Item I. Business

American Affordable Housing II Limited Partnership (the "Fund")
is a limited partnership which was formed under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on May 13, 1987. Effective as of June 1, 2001 there was a restructuring, and as a result, the Fund's general partner was reorganized as follows. The General Partner of the Fund continues to be Boston Capital Associates Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership. The general partner of the General Partner is BCA Associates Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership, whose sole general partner is C&M Management, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation and whose limited partners are Herbert F. Collins and John P. Manning. Mr. Manning is the principal of Boston Capital Partners, Inc.

The Partnership was formed to acquire limited partner interests in limited partnerships (the" Operating Partnerships"), each of which was to own and operate an apartment complex for low- and moderate income tenants. Each apartment complex qualified for the low-income housing tax credit under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the "Code"), and some apartment complexes also qualified for the historic rehabilitation tax credit under Section 48 of the Code. Section 236 (f) (ii) of the National Housing Act, as amended, in Section 101 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1965, as amended, each provide for the making by HUD of rent supplement payments to low income tenants in properties which receive other forms of federal assistance such as Tax Credits. The payments for each tenant, which are made directly to the owner of their property, generally are in such amounts as to enable the tenant to pay rent equal to 30% of the adjusted family income. Some of the Apartment Complexes in which the Partnership has invested are receiving such rent supplements from HUD.

HUD has been in the process of converting rent supplement assistance to
assistance paid not to the owner of the Apartment Complex, but directly to
the individuals. At this time, the Partnership is unable to predict whether
Congress will continue rent supplement programs payable directly to owners of
the Apartment Complex.

The investment objectives of the Partnership are (i) to provide Investors with tax benefits during the first ten years of operations in the form of (a) low-income housing and historic rehabilitation tax credits which may be applied against the Investors' Federal income tax liability arising from, in the case of individuals, active and portfolio income on a limited basis from passive income, and in the case of corporations, against Federal income tax liability from active and passive income and, as to certain corporations, against all income and (b) passive losses which may be used to reduce an Investor's income in the same manner, (ii) to preserve and protect the capital of the Partnership, (iii) provide long-term capital appreciation through increases in the value of the Partnership's investments, and (iv) provide cash distributions from Capital Transaction proceeds. The General Partners are currently of the belief that the Partnership's investment objectives will be met. Current distributions are not an investment objective of the Partnership.

The offering of Class A Limited Partner interests (the "Units") in the Partnership (the "Public Offering") began on February 2, 1988 and was concluded on September 21, 1988. Investors purchasing 26,501 Units contributed $26,501,000 to the Partnership. The Partnership held interests in 49 Operating Partnerships at March 31, 2001. See Item 2.

1

Item 2. Properties

As of its fiscal year ending March 31, 2001, the Partnership held Limited Partnership interests in the Operating Partnerships described below. In each instance the Apartment Complex owned by the applicable Operating Partnership is eligible for the Federal Housing Tax Credit. Occupancy of a unit in each Apartment Complex which initially complied with the Minimum Set-Aside Test (i.e., occupancy by tenants with incomes equal to no more than a certain percentage of area median income) and the Rent Restriction Test (i.e., gross rent charged tenants does not exceed 30% of the applicable income standards) is referred to hereinafter as "Qualified Occupancy." Each of the Operating Partnerships and each of the respective Apartment Complexes are described more fully in the Prospectus or applicable report on Form 8-K. The General Partners believe that there is adequate casualty insurance on the properties.


Please refer to Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" for a more detailed discussion of operational difficulties experienced by certain of the Operating Partnerships.

Market for the Registrant's Class A Limited Partner

 

Interests and Related Security-Holder Matters


There is no established public trading market for the Units and it is
not anticipated that any public market will develop for the purchase and sale
of any Units.

As of March 31, 2001, the Partnership had 2,367 registered holders of
an aggregate of 26,501 Units.

The Partnership made no distributions to its Limited Partners from
Operating Partnership cash flow from its inception on May 13, 1987 through
March 31, 2001. Because the Partnership invested in Operating Partnerships
owning apartment complexes which receive government assistance, the cash
distributions which may be made by the Operating Partnerships are often
restricted. The Partnership does not anticipate that it will provide
significant cash distributions to its Limited Partners in circumstances other
than refinancing or sale of apartment complexes by the Operating Partnerships.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial

 

Condition and Results of Operations


Liquidity

The Partnership's primary source of funds was the proceeds of its Public Offering. Other sources of liquidity have included (i) interest earned on
capital contributions held pending investment or held for working capital reserves and (ii) cash distributions, if any, from operations of the Operating Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested. Both of these sources of liquidity are available to meet the obligations of the Partnership. The Partnership is currently accruing the annual asset management fees. Asset management fees accrued during the year ended March 31, 2001 were $436,961 and total asset management fees accrued as of March 31, 2001 were $5,148,612.Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, such liabilities will be deferred until the Partnership receives sale or refinancing proceeds from Operating Partnerships, and at that time proceeds from such sales or refinancing would be used to satisfy such liabilities.

Affiliates of the General Partners have advanced $210,128 to the Partnership to pay certain operating expenses. This and any additional advances will be repaid, without interest, from available cash flow, reporting fees or the proceeds of sales or refinancing of the Partnership's interests in Operating Partnerships. Cash flow and reporting fees will be added to the Partnership's Working Capital and will be available to meet future third party obligations of the Partnership. The Partnership is currently pursing, and will continue to aggressively pursue, available cash flow and reporting fees. No significant distributions of cash flow from the Operating Partnerships are anticipated on a long term or short term basis due to the restrictions on rents which apply to low-income apartment complexes.

During 1995 an affiliate of the General Partners funded $100,375, interest free, to the Partnership so that it could make a $100,375 loan to the Operating Partnership Washington Mews. The loan enabled the Operating Partnership to refinance its mortgage at a more favorable rate, and will be repaid by the Operating Partnership with surplus cash from operations. As repayments are received from Washington Mews, they will be used to repay the funding, free of interest, from the General Partners' affiliate. As of March 31, 2001 Washington Mews has repaid the Partnership $100,375. This has been repaid to the affiliate as of March 31, 2001.


Capital Resources

The Partnership received $26,501,000 in subscriptions for Units (at
$1,000 per Unit) during the period February 2, 1988 to September 21, 1988
pursuant to the Public Offering, resulting in net proceeds available for
investment in Operating Partnerships (after payment of acquisition fees and
expenses and funding of a reserve) of approximately $18,550,700.

As of March 31, 2001, the Partnership had committed to investments requiring
cash payments of $18,613,793, all of which has been paid. At March 31, 2001,
the Partnership held working capital of $34,369. Since the Partnership has
completed funding of all investments, it anticipates that there should be no
significant need for capital resources in the future.

Results of Operations

The Partnership was formed with the investment objectives set forth
above under Item 1. The Partnership incurs an annual asset management fee to
Boston Capital Asset Management Limited Partnership in an amount equal to 0.5%
of the aggregate cost of the apartment complexes owned by the Operating
Partnerships, less the amount of certain partnership management and reporting
fees paid or payable by the Operating Partnerships. The annual asset
management fee incurred for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 was
$419,642 and $423,001, respectively. Because the Partnership is not expected
to receive any significant cash flow from the Operating Partnerships in
subsequent years, the annual asset management fee is currently being deferred
and is expected to be paid from the proceeds of sales or refinancing of the
Partnership's interests in Operating Partnerships.

The Partnership expects that all of its cash receipts will be used to
pay third party operating expenses. The Partnership had interest income of
$19,191 and $1,604 in the fiscal years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively. During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, the
Partnership received $5,757 and $8,350, respectively, in distributions of cash
flow and $17,319 and $13,960,respectively, of reporting fees from the
Operating Partnerships. Of the total cash flow received in the fiscal years
ended March 31, 2001 and 2000,$4,477 and $ 7,070, respectively, was recorded
as miscellaneous income instead of as a decrease in Investments in Operating
Limited Partnerships, due to the equity method of accounting. No other
significant sources of income are anticipated.

As of March 31, 2001 and 2000 the Partnership held limited partnership
interests in 49 Operating Partnerships. In each instance the Apartment Complex
owned by the applicable Operating Partnership is eligible for the Federal
Housing Tax Credit. Occupancy of a unit in each Apartment Complex which
initially complied with the Minimum Set-Aside Test (i.e., occupancy y tenants
with incomes equal to no more than a certain percentage of area median income)
and the Rent Restriction Test (i.e., gross rent charged tenants does not
exceed 30% of the applicable income standards) is referred to hereinafter as
"Qualified Occupancy". Each of the Operating Partnerships and each of the
respective Apartment Complexes are described more fully in the Prospectus or
applicable report on Form 8-K. The General Partners believe that there is
adequate casualty insurance on the properties.

As of March 31, 2001 and 2000 the Qualified Occupancy for the Partnership was
99.9%. The Partnership had a total of 49 properties at March 31,2001, of which
47 were at 100% qualified occupancy.

For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 the Operating Partnerships
reflected a net income of $62,171 and $483,315, respectively, when adjusted
for depreciation which is a non-cash item.

For the tax year ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 the Partnership generated
$3,055,655 and $2,414,733, respectively, in passive income tax losses that
were passed through to the investors and also provided $4.5 and $7,
respectively, in tax credits per BAC to the investors. The Operating
Partnerships were allocated tax credits for 10 years. Based on each Operating
Partnership's lease-up, the total credits could be spread over as many as 13
years. In cases where the actual number of years is more than 10, the credits
delivered in the early and later years will be less than the maximum
allowable per year. The decrease in credits provided for the year 1999 mainly

10

resulted from the fact that a large number of the Operating Partnerships were
in their next to last or final year of credit in 1999. The decrease was also
due in part to the recapture of a portion of the credits provided by Fairbanks
Flats Limited Partnership (Fairbanks Flats Apartments) in prior tax years. As
previously reported in the Investment Partnership's 10-Q, Fairbanks Flats was
foreclosed on in the third quarter of 1999. The decrease in tax credits
generated per BAC is expected to continue into calendar year 2000, as the rest
of the Operating Partnerships complete their respective credit periods.

Historically, the financial statements of Rouse Stokes Rowe Housing
Associates, L.P. have been prepared assuming that the Operating Partnership
will continue as a going concern. Despite high occupancy, the property
suffers from cash flow deficits related to excessive operating expenses. As a
result, both of the Operating Partnership's mortgages are in technical default
for non-payment and as such the entire balance has been classified as a
current liability. (The first permanent loan is payable to the stockholder of
Southwark Realty, an affiliate of the Operating General Partner). To date,
efforts to reduce operating expenses have not been successful. Due to its
small size, the property has been unable to take advantage of efficiencies of
scale, which might lower expenses and improve operations. At this time, the
Investment General Partner is drafting an action plan which incorporates items
identified and suggestions made in the most recent site visit report. This
action plan will be reviewed with the Operating General Partner upon
completion and is intended to improve the partnership's compliance with
Section 42.

Lovington Housing Associates, L.P. (Southview Place Apartments) continues to
operate at a weak occupancy level. As of March 31, 2001, the physical
occupancy at the property was 68%. The Management Company continues to market
the units aggressively working with various area non-profit agencies &
advertisers in local and surrounding area newspapers. The local economy and
tenant population was adversely impacted by the decline of local oil
production. The Management Company indicated that occupancy improvements are
contingent on the recovery of the local economy. Deferred maintenance,
specifically interior and exterior painting, is being funded through the
replacement reserve account and operating cash as it becomes available. In
2000, three of four building exteriors were painted and the fourth building
was completed in 2001.

East Ridge Associates Limited Partnership (East Ridge Estate) received a copy
of a Notice of Acceleration and Demand for Payment, filed by the United States
Department of Agriculture (USDA), in May 1999. The General Partner of the
Operating Partnership filed an appeal with the National Appeals in November
1999 and the decision to accelerate the mortgage was upheld by the USDA
National Appeals Division on January 31, 2000. Further actions on the
acceleration were delayed until the appeal by the General Partner on the
decision to change the Management Company from R & K Oxford to Stanford
Management, LLC, an affiliated company, has been finalized.

A decision on the management agent was made in the fourth quarter of 2000,
which did not allow Stanford Management, LLC to manage this property. The
Operating General Partner has appealed the decision. The partnership operation
has improved but continues to suffer from ongoing operating deficits, a
delinquent mortgage, and under funded reserves. Additionally, the physical

11

condition of the property has suffered due to deferred maintenance at the
property. The exterior of the building is in poor condition and requires
capital improvements, the unit interiors are in excellent condition, the
common areas are in fair condition, and the landscaping needs attention. The
deferred maintenance will be addressed in a workout plan, which is pending a
final decision on the management agent. Maine Rural Development has allowed
the property to admit non-elderly tenants that are income qualified due to a
change in the demographics of the marketplace of the Southwest Harbor. The
first quarter 2001 occupancy was 100% as a result of Maine Rural Development
issuing waivers to East Ridge on a case-by-case basis. The Investment General
Partner will continue to monitor the negotiations between the Operating
General Partner and Maine Rural Development.


Harbor Hill Associates Limited Partnership (Harbor Hill Estates) received a
service letter (mortgage default notice) from United States Department of
Agriculture/Rural Development (USDA/RD) on January 3, 2001. USDA/RD has
agreed not to take any further action against the partnership until an appeal
by the Operating General Partner regarding a change in management is
finalized. During the fourth quarter of 2000 USDA/RD decided not to allow a
transfer in management from R & K Oxford to Stanford Management, LLC, an
affiliate of the Operating General Partner. It is this decision that is
currently being appealed.

The partnership operation suffers from ongoing operating deficits, under
funded reserves and unpaid real estate taxes. Additionally, the physical
condition of the property has suffered due to deferred maintenance at the
property. The exterior of the building is in poor condition and requires
capital improvements, the common areas are in fair condition, and the
landscaping needs attention. The unit interiors are well maintained. The
Operating General Partner has prepared and submitted a workout plan to the
USDA/RD to address the issues at the property, including the deferred
maintenance. A decision on the workout plan is pending the decision on the
Operating General Partner's appeal of the management transfer. In addition,
USDA/RD has allowed the property to admit non-elderly tenants that are income
qualified due to a change in the demographics of the marketplace of Bar
Harbor, ME. The first quarter 2001 occupancy was 97%, up from 87% for the
first quarter of 2000, as a result of USDA/RD issuing waivers to Harbor Hill
on a case-by-case basis. The Investment General Partner will continue to
monitor the negotiations between the Operating General Partner and USDA/RD.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Partners
American Affordable Housing II
  Limited Partnership

             We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of American Affordable Housing II Limited Partnership as of March 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related statements of operations, changes in partners’ deficit and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2001.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.  We did not audit the financial statements of certain operating limited partnerships in which American Affordable Housing II Limited Partnership owns a limited partnership interest.  Investments in such partnerships comprise 48% and 42% of the assets as of March 31, 2001 and 2000, and 7%, 15% and 14% of the partnership loss for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2001, of American Affordable Housing II Limited Partnership.  The financial statements of these partnerships were audited by other auditors, whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to information relating to these partnerships, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

             We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

             In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of American Affordable Housing II Limited Partnership as of March 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

             We have also audited the related financial statement schedule listed in Form 10-K, item 14(a) of American Affordable Housing II Limited Partnership as of March 31, 2001.  In our opinion, the schedule presents fairly the information required to be set forth therein, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999

NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

American Affordable Housing II Limited Partnership (the “partnership”) was formed under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on May 13, 1987, for the purpose of acquiring, holding, and disposing of limited partnership interests in operating limited partnerships which were established to acquire, develop, rehabilitate, operate and own newly constructed, existing or rehabilitated apartment complexes which qualify for the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit established by the Tax Reform Act of 1986.  Certain of the apartment complexes may also qualify for the Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit for their rehabilitation of certified historic structures; accordingly, the apartment complexes are restricted as to rent charges and operating methods and are subject to the provisions of Section 42(g)(20) of the Internal Revenue Code relating to the rehabilitation investment credit.  The general partners of the partnership are Boston Capital Associates Limited Partnership and Boston Capital Associates.

In accordance with the limited partnership agreement, profits, losses and cash flow (subject to certain priority allocations and distributions) and tax credits are allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the general partners.

Pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, the partnership filed a Form S-11 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, effective September 21, 1987, which covered the offering (the “Public Offering”) of the partnership’s units of limited partnership interest, as well as the units of limited partnership interest offered by American Affordable Housing I, III, IV and V Limited Partnerships.  The partnership registered 50,000 units of limited partnership interest at $1,000 each unit for sale to the public.  During 1988, the partnership sold 26,501 units of limited partnership interest, representing $26,501,000 of capital contributions.

Income Taxes

No provision or benefit for income taxes has been included in these financial statements since taxable income or loss passes through to, and is reportable by, the partners individually.

Investments in Operating Limited Partnerships

The partnership accounts for its investments in operating limited partnerships using the equity method of accounting.  Under the equity method of accounting, the partnership adjusts its investment cost for its share of each operating limited partnership’s results of operations and for any distributions received or accrued.  However, the partnership recognizes an individual operating limited partnership’s losses only to the extent that the partnership’s share of losses of the operating limited partnership does not exceed the carrying amount of its investment.  Unrecognized losses will be suspended and offset against future individual operating limited partnership income.

A loss in value of an investment in an operating limited partnership other than a temporary decline would be recorded as an impairment loss.  Impairment is measured by comparing the investment carrying amount to the sum of the total amount of the remaining tax credits allocated to the partnership and the estimated residual value of the investment.

Capital contributions to operating limited partnerships are adjusted by tax credit adjusters.  Tax credit adjusters are defined as adjustments to operating limited partnership capital contributions due to reductions in actual tax credits from those originally projected.  The partnership records tax credit adjusters as a reduction in investment in operating limited partnerships and capital contributions payable.

The operating limited partnerships maintain their financial statements based on a calendar year and the partnership utilizes a March 31 year-end.  The partnership records losses and income from the operating limited partnerships on a calendar year basis which is not materially different from losses and income generated if the operating limited partnerships utilized a March 31 year-end.

The partnership records capital contributions payable to the operating limited partnerships once there is a binding obligation to fund a specified amount.  The operating limited partnerships record capital contributions from the partnership when received.

The partnership records acquisition costs as an increase in its investment in operating limited partnerships.  Certain operating limited partnerships have not recorded the acquisition costs as a capital contribution from the partnership.  These differences are shown as reconciling items in note D.

Fiscal Year

For financial reporting purposes, the partnership uses a March 31 year-end, whereas for income tax reporting purposes, the partnership uses a calendar year.  The operating limited partnerships use a calendar year for both financial and income tax reporting.

Net Loss per Unit of Limited Partnership Interest

Net loss per unit of limited partnership interest is calculated based upon the number of units outstanding.  For each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2001, 26,501 units were outstanding.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133,” and SFAS No. 139, “Recission of FASB No. 53 and amendments to FASB Statements No. 63, 89 and 121.”  In September 2000, FASB issued SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities - a replacement of FASB Statement No. 125.”

In most cases, SFAS No. 138 is effective for all fiscal quarters beginning after June 15, 2000.  However, when adopted concurrently with Statement 133, the effective date is determined according to paragraph 48 of Statement 133.  SFAS No. 139 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2000.  SFAS No. 140 is generally effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000.

The fund does not have any derivative or hedging activities and is not in the motion picture or the mortgage banking industries.  Consequently, these pronouncements are not expected to have any effect on the fund’s financial statements.

NOTE B - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

During the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, the partnership entered into several transactions with various affiliates of the general partners, including Boston Capital Partners, Inc., Boston Capital Holdings Limited Partnership, and Boston Capital Asset Management Limited Partnership, as follows:

General and administrative expenses of $6,982, $4,431 and $1,973, incurred by Boston Capital Asset Management Limited Partnership, Boston Capital Holdings Limited Partnership, and Boston Capital Partners, Inc., were charged to operations during the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  At March 31, 2001 and 2000, the unpaid general and administrative expenses totaled $229,550 and $197,514, respectively.

During fiscal year ended March 31, 1995, Boston Capital Asset Management Limited Partnership advanced the partnership $95,375 in order to fund an advance made to an operating limited partnership, as more fully described in note C.  The advance is noninterest bearing and due upon demand.  The amount outstanding at the end of fiscal year 2000 was $40,000.  The balance was repaid in full during fiscal year 2001.

An annual asset management fee based on 0.5% of the aggregate cost of all apartment complexes acquired by the operating limited partnerships has been accrued as payable to Boston Capital Asset Management Limited Partnership.  The aggregate cost is comprised of the capital contributions made by the partnership to the operating limited partnership and 99% of the permanent financing at the operating limited partnership level.  At March 31, 2001 and 2000, the unpaid asset management fees totaled $5,148,611 and $4,711,651, respectively.  The fee is payable without interest as sufficient funds become available.  The asset management fees accrued during the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 were $436,961, $436,961 and $436,961, respectively. These amounts are presented net of reporting fees paid by the operating limited partnerships during the years ended March 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, of $17,319, $13,960 and $16,130, respectively, in the statements of operations.

NOTE C - NOTE RECEIVABLE

Note receivable is an advance made to an operating limited partnership during the fiscal year ended March 31, 1995.  The note, secured by a second mortgage on the property owned by the operating limited partnership, bears interest at 6% per annum and was due December 31, 1997.  The carrying amount of the note receivable approximated fair value as of March 31, 2000.  During 2001, the note receivable was repaid with interest.

NOTE D - INVESTMENTS IN OPERATING LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS

At March 31, 2001 and 2000, the partnership has limited partnership equity interests in 49 and 50 operating limited partnerships, respectively, which own apartment complexes.  During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001, one of the operating limited partnerships was foreclosed upon, and the Investment Partnership has relinquished ownership.

Under the terms of the partnership’s investment in each operating limited partnership, the partnership was required to make capital contributions to the operating limited partnerships.  These contributions were payable in installments over several years based upon each operating limited partnership achieving specified levels of construction and/or operations.  All contributions have been made to the operating limited partnerships as of March 31, 2001 and 2000.  The partnership has no further obligation to make any additional contributions.

The partnership’s investments in operating limited partnerships at March 31, 2001 and 2000 are summarized as follows:

NOTE E - RECONCILIATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT NET LOSS TO TAX RETURN

For income tax purposes, the partnership reports using a December 31 year end.  The partnership’s net loss for financial reporting and tax return purposes for the years ended March 31 is reconciled as follows:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 1999

 

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows.

Capitalization and Depreciation

Land, buildings and improvements are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives using the straight-line method. Improvements are capitalized, while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposal of depreciable property, the appropriate property accounts are to be reduced by the related costs and accumulated depreciation. The resulting gains and losses are to be reflected in the statement of operations.

Income Taxes

No provision or benefit for income taxes has been included in these financial statements since taxable income or loss passes through to, and is reportable by, the partners individually.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The partnership considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents include $101,728 and $101,225 in money market deposits (Note C) at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

 

 

 

NOTE B - ORGANIZATION

Liberty Center, Ltd. was organized under the laws of the State of Florida on June 28, 1988, for the purpose of constructing and operating a 109-unit low income residential apartment project known as Liberty Center.

NOTE C - CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT, MONEY MARKETS AND

MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES

 

Prior to amending the operating reserve agreement June 29, 1993, certificates of deposit, money market funds and marketable equity securities have been established under an agreement between the limited an general partners which provides that such funds are available to fund any excess of operating expenses over operating income for a period of sixty (60) months. Interest earned on these funds is allocated and distributed to the general partner

Annually The operating reserve agreement was amended June 29, 1993, establishing an operating reserve of $100,000 and allowing for a distribution to the general partner of part of the operating reserve. The purpose was substantially the same as that of the prior agreement. A distribution to the general partner of this operating reserve is allowed if certain profitability objectives are met. The operating reserve account totaled $101,778 and $101,225 at December 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998.

NOTE D - PARTNERS' CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS

The partnership has one general partner, The Harris Group, Inc. and one investor limited partner - American Affordable Housing II. As of December 31, 1999, the general partner and the investor limited partner have made capital contributions of $1,014,521 and $1,220,553, respectively.

NOTE E - ACCRUED INTEREST

 

The second mortgage provides for deferral of interest payments based upon projected cash flow as determined annually by the lender. In addition, a portion of the deferred interest payable on the second mortgage may be forgiven based upon the project maintaining a very low income set-aside for a period longer than that required. Interest forgiven increases with each year

the project is extended. No interest has been forgiven at December 31, 1999.

NOTE G TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATED AND RELATED PARTIES

Annual Investor Service Fee

An annual investor service fee of $8,000 is payable to Boston Capital Communication, Inc., an affiliate of American Affordable Housing II Limited Partnership, an investor limited partner which holds a 99% interest in the partnership, for services rendered in reporting to the investor limited partner.

Management Fees

In accordance with the partnership agreement, the partnership pays management fees for services rendered in connection with the leasing and operation of the project. Fees are paid to Liberty Center for the Homeless, Inc. and Harris Group, Inc. Management fees charged to operations for the year ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, $25,347 and $21,600 respectively.

NOTE H PARTNERSHIP PROFITS AND LOSSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS

All profits and losses prior to the first date on which an investor limited partner was admitted (December 1, 1988) were allocated 100% to the general partner. Upon admission of the investor limited partner, the interest of the general partner was reduced to 1%.

Distributable cash flow is defined in the partnership agreement as the sum of all cash receipts less disbursements for operating activities, including the annual investor service fee.

Distributable cash flow is payable annually as follows:

1) 50% to the investor limited partner and 50% to the general partner.

Gain, if any, from a sale or refinancing is allocable as follows:

1) To all partners having negative balances in their capital accounts prior to the distribution of any sale or refinancing proceeds, an amount of such gain to increase their negative balance to zero.

2) To partners who have received or will receive a distribution of sale or refinancing proceeds in excess of their capital accounts, an amount of such gain, if any, equal to such excess; and

3) The remainder of such gain, if any, 50% to the limited partner and 50% to the general partners.

Loss from a sale refinancing is allocable 50% to the limited partner and 50% to the general partners.

Interest earned on certificates of deposit, marketable securities and money market funds is allocable 100% to the general partner.

 

(Note C)

The partnership agreement provides for a special distribution to the general partner in the amount of $100,000.

(Note C)

 

NOTE I REIMBURSEMENT FOR OPERATING PERSONNEL

 

In 1998 the partnership was reimbursed for services provided to an affiliate. The services provided were mainly leasing, tenant assistance, record keeping, and security services. The reimbursement was recorded as a reduction in salary expenses.

 

NOTE J BAD DEBTS

 

The partnership makes every attempt to collect accounts receivable and periodically reviews the accounts to determine collectability. In 1999, the general partner determined that $13,201 of the accounts receivable were not collectable in the ordinary course of business.

RIVERPLACE APARTMENTS LIMITED PARTNERSIHP

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTSYEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000 AND 1999

1. Organization and summary of significant accounting policies:

Organization:

Riverplace Apartments Limited Partnership ("the Partnership"), organized as a Massachusetts Limited Partnership on February 29, 1988, was formed to acquire and operate an affordable residential apartment complex consisting of 100 units located at various scattered locations in Holyoke, Massachusetts ("the Property") as follows: 298, 300, 302, 304 Chestnut Street; 294, 298 Elm Street; 82, 82@ R. Clemente Street; 44 Lyman Street; 22, 24 Northeast Street; 532 South Bridge Street; 527 South Summer Street; and 177, 183, 185 West Street. The project is currently operating under the name Riverplace Apartments. The Partnership Agreement was last amended and restated on September 1, 1988.

Summary of significant accounting policies:

Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Method of accounting:

The financial statements of the Partnership have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles.

Rental income:

Rental income is recognized under the operating method as the rentals become due. Rental payments received in advance are deferred until earned. Residential units are principally on short-term leases.

Rental property:

8

Rental property recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated useful lives of 40 years for buildings, 12 years for certain improvements and 3 to 15 years for personal property using both straight-line and accelerated methods. For federal income tax purposes, depreciation is being calculated using the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS).

Improvements to rental property are capitalized, while expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposal of depreciable property, the appropriate property accounts are reduced by the related costs and accumulated depreciation. The resulting gains and losses are reflected in the statement of operations.

RIVERPLACE APARTMENTS LIMTED PARTNERSHIPNOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS CONTINUEDYEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000 AND 1999

1. Organization and summary of significant accounting policies - continued:

Deferred financing costs:

Deferred financing costs consist of costs associated with obtaining the mortgage on the Property. These costs are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the related debt.

Income taxes:

Federal and state income taxes are not included in the accompanying financial statements because these taxes, if any, are the responsibility of the individual Partners.

The Project is eligible for low-income housing tax credits for a ten-year period, beginning in 1988, which are calculated at between 9.12% - 9.22% of qualified rehabilitation costs. The maximum annual credit is $364,094 and it is a pass-through credit to the partners. The credits for 1999 and 1998 were $32,909 and $350,362, respectively. The year ended December 31 1999 will be the final year in which low-income housing tax credits may be claimed for the Project.

Provisions of the enabling legislation regarding the tax credit restrict occupancy of all 100 apartments to qualified low-income tenants for a fifteen-year period. Recapture provisions of the legislation could result in a required repayment by the partners of a portion of the tax credits if relevant provisions are not adhered to.

Reclassifications:

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1998 financial statements to conform with the 1999 presentation.

2. Partners' capital contributions:

The general partners of the Partnership are Mark A. Berezin, Herbert G. Berezin, and Stephen L. Berezin. As of December 31,

10

1999 and 1998, the general partners have made aggregate capital contributions of $3.

The investment limited partner of the Partnership is American Affordable Housing II Limited Partnership. As of December 31, 1999 and 1998, the investment limited partner has made capital contributions of $2,186,118.

3. Allocation of benefits:

In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, as last amended, all profits and losses from operations and tax credits are allocated as follows:

  1. Allocation of benefits - continued:

Distributable cash flow is defined in the Partnership Agreement, as last amended, to include all profits and losses of the Partnership from operating activities subject to the following adjustments:

(a) Depreciation of rental property and amortization of deferred costs shall not be deducted;

(b) Mortgage principal payment shall be deducted;

Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, as last amended, the General Partners are entitled to receive a sales preparation fee in the amount of 3 % of the gross sales price upon any sale of the Property.

8. Grants:

The Partnership was rewarded two grants under the Federally Assisted Low-Income Housing Elimination Grant Program from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The initial grant was in the amount of $124,960. The Partnership received the entire proceeds of the grant, of which $29, 544 and $95,416 were received in 1999 and 1998, respectively. The grant period expired in 1999. The other grant was awarded to the Partnership in January, 1999 in the amount of $125,000. The term of the grant is twelve months beginning March 1, 1999. An extension of up to six months can be obtained with the approval of HUD. The Partnership received proceeds under this grant of $73,746 during 1999. The remaining amount available to be drawn against the grant is $51,254.

20

The Partnership was also rewarded two grants under the New Approach Anti-Drug Grant Program (formerly known as the Safe Neighborhood Grant Program) from HUD. The initial grant was in the amount of $119,600 and is in a term for twenty-four months beginning May 1, 1998. An extension of up to six months can be obtained with the approval of HUD.

8. Grants continued:

Expenditures of funds under these grant programs are based upon budgets approved by the HUD. Expenditures must be made in compliance with the grant agreements and for the specific purposes of the grant awards. Grant proceeds are received by the Partnership based upon expenditures incurred (cost reimbursement method).

Grant expenditures in excess of grant proceeds are reflected as a receivable in the accompanying balance sheets, since these amounts are expected to be reimbursed to the Partnership under the terms of the grants agreements. During 1999, the Partnership paid certain costs totaling $25,918, which are to be reimbursed under the terms of the grants. Accordingly, this amount will be replenished to the Partnership's operating cash account upon its reimbursement.

 

9. Contingencies:

The Partnership is required to maintain compliance with the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit Program as a condition to receiving low-income housing tax credits. Failure to comply with the requirements of the Low-income Housing Tax Credit Program or to correct noncompliance a specified time period can result in a recapture of a portion of the tax credits previously taken.

The Partnership receives federal financial assistance from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the Drug Elimination and Safe Neighborhood Grant Programs. Expenditures of funds under these programs require compliance with the grant agreements and are subject to audit by HUD. Any disallowed expenditures resulting from such audits become a liability of the Partnership. In the opinion of the Partnership's management, disallowed expenditures, if any, will

22

not have a material effect on the financial position of the Partnership.

The Partnership is involved in a dispute with the City of Holyoke, Massachusetts related to water meter readings and sewer use charges at the Property's 304 Chestnut Street location. In March 1994, the Holyoke Water Department determined that its meter reader had been incorrectly reading the water meter at this location since December 1989. As a result, the City has

alleged that the Partnership had only been billed for a small portion of the total water consumption and sewer use charges at this location for the period from December, 1989 to March, 1994. The City billed the Partnership an amount of approximately $83,000 for the previously unbilled water and sewer use charges allegedly incurred for this period of time. The Partnership has contested the City's actions in this matter.

9. Contingencies - Continues

As a consequence, on June 6, 1995, the City placed a lien on the Property for the unpaid water bill, sewer charges and accumulated interest thereon totaling $94,503. Management is currently attempting to settle this matter with the City. A liability in the amount of approximately $42,785 has been accrued in the accompanying financial statements for 1999 and 1998 and it has been included with accrued expenses other. Management believes, based in part upon the opinion of legal counsel, that the Partnership may be able to settle this matter with the City for an amount approximating the liability recorded in the accompanying financial statements. The ultimate resolution of this matter cannot be determined at the present time. Nevertheless, due to uncertainties in the settlement process, it is at least reasonably possible that management's view of the outcome will change in the near term.

In September 1999, the Partnership filed lawsuits against Fleet Bank and Regency Savings Bank, its predecessor and current mortgagees, respectively. The Partnership alleges, among other things, that there are contractual inconsistencies between the mortgage note on the Property and the commitment letter issued by the lender, which could have a favorable impact to the Partnership. The lawsuit against Fleet Bank is presently staying pending settlement discussions. The lawsuit against Regency Savings Bank was dismissed and an appeal has subsequently been filed. The ultimate outcome of the lawsuits cannot be determined at the present time. Accordingly, no estimates can be made as to the time or the amount, if any, of recoveries to the Partnership.

 

  1. Involuntary conversion:

On February 28, 1999, the Partnership suffered a loss as a result of a fire, which damaged three rental units at the apartment complex. The loss consisted of both physical property damage and related costs and rent loss caused by an interruption to tenant occupancy while the Property was being restored. The Partnership

24

has estimated the aggregate costs to restore the Property to be $60,295. The Partnership plans to file a supplemental claim on this loss in the amount of $14,828. As a result of the fire, a loss of $24,020, has been reflected as a non-operating expense in the accompanying 1999 statement of operations. Any additional insurance proceeds received from the supplemental claim will be reflected in income when received.

Hampden Contractors, Inc., an affiliate of the General Partners, has acted as the general contractor for the property restoration. At December 31, 1999, the Partnership has a liability to the contractor in the amount of $20,157 for the remaining unpaid costs associated with this loss.

The fire repairs were substantially complete as of December 31, 1999 with the final certificate of occupancy issued on January 10, 2000.

The operations of the Partnership are subject to the administrative directives, rules and regulations of federal, state and local regulatory agencies, including, but not limited to, HUD. Such administrative directives, rules and regulations are subject to change by an act of Congress, or an administrative change mandated by HUD.
