Registrant's primary business is to own and hold for investment undeveloped real properties located in Goodlettsville, Sumner County and Nashville, Davidson County, Tennessee (the "Property"). Registrant's investment objectives are preservation of investment capital and appreciation of the value of the Property due to development of the immediately surrounding areas and the growth of the communities.
Financial Information about Industry Segments

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Results of Operations
Sales
The Registrant sold approximately 12 acres, 9 acres and 13 acres at the North Creek Business Park Property in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Gross proceeds were approximately $897,000, $666,000, $1,186,000 million, respectively. From these proceeds, $750,000, $600,000, and $900,000, respectively, were distributed to the limited partners. The remaining proceeds were used to meet operational expenses of the partnership.
Analysis of Operations
Operations of the Registrant are consistent through the years with the following exceptions. The lack of Association expense for 2001 is due to the sale of the North Creek Business Park land in the first quarter of 2001. The decline in property taxes for 2000 is due to successfully appealing the prior years property taxes which had previously been accrued for in full.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
At December 31, 2001, the Partnership had unrestricted cash of $91 and liabilities to non-affiliated entities of $33,774. The cash is insufficient to fund ongoing operations. The Partnership owns assets with a carrying value of $ 605,338 and has total liabilities of $ 55,328. If funds are not sufficient to meet operational expenses in 2002, the General Partner will defer the collection of fees for certain affiliated expenses and will provide advances until cash becomes available.
Critical Accounting Policies
As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, land and improvements held for investment is reported at the lower of carrying value or estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell (Fair Value). To determine the Fair Value, management estimates the future discounted net cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risk associated with the property. If this land is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the Fair Value. Inherent in the calculation of future discounted net cash flows are certain significant management judgments and estimates including, among others, liquidation period, discount rate, selling price, and costs to sell, which significantly impact the Fair Value. Based upon management's analysis of the Partnership's land and improvements held for investment, no impairment charge was necessary at December 31, 2001.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
At December 31, 2001, the Partnership has no capital lease obligations, operating leases, unconditional purchase obligations or other long term obligations. The Partnership does not enter into derivative transactions. Further, the Partnership does not have lines of credit, guarantees, or other commercial commitments. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Partnership has restricted cash balances of $37,246 and $38,877, respectively, to be used to fund property improvements, consisting of utility work. This restricted cash secures a letter of credit in the same amount to ensure that the required developments are made. The Partnership may borrow from the General Partner in order to meet cash flow needs and may have amounts payable to the General Partner for management fees or other services. At December 31, 2001, the Partnership had $21,574 due to the General Partner. Transactions with the General Partner and affiliates are discussed in footnote 4 to the financial statements
.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard Number 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of long-lived Assets (SFAS No. 144). SFAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This Statement requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. SFAS No. 144 requires companies to separately report discontinued operations and extends that reporting to a component of an entity that either has been disposed of (by sale abandonment or in a distribution to owners) or is classified as held for sale. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less selling costs. The Partnership is required to adopt SFAS No. 144 on January 1, 2002. The Partnership does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 144 will have a significant impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
Nashville Land Fund, Ltd. (the Partnership) is a Tennessee Limited Partnership organized in March, 1986 to acquire, own, and hold for investment certain parcels of undeveloped real property located in Metropolitan Nashville, Davidson County, and Sumner County, Tennessee. 222 Partners, Inc. is the General Partner of the Partnership. The Partnership prepares financial statements and income tax returns on the accrual basis of accounting. In the event that the Partnership has short-term cash deficiencies, the General Partner can defer the collection of certain related party expenses or grant interest free advances until cash becomes available.
Estimates
Management of the partnership has made certain estimates and assumptions to prepare these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
Cash belonging to the Partnership is combined in an account with funds from other partnerships related to the General Partner.
Land and Improvements Held for Investment
Land and improvements held for investment are recorded at cost and include two tracts of undeveloped land representing approximately 11 and 23 acres in 2001 and 2000, respectively. Land costs include amounts incurred to acquire and develop the land, including interest and property taxes, during the development period. Costs to hold land, including interest and property taxes, are charged to expense. Land improvement costs incurred include development costs expended subsequent to the acquisition of a tract.
Land and improvements held for investments are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value less estimated costs to sell the assets. If impaired, a loss is provided to reduce the carrying value to the estimated fair value of the land and improvements held for investment. At December 31, 2001 the estimated fair value of the assets was determined through an independent appraisal, dated January 2002. At December 31, 2000, the estimated fair value was determined through recognizing the future discounted cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risk associated with the property.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Income Recognition
Income from sales of land and improvements held for investment is generally recorded on the accrual basis when the buyer's financial commitment is sufficient to provide economic substance to the transaction, and when other criteria of SFAS No. 66 "Accounting for Sales of Real Estate" are satisfied. For sales of real estate where both cost recovery is reasonably certain and the collectibility of the contract price is reasonably assured, but the transaction does not meet the remaining requirements to be recorded on the accrual basis, profit is deferred and recognized under the installment method, which recognizes profit as collections of principal are received. If developments subsequent to the adoption of the installment method occur which cause the transaction to meet the requirements of the full accrual method, the remaining deferred profit is recognized at that time. Any losses on sales of real estate are recognized at the time of the sale.
Income Taxes
No provision has or will be made for Federal income taxes since such taxes are the personal responsibility of the partners. Annually, the partners receive, from the Partnership IRS Form K-1's that provide them with their respective share of taxable income or losses, deductions, and other tax related information. Beginning in 2000, the partnership pays state taxes on earnings from Tennessee operations.
The Partnership accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Partnership's income tax expense relates to state taxes for income from continuing operations in Tennessee.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Partnership Allocations
Net profits, losses and distributions of cash flow of the Partnership are allocated to the partners in accordance with the Partnership agreement as follows:
Partnership net profits are allocated first to any partner with a negative balance in their capital account, determined at the end of the taxable year as if the Partnership had distributed cash flow, in proportion to the negative capital balance account of all partners until no partner's capital account is negative. Net profit allocations are then made to the limited partners up to the difference between their capital account balances and the sum of their adjusted capital contributions (capital balance, net of cumulative cash distributions in excess of preferred returns - 10% annual cumulative return on capital contributed) and unpaid preferred returns. Any remaining net profits are allocated to the limited partners until the taxable year in which cumulative distributions to the limited partners equal their adjusted capital contribution plus an unpaid preferred return. Net profits are then allocated to the general partner until the ratio of the general partner's capital account balance to the capital account balances in excess of adjusted capital contributions and unpaid preferred return of all limited partners is 28% to 72%. Thereafter, profits are generally allocated 28% to the general partner and 72% to the limited partners.
Net losses are allocated to the partners in proportion to their positive capital accounts. Partnership distributions are allocated to the limited partners in an amount equal to their preferred return (10% annual cumulative return on capital contributed) to the extent unpaid to date. Any remaining distributions are allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the general partner until the limited partners have received an amount equal to their adjusted capital contributions, and thereafter, 72% to the limited partners and 28% to the general partner.
Cumulative unpaid preferred returns are $4,266,558 at December 31, 2001 and 2000. Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period associated with transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. During the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999 the Partnership had no components of other comprehensive income (loss). Accordingly, comprehensive income (loss) for each of the years was the same as net income (loss).
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of long-lived Assets (SFAS No. 144). SFAS No. 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This Statement requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. SFAS No. 144 requires companies to separately report discontinued operations and extends that reporting to a component of an entity that either has been disposed of (by sale abandonment or in a distribution to owners) or is classified as held for sale. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less selling costs. The Partnership is required to adopt SFAS No. 144 on January 1, 2002. The Partnership does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 144 will have a significant impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

Restricted Cash
At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Partnership has restricted cash balances of $37,246 and $38,877, respectively, to be used to fund property improvements, consisting of utility work. This restricted cash secures a letter of credit in the same amount to ensure that the required developments are made.
Land and Improvements Held for Investment
The components of land and improvements held for investment at December 31, 2001 and 2000 are $542,826 and $1,246,510, respectively. The aggregate cost for federal income tax purposes was $1,374,910 and $3,195,586 at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the fourth quarter of 2000, based on recent sales projections, management determined that the property held for sale was impaired and, in accordance with SFAS No. 121, recorded a loss of $280,314 to $1,297,468. No additional impairment was determined to be necessary by management for the year ended December 31, 2001.
Related Party Transactions
The General Partner and its affiliates have been actively involved in managing the Partnership. Affiliates of the General Partner receive fees for performing certain services. Expenses incurred for these services for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000, and 1999 are as follows:
