PART I

ITEM 1.                      BUSINESS

Capital Realty Investors-IV Limited Partnership (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership which was formed under the Maryland Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act on December 7, 1983.  On June 13, 1984, the Partnership commenced offering 75,000 units of additional limited partner interest through a public offering managed by Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated.  The Partnership closed the offering on August 31, 1984, at which time 73,500 units of additional limited partnership interest had become subscribed.  As of December 31, 2012, 163 units of additional limited partner interest had been abandoned.

The General Partners of the Partnership are C.R.I., Inc. (“CRI”), which is the Managing General Partner, and current and former shareholders of CRI.  Services for the Partnership are performed by CRI, as the Partnership has no employees of its own.

The Partnership was formed to invest in real estate, which is the Partnership's principal business activity, by acquiring and holding limited partner interests in limited partnerships (“Local Partnerships”).  The Partnership originally made investments in 47 Local Partnerships.  As of December 31, 2012, the Partnership retained investments in three Local Partnerships.  Each of these Local Partnerships owns either a federal or state government-assisted apartment complex, which provides housing principally to the elderly and/or to individuals and families of low or moderate income, or a conventionally financed apartment complex.  The original objectives of these investments, not necessarily in order of importance, were to:

(i)
preserve and protect the Partnership's capital;
(ii)
provide, during the early years of the Partnership's operations, current tax benefits to the partners in the form of tax losses which the partners could use to offset income from other sources;
(iii)
provide capital appreciation through increases in the value of the Partnership's investments and increased equity through periodic payments on the indebtedness of the apartment complexes; and
(iv)
provide cash distributions from sale or refinancing of the Partnership's investments and, on a limited basis, from rental operations.

See Part II, Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, for a discussion of factors affecting the original investment objectives.

The Local Partnerships in which the Partnership invested were organized by private developers who acquired the sites, or options thereon, applied for mortgage financing and applicable mortgage insurance and/or subsidies and who generally remain as the local general partners in the Local Partnerships.  In most cases, the local general partners of the Local Partnerships retain responsibility for maintaining, operating and managing the projects.  However, under certain circumstances, the Local Partnerships' partnership agreements permit removal of the local general partner and replacement with another local general partner or with an affiliate of the Partnership's Managing General Partner.

As a result of its investment in the Local Partnerships, the Partnership became the principal limited partner in 44 (three remaining as of December 31, 2012) Local Partnerships.   As a limited partner, the Partnership's legal liability for obligations of the Local Partnerships is limited to its investment.   The local general partners and affiliates of the Managing General Partner may operate other apartment complexes which may be in competition for eligible tenants with the Local Partnerships' apartment complexes.

The loan encumbering the property associated with the Partnership’s investment in Madison Square is in default.  As of December 31, 2010, the Local Partnership had received notice from the lender of its intent to foreclose on the property.  Accordingly, the Partnership’s basis, which totaled $0 at December 31, 2011 had been reclassified to investment in partnerships held for sale or transfer in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.  (Acquisition fees and property purchase costs totaled $0 at December 31,  2011).  During the year ended December 31, 2011, the property was sold via deed in lieu of foreclosure, and the Local Partnership was dissolved.  At December 31, 2011, the Partnership no longer has a limited partner interest in Madison Square.  The Partnership did not recognize any loss during 2011 from this transaction.

The loan encumbering the property associated with the Partnership’s investment in Westport Village is in default.  The Managing General Partner of the Local Partnership was unable to reach an agreement with the Illinois Housing Development Authority (“IHDA”) to a mortgage restructuring.  IHDA has provided notice of foreclosure sale.  As of December 31, 2011, Westport Village is in receivership pending a foreclosure sale of the property.  Accordingly, the Partnership’s basis in the Local Partnership, which totaled $0 at both December 31, 2012 and 2011, has been reclassified to investment in partnerships held for sale or transfer in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.   (Acquisition fees and property purchase costs totaled $0 at both December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.)  The Partnership’s non-recourse purchase money notes and accrued interest thereon total $840,000 and $3,166,365, respectively, at December 31, 2012 relating to this property.  The Partnership is not anticipating any loss resulting from the change in ownership.  There can be no assurance as to the ultimate timing of the foreclosure sale and/or transfer of ownership of the property.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

None.

ITEM 7.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Partnership's Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section is based on the consolidated financial statements, and contains information that may be considered forward looking, including statements regarding the effect of governmental regulations.  Actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward looking statements and will be affected by a variety of factors including national and local economic conditions, the general level of interest rates, governmental regulations affecting the Partnership and interpretations of those regulations, the competitive environment in which the Partnership operates, and the availability of working capital.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Partnership has disclosed its selection and application of significant accounting policies in Note 1 of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in this annual report on Form 10-K at December 31, 2012.  The Partnership accounts for its investments in partnerships (Local Partnerships) by the equity method because the Partnership is a limited partner in the Local Partnerships.  As such, the Partnership has no control over the selection and application of accounting policies, or the use of estimates, by the Local Partnerships.  Environmental and operational trends, events and uncertainties that might affect the properties owned by the Local Partnerships would not necessarily have a significant impact on the Partnership’s application of the equity method of accounting, since the equity method has been suspended for two Local Partnerships which have cumulative losses in excess of the amount of the Partnership’s investments in those Local Partnerships.  The Partnership reviews property assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable.  Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If an asset was determined to be impaired, its basis would be adjusted to fair value through the recognition of an impairment loss.

GAAP provides guidance on when a company should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable interest entity (VIE) in its financial statements and when it should disclose information about its relationship with a VIE.  Generally, a variable interest entity, or VIE, is an entity with one or more of the following characteristics:  (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (b) as a group the holders of the equity investment at risk lack (i) the ability to make decisions about an entity’s activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (c) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportional to their economic interests and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights.  The primary beneficiary of a VIE is generally the entity that will receive a majority of the VIE’s expected losses, receive a majority of a VIE’s expected residual returns, or both.

The Partnership does not consolidate the Partnership's interests in these VIE’s under this guidance, as it is not considered to be the primary beneficiary.  Accounting guidance requires continued reconsideration as to the consideration of the primary beneficiary. The Partnership currently records the amount of its investment in these partnerships as an asset on its balance sheet, recognizes its share of partnership income or losses in the statements of operations, and discloses how it accounts for material types of these investments in its financial statements.


II-1

PART II

The Partnership’s balance in investment in Local Partnerships represents its maximum exposure to loss.  The Partnership’s exposure to loss on these partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying properties as well as the strength of the local general partners.


General

The Partnership has invested, through Local Partnerships, primarily in federal or state government-assisted apartment complexes intended to provide housing to low and moderate income tenants.  In conjunction with such governmental assistance, which includes federal and/or state financing at below-market interest rates and rental subsidies, certain of the Local Partnerships agreed to regulatory limitations on (i) cash distributions, (ii) use of the properties, and (iii) sale or refinancing.  These limitations typically were designed to remain in place for the life of the mortgage.

The U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) subsidies are provided principally under Sections 8 and 236 of the National Housing Act.  Under Section 8, the government pays to the applicable apartment partnership the difference between market rental rates (determined in accordance with government procedures) and the rate the government deems residents can afford.  Under Section 236, the government provides interest subsidies directly to the applicable apartment partnership through a reduction in the property’s mortgage interest rate.  In turn, the partnership provides a corresponding reduction in resident rental rates.  In compliance with the requirements of Section 8 and Section 236, residents are screened for eligibility under HUD guidelines.  Subsidies are provided under contracts between the federal government and the apartment partnerships.

Subsidy contracts for the investment apartment properties are scheduled to expire through 2029.  The Local Partnerships seek the renewal of expiring subsidy contracts, when appropriate, for their properties.  HUD has in the past approved new subsidy contracts on an annual basis subject to annual appropriations by Congress.  The initial HUD contract renewal process currently provides owners six options for renewing their Section 8 contract depending upon whether the owner can meet the eligibility criteria.

Historically, the Local Partnerships in which the Partnership is invested have met the criteria necessary to renew their Section 8 contracts.

Fairway Park Apartments had a Section 8 HAP contract which expired December 31, 2009.  The Section 8 HAP contract covered 42 of the apartment units in Fairway Park Apartments.  Fairway Park Apartments “opted out” of the Section 8 contract. During 2012 the property was sold.

Tradewinds Terrace had a Section 8 HAP contract which was set to expire on April 30, 2011.  The Section 8 HAP contract covers 52 of the apartment units in Tradewinds Terrace.  On March 1, 2011, the contract was renewed and shall run for a period of 20 years.
 
CRI continues to evaluate the Partnership’s underlying apartment complexes to develop strategies that maximize the benefits to investors. Numerous variables, including adverse general economic conditions, as well as, Local Partnership agreements and regulatory restrictions impact the ability and timing of effectuating the sale of certain properties owned by the Local Partnerships or the Partnership’s interests in the Local Partnerships.  The Managing General Partner continues to explore strategies that will result in the sale of properties owned by the Local Partnerships or the Partnership’s interests in the Local Partnerships at terms advantageous to the Partnership.  While the Managing General Partner cannot predict the outcome for any particular property at this time, the Managing General Partner will continue to work with the Local Partnerships to develop strategies that maximize the benefits to investors.

The Managing General Partner continues to seek strategies to deal with affordable housing policy.  While the Managing General Partner cannot predict the outcome for any particular property at this time, the Managing General Partner will continue to work with the Local Partnerships to develop strategies that maximize the benefits to investors.

Financial Condition/Liquidity

As of December 31, 2012, the Partnership had approximately 4,478 investors who held a total of 73,337 units of additional limited partner interest which were originally sold for the aggregate amount of $73,337,000.  The Partnership originally made investments in 47 Local Partnerships, of which three remain as of December 31, 2012.  The Partnership's liquidity, with unrestricted cash resources of $9,638,145 as of December 31, 2012, along with anticipated future cash distributions from the Local Partnerships, is expected to be adequate to meet its current and anticipated operating cash needs. As of April 30, 2013, there were no material commitments for capital expenditures.

II-2

PART II


During 2012 and 2011, the Partnership received distributions of $774,234 and $415,550, respectively, from the Local Partnerships.

The Partnership's obligations with respect to its investments in Local Partnerships, in the form of nonrecourse purchase money notes having an aggregate principal balance of $1,340,000, plus aggregate accrued interest of $7,723,421, as of December 31, 2012, are payable in full upon the earliest of:  (i) sale or refinancing of the respective Local Partnership's rental property; (ii) payment in full of the respective Local Partnership's permanent loan; or (iii) maturity.

The purchase money note related to the following property has matured and has not been paid or extended as of April 30, 2013.

In receivership.

The remaining purchase money note related to Northridge Park matures in 2025.  As of December 31, 2012, principal and accrued interest balances were $500,000 and $4,557,056, respectively.

The Partnership has received notice from IHDA of foreclosure sale of the Westport Village property.  As of December 31, 2012, Westport Village is in receivership. The Partnership’s non-recourse purchase money notes and accrued interest totaled $840,000 and $3,166,365, respectively, at December 31, 2012. The Partnership's investment balance in this Local Partnership was $0 at both December 31, 2012 and 2011.

The Partnership is not anticipating any loss resulting from the change in ownership.  The Partnership will reflect debt extinguishment when the foreclosure becomes finalized.

See the notes to consolidated financial statements for additional information concerning purchase money notes.

The purchase money notes, which are nonrecourse to the Partnership, are generally secured by the Partnership's interest in the respective Local Partnerships.  There is no assurance that the underlying properties will have sufficient appreciation and equity to enable the Partnership to pay the purchase money notes' principal and accrued interest when due.  If a purchase money note is not paid in accordance with its terms, the Partnership will either have to renegotiate the terms of repayment or risk losing its partnership interest in the respective Local Partnership.  In the event that a purchase money note remains unpaid upon maturity, the noteholders may have the right to foreclose on the Partnership’s interest in the related Local Partnership.
 
The Partnership's inability to pay certain of the purchase money note principal and accrued interest balances when due, and the resulting uncertainty regarding the Partnership's continued ownership interest in the related Local Partnerships, does not adversely impact the Partnership's financial condition because the purchase money notes are nonrecourse and secured solely by the Partnership's interest in the related Local Partnerships.  Therefore, should the investment in any of the Local Partnerships with matured or maturing purchase money notes not produce sufficient value to satisfy the related purchase money notes, the Partnership's exposure to loss is limited because the amount of the nonrecourse indebtedness of each of the matured or maturing purchase money notes exceeds the carrying amount of the investment in each of the related Local Partnerships.  Thus, even a complete loss of the Partnership's interest in one of these Local Partnerships would not have a material adverse impact on the financial condition of the Partnership.

Of the three Local Partnerships in which the Partnership is invested as of December 31, 2012, the one Local Partnership with an associated purchase money note which has matured, or which matures through December 31, 2012, and which remain unpaid or unextended as of April 30, 2013, represented 0% of the Partnership's total distributions received from Local Partnerships and 0% share of income from Local Partnerships for the immediately preceding two calendar years.

The Partnership closely monitors its cash flow and liquidity position in an effort to ensure that sufficient cash is available for operating requirements.  For the year ended December 31, 2012, existing cash resources and receipt of distributions from partnerships were adequate to support net cash used in operating and financing activities.  Cash and cash equivalents increased $5,675,497 during 2012 primarily due to cash proceeds received related to the sale of Mary Allen West Tower and Fairway Park Apartments, partially offset by the fourth quarter Partnership distribution paid in December 2012.  For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, distributions of $774,234 and $415,550, respectively, were received from Local Partnerships.  The Partnership

II-3

PART II

expects to receive a similar or lower amount of distributions from these Local Partnerships in future years as more Section 8 HAP contracts approach expiration, should the related properties enter the Mark-to-Market program with the resulting reduction in rental revenues.

On December 5, 2012, the Partnership paid a cash distribution of $7,333,700 ($100 per Unit) to the Limited Partners who were holders of record as of November 30, 2012.

No cash distribution was paid during 2011.

Results of Operations

2012 Versus 2011

The Partnership’s net income for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased compared to 2011, primarily due to the gain recorded related to the sale of the Partnership's interest in the local partnership owning the Fairway Park property.
 
For financial reporting purposes, the Partnership, as a limited partner in the Local Partnerships, does not record losses from the Local Partnerships in excess of its investment to the extent that the Partnership has no further obligation to advance funds or provide financing to the Local Partnerships.  As a result, the Partnership's share of income from partnerships for both years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 did not include losses of $0.  Distributions of $774,234 and $415,550 received from two Local Partnerships during 2012 and 2011, respectively, and for which the Partnership’s carrying value is zero (equity method suspended), were recorded as increases in the Partnership’s share of income from partnerships in the year received.

Inflation

Inflation generally does not impact the fixed rate long-term financing under which the Partnership's real property investments were purchased.  Future inflation could allow for appreciated values of the Local Partnerships' properties over an extended period of time as rental revenues and replacement values gradually increase.

The combined rental revenues for the Partnership’s remaining properties for the two years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 follow.  Combined rental revenue amounts have been adjusted to reflect property sales and interests transferred during 2012.

ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

The Partnership was informed by Reznick Group, P.C ("Reznick Group"), the Partnership's independent registered public accounting firm, that it had entered into a business combination with J. H. Cohn LLP ("J.H. Cohn"). In connection with the business combination J. H. Cohn legally changed its name to CohnReznick LLP ("CohnReznick") and continues to be registered

II-4

PART II

with the PCAOB. On November 8, 2012, Reznick Group resigned as the Partnership's independent registered public accounting firm.

Effective as of November 8, 2012, the Audit Committee of the Partnership's Board of Directors has appointed CohnReznick as the Partnership's independent registered public accounting firm.

Reznick Group's reports on the Partnership's financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and through the subsequent interim period November 8, 2012 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the subsequent interim period through November 8, 2012, there were (i) no disagreements (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) between the Partnership and Reznick Group on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Reznick Group would have caused Reznick Group to make reference thereto in its reports on the Partnership's financial statements for such years, and (ii) no “reportable events” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

During the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the subsequent interim period through November 8, 2012, neither the Partnership, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted CohnReznick regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered with respect to the financial statements of the Partnership, and no written report or oral advice was provided to the Partnership by CohnReznick that was an important factor considered by the Partnership in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).


ITEM 9A.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Partnership's management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Managing General Partner, who are the equivalent of the Partnership's principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report A Control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Based on such evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

The General Partner must rely on the Local Limited Partnerships to provide the Partnership with certain information necessary to the timely filing of the Partnership’s periodic reports. Factors in the accounting at the Local Limited Partnerships have caused delays in the provision of such information during past reporting periods, and resulted in the Partnership’s inability to file its periodic reports in a timely manner.

Once the Partnership has received the necessary information from the Local Limited Partnerships, the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer believe that the material information required to be disclosed in the Partnership’s periodic report filings with SEC is effectively recorded, processed, summarized and reported, albeit not in a timely manner. Going forward, the Partnership will use the means reasonably within its power to impose procedures designed to obtain from the Local Limited Partnerships the information necessary to the timely filing of the Partnership’s periodic reports.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The General Partner is responsible for establishing and maintaining for the Partnership adequate internal control over financial reporting as that term is defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f), and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. The internal control process, as it is applicable to the Partnership, was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements, and includes those policies and procedures that:


II-5

PART II

(1)
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Partnership;
(2)
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and that the Partnership’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of the management of the Partnership; and
(3)
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Partnership’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements

All internal control processes, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those processes determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the reliability of financial statement preparation and presentation. Further, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Representatives of the General Partner assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting, as it is applicable to the Partnership, as of the end of the Partnership’s most recent fiscal year. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on its assessment, the General Partner has concluded that, for the reasons set forth above under “Disclosure Controls and Procedures,” the internal control over financial reporting, as it is applicable to the Partnership, was ineffective as of December 31, 2012. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Partnership's independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Partnership's independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Partnership to provide only management's report in this annual report.

For purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the term “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in a reporting company’s internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  For the reasons discussed above in this Item 9A, sub-section (a) under the caption “Disclosure Controls and Procedures,” the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting has not been effective in permitting timely reporting of the Partnership’s financial information.  Accordingly, the management of the Partnership believes that this inability to generate timely reports constitutes a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting.

Changes in internal controls

There were no changes in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2012 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION
 
Certain states may assert claims against the Partnership for failure to withhold and remit state income tax on operating profit or where the sale(s) of property in which the Partnership was invested failed to produce sufficient cash proceeds with which to pay the state tax and/or to pay statutory partnership filing fees.  The Partnership is unable to quantify the amount of such potential claims at this time. The Partnership has consistently advised its Partners that they should consult with their tax advisors as to the necessity of filing non-resident returns in such states with respect to their proportional taxes due.

ITEM 14.     PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES

For the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Partnership incurred professional fees for the services of the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firms Reznick Group, P.C. and CohnReznick LLP as follows:

 
2012
 
2011
Audit fees (1)
$
138,000

109,500

Tax fees (2)
13,000

 
13,000

Total billed
$
151,000

 
$
122,500


(1)
Principally fees for the audit of the Partnership’s annual financial statements, the independent registered public accounting firm’s review of the Partnership’s quarterly financial statements, and services provided in connection with the Partnership’s regulatory filings.
(2)
Fees for preparation of Partnership federal and state tax returns.

The Partnership has no directors or officers.  The Board of Directors of the Managing General Partner of the Partnership, serving as the Audit Committee, has approved in advance 100% of the fees paid to, and services provided by the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm. Prior to approving the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm providing any non-audit services, the Board of Directors of the Managing General Partner of the Partnership would assess whether the provision of those services would compromise the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm independence.

On November 8, 2012, Reznick Group resigned as the Partnership's independent registered public accounting firm after the filing of the Partnership's 10-Q for the third quarter of fiscal year 2012. CohnReznick was engaged as the Partnership's new independent registered public accounting firm and performed the fiscal 2012 year end audit. CohnReznick also provided partnership tax return preparation services for the year ended December 31, 2012 and Reznick Group provided partnership tax return preparation services for the year ended December 31, 2011, which services it was determined did not compromise CohnReznick's or Reznick Group's independence.

The Partners
Capital Realty Investors-IV Limited Partnership
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Capital Realty Investors-IV Limited Partnership and subsidiary (the Partnership) as of December 31, 2012 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in partners’ (deficit) capital, and cash flows for the year then ended.  The Partnership's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Capital Realty Investors-IV Limited Partnership and subsidiary as of December 31, 2012, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

CAPITAL REALTY INVESTORS-IV LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011


1.     ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a.           Organization

Capital Realty Investors-IV Limited Partnership (the Partnership) was formed under the Maryland Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act on December 7, 1983, and shall continue until December 31, 2038, unless sooner dissolved in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement.  The Partnership was formed to invest in real estate by acquiring and holding limited partner interests in limited partnerships (Local Partnerships) that own and operate federal or state government-assisted apartment properties, which provide housing principally to the elderly or to individuals and families of low or moderate income, or conventionally financed apartment properties, located throughout the United States.

The General Partners of the Partnership are C.R.I., Inc. (CRI), which is the Managing General Partner, and current and former shareholders of CRI.  The Initial Limited Partner is Rockville Pike Associates Limited Partnership-IV, a limited partnership which includes certain current officers and former employees of CRI or its affiliates.  The Special Limited Partner had been Two Broadway Associates-III, a limited partnership comprised of an affiliate and employees of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner and Smith, Incorporated.  Effective January 1, 2002, Two Broadway Associates-III transferred its interest to MLH Merger Corporation and three individuals.

The Partnership sold 73,500 units at $1,000 per unit of additional limited partner interest through a public offering.  The offering period was terminated on August 31, 1984.  As of December 31, 2012, 163 units of additional limited partner interest had been abandoned.

b.           Method of accounting

The consolidated financial statements of the Partnership are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

c.           Principles of consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of one intermediary limited partnership which has invested in one Local Partnership.  All activity between the intermediary limited partnership and the Partnership has been eliminated in consolidation.

d.           Variable interest entities

GAAP provides guidance on when a company should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable interest entity (VIE) in its financial statements and when it should disclose information about its relationship with a VIE.  Generally, a variable interest entity, or VIE, is an entity with one or more of the following characteristics:  (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (b) as a group the holders of the equity investment at risk lack (i) the ability to make decisions about an entity’s activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (c) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportional to their economic interests and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights.  The primary beneficiary of a VIE is generally the entity that will receive a majority of the VIE’s expected losses, receive a majority of a VIE’s expected residual returns, or both.

The Partnership does not consolidate the Partnership's interests in these VIE’s under this guidance, as it is not considered to be the primary beneficiary.  Accounting guidance requires continued reconsideration as to the consideration of the primary beneficiary. The Partnership currently records the amount of its investment in these partnerships as an asset on its balance sheet, recognizes its share of partnership income or losses in the statements of operations, and discloses how it accounts for material types of these investments in its financial statements.



CAPITAL REALTY INVESTORS-IV LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011








The Partnership’s balance in investment in Local Partnerships represents its maximum exposure to loss.  The Partnership’s exposure to loss on these partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying properties as well as the strength of the local general partners.

e.           Investments in and advances to partnerships

The Partnership’s investment in Local Partnerships is considered to be variable interest entities (VIEs) because the owners of the equity at risk in these entities do not have the power to direct their operations. However, the Partnership is not considered the primary beneficiary of the Local Partnerships since it does not have the power to direct the activities that are considered most significant to the economic performance of these entities.  Therefore, and because the Partnership is a limited partner in the Local Partnerships, the Partnership accounts for the investment in its Local Partnerships using the equity method of accounting.  Under the equity method, the initial investment is recorded at cost, increased or decreased by the Partnership’s share of income or losses, and decreased by distributions received and syndication costs.  The investment balance cannot be reduced below zero.  After the investment account is reduced to zero, receivables due from the Local Partnership are decreased by the Partnership’s share of losses.  Distributions received after the investment account is reduced to zero are recorded as income.

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership's share of cumulative losses for three of the Local Partnerships exceeded the amount of the Partnership's investments in those Local Partnerships by $781,851 and $1,441,170, respectively. Since the Partnership has no further obligation to advance funds or provide financing to these Local Partnerships, the excess losses have not been reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.  The Partnership’s carrying value is zero and the equity method has been suspended for the following two Local Partnerships as of December 31, 2012: Northridge and Westport Village. The Partnership’s carrying value is zero and the equity method has been suspended for the following three Local Partnerships as of December 31, 2011: Fairway Park, Northridge, and Westport Village.   Distributions of $774,234 and $415,550 received from two Local Partnerships during 2012 and 2011, respectively, and for which the Partnership's carrying value is zero (equity method suspended), were recorded as increases in the Partnership's share of income from partnerships in the year received.

f.           Deferred Costs

Acquisition Fees and Property Purchase Costs incurred for services rendered to acquire the Local Partnerships are amortized over 40 years using the straight-line method, beginning upon commencement of operations of the Local Partnerships.  The Partnership regularly assesses deferred costs for the existence of impairment in conjunction with the assessment of its investment in Local Partnerships. Amortization expense for both years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $3,284.  Estimated amortization expense for each of the ensuing years through December 31, 2017 is $1,252.

g.           Investment in partnerships held for sale or transfer

When investments are reclassified to investment in partnerships held for sale or transfer, amortization of the acquisition fees and property purchase costs are discontinued.  Assets held for sale or transfer are recorded at the lower of the carrying amount or expected sales price less costs to sell.

h.           Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of money market funds, time and demand deposits and repurchase agreements with original maturities of three months or less.  Interest income is recognized as earned.

i.           Income taxes

The Partnership has elected to be treated as a pass-through entity for income tax purposes and, as such, is not subject to income taxes.  Rather, all items of taxable income, deductions and tax credits are passed through to and are reported by



CAPITAL REALTY INVESTORS-IV LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011




its owners on their respective income tax returns. The Partnership’s federal tax status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a partnership.  Accordingly, the partnership is not required to take any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity.  The Partnership is required to file and does file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities.  Accordingly, these financial statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes and the Partnership has no other tax positions which must be considered for disclosure.

Accounting guidance conveys how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements. The guidance requires the evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Partnership's tax returns to determine whether tax positions are more-likely-than-not of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-than-likely-not threshold would be recognized as a tax expense in the current year. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Partnership did not recognize any interest or penalties related to the income taxes in its financial statements. Generally, the tax returns filed with the various taxing authorities remain available for audit subject to statutes of limitation specific to those jurisdictions. Income tax returns filed by the Partnership are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years. While no income tax returns are currently being examined by the Internal Revenue Service, tax years since 2009 remain open.

j.           Use of estimates

In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the Partnership is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

k.         Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

1.Level 1 Inputs – quoted priced in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

2.
Level 2 Inputs – observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

3.Level 3 Inputs – unobservable inputs.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy.  In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The balance sheet carrying amount for cash and cash equivalents approximates their fair value.

l.           Impairment analysis

The Partnership reviews property assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable.  Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  Impairment for investments in partnerships is determined by review of the performance of the underlying asset and expected proceeds from the sale of the investment.  If an asset were determined to be impaired, its basis would be adjusted to fair value through the recognition of an impairment loss. Impairment loss for the year ended December 31, 2011 totaled $216,940 and is included in share of income from partnerships on the consolidated statements of operations. There was no impairment loss incurred for the year ended December 31, 2012.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011





m.           Allocation of net income (loss)

Net income (loss) is allocated based on respective partnership interest or units outstanding.  The Partnership has no dilutive interests.

n.           Debt Extinguishment

From time to time, the Partnership transfers its interests in certain equity investments to its purchase money noteholders in satisfaction of notes payable.  The Partnership records a gain on extinguishment of debt for the difference between the book value of the investment being transferred and the book value of the debt and associated acquisition fees and property purchase costs. No debt extinguishment occurred in 2012 or 2011.

o.           Subsequent events

Events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements were available to be issued must be evaluated for recognition or disclosure. The effects of subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that existed at the balance sheet date are recognized in the accompanying financial statements. Subsequent events which provide evidence about conditions that existed after the balance sheet date require disclosure in the accompanying notes. Management evaluated the activity of the Partnership and concluded that no subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the financial statements or disclosure in the notes to the financial statements.

p. Recent accounting pronouncements

In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting standard Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, "Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS". This update amends the guidance on fair value measurements to develop common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with US GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). This ASU does not require additional fair value measurements and is not intended to establish valuation standards or affect valuation practices outside of financial reporting. The Partnership adopted this update as of January 1, 2012 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Partnership's results of operations, financial position, or cash flows during the year ended December 31, 2012.



2.     INVESTMENTS IN PARTNERSHIPS

a.           Due on investments in partnerships and accrued interest payable

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership held limited partner interests in three and six Local Partnerships, respectively, which were organized to develop, construct, own, maintain and operate rental apartment properties.  The remaining amounts due on investments in the Local Partnerships follow.

The remaining purchase money notes have stated interest rates ranging from 8.17% to 9.00%, of which Northridge Park compounds annually and Westport Village has simple interest.  The purchase money notes are non-recourse, but their terms provide for payment in full upon the earliest of: (i) sale or refinancing of the respective Local Partnership's rental property; (ii) payment in full of the respective Local Partnership's permanent loan; or (iii) maturity.

The purchase money note related to the following property has matured and has not been paid or extended as of April 30, 2013.

The remaining purchase money note related to Northridge Park matures in 2025.  As of December 31, 2012, principal and accrued interest balances were $500,000 and $4,557,056, respectively.

The Partnership has received notice from IHDA of foreclosure sale of the Westport Village property.  As of December 31, 2012, Westport Village is in receivership. The Partnership’s non-recourse purchase money notes and accrued interest totaled $840,000 and $3,166,365, respectively, at December 31, 2012.  The Partnership is not anticipating any loss resulting from the change in ownership.

The Partnership's inability to pay certain of the purchase money note principal and accrued interest balances when due, and the resulting uncertainty regarding the Partnership's continued ownership interest in the related Local Partnerships, does not adversely impact the Partnership's financial condition because the purchase money notes are nonrecourse and secured solely by the Partnership's interest in the related Local Partnerships.  Therefore, should the investment in any of the Local Partnerships with matured or maturing purchase money notes not produce sufficient value to satisfy the related purchase money notes, the Partnership's exposure to loss is limited because the amount of the nonrecourse indebtedness of each of the matured or maturing purchase money notes exceeds the carrying amount of the investment in each of the related Local Partnerships.  Thus, even a complete loss of the Partnership's interest in one of these Local Partnerships would not have a material adverse impact on the financial condition of the Partnership.

Of the three Local Partnerships in which the Partnership is invested as of December 31, 2012, the one Local Partnership with an associated purchase money note which has matured, or which matures through December 31, 2012, and which remain unpaid or unextended as of March 31, 2013, represented 0% of the Partnership's total distributions received from Local Partnerships and share of income from Local Partnerships for the immediately preceding two calendar years.

The Managing General Partner continues to address the maturity and impending maturity of the Partnership’s debt obligations and to seek solutions that will provide the most favorable outcome to the Limited Partners.  However, there can be no assurance that these strategies will be successful.

Interest expense on the Partnership's purchase money note for the years ended December 31, 2012 and  2011 was $498,276 and $469,428, respectively.  The accrued interest payable on the purchase money notes of $7,723,421 and $7,225,145 as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, is due on the respective maturity dates of the purchase money notes or earlier, in some instances, if (and to the extent of a portion thereof) the related Local Partnership has distributable net cash flow, as defined in the relevant Local Partnership agreement.

Westport Village

The purchase money note secured by the Partnership’s interest in Westport Associates (Westport Village) matured on September 1, 1999 and was not paid.  The default amount included principal and accrued interest of $840,000 and $1,615,644, respectively.  The Partnership was sued by the noteholders but there has not been any legal action since 2000.




CAPITAL REALTY INVESTORS-IV LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011




The mortgage loan encumbering the property associated with the Partnership’s investment in Westport Village is in default.  The Managing General Partner of the Local Partnership was unable to reach an agreement with IHDA to a mortgage restructuring.  IHDA has provided notice of foreclosure sale of the property.  As of December 31, 2012, Westport Village is in receivership.

Due to the impending foreclosure, the Partnership’s basis in the Local Partnership, along with the net unamortized amount of acquisition fees and property purchase costs, which totaled $0 at both December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, has been reclassified to investment in partnerships held for sale or transfer in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.  The Partnership’s non-recourse purchase money notes and accrued interest thereon total $840,000 and $3,166,365, respectively, at December 31, 2012 relating to this property.  There can be no assurance as to the ultimate timing of the foreclosure sale and/or transfer of ownership of the property.

b.           Interests in profits, losses and cash distributions made by Local Partnerships

The Partnership has a 96.00% to 98.99% interest in profits, losses and cash distributions (as restricted by various federal and state housing agencies) (collectively, the “Agencies”) of each Local Partnership.  An affiliate of the Managing General Partner of the Partnership is also a general partner of each Local Partnership or the intermediary limited partnership which invested in the Local Partnership.  As stipulated by the Local Partnerships’ partnership agreements, the Local Partnerships are required to make annual cash distributions from surplus cash flow, if any.  During 2012 and 2011, the Partnership received cash distributions from rental operations of the Local Partnerships totaling $774,234 and $415,550, respectively.  As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, two and three of the Local Partnerships had aggregate surplus cash, as defined by their respective regulatory Agencies, in the amounts of $586,793 and $864,504, respectively, which may be available for distribution in accordance with their respective regulatory Agencies' regulations.

The cash distributions to the Partnership from the operations of the Local Partnerships may be limited by the Agencies’ regulations.  Such regulations limit annual cash distributions to a percentage of the owner's equity investment in a rental property.  Funds in excess of those which may be distributed to owners are generally required to be placed in a residual receipts account held by the governing state or federal agency for the benefit of the property.  In addition, local general partners have the authority to withhold funds if needed for property repairs, improvements, or other property needs.

Upon sale or refinancing of a property owned by a Local Partnership, or upon liquidation of a Local Partnership, the proceeds from such sale, refinancing or liquidation shall be distributed in accordance with the respective provisions of each Local Partnership's partnership agreement.  In accordance with such provisions, the Partnership would receive from such proceeds its respective percentage interest of any remaining proceeds, after payment of (i) all debts and liabilities of the Local Partnership and certain other items, (ii) the Partnership's capital contributions plus certain specified amounts as outlined in each partnership agreement, and (iii) certain special distributions to the general partners and related entities of the Local Partnership.

c.           Assets held for sale or transfer

Westport Village

The mortgage loan encumbering the property associated with the Partnership's investment in Westport Village is in default. As of December 31, 2012, Westport Village was in receivership pending a foreclosure sale of the property. Accordingly, the Partnership's basis in the Local Partnership, which totaled $0 at both December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, has been reclassified to investment in partnerships held for sale or transfer in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. There can be no assurance as to the ultimate timing of the foreclosure sale and/or transfer of ownership of the property.

d.           Completed sales

Fairway Park

On October 26, 2012, a purchase and sale agreement was entered into between the Partnership and Morey Acquisition LLC to sell the its limited partner interest in the Local Partnership that owns the Fairway Park property for $8,710,000.



CAPITAL REALTY INVESTORS-IV LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011




On December 20, 2012, the sale was complete and the Partnership received proceeds of $8,710,000. The Partnership's basis in this Local Partnership at both December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $0. Net acquisition fees and property purchase costs of $8,294 and $4,130, respectively, were written off and netted against the gain on disposition of investment in partnerships during the year ended December 31, 2012.

From the sales proceeds, the Partnership incurred and paid CRI, Inc. a fee in the amount of $415,560 for services provided in connection with the sale of the limited partnership interest in the Local Partnership. The net gain incurred on the sale was $8,282,016 for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Mary Allen West Tower

On October 13, 2011, the Mary Allen West Tower property was sold. The investment balance at December 31, 2011 was $4,767,709. This represents the distribution the Partnership received from the sale of the property. The distribution proceeds were received on February 22, 2012.

From the sale proceeds, the Partnership paid CRI, Inc. a fee in the amount of $70,000 for services provided in connection with the sale of the Mary Allen West Tower property. At December 31, 2011, this fee had been accrued and was included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The fee was paid during the year ended December 31, 2012.
Madison Square

On May 7, 2008, the Local Managing General Partner signed a contract to sell the property related to Madison Square, Ltd. Dividend Housing Associates (Madison Square) to a non-profit organization. The potential purchaser of the property defaulted on the contract. The mortgage loan encumbering the property associated with the Partnership's investment in Madison Square is in default. During the year ended December 31, 2011, The Michigan State Housing Development Authority sold the property via deed in lieu of foreclosure. The Partnership's basis in this Local Partnership was $0 at both December 31, 2012 and 2011. Acquisition fees and property purchase costs totaled $0 at both December 31, 2012 and 2011. As of December 31, 2011, the Local Partnership was dissolved, and the Partnership no longer holds a limited partner interest in Madison Square. The Partnership did not recognize any loss during 2012 or 2011 from this transaction.

Hale Ohana

On March 18, 2008, the Local Partnership entered into a contract with a third party to sell its property for approximately $3,875,000. The sale was completed on March 15, 2010. The sale resulted in a gain on disposition of investment in partnerships of $1,603,594, which was recognized in 2010. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Partnership received a final distribution of $50,916 relating to the final release of the Local Partnership reserves. This amount is included in gain on disposition of investment in partnership on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

e.           Summarized financial information

Combined balance sheets and combined statements of operations for the three Local Partnerships in which the Partnership is invested as of December 31, 2012, follow.  The information is presented separately for one Local Partnership which has an investment basis (equity method), and for two Local Partnerships for which the Partnership's carrying value is zero (equity method suspended).

f.           Reconciliation of the Local Partnerships' financial statement
net income to taxable income

For federal income tax purposes, the Local Partnerships report on a basis whereby: (i) certain revenue and the related assets are recorded when received rather than when earned; (ii) certain costs are expensed when paid or incurred rather than capitalized and amortized over the period of benefit; and (iii) a shorter life is used to compute depreciation on the property as permitted by the Internal Revenue Code and the underlying regulations.  These returns are subject to examination and, therefore, possible adjustment by the IRS.

3.     RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS




CAPITAL REALTY INVESTORS-IV LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011


In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership paid the Managing General Partner a fee for services in connection with the review, selection, evaluation, negotiation and initial acquisition of the original interests in the Local


Partnerships.  The fee amounted to $1,470,000, which is equal to two percent of the Additional Limited Partners' capital contributions to the Partnership.  The acquisition fee was capitalized and is being amortized over a 40-year period using the straight-line method.

In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is obligated to reimburse the Managing General Partner or its affiliates for certain direct expenses and payroll expenses in connection with managing the Partnership.  Payroll expenses are reimbursed at a factor of 1.75 times base salary.  For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership paid $122,140 and $161,202, respectively, to the Managing General Partner or its affiliates as direct reimbursement of expenses incurred on behalf of the Partnership.  In addition, certain employees of the Managing General Partner provided legal and tax accounting services to the Partnership.  These are reimbursed comparable to third party service charges.  For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership paid $119,434 and $75,755, respectively, to the Managing General Partner or its affiliates for these services.  Such reimbursed expenses are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as general and administrative expenses.

In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is obligated to pay the Managing General Partner an annual incentive management fee (Management Fee), after all other expenses of the Partnership are paid.  The amount of the Management Fee shall not exceed 0.25% of original invested assets, as defined in the Partnership Agreement, and shall be payable from the Partnership's cash available for distribution, as defined in the Partnership Agreement, as of the end of each calendar year, as follows:

(i)
First, on a monthly basis as an operating expense before any distributions to limited partners in an annual amount equal to $375,000; and

(ii)
Second, after distributions to the limited partners in the amount of one percent of the gross proceeds of the offering, the balance of such 0.25% of invested assets.

For each of the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership paid the Managing General Partner a Management Fee of $375,000.

In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Managing General Partner and/or its affiliates may receive a fee of not more than two percent of the sale price of an investment in a Local Partnership or the property it owns, payable under certain conditions upon the sale of an investment in a Local Partnership or the property it owns.  The payment of the fee is subject to certain restrictions, including the achievement of a certain level of sales proceeds and making certain minimum distributions to limited partners. During 2012, the fee was calculated based on the hypothetical sale of the property. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, fees of $415,560 and $70,000, respectively, were incurred.


4.     PARTNERSHIP PROFITS AND LOSSES, AND DISTRIBUTIONS

All profits and losses prior to the first date on which Additional Limited Partners were admitted were allocated 98.49% to the Initial Limited Partner and 1.51% to the General Partners.  Upon admission of the Special Limited Partner and the Additional Limited Partners, the interest of the Initial Limited Partner was reduced to 1.49%.  The interest of the Additional Limited Partners is 97% and the interest of the Special Limited Partner is one percent.  The net proceeds resulting from the liquidation of the Partnership or the Partnership's share of the net proceeds from any sale of a Local Partnership interest or sale or refinancing of the Local Partnership's rental properties which are not reinvested shall be distributed and applied as follows:
 
(i)
to the payment of debts and liabilities of the Partnership (including all expenses of the Partnership incident to the sale or refinancing) other than loans or other debts and liabilities of the Partnership to any partner or any affiliates; such debts and liabilities, in the case of a non-liquidating distribution, to be only those which are then required to be paid or, in the judgment of the Managing General Partner, required to be provided for;
(ii)
to the establishment of any reserves which the Managing General Partner deems reasonably necessary for contingent, unmatured or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Partnership;



CAPITAL REALTY INVESTORS-IV LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011


(iii)
except in the case of a refinancing, to each partner in an amount equal to the positive balance in his capital account as of the date of the sale, adjusted for operations and distributions to that date, but before allocation of any profits for tax purposes realized from such sale and allocated pursuant to the Partnership Agreement;


(iv)
to the limited partners (A) an aggregate amount of proceeds from sale or refinancing and all prior sales or refinancings equal to their capital contributions, without reduction for prior cash distributions other than prior distributions of sale and refinancing proceeds, plus (B) an additional amount equal to a cumulative non-compounded six percent return on each limited partner's capital contribution, reduced, but not below zero, by (1) an annual amount equal to 50% of the losses for tax purposes plus tax credits allocated to such limited partner and (2) distributions of net cash flow to each limited partner, such return, losses for tax purposes and net cash flow distributions commencing on the first day of the month in which the capital contribution was made;
(v)
to the repayment of any unrepaid loans theretofore made by any partner or any affiliate of the Partnership for Partnership obligations and to the payment of any unpaid amounts owing to the General Partners pursuant to the Partnership Agreement;
(vi)
to the General Partners in the amount of their capital contributions;
(vii)
thereafter, for their services to the Partnership, in equal shares to certain general partners, (or their designees) an aggregate fee of one percent of the gross proceeds resulting from (A) such sale (if the proceeds are from a sale rather than a refinancing) and (B) any prior sales from which such one percent fee was not paid to the General Partners or their designees; and the remainder, 12% in the aggregate to the General Partners (or their assignees), 3% to the Special Limited Partner and 85% in the aggregate to the Initial Limited Partner and the Additional Limited Partners (or their assignees) in accordance with their respective partner interests.

Fees payable to certain general partners (or their designees) under (vii) above, together with all other property disposition fees and any other commissions or fees payable upon the sale of apartment properties, shall not in the aggregate exceed the lesser of the competitive rate or six percent of the sale price of the apartment properties.

The Managing General Partner and/or its affiliates may receive a fee of not more than two percent of the sale price of an investment in a Local Partnership or the property it owns, payable under certain conditions upon the sale of an investment in a Local Partnership or the property it owns.  The payment of the fee is subject to certain restrictions, including the achievement of a certain level of sale proceeds and making certain minimum distributions to limited partners.

Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, all cash available for distribution, as defined, shall be distributed, not less frequently than annually, 97% to the Additional Limited Partners, one percent to the Special Limited Partner, 0.49% to the Initial Limited Partner and 1.51% in the aggregate to the General Partners after payment of the Management Fee (see Note 3), as specified in the Partnership Agreement.

On December 5, 2012, the Partnership paid a cash distribution of $7,333,700 ($100 per Unit) to the Limited Partners who were holders of record as of November 30, 2012.

As defined in the Partnership Agreement, after the payment of distributions as described in the previous paragraphs, after the establishment of any reserves deemed necessary by the Managing General Partner and after payment of the Management Fee, the Partnership had no remaining cash available for distribution for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.  The Managing General Partner currently intends to retain all of the Partnership's remaining undistributed cash for operating cash reserves.

5.    RECONCILIATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP'S FINANCIAL STATEMENT
NET INCOME TO TAXABLE INCOME

For federal income tax purposes, the Partnership reports on a basis whereby:  (i) certain expenses are amortized rather than expensed when incurred; (ii) certain costs are amortized over a shorter period for tax purposes, as permitted by the Internal Revenue Code and underlying regulations and (iii) certain costs are amortized over a longer period for tax purposes.  The Partnership records its share of losses from its investments in limited partnerships for federal income tax purposes as reported on the Local Partnerships' federal income tax returns (see Note 2.f.), including losses in excess of related investment amounts.  These returns are subject to examination and, therefore, possible adjustment by the IRS.
