NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General

The accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial  information  and with the  instructions  to Form  10-Q for  quarterly
reports  under  Section  13 or 15(d)  of the  Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934.
Accordingly,  they do not include all of the information and footnotes  required

indicative  of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March
31,  2001.  For  further  information,  refer to the  financial  statements  and
footnotes thereto included in the  Partnership's  annual report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000.

Organization

WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund II,  L.P.,  a California  Limited  Partnership  (the
"Partnership"),  was formed on January  19,  1990 under the laws of the State of
California.  The  Partnership  was formed to invest  primarily in other  limited
partnerships   (the  "Local  Limited   Partnerships")   which  own  and  operate
multifamily  housing complexes (the "Housing Complex") that are eligible for low
income  housing tax credits.  The local  general  partners  (the "Local  General
Partners")  of  each  Local  Limited   Partnership  retain   responsibility  for
maintaining, operating and managing the Housing Complex.

The general partner is WNC Financial Group, L.P., a California  partnership (the
"General  Partner")  of the  Partnership.  WNC &  Associates,  Inc.  ("WNC") and
Wilfred N.  Cooper,  Sr. are the  partners  of the General  Partner.  Wilfred N.
Cooper,  Sr., through the Cooper Revocable Trust,  owns 66.8% of the outstanding
stock of WNC.  John B.  Lester,  Jr.  was the  original  limited  partner of the
Partnership and owns,  through the Lester Family Trust, 28.6% of the outstanding
stock of WNC.  Wilfred  N.  Cooper,  Jr.,  President  of WNC,  owns  2.1% of the
outstanding stock of WNC. The business of the Partnership is conducted primarily
through WNC, as the Partnership has no employees of its own.

The  Partnership  Agreement  authorized the sale of up to 12,000 units at $1,000
per Unit  ("Units").  The  offering of Units  concluded  on December 31, 1992 at
which time 7,000 Units  representing  subscriptions  in the amount of $7,000,000
had been accepted.  The General  Partner has a 1% interest in operating  profits
and losses,  taxable income and losses,  in cash available for distribution from
the Partnership and tax credits of the Partnership. The limited partners will be
allocated the  remaining  99% of these items in  proportion to their  respective
investments.

After the limited  partners  have received  proceeds from a sale or  refinancing
equal to their capital  contributions and their return on investment (as defined
in the  Partnership  Agreement)  and the General  Partner has received  proceeds
equal  to its  capital  contribution  and a  subordinated  disposition  fee  (as
described in Note 3) from the  remainder,  any  additional  sale or  refinancing
proceeds will be distributed 95% to the limited partners (in proportion to their
respective investments) and 5% to the General Partner.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Partnership's  investments in Local Limited  Partnerships are subject to the
risks incident to the management and ownership of low-income  housing and to the
management and ownership of multi-unit  residential  real estate.  Some of these
risks  are that the low  income  housing  credit  could be  recaptured  and that
neither the  Partnership's  investments  nor the Housing  Complexes owned by the
Local Limited Partnerships will be readily marketable. To the extent the Housing
Complexes  receive  government  financing  or operating  subsidies,  they may be
subject to one or more of the following risks: difficulties in obtaining tenants
for the Housing Complexes; difficulties in obtaining rent increases; limitations
on cash distributions; limitations on sales or refinancing of Housing Complexes;
limitations on transfers of Local Limited Partnership Interests;  limitations on
removal of Local General Partners; limitations on subsidy programs; and possible
changes in applicable regulations.  The Housing Complexes are or will be subject
to  mortgage  indebtedness.  If a Local  Limited  Partnership  does not make its
mortgage payments, the lender could foreclose resulting in a loss of the Housing
Complex  and low  income  housing  credits.  As a limited  partner  of the Local
Limited Partnerships, the Partnership will have very limited rights with respect
to management of the Local  Limited  Partnerships,  and will rely totally on the
Local General  Partners of the Local Limited  Partnerships for management of the
Local Limited Partnerships.  The value of the Partnership's  investments will be
subject  to  changes  in  national  and  local  economic  conditions,  including
unemployment  conditions,  which could adversely  impact vacancy levels,  rental
payment  defaults and operating  expenses.  This, in turn,  could  substantially
increase  the  risk of  operating  losses  for  the  Housing  Complexes  and the
Partnership.  In addition,  each Local Limited  Partnership  is subject to risks
relating  to  environmental   hazards  and  natural  disasters  which  might  be
uninsurable. Because the Partnership's operations will depend on these and other
factors  beyond  the  control  of the  General  Partner  and the  Local  General
Partners,  there can be no assurance  that the  anticipated  low income  housing
credits will be available to Limited Partners.

In addition,  Limited  Partners are subject to risks in that the rules governing
the low income  housing  credit are  complicated,  and the use of credits can be
limited.  The only  material  benefit from an investment in Units may be the low
income housing credits. There are limits on the transferability of Units, and it
is unlikely that a market for Units will develop.  All management decisions will
be made by the General Partner.

Method of Accounting For Investments in Limited Partnerships

The Partnership  accounts for its investments in limited  partnerships using the
equity method of  accounting,  whereby the  Partnership  adjusts its  investment
balance for its share of the Local Limited  Partnership's  results of operations
and for any distributions received. The accounting policies of the Local Limited
Partnerships are consistent with those of the Partnership. Costs incurred by the
Partnership  in  acquiring  the  investments  are  capitalized  as  part  of the
investment account and are being amortized over 30 years(see Note 2).

Offering Expenses

Offering  expenses consist of underwriting  commissions,  legal fees,  printing,
filing and  recordation  fees,  and other costs  incurred  with selling  limited
partnership  interests in the  Partnership.  The General Partner is obligated to
pay all  offering  and  organization  costs in  excess of 15%  (including  sales
commissions) of the total offering proceeds.  Offering expenses are reflected as
a reduction of partners'  capital and amounted to  $1,056,840  at the end of all
periods presented.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

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

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The  Partnership   considers  all  highly  liquid   investments  with  remaining
maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.  As of
June 30, 2000 and March 31, 2000, of $125,000 and $142,285, respectively.

Net Loss Per Limited Partnership Unit

Net loss per limited  partnership  unit is  calculated  pursuant to Statement of
Financial  Accounting  Standards No. 128,  Earnings Per Share. Net loss per unit
includes no dilution  and is computed  by  dividing  loss  available  to limited
partners by the weighted average number of units outstanding  during the period.
Calculation of diluted net income per unit is not required.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS

As of the periods  presented,  the Partnership had acquired limited  partnership
interests in  twenty-seven  Local Limited  Partnerships,  each of which owns one
Housing  Complex  consisting  of  an  aggregate  of  784  apartment  units.  The
respective  general  partners  of the  Local  Limited  Partnerships  manage  the
day-to-day  operations of the entities.  Significant  Local Limited  Partnership
business  decisions,  as defined,  require the approval of the Partnership.  The
Partnership, as a limited partner, is generally entitled to 99%, as specified in
the Local Limited Partnership  agreements,  of the operating profits and losses,
taxable income and losses and tax credits of the Local Limited Partnerships.

Equity  in  losses  of the  Local  Limited  Partnerships  is  recognized  in the
financial  statements until the related  investment account is reduced to a zero
balance. Losses incurred after the investment account is reduced to zero are not
recognized. If the Local Limited Partnerships report net income in future years,
the  Partnership  will resume applying the equity method only after its share of
such net  income  equals  the share of net  losses  not  recognized  during  the
period(s) the equity method was suspended.

NOTE 3- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Under the terms of the  Partnership  Agreement,  the  Partnership has paid or is
obligated to the General Partner or its affiliates for the following items:

     (a)  Annual  Asset  Management  Fee. An annual asset  management  fee in an
          amount equal to 0.5% of invested assets (the sum of the  Partnership's
          Investment   in   Local   Limited   Partnership   Interests   and  the
          Partnership's  allocable  share of the amount of the mortgage loans on
          and other debts related to, the Housing  Complexes owned by such Local
          Limited  Partnerships).  Fees of $36,223  and  $36,226  were  incurred
          during the three  months  ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,  respectively.
          The  Partnership  made  no  payments  to the  General  Partner  or its
          affiliates  for those fees during the three months ended June 30, 2000
          and 1999.

     (b)  A subordinated  disposition  fee in an amount equal to 1% of the sales
          price of any real estate sold.  Payment of this fee is subordinated to
          the limited  partners who receive a 6% preferred return (as defined in
          the Partnership  Agreement) and is payable only if the General Partner
          or its affiliates  render  services in the sales effort.  The "accrued
          fees and advance due to General Partner and  affiliates"  presented on
          the balance sheet consists of the following:

Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations

This  Quarterly  Report  contains  forward-looking   statements  concerning  the
Partnership's anticipated future revenues and earnings,  adequacy of future cash
flow and related matters. These forward-looking  statements include, but are not
limited to, statements containing the words "expect",  "believe", "will", "may",
"should", "project", "estimate", and like expressions, and the negative thereof.
These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties  that could cause actual
results to differ materially from the statements, including competition, as well
as those  risks  described  in the  Partnership's  SEC  reports,  including  the
Partnership's  Form 10-K filed  pursuant to the  Securities  and Exchange Act of
1934 on June 29, 2000.

The following discussion and analysis compares the results of operations for the
fiscal  quarter ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,  and should be read in conjunction
with the condensed  consolidated  financial  statements and  accompanying  notes
included within this report.

Financial Condition

The  Partnership's  assets at June 30, 2000  consisted  primarily of $152,000 in
cash and aggregate investments in the twenty-seven Local Limited Partnerships of
$995,000.  Liabilities  at June 30, 2000  primarily  consisted of  $1,231,000 of
accrued annual management fees due to the General Partner.

Results of Operations

Three Months  Ended June 30, 2000  Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 1999.
The  Partnership's  net loss  for the  three  months  ended  June  30,  2000 was
$(89,000), reflecting a decrease of $3,000 from the net loss experienced for the
three  months  ended  June 30,  1999 of  $(92,000).  The  decline in net loss is
primarily  due to equity in losses of limited  partnerships  which  declined  by
$3,000 to $(46,000) for the three months ended June 30, 2000 from  $(49,000) for
the  three  months  ended  June 30,  1999.  This  decrease  was a result  of the
Partnership  not recognizing  certain losses of the Local Limited  Partnerships.
The  investments in such Local Limited  Partnerships  had reached $0 at June 30,
2000.  Since the  Partnership's  liability  with respect to its  investments  is
limited,  losses in excess of  investment  are not  recognized.  Along  with the
decrease in equity in losses of limited  partnerships,  there was an increase in
loss from  operations  of $1,000 for the three  months  ended  June 30,  2000 to
$(44,000), from $(43,000) for the three months ended June 30, 1999, due to a net
decrease in miscellaneous income.

Cash Flows

Three Months  Ended June 30, 2000  Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 1999.
Net cash  provided  during  the three  months  ended  June 30,  2000 was  $1,000
compared to cash  provided  for the three  months ended June 30, 1999 of $5,000.
The change was due  primarily  to an  increase  in  operating  expenses  paid of
$5,000,  offset by an increase in  distributions  from limited  partnerships  of
$1,000.

During the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,  accrued  payables,  which
consist  primarily of related party  management fees due to the General Partner,
increased by $36,000. The General Partner does not anticipate that these accrued
fees will be paid until such time as  capital  reserves  are in excess of future
foreseeable working capital requirements of the partnership.

The Partnership  expects its future cash flows,  together with its net available
assets at June 30, 2000,  to be  sufficient  to meet all  currently  foreseeable
future cash requirements.

Impact of Year 2000

WNC & Associates, Inc.

Status of Readiness

Information Technology (IT) Systems. The Partnership relies on the IT systems of
WNC, its ultimate  general  partner.  IT systems include  computer  hardware and
software  used to produce  financial  reports and tax return  information.  This
information  is then  used to  generate  reports  to  investors  and  regulatory
agencies, including the Internal Revenue Service and the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The IT systems of WNC are year 2000 compliant.

Non-IT Systems. The Partnership also relies on the non-IT systems of WNC. Non-IT
systems  include  machinery and  equipment  such as  telephones,  voice mail and
electronic postage equipment. The non-IT systems of WNC are year 2000 compliant.

Service  Providers.  WNC also  relies on the IT and  non-IT  systems  of service
providers. Service providers include utility companies,  financial institutions,
telecommunications carriers,  municipalities, and other outside vendors. WNC has
obtained verbal assurances from its material service providers (electrical power
provider,  financial institutions and telecommunications carriers) that their IT
and non-IT systems are year 2000  compliant.  To date,  WNC has not  encountered
significant year 2000 issues or business disruptions from its service providers.

Costs to Address Year 2000 Issues

The cost to address year 2000 issues for WNC has been less than $25,000.

Risk of Year 2000 Issues

Although WNC has  encountered no significant  year 2000 issues to date, the most
reasonable  and likely result from  non-year  2000  compliance of systems of the
service  providers  noted  above  would be the  disruption  of  normal  business
operations for WNC. This disruption could, in turn, lead to delays in performing
reporting and fiduciary responsibilities on behalf of the Partnership. The worst
case scenario would be the replacement of a service provider. These delays would
likely  be  temporary  and  would  likely  not  have a  material  effect  on the
Partnership or WNC.

Local Limited Partnerships

Status of Readiness

To date, WNC and the  Partnership  have  encountered  no  significant  year 2000
issues with respect to the Local Limited Partnerships.

Costs to Address Year 2000 Issues

There has been and will be no cost to the  Partnership  as a result of assessing
year 2000 issues for the Local  Limited  Partnerships.  Although no  significant
year 2000 issues have been  encountered to date, the cost to deal with potential
year 2000 issues of the Local Limited  Partnerships  cannot be estimated at this
time.

Risk of Year 2000 Issues

Although no significant  year 2000 issues have been  encountered to date,  there
can be no assurance that the Partnership will be unaffected by year 2000 issues.
The most  reasonable and likely result from non-year 2000 compliance will be the
disruption of normal  business  operations  for the Local Limited  Partnerships,
including but not limited to the possible  failure to properly collect rents and
meet their obligations in a timely manner.  This disruption would, in turn, lead
to  delays  by the  Local  Limited  Partnerships  in  performing  reporting  and
fiduciary responsibilities on behalf of the Partnership. The worst-case scenario
would  include the  initiation  of  foreclosure  proceedings  on the property by
mortgage debt holders.  Under these  circumstances,  WNC or its affiliates  will
take  actions  necessary  to minimize  the risk of  foreclosure,  including  the
removal and  replacement of a Local General  Partner by the  Partnership.  These
delays would likely be temporary and would likely not have a material  effect on
the Partnership or WNC.
