1988, as supplemented by Supplement No. 1 and Supplement No. 2 dated August 11,
1988 and September 20, 1988, respectively, filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3)
under the Securities Act of 1933.
PART I
Item 1. Business
Formation
American Tax Credit Properties L.P. ("Registrant"), a Delaware limited
partnership, was formed on February 12, 1988 to invest primarily in leveraged
4low-income multifamily residential complexes (the "Property" or "Properties")
that qualify for the low-income tax credit in accordance with Section 42 of the
Internal Revenue Code (the "Low-income Tax Credit"), through the acquisition of
limited partnership equity interests in partnerships (the "Local Partnership" or
"Local Partnerships") that are the owners of the Properties. Registrant invested
in nineteen such Properties including one Property which also qualifies for the
historic rehabilitation tax credit in accordance with Section 48(g) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit").
Registrant considers its activity to constitute a single industry segment.
Richman Tax Credit Properties L.P. (the "General Partner"), a Delaware limited
partnership, was formed on February 10, 1988 to act as the general partner of
Registrant. The general partners of the General Partner are Richard Paul Richman
and Richman Tax Credit Properties Inc. ("Richman Tax"), a Delaware corporation
that is wholly-owned by Richard Paul Richman. Richman Tax is an affiliate of The
Richman Group, Inc. ("Richman Group"), a Delaware corporation founded by Richard
Paul Richman in 1988.
The Amendment No. 2 to the Registration Statement on Form S-11 was filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on April 29, 1988
pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933 under Registration Statement File No.
33-20391, and was declared effective on May 4, 1988. Reference is made to the
prospectus dated May 6, 1988, as supplemented by Supplement No. 1 and Supplement
No. 2 dated August 11, 1988 and September 20, 1988, respectively, filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the
"Prospectus"). Pursuant to Rule 12b-23 of the Commission'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 51 through 75 of the
Prospectus is incorporated herein by reference.
On May 11, 1988, Registrant commenced, through Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner &
Smith Incorporated ("Merrill Lynch"), the offering of up to 50,000 units of
limited partnership interest ("Unit") at $1,000 per Unit to investors. On August
19, 1988 and November 15, 1988, the closings for 23,603 and 17,683 Units,
respectively, took place, amounting to aggregate limited partners' capital
contributions of $41,286,000.
Competition
Pursuant to Rule 12b-23 of the Commission'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 21 through 35 of the Prospectus is incorporated herein by
reference.
Employees
Registrant employs no personnel and incurs no payroll costs. All management
activities of Registrant are conducted by the General Partner. An affiliate of
the General Partner employs individuals who perform the management activities of
Registrant. This entity also performs similar services for other affiliates of
the General Partner.

Extension Act of 1998, Tax and Trade Relief Extension Act of 1999, Community
Renewal Tax Relief Act of 2000 and Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation
Act of 2001 (collectively the "Tax Acts")
Registrant is organized as a limited partnership and is a "pass through" tax
entity which does not, itself, pay federal income tax. However, the partners of
Registrant who are subject to federal income tax may be affected by the Tax
Acts. Registrant will consider the effect of certain aspects of the Tax Acts on
the partners when making decisions regarding its investments. Registrant does
not anticipate that the Tax Acts will currently have a material adverse impact
on Registrant's business operations, capital resources and plans or liquidity.

Item 2. Properties
The executive offices of Registrant and the General Partner are located at 599
West Putnam Avenue, 3rd floor, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830. Registrant does not
own or lease any properties. Registrant pays no rent; all charges for leased
space are borne by an affiliate of the General Partner.
Registrant's primary objective is to provide Low-income Tax Credits to limited
partners generally over a ten year period. The relevant state tax credit agency
has allocated each of Registrant's Local Partnerships an amount of Low-income
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 has been fully exhausted by all of the Properties as of December
31, 2000. The required holding period of each Property, in order to avoid
Low-income Tax Credit recapture, is fifteen years from the year in which the
Low-income Tax Credits commence on the last building of the Property (the
"Compliance Period"). The Properties must satisfy various requirements including
rent restrictions and tenant income limitations (the "Low-income Tax Credit
Requirements") in order to maintain eligibility for the recognition of the
Low-income Tax Credit at all times during the Compliance Period. Once a Local
Partnership has become eligible for the Low-income Tax Credit, it may lose such
eligibility and suffer an event of recapture if its Property fails to remain in
compliance with the Low-income Tax Credit Requirements. In April 1997, B & V,
Ltd. ("B & V") suffered its final event of recapture of Low-income Tax Credits
due to a hurricane which substantially damaged the property owned by such Local
Partnership and the failure of the property to be fully-rebuilt, primarily due
to the non-performance of the insurance company and the resulting foreclosure
action taken by the lender. In May 1998, B & V Phase I, Ltd. ("B & V Phase I")
suffered an event of recapture of Low-income Tax Credits resulting from the same
hurricane and a resulting foreclosure. Due to delays in the reconstruction of
the complex, B & V Phase I was unable to comply with the terms of its agreement
with the lender. In April 1998, Erie Associates Limited Partnership ("Erie")
suffered an event of recapture as a result of a foreclosure sale directed by the
lender, due to accumulated arrearages under the terms of the mortgage.
Although Registrant generally owns a 98.9%-99% limited partnership interest
("Local Partnership Interest") in the Local Partnerships, Registrant and
American Tax Credit Properties II L.P. ("ATCP II"), a Delaware limited
partnership and an affiliate of Registrant, together, in the aggregate, own a
99% Local Partnership Interest in Santa Juanita Limited Dividend Partnership
L.P. ("Santa Juanita"); the ownership percentages of Registrant and ATCP II of
Santa Juanita are 34.64% and 64.36%, respectively.
Many of the Local Partnerships receive rental subsidy payments, including
payments under Section 8 of Title II of the Housing and Community Development
Act of 1974 ("Section 8") (see descriptions of subsidies on page 5). The subsidy
agreements expire at various times during and after the Compliance Periods of
the Local Partnerships. 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 reasonably 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 and debt structure of any or all Local
Partnerships currently receiving such subsidy or similar subsidies. Two Local
Partnerships' Section 8 contracts are currently subject to renewal under
applicable HUD guidelines. In addition, two Local Partnerships have entered into
restructuring agreements, resulting in both a lower rent subsidy and lower
mandatory debt service with no anticipated adverse impact to the operating
results of the Properties.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
There were no matters submitted to a vote of the limited partners of Registrant
during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by this report.

PART II
Item 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity and Related Security Holder
Matters
Market Information and Holders
There is no established public trading market for Registrant's Units.
Accordingly, accurate information as to the market value of a Unit at any given
date is not available. The number of owners of Units as of May 31, 2001 was
2,334, holding 41,286 Units.
Merrill Lynch follows internal guidelines for providing estimated values of
limited partnerships and other direct investments reported on client account
statements. Pursuant to such guidelines, estimated values for limited
partnership interests reported on Merrill Lynch client account statements (such
as Registrant's Units) are provided to Merrill Lynch by independent valuation
services. These estimated values are based on financial and other information
available to the independent services (i) on the prior August 15th for reporting
on December year-end and subsequent client account statements through the
following May's month-end client account statements and (ii) on March 31st for
reporting on June month-end and subsequent client account statements through the
November month-end client account statements of the same year. In addition,
Registrant may provide an estimate of value to Unit holders from time to time in
Registrant's reports to limited partners. 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. In addition, Unit holders may not realize such estimated
values upon the liquidation of Registrant.
Distributions
Registrant owns a limited 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. Accordingly,
Registrant does not anticipate that it will provide significant cash
distributions to its partners. There were no cash distributions to the partners
during the years ended March 30, 2001 and 2000.
Low-income Tax Credits and Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits (together, the
"Tax Credits"), which are subject to various limitations, may be used by
partners to offset federal income tax liabilities. The Tax Credits per Unit
generated by Registrant and allocated to the limited partners for the tax years
ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the cumulative Tax Credits, net of
recaptured Low-income Tax Credits, allocated from inception through December 31,
2000 are as follows:

Cumulative totals $ 71.88 $ 1,454.28
Registrant has generated total Tax Credits from investments in Local
Partnerships of approximately $1,526 per Unit through December 31, 2000, net of
circumstances which have given rise to, and notwithstanding future circumstances
which may give rise to, recapture and loss of future benefits (see Part I, Item
2 - Properties and Part II, Item 7 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations, herein). The Ten Year Credit
Period for all of the Properties has been fully exhausted as of December 31,

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Capital Resources and Liquidity
Registrant admitted limited partners in two closings with aggregate limited
partners' capital contributions of $41,286,000. In connection with the offering
of the sale of units, Registrant incurred organization and offering costs of
approximately $4,781,000 and established a working capital reserve of
approximately $2,271,000. The remaining net proceeds of approximately
$34,234,000 (the "Net Proceeds") were available to be applied to the acquisition
of limited partnership interests in local partnerships (the "Local
Partnerships") that own low-income multifamily residential complexes (the
"Property" or "Properties") that qualify for the low-income tax credit in
accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Low-income Tax
Credit"); one Local Partnership owns a Property that also qualifies for the
historic rehabilitation tax credit in accordance with Section 48 (g) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986. The Net Proceeds were utilized in acquiring an
interest in nineteen Local Partnerships.
As of March 30, 2001, Registrant has cash and cash equivalents and investments
in bonds totaling $1,904,979, which is available for operating expenses of
Registrant and circumstances which may arise in connection with the Local
Partnerships. As of March 30, 2001, Registrant's investments in bonds represent
corporate bonds of $229,411, U.S. Treasury bonds of $1,331,548 and U.S.
government agency bonds of $266,431 with various maturity dates ranging from
2001 to 2007. Registrant acquired such investments in bonds with the intention
of utilizing proceeds generated by such investments to meet its annual
obligations. Future sources of Registrant funds are expected primarily from
interest earned on working capital and limited cash distributions from Local
Partnerships.
During the year ended March 30, 2001, Registrant received cash from interest
revenue, redemptions/maturities and sales of bonds and distributions from Local
Partnerships and utilized cash for operating expenses, investments in bonds and
advances to certain Local Partnerships (see Local Partnership Matters below).
Cash and cash equivalents and investments in bonds decreased, in the aggregate,
by approximately $412,000 during the year ended March 30, 2001 (which includes a
net unrealized gain on investments in bonds of approximately $40,000, the
amortization of net premium on investments in bonds of approximately $22,000 and
the accretion of zero coupon bonds of approximately $16,000). Notwithstanding
circumstances that may arise in connection with the Properties, Registrant does
not expect to realize significant gains or losses on its investments in bonds,
if any.
8
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (continued)
During the year ended March 30, 2001, the investment in local partnerships
decreased as a result of Registrant's equity in the Local Partnerships' net loss
for the year ended December 31, 2000 of $1,227,326 and cash distributions
received from Local Partnerships of $92,182 (exclusive of distributions from
Local Partnerships of $27,475 classified as other income), partially offset by
investments in Local Partnerships of $311,351. Payable to general partner in the
accompanying balance sheets as of March 30, 2001 and 2000 represents accrued
management and administration fees.
Results of Operations
Registrant's operating results are dependent upon the operating results of the
Local Partnerships and are significantly 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. Equity
in loss of each investment in Local Partnership allocated to Registrant is
generally 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, except to the extent that Registrant has an outstanding commitment
to fund future amounts on behalf of a Local Partnership. As a result, the
reported equity in loss of investment in local partnerships is expected to
decrease as Registrant's investment balances in the respective Local
Partnerships become zero. The combined statements of operations of the Local
Partnerships reflected in Note 5 to Registrant's financial statements include
the operating results of those Local Partnerships still operating as of the
dates indicated, irrespective of Registrant's investment balances.
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. In addition, the carrying value of
Registrant's investment in local partnerships may be reduced if the carrying
value is considered to exceed the estimated value derived by management (which
contemplates remaining Low-income Tax Credits and potential residual value,
among other things) ("Local Partnership Carrying Value"). Accordingly,
cumulative losses and cash distributions in excess of the investment or an
adjustment to an investment's carrying value are not necessarily indicative of
adverse operating results of a Local Partnership. See discussion below under
Local Partnership Matters regarding certain Local Partnerships currently
operating below economic break even levels.
Registrant's operations for the years ended March 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999
resulted in net losses of $1,468,424, $1,370,463 and $2,543,362, respectively.
The decrease in net loss from 1999 to 2000 is primarily attributable to a
decrease in equity in loss of investment in local partnerships of approximately
$1,187,000. Equity in loss of investment in local partnerships has fluctuated
over the last three years as a result of (i) Registrant adjusting the Local
Partnership Carrying Value in connection with its investments in Cityside
Apartments, L.P. and Hilltop North Associates, A Virginia Limited Partnership
("Hilltop") during the year ended March 30, 1999 by $596,586 and $423,919,
respectively, (ii) gains resulting from foreclosure actions in connection with B
& V Phase I, Ltd. ("B & V Phase I") and Erie Associates Limited Partnership
("Erie") and (iii) changes in the net operating losses of those Local
Partnerships in which Registrant continues to have an investment balance.
The Local Partnerships' loss from operations of approximately $3,610,000 for the
year ended December 31, 2000 includes depreciation and amortization expense of
approximately $3,906,000 and interest on non-mandatory debt of approximately
$674,000, and does not include principal payments on permanent mortgages of
approximately $770,000. The Local Partnerships' loss from operations of
approximately $3,320,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999 includes
depreciation and amortization expense of approximately $3,868,000 and interest
on non-mandatory debt of approximately $665,000, and does not include principal
payments on permanent mortgages of approximately $724,000. The Local
Partnerships' loss from operations of approximately $3,608,000 for the year
ended December 31, 1998 includes depreciation and amortization expense of
approximately $3,891,000 and interest on non-mandatory debt of approximately
$610,000, and does not include principal payments on permanent mortgages of
approximately $621,000. The results of operations of the Local Partnerships for
the year ended December 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected in future periods.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (continued)
Local Partnership Matters
Registrant's primary objective is to provide Low-income Tax Credits to limited
partners generally over a ten year period. The relevant state tax credit agency
has allocated each of Registrant's Local Partnerships an amount of Low-income
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 has been fully exhausted by all of the Properties as of December
31, 2000. The required holding period of each Property, in order to avoid
Low-income Tax Credit recapture, is fifteen years from the year in which the
Low-income Tax Credits commence on the last building of the Property (the
"Compliance Period"). The Properties must satisfy various requirements including
rent restrictions and tenant income limitations (the "Low-income Tax Credit
Requirements") in order to maintain eligibility for the recognition of the
Low-income Tax Credit at all times during the Compliance Period. Once a Local
Partnership has become eligible for the Low-income Tax Credit, it may lose such
eligibility and suffer an event of recapture if its Property fails to remain in
compliance with the Low-income Tax Credit Requirements.
The Properties are principally comprised of subsidized and leveraged low-income
multifamily residential complexes located throughout the United States and
Puerto Rico. Many of the Local Partnerships receive rental subsidy payments,
including payments under Section 8 of Title II of the Housing and Community
Development Act of 1974 ("Section 8"). The subsidy agreements expire at various
times during and after the Compliance Periods of the Local Partnerships. 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 reasonably 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 and debt structure of any or all Local Partnerships
currently receiving such subsidy or similar subsidies. Two Local Partnerships'
Section 8 contracts are currently subject to renewal under applicable HUD
guidelines. In addition, two Local Partnerships have entered into restructuring
agreements, resulting in both a lower rent subsidy and lower mandatory debt
service with no anticipated adverse impact to the operating results of the
Properties.
The Local Partnerships have various financing structures which include (i)
required debt service payments ("Mandatory Debt Service") and (ii) debt service
payments that 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"). During the year ended December 31, 2000, revenue from
operations of the Local Partnerships has generally been sufficient to cover
operating expenses and Mandatory Debt Service. Most of the Local Partnerships
are effectively operating at or above break even levels, although certain Local
Partnerships' operating information reflects operating deficits that do not
represent cash deficits due to their mortgage and financing structure and the
required deferral of property management fees. However, as discussed below,
certain Local Partnerships' operating information indicates below break even
operations after taking into account their mortgage and financing structure and
any required deferral of property management fees.
Hilltop North Associates, A Virginia Limited Partnership ("Hilltop") reported an
operating deficit of approximately $110,000 for the year ended December 31,
2000. Due to ongoing operating deficits, the Local General Partner approached
Registrant concerning the co-funding of such deficits. As of March 30, 2001,
Registrant has advanced approximately $56,000, of which approximately $13,000
was advanced during the year then ended. The Local General Partner has been
conducting discussions with the local housing authority and HUD in an effort to
resolve what the Local General Partner considers to be excessive tenant,
maintenance and other requirements placed on the Property by the local housing
authority which have resulted in unduly high levels of operating expenses.
Payments on the mortgage and real estate taxes are current. Registrant's
investment balance in Hilltop, after cumulative equity losses and an adjustment
to the investment's carrying value, became zero during the year ended March 30,
1999. Hilltop generated approximately $6.6 per Unit per year of credits to the
limited partners upon the expiration of its Low-income Tax Credit allocation in
1999.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (continued)
Cobbet Hill Associates Limited Partnership ("Cobbet") was originally financed
with a first mortgage with mandatory monthly payment terms with the
Massachusetts Housing Finance Agency) ("MHFA") and a second mortgage with MHFA
under the State Housing Assistance for Rental Production Program (the "SHARP
Operating Loan") whereby proceeds would be advanced monthly as an operating
subsidy (the "Operating Subsidy Payments"). The terms of the SHARP Operating
Loan called for declining Operating Subsidy Payments over its term (not more
than 15 years). However, due to the economic condition of the Northeast region
in the early 1990's, MHFA instituted an operating deficit loan (the "ODL")
program that supplemented the scheduled reduction in the Operating Subsidy
Payments. Effective October 1, 1997, MHFA announced its intention to eliminate
the ODL program, such that Cobbet no longer receives the ODL, without which
Cobbet is unable to make the full Mandatory Debt Service payments on its first
mortgage. MHFA notified Cobbet and, to the Local General Partners' knowledge,
other ODL recipients as well, that MHFA considers such mortgages to be in
default. MHFA adopted a plan to recapitalize several of the ODL program
properties with funds to be contributed from the admission of a new limited
partner, and MHFA commissioned an institutional broker (the "Broker") to
identify such a new limited partner. However, MHFA communicated with Cobbet
(confirmed by letter dated February 7, 2000) that Cobbet was not included in
MHFA's recapitalization program because Cobbet is party to a project based
Section 8 contract. However, MHFA communicated that Cobbet was free to identify
a new limited partner, independent of MHFA's process, with the intention similar
to that of the recapitalization plan. In the February 7, 2000 letter, MHFA
provided Cobbet until March 3, 2000 to notify MHFA of its desire to modify its
mortgage loan by paying the required fee (which as a practical matter would
require a recapitalization investor) and made no reference in the letter to the
previous discussion in which MHFA indicated that Cobbet could locate a separate
recapitalization investor. Cobbet replied to MHFA, indicating its desire to
locate a recapitalization investor. The Local General Partners contacted the
Broker, which indicated that a private investor may be interested in a
recapitalization plan for Cobbet. On August 7, 2000, the General Partners of
Cobbet met with MHFA to discuss future capital improvements. A contribution
payment of $300,000 was offered by Registrant to help fund the capital
improvements, with $150,000 to be advanced currently (all of which has been
advanced by Registrant as of March 30, 2001) and $50,000 to be advanced annually
over each of the next three years. MHFA approved all of the items on the agenda
and indicated a strong interest in pursuing a recapitalization of Cobbet. In
January 2001, MHFA notified Cobbet in writing as to whether Cobbet was willing
to participate in another recapitalization plan (notwithstanding Cobbet's
project based Section 8 contract) which MHFA may pursue and in February 2001
Cobbet replied to MHFA that it is so interested. If such a plan were
implemented, such new limited partner would receive a substantial portion of the
annual allocation of Cobbet's tax losses upon such partner's admission, plus
cash flows and residuals, if any. Registrant and the Local General Partners
would retain a sufficient interest in Cobbet to avoid recapture of Low-income
Tax Credits. There can be no assurance that a plan will be implemented, and if
not, MHFA is likely to retain its rights under the loan documents. The future
financial viability of Cobbet is highly uncertain. The Property's historic tax
credit was allocated in 1988 and all of the Low-income Tax Credits have been
allocated since 1989. Registrant's investment balance in Cobbet, after
cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 1994.
Cobbet generated approximately $19.2 per Unit per year of credits to the limited
partners upon the expiration of its Low-income Tax Credit allocation in 1999.
4611 South Drexel Limited Partnership ("South Drexel") reported an operating
deficit of approximately $237,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000 due to
high vacancies resulting from deferred unit maintenance and required capital
improvements. As of March 30, 2001, Registrant has advanced approximately
$297,000, of which approximately $148,000 was advanced during the year then
ended, and it is expected that Registrant will make additional advances to make
needed capital improvements to the property in an effort to achieve stabilized
occupancy. Payments on the mortgage and real estate taxes are current.
Registrant's investment balance in South Drexel, after cumulative equity losses,
became zero during the year ended March 30, 1996. South Drexel generated
approximately $1.7 per Unit per year of credits to the limited partners upon the
expiration of its Low-income Tax Credit allocation in 2000.
Grove Park Housing, A California Limited Partnership ("Grove Park") reported an
operating deficit of approximately $42,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000
due to declining occupancy resulting from deferred unit maintenance and required
capital improvements. Payments on the mortgage and real estate taxes are
current. Registrant's investment balance in Grove Park, after cumulative equity
losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 1995. Grove Park generated
approximately $7.6 per Unit per year of credits to the limited partners upon the
expiration of its Low-income Tax Credit allocation in 1999.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations (continued)
Inflation
Inflation is not expected to have a material adverse impact on Registrant's
operations during its period of ownership of the Local Partnership Interests.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
Registrant has invested a significant portion of its working capital reserves in
corporate bonds, U.S. Treasury instruments and U.S. government and agency
securities. The market value of such investments is subject to fluctuation based
upon changes in interest rates relative to each investment's maturity date.
Since Registrant's investments in bonds have various maturity dates through
2007, the value of such investments may be adversely impacted in an environment
of rising interest rates in the event Registrant decides to liquidate any such
investment prior to its maturity. Although Registrant may utilize reserves to
assist an under performing Property, it otherwise intends to hold such
investments to their respective maturities. Therefore, Registrant does not
anticipate any material adverse impact in connection with such investments.

Independent Auditors' Report
To the Partners
American Tax Credit Properties L.P.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of American Tax Credit
Properties L.P. as of March 30, 2001 and 2000, and the related statements of
operations, changes in partners' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended March 30, 2001. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the partnership's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits 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
Properties L.P. as of March 30, 2001 and 2000, and the results of its operations
and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 30,
2001, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

AMERICAN TAX CREDIT PROPERTIES L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999
1. Organization, Purpose and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
American Tax Credit Properties L.P. (the "Partnership") was formed on February
12, 1988 and the Certificate of Limited Partnership of the Partnership was filed
under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act. There was no
operating activity until admission of the limited partners on August 19, 1988.
The Partnership was formed to invest primarily in leveraged low-income
multifamily residential complexes (the "Property" or "Properties") that qualify
for the low-income tax credit in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal
Revenue Code (the "Low-income Tax Credit"), through the acquisition of limited
partnership equity interests (the "Local Partnership Interests") in partnerships
(the "Local Partnership" or "Local Partnerships") that are the owners of the
Properties. The Partnership has invested in one Property that also qualifies for
the historic rehabilitation tax credit in accordance with Section 48(g) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Richman Tax Credit Properties L.P. (the "General
Partner") was formed on February 10, 1988 to act as a general partner of the
Partnership.
Basis of Accounting and Fiscal Year
The Partnership's records are maintained on the accrual basis of accounting for
both financial reporting and tax purposes. For financial reporting purposes, the
Partnership'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 Partnership and the Local Partnerships each
have a calendar year for income tax purposes.
Investment in Local Partnerships
The Partnership 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 Partnership'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 Partnership is generally
recognized to the extent of the Partnership's investment balance in each Local
Partnership. Equity in loss in excess of the Partnership's investment balance in
a Local Partnership is allocated to other partners' capital in any such Local
Partnership, except to the extent that the Partnership has an outstanding
commitment to fund future amounts on behalf of a 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 Partnership. 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.
The Partnership regularly assesses the carrying value of its investments in
local partnerships. If the carrying value of an investment in a Local
Partnership exceeds the estimated value derived by management (which
contemplates remaining Low-income Tax Credits and estimated residual value,
among other things), the Partnership reduces its investment in any such Local
Partnership and includes such reduction in equity in loss of investment in local
partnerships.
Advances made to Local Partnerships are recorded as investments in local
partnerships. Such advances are considered by the Partnership to be voluntary
loans to the respective Local Partnerships and the Partnership may be reimbursed
at a future date to the extent such Local Partnerships generate distributable
cash flow or receive proceeds from sale or refinancing.
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 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.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Partnership 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.

MARCH 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999
1. Organization, Purpose and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(continued)
Investments in Bonds
Investments in bonds are classified as available-for-sale and represent
investments that the Partnership intends to hold for an indefinite period of
time but not necessarily to maturity. Any decision to sell an investment would
be based on various factors, including significant movements in interest rates
and liquidity needs. Investments in bonds are carried at estimated fair value
and unrealized gains or losses are included as items of comprehensive income
(loss) and are reported as a separate component of partners' equity (deficit).
Premiums and discounts on investments in bonds are amortized (accreted) using
the straight-line method over the life of the investment. Amortized premiums
offset interest revenue, while the accretion of discounts and zero coupon bonds
are included in interest revenue. Realized gain (loss) on redemption or sale of
investments in bonds are included in, or offset against, interest revenue on the
basis of the adjusted cost of each specific investment redeemed or sold.
Income Taxes
No provision for income taxes has been made because all income, losses and tax
credits are allocated to the partners for inclusion in their respective tax
returns. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS")
No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," the Partnership has included in Note 7
disclosures related to differences in the book and tax bases of accounting.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year Local Partnership balances in Note 5 have been reclassified
to conform to the current year presentation.
2. Capital Contributions
On May 11, 1988, the Partnership commenced the offering of units (the "Units")
through Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (the "Selling
Agent"). On August 19, 1988 and November 15, 1988, under the terms of the
Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership (the
"Partnership Agreement"), the General Partner admitted limited partners to the
Partnership in two closings. At these closings, subscriptions for a total of
41,286 Units representing $41,286,000 in limited partners' capital contributions
were accepted. In connection with the offering of Units, the Partnership
incurred organization and offering costs of $4,781,252, of which $75,000 was
capitalized as organization costs and $4,706,252 was charged to the limited
partners' equity as syndication costs. The Partnership received a capital
contribution of $100 from the General Partner.
Net loss is allocated 99% to the limited partners and 1% to the General Partner
in accordance with the Partnership Agreement.
3. Cash and Cash Equivalents
As of March 30, 2001, the Partnership has $77,589 in cash and cash equivalents
that are deposited in interest-bearing accounts with an institution that is not
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

4. Investments in Bonds
The Partnership carries its investments in bonds as available-for-sale because
such investments are used to facilitate and provide flexibility for the
Partnership's obligations, including resolving circumstances that may arise in
connection with the Local Partnerships. Such bonds include $257,801 restricted
in connection with a Local Partnership's outstanding letter of credit (see Note
8). Investments in bonds are reflected in the accompanying balance sheets at

5. Investment in Local Partnerships
As of March 30, 2001, the Partnership owns a limited partnership interest in the
following Local Partnerships:
1. 4611 South Drexel Limited Partnership ("South Drexel");
2. Blue Hill Housing Limited Partnership;
3. Cityside Apartments, L.P. ("Cityside")*;
4. Cobbet Hill Associates Limited Partnership ("Cobbet")*;
5. Dunbar Limited Partnership;
6. Dunbar Limited Partnership No. 2;
7. Federal Apartments Limited Partnership;
8. Golden Gates Associates;
9. Grove Park Housing, A California Limited Partnership;
10. Gulf Shores Apartments Ltd.;
11. Hilltop North Associates, A Virginia Limited Partnership ("Hilltop");
12. Madison-Bellefield Associates;
13. Pine Hill Estates Limited Partnership;
14. Santa Juanita Limited Dividend Partnership L.P. ("Santa Juanita");
15. Vista del Mar Limited Dividend Partnership L.P.; and
16. Winnsboro Homes Limited Partnership.
* An affiliate of the General Partner is a general partner of and/or provides
services to the Local Partnership.
Although the Partnership generally owns a 98.9%-99% limited partnership interest
in the Local Partnerships, the Partnership and American Tax Credit Properties II
L.P. ("ATCP II"), a Delaware limited partnership and an affiliate of the
Partnership, together, in the aggregate, own a 99% Local Partnership Interest in
Santa Juanita; the ownership percentages of the Partnership and ATCP II of Santa
Juanita are 34.64% and 64.36%, respectively.
The Properties are principally comprised of subsidized and leveraged low-income
multifamily residential complexes located throughout the United States and
Puerto Rico. The required holding period of each Property, in order to avoid
Low-income Tax Credit recapture, is fifteen years from the year in which the
Low-income Tax Credits commence on the last building of the Property (the
"Compliance Period"). The rents of the Properties are controlled by federal and
state agencies pursuant to applicable laws and regulations. Under the terms of
each of the Local Partnership's partnership agreements, the Partnership has made
capital contributions in the aggregate amount of $35,013,709, which includes
advances to certain Local Partnerships. As of December 31, 2000, the Local
Partnerships have outstanding mortgage loans payable totaling approximately
$72,172,000 and accrued interest payable on such loans totaling approximately
$4,326,000, which are secured by security interests and liens common to mortgage
loans on the Local Partnerships' real property and other assets.
Equity in loss of investment in local partnerships is limited to the
Partnership's investment balance in each Local Partnership; any excess is
applied to other partners' capital in any such Local Partnership (see Note 1).
The amount of such excess losses applied to other partners' capital was
$2,283,151, $2,187,634 and $2,305,457 for the years ended December 31, 2000,
1999 and 1998, respectively, as reflected in the combined statements of
operations of the Local Partnerships reflected herein Note 5.
As a result of management's assessment of the carrying value of the investment
in local partnerships under applicable accounting guidelines (see Note 1), the
Partnership reduced its investment in Cityside and Hilltop during the year ended
March 30, 1999 by $596,586 and $423,919, respectively. Such losses are included
in equity in loss of investment in local partnerships in the accompanying
statement of operations of the Partnership for the year ended March 30, 1999.

B & V Phase I, Ltd. ("B & V Phase I") owned a 97-unit, Section 8 assisted
apartment complex located in Homestead, Florida. Prior to the Partnership's
investment during the year ended March 30, 1995, B & V Phase I was damaged by
Hurricane Andrew in August 1992. Since May 1, 1996, all 97 of the rental units
were complete and occupied. Pursuant to an agreement with the lender, B & V
Phase I was to commence paying debt service in January 1995 which was to
coincide with the completion of construction. However, due to construction
delays, B & V Phase I had not commenced making such payments. The lender
declared a default under the terms of the mortgage and, on December 9, 1996 the
lender commenced a foreclosure action. After pursuing various legal efforts that
were ultimately unsuccessful because alternative sources of financing could not
be secured, the property was transferred to the lender in May 1998. As a result,
the combined statement of operations of the Local Partnerships for the year
ended December 31, 1998 presented herein Note 5 does not include the results of
operations of B & V Phase I with the exception of an extraordinary gain
recognized on the extinguishment of debt in the amount of $2,467,526. The
Partnership's investment balance in B & V Phase I, after cumulative equity
losses, became zero during the year ended March 30, 1995, therefore the
aforementioned transfer had no effect on the financial position, results of
operations or cash flows of the Partnership.
Erie Associates Limited Partnership ("Erie"), which was in the tenth year of the
Low-income Tax Credit period, was subject to an amended and restated note (the
"Amended Note") dated December 1, 1994 (which matured on December 1, 1997) and
was entitled to a project-based rental subsidy under Chapter 707 of the Acts of
1966 of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The original financing called for
mandatory debt service of $7,647 per month, while the Amended Note required
monthly mandatory debt service of $5,883. The Local General Partners had
reported that Erie was several months in arrears under the terms of the Amended
Note, that a default was declared by the lender and that discussions were being
held with the lender. While negotiations were ongoing, the lender conducted a
foreclosure sale of the property in April 1998. The Partnership made an offer to
repurchase the property and acquire the Amended Note in order to avoid adverse
tax consequences but was ultimately unsuccessful. As a result, the combined
statement of operations of the Local Partnerships for the year ended December
31, 1998 presented herein Note 5 does not include the results of operations of
Erie with the exception of an extraordinary gain recognized on the
extinguishment of debt in the amount of $704,103. The Partnership's investment
balance in Erie, after cumulative equity losses, became zero during the year
ended March 30, 1998, therefore the aforementioned transfer had no effect on the
financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Partnership.

5. Investment in Local Partnerships (continued)
Cobbet was originally financed with a first mortgage with mandatory monthly
payment terms with the Massachusetts Housing Finance Agency ("MHFA") and a
second mortgage with MHFA under the State Housing Assistance for Rental
Production Program (the "SHARP Operating Loan") whereby proceeds would be
advanced monthly as an operating subsidy (the "Operating Subsidy Payments"). The
terms of the SHARP Operating Loan called for declining Operating Subsidy
Payments over its term (not more than 15 years). However, due to the economic
condition of the Northeast region in the early 1990's, MHFA instituted an
operating deficit loan (the "ODL") program that supplemented the scheduled
reduction in the Operating Subsidy Payments. Effective October 1, 1997, MHFA
announced its intention to eliminate the ODL program, such that Cobbet no longer
receives the ODL, without which Cobbet is unable to make the full mandatory debt
service payments on its first mortgage. MHFA notified Cobbet and, to the Local
General Partners' knowledge, other ODL recipients as well, that MHFA considers
such mortgages to be in default. MHFA adopted a plan to recapitalize several of
the ODL program properties with funds to be contributed from the admission of a
new limited partner, and MHFA commissioned an institutional broker (the
"Broker") to identify such a new limited partner. However, MHFA communicated
with Cobbet (confirmed by letter dated February 7, 2000) that Cobbet was not
included in MHFA's recapitalization program because Cobbet is party to a project
based Section 8 contract. However, MHFA communicated that Cobbet was free to
identify a new limited partner, independent of MHFA's process, with the
intention similar to that of the recapitalization plan. In the February 7, 2000
letter, MHFA provided Cobbet until March 3, 2000 to notify MHFA of its desire to
modify its mortgage loan by paying the required fee (which as a practical matter
would require a recapitalization investor) and made no reference in the letter
to the previous discussion in which MHFA indicated that Cobbet could locate a
separate recapitalization investor. Cobbet replied to MHFA, indicating its
desire to locate a recapitalization investor. The Local General Partners
contacted the Broker, which indicated that a private investor may be interested
in a recapitalization plan for Cobbet. On August 7, 2000, the Local General
Partners met with MHFA to discuss future capital improvements. A contribution
payment of $300,000 was offered by the Partnership to help fund the capital
improvements, with $150,000 to be advanced currently and $50,000 to be advanced
annually over each of the next three years. MHFA approved all of the items on
the agenda and indicated a strong interest in pursuing a recapitalization of
Cobbet. In January 2001, MHFA notified Cobbet in writing as to whether Cobbet
was willing to participate in another recapitalization plan (notwithstanding
Cobbet's project based Section 8 contract) which MHFA may pursue and in February
2001 Cobbet replied to MHFA that it is so interested. If such a plan were
implemented, such new limited partner would receive a substantial portion of the
annual allocation of Cobbet's tax losses upon such partner's admission, plus
cash flows and residuals, if any. The Partnership and the Local General Partners
would retain a sufficient interest in Cobbet to avoid recapture of Low-income
Tax Credits. There can be no assurance that a plan will be implemented, and if
not, MHFA is likely to retain its rights under the loan documents. The
Partnership's investment balance in Cobbet, after cumulative equity losses,
became zero during the year ended March 30, 1994. As of March 30, 2001, the
Partnership has advanced $150,000, all of which has been recorded as investment
in local partnerships in the accompanying balance sheet as of March 30, 2001.
The Partnership advanced $148,484 and $138,193 during the years ended March 30,
2001 and 2000, respectively, to South Drexel to fund operating deficits which
includes making necessary capital improvements to the property. The advances
have been recorded as investment in local partnerships in the accompanying
balance sheets.
The Partnership advanced $12,867 and $43,343 during the years ended March 30,
2001 and 2000, respectively, to Hilltop to fund operating deficits which
includes making necessary capital improvements to the property. The advances
have been recorded as investment in local partnerships in the accompanying
balance sheets.

8. Commitments and Contingencies
Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership incurs an annual
management fee ("Management Fee") in the amount of $175,466 payable to the
General Partner for its services in connection with the management of the
affairs of the Partnership. the Partnership incurred a Management Fee of
$175,466 for each of the three years ended March 30, 2001. Unpaid Management
Fees in the amount of $43,861 are recorded as payable to general partner and
affiliates in the accompanying balance sheets as of March 30, 2001 and 2000.
In addition, pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is
authorized to contract for administrative services provided to the Partnership.
From the inception of the Partnership through November 23, 1999, such
administrative services were provided by ML Fund Administrators Inc. ("MLFA"),
an affiliate of the Selling Agent, pursuant to an Administrative Services
Agreement. MLFA resigned the performance of its basic services under the
Administrative Services Agreement effective November 23, 1999, with certain
transitional services continued through April 30, 2000. The General Partner
transitioned the administrative services to an affiliate of the General Partner
without any changes to the terms of the Administrative Services Agreement.
Pursuant to such agreement, the Partnership incurs an annual administration fee
("Administration Fee") in the amount of $152,758 and an annual additional
administration fee ("Additional Administration Fee") in the amount of $30,965
for administrative services provided to the Partnership, subject to certain
provisions of the Partnership Agreement. The Partnership incurred an
Administration Fee and an Additional Administration Fee in the amounts of
$152,758 and $30,965, respectively, for each of the three years ended March 30,
2001. Such amounts are aggregated and reflected under the caption administration
fees in the accompanying statements of operations. Unpaid Administration Fees in
the amount of $30,803 and $30,798 are included in payable to general partner and
affiliates in the accompanying balance sheets as of March 30, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.
The rents of the Properties, many of which receive rental subsidy payments,
including payments under Section 8 of Title II of the Housing and Community
Development Act of 1974 ("Section 8"), are subject to specific laws, regulations
and agreements with federal and state agencies. The subsidy agreements expire at
various times during and after the Compliance Periods of the Local Partnerships.
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. The Partnership
cannot reasonably 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 and debt structure of any or all Local Partnerships
currently receiving such subsidy or similar subsidies. Two Local Partnerships'
Section 8 contracts are currently subject to renewal under applicable HUD
guidelines. In addition, two Local Partnerships have entered into restructuring
agreements, resulting in both a lower rent subsidy and lower mandatory debt
service with no anticipated adverse impact to the operating results of the
Properties.
In connection with Cobbet's financing, the Partnership has provided collateral
to secure a letter of credit in the amount of $242,529, which had been
established for the purpose of covering future operating deficits, if any, of
Cobbet. The lender may draw directly from the letter of credit to fund any
operating deficits that exist and upon any default by Cobbet with respect to any
of the obligations under the loan agreement. At the end of a 12-month period in
which the property achieves positive cash flow, the undrawn balance in the
letter of credit and any amounts advanced under a separate operating guaranty
(not an obligation of the Partnership) shall be released or reduced at the
written request of Cobbet by $114,315. Thereafter, in any subsequent 12-month
period in which there is positive cash flow, the same amount may be released.
These releases will only be made so long as Cobbet has complied with the
conditions set forth by the lender as provided in the loan agreement.
