Item 1. Business
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 5
Organization
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund, VI, L.P., Series 5 (the "Partnership") was formed
under the California Revised Limited Partnership Act on March 3, 1997 and
commenced operations on August 29, 1997. The Partnership was formed to invest
primarily in other limited partnerships or limited liability companies which
will own and operate multi-family housing complexes that will qualify for low
income housing credits (the "Low Income Housing Credit").
The general partner of the Partnership is WNC & Associates, Inc. ("Associates"
or the "General Partner".) Wilfred N. Cooper, Sr., through the Cooper Revocable
Trust, owns just less than 70% of the outstanding stock of Associates. John B.
Lester, Jr. is the original limited partner of the Partnership and owns, through
the Lester Family Trust, just less than 30% of the outstanding stock of
Associates. The business of the Partnership is conducted primarily through the
General Partner as the Partnership has no employees of its own.
Pursuant to a registration statement (Commission File No. 333-24111) which was
declared effective on June 23, 1997, the Partnership commenced a public offering
of 25,000 units of Limited Partnership Interest ("Units"), at a price of $1,000
per Unit. As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership had received and accepted
subscriptions for 9,834 Units net of volume and dealer discounts of $38,620, in
the amount of $9,795,380, of which $351,150 was represented by promissory notes
of the subscribers. 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 or non-managing member in
local limited partnerships and local limited liability companies ("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. 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 any Local Limited Partnership of its 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 years in the future, and (iii) the inability of the
Partnership to directly cause the sale of Apartment Complexes by the general
partners or managing members of the respective Local Limited Partnerships (the
"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 (and then subject to the ability of government lenders to
disapprove of transfers), 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's Agreement of
Limited Partnership, as amended by the First Amendment thereto ("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.
3
As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership had invested in two Local Limited
Partnerships. Each of these Local Limited Partnerships owns an Apartment Complex
that is or is expected to be eligible for the Low Income Housing Credit. All of
theses 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 that
neither the Partnership's investments nor the Apartment Complexes owned by the
Local Limited Partnerships will be readily marketable. Additionally, there can
be no assurance that the Partnership will be able to dispose of its interests in
the 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 and natural disasters
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 Local General Partners, there can be no assurance that
the anticipated Low Income Housing Credits will be available to Limited
Partners.
As of December 31, 1997, the two Apartment Complexes were still under
construction. The Apartment Complexes were being developed by the respective
Local General Partners who acquired the sites and applied for applicable
mortgages and subsidies. The Partnership became the principal limited partner or
non-managing member in these Local Limited Partnerships pursuant to arm's-length
negotiations with the respective Local General Partners. As a limited partner or
non-managing member, the Partnership's liability for obligations of each Local
Limited Partnership is limited to its investment. The Local General Partners of
each Local Limited Partnership retain responsibility for developing,
constructing, maintaining, operating and managing the Apartment Complex.

Item 5b.
The Partnership is conducting an offering pursuant to a registration statement
(Commission File No. 333-24111) which was declared effective on June 23, 1997.
As of December 31, 1997 the Partnership had received subscriptions for 9,834
Units, for an aggregate amount of capital contributions of $9,795,380 net of
volume and dealer discounts of $38,630 in an offering which commenced on July
16, 1997. At December 31, 1997, the above capital contributions consisted of
cash of $8,812,345, subscriptions receivable of $631,885 and notes receivable of
$351,150. At December 31, 1997, approximately $1,257,500 was paid or due to
Associates or WNC Capital Corporation, the dealer-manager for the offering, for
selling commissions, wholesaling activities and in reimbursement of other
organization and offering expenses. Included therein are selling commissions of
approximately $650,500 and wholesaling and other organization and offering
expenses of approximately $322,300 which were paid or to be paid to
5
non-affiliates. At December 31, 1997, approximately $8,537,500 (net proceeds
after selling commissions and offering expenses) is invested or available to be

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operation
Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------
The Partnership is raising equity capital from investors by means of it offering
and is applying such capital to the purchase price and acquisition fees and
costs of Local Limited Partnerships Interests, reserves and expenses. As of
August 29, 1997, the Partnership had received cash subscription funds in excess
of $1,400,000, thereby satisfying the minimum offering condition. As of December
31, 1997 and March 19, 1998 the Partnership had received and accepted
subscription funds in the amounts of $9,795,380 (9,834 Units), and $14,346,005
(14,409 Units), respectively, of which $351,150 and $468,650, respectively, were
represented by promissory notes of investors.
Approximately 75% of the proceeds from the sale of Units have been committed to
the purchase price and acquisition fees and costs of eight Local Limited
Partnership Interests, reserves and expenses of the offering. The Partnership
requires a total of approximately $10,841,000 in this regard. As of December 31,
1997 and March 19, 1998, the Partnership had made capital contributions of
$836,632 and $3,693,095, respectively, to Local Limited Partnerships
As of December 31, 1997 the Partnership was indebted to Associates in the amount
of $361,900 The component items of such indebtedness were as follows: accrued
acquisition fees of approximately $62,900, advances to pay front-end fees and
costs of approximately $294,300, and other advances of approximately $4,700.
Overall, as reflected in its Statement of Cash Flows, the Partnership had a net
increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $5,498,400 for the period
ended December 31, 1997. This increase in cash was provided by the Partnership's
financing activities, including the proceeds from the offering. Cash from
financing activities for the period ended December 31, 1997 of approximately
$7,917,800 was sufficient to fund the investing activities of the Partnership in
the aggregate amount of approximately $2,416,500 which consisted primarily of
capital contributions to Local Limited Partnerships, loans to Local Limited
Partnerships and acquisition costs and fees of approximately $836,600, $878,900
and 701,000, respectively. Cash provided and used by the operating activities of
the Partnership was minimal compared to its other activities. Cash provided by
operations consisted primarily of interest received on cash deposits, and cash
used consisted primarily of payments for operating fees and expenses. The major
components of all these activities are discussed in greater detail below.
It is not expected that any of the Local Limited Partnerships in which the
Partnership has invested or will invest will generate cash from operations
sufficient to provide distributions to the Limited Partners in any material
amount. Such cash from operations, if any, would first be used to meet operating
expenses of the Partnership, including payment of the asset management fee to
the General Partner.
The Partnership's investments will not be 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 Units will be sufficient to fund the Partnership's investment commitments
and proposed operations.
The Partnership will establish working capital reserves of at least 3% of
capital contributions, an amount which is anticipated to be sufficient to
satisfy general working capital and administrative expense requirements of the
Partnership excluding 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. The Partnership's liquidity could also be affected by defaults
or delays in payment of the Limited Partners' promissory notes, from which a
7
portion of the working capital reserves is expected to be funded. 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 the Limited 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
contributed by the general partners of the Local Limited Partnerships, 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 general
partners of the Local Limited Partnerships, (iii) other equity sources (which
could adversely affect the Partnership's interest in Low Income Housing 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.
The Partnership's capital needs and resources are expected to undergo major
changes during their first several years of operations as a result of the
completion of its offering of Units and its acquisition of investments.
Thereafter, the Partnership's capital needs and resources are expected to be
relatively stable over the holding periods of the investments except to the
extent of proceeds received in payment of Local Limited Partnership promissory
notes and disbursed to fund the deferred obligations of the Partnership.
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
As reflected on its Statements of Operations, the Partnership had income of
approximately $2,308 for the period ended December 31, 1997. The component items
of revenue and expense are discussed below.
Revenue. The Partnership's revenue consists entirely of interest earned on
Limited Partner promissory notes and 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. It is anticipated that the
Partnership will maintain cash reserves in an amount not materially in excess of
the minimum amount required by its Partnership Agreement, which is 3% of capital
contributions.
Expenses. The most significant component of operating expenses is expected to be
the asset management fee. The asset management fees is equal to the greater of
(i) $2,000 for each Apartment Complex or (ii) 0.275% of gross proceeds, and will
be decreased or increased annually based on changes to the Consumer Price Index.
No management fees were incurred for the period ended December 31, 1997.
Amortization expense consists of the amortization over a period of 30 years of
acquisition fees and other expenses attributable to the acquisition of Local
Limited Partnership Interests.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Partners
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 5
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund
VI, L.P., Series 5 (a California Limited Partnership) (the "Partnership") as of
December 31, 1997, and the related statements of operations, partners' equity
(deficit) and cash flows for the period August 29, 1997 (date operations
commenced) through December 31, 1997. 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 audit. We did not audit
the financial statements of the limited partnership or the limited liability
corporation in which WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 5 is a limited
partner and investor member, respectively. These investments, as discussed in
Note 3 to the financial statements, are accounted for by the equity method. The
investments in these entities represented 25% of the total assets of WNC Housing
Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 5 at December 31, 1997. The financial
statements of the limited partnership were audited by other auditors whose
report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the
amounts included for this limited partnership, is based solely on the report of
the other auditors.
We conducted our audit 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 audit and the report of the other auditors provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of other auditors, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 5 (a
California Limited Partnership) as of December 31, 1997, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the period August 29, 1997 (date operations

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For The Period August 29, 1997 (Date Operations
Commenced) Through December 31, 1997
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
- ---------------------------------------------------
Organization
- ------------
WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 5 (the "Partnership") was formed
under the California Revised Limited Partnership Act on March 3, 1997, and
commenced operations on August 29, 1997. Prior to August 29, 1997, the
Partnership was considered a development-stage enterprise. The Partnership was
formed to invest primarily in other limited partnerships and limited liability
corporations ("Investees") which will own and operate multi-family housing
complexes that will qualify for low income housing credits.
The general partner is WNC Tax Credit Partners, IV, L.P. (the "General
Partner"), a California limited partnership. WNC & Associates, Inc. is the
general partner of the General Partner. Wilfred N. Cooper, Sr., through the
Cooper Revocable Trust, owns 70% of the outstanding stock of WNC & Associates,
Inc. John B. Lester, Jr. is the original limited partner of the Partnership and
owns, through the Lester Family Trust, 30% of the outstanding stock of WNC &
Associates, Inc.
The Partnership shall continue in full force and effect until December 31, 2052,
unless terminated prior to that date, pursuant to the Partnership agreement or
law.
Pursuant to the Partnership agreement, the Partnership is authorized to sell
25,000 Units at $1,000 per Unit ("Units") of which 9,834 Units in the amount of
$9,795,380, net of discounts of $38,620 for volume purchases, had been sold as
of December 31, 1997. The General Partner has a 1% interest in operating profits
and losses, taxable income and loss and in cash available for distribution from
the Partnership. The limited partners will be allocated the remaining 99% of
these items 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), 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 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 Investees will be readily marketable. Additionally there can be no
assurance that the Partnership will be able to dispose of its interests in the
Investees. 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
Investee 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 partner or managing member of the Investees, there can be no
assurance that Partnership operations will be profitable or that the anticipated
housing tax credits will be available to limited partners.
Method of Accounting For Investments in Limited Partnerships
- ------------------------------------------------------------
The Partnership accounts for its investments using the equity method of
accounting, whereby the Partnership adjusts its investment balance for its share
of the Investees' results of operations and for any distributions received. The
accounting policies of the Investees are consistent with the Partnership. Costs
incurred by the Partnership in acquiring the investments are capitalized as part
of the investment and amortized over 30 years (see Note 3).
Losses from Investees allocated to the Partnership will not be 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. Cash
equivalents consist of a money market account and funds in escrow from sale of
units.
Concentration of Credit Risk
- ----------------------------
As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership maintained cash balances at certain
financial institutions in excess of the federally insured maximum.
Offering Expenses
- -----------------
Offering expenses consist of underwriting commissions, legal fees, printing,
filing and recordation fees, and other costs incurred in connection with the
selling of limited partnership interests in the Partnership. The General Partner
is obligated to pay all offering and organization costs in excess of 14.5%
(including sales commissions) of the total offering proceeds. Offering expenses
are reflected as a reduction of limited partners' capital. Through December 31,
1997, the Partnership incurred offering expenses and selling expenses of
$607,044 and $650,460, respectively.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
- --------------------------------------------------------------
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 is computed by dividing the limited partners'
share of net loss by the weighted number of limited partner units outstanding
during the period.
NOTE 2 - LOANS RECEIVABLE
- -------------------------
Loans receivable represent amounts loaned by the Partnership to certain
Investees in which the Partnership may invest. These loans will be applied
against the first capital contribution due if the Partnership ultimately invests
in such entities. In the event that the Partnership does not invest in such
entities, the loans are to be repaid with interest at a rate which is equal to
the rate charged to the holder (8.75% at December 31, 1997). Loans receivable
with a balance of $778,894 at December 31, 1997 were collectible from two
limited partnerships, one of which was acquired in 1998, and one of which is in
negotiations to be acquired (see Note 7). Loans receivable with a balance of
$100,000 at December 31, 1997 were collectible from one limited partnership and
are to be repaid to the Partnership in 1998.
NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS AND LIMITED LIABILITY CORPORATIONS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership had acquired interests in two
Investees, each of which owns one apartment complex consisting of an aggregate
of 48 apartment units. As of December 31, 1997, construction or rehabilitation
of the apartment complexes had been partially completed. The respective general
or managing partners of the Investees manage the day to day operations of the
entities. Significant Investee business decisions require approval from the
Partnership. The Partnership, as a limited partner or investor member, is
generally entitled to 99%, as specified in the partnership or limited liability
corporation agreements, of the operating profits and losses of the Investees
upon its acquisition of such investments.
The Partnership's investment in the limited partnership and limited liability
corporation as shown in the accompanying balance sheet as of December 31, 1997
is approximately $1,559,000 greater than the Partnership's equity as shown in
the Investees' financial statements. This difference is primarily due to
acquisition costs related to the acquisition of the investments that have been
capitalized in the Partnership's investment account and are being amortized over
30 years and certain capital contributions accrued but not paid (see Note 4).

Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is obligated to
the General Partner or its affiliates for the following items:
Acquisition fees of up to 7% of the gross proceeds from the sale of
Partnership Units as compensation for services rendered in connection
with the acquisition of Investees. Through December 31, 1997, the
Partnership incurred acquisition fees of $664,500. Accumulated

Reimbursement of costs incurred by an affiliate of the General Partner

the Partnership incurred acquisition costs of $36,518, which have been
included in investments in limited partnerships and limited liability
corporations. Accumulated amortization was insignificant for 1997.
An annual asset management fee equal to the greater amount of (i)
$2,000 for each apartment complex, or (ii) 0.275% of gross proceeds. In
either case, the fee will be decreased or increased annually based on
changes to the Consumer Price Index. However, in no event will the
maximum amount exceed 0.2% of the invested assets (defined as the
Partnership's capital contributions plus its allocable percentage of
the mortgage debt encumbering the apartment complexes) of the limited
partnerships. As of December 31, 1997, asset management fees have not
been incurred.
A subordinated disposition fee in an amount equal to 1% of the sales
price of real estate sold. Payment of this fee is subordinated to the

NOTE 5 - INCOME TAXES

of the Partnership.
NOTE 6 - SUBSCRIPTIONS AND NOTES RECEIVABLE
- -------------------------------------------
As of December 31, 1997, the Partnership had received subscriptions for 9,834
units which included subscriptions receivable of $631,885 and promissory notes
of $351,150. Limited partners who subscribed for ten or more units of limited

cash upon subscription and the remaining 50% by the delivery of a promissory
note payable, together with interest at the rate of 5.5% per annum, due no later
than 13 months after the subscription date. Since the promissory notes had not
