Item 1. Business
Organization
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund II, L.P. ("HTCF II" or the "Partnership") is a
California limited partnership formed under the laws of the State of California
on January 19, 1990. The Partnership was formed to acquire limited partnership
interests in local limited partnerships ("Local Limited Partnerships") which own
multifamily apartment complexes that are eligible for low-income housing federal
income tax credits ("Low Income Housing Credits").
The general partner of the Partnership is WNC Financial Group, L.P. (the
"General Partner"). The general partners of WNC Financial Group, L.P. are WNC &
Associates, Inc. ("Associates") and Wilfred N. Cooper, Sr. The business of the
Partnership is conducted primarily through Associates as neither the General
Partner nor the Partnership has employees of its own.
On April 27, 1990, the Partnership commenced a public offering of 12,000 Units
of Limited Partnership Interests ("Units"), at a price of $1,000 per Unit. The
General Partner concluded the sale of Units on December 31, 1992. A total of
7,000 Units representing $7,000,000 had been sold. Holders of Units are referred
to herein as "Limited Partners."
Description of Business
The Partnership's principal business objective is to provide its Limited
Partners with Low Income Housing Credits. The Partnership's principal business
therefore consists of investing as a limited partner in Local Limited
Partnerships each of which will own and operate an apartment complex ("Apartment
Complex") which will qualify for the Low Income Housing Credit. In general,
under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code, an owner of low-income housing
can receive the Low Income Housing Credit to be used against Federal taxes
otherwise due in each year of a ten year period. In general, under Section 17058
of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, an owner of low-income housing can
receive the Low Income Housing Credit to be used against California taxes
otherwise due in each year of a four-year period. The Apartment Complex is
subject to a 15-year compliance period (the "Compliance Period").
In general, in order to avoid recapture of Low Income Housing Credits, the
Partnership does not expect that it will dispose of its interests in Local
Limited Partnerships ("Local Limited Partnership Interests") or approve the sale
by a Local Limited Partnership of any Apartment Complex prior to the end of the
applicable Compliance Period. Because of (i) the nature of the Apartment
Complexes, (ii) the difficulty of predicting the resale market for low-income
housing 15 or more year in the future, and (iii) the inability of the
Partnership to directly cause the sale of Apartment Complexes by the general
partners of the respective Local Limited Partnerships ("Local General
Partners"), but generally only to require such Local General Partners to use
their respective best efforts to find a purchaser for the Apartment Complexes,
it is not possible at this time to predict whether the liquidation of
substantially all of the Partnership's assets and the disposition of the
proceeds, if any, in accordance with the Partnership Agreement will be able to
be accomplished promptly at the end of the 15-year period. If a Local Limited
Partnership is unable to sell an Apartment Complex, it is anticipated that the
Local General Partner will either continue to operate such Apartment Complex or
take such other actions as the Local General Partner believes to be in the best
interest of the Local Limited Partnership. In addition, circumstances beyond the
control of the General Partner may occur during the Compliance Period which
would require the Partnership to approve the disposition of an Apartment Complex
prior to the end thereof.
2
As of December 31, 1996, HTCF II had invested in twenty seven Local Limited
Partnerships. Each of these Local Limited Partnerships own an Apartment Complex
that is eligible for the Low Income Housing Credit. All of the Local Limited
Partnerships also benefit from government programs promoting low or moderate
income housing.
The Partnership's investments in Local Limited Partnerships are subject to the
risks incident to the management and ownership of low income housing and to the
management and ownership of multifamily residential real estate. Some of these
risks are that the Low Income Housing Credit could be recaptured and neither the
Partnership's investments nor the Apartment Complexes owned by Local Limited
Partnerships will be readily marketable. Additionally, there can be no assurance
that the Partnership will be able to dispose of its interest in Local Limited
Partnerships at the end of the Compliance Period. The value of the Partnership's
investments will be subject to changes in national and local economic
conditions, including unemployment conditions, which could adversely impact
vacancy levels, rental payment defaults and operating expenses. This, in turn,
could substantially increase the risk of operating losses for the Apartment
Complexes and the Partnership. The Apartment Complexes could be subject to loss
through foreclosure. In addition, each Local Limited Partnership is subject to
risks relating to environmental hazards which might be uninsurable. Because the
Partnership's ability to control its operations will depend on these and other
factors beyond the control of the General Partner and the general partners of
the Local Limited Partnerships, there can be no assurance that Partnership
operations will be profitable or that the anticipated Low Income Housing Credits
will be available to Limited Partners.
As of December 31, 1996, all of the Apartment Complexes were completed and in
operation. The Apartment Complexes owned by the Local Limited Partnerships in
which HTCF II has invested were developed by the Local General Partners who
acquired the sites and applied for applicable mortgages and subsidies. HTCF II
became the principal limited partner in these Local Limited Partnerships
pursuant to arm's-length negotiations with Local General Partners. As a limited
partner, HTCF II liability for obligations of the Local Limited Partnership is
limited to its investment. The Local General Partner of the Local Limited
Partnership retains responsibility for maintaining, operating and managing the
Apartment Complex.
The following is a schedule of the status as of December 31, 1996, of the
Apartment Complexes owned by Local Limited Partnerships in which HTCF II is a
limited partner:

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operation
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overall, as reflected in its Statement of Cash Flows, the Partnership had a net
decrease in cash of approximately $30,200 for the period ended December 31,
1996. This decrease in cash represents cash provided by investing activities
consisting entirely of distributions from Local Limited Partnerships of
approximately $11,400, offset by operating activities of approximately $41,600.
Cash provided by operating activities consisted of interest income and payments
from affiliates. Cash used consisted primarily of payments for operating fees
and expenses. The major components of all these activities are discussed in
greater detail below.
Overall, as reflected in its Statement of Cash Flows, the Partnership had a net
increase in cash of approximately $740 for the period ended December 31, 1995.
This increase in cash was provided by investing activities consisting entirely
of distributions from Local Limited Partnerships of approximately $6,190 and
uses by operating activities of approximately $5,440. Cash provided by operating
activities consisted of interest income and payment of receivable from
affiliates. Cash used consisted primarily of payments for operating fees and
expenses. The major components of all these activities are discussed in greater
detail below.
The Partnership is indebted to an affiliate of the General Partner in the amount
of approximately $758,800. The component items of such indebtedness are as
follows: accrued management fees of approximately $758,200 and amounts net of
due from the affiliate of approximately $600.
As of March 31, 1997 and December 31, 1996, the Partnership has received
approximately $7,000,000 from the sale of the Limited Partnership Interests and
and applied the Net Proceeds thereof available for investment to the payment of
Acquisition Fees and Acquisition Expenses, the establishment of Reserves, the
payment of operating expenses and the acquisition of investments in Local
Limited Partnerships which own the Apartment Complexes.
Prior to sale of the Apartment Complexes, it is not expected that any of the
Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested or will invest
will generate cash sufficient to provide distributions to The Partnership of any
material amount. Distributions to the Partnership would first by used to meet
operating expenses of the Partnership, including the payment of the Asset
Management Fee to the General Partner. See Item 11 hereof. As a result, it is
not anticipated that the Partnership will provide distributions to the Limited
Partners prior to the same of the Apartment Complexes.
The Partnership's investments are not readily marketable and may be affected by
adverse general economic conditions which, in turn, could substantially increase
the risk of operating losses for the Apartment Complexes, the Local Limited
Partnerships and the Partnership. These problems may result from a number of
factors, many of which cannot be controlled by the General Partner.
Nevertheless, the General Partner anticipates that capital raised from the sale
of the Limited Partnership Interests is sufficient to fund the Partnership's
operations.
7
Upon completion of its public offering (in 1992) the Partnership established
working capital reserves of approximately 3.0% of the Limited Partners' capital
contributions. This amount is anticipated to be sufficient to satisfy general
working capital and administrative expense requirements of the Partnership
including payment of the asset management fee as well as expenses attendant to
the preparation of tax returns and reports to the limited partners and other
investor servicing obligations of the Partnership. Liquidity would, however, be
adversely affected by unanticipated or greater than anticipated operating costs.
To the extent that working capital reserves are insufficient to satisfy the cash
requirements of the Partnership, it is anticipated that additional funds would
be sought through bank loans or other institutional financing. The General
Partner may also apply any cash distributions received from the local limited
partnerships for such purposes or to replenish or increase working capital
reserves.
Under its partnership agreement, the Partnership does not have the ability to
assess its partners for additional capital contributions to provide capital if
needed by the Partnership or Local Limited Partnerships. Accordingly, if
circumstances arise that cause the Local Limited Partnerships to require capital
in addition to that contributed by the Partnership and any equity of the Local
General Partners, the only sources from which such capital needs will be able to
be satisfied (other than the limited reserves available at the Partnership
level) will be (i) third-party debt financing (which may not be available, if,
as expected, the Apartment Complexes owned by the Local Limited Partnerships are
already substantially leveraged), (ii) additional equity contributions or
advances of the Local General Partners, (iii) other equity sources (which could
adversely affect the Partnership's interest in tax credits, cash flow and/or
proceeds of sale or refinancing of the apartment complexes and result in adverse
tax consequences to the limited partners), or (iv) the sale or disposition of
the Apartment Complexes (which could have the same adverse effects as discussed
in (iii) above). There can be no assurance that funds from any of such sources
would be readily available in sufficient amounts to fund the capital requirement
of the Local Limited Partnerships in question. If such funds are not available,
the Local Limited Partnerships would risk foreclosure on their apartment
complexes if they were unable to renegotiate the terms of their first mortgages
and any other debt secured by the Apartment Complexes to the extent the capital
requirements of the Local Limited Partnerships relate to such debt.
Liquidity
HTCF II's primary source of funds was the proceeds of its public offering. Other
sources of liquidity include interest earned on cash balances and distributions
from Local Limited Partnerships. The Local Limited Partnerships are expected to
maintain working capital reserves independent of those maintained by the
Partnership to the extent that (i) the terms of mortgage debt encumbering the
Apartment Complexes or the terms of any government assistance program so
require, or (ii) the Local General Partner determines that such reserves are
necessary or advisable. Although reserves are to be maintained at both the
Partnership and Local Limited Partnership levels, if such reserves and other
available income, if any, are insufficient to cover the Partnership's or any
Local Limited Partnership's operating expenses and liabilities, it may be
necessary to accumulate additional funds from distributions received from Local
Limited Partnerships which would otherwise be available for distribution to the
Limited Partners, or to liquidate the Partnership's investment in one or more
Local Limited Partnerships.
8
Reserves of the Partnership and reserves of the Local Limited Partnership may be
increased or decreased from time to time by the General Partner or the Local
General Partner, as the case may be, in order to meet anticipated costs and
expenses. The amount of cash flow available for distribution and/or Sale or
Refinancing Proceeds, if any, which is available for distribution to the Limited
Partners may be affected accordingly.
Results of Operations
The Partnership was formed to provide various benefits to its Limited Partners
as discussed in Item 1. It is not expected that any of the Local Limited
Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested will generate cash flow
sufficient to provide for distributions to Limited Partners in any material
amount. The Partnership accounts for its investments in the Local Limited
Partnerships on the equity method, thereby adjusting its investment balance by
its proportionate share of the income or loss of the local limited partnerships.
Consistent with the Partnership's investment objectives, each Local Limited
Partnership is generating or is expected to generate Low Income Housing Credits
for a period of approximately ten years, commencing with completion of
construction or rehabilitation of its Apartment Complex(es) and is generating or
is expected to generate losses until sale of the Apartment Complex(es).
As reflected on its Statements of Operations, the Partnership had losses of
$792,492, $777,212, and $717,123, for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995,
and 1994, respectively. The component items of revenue and expense are discussed
below.
Revenue. Partnership revenues consisted entirely of interest earned on cash
deposits held in financial institutions (i) as Reserves, or (ii) pending
investment in Local Limited Partnerships. Interest revenue in future years will
be a function of prevailing interest rates and the amount of cash balances.
Expenses. The most significant component of operating expenses is expected to be
the Asset Management Fee. The Asset Management Fees is equal to 0.5% of Invested
asset in local Limited Partnerships: accordingly the amount to be incurred in
the future is a function of the level of such invested assets (i.e., the sum of
the Partnerships' capital contributions to the Local Limited Partnerships plus
the Partnership's share of the debts related to the Apartment Complexes owned by
such Local Limited Partnerships). The annual management fee incurred was
$144,903, $144,903, and $144,903 for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995,
and 1994, respectively.
Office expense consists of the Partnership's administrative expenses, such as
accounting and legal fees, bank charges and investor reporting expenses.
Equity in losses from Local Limited Partnerships. The Partnership's equity in
losses from Local Limited Partnerships is equal to 99% of the aggregate net loss
of the Local Limited Partnerships. After rent-up, the Local Limited Partnerships
have generated and are expected to continue generating losses during each year
of operations. This is so because, although rental income is generally expected
to exceed cash operating expenses, depreciation and amortization deductions
claimed by the Local Limited Partnerships are expected to exceed net rental
income.
The Partnership, as a Limited Partner in the Local Limited Partnerships in which
it has invested, is subject to the risks incident to the construction,
management, and ownership of improved real estate. The Partnership investments
are also subject to adverse general economic conditions, and accordingly, the
status of the national economy, including substantial unemployment and
concurrent inflation, could increase vacancy levels, rental payment defaults,
and operating expenses, which in turn, could substantially increase the risk of
operating losses for the Apartment Complexes.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT THEREON
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Partners
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund II, L.P.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund
II, L.P. (a California Limited Partnership) (the "Partnership") as of December
31, 1996 and 1995, and the related statements of operations, partners' equity
(deficit) and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994.
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 the
limited partnerships in which WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund II, L.P. is a limited
partner. These investments, as discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements,
are accounted for by the equity method. The investments in these limited
partnerships represented 91% and 90% of the total assets of WNC Housing Tax
Credit Fund II, L.P. at December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The financial
statements of the limited partnerships were audited by other auditors whose
reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the
amounts included for these limited partnerships, is based solely on the reports
of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. 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 WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund II, L.P. (A California
Limited Partnership) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and
1994 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

(A California Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For The Years Ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund II, L.P. (A California Limited Partnership) (the
"Partnership") was formed on January 19, 1990 under the laws of the State of
California. The Partnership was formed to invest primarily in other limited
partnerships which own and operate multifamily housing complexes that are
eligible for low income Low Income Housing Credits.
WNC Financial Group, L.P., a California partnership, is the general partner
("General Partner") of the Partnership. WNC & Associates, Inc. is the general
partner of WNC Financial Group, L.P. Other officers and key employees of WNC &
Associates, Inc. are limited partners.
The Partnership shall continue in full force and effect until December 31, 2045
unless terminated prior to that date pursuant to the partnership agreement or
law.
The Partnership Agreement authorized the sale of up to 12,000 units of Limited
Partnership Interest at $1,000 per Unit ("Units"). The offering of Units
concluded on December 31, 1992 at which time 7,000 Units, representing
subscriptions in the amount of $7,000,000, had been accepted. The General
Partner has a 1% interest in operating profits and losses of the Partnership.
The limited partners will be allocated the remaining 99% interest in proportion
to their respective investments.
After the limited partners have received proceeds from a sale or refinancing
equal to their capital contributions and their return on investment (as defined
in the Partnership Agreement) and the General Partner has received a
subordinated disposition fee (as described in Note 4), and any additional sale
or refinancing proceeds will be distributed 90% to the limited partners (in
proportion to their respective investments) and 10% to the General Partner.
The Partnership's investments in limited partnerships are subject to the risks
incident to the management and ownership of multifamily residential real estate,
and include the risks that neither the Partnership's investments nor the
apartment complexes owned by the limited partnerships will be readily
marketable. Additionally there can be no assurance that the Partnership will be
able to dispose of its interest in the limited partnerships. The value of the
Partnership's investments will be subject to changes in national and local
economic conditions, including unemployment conditions, which could adversely
impact vacancy levels, rental payment defaults and operating expenses. This, in
turn, could substantially increase the risk of operating losses for the
apartment complexes and the Partnership. The apartment complexes could be
subject to loss through foreclosure. In addition, each limited partnership is
subject to risks relating to environmental hazards which might be uninsurable.
Because the Partnership's ability to control its operations will depend on these
and other factors beyond the control of the General Partner and the general
partners of the limited partnerships, there can be no assurance that Partnership
operations will be profitable or that the anticipated Low Income Housing Credits
will be available to limited partners.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
Method of Accounting For Investments in Limited Partnerships
The Partnership accounts for its investments in limited partnerships using the
equity method of accounting, whereby the Partnership adjusts its investment
balance for its share of each limited partnership's results of operations and
for any distributions received. The accounting policies of the limited
partnerships are consistent with those of the Partnership. Costs incurred by the
Partnership in acquiring the investments in limited partnerships are capitalized
as part of the investment account and are amortized over 30 years (see Note 2).
Losses from operating partnerships allocated to the Partnership are not
recognized to the extent that the investment balance would be adjusted below
zero.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with remaining
maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Organization Costs
Organization costs of $12,760 were being amortized on the straight-line method
over sixty months. Such costs were fully amortized as of December 31, 1996 and
1995.
Offering Expenses
Offering expenses consist of underwriting commissions, legal fees, printing,
filing and recordation fees, and other costs incurred with selling limited
partnership interests in the Partnership. The General Partner is obligated to
pay all offering and organization costs in excess of 15% (including sales
commissions) of the total offering proceeds. Offering expenses are reflected as
a reduction of limited partners' capital. As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the
Partnership had incurred offering expenses and selling expenses of $1,036,840
which are reflected as a reduction of partners' equity.
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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Net Loss Per Limited Partner Unit
Net loss per limited partner unit was computed by dividing the limited partners'
share of net loss by the weighted number of limited partner units outstanding.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Partnership has acquired limited
partnership interests in twenty-seven limited partnerships which own and operate
apartment complexes consisting of 784 apartment units. The respective general
partners of the limited partnerships manage the day-to-day operations of the
limited partnerships. Significant limited partner business decisions, as
defined, require the approval of the Partnership. The Partnership, as a limited
partner, is generally entitled to 99% of the operating profits and losses of the
limited partnerships.
The Partnership's investment in limited partnerships as shown in the
accompanying balance sheets at December 31, 1996 and 1995 are approximately
$503,000 and $529,000, respectively, greater than the Partnership's equity as
shown in the limited partnerships' combined financial statements. This
difference is due primarily to acquisition and other costs related to the
acquisition of the limited partnerships which were capitalized to the
Partnership's investment account. Such costs are being amortized over 30 years
(see Note 4).
The following is a summary of the equity method activity of the investments in
limited partnerships for the years ended December 31:

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS, continued
During 1996, 1995 and 1994, certain limited partnerships incurred operating
losses and had working capital deficiencies. In the event these limited
partnerships incur significant operating losses in the future, additional
capital contributions by the Partnership may be required to sustain the
operations of such limited partnerships. If additional capital contributions are
not made when they are required, the Partnership's investment in certain of such
limited partnerships could be impaired.
NOTE 3 - RECEIVABLES FROM LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
Receivables from limited partnerships represented amounts due to the Partnership
for payments made in excess of required contributions, as defined. Such amounts
are non-interest bearing and due on demand. During 1996, it was determined by
management of the Partnership that such amounts would not be collected.
Accordingly, such amounts were written-off and are included in other operating
expenses on the accompanying 1996 statement of operations.
NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership has paid or is
obligated to the General Partner or its affiliates for the following items:
Selection fees equal to 9% of the gross proceeds from the sale of

rendered to the Partnership in connection with the acquisition of
limited partnerships. As of December 31, 1996 and 1995, selection fees
of $630,000 have been incurred and included in the Partnership's
investment in limited partnerships. Accumulated amortization amounted

respectively.
Reimbursement of costs incurred by an affiliate of the General Partner
in connection with the acquisition of limited partnerships. These
reimbursements have not exceeded 1.7% of the gross proceeds. As of
December 31, 1996 and 1995, the Partnership incurred acquisition costs
of $10,581 which have been included in limited partnership investment.
Accumulated amortization amounted to $2,444 and $2,092 as of December

limited partnerships, including the Partnership's allocable share of
the mortgages. Management fees of $144,903, $144,903 and $144,903 were
incurred for 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively, of which $35,000 and
$103,269 were paid in 1996 and 1995, respectively. No amounts were
paid in 1994.
A subordinated disposition fee in an amount equal to 1% of the sales
price of any property sold. Payment of this fee to the General Partner
is subordinated to the limited partners who receive a 6% preferred
