CENTURY PACIFIC HOUSING FUND-I
a California Limited Partnership
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Quarter Ended June 30, 2002
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF THE PARTNERSHIP AND ITS ORGANIZATION:
Century Pacific Housing Fund I, a California limited partnership (the
"Partnership" or "CPHF-I") was formed on October 6, 1986 for the purpose of
raising capital by offering and selling limited partnership interests and then
acquiring limited partnership interests in partnerships (the "Operating
Partnerships") which acquire and operate existing residential apartment rental
properties (the "Properties").
The general partners of the Partnership are Century Pacific Capital Corporation,
a California corporation ("CPCC"), and Irwin Jay Deutch, an individual
(collectively, the "General Partners"). The General Partners and affiliates of
the General Partners (the "General Partners and Affiliates") have interests in
the Partnership and receive compensation from the Partnership and the Operating
Partnerships (Note 3).
The Properties qualify for the "Low-Income Housing Tax Credit" established by
Section 42 of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 (the "Low-Income Housing Tax Credit")
and one Property qualifies for Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits (collectively
the "Tax Credits"). These Properties are leveraged low-income multifamily
residential complexes and some receive one or more forms of assistance from
federal, state or local governments, or agencies (the "Government Agencies")
while others do not receive any subsidy from Government Agencies although some
may have mortgage loans insured by a Government Agency.
In July 1987, the Partnership began raising capital from sales of limited
partnership interests at $1,000 per interest ("unit"). The limited partnership
offering closed in April 1988, with 22,315 units having been sold.
The Partnership acquired limited partnership interest ranging from 90% to 97% in
21 Operating Partnerships, which have invested in rental property.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Century Pacific Housing Fund
I (the "Company") as of June 30, 2002 and March 31, 2002(the March 31, 2002
financial information included herein has been extracted from the Company's
audited financial statements on Form 10-K) and for the three months ended June
30, 2002 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of the Company's management, all adjustments (consisting of only
normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the
financial statements have been made.
The statements of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2002 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.
These statements should be read in
10
conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included on
form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2002.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The following are the Partnership's significant accounting policies:
Method of Accounting for Investments in Operating Partnerships:
The Partnership uses the equity method to account for its investment in the
Operating Partnerships in which it has invested (Note 4).
Under the equity method of accounting, the investment is carried at cost and
adjusted for the Partnership's share of the Operating Partnerships' results of
operations and by cash distributions received. Equity in the loss of each
Operating Partnership allocated to the Partnership is not recognized to the
extent that the investment balance would become negative.
Basis of Accounting:
The Partnership maintains its financial records on the tax basis. Memorandum
entries, while not recorded in the records of the Partnership, have been made in
the financial statements to reflect generally accepted accounting principles.
On August 7, 1991, management of the Partnership changed from a calendar year
end to a fiscal year end of March 31 for financial reporting purposes.
Accordingly, the Partnership's quarterly periods end June 30, September 30, and
December 31. The Operating Partnerships, for financial reporting purposes, have
a calendar year. The Partnership, as well as the Operating Partnerships, have a
calendar year for income tax purposes.
Syndication Costs:
Public offering costs have been recorded as a direct reduction to the capital
accounts of the Limited Partners.
Organization, Acquisition and Other Costs:
Costs incurred in organizing the Partnership and expenditures made by the
Partnership in connection with its acquiring limited partnership interests in
Operating Partnerships are deferred and amortized over a period of sixty months
on a straight-line basis. Costs paid by the Partnership for organization of the
Operating Partnerships as well as direct costs of acquiring Properties,
including acquisition fees and reimbursable acquisition expenses paid to the
General Partners, have been capitalized as investments in Operating
Partnerships. Other fees and expenses of the Partnership are recognized as
expenses in the period the related services are received.
11
Income Taxes:
No provision has been made for income taxes in the accompanying financial
statements since such taxes and/or the recapture of the Tax Credit benefits
received, if any, are the liability of the individual partners. The Partnership
uses the accrual method of accounting for tax purposes.
NOTE 3 - TRANSACTIONS WITH THE GENERAL PARTNERS AND AFFILIATES OF THE GENERAL
PARTNERS:
The General Partners of the Partnership are CPCC and Irwin Jay Deutch. The
original limited partner of the Partnership is Westwood Associates whose
partners are Irwin Jay Deutch and key employees of CPCC. Century Pacific
Placement Corporation ("CPPC"), an affiliate of the General Partners, served as
the broker-dealer-manager for sales of limited partnership interests in the
Partnership. Century Pacific Realty Corporation ("CPRC"), an affiliate of CPCC,
is a general partner in each of the Operating Partnerships.
The General Partners have an aggregate one percent interest in the Partnership,
as does the original limited partner. CPRC has a one percent interest in each of
the Operating Partnerships, except for one Operating Partnership in which it has
a one-half percent interest.
The General Partners and Affiliates receive compensation and reimbursement of
expenses from the Partnership, as set forth in the limited partnership
agreement, for their services in managing the Partnership and its business. The
General Partners and Affiliates also receive compensation and reimbursement of
expenses from the Operating Partnerships. This compensation and reimbursement
includes services provided to the Partnership during its offering stage,
acquisition stage, operational stage, and termination or refinancing stage.
