In 2016, 2015 and 2014, we held investments in unconsolidated joint ventures accounted for under the equity method of accounting (see note 1). Our portion of all significant intercompany transactions was eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

All cash management of the Company is managed by the Operating Partnership. In general, cash receipts are remitted to the Operating Partnership and all cash disbursements are funded by the Operating Partnership. As a result of these transactions, the Operating Partnership had a payable to its General Partner (MAA) of $19,000 at each of the years ended December 31, 2016, and 2015. The Partnership Agreement does not require that this due to/due from be settled in cash until liquidation of the Operating Partnership and therefore there is no regular settlement schedule for these amounts.
