ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The partnership offered limited partnership units for sale between June 1987 and
June 1988. 14.5% of the $4.135 million raised through sale of limited
partnership units was used to pay commissions to brokers and to reimburse the
General Partner for offering costs incurred. Approximately $3 million of the
remaining funds were used to acquire sites and build three restaurants. In
February of 1992, approximately $442,000 raised during the offering but not
required to acquire sites and build restaurants was distributed to the limited
partners.
The three restaurants leased to Del Taco make up almost all of the income
producing assets of the partnership. Therefore, the business of the partnership
is almost entirely dependent on the success of the Del Taco trade name
restaurants that lease the properties. The success of the restaurants is
dependent on a large variety of factors, including, but not limited to, consumer
demand and preference for fast food, in general, and for Mexican-American food
in particular.
Results of Operations
The partnership owns three properties that are under long-term lease to Del Taco
for restaurant operations (Del Taco, in turn, has sub-leased one of the
restaurants to a Del Taco franchisee).

-------- -------- --------
Total $401,101 $398,071 $327,956
======== ======== ========
The partnership receives rental revenues equal to 12 percent of gross sales from
the restaurants. The partnership earned rental revenue of $401,101 during the
year ended December 31, 1999, which represents an increase of $3,030 from 1998.
The increase in rental revenue was caused primarily by an increase in
supplemental rent at the restaurants under lease.
The following table breaks down general and administrative expenses by type of
expense:
PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL GENERAL & ADMIN. EXPENSE
Year Ended December 31,
1999 1998 1997
------ ------ ------
Accounting fees 65.78% 64.94% 64.37%

====== ====== ======
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1998 and 1997 amounts in the
table above to conform to the current year presentation.
General and administrative costs increased from 1998 to 1999 due to increased
costs for accounting and income tax return preparation.
Net income increased by $3,986 from 1998 to 1999 due to the increase in revenues
of $3,798 and decrease in depreciation expense of $367, which was partially
offset by the $179 increase in general and administrative expenses.
On May 19, 1998, the special limited partner resigned. Consistent with the
partnership agreement, the General Partner assumed the duties and
responsibilities of the special limited partner.

[ARTHUR ANDERSEN LETTERHEAD]
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Partners of
Del Taco Income Properties, IV:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Del Taco Income Properties IV
(a California Limited Partnership) as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the
related statements of income, partners' equity and cash flows for the years then
ended. These financial statements and the schedule referred to below 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 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 from
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 Del Taco Income Properties IV
as of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The schedule in the index of the
financial statements is presented for purposes of complying with the Securities
and Exchange Commission's rules and is not part of the basic financial
statements. This schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied
in our audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly
states in all material respects, the financial data required to be set forth
therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

DEL TACO INCOME PROPERTIES IV
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
THE PARTNERSHIP: Del Taco Income Properties IV (a California limited
partnership) was formed on March 23, 1987, for the purpose of acquiring real
property in California for construction of three Mexican-American restaurants to
be leased under long-term agreements to Del Taco, Inc. (General Partner for
operation under the Del Taco trade name).
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING: The partnership utilizes the accrual method of accounting
for transactions relating to the business of the partnership. Distributions are
made to the General and limited partners in accordance with the provisions of
the partnership agreement (see Note 2).
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT: Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation
is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives which are
20 years for land improvements, 35 years for buildings and improvements, and 10
years for machinery and equipment.
The partnership accounts for property and equipment in accordance with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment
of Long Lived Assets and for Long Lived Assets to be Disposed of." SFAS 121
requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not
be recoverable. In evaluating long-lived assets held for use, an impairment loss
is recognized if the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and
without interest charges) is less than the carrying value of the asset. Once a
determination has been made that an impairment loss should be recognized for
long-lived assets, various assumptions and estimates are used to determine fair
value including, among others, estimated costs of construction and development,
recent sales of comparable properties and the opinions of fair value prepared by
independent real estate appraisers. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are
reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.
INCOME TAXES: No provision has been made for federal or state income taxes on
partnership net income, since the partnership is not subject to income tax.
Partnership income is includable in the taxable income of the individual
partners as required under applicable income tax laws. Certain items, primarily
related to depreciation methods, are accounted for differently for income tax
reporting purposes (see Note 6).

DEL TACO INCOME PROPERTIES IV
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED
DECEMBER 31, 1999
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
NET INCOME PER LIMITED PARTNERSHIP UNIT: Net income per limited partnership unit
is calculated based upon 165,375, 165,415 and 165,415 weighted average units
outstanding in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
USE OF ESTIMATES: The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 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 differ
from those estimates.
NOTE 2 - PARTNERS' EQUITY
Pursuant to the partnership agreement, annual partnership net income or loss is
allocated one percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the limited
partners. Partnership gains from any sale or refinancing will be allocated one
percent to the General Partner and 99 percent to the limited partners until
allocated gains and profits equal losses, distributions and syndication costs,
and until each class of limited partners receive their priority return as
defined in the partnership agreement. Additional gains will be allocated 12
percent to the General Partner and 88 percent to the limited partners.
NOTE 3 - SITE SELECTION AND DEVELOPMENT FEE
Under terms of the partnership agreement, the General Partner is entitled to
receive a fee in an amount equal to five percent of the gross proceeds of the
offering. The fee shall be for services rendered in connection with site
selection and the design and supervision of construction of improvements to
acquired properties. One percent of the gross proceeds of the offering has been
paid to the General Partner. The remaining four percent of this fee shall be
earned at the time the services are rendered, but shall not be paid and shall be
subordinated to the limited partners' interests until all restaurants have
opened and the limited partners have received certain minimum returns on their
investment, as required by the partnership agreement. It is the policy of the
partnership to accrue the site selection and development fee as an obligation to
the General Partner. No fees were earned for such services during 1999, 1998 and
1997.
Effective January 1, 1999, the special limited partners' (who resigned on May
19, 1998) 40 limited partnership units were redeemed by the Partnership.
Pursuant to the Partnership agreement, the redemption was completed at no cost
to the Partnership.

NOTE 4 - LEASING ACTIVITIES
The partnership leases certain properties for operation of restaurants to Del
Taco, Inc. on a triple net basis. The leases are for terms of 32 years
commencing with the completion of the restaurant facility located on each
property and require monthly rentals equal to 12 percent of the gross sales of
the restaurants. Supplemental rent (as defined in the partnership agreement) may
be earned if certain criteria are met. There is no minimum rental under any of
the leases. The partnership had a total of three properties leased to Del Taco
as of December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 (Del Taco, in turn, has subleased one of
the restaurants to a Del Taco franchisee).
The two restaurants operated by Del Taco, for which the partnership is the
lessor, had combined, unaudited sales of $1,701,670, $1,697,771 and $1,523,099
and unaudited net income of $114,916, $107,870 and $76,600 for the years ended
December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Net income by restaurant
includes charges for general and administrative expenses incurred in connection
with supervision of restaurant operations and interest expense. The one
restaurant operated by a Del Taco franchisee, for which the partnership is the
lessor, had unaudited sales of $940,462, $970,008 and $874,554 for the years
ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
The Highland Avenue restaurant in Highland (San Bernardino), California had
unaudited net income of $5,073 and $7,339 and a net loss of $4,311 for the years
ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
NOTE 5 - RELATED PARTIES
The receivable from Del Taco consists of rent accrued for the month of December
1999 as well as supplemental rent. These amounts were collected on January 17,
2000.
The General Partner received $3,611 in distributions relating to its one percent
interest in the partnership for the year ended December 31, 1999.
Del Taco, Inc. serves in the capacity of General Partner in other partnerships
which are engaged in the business of operating restaurants, and three other
partnerships which were formed for the purpose of acquiring real property in
California for construction of Mexican-American restaurants for lease under
long-term agreements to Del Taco, Inc. for operation under the Del Taco trade
name.
