(1)  The condensed statements included herein have been prepared by the registrant, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results of operations for the interim period, on a basis consistent with the annual audited statements.  The adjustments made to these condensed statements consist only of normal recurring adjustments.  Certain information, accounting policies, and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the registrant believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the summary of significant accounting policies and notes thereto included in the registrant's latest annual report on Form 10-K.

(2)  Organization –

AEI Income & Growth Fund 24 LLC (“Company”), a Limited Liability Company, was formed on November 21, 2000 to acquire and lease commercial properties to operating tenants.  The Company's operations are managed by AEI Fund Management XXI, Inc. (“AFM”), the Managing Member.  Robert P. Johnson, the President and sole director of AFM, serves as the Special Managing Member.  AFM is a wholly owned subsidiary of AEI Capital Corporation of which Mr. Johnson is the majority shareholder.  AEI Fund Management, Inc. (“AEI”), an affiliate of AFM, performs the administrative and operating functions for the Company.

The terms of the offering called for a subscription price of $1,000 per LLC Unit, payable on acceptance of the offer.  The Company commenced operations on October 31, 2001 when minimum subscriptions of 1,500 LLC Units ($1,500,000) were accepted.  The offering terminated May 17, 2003 when the extended offering period expired.  The Company received subscriptions for 24,831.283 Units.  Under the terms of the Operating Agreement, the Limited Members and Managing Members contributed funds of $24,831,283 and $1,000, respectively.  The Company shall continue until December 31, 2051, unless dissolved, terminated and liquidated prior to that date.

Any Net Proceeds of Sale, as defined, from the sale or financing of properties which the Managing Members determine to distribute will, after provisions for debts and reserves, be paid in the following manner: (i) first, 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members until the Limited Members receive an amount equal to: (a) their Adjusted Capital Contribution plus (b) an amount equal to 7% of their Adjusted Capital Contribution per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not previously distributed from Net Cash Flow; (ii) any remaining balance will be distributed 90% to the Limited Members and 10% to the Managing Members.  Distributions to the Limited Members will be made pro rata by Units.

For tax purposes, profits from operations, other than profits attributable to the sale, exchange, financing, refinancing or other disposition of property, will be allocated 97% to the Limited Members and 3% to the Managing Members.  Net losses from operations will be allocated 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members.

For tax purposes, profits arising from the sale, financing, or other disposition of property will be allocated in accordance with the Operating Agreement as follows: (i) first, to those Members with deficit balances in their capital accounts in an amount equal to the sum of such deficit balances; (ii) second, 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members until the aggregate balance in the Limited Members' capital accounts equals the sum of the Limited Members' Adjusted Capital Contributions plus an amount equal to 7% of their Adjusted Capital Contributions per annum, cumulative but not compounded, to the extent not previously allocated; (iii) third, the balance of any remaining gain will then be allocated 90% to the Limited Members and 10% to the Managing Members.  Losses will be allocated 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members.

The Managing Members are not required to currently fund a deficit capital balance.  Upon liquidation of the Company or withdrawal by a Managing Member, the Managing Members will contribute to the Company an amount equal to the lesser of the deficit balances in their capital accounts or 1.01% of the total capital contributions of the Limited Members over the amount previously contributed by the Managing Members.

(3)  Investments in Real Estate –

On July 23, 2010, the Company purchased a 31% interest in a Fresenius Medical Center in Hiram, Georgia for $717,359.  The Company incurred $13,958 of acquisition expenses related to the purchase that were expensed.  The property is leased to Fresenius Medical Care–Paulding Dialysis Partners, LLC, a subsidiary of Fresenius Medical Care Holdings, Inc., under a Lease Agreement with a remaining primary term of 11.8 years (as of the date of purchase) and initial annual rent of $61,369 for the interest purchased.  The remaining interest in the property was purchased by AEI Income & Growth Fund 27 LLC, an affiliate of the Company.

(4)  Note Receivable –

On May 19, 2010, as a result of the sale of the Johnny Carino’s restaurant in Littleton, Colorado, the Company received a Note with a principal balance of $1,361,730 as a lease settlement payment from Fired Up, Inc., the parent company of the tenant and guarantor of the Lease.  The Note bears interest at a 7% rate.  The Note requires interest only quarterly payments of $23,830 for two years and monthly payments of principal and interest of $12,242 for the next three years. A balloon payment for the outstanding principal is due on May 19, 2015.

(5)  Payable to AEI Fund Management, Inc. –

AEI Fund Management, Inc. performs the administrative and operating functions for the Company.  The payable to AEI Fund Management represents the balance due for those services.  This balance is non-interest bearing and unsecured and is to be paid in the normal course of business.

(6)  Discontinued Operations –

In November 2007, Kona Restaurant Group, Inc. (KRG), the tenant of the Johnny Carino’s restaurant in Littleton, Colorado, informed the Company that it was closing the restaurant due to lower than expected sales and operating losses.  In March 2008, the Company and KRG entered into an agreement to amend the Lease to reduce the annual rent for the property by 50% to $116,288.  As part of the agreement, Fired Up, Inc., the parent company of KRG and guarantor of the Lease, agreed to provide a Note to the Company with a principal balance equal to the difference between the net proceeds from a sale of the property and the Company’s original cost of the property.

In February 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the Johnny Carino’s restaurant to an unrelated third party.  On May 19, 2010, the sale closed with the Company receiving net proceeds of $833,631, which resulted in a net loss of $1,071,661.  At the time of sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation was $2,223,755 and $318,463, respectively.  As a result of the sale, the Company received a Note with a principal balance of $1,361,730 as a lease settlement payment from Fired Up, Inc.

The financial results for this property are reflected as Discontinued Operations in the accompanying financial statements.  The following are the results of discontinued operations for the periods ended June 30:

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

This section contains "forward-looking statements" which represent management's expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including statements regarding anticipated application of cash, expected returns from rental income, growth in revenue, the sufficiency of cash to meet operating expenses, rates of distribution, and other matters.  These, and other forward-looking statements, should be evaluated in the context of a number of factors that may affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, including the following:

 
Market and economic conditions which affect the value of the properties the Company owns and the cash from rental income such properties generate;
 
the federal income tax consequences of rental income, deductions, gain on sales and other items and the effects of these consequences for Members;
 
resolution by the Managing Members of conflicts with which they may be confronted;
 
the success of the Managing Members of locating properties with favorable risk return characteristics;
 
the effect of tenant defaults; and
 
the condition of the industries in which the tenants of properties owned by the Company operate.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to the carrying value of investments in real estate, the net realizable value of the note receivable and the allocation by AEI Fund Management, Inc. of expenses to the Company as opposed to other funds they manage.

The Company purchases properties and records them in the financial statements at cost (not including acquisition expenses).  The Company tests long-lived assets for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.  For properties the Company will hold and operate, management determines whether impairment has occurred by comparing the property’s probability-weighted future undiscounted cash flows to its current carrying value.  For properties held for sale, management determines whether impairment has occurred by comparing the property’s estimated fair value less cost to sell to its current carrying value.  If the carrying value is greater than the net realizable value, an impairment loss is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the property to its net realizable value.  Changes in these assumptions or analysis may cause material changes in the carrying value of the properties.

The Company evaluates the collectability of the note receivable that it received as a lease settlement payment from a prior tenant.  As part of this process, the Company monitors the financial condition of the note issuer.  As of the date of this filing, the Company believes it will collect all interest and principal related to this note.  Changes in the note issuer’s financial condition may cause a material change in the carrying value of this note.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.  (Continued)

AEI Fund Management, Inc. allocates expenses to each of the funds they manage primarily on the basis of the number of hours devoted by their employees to each fund’s affairs.  They also allocate expenses at the end of each month that are not directly related to a fund’s operations based upon the number of investors in the fund and the fund’s capitalization relative to other funds they manage.  The Company reimburses these expenses subject to detailed limitations contained in the Operating Agreement.

Management of the Company has discussed the development and selection of the above accounting estimates and the management discussion and analysis disclosures regarding them with the managing member of the Company.

Results of Operations

For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized rental income from continuing operations of $728,628 and $697,359, respectively.  In 2011, rental income increased due to additional rent received from one property acquisition in 2010 and a rent increase on one property.  Based on the scheduled rent for the properties owned as of July 31, 2011, the Company expects to recognize rental income from continuing operations of approximately $1,461,000 in 2011.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company incurred LLC administration expenses from affiliated parties of $109,351 and $108,647, respectively.  These administration expenses include costs associated with the management of the properties, processing distributions, reporting requirements and communicating with the Limited Members.  During the same periods, the Company incurred LLC administration and property management expenses from unrelated parties of $23,324 and $25,876, respectively.  These expenses represent direct payments to third parties for legal and filing fees, direct administrative costs, outside audit costs, taxes, insurance and other property costs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized interest income of $49,302 and $13,654, respectively.  In 2011, interest income increased mainly due to interest earned on the note receivable discussed below.

Upon complete disposal of a property or classification of a property as Real Estate Held for Sale, the Company includes the operating results and sale of the property in discontinued operations.  In addition, the Company reclassifies the prior periods’ operating results of the property to discontinued operations.  For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recognized income from discontinued operations of $334,166, representing rental and lease settlement income less property management expenses of $1,405,827, which was partially offset by a loss on disposal of real estate of $1,071,661.

(KRG), the tenant of the Johnny Carino’s restaurant in Littleton, Colorado, informed the Company that it was closing the restaurant due to lower than expected sales and operating losses.  In March 2008, the Company and KRG entered into an agreement to amend the Lease to reduce the annual rent for the property by 50% to $116,288.  As part of the agreement, Fired Up, Inc., the parent company of KRG and guarantor of the Lease, agreed to provide a Note to the Company with a principal balance equal to the difference between the net proceeds from a sale of the property and the Company’s original cost of the property.

In February 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the Johnny Carino’s restaurant to an unrelated third party.  On May 19, 2010, the sale closed with the Company receiving net proceeds of $833,631, which resulted in a net loss of $1,071,661.  At the time of sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation was $2,223,755 and $318,463, respectively.  As a result of the sale, the Company received a Note with a principal balance of $1,361,730 as a lease settlement payment from Fired Up, Inc.  The Note bears interest at a 7% rate.  The Note requires interest only quarterly payments of $23,830 for two years and monthly payments of principal and interest of $12,242 for the next three years. A balloon payment for the outstanding principal is due on May 19, 2015.

Management believes inflation has not significantly affected income from operations.  Leases may contain rent increases, based on the increase in the Consumer Price Index over a specified period, which will result in an increase in rental income over the term of the leases.  Inflation also may cause the real estate to appreciate in value.  However, inflation and changing prices may have an adverse impact on the operating margins of the properties' tenants, which could impair their ability to pay rent and subsequently reduce the Net Cash Flow available for distributions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company's cash balances increased $46,110 as a result of cash generated from operating activities in excess of distributions paid to the Members.  During the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company's cash balances increased $729,136 as a result of cash generated from the sale of property, which was partially offset by distributions paid to the Members in excess of cash generated from operating activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased from $514,060 in 2010 to $664,666 in 2011 as a result of a decrease in LLC administration and property management expenses in 2011 and net timing differences in the collection of payments from the tenants and the payment of expenses, which were partially offset by a decrease in total income in 2011.

On July 23, 2010, the Company purchased a 31% interest in a Fresenius Medical Center in Hiram, Georgia for $717,359.  The property is leased to Fresenius Medical Care–Paulding Dialysis Partners, LLC, a subsidiary of Fresenius Medical Care Holdings, Inc., under a Lease Agreement with a remaining primary term of 11.8 years (as of the date of purchase) and initial annual rent of $61,369 for the interest purchased.  The remaining interest in the property was purchased by AEI Income & Growth Fund 27 LLC, an affiliate of the Company.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.  (Continued)

The Company's primary use of cash flow, other than investment in real estate, is distribution and redemption payments to Members.  The Company declares its regular quarterly distributions before the end of each quarter and pays the distribution in the first week after the end of each quarter.  The Company attempts to maintain a stable distribution rate from quarter to quarter.  Redemption payments are paid to redeeming Members on a semi-annual basis.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company declared distributions of $618,556 and $618,555, respectively.  Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, distributions of Net Cash Flow were allocated 97% to the Limited Members and 3% to the Managing Members.  Distributions of Net Proceeds of Sale were allocated 99% to the Limited Members and 1% to the Managing Members.  The Limited Members received distributions of $599,999 and $599,999 and the Managing Members received distributions of $18,557 and $18,556 for the periods, respectively.

The Company may acquire Units from Limited Members who have tendered their Units to the Company.  Such Units may be acquired at a discount.  The Company will not be obligated to purchase in any year any number of Units that, when aggregated with all other transfers of Units that have occurred since the beginning of the same calendar year (excluding Permitted Transfers as defined in the Operating Agreement), would exceed 2% of the total number of Units outstanding on January 1 of such year.  In no event shall the Company be obligated to purchase Units if, in the sole discretion of the Managing Member, such purchase would impair the capital or operation of the Company.  During 2011 and 2010, the Company did not redeem any Units from the Limited Members.  In prior years, a total of 16 Limited Members redeemed 401.08 Units for $314,561.  The redemptions increase the remaining Limited Members’ ownership interest in the Company.

The continuing rent payments from the properties, together with cash generated from property sales, should be adequate to fund continuing distributions and meet other Company obligations on both a short-term and long-term basis.

The Economy and Market Conditions

The impact of conditions in the current economy, including the turmoil in the credit markets, has adversely affected many real estate investment funds.  However, the absence of mortgage financing on the Company’s properties eliminates the risks of foreclosure and debt-refinancing that can negatively impact the value and distributions of leveraged real estate investment funds.  Nevertheless, a prolonged economic downturn may adversely affect the operations of the Company’s tenants and their cash flows.  If a tenant were to default on its lease obligations, the Company’s income would decrease, its distributions would likely be reduced and the value of its properties might decline.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS.  (Continued)

Historically, the Company has sold properties at a gain and distributed the gain proceeds as part of its regular quarterly distributions, and to make special distributions on occasion.  The remaining sales proceeds were reinvested in additional properties.  Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2008, general economic conditions caused the volume of property sales to slow dramatically for all real estate sellers.  Until such time as economic conditions allow the Company to begin selling properties at attractive prices, quarterly distributions will reflect the distribution of net core rental income and capital reserves, if any. Distribution rates in 2011 are expected to be consistent with distribution rates in 2010.
