INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
 
To The Partners
SENECA FALLS EAST APARTMENTS COMPANY II, L.P.
East Syracuse, New York
 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Seneca Falls East Apartments Company II, L.P. (a Limited Partnership) as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related statements of income, partners' capital and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the General Partners. 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 audits 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 the partners, 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 Seneca Falls East Apartments Company II, L.P. as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

(A LIMITED PARTNERSHIP)
CASE NO: 37-050-161505050
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For The Years Ended December 31, 2006 and 2005
 
 
Note 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Nature of Business
 
Seneca Falls East Apartments Company II, L.P. was formed as a Limited Partnership in November 1997 to purchase, renovate and operate Seneca Falls East Apartments, a low and moderate-income housing project in Seneca Falls, New York. The apartments (32-units) were available for lease in November 1997.
 
Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the General Partners 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 differ from those estimates.
 
Method of Accounting
 
The accrual method of accounting is used for financial statement purposes.
 
Receivables
 
The Partnership considers receivables to be fully collectible; accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts is required. If amounts become uncollectible, they will be charged to operations when that determination is made.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Depreciation of the buildings is provided by the straight-line method over estimated useful life of 40 years. Depreciation of the equipment and fixtures is provided for by the double declining balance method over the estimated useful lives of 5 to 7 years. Depreciation expense for 2006 and 2005 was $35,582 and $40,411, respectively.
 
Rental Income
 
Rental income is recognized as rentals become due. Rental payments received in advance are deferred until earned. All leases between the Partnership and the tenants of the property are operating leases.

Note 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
 
Income Taxes
 
Since a partnership is not subject to income taxes, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements. The taxable income or loss of the Partnership, however, is includable in the individual income tax returns of its respective partners.
 
Advertising Costs
 
Advertising costs, except for costs associated with direct-response advertising, are charged to operations when incurred. The costs of direct-response advertising are capitalized and amortized over the period during which future benefits are expected to be received.
 
Note 2. RESTRICTED DEPOSITS AND FUNDED RESERVES
 
Tenant security deposits are held in a separate bank account in the name of the project. Interest earned on such deposits is credited to the individual tenants.
 
Restricted deposits and funded reserves are cash deposits, which have been placed into escrow accounts, and these deposits are not available for general business purposes.
 
All cash deposits are maintained in several banks located in New York State, which do not exceed and are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits of $100,000.
 
Note 3. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Note 9. CURRENT VULNERABILITY DUE TO CERTAIN CONCENTRATIONS
 
The Partnership's sole asset is a 32-unit apartment project. The Partnership's operations are concentrated in the multi-family real estate market. In addition, the Partnership operates in a heavily regulated environment. The operations of the project are subject to the administrative directives, rules and regulations of Federal, State, and local regulatory agencies. Such administrative directives, rules, and regulations are subject to change by an act of Congress or an administrative change mandated by Federal, State, and local regulatory agencies. Such changes may occur with little notice or inadequate funding to pay for the related cost, including the additional burden to comply with a change.
 
 
Note 10. CONTINGENCY
 
The Partnership's low-income housing credits are contingent on its ability to maintain compliance with applicable sections of Internal Revenue Code Section 42. Failure to maintain compliance with occupant eligibility, and/or unit gross rent or to correct noncompliance within a specified time period could result in the recapture of tax credits previously taken plus interest. In addition, such potential noncompliance may require and adjustment to the contributed capital by the Limited Partners.
