Item 1.  Business

Formation

American  Tax Credit  Properties  II L.P.  ("Registrant"),  a  Delaware  limited
partnership,  was formed on October 26, 1988 to invest  primarily  in  leveraged
low-income  multifamily  residential  complexes (the "Property" or "Properties")
which qualify for the  low-income  tax credit  established  by Section 42 of the
Internal Revenue Code (the "Low-income Tax Credit"),  through the acquisition of
limited partnership equity interests in partnerships (the "Local Partnership" or
"Local Partnerships") that are the owners of the Properties. Registrant invested
in fifty such  Properties  including one Property  which also  qualifies for the
historic  rehabilitation  tax credit in  accordance  with  Section  48(g) of the
Internal  Revenue  Code of 1986  (the  "Historic  Rehabilitation  Tax  Credit").
Registrant considers its activity to constitute a single industry segment.

Richman Tax Credit Properties II L.P. (the "General  Partner"),  a Delaware
limited  partnership,  was formed on October 26,  1988 to act as the  general
partner of  Registrant.  The  general  partner of the  General  Partner is
Richman TaxCredits Inc.  ("Richman Tax Credits"),  a Delaware  corporation
which is wholly-owned by Richard Paul Richman.  Richman Tax Credits is an
affiliate of The Richman Group, Inc.  ("Richman  Group"),  a Delaware
corporation  founded by Richard Paul Richman in 1988.

The  Amendment No. 2 to the  Registration  Statement on Form S-11 was filed with
the  Securities and Exchange  Commission  (the  "Commission")  on April 21, 1989
pursuant  to the  Securities  Act  of  1933  under  Registration  Statement  No.
33-25337,  and was declared  effective on May 9, 1989.  Reference is made to the
prospectus  dated  May  10,  1989,  as  supplemented  by  Supplement  No.  1 and
Supplement No. 2 dated July 25, 1989 and September 18, 1989, respectively, filed
with the Commission  pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act of 1933
(the  "Prospectus").  Pursuant to Rule 12b-23 of the Commission's  General Rules
and  Regulations  promulgated  under the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934,  as
amended (the "Exchange Act"), the description of Registrant's business set forth
under the heading "Investment Objectives and Policies" at pages 47 through 70 of
the Prospectus is incorporated herein by reference.

On June 14, 1989, Registrant commenced,  through Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner &
Smith  Incorporated  ("Merrill  Lynch"),  the offering of up to 100,000 units of
limited partnership interest ("Unit") at $1,000 per Unit. On June 28, 1989, July
31, 1989 and  September  22, 1989,  the  closings for 13,533,  20,560 and 21,653
Units,  respectively,  took place,  amounting  to  aggregate  limited  partners'
capital contributions of $55,746,000.

Competition

Pursuant  to Rule  12b-23 of the  Commission's  General  Rules  and  Regulations
promulgated under the Exchange Act, the description of Registrant's competition,
general risks, tax risks and partnership risks set forth under the heading "Risk
Factors"  at pages 20 through 33 of the  Prospectus  is  incorporated  herein by
reference.

Employees

Registrant  employs no personnel  and incurs no payroll  costs.  All  management
activities of Registrant are conducted by the General  Partner.  An affiliate of
the General Partner employs individuals who perform the management activities of
Registrant.  This entity also performs  similar services for other affiliates of
the General Partner.

Tax Reform Act of 1986, Revenue Act of 1987, Technical and Miscellaneous Revenue
Act  of  1988,  Omnibus  Budget  Reconciliation  Act  of  1989,  Omnibus  Budget
Reconciliation   Act  of  1990,  Tax  Extension  Act  of  1991,  Omnibus  Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1993, Uruguay Round Agreements Act and Taxpayer Relief Act
of 1997 (collectively the "Tax Acts")

Registrant  is organized as a limited  partnership  and is a "pass  through" tax
entity which does not, itself, pay Federal income tax. However,  the partners of
Registrant  who are  subject to Federal  income tax may be  affected  by the Tax
Acts.  Registrant will consider the effect of certain aspects of the Tax Acts on
the partners when making decisions  regarding its  investments.  Registrant does
not anticipate  that the Tax Acts will currently have a material  adverse impact
on Registrant's business operations, capital resources and plans or liquidity.

Item 2.  Properties
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The executive  offices of Registrant and the General  Partner are located at 599
West Putnam Avenue, 3rd floor, Greenwich, Connecticut 06830. Registrant does not
own or lease any  properties.  Registrant  pays no rent;  all charges for leased
space are borne by an affiliate of the General Partner.

Registrant's  primary objective is to provide  Low-income Tax Credits to limited
partners  generally over a ten year period. The relevant state tax credit agency
has allocated each of  Registrant's  Local  Partnerships an amount of Low-income
Tax Credits,  which are generally  available for a ten year period from the year
the Property is placed in service. The required holding period of each Property,
in order to avoid  Low-income  Tax Credit  recapture,  is fifteen years from the
year in which the  Low-income  Tax Credits  commence on the last building of the
Property  (the  "Compliance  Period").   In  addition,   certain  of  the  Local
Partnerships  have entered into  agreements  with the relevant  state tax credit
agencies whereby the Local  Partnerships  must maintain the low-income nature of
the Properties for a period which exceeds the Compliance  Period,  regardless of
any sale of the  Properties  by the  Local  Partnerships  after  the  Compliance
Period.  The  Properties  must  satisfy  various  requirements   including  rent
restrictions   and  tenant  income   limitations  (the  "Low-income  Tax  Credit
Requirements")  in order to  maintain  eligibility  for the  recognition  of the
Low-income  Tax Credit at all times during the Compliance  Period.  Once a Local
Partnership has become eligible for the Low-income Tax Credit,  it may lose such
eligibility  and suffer an event of recapture if its Property fails to remain in
compliance  with the Low-income Tax Credit  Requirements.  Through  December 31,
1997,  none of the Local  Partnerships  have  suffered an event of  recapture of
Low-income Tax Credits.

Although  Registrant  generally owns a 98.9%-99%  limited  partnership  interest
("Local  Partnership  Interest")  in  the  Local  Partnerships,  Registrant  and
American Tax Credit Properties L.P. ("ATCP"), a Delaware limited partnership and
an affiliate of Registrant,  together,  in the  aggregate,  acquired a 99% Local
Partnership  Interest in Santa Juanita Limited  Dividend  Partnership  L.P. (the
"Santa Juanita Local Partnership");  the ownership percentages of Registrant and
ATCP of the Santa Juanita Local Partnership are 64.36% and 34.64%, respectively.
In  addition,  Registrant  and American Tax Credit  Properties  III L.P.  ("ATCP
III"), a Delaware limited partnership and an affiliate of Registrant,  together,
in the  aggregate,  acquired a 99% Local  Partnership  Interest in certain Local
Partnerships as follows:

</TABLE>
Many of the  Local  Partnerships  receive  rental  subsidy  payments,  including
payments  under Section 8 of Title II of the Housing and  Community  Development
Act of 1974 ("Section 8") (see  descriptions of subsidies on pages 7 and 8). The
subsidy  agreements  expire at various  times  during  and after the  Compliance
Periods  of the  Local  Partnerships.  In  October  1997,  Congress  passed  the
Multifamily Assisted Housing and Reform and Affordability Act whereby the United
States  Department  of  Housing  and Urban  Development  ("HUD")  has been given
authority to renew certain  project based  Section 8 contracts  expiring  during
HUD's fiscal year 1998 where  requested by an owner,  for an additional one year
term generally at or below current rent levels,  subject to certain  guidelines.
HUD has additional  programs which, in general,  provide for restructuring rents
and/or mortgages where rents may be adjusted to market levels and mortgage terms
may be adjusted based on the reduction in rents, although there may be instances
in which only rents,  but not mortgages,  are  restructured.  Registrant  cannot
reasonably predict legislative initiatives and governmental budget negotiations,
the outcome of which  could  result in a reduction  in funds  available  for the
various federal and state administered  housing programs including the Section 8
program. Such changes could adversely affect the future net operating income and
debt structure of any or all Local Partnerships currently receiving such subsidy
or  similar  subsidies.  Six  Local  Partnerships  have one or  more  Section 8
contracts, certain of which cover only certain rental units, which are scheduled
to expire in 1998.

Item 3.  Legal Proceedings

Littleton Avenue Community Village,  L.P. (the "Littleton Local Partnership") is
a  defendant  in a  lawsuit  resulting  from  an  accident  in 1989  during  the
construction  of the  complex  owned  by the  Littleton  Local  Partnership.  In
November 1995 the Littleton Local  Partnership and one  co-defendant  were found
liable in the lawsuit,  of which the  Littleton  Local  Partnership's  potential
liability  is  approximately  $300,000.  The  Littleton  Local  Partnership  has
appealed  the  result  of  the  trial  and  has  filed  a  lawsuit  against  the
construction  period insurance  companies,  which were not  co-defendants in the
lawsuit.  Although the local general partner of the Littleton Local  Partnership
expects the incident to be covered by insurance,  it has agreed to indemnify the
Littleton  Local  Partnership  and has  established  an escrow of  approximately
$325,000 from development  proceeds in the event the Littleton Local Partnership
is  unsuccessful  in its appeal and its action against the  construction  period
insurance companies.

On  July  16,  1997,  Everest  Properties,  Inc.  ("Everest")  demanded  certain
information  with  respect to the  holders  of Units.  Everest  stated  that the
purpose of the demand was to assist  Everest in making an offer to Unit  holders
to purchase their Units and otherwise to communicate  with them  concerning such
an offer.  On July 25,  1997,  Registrant  requested  certain  information  from
Everest in order to assess the  appropriateness of the demand. On July 28, 1997,
Everest  filed a complaint  in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware in
and for New Castle County against the  Registrant,  the General  Partner and its
general partner seeking,  among other things,  an order directing the defendants
to immediately furnish the requested  information and awarding the plaintiff any
resulting  damages.  A one day trial was held on September 29, 1997. On December
5, 1997, the Court of Chancery  issued a memorandum  opinion and order,  holding
that the  plaintiff  is entitled to the  requested  information  regarding  Unit
holders.  On  December  15,  1997,  defendants  filed a Notice  of Appeal to the
Supreme  Court of Delaware,  which appeal was heard and denied.  Registrant  has
complied with the Court of Chancery's order.

The first  mortgage of Ann Ell Apartments  Associates,  Ltd. (the "Ann Ell Local
Partnership")  had  been  in  default  due  to  insufficient   deposits  to  the
replacement  reserve  and the lender had  alleged  certain  other  incidents  of
default including, among other things, inadequate funding of real estate tax and
insurance  escrows and failure to procure  certain minimum  insurance  coverage,
resulting in the lender  filing a Complaint to Foreclose  Mortgage And For Other
Relief and filing an Entry Of A Final  Judgement Of Foreclosure in Circuit Court
for Dade  County,  Florida on January 31,  1997.  Registrant  replaced the local
general  partner  and the  management  agent  of the Ann Ell  Local  Partnership
effective July 10, 1997 and advanced approximately $185,000 to cure defaults and
sufficiently fund the replacement  reserve and escrows.  The foreclosure  action
has been voluntarily dismissed.

Registrant is not aware of any other material legal proceedings.

Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

There were no matters  submitted to a vote of the limited partners of Registrant
during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by this report.

Item 5.  Market for Registrant's Common Equity
         and Related Security Holder Matters

Market Information and Holders

There  is  no  established   public  trading  market  for  Registrant's   Units.
Accordingly,  accurate information as to the market value of a Unit at any given
date is not  available.  The  number of  owners of Units as of May 20,  1998 was
3,440, holding 55,746 Units.

Merrill Lynch follows  internal  guidelines  for providing  estimated  values of
limited  partnerships  and other direct  investments  reported on client account
statements.   Pursuant  to  such   guidelines,   estimated  values  for  limited
partnership  interests reported on Merrill Lynch client account statements (such
as  Registrant's  Units) are provided to Merrill Lynch by independent  valuation
services.  These estimated  values are based on financial and other  information
available to the independent services (1) on the prior August 15th for reporting
on December  year-end  and  subsequent  client  account  statements  through the
following May month-end  client  account  statements  and (2) on the prior March
31st for reporting on June through November  month-end client account statements
of the same  year.  Merrill  Lynch  clients  may  contact  their  Merrill  Lynch
Financial  Consultants or telephone the number provided to them on their account
statements  to  obtain a  general  description  of the  methodology  used by the
independent  valuation  services  to  determine  their  estimates  of value.  In
addition,  Registrant may provide an estimate of value to Unit holders from time
to time in  Registrant's  reports  to limited  partners.  The  estimated  values
provided by the independent  services and Registrant,  which may differ, are not
market  values and Unit  holders  may not be able to sell their Units or realize
either  amount upon a sale of their  Units.  In  addition,  Unit holders may not
realize such estimated  values upon the liquidation of Registrant's  assets over
its remaining life.

Distributions

Registrant owns a limited  partnership  interest in Local  Partnerships that are
the owners of Properties which are leveraged and receive  government  assistance
in various forms of rental and debt service subsidies.  The distribution of cash
flow generated by the Local  Partnerships  may be  restricted,  as determined by
each  Local  Partnership's   financing  and  subsidy  agreements.   Accordingly,
Registrant  does not  anticipate  that it will provide  significant  annual cash
distributions to its partners.  There were no cash distributions to the partners
during the years ended March 30, 1998 and 1997.

Low-income Tax Credits and Historic  Rehabilitation Tax Credits  (together,  the
"Tax  Credits"),  which  are  subject  to  various  limitations,  may be used by
partners  to offset  Federal  income tax  liabilities.  The Tax Credits per Unit
generated by Registrant and allocated to the limited  partners for the tax years
ended December 31, 1997 and 1996 and the  cumulative Tax Credits  allocated from
inception through December 31, 1997 are as follows:

</TABLE>
   Cumulative  totals $ 6.56 $  1,158.33   

Notwithstanding  future circumstances  which may give rise to recapture or loss
of future  benefits (see Part I, Item 2 Properties,  herein),  Registrant 
expects to generate  total Tax Credits from investments in Local Partnerships of
approximately $1,500 per Unit through December 31, 2001.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Registrant  admitted limited  partners in three closings with aggregate  limited
partners' capital contributions of $55,746,000.  In connection with the offering
of the sale of Units,  Registrant  incurred  organization  and offering costs of
approximately   $6,534,000  and   established  a  working   capital  reserve  of
approximately   $3,345,000.   The  remaining   net  proceeds  of   approximately
$45,867,000 (the "Net Proceeds") were available to be applied to the acquisition
of  limited   partnership   interests   in  local   partnerships   (the   "Local
Partnerships")  which own  low-income  multifamily  residential  complexes  (the
"Property" or  "Properties")  which qualify for the  low-income tax credit under
Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Low-income Tax Credit"); one Local
Partnership owns a Property which also qualifies for the historic rehabilitation
tax credit in  accordance  with Section  48(g) of the  Internal  Revenue Code of
1986.  Any  adjustments to the capital  contributions  made by Registrant to the
Local  Partnerships  under  the terms of the  Local  Partnerships'  partnership
agreements  have  resulted in an  adjustment  to  Registrant's  working  capital
reserve.  Registrant  has utilized  Net  Proceeds,  after  making any  necessary
adjustments, in acquiring an interest in fifty Local Partnerships.

As of March 30, 1998,  Registrant has cash and cash  equivalents and investments
in bonds  totaling  $4,783,802  which is  available  for  operating  expenses of
Registrant  and  circumstances  which  may  arise in  connection  with the Local
Partnerships.  As of March 30, 1998, Registrant's investments in bonds represent
corporate  bonds  of  $3,186,166,  U.S.  Treasury  bonds  of  $488,688  and U.S.
government  agency bonds of $595,412  with various  maturity  dates ranging from
1999 to 2023.  Registrant  acquired such investments in bonds with the intention
of  utilizing  proceeds  generated  by  such  investments  to  meet  its  annual
obligations.  Future  sources of Registrant  funds are expected  primarily  from
interest  earned on working  capital and limited cash  distributions  from Local
Partnerships.

During the year ended March 30, 1998,  Registrant  received  cash from  interest
revenue,  maturity  of a bond and  distributions  from  Local  Partnerships  and
utilized cash for operating expenses, investments in bonds and providing capital
to a Local  Partnership.  Cash and cash  equivalents  and  investments  in bonds
available-for-sale  decreased, in the aggregate, by approximately $42,000 during
the  year  ended  March  30,  1998  (which  included  a net  unrealized  gain on
investments in bonds of approximately  $200,000, the amortization of net premium
on  investments  in bonds of  approximately  $42,000 and the  accretion  of zero
coupon bonds of approximately $41,000).  Notwithstanding  circumstances that may
arise in connection with the  Properties,  Registrant does not expect to realize
significant gains or losses on its investments in bonds, if any.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations (continued)
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


During the year ended  March 30,  1998,  the  investment  in Local  Partnerships
decreased as a result of Registrant's equity in the Local Partnerships' net loss
for the year  ended  December  31,  1997 of  $2,806,299  and cash  distributions
received from Local  Partnerships of $192,939  (exclusive of distributions  from
Local Partnerships of $1,348 classified as other income), partially offset by an
investment paid to a Local  Partnership of $184,503.  Payable to general partner
in the  accompanying  balance  sheet as of March  30,  1998  represents  accrued
management fees.

Results of Operations

Registrant's  operating  results are dependent upon the operating results of the
Local  Partnerships and are  significantly  impacted by the Local  Partnerships'
policies. In addition, the operating results herein are not necessarily the same
for tax reporting.  Registrant accounts for its investment in Local Partnerships
in accordance  with the equity method of accounting,  under which the investment
is  carried  at cost  and is  adjusted  for  Registrant's  share  of each  Local
Partnership's results of operations and by cash distributions  received.  Equity
in loss of each  investment  in Local  Partnership  allocated to  Registrant  is
recognized  to the  extent of  Registrant's  investment  balance  in each  Local
Partnership.  Equity in loss in excess of Registrant's  investment  balance in a
Local  Partnership  is  allocated to other  partners'  capital in any such Local
Partnership.  As a result,  the reported  equity in loss of  investment in Local
Partnerships is expected to decrease as Registrant's  investment balances in the
respective Local Partnerships become zero.  However,  the combined statements of
operations  of the  Local  Partnerships  reflected  in  Note  5 to  Registrant's
financial  statements  include the operating results of all Local  Partnerships,
irrespective of Registrant's investment balances.

Cumulative  losses  and cash  distributions  in  excess of  investment  in Local
Partnerships  may result  from a variety  of  circumstances,  including  a Local
Partnership's  accounting  policies,   subsidy  structure,  debt  structure  and
operating deficits, among other things. Accordingly,  cumulative losses and cash
distributions  in excess of the  investment  are not  necessarily  indicative of
adverse  operating  results of a Local  Partnership.  See discussion below under
Local  Partnership  Matters  regarding  certain  Local  Partnerships   currently
operating below economic break even levels.

Registrant's  operations  for the  years  ended  March 30,  1998,  1997 and 1996
resulted in net losses of $3,189,990,  $5,506,972 and $3,837,432,  respectively.
The  decrease  in net loss  from  1997 to 1998 is  primarily  attributable  to a
decrease in equity in loss of investment in Local  Partnerships of approximately
$2,374,000,   partially   offset  by  an  increase  in   professional   fees  of
approximately  $46,000.  The decrease in equity in loss of  investment  in Local
Partnerships  is primarily the result of (i) a decrease in net loss of the Local
Partnerships of approximately  $8,373,000  resulting primarily from the recorded
impairment  for the year ended  December 31, 1996 in connection  with  Christian
Street Associates Limited Partnership (the "Christian Street Local Partnership")
and 2000-2100  Christian  Street  Associates (the "2000  Christian  Street Local
Partnership")  of  $7,314,852,  partially  offset  by  (ii)  a  decrease  in the
nonrecognition  of  losses  in  excess  of  Registrant's   investment  in  Local
Partnerships of approximately $5,871,000 in accordance with the equity method of
accounting.  The increase in professional  fees is primarily the result of costs
incurred in connection  with an outside  party's desire to purchase  Units.  The
increase in net loss from 1996 to 1997 is primarily  attributable to an increase
in  equity  in  loss  of  investment  in  Local  Partnerships  of  approximately
$1,666,000,  which is  primarily  the  result of the  adjustment  to reduce  the
Christian  Street  Local   Partnership  and  the  2000  Christian  Street  Local
Partnership  properties  to  their  estimated  fair  value  in  accordance  with
applicable  accounting  practices and an increase in depreciation expense of two
Local Partnerships associated with payments in connection with acquisition notes
which were originally not recorded due to the uncertainty of ultimate  repayment
at the time the respective  Properties were placed in service,  partially offset
by an  increase  in the  nonrecognition  of losses  in  excess  of  Registrant's
investment in Local Partnerships of approximately  $5,960,000 in accordance with
the equity method of accounting.

The Local Partnerships' net loss of approximately  $3,570,000 for the year ended
December  31,  1997   includes   depreciation   and   amortization   expense  of
approximately  $5,272,000 and interest on  non-mandatory  debt of  approximately
$698,000,  and does not include  principal  payments on  permanent  mortgages of
approximately  $1,031,000.  The Local  Partnerships'  net loss of  approximately
$11,942,000  for the year ended  December  31, 1996  includes  depreciation  and
amortization expense of approximately $6,115,000, interest on non-mandatory debt
of  approximately  $695,000 and a loss from  impairment of long-lived  assets of
approximately  $7,315,000,  and does not include principal payments on permanent
mortgages  of  approximately  $1,045,000.  The Local  Partnerships'  net loss of
approximately   $4,159,000  for  the  year  ended  December  31,  1995  includes
depreciation and amortization  expense of approximately  $5,734,000 and interest
on non-mandatory debt of approximately  $690,000, and does not include principal
payments  on  permanent  mortgages  of  approximately  $942,000.  The results of
operations of the Local  Partnerships  for the year ended  December 31, 1997 are
not  necessarily  indicative  of  results  that may be  expected  in the  future
periods.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations (continued)

Local Partnership Matters

The Properties are principally  comprised of subsidized and leveraged low-income
multifamily  residential  complexes  located  throughout  the United  States and
Puerto Rico. The rents of the  Properties,  many of which receive rental subsidy
payments  pursuant  to  subsidy  agreements  ("HAP  Contracts")  are  subject to
specific laws,  regulations and agreements with federal and state agencies.  Six
Local  Partnerships have one or more HAP Contracts,  certain of which cover only
certain  rental units,  which are scheduled to expire in 1998. In addition,  the
Local Partnerships have various financing  structures which include (i) required
debt service payments  ("Mandatory Debt Service") and (ii) debt service payments
which  are  payable  only from  available  cash  flow  subject  to the terms and
conditions of the notes, which may be subject to specific laws,  regulations and
agreements  with  appropriate  federal and state agencies  ("Non-Mandatory  Debt
Service or  Interest").  During the year ended  December 31, 1997,  revenue from
operations,   Local  General   Partner   advances  and  reserves  of  the  Local
Partnerships have generally been sufficient to cover the operating  expenses and
Mandatory  Debt  Service.  Substantially  all  of  the  Local  Partnerships  are
effectively  operating  at or near break even  levels,  although  certain  Local
Partnerships'  operating  information  reflects  operating  deficits that do not
represent  cash deficits due to their  mortgage and financing  structure and the
required  deferral of property  management  fees.  However,  as discussed below,
certain Local  Partnerships'  operating  information  indicates below break even
operations after taking into account their mortgage and financing  structure and
any required deferral of property management fees.

The terms of the partnership  agreements of Christian Street Associates  Limited
Partnership (the "Christian Street Local  Partnership") and 2000-2100  Christian
Street Associates (the "2000 Christian Street Local Partnership") (collectively,
the  "Christian  Street  Local  Partnerships"),  which Local  Partnerships  have
certain common  general  partner  interests and a common first mortgage  lender,
require the Local General Partners to advance funds to cover operating  deficits
up to  $182,500  (through  March 1996) and  $130,000  (through  December  1996),
respectively,  and to cause the management  agent to defer  property  management
fees in order to avoid a default under the respective mortgages.  The properties
have  experienced  ongoing  operating  deficits and as of December 31, 1997, the
Local General  Partners have  advanced  approximately  $404,000 to the Christian
Street Local Partnership and approximately $330,000 to the 2000 Christian Street
Local  Partnership.  However,  the Local General Partners,  which have fulfilled
their respective deficit  guarantees,  have informed Registrant that they do not
intend to continue to voluntarily fund the operating deficits of the properties.
The Local  General  Partners have also  informed  Registrant  that the Christian
Street Local  Partnerships  are current under their  respective  first  mortgage
obligations  as a result of the Local  General  Partners'  funding of  operating
deficits.  The  Local  General  Partners  have  approached  the  lender  and are
attempting to  restructure  the loans;  however the lender has indicated that in
connection with any such restructuring,  the respective Local Partnerships would
be responsible  for certain  costs,  which may be  significant.  There can be no
assurance that any such  restructuring  will be achieved.  The Christian  Street
Local  Partnership  and the 2000  Christian  Street Local  Partnership  incurred
operating  deficits  for the  year  ended  December  31,  1997 of  approximately
$140,000 and $99,000,  respectively  (exclusive of property  management  fees of
approximately  $19,000 and $16,000,  respectively).  The Christian  Street Local
Partnerships have allocated approximately 7.5 years of Low-income Tax Credits to
Registrant through December 31, 1997. Accordingly, if the Local General Partners
cease to fund the operating deficits, Registrant may incur substantial recapture
of Low-income Tax Credits.  Of Registrant's total annual Low-income Tax Credits,
approximately   6%  and  3%  are  allocated  from  the  Christian  Street  Local
Partnership and the 2000 Christian Street Local Partnership,  respectively,  and
are scheduled to expire in 2000.

Due to the continuing operating deficits and the uncertainty of future operating
income of the Christian  Street Local  Partnership and the 2000 Christian Street
Local Partnership,  the combined financial  statements of the Local Partnerships
as of and for the year ended December 31, 1996 include a loss from impairment of
long-lived  assets totaling  $7,314,852,  which  represents an adjustment of the
real property of the Christian  Street Local  Partnership and the 2000 Christian
Street Local  Partnership of $3,986,977 and $3,327,875,  respectively,  based on
estimates of expected future cash flows.  Registrant  recorded additional equity
in loss of investment in Local Partnerships during the year ended March 30, 1997
of $1,371,790 as a result of such impairment.

During the year ended December 31, 1997, Forest Village Housing Partnership (the
"Forest   Village  Local   Partnership")   incurred  an  operating   deficit  of
approximately  $13,000,  resulting  primarily from costs  associated with tenant
turnover and unscheduled maintenance.  Payments on the mortgages and real estate
taxes  are  current.  Of  Registrant's  total  annual  Low-income  Tax  Credits,
approximately 1% is allocated from the Forest Village Local Partnership.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
         Results of Operations (continued)

The first  mortgage of Ann Ell Apartments  Associates,  Ltd. (the "Ann Ell Local
Partnership")  had  been  in  default  due  to  insufficient   deposits  to  the
replacement  reserve  and the lender had  alleged  certain  other  incidents  of
default including, among other things, inadequate funding of real estate tax and
insurance  escrows and failure to procure  certain minimum  insurance  coverage,
resulting  in the lender  filing a  foreclosure  action and a motion for summary
judgment. Registrant replaced the Local General Partner and the management agent
of  the  Ann  Ell  Local  Partnership  effective  July  10,  1997  and  advanced
approximately  $185,000 to cure defaults and  sufficiently  fund the replacement
reserve and escrows. The foreclosure action has been voluntarily dismissed.

Littleton Avenue Community Village,  L.P. (the "Littleton Local Partnership") is
a  defendant  in a  lawsuit  resulting  from  an  accident  in 1989  during  the
construction  of the  complex  owned  by the  Littleton  Local  Partnership.  In
November 1995 the Littleton Local  Partnership and one  co-defendant  were found
liable in the lawsuit,  of which the  Littleton  Local  Partnership's  potential
liability  is  approximately  $300,000.  The  Littleton  Local  Partnership  has
appealed  the  result  of  the  trial  and  has  filed  a  lawsuit  against  the
construction  period insurance  companies,  which were not  co-defendants in the
lawsuit.  Although the Local General  Partner expects the incident to be covered
by insurance, it has agreed to indemnify the Littleton Local Partnership and has
established an escrow of approximately $325,000 from development proceeds in the
event the Littleton  Local  Partnership  is  unsuccessful  in its appeal and its
action against the construction period insurance companies.

Inflation

Inflation  is not  expected to have a material  adverse  impact on  Registrant's
operations during its period of ownership of the Local Partnership Interests.

Adoption of Accounting Standard

Registrant has adopted Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standard ("SFAS")
No. 128,  "Earnings Per Share" and SFAS No.129,  "Disclosure  of  Information
about  Capital  Structure."  SFAS No. 128  establishes  standards  for computing
and presenting  earnings per share.  SFAS No. 129 requires the  disclosure in
summary form within the  financial  statements of the pertinent  rights and
privileges of the various  securities  outstanding.  The adoption of SFAS
Nos. 128 and 129 has not materially impacted the Registrant's reported earnings,
financial condition,  cash flows or presentation of the financial statements.

Accounting Standard not yet Adopted

On March 31, 1998,  Registrant  adopted SFAS No. 130,  "Reporting  Comprehensive
Income."  SFAS No.  130  establishes  standards  for  reporting  and  display of
comprehensive income and its components (revenues,  expenses,  gains and losses)
in a full set of general-purpose financial statements.  The adoption of SFAS No.
130 is not expected to have a material impact on Registrant's financial position
and results of operations.

                                              Independent Auditors' Report


To the Partners
American Tax Credit Properties II L.P.


         We have audited the accompanying  balance sheets of American Tax Credit
Properties II L.P. as of March 30, 1998 and 1997, and the related  statements of
operations, changes in partners' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended March 30, 1998.  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 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 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 American Tax Credit
Properties  II L.P.  as of March  30,  1998 and  1997,  and the  results  of its
operations  and its cash flows for each of the three  years in the period  ended
March 30, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                       MARCH 30, 1998, 1997 AND 1996


1.     Organization, Purpose and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

       American Tax Credit Properties II L.P. (the  "Partnership") was formed on
       October  26,  1988 and the  Certificate  of  Limited  Partnership  of the
       Partnership  was  filed  under  the  Delaware   Revised  Uniform  Limited
       Partnership  Act. There was no operating  activity until admission of the
       limited  partners on June 28, 1989. The  Partnership was formed to invest
       primarily in leveraged low-income multifamily  residential complexes (the
       "Property" or  "Properties")  which qualify for the low-income tax credit
       established by Section 42 of the Internal  Revenue Code (the  "Low-income
       Tax  Credit"),  through the  acquisition  of limited  partnership  equity
       interests (the "Local Partnership Interests") in partnerships (the "Local
       Partnership"  or  "Local  Partnerships")  that  are  the  owners  of  the
       Properties.  The  Partnership  has  invested in one  Property  which also
       qualifies for the historic  rehabilitation  tax credit in accordance with
       Section  48(g) of the Internal  Revenue Code of 1986.  Richman Tax Credit
       Properties II L.P. (the "General Partner") was formed on October 26, 1988
       to act as the general partner of the Partnership.

       Basis of Accounting and Fiscal Year

       The  Partnership's  records  are  maintained  on  the  accrual  basis  of
       accounting for both financial  reporting and tax purposes.  For financial
       reporting purposes,  the Partnership's  fiscal year ends March 30 and its
       quarterly  periods end June 29,  September  29 and December 30. The Local
       Partnerships have a calendar year for financial reporting  purposes.  The
       Partnership  and the Local  Partnerships  each have a  calendar  year for
       income tax purposes.

       The  Partnership  accounts for its  investment in Local  Partnerships  in
       accordance  with  the  equity  method  of  accounting,  under  which  the
       investment is carried at cost and is adjusted for the Partnership's share
       of  each  Local   Partnership's   results  of  operations   and  by  cash
       distributions  received.  Equity  in  loss of each  investment  in  Local
       Partnership  allocated to the  Partnership is recognized to the extent of
       the Partnership's investment balance in each Local Partnership. Equity in
       loss  in  excess  of the  Partnership's  investment  balance  in a  Local
       Partnership  is  allocated to other  partners'  capital in any such Local
       Partnership.   Previously  unrecognized  equity  in  loss  of  any  Local
       Partnership is recognized in the fiscal year in which equity in income is
       earned by such Local Partnership.  Distributions  received  subsequent to
       the  elimination  of an investment  balance for any such  investment in a
       Local Partnership are recorded as other income from Local Partnerships.

       The Partnership  regularly assesses its investments in Local Partnerships
       for the existence of impairment.  If an investment in a Local Partnership
       is considered to be permanently  impaired,  the  Partnership  reduces its
       investment in any such Local  Partnership  and includes such reduction in
       equity in loss of investment in Local Partnerships.

       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 revenue and expenses
       during the  reporting  period.  Actual  results  could  differ from those
       estimates.

       Adoption of Accounting Standard

       The Partnership has adopted Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standard
       ("SFAS") No. 128,  "Earnings Per Share" and SFAS No. 129,  "Disclosure of
       Information  about Capital  Structure." SFAS No. 128 establishes
       standards for computing  and  presenting  earnings per share.  SFAS
       No. 129 requires the  disclosure in summary form within the financial
       statements  of the  pertinent  rights  and  privileges  of the  various
       securities  outstanding.  The adoption of SFAS Nos. 128 and 129 has not
       materially  impacted the  Partnership's  reported  earnings,  financial
       condition, cash flows or presentation of the financial statements.

       Accounting Standard not yet Adopted

       On March 31,  1998,  the  Partnership  adopted  SFAS No. 130,  "Reporting
       Comprehensive  Income."  SFAS No. 130 establishes  standards  for
       reporting  and  display  of  comprehensive  income  and its  components
       (revenues, expenses,

       gains and losses) in a full set of  general-purpose  financial
       statements.  The  adoption of SFAS No. 130 is not expected to have a
       material impact on the Partnership's financial position and results of
       operations.

       Cash and Cash Equivalents

       For purposes of the statements of cash flows,  the Partnership  considers
       all highly  liquid  investments  purchased  with an original  maturity of
       three months or less at the date of acquisition  to be cash  equivalents.
       Cash and cash  equivalents are stated at cost which  approximates  market
       value.

       Investments in Bonds Available-For-Sale

       Investments   in  bonds   classified  as   available-for-sale   represent
       investments that the Partnership intends to hold for an indefinite period
       of  time  but  not  necessarily  to  maturity.  Any  decision  to sell an
       investment  classified  as  available-for-sale  would be based on various
       factors,  including significant movements in interest rates and liquidity
       needs.  Investments in bonds  available-for-sale are carried at estimated
       fair  value and  unrealized  gains or losses are  reported  as a separate
       component of partners' equity (deficit).

       Premiums and discounts on  investments  in bonds  available-for-sale  are
       amortized  (accreted) using the straight-line method over the life of the
       investment.   Amortized  premiums  offset  interest  revenue,  while  the
       accretion  of  discounts  and zero coupon  bonds are included in interest
       revenue.

       Realized  gain  (loss)  on  redemption  or sale of  investments  in bonds
       available-for-sale  are included in, or offset against,  interest revenue
       on the basis of the adjusted cost of each specific investment redeemed or
       sold.

       Interest on Capital Contributions Payable to Local Partnerships

       Pursuant to  agreements  with certain  Local  Partnerships,  interest was
       accrued on certain  installments of capital  contributions.  Such amounts
       were recorded as a liability and an offset to interest revenue.

       Income Taxes

       No provision  for income  taxes has been made because all income,  losses
       and tax credits are  allocated  to the  partners  for  inclusion in their
       respective tax returns. In accordance with SFAS No. 109,  "Accounting for
       Income Taxes," the Partnership has included in Note 7 certain disclosures
       related to differences in the book and tax bases of accounting.

       Reclassifications

       Certain  reclassifications  of  amounts  have been made to conform to the
       current year presentation.

2.     Capital Contributions

       On June 14, 1989,  the  Partnership  commenced the offering of units (the
       "Units") through Merrill Lynch, Pierce,  Fenner & Smith Incorporated (the
       "Selling Agent"). On June 28, 1989, July 31, 1989 and September 22, 1989,
       under  the  terms  of the  Amended  and  Restated  Agreement  of  Limited
       Partnership of the Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement"), the General
       Partner  admitted  limited partners to the Partnership in three closings.
       At these closings, subscriptions for a total of 55,746 Units representing
       $55,746,000 in limited partners' capital  contributions were accepted. In
       connection  with  the  offering  of  Units,   the  Partnership   incurred
       organization  and  offering  costs of  $6,534,064,  of which  $75,000 was
       capitalized  as  organization  costs and  $6,459,064  was  charged to the
       limited partners' equity as syndication costs. The Partnership received a
       capital contribution of $100 from the General Partner.

       Net  loss is  allocated  99% to the  limited  partners  and 1% to the
       General  Partner  in  accordance  with the Partnership Agreement.

3.     Cash and Cash Equivalents

       As of March 30,  1998,  the  Partnership  has  $513,536  in cash and cash
       equivalents  which are  deposited in  interest-bearing  accounts  with an
       institution  which  is not  insured  by  the  Federal  Deposit  Insurance
       Corporation.

4.     Investments in Bonds Available-For-Sale

       The Partnership  carries its  investments in bonds as  available-for-sale
       because such  investments are used to facilitate and provide  flexibility
       for the  Partnership's  obligations,  including  resolving  circumstances
       which may arise in connection with the Local Partnerships. Investments in
       bonds available-for-sale are reflected in the accompanying balance sheets
       at estimated fair value.

       As of March 30, 1998, certain information concerning investments in bonds
       available-for-sale is as follows:

       The  Properties  are  principally  comprised of subsidized  and leveraged
       low-income  multifamily  residential  complexes  located  throughout  the
       United  States and  Puerto  Rico.  The  required  holding  period of each
       Property,  in order to avoid Low-income Tax Credit recapture,  is fifteen
       years from the year in which the Low-income  Tax Credits  commence on the
       last building of the Property (the "Compliance Period"). The rents of the
       Properties  are  controlled  by federal  and state  agencies  pursuant to
       applicable  laws and  regulations.  Under  the terms of each of the Local
       Partnership's  partnership  agreements,   the  Partnership  made  capital
       contributions in the aggregate amount of $45,877,165.  As of December 31,
       1997,  the Local  Partnerships  have  outstanding  mortgage loans payable
       totaling  approximately  $92,291,000 and accrued interest payable on such
       loans totaling  approximately  $4,604,000,  which are secured by security
       interests and liens common to mortgage  loans on the Local  Partnerships'
       real property and other assets.

       Equity in loss of  investment  in Local  Partnerships  is  limited to the
       Partnership's investment balance in each Local Partnership; any excess is
       applied to other  partners'  capital in any such Local  Partnership  (see
       Note 1).  The amount of such  excess  losses  applied to other  partners'
       capital  was  $430,912,  $6,301,666  and  $341,567  for the  years  ended
       December  31,  1997,  1996 and 1995,  respectively,  as  reflected in the
       combined  statements of operations  of the Local  Partnerships  reflected
       herein Note 5.

       1997 and 1996 and the  combined  statements  of  operations  of the Local

       Payable  to the  general  partner  in  the  accompanying  balance  sheets
       represents  accrued  management  fees  not  deductible  for tax  purposes
       pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 267.

8.     Commitments and Contingencies

       Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership is required to pay
       the General Partner an annual  management fee  ("Management  Fee") and an
       annual  additional  management fee ("Additional  Management Fee") for its
       services  in  connection  with  the  management  of  the  affairs  of the
       Partnership,  subject to certain provisions of the Partnership Agreement.
       The annual Management Fee is equal to .14% of all proceeds as of December
       31  of  any  year,   invested  or  committed  for   investment  in  Local
       Partnerships  plus all debts of the  Local  Partnerships  related  to the
       Properties ("Invested Assets"). The Partnership incurred a Management Fee
       of $209,514 for each of the three years ended March 30, 1998.  The annual
       Additional  Management  Fee is  equal  to .06% of  Invested  Assets.  The
       Partnership incurred an Additional  Management Fee of $89,793 for each of
       the three years ended March 30,  1998.  Such amounts are  aggregated  and
       reflected under the caption management fees in the accompanying financial
       statements. Unpaid Management Fees in the amount of $546,015 and $486,224
       are recorded as payable to general  partner in the  accompanying  balance
       sheets as of March 30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

       In addition,  pursuant to the Partnership  Agreement,  the Partnership is
       required to pay ML Fund Administrators  Inc., an affiliate of the Selling
       Agent, an annual administration fee ("Administration  Fee") and an annual
       additional  administration fee ("Additional  Administration Fee") for its
       administrative   services   provided  to  the  Partnership.   The  annual
       Administration  Fee is equal to .14% of Invested Assets.  The Partnership
       incurred an  Administration  Fee of $209,514  for each of the three years
       ended March 30, 1998. The annual Additional Administration Fee is subject
       to certain  provisions of the Partnership  Agreement and is equal to .06%
       of Invested Assets. The Partnership incurred an Additional Administration
       Fee of $89,793 for each of the three years  ended  March 30,  1998.  Such
       amounts are  aggregated  and reflected  under the caption  administration
       fees in the accompanying financial statements. Unpaid Administration Fees
       in the amount of $546,025 and  $486,231 are included in accounts  payable
       and accrued expenses in the  accompanying  balance sheets as of March 30,
       1998 and 1997, respectively.

       In connection with the Forest Village Local Partnership,  the Partnership
       facilitated  the  purchase  of the first  mortgage  bonds (the  "Series A
       Bonds") at par by a group of investors (the "Group"). Though no member of
       the  Partnership  is a  participant  of the Group,  the  individuals  are
       closely  associated with the General Partner.  Notwithstanding  the close
       association  between the General Partner and the Group, the Group has all
       the rights and remedies of the former first mortgagee. In connection with
       this  transaction,  on November 12, 1993, the Partnership  entered into a
       Promissory  Note and Loan  Agreement  (the "Note") with the Group for the
       purpose of assisting the  Partnership  by providing  advances to it so it
       may help fund part of future  operating  deficits  of the Forest  Village
       Local  Partnership.  The  rate of  interest  is  10.5%  per  annum on the
       principal  balance  from time to time  outstanding.  In the event that no
       balance is outstanding under this Note, it shall continue as an effective
       instrument  at the option of the Group,  to evidence  future  advances or
       re-advances made by the Group. The entire  outstanding  principal balance
       and all accrued and unpaid  interest  thereon shall be due and payable in
       full on the  earliest  of (i) the final  maturity  of the Series A Bonds,
       (ii) the prepayment in full or default under the terms of the loan or the
       Series A bonds or (iii)  the  sale or  other  disposition  of the  Forest
       Village Local  Partnership.  The Note is nonrecourse except to the extent
       that the sum of the amounts  advanced under the Note and amounts received
       by the  Partnership  from the Forest  Village Local  Partnership  exceeds
       amounts paid by the  Partnership  in connection  with the Forest  Village
       Local Partnership.  As of March 30, 1998 and 1997, the Partnership has no
       outstanding  advance  due under  the Note and has  incurred  no  interest
       charges for the years ended March 30,

8.     Commitments and Contingencies (continued)

       1998, 1997 and 1996. The rents of the  Properties,  many of which receive
       rental subsidy payments,  including  payments under Section 8 of Title II
       of the Housing and Community  Development  Act of 1974 ("Section 8"), are
       subject to specific laws,  regulations  and  agreements  with federal and
       state agencies. The subsidy agreements expire at various times during and
       after the Compliance Periods of the Local Partnerships.  In October 1997,
       Congress  passed  the  Multifamily   Assisted   Housing  and  Reform  and
       Affordability  Act whereby the United  States  Department  of Housing and
       Urban  Development  ("HUD")  has been given  authority  to renew  certain
       project based Section 8 contracts expiring during HUD's fiscal year 1998,
       where requested by an owner, for an additional one year term generally at
       or below  current rent  levels,  subject to certain  guidelines.  HUD has
       additional  programs which, in general,  provide for restructuring  rents
       and/or  mortgages  where  rents  may be  adjusted  to market  levels  and
       mortgage terms may be adjusted based on the reduction in rents,  although
       there may be  instances  in which  only  rents,  but not  mortgages,  are
       restructured.  The  Partnership  cannot  reasonably  predict  legislative
       initiatives and governmental  budget  negotiations,  the outcome of which
       could result in a reduction in funds  available  for the various  federal
       and state administered  housing programs including the Section 8 program.
       Such changes could adversely  affect the future net operating  income and
       debt structure of any or all Local Partnerships  currently receiving such
       subsidy or similar  subsidies.  Six Local  Partnerships  have one or more
       Section 8 contracts,  certain of which cover only certain  rental  units,
       which are scheduled to expire in 1998.

       On  July  16,  1997,  the  Partnership  received  a  demand  for  certain
       information  with respect to the holders of Units,  the stated purpose of
       which was to assist  such  party in  making an offer to Unit  holders  to
       purchase  their Units and otherwise to communicate  with them  concerning
       such  an  offer.   Subsequently,   the  Partnership   requested   certain
       information from such party in order to assess the appropriateness of the
       demand.  On July 28, 1997, a complaint was filed in the Court of Chancery
       of the  State  of  Delaware  in and for New  Castle  County  against  the
       Partnership,  the General Partner and its general partner seeking,  among
       other things,  an order  directing the defendants to immediately  furnish
       the  requested  information  and awarding  the  plaintiff  any  resulting
       damages.  A one day trial was held on September  29, 1997. On December 5,
       1997,  the Court of  Chancery  issued a  memorandum  opinion  and  order,
       holding  that the  plaintiff  is  entitled to the  requested  information
       regarding Unit holders.  On December 15, 1997,  defendants filed a Notice
       of Appeal to the Supreme  Court of  Delaware,  which appeal was heard and
       denied. The Partnership has complied with the Court of Chancery's order.

9.     Fair Value of Financial Instruments

       The  following  disclosure  of the  estimated  fair  value  of  financial
       instruments is made in accordance with the  requirements of SFAS No. 107,
       "Disclosures  about Fair Value of Financial  Instruments."  The estimated
       fair  value  amounts  have  been  determined   using   available   market
       information, assumptions, estimates and valuation methodologies.

       Cash and Cash Equivalents

       The carrying amount approximates fair value.

       Investments in Bonds Available-For-Sale

       Fair value is estimated based on market quotes provided by an independent
       service as of the balance sheet dates.

       Interest Receivable

       The  carrying  amount  approximates  fair  value  due to the terms of the
       underlying investments.


       The estimated fair value of the Partnership's  financial instruments as
       of March 30, 1998 and 1997 are disclosed elsewhere in the financial
       statements.
