PART I


ITEM 1.                      BUSINESS

Capital Realty Investors, Ltd. (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership which was formed under the District of Columbia Limited Partnership Act on June 1, 1981.  On December 31, 1981, the Partnership commenced offering 30,000 units of limited partner interest through a public offering managed by Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Incorporated.  The Partnership closed the offering on December 31, 1982, at which time 24,837 units of limited partner interest had become subscribed.  As of December 31, 2011, 90 units of limited partner interest had been abandoned.

The General Partners of the Partnership are C.R.I., Inc. (“CRI”), which is the Managing General Partner, current and former shareholders of CRI and Rockville Pike Associates, Ltd., a Maryland limited partnership which includes the shareholders of CRI and certain former officers and employees of CRI.  Services for the Partnership are performed by CRI, as the Partnership has no employees of its own.

The Partnership was formed to invest in real estate, which is the Partnership's principal business activity, by acquiring and holding limited partner interests in limited partnerships (“Local Partnerships”).  The Partnership originally made investments in eighteen Local Partnerships.  As of December 31, 2011, the Partnership retained investments in six Local Partnerships.  The original objectives of these investments, not necessarily in order of importance, were to:

 
(i)
 
preserve and protect the Partnership's capital;
 
(ii)
 
provide, during the early years of the Partnership's operations, current tax benefits to the partners in the form of tax losses which the partners could use to offset income from other sources;
 
(iii)
 
provide capital appreciation through increases in the value of the Partnership's investments and increased equity through periodic payments on the indebtedness of the apartment complexes; and
 
(iv)
 
provide cash distributions from sale or refinancing of the Partnership's investments and, on a limited basis, from rental operations.

See Part II, Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, for a discussion of factors affecting the original investment objectives.

The Local Partnerships in which the Partnership invested were organized by private developers who acquired the sites, or options thereon, applied for mortgage financing and applicable mortgage insurance and/or subsidies, and who generally remain as the local general partners in the Local Partnerships.  In most cases, the local general partners of the Local Partnerships retain responsibility for maintaining, operating and managing the projects.  However, under certain circumstances, the Local Partnerships’ partnership agreements permit removal of the local general partner and replacement with another local general partner or with an affiliate of the Partnership's Managing General Partner.

As a result of its investment in the Local Partnerships, the Partnership became the principal limited partner in eighteen (six remaining as of December 31, 2011) Local Partnerships.  As a limited partner, the Partnership's legal liability for obligations of the Local Partnerships is limited to its investment.  In most cases, an affiliate of the Managing General Partner of the Partnership is also a general partner of the Local Partnerships.  The local general partners and affiliates of the Managing General Partner may operate other apartment complexes which may be in competition for eligible tenants with the Local Partnerships' apartment complexes.

PART II
 
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
  CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Capital Realty Investors, Ltd.’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section is based on the financial statements, and contains information that may be considered forward looking, including statements regarding the effect of governmental regulations.  Actual results may differ materially from those described in the forward looking statements and will be affected by a variety of factors including national and local economic conditions, the general level of interest rates, governmental regulations affecting the Partnership and interpretations of those regulations, the competitive environment in which the Partnership operates, and the availability of working capital.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Partnership has disclosed its selection and application of significant accounting policies in Note 1 of the notes to financial statements included in this annual report on Form 10-K at December 31, 2011.  The Partnership accounts for its investments in partnerships (Local Partnerships) by the equity method because the Partnership is a limited partner in the Local Partnerships.  As such the Partnership has no control over the selection and application of accounting policies, or the use of estimates, by the Local Partnerships.  Environmental and operational trends, events and uncertainties that might affect the properties owned by the Local Partnerships would not necessarily have a significant impact on the Partnership’s application of the equity method of accounting, since the equity method has been suspended for four Local Partnerships which have cumulative losses in excess of the amount of the Partnership’s investments in those Local Partnerships.  The Partnership reviews property assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable.  Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If an asset was determined to be impaired, its basis would be adjusted to fair value through the recognition of an impairment loss.

GAAP provides guidance on when a company should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable interest entity (VIE) in its financial statements and when it should disclose information about its relationship with a VIE.  Generally, a variable interest entity, or VIE, is an entity with one or more of the following characteristics:  (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (b) as a group the holders of the equity investment at risk lack (i) the ability to make decisions about an entity’s activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (c) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportional to their economic interests and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights.  The primary beneficiary of a VIE is generally the entity that will receive a majority of the VIE’s expected losses, receive a majority of a VIE’s expected residual returns, or both.

The Partnership does not consolidate the Partnership's interests in these VIE’s under this guidance, as it is not considered to be the primary beneficiary.  The Partnership currently records the amount of its investment in these partnerships as an asset on its balance sheet, recognizes its share of partnership income or losses in the statements of operations, and discloses how it accounts for material types of these investments in its financial statements. 

The Partnership’s balance in investment in Local Partnerships represents its maximum exposure to loss.  The Partnership’s exposure to loss on these partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying properties as well as the strength of the local general partners.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
  CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Continued

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance addressing the accounting for and disclosure requirements of events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued. The Partnership adopted the guidance as of June 30, 2009 as it was effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption did not have a significant impact on the subsequent events that the Partnership reports, either through recognition or disclosure, in the consolidated financial statements. In February 2010, however, the FASB amended its guidance on subsequent events to remove the requirement to disclose the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events, alleviating conflicts with current SEC guidance. This amendment was effective immediately and therefore the Partnership did not include the disclosure in this Form 10-K.
 
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an amendment to the accounting and disclosure requirements for the consolidation of VIEs. The amended guidance modifies the consolidation model to one based on control and economics, and replaces the current quantitative primary beneficiary analysis with a qualitative analysis. The primary beneficiary of a VIE will be the entity that has (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If multiple unrelated parties share such power, as defined, no party will be required to consolidate the VIE. Further, the amended guidance requires continual reconsideration of the primary beneficiary of a VIE and adds an additional reconsideration event for determination of whether an entity is a VIE. Additionally, the amendment requires enhanced and expanded disclosures around VIEs. This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2010 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s financial statements.

General

The Partnership has invested, through Local Partnerships, primarily in federal or state government-assisted apartment complexes intended to provide housing to the elderly and/or to low and moderate income tenants.  In conjunction with such governmental assistance, which may include federal and/or state financing at below-market interest rates and rental subsidies, the Local Partnerships agreed to regulatory limitations on (i) cash distributions, (ii) use of the properties, and (iii) sale or refinancing.  These limitations typically were designed to remain in place for the life of the mortgage.

C.R.I., Inc. (the Managing General Partner) continues to evaluate the Partnership’s underlying apartment complexes to develop strategies that maximize the benefits to investors. Numerous variables, including adverse general economic conditions, as well as, Local Partnership agreements and regulatory restrictions impact the ability and timing of effectuating the sale of certain properties owned by the Local Partnerships or the Partnership’s interests in the Local Partnerships.  The Managing General Partner continues to explore strategies that will result in the sale of properties owned by the Local Partnerships or the Partnership’s interests in the Local Partnerships at terms advantageous to the Partnership.  While the Managing General Partner cannot predict the outcome for any particular property at this time, the Managing General Partner will continue to work with the Local Partnerships to develop strategies that maximize the benefits to investors.

Financial Condition/Liquidity

As of December 31, 2011, the Partnership had approximately 1,276 investors who held a total of 24,747 units of limited partner interest which were originally sold for the aggregate amount of $24,747,000. The Partnership originally made investments in eighteen Local Partnerships, of which six remain at December 31, 2011.  The Partnership’s liquidity, with unrestricted cash resources of $2,194,867 as of December 31, 2011, along with anticipated future cash distributions from the Local Partnerships, is expected to be adequate to meet its current and anticipated operating cash needs. As of June __, 2012, there were no material commitments for capital expenditures.

During 2011 and 2010, the Partnership received cash distributions of $51,316 and $59,372, respectively, from the Local Partnerships.

The Partnership closely monitors its cash flow and liquidity position in an effort to ensure that sufficient cash is available for operating requirements.  For the year ended December 31, 2011, existing cash resources and the receipt of distributions from Local Partnerships were adequate to support net cash used in operating activities.  Cash and cash equivalents decreased $357,671 during 2011, primarily due to operating activities.

On July 26, 2010, the Partnership paid a cash distribution of $742,410 ($30 per Unit) to the Limited Partners who were holders of record as of July 1, 2010.

Results of Operations

2011 versus 2010

The Partnership recognized a net income of $852,463 for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to a net income of $296,978 for the year ended 2010, primarily due to increases in share of income from partnerships and a decrease in general and administrative expenses.  Share of income from partnerships increased primarily due to higher share of income from one Local Partnership as well as due to lower advances which were reduced to zero by the Partnership as a result of losses at the Local Partnership level (see note 2.b. in notes to financial statements for additional information).

For financial reporting purposes, the Partnership, as a limited partner in the Local Partnerships, does not record losses from the Local Partnerships in excess of its investment to the extent that the Partnership has no further obligation to advance funds or provide financing to the Local Partnerships.  As a result, the Partnership’s share of income from partnerships for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, did not include losses of $115,426 and $64,462, respectively.  Distributions of $7,219 were received from one Local Partnership during both 2011 and 2010, for which the Partnership’s carrying value is zero (equity method suspended), were recorded as increases in the Partnership’s share of income from partnerships in the year received.

Inflation

Inflation allows for increases in rental rates, usually offsetting any higher operating and replacement costs.  Furthermore, inflation generally does not impact the fixed rate long-term financing under which the Partnership’s real property investments were purchased.  Future inflation could allow for appreciated values of the Local Partnerships’ properties over an extended period of time as rental revenues and replacement values gradually increase.

The combined rental revenues of the Partnership’s remaining properties for the three years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 follow.  Combined rental revenue amounts have been adjusted to reflect property sales and interests transferred in prior years.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS
  ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
 
On December 22, 2010, the Partnership dismissed Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”) as the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm.  The decision to change accountants was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Partnership. 

Effective as of December 23, 2010, the Audit Committee of the Partnership engaged Reznick Group, P.C. (“Reznick”) as the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm.  The decision to engage Reznick was approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Partnership as of such date. 

During the interim period ended September 30, 2010, and through December 22, 2010, neither the Partnership nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with Reznick regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Partnership’s financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions to Item 304 of Regulation S-K) or a reportable event (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

During the interim period ended September 30, 2010 and through December 22, 2010, there were no disagreements with Grant Thornton on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Grant Thornton, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the financial statements for such years. During the interim period ended September 30, 2010 and through December 22, 2010, there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.  Grant Thornton has furnished a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission that was included as an exhibit to the Partnership’s Form 8-K, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 28, 2010, stating its agreement with the statements concerning Grant Thornton made in this Item 9.

 

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
   
 
As of the end of the periods covered by this report, representatives of the General Partner, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Partnership’s “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in the Partnership’s periodic report filings with SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, consistent with the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

II-6
 
 

 


PART II
 

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES - Continued
   

The General Partner must rely on the Local Limited Partnerships to provide the Partnership with certain information necessary to the timely filing of the Partnership’s periodic reports. Factors in the accounting at the Local Limited Partnerships have caused delays in the provision of such information during past reporting periods, and resulted in the Partnership’s inability to file its periodic reports in a timely manner.

Once the Partnership has received the necessary information from the Local Limited Partnerships, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer believe that the material information required to be disclosed in the Partnership’s periodic report filings with SEC is effectively recorded, processed, summarized and reported, albeit not in a timely manner. Going forward, the Partnership will use the means reasonably within its power to impose procedures designed to obtain from the Local Limited Partnerships the information necessary to the timely filing of the Partnership’s periodic reports.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The General Partner is responsible for establishing and maintaining for the Partnership adequate internal control over financial reporting as that term is defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f), and for performing an assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. The internal control process, as it is applicable to the Partnership, was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements, and includes those policies and procedures that:

(1)
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Partnership;
(2)
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and that the Partnership’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of the management of the Partnership; and
(3)
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Partnership’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements

 All internal control processes, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those processes determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the reliability of financial statement preparation and presentation. Further, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Representatives of the General Partner assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting, as it is applicable to the Partnership, as of the end of the Partnership’s most recent fiscal year. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on its assessment, the General Partner has concluded that, for the reasons set forth above under “Disclosure controls and procedures,” the internal control over financial reporting, as it is applicable to the Partnership, was not effective as of December 31, 2011.


II-7
 
 

 


PART II


ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES - Continued
   

For purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the term “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in a reporting company’s internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  For the reasons discussed above in this
Item 9A, sub-section (a) under the caption “Disclosure Controls and Procedures,” the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting has not been effective in permitting timely reporting of the Partnership’s financial information.  Accordingly, the management of the Partnership believes that this inability to generate timely reports constitutes a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting.

Changes in internal controls

There were no changes in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2012 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.
 

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION
   

On November, 1, 2011, the mortgage holder for Shallowford Oaks, LSREF2 Chalk 2, LLC, foreclosed on the property and became the new owner of the property pursuant to a non-judicial foreclosure sale under the power of sale clause contained in its law documents.  As a result of the foreclosure all of the assets and liabilities of the Local Partnership were written off as of December 31, 2011. The resulting loss of the foreclosure was $31,263 and is recorded on the Statements of Operations as Loss from foreclosure on Local Partnership.

Certain states may assert claims against the Partnership for failure to withhold and remit state income tax on operating profit or where the sale(s) of property in which the Partnership was invested failed to produce sufficient cash proceeds with which to pay the state tax and/or to pay statutory partnership filing fees.  The Partnership is unable to quantify the amount of such potential claims at this time. The Partnership has consistently advised its Partners that they should consult with their tax advisors as to the necessity of filing non-resident returns in such states with respect to their proportional taxes due.

PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES - Continued

The Partnership has no directors or officers.  The Board of Directors of the Managing General Partner of the Partnership, serving as the Audit Committee, has approved in advance 100% of the fees paid to, and services provided by the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm. Prior to approving the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm providing any non-audit services, the Board of Directors of the Managing General Partner of the Partnership would assess whether the provision of those services would compromise the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm independence.

Grant Thornton was dismissed as the Partnership’s independent registered public accounting firm after the filing of the Partnership’s 10-Q for the third quarter of fiscal year 2010. Reznick was engaged as the Partnership’s new independent registered public accounting firm and performed the fiscal 2010 yearend audit. Reznick provided partnership tax return preparation services for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



The Partners
Capital Realty Investors, Ltd.


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Capital Realty Investors, Ltd. (the Partnership) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related statements of operations, changes in partners’ (deficit) capital, and cash flows for the years then ended.  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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 Capital Realty Investors, Ltd. as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

CAPITAL REALTY INVESTORS, LTD.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.           ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a.           Organization

Capital Realty Investors, Ltd. (the Partnership) was formed under the District of Columbia Limited Partnership Act on June 1, 1981, and shall continue until December 31, 2030, unless sooner dissolved in accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement.  The Partnership was formed to invest in real estate by acquiring and holding limited partner interests in limited partnerships (Local Partnerships) that own and operate federal or state government-assisted properties or properties which provide housing principally to the elderly or to individuals and families of low or moderate income, or conventionally financed apartment properties, located throughout the United States.

The General Partners of the Partnership are C.R.I., Inc. (CRI), which is the Managing General Partner, current and former shareholders of CRI, and Rockville Pike Associates, Ltd., a Maryland limited partnership which includes the shareholders of CRI and certain former officers and employees of CRI.

The Partnership sold 24,837 units at $1,000 per unit of limited partner interest through a public offering.  The offering period was terminated on December 31, 1982.  As of December 31, 2011, 90 units of limited partner interest had been abandoned.

b.           Method of accounting

The financial statements of the Partnership are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

c.           Variable interest entities

GAAP provides guidance on when a company should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable interest entity (VIE) in its financial statements and when it should disclose information about its relationship with a VIE.  Generally, a variable interest entity, or VIE, is an entity with one or more of the following characteristics:  (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support; (b) as a group the holders of the equity investment at risk lack (i) the ability to make decisions about an entity’s activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; or (c) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportional to their economic interests and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve, or are conducted on behalf of, an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights.  The primary beneficiary of a VIE is generally the entity that will receive a majority of the VIE’s expected losses, receive a majority of a VIE’s expected residual returns, or both.

The Partnership does not consolidate the Partnership's interests in these VIE’s under this guidance, as it is not considered to be the primary beneficiary.  The Partnership currently records the amount of its investment in these partnerships as an asset on its balance sheet, recognizes its share of partnership income or losses in the statements of operations, and discloses how it accounts for material types of these investments in its financial statements.

IV-10
 
 

 


CAPITAL REALTY INVESTORS, LTD.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.
ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - Continued

The Partnership’s balance in investment in Local Partnerships represents its maximum exposure to loss.  The Partnership’s exposure to loss on these partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying properties as well as the strength of the local general partners.

d.           Investments in and advances to partnerships

The Partnership’s investment in Local Partnerships is considered to be variable interest entities (VIEs) because the owners of the equity at risk in these entities do not have the power to direct their operations. However, the Partnership is not considered the primary beneficiary of the Local Partnerships since it does not have the power to direct the activities that are considered most significant to the economic performance of these entities.  Therefore, and because the Partnership is a limited partner in the Local Partnerships, the Partnership accounts for the investment in its Local Partnerships using the equity method of accounting.  Under the equity method, the initial investment is recorded at cost, increased or decreased by the Partnership’s share of income or losses, and decreased by distributions received and syndication costs.  The investment balance cannot be reduced below zero.  After the investment account is reduced to zero, receivables due from the Local Partnership are decreased by the Partnership’s share of losses.  Distributions received after the investment account is reduced to zero are recorded as income.

As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Partnership's share of cumulative losses for four of the Local Partnerships exceeded the amount of the Partnership's investments in and advances to those Local Partnerships by $3,356,064 and $4,760,850, respectively.  Since the Partnership has no further obligation to advance funds or provide financing to these Local Partnerships, the excess losses have not been reflected in the accompanying financial statements.  The Partnership’s carrying value is zero and the equity method has been suspended for the following three Local Partnerships as of December 31, 2011: Hillview Terrace, New Sharon Woods and Shallowford Oaks. The Partnership’s carrying value is zero and the equity method has been suspended for the following four Local Partnerships as of December 31, 2010: Hillview Terrace, New Sharon Woods, Shallowford Oaks, and Westwood Village. Distributions of $7,219 received from one Local Partnership during both 2011 and 2010, for which the Partnership’s carrying value is zero (equity method suspended) were recorded as increases in the Partnership’s share of income from partnerships in the year received.

Costs incurred in connection with acquiring these investments have been capitalized and are being amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the properties owned by the Local Partnerships.

e.           Investment in partnerships held for sale

When investments are reclassified to investment in partnerships held for sale, amortization of acquisition fees and property purchase costs are discontinued.  Assets held for sale are recorded at the lower of the carrying amount or expected sales price less costs to sell.

f.           Deferred Costs

Acquisition Fees and Property Purchase Costs incurred for services rendered to acquire the Local Partnerships are amortized over 40 years using the straight-line method, beginning upon commencement of operations of the Local Partnerships.  The Partnership regularly assesses deferred costs for the existence of impairment in conjunction with the assessment of its investment in Local Partnerships. Amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $7,631 and $8,144, respectively.  Estimated amortization expense for each of the ensuing years through December 31, 2016 is $5,401.  One Local Partnership was foreclosed on during 2011.  Therefore, deferred costs of $123,079 and associated accumulated amortization of $91,816 were written off.  This amount is included in Loss of foreclosure of Local Partnership on the Statements of operations.

g.           Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of money market funds, time and demand deposits, and repurchase agreements with original maturities of three months or less.  Interest income is recognized as earned.

h.           Income taxes

The Partnership has elected to be treated as a pass-through entity for income tax purposes and, as such, is not subject to income taxes. Rather, all items of taxable income, deductions and tax credits are passed through to and are reported by its owners on their respective income tax returns. The Partnership’s federal tax status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a partnership. Accordingly, the Partnership is not required to take any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity. The Partnership is required to file and does file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. Accordingly, these financial statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes and the Partnership has no other tax positions which must be considered for disclosure.

i.           Use of estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the Partnership is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

j.           Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Financing Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 
1.
Level 1 Inputs -- quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
 
2.
Level 2 Inputs -- observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
 
3.
Level 3 Inputs -- unobservable inputs.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy.  In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The balance sheet carrying amount for cash and cash equivalents approximates their fair value.

k.           Impairment analysis

The Partnership reviews property assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable.  Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  Impairment for investments in partnerships is determined by review of the performance of the underlying asset and expected proceeds from the sale of the investment.  If an asset were determined to be impaired, its basis would be adjusted to fair value through the recognition of an impairment loss.

l.           Allocation of net income (loss)

Net income (loss) is allocated based on respective partnership interest or units outstanding.  The Partnership has no dilutive interests.

m.           Subsequent events

Events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements were available to be issued must be evaluated for recognition or disclosure. The effects of subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that existed at the balance sheet date are recognized in the accompanying financial statements. Subsequent events which provide evidence about conditions that existed after the balance sheet date require disclosure in the accompanying notes. Management evaluated the activity of the Partnership and concluded that no subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the financial statements or disclosure in the notes to the financial statements.

n.           Recent accounting pronouncements

In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance addressing the accounting for and disclosure requirements of events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued. The Partnership adopted the guidance as of June 30, 2009 as it was effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption did not have a significant impact on the subsequent events that the Partnership reports, either through recognition or disclosure, in the consolidated financial statements. In February 2010, however, the FASB amended its guidance on subsequent events to remove the requirement to disclose the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events, alleviating conflicts with current

SEC guidance. This amendment was effective immediately and therefore the Partnership did not include the disclosure in this Form 10-K.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued an amendment to the accounting and disclosure requirements for the consolidation of VIEs. The amended guidance modifies the consolidation model to one based on control and economics, and replaces the current quantitative primary beneficiary analysis with a qualitative analysis. The primary beneficiary of a VIE will be the entity that has (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If multiple unrelated parties share such power, as defined, no party will be required to consolidate the VIE. Further, the amended guidance requires continual reconsideration of the primary beneficiary of a VIE and adds an additional reconsideration event for determination of whether an entity is a VIE. Additionally, the amendment requires enhanced and expanded disclosures around VIEs. This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2010 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s financial statements.

2.           INVESTMENTS IN AND ADVANCES TO PARTNERSHIPS

a.           Interests in profits, losses and cash distributions made by Local Partnerships

The Partnership has a 94.99% to 98.98% interest in profits, losses and cash distributions (as restricted by various federal and state housing agencies) (collectively, the “Agencies”) of each Local Partnership.  An affiliate of the Managing General Partner of the Partnership is also a general partner of each Local Partnership.  As stipulated by the Local Partnerships’ partnership agreements, the Local Partnerships are required to make annual cash distributions from surplus cash flow, if any.  During 2011 and 2010, the Partnership received cash distributions from rental operations of the Local Partnerships of $51,316 and $59,372, respectively.  As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, two and three of the Local Partnerships had aggregate surplus cash, as defined by their respective regulatory Agencies, in the amounts of $1,238,617 and $1,043,598, respectively, which may be available for distribution in accordance with their respective regulatory Agencies' regulations.

The cash distributions to the Partnership from the operations of the Local Partnerships may be limited by the Agencies' regulations.  Such regulations limit annual cash distributions to a percentage of the owner's equity investment in a rental property.  Funds in excess of those which may be distributed to owners are generally required to be placed in a residual receipts account held by the governing state or federal agency for the benefit of the property.  In addition, local general partners have the authority to withhold funds if needed for property repairs, improvements, or other property needs.

Upon sale or refinancing of a property owned by a Local Partnership, or upon the liquidation of a
Local Partnership, the proceeds from such sale, refinancing or liquidation shall be distributed in accordance with the respective provisions of each Local Partnership's partnership agreement.  In accordance with such provisions, the Partnership would receive from such proceeds its respective percentage interest of any remaining proceeds, after payment of (i) all debts and liabilities of the Local Partnership and certain other items, (ii) the Partnership's capital contributions plus certain specified amounts as outlined in each partnership agreement, and (iii) certain special distributions to general partners and related entities of the Local Partnership.

b.           Advance to Local Partnership

As of both December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Partnership had advanced funds, including accrued interest, totaling $1,008,738 and $980,348, respectively, to ARA Associates - Shangri-La Ltd. (Shallowford Oaks).    On April 15, 2010, the Partnership advanced $100,000 to Shallowford Oaks for operating expenses. The Partnership accrued $28,390 and $51,315 to interest receivables on the advances to Shallowford Oaks as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  For financial reporting purposes, these loans have been reduced to zero by the Partnership as a result of losses at the Local Partnership level during prior years.  As a result, the amount advanced and accrued interest has been reflected as a reduction of share of income from partnerships.

As of January 2011, the Shallowford Oaks property was unable to meet its debt service requirements and was therefore in default with regards to the mortgage encumbering the property. In February 2011, the mortgage lender for the mortgage encumbering the Shallowford Oaks property sent notice accelerating the debt.   On November, 1, 2011, the mortgage holder for Shallowford Oaks, LSREF2 Chalk 2, LLC, foreclosed on the property and became the new owner of the property pursuant to a non-judicial foreclosure sale under the power of sale clause contained in its law documents.  As a result of the foreclosure all of the assets and liabilities of the Local Partnership were written off as of December 31, 2011. The resulting loss of the foreclosure was $31,263 and is recorded on the Statements of Operations as Loss from foreclosure on Local Partnership.  The loss is a result of writing off the deferred costs associated with the investment in the Local Partnership.

c.           Property matters

Baltic Plaza

On December 19, 2002, the Local Partnership which owned the Baltic Plaza apartments sold the property. Cash proceeds received by the Partnership totaled $2,053,358.  As part of the consideration, the Local Partnership took back a 30-year purchase money note in the principal amount of $2,300,000, collateralized by the partnership interests of the general partner of the maker/purchaser.  The Local Partnership assigned the purchase money note to an escrow for the benefit of its partners (with CRI serving as escrow agent), so that the Local Partnership entity could be dissolved.  The purchase money note bears interest at 4.6% compounded annually, and requires a minimum annual payment equal to 50% of the maker/purchaser’s annual audited cash flow, as defined, with the balance of unpaid principal, if any, plus accrued interest, due and payable on December 31, 2032.  As of December 31, 2011, no payments of principal or interest have been received on this purchase money note.  The Partnership’s 98% beneficial interest in this purchase money note is reflected in the accompanying balance sheets at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, at its original principal balance of $2,300,000 plus estimated accrued but unpaid interest, all discounted to $619,000 to provide for an effective interest rate commensurate with the investment risk.  The resulting discounted amount has been fully reserved due to uncertainty of collection of the purchase money note and related interest.

d.           Summarized financial information

Combined balance sheets and combined statements of operations for the six Local Partnerships in which the Partnership is invested as of December 31, 2011, follow.  The information is presented separately for two Local Partnerships which have investment basis (equity method), and for four Local Partnerships for which the Partnership’s carrying value is zero (equity method suspended).

Reconciliation of the Local Partnerships' financial statement
net income to taxable income

For federal income tax purposes, the Local Partnerships report on a basis whereby:  (i) certain revenue and the related assets are recorded when received rather than when earned; (ii) certain costs are expensed when paid or incurred rather than capitalized and amortized over the period of benefit; and (iii) a shorter life is used to compute depreciation on the property as permitted by the Internal Revenue Code and the underlying regulations.  These returns are subject to examination and, therefore, possible adjustment by the IRS.

In accordance with the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is obligated to pay the Managing General Partner an annual incentive management fee (Management Fee) after all other expenses of the Partnership are paid.  The amount of the Management Fee shall be equal to 0.25% of invested assets, as defined in the Partnership Agreement, and shall be payable from the Partnership's cash available for distribution, as defined in the Partnership Agreement, as of the end of each calendar year, as follows:

 
(i)
 
First, on a monthly basis as an operating expense before any distributions to limited partners in an annual amount equal to $95,208; and

 
(ii)
 
Second, after distributions to the limited partners in the amount of one percent of the gross proceeds of the offering, the balance of such 0.25% of invested assets.

(i)
 
to the payment of debts and liabilities of the Partnership (including all expenses of the Partnership incident to the sale or refinancing) other than loans or other debts and liabilities of the Partnership to any partner or any affiliate; such debts and liabilities, in the case of a non-liquidating distribution, to be only those which are then required to be paid or, in the judgment of the Managing General Partner, required to be provided for;
 
(ii)
 
to the establishment of any reserves which the Managing General Partner deems reasonably necessary for contingent, unmatured or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Partnership;

thereafter, for their services to the Partnership, in equal shares to certain general partners (or their designees), whether or not any is then a general partner, an aggregate fee of one percent of the gross proceeds resulting from (A) such sale (if the proceeds are from a sale rather than a refinancing) and (B) any prior sales from which such one percent fee was not paid to the General Partners or their designees; and,
 
(vii)

As defined in the Partnership Agreement, after the payment of the distributions described in the previous paragraph, after the establishment of any reserves deemed necessary by the Managing General Partner and after payment of the Management Fee, the Partnership had no remaining cash available for distribution for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.  The Managing General Partner currently intends to retain all of the Partnership's remaining undistributed cash for operating cash reserves.


5.         RECONCILIATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP'S FINANCIAL STATEMENT
    NET (LOSS) INCOME TO TAXABLE INCOME

For federal income tax purposes, the Partnership reports on a basis whereby:  (i) certain expenses are amortized rather than expensed when incurred; (ii) certain costs are amortized over a shorter period for tax purposes, as permitted by the Internal Revenue Code and underlying regulations, and (iii) certain costs are amortized over a longer period for tax purposes.  The Partnership records its share of income or losses from its investments in limited partnerships for federal income tax purposes as reported on the Local Partnerships' federal income tax returns (see Note 2.f.), including losses in excess of related investment amounts.  These returns are subject to examination and, therefore, possible adjustment by the IRS.
