NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

First Equity Properties, Inc. (“FEPI”, “The Company”, “We”, “Us”, or “Our”) is the successor-in interest to WESPAC Investors Trust III, a California real estate investment trust (“WESPAC”) originally established August 22, 1983. FEPI is a Nevada Corporation. The Company is externally advised and has no employees.

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and accordingly, do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management of First Equity Properties, Inc., all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of First Equity Properties, Inc.’s balance sheet, statement of earnings and statement of cash flows, have been included. You should read these financial statements in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. Hereafter in this document, First Equity Properties, Inc. is referred to as FEPI.

Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2007, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2007.

NOTE B. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The accompanying unaudited 2007 financial statements contain an accrual for current federal income taxes calculated using an estimated tax rate of 34%. There are no significant differences between the Company’s net income for financial and income tax reporting.

 

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes.

Results of Operations

The Company’s revenues are consistent with the prior periods. The major operating expenses are related to the professional fees required to maintain the organization. The majority of these expenses consist of legal and accounting fees. The Company is not making quarterly tax payments and is using a tax rate of 34% to estimate the effect of its tax liabilities and penalties.

Three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2006:

The Company’s primary source of income is from interest on notes receivable from affiliated entities. The outstanding balance on the note has remained unchanged since December 31, 2006. Thus, the interest income of approximately $60,000 has not changed from period to period. General and administrative expenses increased by $5,514 in the current period due to additional costs associated with the filings that were not incurred in prior period. The increase in expenses and resulting decrease in the current period’s net income before taxes effectively lowered the estimated income tax expense by $2,185 in the current period.

Six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2006:

The Company’s primary source of income is from interest on notes receivable from affiliated entities. The outstanding balance on the note has remained unchanged since December 31, 2006. Thus the interest income of approximately $119,000 has not changed from period to period. General and administrative expenses increased by $5,192 in the current period due to additional costs associated with the filings that were not incurred in prior period. The increase in income tax expense of $1,740 is due to the estimate including interest and penalties to be incurred due to not making quarterly estimated tax payments in the current period.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

The Company’s significant assets consist of cash of $66,612 and two notes receivables from affiliated parties totaling $2,407,540.

The Company is estimating paying federal income taxes and related penalties and interest of $35,940 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 and has accrued a federal tax liability of $35,674 to date.

Due to affiliates consists of four affiliated payables totaling $1,786,981. The Company has paid down $60,999 of this obligation through the six months period ended June 30, 2007.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

  (a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Vice President, Treasurer and Chief Accounting Officer, and Acting Principal Executive Officer of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Vice President, Treasurer and Chief Accounting Officer and Acting Principal Executive Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting him to material information relating to the Company required to be included in the Company’s periodic SEC filings.

 

  (b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2007, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
