NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LOCAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS

 

As of March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership owns Local Limited Partnership interests in 6 and 18 Local Limited Partnerships, respectively. As of March 31, 2012 and 2011, these Local Limited Partnerships each own one Housing Complex consisting of an aggregate of 244 and 505 apartment units, respectively. The respective Local General Partners of the Local Limited Partnerships manage the day to day operations of the entities. Significant Local Limited Partnership business decisions require approval from the Partnership. The Partnership, as a limited partner, is generally entitled to 99%, as specified in the Local Limited Partnership Agreements, of the operating profits and losses, taxable income and losses, and Low Income Housing Tax Credits of the Local Limited Partnerships.

 

The Partnership's investments in Local Limited Partnerships as shown in the balance sheets at March 31, 2012 and 2011 are approximately $2,444,000 and $4,129,000, respectively, greater than the Partnership's equity at the preceding December 31 as shown in the Local Limited Partnerships’ combined financial statements presented below. This difference is primarily due to unrecorded losses as discussed below, and acquisition, selection and other costs related to the acquisition of the investments which have been capitalized in the Partnership's investment account along with impairment losses recorded in the Partnership’s investment account.

 

At March 31, 2012 and 2011, the investment accounts in all of the Local Limited Partnerships have reached a zero balance. Consequently, all of the Partnerships, estimates of its share of losses for the years ended March 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, amounting to approximately $77,000, $235,000 and $385,000, respectively, have not been recognized. As of March 31, 2012, the aggregate share of net losses not recognized by the Partnership amounted to $2,626,000.

 

The financial information from the individual financial statements of the Local Limited Partnerships includes rental and interest subsidies. Rental subsidies are included in total revenues and interest subsidies are generally netted against interest expense.
