in connection with
the discounted liability over the remaining life of the well.
Upon adoption of FAS 143 on January 1, 2003, the Partnership recorded a
discounted liability of $174,713, increased the net full cost pool by $216,505
and recognized a one- time cumulative effect adjustment of $(41,791). The
increase in the net full cost pool included $148,744 for the reversal of
accumulated depreciation related to the inclusion of estimated salvage value of
equipment on the Partnership's oil and gas properties. Prior to the adoption of
FAS 143, the Partnership assumed salvage value approximated plugging and
abandonment costs and as a result was not included in the full cost pool.
A reconciliation of the Partnership's liability for well plugging and
abandonment costs for the three months ended March 31, 2003, is as follows:
Balance upon adoption at January 1, 2003 $ 174,713
Accretion expense 1,856
---------
Balance at March 31, 2003 $ 176,569
---------
5. Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 146 (FAS 146), Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This statement addresses financial
accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities
and was effective for the Partnership beginning January 1, 2003. The adoption of
FAS 146 did not have a material impact on the Partnership.

Item 2 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Mewbourne Energy Partners 00-A, L.P. (the "Partnership")was formed February 15,
2000. The offering of limited and general partnership interests began on May 5,
2000 and concluded on October 31, 2000, with investor partner contributions of
$10,000,000.
The Partnership has acquired interests in oil and gas prospects for the purpose
of development drilling. The Partnership participated in the drilling of 32
wells. 30 wells were productive and 2 wells were abandoned. Of the 30 productive
wells, 27 were producing and 3 were plugged and abandoned at March 31, 2003.
Operations will be conducted with available funds and revenues generated from
oil and gas activities. No bank borrowing is anticipated. The Partnership had
net working capital at March 31, 2003 of $574,039.
During the three months ended March 31, 2003, the Partnership made cash
distributions to the investor partners in the amount of $474,690 as compared to
$515,995 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The Partnership expects that
cash distributions will continue during 2003 as additional oil and gas revenues
are received.
The sale of crude oil and natural gas produced by the Partnership will be
affected by a number of factors which are beyond the Partnership's control.
These factors include the price of crude oil and natural gas, the fluctuating
supply of and demand for these products, competitive fuels, refining,
transportation, extensive federal and state regulations governing the production
and sale of crude oil and natural gas, and other competitive conditions. It is
impossible to predict with any certainty the future effect of these factors on
the Partnership.
Results of Operations
Three months ended March 31, 2003 as compared to the three months ended March
31, 2002.
Oil and gas revenues. Oil and gas revenues during the three months ended March
31, 2003 totaled $908,796. Production volumes during the period were
approximately 7,626 bbls of oil and 100,891 mcf of gas at corresponding average
realized prices of $33.82 per bbl of oil and $6.45 per mcf of gas. Oil and gas
revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2002 totaled $333,923.
Production volumes during the period were approximately 960 bbls of oil and
154,196 mcf of gas at corresponding average realized prices of $17.94 per bbl of
oil and $2.05 per mcf of gas. Oil and gas revenues increased primarily due to
the increase in oil production volumes and increased oil and gas prices. The
increased oil production volumes were attributable to the addition of 2 New
Mexico wells.
Interest Income. Interest income was $140 during the three month period ended
March 31, 2003 as compared to $2,208 during the three months ended March 31,
2002. The decrease is primarily due to the decrease in capital available for
investment.
Lease operations and production taxes. Lease operating expense during the period
ended March 31, 2003 totaled $62,035 compared to $100,500 for the period ended
March 31, 2002. Production taxes during the period ended March 31, 2003 totaled
$74,195 compared to $24,501 for the period ended March 31, 2002. Lease operating
expense decreased primarily due to the workover operations on two wells in 2002
compared to no workover operations in
9
2003. Production taxes increased due to increased oil and gas revenues in 2003.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization. Depreciation, depletion, and
amortization of $154,812 for the three month period ended March 31, 2003 was
comparative to depreciation, depletion, and amortization of $163,452 for the
three month period ended March 31, 2002.
Administrative and general expense. Administrative and general expense of
$29,300 for the three month period ended March 31, 2003 was comparative to
administrative and general expense of $23,622 for the period ended March 31,
2002.
Asset Retirement Obligation
In accordance with FAS 143, the Partnership has recognized an estimated
liability for future oil and gas well plugging and abandonment costs (see Note
4). The estimated liability is based on historical experience and estimated well
lives. The liability is discounted using the credit-adjusted risk-free rate of
4.25%. Revisions to the liability could occur due to changes in well plugging
and abandonment costs or well useful lives, or if federal or state regulators
enact new well restoration requirements.
Upon adoption of FAS 143 on January 1, 2003, the Partnership recorded a
discounted liability of $174,713, increased the net full cost pool by $216,505
and recognized a one- time cumulative effect adjustment of $(41,791). The
increase in the net full cost pool included $148,744 for the reversal of
accumulated depreciation related to the inclusion of estimated salvage value of
equipment on the Partnership's oil and gas properties. Prior to the adoption of
FAS 143, the Partnership assumed salvage value approximated plugging and
abandonment costs and as a result was not included in the full cost pool.
A reconciliation of the Partnership's liability for well plugging and
abandonment costs for the three months ended March 31, 2003, is as follows:
Balance upon adoption at January 1, 2003 $ 174,713
Accretion expense 1,856
---------
Balance at March 31, 2003 $ 176,569
---------
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 146 (FAS 146), Accounting for Costs
Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. This statement addresses financial
accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities
and was effective for the Partnership beginning January 1, 2003. The adoption of
FAS 146 did not have a material impact on the Partnership.
