PART I

Item 1.                   Business.

General Development of Business and Narrative Description of Business

American Tax Credit Trust, a Delaware statutory business trust (the "Registrant"), was formed on February 4, 1993 to invest primarily in leveraged low-income multifamily residential complexes (the "Property" or "Properties") that qualified for the low-income housing tax credit (the "Low-income Housing Tax Credit") in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "IRC"), through the acquisition of limited partner equity interests (the "Local Partnership Interest" or "Local Partnership Interests") in partnerships (the "Local Partnership" or "Local Partnerships") that are the owners of the Properties. The Local Partnerships hold their respective Properties in fee. Registrant initially invested in ten such Local Partnerships. Registrant considers its activity to constitute a single industry segment.

Richman American Credit Corp. (the "Manager"), a Delaware corporation, was formed on April 5, 1993, under Chapter 1, Title 8 of the Delaware Code, to act as the Manager of Registrant. The majority owner of the Manager is Richard Paul Richman. The Manager is an affiliate of The Richman Group, Inc. ("Richman Group"), a Delaware corporation founded by Richard Paul Richman in 1988.

The Amendment No. 4 to the Registration Statement on Form S-11 was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on August 25, 1993 pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 under Registration Statement No. 33-58032 and was declared effective on August 26, 1993. Reference is made to the prospectus dated September 7, 1993, as supplemented by Supplement No. 1, Supplement No. 2, Supplement No. 3 and Supplement No. 4 dated September 7, 1993, November 16, 1993, November 23, 1994 and December 28, 1994, respectively, filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Prospectus"). Pursuant to Rule 12b-23 of the SEC's General Rules and Regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the description of Registrant's business set forth under the heading "Investment Objectives and Policies" at pages 30 through 48 of the Prospectus is hereby incorporated into this Annual Report by reference.

On September 13, 1993, Registrant commenced, through Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated ("Merrill Lynch") and PaineWebber Incorporated ("PaineWebber"), the offering of up to 150,000 units of beneficial ownership interest (the "Units") at $1,000 per Unit to investors (the "Beneficial Owners") in one to twenty series (each a "Series"). This filing is presented for Series I only and as used herein, the term Registrant refers to Series I of the Trust. On November 29, 1993, January 28, 1994 and May 25, 1994 the closings for 8,460, 4,909 and 5,285 Units, respectively, took place, amounting to aggregate Beneficial Owners' capital contributions of $18,654,000.

Registrant's primary objective, to provide Low-income Housing Tax Credits to the Beneficial Owners, has been completed. The relevant state tax credit agency allocated each of the Local Partnerships an amount of Low-income Housing Tax Credits, which are generally available for a ten year period from the year the Property is placed in service (the "Ten Year Credit Period"). The Ten Year Credit Period was fully exhausted with respect to all of the Properties as of December 31, 2006. The required holding period of each Property, in order to avoid Low-income Housing Tax Credit recapture, is fifteen years from the year in which the Low-income Housing Tax Credits commence on the last building of the Property (the "Compliance Period"). The Compliance Period for all of the Local Partnerships had expired as of December 31, 2010. In addition, certain of the Local Partnerships entered into agreements with the relevant state tax credit agencies whereby the Local Partnerships must maintain the low-income nature of the Properties for a period which exceeds the Compliance Period (in certain circumstances, up to 50 years from when the Property is placed in service, but commonly 30 years from the date any such Property is placed in service), regardless of a sale of the Properties by the Local Partnerships after the Compliance Period (the "Extended Use Provisions"). Note that the existence of Extended Use Provisions does not extend the Compliance Period of the respective Local Partnerships. However, such provisions may limit the number and availability of potential purchasers of the Properties. Accordingly, a sale of a Property may happen well after the expiration of the Compliance Period and/or may be significantly discounted.

Disposal of Local Partnership Interests

Registrant is in the process of disposing of its remaining Local Partnership Interests. As of June 20, 2016, Registrant owns three of the ten Local Partnership Interests initially acquired. In a prior year, Registrant served a demand on the general partners of the Local Partnerships (the "Local General Partners") to commence a sale process to dispose of the Properties. In the event a sale cannot be consummated, it is the Manager's intention to sell or assign Registrant's remaining Local Partnership Interests. It is not possible to ascertain the amount, if any, that Registrant will receive with respect to each specific Property from such sales or assignments. Registrant intends to dissolve after the final disposition of its remaining Local Partnership Interests; there can be no assurance as to when Registrant will dispose of its remaining Local Partnership Interests.

Item 1.                   Business (Continued).

Financial Information About Industry Segments

Registrant is engaged solely in the business of owning a Local Partnership Interest in each of the Local Partnerships. A presentation of information regarding industry segments is not applicable and would not be material to an understanding of Registrant's business taken as a whole. See Item 8 below - Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

Competition

Pursuant to Rule 12b-23 of the SEC's General Rules and Regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act, the description of Registrant's competition, general risks, tax risks and partnership risks set forth under the heading "Risk Factors" at pages 11 through 21 of the Prospectus is hereby incorporated into this Annual Report by reference.

Employees of Registrant

Registrant employs no personnel and incurs no payroll costs. All management activities of Registrant are conducted by the Manager. Affiliates of the Manager employ individuals who perform the management activities of Registrant. These entities also perform similar services for other affiliates of the Manager.

Regulation

The following is a brief summary of certain regulations applicable to Registrant and is not, nor should it be considered, a full summary of the law or all related issues. Other than as set forth above and below, Registrant is not aware of any existing or probable federal, state or local governmental regulations, or any recent changes to such governmental regulations, which would have an effect on Registrant's business.

One of the three remaining Properties owned by the Local Partnerships has a government funded rental subsidy that affords the low-income tenants the ability to reside at the Property. During the period that a subsidy agreement between the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") and a Local Partnership is in existence, the Local Partnership Interest of such Local Partnership may not be sold, and the Property may not be transferred by the Local Partnership to another entity, without HUD's approval, which may be subject to various conditions. In particular, the transfer of title of the Property by the Local Partnership is expected to be required to be closed in escrow pending HUD approval. In addition, as a condition to such disposal, Registrant anticipates that HUD will require the Local Partnership to dedicate resources to maintenance in order to correct deficiencies in the physical condition of the Property. Correction of such deficiencies will probably require expenditures of significant amounts of funds, thus effectively reducing the amount of any net proceeds from the sale of the Property. There can be no assurance that the required governmental agency will approve any requested transfer, that such approval will be received in a timely manner or that other conditions will not be imposed for such approval. The failure to obtain or a delay in obtaining any required approval would have adverse consequences to the Beneficial Owners.

In the case of certain of the Local Partnerships, the local housing authority has the right, for a period of time, to find a purchaser for the Property prior to the Local General Partner beginning its own efforts to sell the Property. There can be no assurance that the local housing authorities will be successful in finding purchasers for such Properties, which may adversely impact the timing of Property sales.

Certain of the Local Partnerships are subject to restrictions on the amount of annual cash distributions to partners under the terms of such Local Partnerships' loan, regulatory or other agreements.

Registrant is not aware of any non-compliance by the Local Partnerships with respect to federal, state and local provisions regulating the discharge of material into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment, and is not aware of any condition that would have a material effect on the capital expenditures or competitive position of Registrant.

Item 1A.Risk Factors.

Registrant is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information required under this Item.

Item 1B.Unresolved Staff Comments.

Not applicable.

Item 2.Properties.

The executive offices of Registrant and the Manager are located at 340 Pemberwick Road, Greenwich, Connecticut 06831. Registrant does not own or lease any properties. Registrant pays no rent; all charges for leased space are borne by affiliates of the Manager.

Registrant initially acquired Local Partnership Interests in ten Local Partnerships. As discussed above in Item 1 - Business, the Compliance Period of all of the Local Partnerships had expired as of December 31, 2010 and, accordingly, Registrant is in the process of disposing of its remaining Local Partnership Interests. As of June 20, 2016, Registrant owns three of the ten Local Partnership Interests initially acquired. In a prior year, Registrant served a demand on the Local General Partners to commence a sale process to dispose of the Properties, which Registrant intends will result in a termination of Registrant's remaining Local Partnership Interests and ultimately the dissolution of Registrant.

In the event a sale of the remaining Properties cannot be consummated, it is the Manager's intention to sell or assign Registrant's remaining Local Partnership Interests. It is not possible to ascertain the amount, if any, that Registrant will receive with respect to each specific Property from such sales or assignments. In addition, certain of the Local Partnerships entered into agreements with Extended Use Provisions with the relevant state tax credit agencies whereby the Local Partnerships must maintain the low-income nature of the Properties for a period which exceeds the Compliance Period (in certain circumstances, up to 50 years from when the Property is placed in service, but commonly 30 years from the date any such Property is placed in service), regardless of a sale of the Properties by the Local Partnerships after the Compliance Period. While the Extended Use Provisions do not extend the Compliance Period of the respective Local Partnerships, such provisions may limit the number and availability of potential purchasers of the Properties.  Accordingly, a sale of a Property may happen well after the expiration of the Compliance Period and/or may be significantly discounted. There can be no assurance as to when the Local Partnerships will dispose of the Properties, when Registrant will dispose of the remaining Local Partnership Interests or the amount of proceeds which may be received in such dispositions. In addition to amounts that remain outstanding under the terms of the debt structure of the respective Local Partnerships, certain Local Partnerships have outstanding obligations to the Local General Partners and/or affiliates thereof for operating advances made over the years and for certain fees that were deferred.

The initial Local Partnership Interests were acquired by Registrant from 1993 to 1995. Registrant owns a 99% Local Partnership Interest in the remaining Local Partnerships.

One of the three remaining Local Partnerships receives rental subsidy payments under Section 8 of Title II of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 ("Section 8") (see descriptions of the subsidies below). The subsidy agreement is scheduled to expire in 2019. Since October 1997, HUD has issued a series of directives related to project based Section 8 contracts that define owners' notification responsibilities, advise owners of project based Section 8 properties of what their options are regarding the renewal of Section 8 contracts, provide guidance and procedures to owners, management agents, contract administrators and HUD staff concerning renewal of Section 8 contracts, provide policies and procedures on setting renewal rents and handling renewal rent adjustments and provide the requirements and procedures for opting-out of a Section 8 project based contract. Registrant cannot predict legislative initiatives and governmental budget negotiations, the outcome of which could result in a reduction in funds available for the various federal and state administered housing programs including the Section 8 program. Such changes could adversely affect the future net operating income before debt service and debt structure of the Local Partnership currently receiving such subsidy. Such Local Partnership's Section 8 contract is currently subject to renewal under applicable HUD guidelines.

PART II

Item 5.                   Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

Market Information and Holders

There is no established public trading market for the Units. Accordingly, accurate information as to the market value of a Unit at any given date is not available. The number of record holders of Units as of June 8, 2016 was approximately 696, holding an aggregate of 18,654 Units.

Registrant may provide an estimate of value to Unit holders from time to time in Registrant's reports to Beneficial Owners. Estimated values for limited partnership interests may also be provided by independent valuation services, whose estimated values are based on financial and other information available to them. The estimated values provided by the independent services and Registrant, which may differ, are not market values and Unit holders may not be able to sell their Units or realize either amount upon a sale of their Units. Unit holders may not realize such estimated values upon the liquidation of Registrant.

Distributions

Registrant owns a Local Partnership Interest in Local Partnerships that are the owners of Properties that are leveraged and receive government assistance in various forms of rental and debt service subsidies. The distribution of cash flow generated by the Local Partnerships may be restricted, as determined by each Local Partnership's financing and subsidy agreements.  Registrant was required to pay nonresident state withholding taxes of $36,141 on behalf of certain of the Beneficial Owners in April 2014 in connection with gains recognized by certain Local Partnerships for the year ended December 31, 2013. Registrant made a distribution to the Beneficial Owners in the amount of approximately $7 per Unit in July 2014 to Unit holders of record as of June 27, 2014. The $7 per Unit includes the nonresident state withholding taxes referred to above. There were no cash distributions to the Beneficial Owners during the year ended March 30, 2016. Any future distributions to the Beneficial Owners will be dependent on the amount received by Registrant in connection with the sale of its remaining Local Partnership Interests and/or the sale of the remaining Local Partnerships' Properties, among other factors. There can be no assurance as to the amount and timing of such distributions, if any.

Low-income Housing Tax Credits, which are subject to various limitations, may be used by the Beneficial Owners to offset federal income tax liabilities. The cumulative Low-income Housing Tax Credits per Unit for each of the three closings generated by Registrant and allocated to the Beneficial Owners, net of circumstances which have given rise to recapture, are as follows:

First closing			Second closing			Third closing
November 29, 1993			January 28, 1994			May 25, 1994
	$	1,377.87		$	1,375.59		$	1,363.07

The Ten Year Credit Period with respect to all of the Properties was fully exhausted as of December 31, 2006 and the Compliance Periods of all of the Local Partnerships had expired as of December 31, 2010. In a prior year, Registrant served a demand on the Local General Partners to commence a sale process to dispose of the Properties. In the event a sale cannot be consummated, it is the Manager's intention to sell or assign Registrant's remaining Local Partnership Interests. It is not possible to ascertain the amount, if any, that Registrant will receive with respect to each specific Property from such sales or assignments.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

None.

Item 6.                   Selected Financial Data.

Registrant is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information required under this Item.

Item 7.                   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

As used herein, the term Registrant refers to Series I of American Tax Credit Trust, a Delaware statutory business trust. References to any right, obligation, action, asset or liability of Series I mean such right, obligation, action, asset or liability of Registrant in connection with Series I.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Registrant admitted beneficial owners (the "Beneficial Owners") in three closings with aggregate Beneficial Owners' capital contributions of $18,654,000. In connection with the offering of the sale of units (the "Units") of beneficial ownership, Registrant incurred organization and offering costs of approximately $2,331,000 and established a working capital reserve of approximately $1,287,000. The remaining net proceeds of approximately $15,036,000 (the "Net Proceeds") were available to be applied to the acquisition of limited partner interests (the "Local Partnership Interest" or "Local Partnership Interests") in partnerships (the "Local Partnership" or "Local Partnerships") which own low-income multifamily residential complexes (the "Property" or "Properties") that qualified for the low-income housing tax credit (the "Low-income Housing Tax Credit") in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "IRC"). The Net Proceeds were utilized in acquiring a Local Partnership Interest in ten Local Partnerships.

As of March 30, 2016, Registrant has cash and cash equivalents and investment in Pemberwick Fund, a short duration bond fund ("Pemberwick") totaling $355,002, which is available for operating expenses of Registrant and circumstances which may arise in connection with the Local Partnerships. Future sources of Registrant funds are expected to be primarily from interest earned on working capital and limited cash distributions from Local Partnerships. In addition, although it is not possible to ascertain the amount, if any, that Registrant will receive with respect to each specific Local Partnership, Registrant may be entitled to sales proceeds of certain Local Partnerships' Properties and may receive proceeds in the event of a sale of its remaining Local Partnership Interests.

During the year ended March 30, 2016, Registrant received cash from interest revenue, redemptions from Pemberwick, distributions from Local Partnerships and proceeds from the disposal of certain Local Partnership Interests (see discussion below under Local Partnership Matters), and utilized cash for operating expenses and investments in Pemberwick. Cash and cash equivalents and investment in Pemberwick decreased, in the aggregate, by approximately $28,000 during the year ended March 30, 2016, (which includes an unrealized loss on investment in Pemberwick of approximately $1,000).

During the year ended March 30, 2016, the investment in local partnerships was reduced to zero as a result of equity in loss of investment in local partnerships of $116,987, representing Registrant's allocation of loss under applicable guidelines, and the write-off of the remaining investment balance in St. John Housing Associates, L.P. ("St. John Housing") of $278,795 upon Registrant's assignment of its Local Partnership Interest (see discussion below herein Item 7 under Results of Operations and Local Partnership Matters).  Payable to manager and affiliates in the accompanying balance sheet as of March 30, 2016 represents deferred management fees.

Results of Operations

Registrant's operating results are dependent, in part, upon the operating results of the Local Partnerships and are impacted by the Local Partnerships' policies. In addition, the operating results herein are not necessarily the same for tax reporting. Registrant accounts for its investment in local partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the investment is carried at cost and is adjusted for Registrant's share of each Local Partnership's results of operations and by cash distributions received. In the event the operations of a Local Partnership result in a loss, equity in loss of each investment in Local Partnership allocated to Registrant is recognized to the extent of Registrant's investment balance in each Local Partnership. Equity in loss in excess of Registrant's investment balance in a Local Partnership is allocated to other partners' capital in any such Local Partnership. However, the combined statements of operations of the Local Partnerships reflected in Note 5 to Registrant's financial statements include the operating results of all Local Partnerships in which Registrant owned an interest during the periods, irrespective of Registrant's investment balances (see discussion above in Item 2 - Properties). As a result of cumulative equity losses and distributions and the sale of certain Local Partnerships' Properties and/or Registrant's Local Partnership Interests, Registrant's investment in local partnerships reached a zero balance during the year ended March 30, 2016.

Cumulative losses and cash distributions in excess of investment in local partnerships may result from a variety of circumstances, including a Local Partnership's accounting policies, subsidy structure, debt structure and operating deficits, among other things. Accordingly, cumulative losses and cash distributions in excess of the investment are not necessarily indicative of adverse operating results of a Local Partnership.

Item 7.Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued).

Registrant's operations for the years ended March 30, 2016 and 2015 resulted in net losses of $541,227 and $2,233,475, respectively. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in equity in loss of investment in local partnerships of approximately $1,945,000, which is mainly the result of a $2,200,000 adjustment to the carrying value of St. John Housing in fiscal 2015, the Local Partnership in which Registrant had an investment balance as of March 30, 2015, partially offset by an increase in equity in loss of investment in local partnerships resulting from the operating activity of St. John Housing of approximately $255,000, all partially offset by loss on sale of limited partner interests/local partnership properties of approximately $272,000 in fiscal 2016 (see discussion below herein Item 7 under Local Partnership Matters). Other comprehensive loss for the year ended March 30, 2016 resulted from an unrealized loss on investment in Pemberwick of $810.

The remaining Local Partnerships' net loss of approximately $245,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015 includes depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $973,000 and interest on non-mandatory debt of approximately $249,000, and does not include principal payments on permanent mortgages of approximately $302,000. The Local Partnerships' net income of approximately $57,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 includes depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $823,000 and interest on non-mandatory debt of approximately $235,000, and does not include principal payments on permanent mortgages of approximately $451,000. The results of operations of the Local Partnerships for the year ended December 31, 2015 are not indicative of the results that may be expected in future periods.

Local Partnership Matters

Registrant's primary objective, to provide Low-income Housing Tax Credits to its Beneficial Owners, has been completed. The relevant state tax credit agency allocated each of the Local Partnerships an amount of Low-income Housing Tax Credits, which are generally available for a ten year period from the year the Property is placed in service (the "Ten Year Credit Period"). The Ten Year Credit Period was fully exhausted with respect to all of the Properties as of December 31, 2006. The required holding period of each Property, in order to avoid Low-income Housing Tax Credit recapture, is fifteen years from the year in which the Low-income Housing Tax Credits commence on the last building of the Property (the "Compliance Period"). The Compliance Period of all of the Local Partnerships had expired as of December 31, 2010. In addition, certain of the Local Partnerships entered into agreements with the relevant state tax credit agencies whereby the Local Partnerships must maintain the low-income nature of the Properties for a period which exceeds the Compliance Period (in certain circumstances, up to 50 years from when the Property is placed in service, but commonly 30 years from the date any such Property is placed in service), regardless of a sale of the Properties by the Local Partnerships after the Compliance Period (the "Extended Use Provisions").  Although the Extended Use Provisions do not extend the Compliance Period of the respective Local Partnerships, such provisions may limit the number and availability of potential purchasers of the Properties. Accordingly, a sale of a Property may happen well after the expiration of the Compliance Period and/or may be significantly discounted.  Registrant is in the process of disposing of its remaining Local Partnership Interests. As of June 20, 2016, Registrant owns three of the ten Local Partnership Interests initially acquired. In a prior year, Registrant served a demand on the general partners of the Local Partnerships (the "Local General Partners") to commence a sale process to dispose of the Properties. In the event a sale cannot be consummated, it is the Manager's intention to sell or assign Registrant's remaining Local Partnership Interests. It is not possible to ascertain the amount, if any, that Registrant will receive with respect to each specific Property from such sales or assignments. Registrant intends to dissolve after the final disposition of its remaining Local Partnership Interests; there can be no assurance as to when Registrant will dispose of its remaining Local Partnership Interests.

The remaining Properties are principally comprised of subsidized and leveraged low-income multifamily residential complexes located in New York, Florida and Michigan. One of the three remaining Local Partnerships receives rental subsidy payments under Section 8 of Title II of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 ("Section 8"). The subsidy agreement is scheduled to expire in 2019. Since October 1997, the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") has issued a series of directives related to project based Section 8 contracts that define owners' notification responsibilities, advise owners of project based Section 8 properties of what their options are regarding the renewal of Section 8 contracts, provide guidance and procedures to owners, management agents, contract administrators and HUD staff concerning renewal of Section 8 contracts, provide policies and procedures on setting renewal rents and handling renewal rent adjustments and provide the requirements and procedures for opting-out of a Section 8 project based contract. Registrant cannot predict legislative initiatives and governmental budget negotiations, the outcome of which could result in a reduction in funds available for the various federal and state administered housing programs including the Section 8 program. Such changes could adversely affect the future net operating income before debt service ("NOI") and debt structure of the Local Partnership currently receiving such subsidy. Such Local Partnership's Section 8 contract is currently subject to renewal under applicable HUD guidelines.

Item 7.Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Continued).

The Local Partnerships have various financing structures which include (i) required debt service payments ("Mandatory Debt Service") and (ii) debt service payments which are payable only from available cash flow subject to the terms and conditions of the notes, which may be subject to specific laws, regulations and agreements with appropriate federal and state agencies ("Non-Mandatory Debt Service or Interest"). Registrant has no legal obligation to fund any operating deficits of the Local Partnerships.

During the year ended March 30, 2016, Registrant sold its Local Partnership Interest in Ledge/McLaren Limited Partnership ("Ledge/McLaren") to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of Ledge/McLaren; Registrant received $2,250 in connection with the sale. Such amount is included in gain (loss) on sale of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the year ended March 30, 2016.

During the year ended March 30, 2016, Registrant sold its Local Partnership Interest in SB-92 Limited Partnership ("SB-92") to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of SB-92; Registrant received $5,000 in connection with the sale.  Such amount is included in gain (loss) on sale of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the year ended March 30, 2016.

During the year ended March 30, 2016, Registrant assigned its Local Partnership Interest in St. John Housing to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of St. John Housing; there were no proceeds in connection with the assignment. After accounting for its share of cumulative income, losses and distributions, Registrant recognized a loss of $278,795 in connection with the assignment as a write-off of its remaining investment balance. Such amount is included in gain (loss) on sale of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the year ended March 30, 2016.

Inflation

Inflation is not expected to have a material adverse impact on Registrant's operations.

Contractual Obligations

Registrant is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information required under this Item.

Off - Balance Sheet Arrangements

Registrant does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on Registrant's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to the Beneficial Owners.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), which requires Registrant to make certain estimates and assumptions. A summary of significant accounting policies is provided in Note 1 to the accompanying financial statements. The following section is a summary of certain aspects of those accounting policies that may require subjective or complex judgments and are most important to the portrayal of Registrant's financial condition and results of operations.  Registrant believes that there is a low probability that the use of different estimates or assumptions in making these judgments would result in materially different amounts being reported in the accompanying financial statements.

· Registrant accounts for its investment in local partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting.

· Registrant does not consolidate the accounts and activities of the Local Partnerships, which are considered Variable Interest Entities as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 810; Subtopic 10, because Registrant is not considered the primary beneficiary. Registrant's balance in investment in local partnerships represents the maximum exposure to loss in connection with such investments. Registrant's exposure to loss on the Local Partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying Properties as well as the financial strength of the Local General Partners. In addition, the Local Partnerships' partnership agreements grant the Local General Partners the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the Local Partnerships' economic success. As a result of cumulative equity losses and distributions and the sale of certain Local Partnerships' Properties and/or Registrant's Local Partnership Interests, Registrant's investment in local partnerships reached a zero balance during the year ended March 30, 2016.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Manager and Beneficial Owners

American Tax Credit Trust, a Delaware statutory business trust Series I

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of American Tax Credit Trust, a Delaware statutory business trust Series I (the "Trust") as of March 30, 2016 and 2015, and the related statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in owners' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. The Trust's management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits 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 Trust'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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of American Tax Credit Trust, a Delaware statutory business trust Series I as of March 30, 2016 and 2015 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

AMERICAN TAX CREDIT TRUST, a Delaware statutory business trust Series I

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 30, 2016 AND 2015

1. Organization, Purpose and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

American Tax Credit Trust, a Delaware statutory business trust Series I (the "Trust") was formed on February 4, 1993 under Chapter 38 of Title 12 of the Delaware Code. There was no operating activity until admission of the investors (the "Beneficial Owners") on November 29, 1993. The Trust was formed to invest primarily in leveraged low-income multifamily residential complexes (the "Property" or "Properties") that qualified for the low-income housing tax credit (the "Low-income Housing Tax Credit") in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "IRC"), through the acquisition of limited partner equity interests (the "Local Partnership Interest" or "Local Partnership Interests") in partnerships (the "Local Partnership" or "Local Partnerships") that are the owners of the Properties.  Such interests were acquired from 1993 to 1995. Richman American Credit Corp. (the "Manager") was formed on April 5, 1993 to act as the Manager of the Trust.

On September 13, 1993, the Trust commenced the offering for sale of units of beneficial ownership (the "Units") to Beneficial Owners in one to twenty series ("Series I through Series XX"; each a "Series"). These notes and the accompanying financial statements are presented for Series I only.

Basis of Accounting and Fiscal Year

The Trust's records are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting for both financial reporting and tax purposes. For financial reporting purposes, the Trust's fiscal year ends March 30 and its quarterly periods end June 29, September 29 and December 30. The Local Partnerships have a calendar year for financial reporting purposes.  The Trust and the Local Partnerships each have a calendar year for income tax purposes.

Investment in Local Partnerships

The Trust accounts for its investment in local partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting, under which the investment is carried at cost and is adjusted for the Trust's share of each Local Partnership's results of operations and by cash distributions received. Equity in loss of each investment in Local Partnership allocated to the Trust is recognized to the extent of the Trust's investment balance in each Local Partnership.  Equity in loss in excess of the Trust's investment balance in a Local Partnership is allocated to other partners' capital in any such Local Partnership. Previously unrecognized equity in loss of any Local Partnership is recognized in the fiscal year in which equity in income is earned by such Local Partnership or additional investment is made by the Trust. Distributions received subsequent to the elimination of an investment balance for any such investment in a Local Partnership are recorded as other income from local partnerships. As a result of cumulative equity losses and distributions and the sale of certain Local Partnerships' Properties and/or the Partnership's Local Partnership Interests, the Partnership's investment in local partnerships reached a zero balance during the year ended March 30, 2016.

The Trust assessed the carrying value (the "Carrying Value") of its investment in local partnerships at least annually in the fourth quarter of its fiscal year or whenever there were indications that a permanent impairment may have occurred. If the Carrying Value of an investment in a Local Partnership exceeded the estimated value derived by management, the Trust reduced its investment in any such Local Partnership (unless the impairment was considered to be temporary) and included such reduction in equity in income (loss) of investment in local partnerships. Impairment was measured by comparing the investment carrying amount to the estimated residual value of the investment.

The Trust does not consolidate the accounts and activities of the Local Partnerships, which are considered Variable Interest Entities as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 810; Subtopic 10, because the Trust is not considered the primary beneficiary. The Trust's balance in investment in local partnerships represents the maximum exposure to loss in connection with such investments. The Trust's exposure to loss on the Local Partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying Properties as well as the financial strength of the general partners of the Local Partnerships (the "Local General Partners"). In addition, the Local Partnerships' partnership agreements grant the Local General Partners the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the Local Partnerships' economic success. As described above, the Partnership's investment in local partnerships has reached a zero balance.

19

AMERICAN TAX CREDIT TRUST,a Delaware statutory business trust Series I

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED

MARCH 30, 2016 AND 2015

1. Organization, Purpose and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Advances and additional capital contributions (collectively the "Advances") that are not required under the terms of the Local Partnerships' partnership agreements but which are made to the Local Partnerships are recorded as investment in local partnerships. Certain Advances are considered by the Trust to be voluntary loans to the respective Local Partnerships and the Trust may be reimbursed at a future date to the extent such Local Partnerships generate distributable cash flow or receive proceeds from sale or refinancing.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Trust considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value.

Fair Value Measurements

ASC Topic 820 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability and establishes the following fair value hierarchy:

· Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Partnership has the ability to access;

· Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals; and

· Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that are typically based on an entity's own assumptions as there is little, if any, related market activity.

For instances in which the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement will fall within the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Investment in Pemberwick Fund

The Trust carries its investment in Pemberwick Fund ("Pemberwick"), an investment grade institutional short duration bond fund, at estimated fair value. Realized gains (losses) are included in (offset against) interest revenue. Investment in Pemberwick is classified as available-for-sale and unrealized gains (losses) are included as items of comprehensive income (loss) and are reported as a separate component of owners' equity (deficit).

Income Taxes

The Trust is a pass-through entity for income tax purposes and, as such, is not subject to income taxes. Rather, all items of taxable income and deductions are passed through to and are reported by its owners on their respective income tax returns. The Trust's federal tax status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a trust.  Accordingly, the Trust is not required to take any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity. The Trust is required to file and does file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") and other taxing authorities. Income tax returns filed by the Trust are subject to examination by the IRS for a period of three years. While no Trust income tax returns are currently being examined by the IRS, tax years subsequent to 2011 remain subject to examination. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes and the Trust has no other tax positions which must be considered for disclosure. In accordance with ASC Topic 740; Subtopic 10, the Trust has included in Note 7 disclosures related to differences in the financial and tax bases of accounting.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of 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.

MARCH 30, 2016 AND 2015

2. Capital Contributions and Distributions

On September 13, 1993, the Trust commenced the offering of Units through Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and PaineWebber Incorporated (the "Selling Agents"). On November 29, 1993, January 28, 1994 and May 25, 1994, under the terms of the Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement of Trust of the Trust (the "Trust Agreement"), the Manager admitted Beneficial Owners to the Trust in three closings. At these closings, subscriptions for a total of 18,654 Units representing $18,654,000 in Beneficial Owners' capital contributions were accepted. In connection with the offering of Units, the Trust incurred organization and offering costs of $2,330,819, of which $75,000 was capitalized as organization costs and $2,255,819 was charged to the Beneficial Owners' equity as syndication costs. The Manager contributed $100 to the Trust.

Net loss was allocated 99% to the Beneficial Owners and 1% to the Manager in accordance with the Trust Agreement until such time as the Beneficial Owners' capital reached zero as a result of loss allocations, after which all losses have been allocated to the Manager. During the year ended March 30, 2015, the Trust paid nonresident state withholding taxes of $36,141 on behalf of certain of the Beneficial Owners in connection with gains recognized by certain Local Partnerships for the year ended December 31, 2013. The Trust also made a distribution to the Beneficial Owners in the amount of approximately $7 per Unit (an additional $94,364). The $7 per Unit includes the nonresident state withholding taxes referred to above; the pro-rata distribution to the Manager was $1,319.

3. Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of March 30, 2016, the Trust has cash and cash equivalents of $9,514, all of which is held in accounts at two financial institutions in which such accounts are insured up to $250,000 at each institution by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"). The entire amount is FDIC insured as of March 30, 2016.

4. Investment in Pemberwick Fund

The Trust carries its investment in Pemberwick, an investment grade institutional short duration bond fund, at estimated fair value. Pemberwick was organized in February 2010 as a non-diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, that seeks maximum current income consistent with liquidity and stability of principal. In selecting a portfolio of securities for Pemberwick, the investment advisor of Pemberwick (the "Advisor") will select investments so that 95% of Pemberwick's assets will be rated "A-" or better by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization ("NRSRO") such as Moody's Investor Services, Inc. ("Moody's") and/or by Standard & Poor's Financial Services, LLC ("S&P") (or if commercial paper rated in the highest category) or, if a rating is not available, deemed to be of comparable quality by the Advisor, or securities issued by banking institutions operating in the United States and having assets in excess of $200 billion.

The weighted average duration of Pemberwick's assets is approximately 1.57 years as of March 30, 2016. Redemptions from Pemberwick are immediately liquid and unrestricted. Pemberwick's net asset value ("NAV") is $10.04 and $10.06 per share as of March 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Trust's investment in Pemberwick as of March 30, 2016 and 2015 is $345,488 and $363,917, respectively. An unrealized gain of $1,236 as of March 30, 2016 is reflected as accumulated other comprehensive income in the accompanying balance sheet as of March 30, 2016. The Trust has earned $56,667 of interest revenue from the date of its initial investment in Pemberwick through March 30, 2016. The fair value of the Trust's investment in Pemberwick is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy of the guidance on Fair Value Measurements (see Note 1). Pemberwick's NAV was $10.04 as of May 31, 2016.

The Advisor is an affiliate of the Manager. For its services, the Advisor is entitled to receive an annual advisory fee of 0.50% of the average daily net assets of Pemberwick. The Advisor may, in its discretion, voluntarily waive its fees or reimburse certain Pemberwick expenses; however, the Advisor is not required to do so. The Advisor has waived 70% of its fee earned since Pemberwick's inception and earned $524 and $768 in connection with the Trust's investment in Pemberwick for the years ended March 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, enough to cover its direct costs. The Advisor's asset management affiliate, Richman Asset Management, Inc. ("RAM") has agreed to reduce its management fees (see Note 6) payable by the Trust to the extent any fee of the Advisor payable by Pemberwick would be duplicative of any profit that RAM would receive from the Trust.

5. Investment in Local Partnerships

The Trust initially acquired a Local Partnership Interest in ten Local Partnerships. As of March 30, 2016, the Trust owns a 99% Local Partnership Interest in the following three Local Partnerships:

1.	ACP Housing Associates, L.P. ("ACP Housing");
2.	Creative Choice Homes VII, Ltd. ("Creative Choice"); and
3.	Vision Limited Dividend Housing Association Limited Partnership ("Vision").

In connection with the initial purchase of ten Local Partnership Interests, under the terms of the partnership agreement of each Local Partnership, as of March 30, 2016 the Trust is committed to make capital contributions in the aggregate of $14,837,956, which includes Advances to certain Local Partnerships and all of which has been paid.

The remaining Properties are principally comprised of subsidized and leveraged low-income multifamily residential complexes located in New York ("ACP Housing"), Florida (Creative Choice) and Michigan (Vision). The required holding period of each Property, in order to avoid Low-income Housing Tax Credit recapture, is fifteen years from the year in which the Low-income Housing Tax Credits commence on the last building of the Property (the "Compliance Period"). The Compliance Periods of all the Local Partnerships expired in a prior year. The rents of the Properties, of which Creative Choice receives project based rental subsidy payments pursuant to a subsidy agreement, are subject to specific laws, regulations and agreements with federal and state agencies. The subsidy is scheduled to expire in 2019. The Trust cannot predict legislative initiatives and governmental budget negotiations, the outcome of which could result in a reduction in funds available for the various federal and state administered housing programs. Such changes could adversely affect the future net operating income and debt structure of Creative Choice. As of December 31, 2015, the remaining Local Partnerships have outstanding mortgage loans payable totaling approximately $10,061,000 and accrued interest payable on such loans totaling approximately $1,982,000, which are secured by security interests and liens common to mortgage loans on the remaining Local Partnerships' real property and other assets.

During the year ended March 30, 2016, the Trust sold its Local Partnership Interest in Ledge/McLaren Limited Partnership ("Ledge/McLaren") to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of Ledge/McLaren; the Trust received $2,250 in connection with the sale. Such amount is included in gain (loss) on sale of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) of the Trust for the year ended March 30, 2016. After accounting for its share of cumulative income, losses and distributions, the Trust's investment in Ledge/McLaren had reached a zero balance prior to the sale.

During the year ended March 30, 2016, the Trust sold its Local Partnership Interest in SB-92 Limited Partnership ("SB-92") to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of SB-92; the Trust received $5,000 in connection with the sale.  Such amount is included in gain (loss) on sale of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) of the Trust for the year ended March 30, 2016. After accounting for its share of cumulative income, losses and distributions, the Trust's investment in SB-92 had reached a zero balance prior to the sale.

During the year ended March 30, 2016, the Trust assigned its Local Partnership Interest in St. John Housing Associates, L.P. ("St. John Housing") to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of St. John Housing; there were no proceeds in connection with the assignment. After accounting for its share of cumulative income, losses and distributions, the Trust recognized a loss of $278,795 in connection with the assignment as a write-off of its remaining investment balance. Such amount is included in gain (loss) on sale of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) of the Trust for the year ended March 30, 2016.

Such amount is included in equity in loss of investment in local partnerships in the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) of the Trust for the year ended March 30, 2015.

8. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value amounts have been determined using available market information, assumptions, estimates and valuation methodologies.

Cash and cash equivalents

The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Investment in Pemberwick Fund - a short duration bond fund

The estimated fair value of Pemberwick is based on current market quotes received from active markets. Pemberwick's NAV is calculated and published daily (see Note 4).

Investment in local partnerships

The Trust assessed the carrying value of its investment in local partnerships at least annually in the fourth quarter of its fiscal year or whenever there were indications that a permanent impairment may have occurred (see Note 1). These valuations required significant judgments, which included assumptions regarding capitalization rates, occupancy rates, projected operating results, availability of financing, exit plan, extended use provisions of the Properties under the terms of the applicable financing agreements, comparable sales and other factors deemed necessary by the Trust. The investment in local partnerships, carried at zero as of March 30, 2016, approximates fair value. While the investment in local partnerships as of March 30, 2015 is carried at $395,782, its estimated fair value as of such date is $435,000. The fair value of investment in local partnerships was determined using Level 3 inputs (see Note 1) as of March 30, 2016 and 2015 and is presented here for disclosure purposes only.

Item 9.                   Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

None.

Item 9A.                Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Registrant in reports that Registrant files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and timely reported as provided in SEC rules and forms. Registrant periodically reviews the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, including compliance with various laws and regulations that apply to its operations. Registrant makes modifications to improve the design and effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, and may take other corrective action, if its reviews identify a need for such modifications or actions. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, Registrant recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Registrant has carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Manager, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the year ended March 30, 2016. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Manager concluded that Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 30, 2016.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Registrant is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Manager, Registrant conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting based on the framework set forth in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in 1992 and updated in 2013. Based on its evaluation, management has concluded that Registrant's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 30, 2016.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of Registrant's independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by Registrant's independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit Registrant to provide only management's report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in Registrant's internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 30, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Registrant's internal control over financial reporting.

Item 9B.                Other Information.

None.

Item 13.Certain Relationships and Related Transactions and Director Independence (Continued).

Corporate Governance

As discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report, Registrant does not have any directors, although as noted above Mr. Richman, Mr. Hussey and Mr. Krafnick serve on a committee that performs the functions of an audit committee on behalf of Registrant. Under NASDAQ Stock Market independence standards, Mr. Richman, Mr. Hussey and Mr. Krafnick would not be considered independent as they serve as director/officers of the Manager. Although Mr. Richman, Mr. Hussey and Mr. Krafnick are not independent under NASDAQ rules, Registrant believes that each exercises his judgment in the best interest of Registrant with respect to matters that would ordinarily be passed upon by an audit committee. Registrant is not a listed issuer whose securities are listed on a national securities exchange, or an inter-dealer quotation system which has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be independent, and Registrant is not required to have an audit committee which consists of independent directors and meets the other requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules promulgated thereunder.

Item 14.Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

Registrant's independent registered public accounting firm billed Registrant the following fees for professional services rendered for the years ended March 30, 2016 and 2015:

	2016		2015
Audit Fees	$	21,000	$	21,000
Audit-Related Fees		--		--
Tax Fees	$	6,250	$	7,250
All Other Fees		--		--

Audit fees consist of fees for the annual audit and review of Registrant's interim financial statements and review of documents filed with the SEC. Tax fees generally represent fees for annual tax return preparation. There were no other accounting fees incurred by Registrant in fiscal 2016 and 2015.

The Audit Committee has adopted a set of pre-approval policies and procedures under which, pursuant to the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, all audit and permitted non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm require pre-approval by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee approved all fiscal 2016 and 2015 principal accountant fees and services.

1. Organization, Purpose and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

1.       Organization, Purpose and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

American Tax Credit Trust, a Delaware statutory business trust Series I (the "Trust") was formed on February 4, 1993 under Chapter 38 of Title 12 of the Delaware Code. There was no operating activity until admission of the investors (the “Beneficial Owners”) on November 29, 1993. The Trust was formed to invest primarily in leveraged low-income multifamily residential complexes (the "Property" or "Properties") that qualified for the low-income housing tax credit (the "Low-income Housing Tax Credit") in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “IRC”), through the acquisition of limited partner equity interests (the “Local Partnership Interest” or “Local Partnership Interests”) in partnerships (the "Local Partnership" or "Local Partnerships") that are the owners of the Properties.  Such interests were acquired from 1993 to 1995. Richman American Credit Corp. (the "Manager") was formed on April 5, 1993 to act as the Manager of the Trust.

On September 13, 1993, the Trust commenced the offering for sale of units of beneficial ownership (the "Units") to Beneficial Owners in one to twenty series ("Series I through Series XX"; each a "Series"). These notes and the accompanying financial statements are presented for Series I only.

Basis of Accounting and Fiscal Year

The Trust’s records are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting for both financial reporting and tax purposes. For financial reporting purposes, the Trust's fiscal year ends March 30 and its quarterly periods end June 29, September 29 and December 30. The Local Partnerships have a calendar year for financial reporting purposes.  The Trust and the Local Partnerships each have a calendar year for income tax purposes.

Investment in Local Partnerships

The Trust accounts for its investment in local partnerships in accordance with the equity method of accounting, under which the investment is carried at cost and is adjusted for the Trust's share of each Local Partnership's results of operations and by cash distributions received. Equity in loss of each investment in Local Partnership allocated to the Trust is recognized to the extent of the Trust’s investment balance in each Local Partnership.  Equity in loss in excess of the Trust’s investment balance in a Local Partnership is allocated to other partners' capital in any such Local Partnership. Previously unrecognized equity in loss of any Local Partnership is recognized in the fiscal year in which equity in income is earned by such Local Partnership or additional investment is made by the Trust. Distributions received subsequent to the elimination of an investment balance for any such investment in a Local Partnership are recorded as other income from local partnerships. As a result of cumulative equity losses and distributions and the sale of certain Local Partnerships’ Properties and/or the Partnership’s Local Partnership Interests, the Partnership’s investment in local partnerships reached a zero balance during the year ended March 30, 2016.

The Trust assessed the carrying value (the “Carrying Value”) of its investment in local partnerships at least annually in the fourth quarter of its fiscal year or whenever there were indications that a permanent impairment may have occurred. If the Carrying Value of an investment in a Local Partnership exceeded the estimated value derived by management, the Trust reduced its investment in any such Local Partnership (unless the impairment was considered to be temporary) and included such reduction in equity in income (loss) of investment in local partnerships. Impairment was measured by comparing the investment carrying amount to the estimated residual value of the investment.

The Trust does not consolidate the accounts and activities of the Local Partnerships, which are considered Variable Interest Entities as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810; Subtopic 10, because the Trust is not considered the primary beneficiary. The Trust's balance in investment in local partnerships represents the maximum exposure to loss in connection with such investments. The Trust's exposure to loss on the Local Partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying Properties as well as the financial strength of the general partners of the Local Partnerships (the “Local General Partners”). In addition, the Local Partnerships’ partnership agreements grant the Local General Partners the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the Local Partnerships’ economic success. As described above, the Partnership’s investment in local partnerships has reached a zero balance.

Advances and additional capital contributions (collectively the “Advances”) that are not required under the terms of the Local Partnerships’ partnership agreements but which are made to the Local Partnerships are recorded as investment in local partnerships. Certain Advances are considered by the Trust to be voluntary loans to the respective Local Partnerships and the Trust may be reimbursed at a future date to the extent such Local Partnerships generate distributable cash flow or receive proceeds from sale or refinancing.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Trust considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value.

Fair Value Measurements

ASC Topic 820 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability and establishes the following fair value hierarchy:

·         Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Partnership has the ability to access;

·         Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals; and

·         Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions as there is little, if any, related market activity.

For instances in which the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement will fall within the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Investment in Pemberwick Fund

The Trust carries its investment in Pemberwick Fund (“Pemberwick”), an investment grade institutional short duration bond fund, at estimated fair value. Realized gains (losses) are included in (offset against) interest revenue. Investment in Pemberwick is classified as available-for-sale and unrealized gains (losses) are included as items of comprehensive income (loss) and are reported as a separate component of owners' equity (deficit).

Income Taxes

The Trust is a pass-through entity for income tax purposes and, as such, is not subject to income taxes. Rather, all items of taxable income and deductions are passed through to and are reported by its owners on their respective income tax returns. The Trust’s federal tax status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a trust.  Accordingly, the Trust is not required to take any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity. The Trust is required to file and does file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) and other taxing authorities. Income tax returns filed by the Trust are subject to examination by the IRS for a period of three years. While no Trust income tax returns are currently being examined by the IRS, tax years subsequent to 2011 remain subject to examination. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes and the Trust has no other tax positions which must be considered for disclosure. In accordance with ASC Topic 740; Subtopic 10, the Trust has included in Note 7 disclosures related to differences in the financial and tax bases of accounting.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of 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.

2.       Capital Contributions and Distributions

On September 13, 1993, the Trust commenced the offering of Units through Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and PaineWebber Incorporated (the “Selling Agents”). On November 29, 1993, January 28, 1994 and May 25, 1994, under the terms of the Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement of Trust of the Trust (the "Trust Agreement"), the Manager admitted Beneficial Owners to the Trust in three closings. At these closings, subscriptions for a total of 18,654 Units representing $18,654,000 in Beneficial Owners’ capital contributions were accepted. In connection with the offering of Units, the Trust incurred organization and offering costs of $2,330,819, of which $75,000 was capitalized as organization costs and $2,255,819 was charged to the Beneficial Owners' equity as syndication costs. The Manager contributed $100 to the Trust.

Net loss was allocated 99% to the Beneficial Owners and 1% to the Manager in accordance with the Trust Agreement until such time as the Beneficial Owners’ capital reached zero as a result of loss allocations, after which all losses have been allocated to the Manager. During the year ended March 30, 2015, the Trust paid nonresident state withholding taxes of $36,141 on behalf of certain of the Beneficial Owners in connection with gains recognized by certain Local Partnerships for the year ended December 31, 2013. The Trust also made a distribution to the Beneficial Owners in the amount of approximately $7 per Unit (an additional $94,364). The $7 per Unit includes the nonresident state withholding taxes referred to above; the pro-rata distribution to the Manager was $1,319.

4.       Investment in Pemberwick Fund

The Trust carries its investment in Pemberwick, an investment grade institutional short duration bond fund, at estimated fair value. Pemberwick was organized in February 2010 as a non-diversified open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, that seeks maximum current income consistent with liquidity and stability of principal. In selecting a portfolio of securities for Pemberwick, the investment advisor of Pemberwick (the “Advisor”) will select investments so that 95% of Pemberwick’s assets will be rated “A-” or better by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”) such as Moody’s Investor Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and/or by Standard & Poor’s Financial Services, LLC (“S&P”) (or if commercial paper rated in the highest category) or, if a rating is not available, deemed to be of comparable quality by the Advisor, or securities issued by banking institutions operating in the United States and having assets in excess of $200 billion.

The weighted average duration of Pemberwick’s assets is approximately 1.57 years as of March 30, 2016. Redemptions from Pemberwick are immediately liquid and unrestricted. Pemberwick’s net asset value (“NAV”) is $10.04 and $10.06 per share as of March 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The Trust’s investment in Pemberwick as of March 30, 2016 and 2015 is $345,488 and $363,917, respectively. An unrealized gain of $1,236 as of March 30, 2016 is reflected as accumulated other comprehensive income in the accompanying balance sheet as of March 30, 2016. The Trust has earned $56,667 of interest revenue from the date of its initial investment in Pemberwick through March 30, 2016. The fair value of the Trust’s investment in Pemberwick is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy of the guidance on Fair Value Measurements (see Note 1). Pemberwick’s NAV was $10.04 as of May 31, 2016.

The Advisor is an affiliate of the Manager. For its services, the Advisor is entitled to receive an annual advisory fee of 0.50% of the average daily net assets of Pemberwick. The Advisor may, in its discretion, voluntarily waive its fees or reimburse certain Pemberwick expenses; however, the Advisor is not required to do so. The Advisor has waived 70% of its fee earned since Pemberwick’s inception and earned $524 and $768 in connection with the Trust’s investment in Pemberwick for the years ended March 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, enough to cover its direct costs. The Advisor’s asset management affiliate, Richman Asset Management, Inc. (“RAM”) has agreed to reduce its management fees (see Note 6) payable by the Trust to the extent any fee of the Advisor payable by Pemberwick would be duplicative of any profit that RAM would receive from the Trust.

5.       Investment in Local Partnerships

The Trust initially acquired a Local Partnership Interest in ten Local Partnerships. As of March 30, 2016, the Trust owns a 99% Local Partnership Interest in the following three Local Partnerships:

1.	ACP Housing Associates, L.P. (“ACP Housing”);
2.	Creative Choice Homes VII, Ltd. (“Creative Choice”); and
3.	Vision Limited Dividend Housing Association Limited Partnership (“Vision”).

In connection with the initial purchase of ten Local Partnership Interests, under the terms of the partnership agreement of each Local Partnership, as of March 30, 2016 the Trust is committed to make capital contributions in the aggregate of $14,837,956, which includes Advances to certain Local Partnerships and all of which has been paid.

The remaining Properties are principally comprised of subsidized and leveraged low-income multifamily residential complexes located in New York (“ACP Housing”), Florida (Creative Choice) and Michigan (Vision). The required holding period of each Property, in order to avoid Low-income Housing Tax Credit recapture, is fifteen years from the year in which the Low-income Housing Tax Credits commence on the last building of the Property (the “Compliance Period”). The Compliance Periods of all the Local Partnerships expired in a prior year. The rents of the Properties, of which Creative Choice receives project based rental subsidy payments pursuant to a subsidy agreement, are subject to specific laws, regulations and agreements with federal and state agencies. The subsidy is scheduled to expire in 2019. The Trust cannot predict legislative initiatives and governmental budget negotiations, the outcome of which could result in a reduction in funds available for the various federal and state administered housing programs. Such changes could adversely affect the future net operating income and debt structure of Creative Choice. As of December 31, 2015, the remaining Local Partnerships have outstanding mortgage loans payable totaling approximately $10,061,000 and accrued interest payable on such loans totaling approximately $1,982,000, which are secured by security interests and liens common to mortgage loans on the remaining Local Partnerships' real property and other assets.

During the year ended March 30, 2016, the Trust sold its Local Partnership Interest in Ledge/McLaren Limited Partnership (“Ledge/McLaren”) to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of Ledge/McLaren; the Trust received $2,250 in connection with the sale. Such amount is included in gain (loss) on sale of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) of the Trust for the year ended March 30, 2016. After accounting for its share of cumulative income, losses and distributions, the Trust’s investment in Ledge/McLaren had reached a zero balance prior to the sale.

During the year ended March 30, 2016, the Trust sold its Local Partnership Interest in SB-92 Limited Partnership (“SB-92”) to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of SB-92; the Trust received $5,000 in connection with the sale.  Such amount is included in gain (loss) on sale of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) of the Trust for the year ended March 30, 2016. After accounting for its share of cumulative income, losses and distributions, the Trust’s investment in SB-92 had reached a zero balance prior to the sale.

During the year ended March 30, 2016, the Trust assigned its Local Partnership Interest in St. John Housing Associates, L.P. (“St. John Housing”) to an affiliate of the Local General Partner of St. John Housing; there were no proceeds in connection with the assignment. After accounting for its share of cumulative income, losses and distributions, the Trust recognized a loss of $278,795 in connection with the assignment as a write-off of its remaining investment balance. Such amount is included in gain (loss) on sale of limited partner interests/local partnership properties in the accompanying statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) of the Trust for the year ended March 30, 2016.

For the years ended March 30, 2016 and 2015, the investment in local partnerships activity consists of the following:

8.       Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The estimated fair value amounts have been determined using available market information, assumptions, estimates and valuation methodologies.

Cash and cash equivalents

The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Investment in Pemberwick Fund - a short duration bond fund

The estimated fair value of Pemberwick is based on current market quotes received from active markets. Pemberwick’s NAV is calculated and published daily (see Note 4).

Investment in local partnerships

The Trust assessed the carrying value of its investment in local partnerships at least annually in the fourth quarter of its fiscal year or whenever there were indications that a permanent impairment may have occurred (see Note 1). These valuations required significant judgments, which included assumptions regarding capitalization rates, occupancy rates, projected operating results, availability of financing, exit plan, extended use provisions of the Properties under the terms of the applicable financing agreements, comparable sales and other factors deemed necessary by the Trust. The investment in local partnerships, carried at zero as of March 30, 2016, approximates fair value. While the investment in local partnerships as of March 30, 2015 is carried at $395,782, its estimated fair value as of such date is $435,000. The fair value of investment in local partnerships was determined using Level 3 inputs (see Note 1) as of March 30, 2016 and 2015 and is presented here for disclosure purposes only.

ASC Topic 820 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability and establishes the following fair value hierarchy:

·         Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Partnership has the ability to access;

·         Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals; and

·         Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions as there is little, if any, related market activity.

For instances in which the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement will fall within the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Income Taxes

The Trust is a pass-through entity for income tax purposes and, as such, is not subject to income taxes. Rather, all items of taxable income and deductions are passed through to and are reported by its owners on their respective income tax returns. The Trust’s federal tax status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a trust.  Accordingly, the Trust is not required to take any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity. The Trust is required to file and does file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) and other taxing authorities. Income tax returns filed by the Trust are subject to examination by the IRS for a period of three years. While no Trust income tax returns are currently being examined by the IRS, tax years subsequent to 2011 remain subject to examination. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes and the Trust has no other tax positions which must be considered for disclosure. In accordance with ASC Topic 740; Subtopic 10, the Trust has included in Note 7 disclosures related to differences in the financial and tax bases of accounting.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of 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.
