Part I Item 1. Business General Southwest Royalties, Inc. Income Fund VI (the "Partnership" or "Registrant") was organized as a Tennessee limited partnership on December 4, 1986. The offering of limited partnership interests began August 25, 1986, reached minimum capital requirements on October 3, 1986 and concluded January 29, 1987. The Partnership has no subsidiaries. The Partnership has expended its capital and acquired interests in producing oil and gas properties. After such acquisitions, the Partnership has produced and marketed the crude oil and natural gas produced from such properties. In most cases, the Partnership purchased royalty or overriding royalty interests and working interests in oil and gas properties that were converted into net profits interests or other nonoperating interests. The Partnership purchased either all or part of the rights and obligations under various oil and gas leases. The principal executive offices of the Partnership are located at 407 N. Big Spring, Suite 300, Midland, Texas, 79701. The Managing General Partner of the Partnership, Southwest Royalties, Inc. (the "Managing General Partner") and its staff of 245 individuals, together with certain independent consultants used on an "as-needed" basis, perform various services on behalf of the Partnership, including the selection of oil and gas properties and the marketing of production from such properties. H. H. Wommack, III, a stockholder, director, President and Treasurer of the Managing General Partner, is also a general partner. The Partnership has no employees. Principal Products, Marketing and Distribution The Partnership has acquired and holds royalty interests and net profit interests in oil and gas properties located in Texas, New Mexico, Wyoming, Illinois, Colorado and Oklahoma. All activities of the Partnership are confined to the continental United States. All oil and gas produced from these properties is sold to unrelated third parties in the oil and gas business. The revenues generated from the Partnership's oil and gas activities are dependent upon the current market for oil and gas. The prices received by the Partnership for its oil production depend upon numerous factors beyond the Partnership's control, including competition, economic, political and regulatory developments and competitive energy sources, and make it particularly difficult to estimate future prices of oil and natural gas.

The recent strength in the price of crude oil reflects a continued growth in demand for energy. The worldwide demand for oil continues to grow. The United States dependence on foreign oil reached a record 51% in 1996. The supply of oil is not keeping up with the demand on either a domestic or worldwide economic basis. Oil production in the United States fell for the fifth straight year, dropping 1.8% to 6.45 million barrels per day in 1996. At the same time, economic recovery in the world economy continues to apply upward pressure on demand. Current oil consumption of over 70 million barrels per day is growing on an annual basis. This is especially acute in the lesser developed countries as they move toward industrialization. Supply and demand for oil has moved very close to being in balance. The lack of excess capacity in the oil markets has helped push oil prices into the mid- 20's during 1996. For the last several years, the natural gas industry in the United States has been affected generally by a surplus in available natural gas and enhanced delivery capability causing a general deterioration in natural gas prices. In 1996, natural gas prices recovered significantly after having been adversely affected for many years by the chronic oversupply. A colder than normal 1995 and 1996 winter for most of the nation and a cold start for the 1996 and 1997 heating season has increased demand, while supplies have declined creating a guarded optimism within the industry in regards to the 1997 gas price. January 1997's gas price is the highest the industry has seen since deregulation in 1985. Following is a table of the ratios of revenues received from oil and gas production for the last three years: Oil Gas 1996 49% 51% 1995 48% 52% 1994 48% 52% As the table indicates, the Partnership's revenue is almost evenly divided between its oil and gas production, the Partnership revenues will be highly dependent upon the future prices and demands for oil and gas. Seasonality of Business Although the demand for natural gas is highly seasonal, with higher demand in the colder winter months and in very hot summer months, the Partnership has been able to sell all of its natural gas, either through contracts in place or on the spot market at the then prevailing spot market price. As a result, the volumes sold by the Partnership have not fluctuated materially with the change of season.

Customer Dependence No material portion of the Partnership's business is dependent on a single purchaser, or a very few purchasers, where the loss of one would have a material adverse impact on the Partnership. Four purchasers accounted for 63% of the Partnership's total oil and gas production during 1996: Torch Operating Company 28%, Scurlock Permian Corporation 14%, Aquila Southwest Pipeline Corporation 11% and Enron Oil and Transportation Inc 10%. Four purchasers accounted for 62% of the Partnership's total oil and gas production during 1995: Nustar Joint Venture, Aquila Southwest Pipeline, Scurlock Permian Corp. and Enron Oil and Transportation purchased 27%, 14%, 11% and 10%, respectively. Three purchasers accounted for 48% of the Partnership's total oil and gas production during 1994: Nustar Joint Venture, Aquila Southwest Pipeline and Scurlock Permian Corp. purchased 22%, 15% and 11%, respectively. All purchasers of the Partnership's oil and gas production are unrelated third parties. In the event any of these purchasers were to discontinue purchasing the Partnership's production, the Managing General Partner believes that a substitute purchaser or purchasers could be located without undue delay. No other purchaser accounted for an amount equal to or greater than 10% of the Partnership's sales of oil and gas production. Competition Because the Partnership has utilized all of its funds available for the acquisition of net profits or royalty interests in producing oil and gas properties, it is not subject to competition from other oil and gas property purchasers. See Item 2, Properties. Factors that may adversely affect the Partnership include delays in completing arrangements for the sale of production, availability of a market for production, rising operating costs of producing oil and gas and complying with applicable water and air pollution control statutes, increasing costs and difficulties of transportation, and marketing of competitive fuels. Moreover, domestic oil and gas must compete with imported oil and gas and with coal, atomic energy, hydroelectric power and other forms of energy. Regulation Oil and Gas Production - The production and sale of oil and gas is subject to federal and state governmental regulation in several respects, such as existing price controls on natural gas and possible price controls on crude oil, regulation of oil and gas production by state and local governmental agencies, pollution and environmental controls and various other direct and indirect regulation. Many jurisdictions have periodically imposed limitations on oil and gas production by restricting the rate of flow for oil and gas wells below their actual capacity to produce and by imposing acreage limitations for the drilling of wells. The federal government has the power to permit increases in the amount of oil imported from other countries and to impose pollution control measures.

Various aspects of the Partnership's oil and gas activities are regulated by administrative agencies under statutory provisions of the states where such activities are conducted and by certain agencies of the federal government for operations on Federal leases. Moreover, certain prices at which the Partnership may sell its natural gas production are controlled by the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978, the Natural Gas Wellhead Decontrol Act of 1989 and the regulations promulgated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Environmental- The Partnership's oil and gas activities are subject to extensive federal, state and local laws and regulations governing the generation, storage, handling, emission, transportation and discharge of materials into the environment. Governmental authorities have the power to enforce compliance with their regulations, and violations carry substantial penalties. This regulatory burden on the oil and gas industry increases its cost of doing business and consequently affects its profitability. The Managing General Partner is unable to predict what, if any, effect compliance will have on the Partnership. Industry Regulations and Guidelines - Certain industry regulations and guidelines apply to the registration, qualification and operation of oil and gas programs in the form of limited partnerships. The Partnership is subject to these guidelines which regulate and restrict transactions between the Managing General Partner and the Partnership. The Partnership complies with these guidelines and the Managing General Partner does not anticipate that continued compliance will have a material adverse effect on Partnership operations. Partnership Employees The Partnership has no employees; however, the Managing General Partner has a staff of geologists, engineers, accountants, landmen and clerical staff who engage in Partnership activities and operations and perform additional services for the Partnership as needed. In addition to the Managing General Partner's staff, the Partnership engages independent consultants such as petroleum engineers and geologists as needed. As of December 31, 1996, there were 245 individuals directly employed by the Managing General Partner in various capacities.

Item 2. Properties In determining whether an interest in a particular producing property was to be acquired, the Managing General Partner considered such criteria as estimated oil and gas reserves, estimated cash flow from the sale of production, present and future prices of oil and gas, the extent of undeveloped and unproved reserves, the potential for secondary, tertiary and other enhanced recovery projects and the availability of markets. As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership possessed an interest in oil and gas properties located in Jackson and Weld Counties of Colorado; Clinton, Lawrence and Marion Counties of Illinois; Eddy County of New Mexico; Alfalfa, Beaver, Caddo, Ellis, Garvin, Haskell, Leflore, Logan, McClain, Noble, Pottawatomie, Roger Mills, Seminole, Woods and Woodward Counties of Oklahoma; Brazos, Burleson, Crane, Eastland, Ector, Fayette, Gaines, Glasscock, Jim Wells, Lee, Lipscomb, Martin, Midland, Mitchell, Moore, Nolan, Pecos, Reagan, Reeves, Roberts, Robertson, Sterling, Upton, Ward and Winkler Counties of Texas; Crook and Freemont Counties of Wyoming. These properties consist of various interests in approximately 226 wells and units. Due to the Partnership's objective of maintaining current operations without engaging in the drilling of any developmental or exploratory wells, or additional acquisitions of producing properties, there has not been any significant changes in properties during 1996, 1995 and 1994. Upon a determination by Management that they were either not profitable to own or Management received an offer that exceeded the leases reserves, the following leases were sold. During 1996, nine leases were sold for approximately $16,400. The IRT was sold effective June 1995, Rocky Point Shallow, McMillian and NW 32 were sold effective September 1995, Hendry, Worsham and Wilkinson were sold effective April 1996 and the FNB and USA McBride were sold effective May 1996. During 1995, six leases were sold for approximately $42,500. The Moyer #2, Moyer Gas Unit, Sparkman #2, McEntire, Terry and R.D. Jones were sold effective November 1995. During 1994, two leases were sold for approximately $1,800. The Anderson Unit was sold effective January 1994 and the Cline #1 was sold effective September 1994.

Significant Properties The following table reflects the significant properties in which the Partnership has an interest: Date Name and Purchased No. of Proved Reserves* Location and Interest Wells Oil (bbls) Gas (mcf) Mary Shirk 12/86 at 3% 7 68,473 483,428 Upton County, to 50% net Texas profits interests Mobil Amacker 7/87 at 23% 10 71,486 3,432,688 Tippet to 100% net Upton County, profits Texas interests Enron/Rhoda 4/87 at 2% 43 415,494 1,512,202 Walker to 100% net Ward County, profits Texas interests *The reserve estimates were prepared as of January 1, 1997, by Donald R. Creamer, P.E., an independent registered petroleum engineer. The reserve estimates were made in accordance with guidelines established by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 4-10(a) of Regulation S- X. Such guidelines require oil and gas reserve reports be prepared under existing economic and operation conditions, price and costs, as of the date the estimation is made. Prices may include consideration of changes in existing price provided only by contractual arrangements, but not on escalations based upon future conditions. An oil price of $24.16 per barrel was used in the preparation of the reserve report as of January 1, 1997. The West Texas Intermediate posted price at December 31, 1996 of $24.25 was used as the beginning basis for the oil price. Oil price adjustments from $24.25 per barrel were made in the individual evaluations to allow for the average difference between recent prices actually received (current prices) and the West Texas Intermediate posted price on the sales date. This effectively adjusts for temperature, gravity, transportation and impurities on an individual property basis to arrive at a fair value for the selling price. A gas price of $3.94 per mcf was used in the preparation of the reserve report as of January 1, 1997. The El Paso Permian Basin Index posted price at December 31, 1996 of $3.59 was used as the beginning basis for the gas price. Gas price adjustments from $3.59 per mcf were made in the individual evaluations to allow for the average difference between recent prices actually received (current prices) and the El Paso Permian Basin Index posted price on the sales date. This effectively adjusts for temperature, gravity, transportation and impurities on an individual property basis to arrive at a fair value for the selling price.

As also discussed in Part II, Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, oil and gas prices were subject to frequent changes in 1996. The evaluation of oil and gas properties is not an exact science and inevitably involves a significant degree of uncertainty, particularly with respect to the quantity of oil or gas that any given property is capable of producing. Estimates of oil and gas reserves are based on available geological and engineering data, the extent and quality of which may vary in each case and, in certain instances, may prove to be inaccurate. Consequently, properties may be depleted more rapidly than the geological and engineering data have indicated. Unanticipated depletion, if it occurs, will result in lower reserves than previously estimated; thus an ultimately lower return for the Partnership. Basic changes in past reserve estimates occur annually. As new data is gathered during the subsequent year, the engineer must revise his earlier estimates. A year of new information, which is pertinent to the estimation of future recoverable volumes, is available during the subsequent year evaluation. In applying industry standards and procedures, the new data may cause the previous estimates to be revised. This revision may increase or decrease the earlier estimated volumes. Pertinent information gathered during the year may include actual production and decline rates, production from offset wells drilled to the same geologic formation, increased or decreased water production, workovers, and changes in lifting costs, among others. Accordingly, reserve estimates are often different from the quantities of oil and gas that are ultimately recovered. The Partnership has reserves which are classified as proved developed producing, proved developed non-producing and proved undeveloped. All of the proved reserves are included in the engineering reports which evaluate the Partnership's present reserves. Because the Partnership does not engage in drilling activities, the development of proved undeveloped reserves is conducted pursuant to farmout arrangements with the Managing General Partner or unrelated third parties. Generally, the Partnership retains a carried interest such as an overriding royalty interest under the terms of a farmout, or receives cash. The Partnership or the owners of properties in which the Partnership owns an interest can engage in workover projects or supplementary recovery projects, for example, to extract behind the pipe reserves which qualify as proved developed non-producing reserves. See Part II, Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Item 3. Legal Proceedings There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Partnership is a party. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of 1996 through the solicitation of proxies or otherwise.

Part II Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters Market Information Limited partnership interests, or units, in the Partnership were initially offered and sold for a price of $500. Limited partner units are not traded on any exchange and there is no public or organized trading market for them. The Managing General Partner has become aware of certain limited and sporadic transfers of units between limited partners and third parties, but has no verifiable information regarding the prices at which such units have been transferred. Further, a transferee may not become a substitute limited partner without the consent of the Managing General Partner. After completion of the Partnership's first full fiscal year of operations and each year thereafter, the Managing General Partner has offered and will continue to offer to purchase each limited partner's interest in the Partnership, at a price based on tangible assets of the Partnership, plus the present value of the future net revenues of proved oil and gas properties, minus liabilities with a risk factor discount of up to one-third which may be implemented at the sole discretion of the Managing General Partner. However, the Managing General Partner's obligation to purchase limited partner units is limited to an expenditure of an amount not in excess of 10% of the total limited partner units initially subscribed for by limited partners. In 1996, 386 limited partner units were tendered to and purchased by the Managing General Partner at an average base price of $183.01 per unit. During 1995, 127 limited partner units were tendered to and purchased by the Managing General Partner at an average base price of $151.46 per unit. During 1994, 598 limited partner units were tendered to and purchased by the Managing General Partner at an average base price of $157.34 per unit. Number of Limited Partner Interest Holders As of December 31, 1996 there were 909 holders of limited partner units in the Partnership. Distributions Pursuant to Article IV, Section 4.01 of the Partnership's Certificate and Agreement of Limited Partnership "Net Cash Flow" is distributed to the partners on a monthly basis. "Net Cash Flow" is defined as "the cash generated by the Partnership's investments in producing oil and gas properties, less (i) General and Administrative Costs, (ii) Operating Costs, and (iii) any reserves necessary to meet current and anticipated needs of the Partnership, as determined at the sole discretion of the Managing General Partner."
10-K11th Page of 52TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 11th
During 1996, twelve monthly distributions were made totaling $1,138,887, with $1,025,487 distributed to the limited partners and $113,400 to the general partners. For the year ended December 31, 1996, distributions of $51.27 per limited partner unit were made, based upon 20,000 limited partner units outstanding. During 1995, twelve monthly distributions were made totaling $1,009,341, with $910,141 distributed to the limited partners and $99,200 to the general partners. For the year ended December 31, 1995, distributions of $45.51 per limited partner unit were made, based on 20,000 limited partner units outstanding. For the year ended December 31, 1994, twelve monthly distributions were made totaling $815,000, with $733,500 distributed to the limited partners and $81,500 to the general partners. For the year ended December 31, 1994, distributions of $36.68 per limited partner unit were made, based upon 20,000 limited partner units outstanding. Item 6. Selected Financial Data The following selected financial data for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995, 1994, 1993 and 1992 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in Item 8: Years ended December 31, ----------------------------------------------------- 1996 1995 1994 1993 1992 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Revenues $ 1,317,978 1,030,181 1,125,877 1,206,853 1,358,453 Net income 934,674 610,015 592,353 438,100 652,927 Partners' share of net income: General partners 93,468 61,001 59,235 43,810 65,293 Limited partners 841,206 549,014 533,118 394,290 587,634 Limited partners' net income per unit 42.06 27.45 26.66 19.71 29.38 Limited partners' cash distributions per unit 51.27 45.51 36.68 48.96 58.24 Total assets $ 3,044,532 3,249,010 3,648,821 3,871,224 4,520,348

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations General The Partnership was formed to acquire nonoperating interests in producing oil and gas properties, to produce and market crude oil and natural gas produced from such properties and to distribute any net proceeds from operations to the general and limited partners. Net revenues from producing oil and gas properties are not reinvested in other revenue producing assets except to the extent that producing facilities and wells are reworked or where methods are employed to improve or enable more efficient recovery of oil and gas reserves. The economic life of the Partnership thus depends on the period over which the Partnership's oil and gas reserves are economically recoverable. Increases or decreases in Partnership revenues and, therefore, distributions to partners will depend primarily on changes in the prices received for production, changes in volumes of production sold, lease operating expenses, enhanced recovery projects, offset drilling activities pursuant to farmout arrangements and on the depletion of wells. Since wells deplete over time, production can generally be expected to decline from year to year. Well operating costs and general and administrative costs usually decrease with production declines; however, these costs may not decrease proportionately. Net income available for distribution to the limited partners has fluctuated over the past few years and is expected to fluctuate in later years based on these factors. Based on current conditions, management anticipates performing workovers during the next five years to enhance production. The Partnership has the opportunity for potential increases with little decline. Thereafter, the Partnership could possibly experience a normal decline.

The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership increased during the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995 by 26%, or $4.31 per barrel, resulting in an increase of approximately $260,800 in income from net profits interests. Oil sales represented 49% of total oil and gas sales during the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to 48% during the year ended December 31, 1995. The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership increased during the same period by 34%, or $.61 per mcf, resulting in an increase of approximately $367,200 in income from net profits interests. The total increase in income from net profits interests due to the change in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately $628,000. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile over the past decade, and management expects a certain amount of volatility to continue in the foreseeable future. 2. Oil production decreased approximately 4,300 barrels or 7% during the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995, resulting in a decrease of approximately $90,800 in income from net profits interests.

Gas production decreased approximately 98,400 mcf or 16% during the same period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $239,100 in income from net profits interests. The total decrease in income from net profits interests due to the change in production is approximately $329,900. The decrease is primarily attributable to property sales and two wells temporarily shut-in by the gas purchaser due to gas line problems. 3. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 1% higher, or approximately $13,300 more during the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995. Costs and Expenses Total costs and expenses decreased to $383,304 from $420,166 for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively, a decrease of 9%. The decrease is the result of lower general and administrative expense and depletion expense. 1. General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs decreased 2% or approximately $2,900 during the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1995. 2. Depletion expense decreased to $225,000 for the year ended December 31, 1996 from $259,000 for the same period in 1995. This represents a decrease of 13%. Depletion is calculated using the units of revenue method of amortization based on a percentage of current period gross revenues to total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by the Partnership's independent petroleum consultants. A contributing factor to the decline in depletion expense between the comparative periods was the increase in the price of oil and gas used to determine the Partnership's reserves for January 1, 1997 as compared to 1996. Another contributing factor was due to the impact of revisions of previous estimates on reserves. Revisions of previous estimates can be attributed to the changes in production performance, oil and gas price and production costs. The impact of the revision would have decreased depletion expense approximately $32,000 as of December 31, 1995.

B. General Comparison of 1995 and 1994 The following table provides certain information regarding performance factors for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994: Year ended December 31, Increase 1995 1994 (Decrease) ---- ---- ---------- Average price per barrel of oil $ 16.81 15.39 9% Average price per mcf of gas $ 1.82 1.95 (7%) Oil production in barrels 60,500 75,700 (20%) Gas production in mcf 602,000 633,400 (5%) Income from net profits interests $ 1,024,661 1,119,251 (8%) Partnership distributions $ 1,009,341 815,000 24% Limited partner distributions $ 910,141 733,500 24% Per unit distribution to limited partners $ 45.51 36.68 24% Number of limited partner units 20,000 20,000 Revenues The Partnership's income from net profits interests decreased to $1,024,661 from $1,119,251 for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, a decrease of 8%. The principal factors affecting the comparison of the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 are as follows: 1. The average price for a barrel of oil received by the Partnership increased during the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994 by 9%, or $1.42 per barrel, resulting in an increase of approximately $107,500 in income from net profits interests. Oil sales represented 48% of total oil and gas sales during the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994. The average price for an mcf of gas received by the Partnership decreased during the same period by 7%, or $0.13 per mcf, resulting in a decrease of approximately $82,300 in income from net profits interests. The net total increase in income from net profits interests due to the change in prices received from oil and gas production is approximately $25,200. The market price for oil and gas has been extremely volatile over the past decade, and management expects a certain amount of volatility to continue in the foreseeable future.

2. Oil production decreased approximately 15,200 barrels or 20% during the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994, resulting in a decrease of approximately $255,500 in income from net profits interests. Gas production decreased approximately 31,400 mcf or 5% during the same period, resulting in a decrease of approximately $57,100 in income from net profits interests. The net decrease in income from net profits interests due to the change in production is approximately $312,600. The decrease is a result of increased downtime due to mechanical failures during 1995. 3. Lease operating costs and production taxes were 15% lower, or approximately $197,600 less during the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994. The decrease is a result of workover costs in 1994. Costs and Expenses Total costs and expenses decreased to $420,166 from $533,524 for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively, a decrease of 21%. The decrease is the result of a decrease in general and administrative costs and depletion. 1. General and administrative costs consists of independent accounting and engineering fees, computer services, postage, and Managing General Partner personnel costs. General and administrative costs decreased 3% or approximately $5,400 during the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the year ended December 31, 1994. 2. Depletion expense decreased to $259,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995 from $367,000 for the same period in 1994. This represents a decrease of 29%. Depletion is calculated using the units of revenue method of amortization based on a percentage of current period gross revenues to total future gross oil and gas revenues, as estimated by the Partnership's independent petroleum consultants. Consequently, depletion will fluctuate in direct relation to oil and gas revenues. As noted above, oil and gas revenues declined due to a decline in gas prices and oil and gas production for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the same period for 1994. Depletion reflected a comparable decline.

Southwest Royalties, Inc. Income Fund VI (a Tennessee limited partnership) Notes to Financial Statements 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Oil and Gas Properties Oil and gas properties are accounted for at cost under the full-cost method. Under this method, all productive and nonproductive costs incurred in connection with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves are capitalized. Gain or loss on the sale of oil and gas properties is not recognized unless significant oil and gas reserves are involved. The Partnership's policy for depreciation, depletion and amortization of oil and gas properties is computed under the units of revenue method. Under the units of revenue method, depreciation, depletion and amortization is computed on the basis of current gross revenues from production in relation to future gross revenues, based on current prices, from estimated production of proved oil and gas reserves. Under the units of revenue method, the Partnership computes the provision by multiplying the total unamortized cost of oil and gas properties by an overall rate determined by dividing (a) oil and gas revenues during the period by (b) the total future gross oil and gas revenues as estimated by the Partnership's independent petroleum consultants. It is reasonably possible that those estimates of anticipated future gross revenues, the remaining estimated economic life of the product, or both could be changed significantly in the near term due to the potential fluctuation of oil and gas prices or production. The depletion estimate would also be affected by this change. Should the net capitalized costs exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves, discounted at 10%, such excess costs would be charged to current expense. As of December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the net capitalized costs did not exceed the estimated present value of oil and gas reserves. The Partnership's interest in oil and gas properties consists of net profits interests in proved properties located within the continental United States. A net profits interest is created when the owner of a working interest in a property enters into an arrangement providing that the net profits interest owner will receive a stated percentage of the net profit from the property. The net profits interest owner will not otherwise participate in additional costs and expenses of the property.

Southwest Royalties, Inc. Income Fund VI (a Tennessee limited partnership) Notes to Financial Statements Estimates and Uncertainties The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Syndication Costs Syndication costs are accounted for as a reduction of partnership equity. Environmental Costs The Partnership is subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. These laws, which are constantly changing, regulate the discharge of materials into the environment and may require the Partnership to remove or mitigate the environmental effects of the disposal or release of petroleum or chemical substances at various sites. Environmental expenditures are expensed or capitalized depending on their future economic benefit. Costs which improve a property as compared with the condition of the property when originally constructed or acquired and costs which prevent future environmental contamination are capitalized. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and that have no future economic benefits are expensed. Liabilities for expenditures of a non-capital nature are recorded when environmental assessment and/or remediation is probable, and the costs can be reasonably estimated. Gas Balancing The Partnership utilizes the sales method of accounting for gas-balancing arrangements. Under this method the Partnership recognizes sales revenue on all gas sold. As of December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Partnership was under produced by 16,728, 17,104 and 6,435, mcf of gas, respectively.

Southwest Royalties, Inc. Income Fund VI (a Tennessee limited partnership) Notes to Financial Statements Income Taxes No provision for income taxes is reflected in these financial statements, since the tax effects of the Partnership's income or loss are passed through to the individual partners. In accordance with the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", the Partnership's tax basis in its net oil and gas properties at December 31, 1996 and 1995 is $918,466 and $868,967, respectively, less than that shown on the accompanying Balance Sheets in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Partnership considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Partnership maintains its cash at one financial institution. Number of Limited Partner Units As of December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, there were 20,000 limited partner units outstanding.

The Partnership continues to monitor the status of these laws and regulations. As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership has not been fined, cited or notified of any environmental violations and management is not aware of any unasserted violations which would have a material adverse effect upon capital expenditures, earnings or the competitive position in the oil and gas industry. However, the Managing General Partner does recognize by the very nature of its business, material costs could be incurred in the near term to bring the Partnership into total compliance. The amount of such future expenditures is not determinable due to several factors, including the unknown magnitude of possible contaminations, the unknown timing and extent of the corrective actions which may be required, the determination of the Partnership's liability in proportion to other responsible parties and the extent to which such expenditures are recoverable from insurance or indemnifications from prior owners of the Partnership's properties.
