                            (a limited partnership)
                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               September 30, 1995
                                  (Unaudited)
 
A. General

   These financial statements have been prepared without audit. In the opinion
of Prudential-Bache Properties, Inc. (``Managing General Partner'') (``PBP''),
the financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of
Prudential-Bache/Watson & Taylor, Ltd.-4 (the ``Partnership'') as of September
30, 1995, the results of its operations for the nine and three months ended
September 30, 1995 and 1994 and its cash flows for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 and 1994. However, the operating results for the interim
periods may not be indicative of the results expected for the full year.
 
   Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been omitted. It is suggested that these financial statements be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Partnership's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 1994.
 
B. Related Parties
 
   PBP and its affiliates perform services for the Partnership which include,
but are not limited to: accounting and financial management; transfer and
assignment functions; asset management (including direct management of the
Partnership's unimproved properties); investor communications; printing and
other administrative services. PBP and its affiliates receive reimbursements for
costs incurred in connection with these services, the amount of which is limited
by the provisions of the Partnership Agreement. The costs and expenses incurred
on behalf of the Partnership which are reimbursable to PBP and its affiliates
for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 were approximately $96,000
and $63,000, respectively, and for the three months ended September 30, 1995 and
1994 were approximately $46,000 and $22,000, respectively.
 
   Affiliates of Messrs. Watson and Taylor, the individual General Partners,
also perform certain administrative and monitoring functions on behalf of the
Partnership. The Partnership recorded $25,850 relating to the reimbursement for
these services for the period from November 1988 through December 1993 during
the three months ended March 31, 1994. Beginning January 1, 1994, the
Partnership has incurred $1,250 quarterly for the continuing reimbursement of
these services.
 
   Prudential Securities Incorporated (``PSI''), an affiliate of PBP, owns 391
depositary units at September 30, 1995.
 
C. Contingencies
 
   There are no material legal proceedings pending by or against the Partnership
or its properties.
 
   By order of the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation dated April 14,
1994, a number of purported class actions then pending in various federal
district courts were transferred to a single judge of the United States District
Court for the Southern District of New York and consolidated for pretrial
proceedings under the caption In re Prudential Securities Incorporated Limited
Partnerships Litigation (MDL Docket 1005). On June 8, 1994, plaintiffs in the
transferred cases filed a complaint that consolidated the previously filed
complaints and named as defendants, among others, PSI, certain of its present
and former employees and PBP. The Partnership is not named a defendant in the
consolidated complaint, but the name of the Partnership is listed as being among
the limited partnerships at issue in the case. The consolidated complaint
alleges violations of the federal and New Jersey Racketeer Influenced and
Corrupt Organizations Act (``RICO'') statutes, fraud, negligent
misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duties, breach of third-party beneficiary
contracts, and breach of implied covenants in connection with the marketing and
sales of limited partnership interests. Plaintiffs request relief in the nature
of rescission of the purchase of securities and recovery of all consideration
and expenses in connection therewith, as well as compensation for lost use of
money invested less cash distributions; compensatory damages; consequential
damages; treble damages for
                                       5
 <PAGE>
<PAGE>
defendants' RICO violations (both federal and New Jersey); general damages for
all injuries resulting from negligence, fraud, breaches of contract, and
breaches of duty in an amount to be determined at trial; disgorgement and
restitution of all earnings, profits, benefits and compensation received by
defendants as a result of their unlawful acts; costs and disbursements of the
action; reasonable attorneys' fees; and such other and further relief as the
court deems just and proper.
 
   PSI and PBP, along with various other defendants, filed a motion to dismiss
the consolidated complaint on December 20, 1994. By order dated August 29, 1995,
the transferee court granted plaintiffs' motion for temporary class
certification, preliminarily approved a settlement entered into between
plaintiffs and PBP and PSI, scheduled a fairness hearing for November 17, 1995,
approved the form and content of notice to be provided to class members and
directed that it be provided to class members. The full amount due under the
settlement agreement has been paid by PSI.
 
D. Sale of Land
 
   The Partnership has entered into a contract with a third party for the sale
of unimproved property located in Olathe, Kansas for a sales price of $725,000.
It is currently anticipated that the sale will close during the first quarter of
1996, subject to certain contingencies.
 
E. Subsequent Event
 
   In November 1995, distributions of approximately $146,000 and $13,000 were
paid to the Unitholders and the General Partners, respectively, for the quarter
ended September 30, 1995.

      ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                           AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
   The Partnership owns and operates five commercial properties consisting of
office warehouse/mini-warehouse and retail facilities as well as seven
unimproved properties. During the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the
Partnership's cash and cash equivalents increased by approximately $181,000
primarily due to cash flow from property operations in excess of capital
expenditures and distributions to the partners.
 
   Distributions of approximately $146,000 and $13,000 were paid in November
1995 to the Unitholders and General Partners, respectively, for the quarter
ended September 30, 1995. These distributions were funded from property
operations.
 
   The Partnership's ability to make future distributions and the amount of the
distributions that may be made will be affected not only by the amount of cash
generated by the Partnership from the operations of its properties, but also by
the amount expended for property improvements and the amount set aside for
anticipated property improvements.
 
   The elimination of an exit ramp that provided access to the Big A property
has had a negative impact on operations. A second phase of this highway project
will have a further negative impact on the property. This phase will greatly
reduce access to the property and take a portion of the Big A site as well as
one or more buildings. The Partnership is continuing to explore the options
available to mitigate the negative impact of these activities on rental revenue.
 
Results of Operations
 
   Occupancies at the improved properties at September 30, 1995 and 1994 were as
follows:

             (Occupancies are calculated by dividing occupied units by total units).
</TABLE>
 
   Net income increased by approximately $11,000 and decreased by approximately
$3,000 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to the
same periods in the prior year due to the reasons discussed below.
 
   Rental income increased by approximately $101,000 and $28,000 for the nine
and three months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to the same periods in
1994. Rental income increased at all of the properties, except Dale City which
remained stable. Rental income increased at the Airport South Business Center,
Big A Mini-Warehouse and Downtown Business Center primarily due to higher
average occupancies and at the Towneast Business Center primarily due to higher
commercial space rental rates.
 
   Other income decreased by approximately $20,000 and $1,000 for the nine and
three months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to the same periods in 1994
primarily due to the decreasing number of older leases that include charges to
recover operating expenses.
 
   Real estate taxes decreased by approximately $16,000 and $2,000 for the nine
and three months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to the same periods in
1994 due to lower reassessed property values.
 
   General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $109,000 and
54,000 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to the
same periods in 1994 due to increases in costs of administering the Partnership
and increased professional fees. The nine month increase was also
                                       7
 <PAGE>
<PAGE>
caused by the Partnership being effectually reimbursed for previously expensed
general and administrative costs in March 1994, which decreased expenses in that
period.
 
   Property operating expenses increased by approximately $3,000 and decreased
by approximately $17,000 for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1995
as compared to the same periods in 1994. The nine month increase is due to
increases in utilities, payroll expense and management fees offset by decreases
in repairs and maintenance expenses and leasing commissions. The three month
decrease is primarily the result of decreases in repairs and maintenance
expenses and leasing commissions.
 
   Depreciation and amortization decreased by approximately $26,000 and $3,000
for the nine and three months ended September 30, 1995 as compared to the same
periods in 1994 due to a significant amount of older assets becoming fully
depreciated.
