PART I
Item 1. Business
Boston Financial Tax Credit Fund Plus, A Limited Partnership (the "Fund") is a
Massachusetts limited partnership formed on December 10, 1990 under the laws of
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The Fund's partnership agreement
("Partnership Agreement") authorized the sale of up to 100,000 Class A and Class
B units of Limited Partnership Interest ("Class A Units" and "Class B Units";
Class A Units and Class B Units are collectively called "Units") at $1,000 per
Unit, adjusted for certain discounts. The Fund raised $37,932,300 ("Gross
Proceeds"), net of discounts of $700, through the sale of 34,643 Class A Units
and 3,290 Class B Units. Such amounts exclude five unregistered Units previously
acquired for $5,000 by the Initial Limited Partner, which is also one of the
General Partners. The offering of Units terminated on January 11, 1993.
An affiliate of the Managing General Partner, BF Texas Limited Partnership, was
admitted as an additional Local General Partner with responsibility for all
management decisions in three Local Limited Partnerships in which the Fund had
invested (the "Texas Partnerships"). As a result, the Fund was deemed to have
control over the Texas Partnerships and the accompanying financial statements
are presented in combined form ("Combined Financial Statements") to conform with
the required accounting treatment under generally accepted accounting
principles. However, this change only affects the presentation of the Fund's
operating results, not the business of the Fund. Accordingly, presentation of
information about industry segments is not applicable and would not be material
to an understanding of the Fund's business taken as a whole. As described more
fully under Item 7 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations, the Managing General Partner transferred all of the
assets of two of the Texas Partnerships on May 31, 1996, subject to their
liabilities to unaffiliated entities. On September 27, 1997, the Managing
General Partner transferred all of the assets of the remaining Texas Partnership
(Leatherwood), subject to its liabilities, to an unaffiliated entity. Therefore,
as of March 31, 1998, Leatherwood's net loss through the date of transfer was
presented in combined form. As of March 31, 1999, the Fund is no longer
presented in combined form.
The Fund has invested as a limited partner in other limited partnerships ("Local
Limited Partnerships") which own and operate residential apartment complexes
("Properties"), some of which benefit from some form of federal, state or local
assistance programs, and all of which qualify for low-income housing tax credits
("Tax Credits") added to the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") by the Tax
Reform Act of 1986. The Fund also invested in, for the benefit of the Class B
Limited Partners, United States Treasury obligations from which the interest
coupons have been stripped or in such coupons themselves (collectively "Treasury
STRIPS"). The Fund used approximately 28% of the Class B Limited Partners'
capital contributions to purchase Treasury STRIPS with maturities of 13 to 18
years, with a total redemption amount equal to the Class B Limited Partners'
capital contributions. The investment objectives of the Fund include the
following: (i) to provide investors with annual tax credits which they may use
to reduce their federal income taxes; (ii) to provide limited cash distributions
from the operations of apartment complexes; (iii) to preserve and protect the
Fund's capital with the possibility of realizing a profit through the sale or
refinancing of apartment complexes; and (iv) to provide payments to Class B
Limited Partners from Treasury STRIPS. There cannot be any assurance that the
Fund will attain any or all of these investment objectives. A more detailed
discussion of these investments objectives, along with the risk in achieving
them, is contained in the sections of the Prospectus entitled "Investment
Objectives and Policies Principal Investment Objectives" and "Investment Risks",
which are herein incorporated by this reference.
Table A on the following page lists the Properties owned by the Local Limited
Partnerships in which the Fund has invested. Item 7 of this Report on Form 10-K
contains other significant information with respect to such Local Limited
Partnerships. The terms of the acquisition of each Local Limited Partnership
interest have been described in six supplements to the Prospectus and five Form
8-K filings which were collected in Post-effective Amendment No. 5 to the
Registration Statement (collectively, the "Acquisition Reports"); such
descriptions are incorporated herein by this reference.

<PAGE>
As previously reported, due to construction and other problems at Villas de
Montellano in Morovis, Puerto Rico, the Managing General Partner has abandoned
its interest in this Local Limited Partnership to the Local General Partner.
Also, as previously reported, the Managing General Partner elected to exercise
its rights under the Repurchase Agreement and requested from the Local General
Partner and the Guarantor the repayment of the capital contributions advanced by
the Fund and of certain expenses associated with this investment. However, the
Local General Partner and the Guarantor filed for bankruptcy in May and August
1994, respectively, and it is unlikely that they will meet all of their
obligations under the Repurchase Agreement. The Fund has engaged counsel to
vigorously pursue the Fund's claim in the Bankruptcy Court. The Fund wrote off
this investment in Fiscal 1996.
Although the Fund's investments in Local Limited Partnerships are not subject to
seasonal fluctuations, the Fund's equity in losses of Local Limited
Partnerships, to the extent it reflects the operations of individual Properties,
may vary from quarter to quarter based upon changes in occupancy and operating
expenses as a result of seasonal factors.
Each Local Limited Partnership (except the Texas Partnerships) has, as its
general partners ("Local General Partners"), one or more individuals or entities
not affiliated with the Fund or its General Partners. In accordance with the
partnership agreements under which such entities are organized ("Local Limited
Partnership Agreements"), the Fund depends on the Local General Partners for the
management of each Local Limited Partnership. As of March 31, 1999, the
following Local Limited Partnerships have a common Local General Partner or
affiliated group of Local General Partners accounting for the specified
percentage of the capital contributions to Local Limited Partnerships: (i) Tree
Trail and Meadow Wood, representing 14.14%, have Flournoy Development Company
and John Flournoy as Local General Partners; (ii) Long Creek Court, Atkins Glen,
Kings Grant Court and Chestnut Plains, representing 5.04%, have Gordon Blackwell
and MBG Investment Inc. as Local General Partners; (iii) Phoenix Housing,
Primrose and Sycamore, representing 3.33%, have Jerry Meide (see discussion
below) and/or certain affiliates as Local General Partners (Phoenix Housing has
Phoenix Housing, Inc. and RRABB, Inc., Primrose has RRABB, Inc., and Sycamore
has Jerry Meide and RRABB, Inc.); and (iv) Pilot House and Preston Place,
representing 17.77%, have Castle Development Corporation as Local General
Partners. The Local General Partners of the remaining Local Limited Partnerships
are identified in the Acquisition Reports, which are herein incorporated by
reference.
On November 10, 1997, the Fund transferred 50% of its interest in capital and
profits of Phoenix Housing, Primrose and Sycamore to the local general partner.
Included in these transfers is a put option granting the Managing General
Partner the right to put the Fund's remaining interest to the local general
partner any time after one year has elapsed. These properties represent 3.33% of
capital contributions.
The properties owned by Local Limited Partnerships in which the Fund has
invested are, and will continue to be, subject to competition from existing and
future apartment complexes in the same areas. The continued success of the Fund
will depend on many outside factors, most of which are beyond the control of the
Fund and which cannot be predicted at this time. Such factors include general
economic and real estate market conditions, both on a national basis and in
those areas where the properties are located, the availability and cost of
borrowed funds, real estate tax rates, operating expenses, energy costs and
government regulations. In addition, other risks inherent in real estate
investment may influence the ultimate success of the Fund, including: (i)
possible reduction in rental income due to an inability to maintain high
occupancy levels or adequate rental levels; (ii) possible adverse changes in
general economic conditions and adverse local conditions, such as competitive
overbuilding, a decrease in employment or adverse changes in real estate laws,
including building codes; and (iii) possible future adoption of rent control
legislation which would not permit increased costs to be passed on to the
tenants in the form of rent increases or which suppresses the ability of the
Local Limited Partnerships to generate operating cash flow. Since most of the
properties benefit from some form of government assistance, the Fund is subject
to the risks inherent in that area including decreased subsidies, difficulties
in finding suitable tenants and obtaining permission for rent increases. In
addition, any Tax Credits allocated to investors with respect to a property are
subject to recapture to the extent that the property or any portion thereof
ceases to qualify for the Tax Credits.
The Fund is managed by Arch Street VI, Inc., the Managing General Partner of the
Fund. The other General Partner of the Fund is Arch Street VI Limited
Partnership. The Fund, which does not have any employees, reimburses The Boston
Financial Group Limited Partnership, an affiliate of the General Partners, for
certain expenses and overhead costs. A complete discussion of the management of
the Fund is set forth in Item 10 of this Report.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Properties
Following the transfer of the three Texas Partnerships and Capitol Park and the
disposition of Villas de Montellano, the Fund owns limited partnership interests
in twenty-five Local Limited Partnerships, which own and operate Properties,
some of which benefit from some form of federal, state or local assistance
programs and all of which qualify for the Tax Credits added to the Code by the
Tax Reform Act of 1986. The Fund's ownership interest in each Local Limited
Partnership is 99%, except for Livingston Arms, Metropolitan and New Garden
Place, where the Fund's ownership interests are 82%, 98.75% and 97.9%,
respectively, and Phoenix Housing, Primrose and Sycamore, where the Fund's
ownership is 49.5%.
Each of the Local Limited Partnerships has received an allocation of Tax Credits
from its relevant state tax credit agency. In general, the Tax Credit runs for
ten years from the date the Property is placed in service. The required holding
period (the "Compliance Period") of the Properties is fifteen years. During
these fifteen years, the Properties must satisfy rent restrictions, tenant
income limitations and other requirements, as promulgated by the Internal
Revenue Service, in order to maintain eligibility for the Tax Credit at all
times during the Compliance Period. Once a Local Limited Partnership has become
eligible for the Tax Credits, it may lose such eligibility and suffer an event
of recapture if its Property fails to remain in compliance with the
requirements.
In addition, some of the Local Limited Partnerships have obtained one or a
combination of different types of loans such as: i) below market rate interest
loans; ii) loans provided by a redevelopment agency of the town or city in which
the property is located at favorable terms; and iii) loans with repayment terms
that are based on a percentage of cash flow.
The schedules on the following pages provide certain key information on the
Local Limited Partnership interests acquired by the Fund.

* FmHA This subsidy, which is authorized under Section 515 of the
Housing Act of 1949, can be one or a combination of many
different types. For instance, FmHA may provide: 1) direct
below-market-rate mortgage loans for rural rental housing;
2) mortgage interest subsidies which effectively lower the
interest rate of the loan to 1%; 3) a rental assistance subsidy
to tenants which allows them to pay no more than 30% of their
monthly income as rent with the balance paid by the federal
government; or 4) a combination of any of the above.
Section 8 This subsidy, which is authorized under Section 8 of Title II
of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, allows
qualified low-income tenants to pay 30% of their monthly income
as rent with the balance paid by the federal government.
(A) As of March 31, 1998, the Managing General Partner transferred all of
the assets of the three Texas Partnerships (Tamaric, Northwest and Leatherwood)
subject to their liabilities to unaffiliated entities. The three Texas
Partnerships had total capital contributions and mortgage payable amounts of
$328,434 and $1,467,017, respectively, at the date of transfer.
(B) As of March 31, 1998, the Managing General Partner transferred
the title of Prince Hall Housing Associates, Limited Partnership
to an affiliated entity. The Partnership had total capital
contributions and mortgagee payable amounts of $1,495,000 and
$1,570,000, respectively, as of December 31, 1996.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
Except for certain claims made by the Fund against the Local General Partner and
the Guarantor of Villas De Montellano and the Texas Partnerships in connection
with their bankruptcy proceedings, the Fund is not a party to any pending legal
or administrative proceeding, and to the best of its knowledge, no legal or
administrative proceeding is threatened or contemplated against it.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
None.
PART II
Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Units and Related Security Holder Matters
There is no public market for the Units, and it is not expected that a public
market will develop. If a Limited Partner desires to sell Units, the buyer of
those Units will be required to comply with the minimum purchase and retention
requirements and investor suitability standards imposed by applicable federal or
state securities laws and the minimum purchase and retention requirements
imposed by the Fund. The price to be paid for the Units, as well as the
commissions to be received by any participating broker-dealers, will be subject
to negotiation by the Limited Partner seeking to sell his Units. Units will not
be redeemed or repurchased by the Fund.
The Partnership Agreement does not impose on the Fund or its General Partners
any obligation to obtain periodic appraisals of assets or to provide Limited
Partners with any estimates of the current value of Units.
As of June 15, 1999, there were 2,033 record holders of Units of the Fund.
To date, the Fund has made no cash distributions.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Certain matters discussed herein constitute forward-looking statements within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The
Fund intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor
provisions for forward-looking statements and are including this statement for
purposes of complying with these safe harbor provisions. Although the Fund
believes the forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions,
the Fund can give no assurance that their expectations will be attained. Actual
results and timing of certain events could differ materially from those
projected in or contemplated by the forward-looking statements due to a number
of factors, including, without limitation, general economic and real estate
conditions, interest rates and unanticipated delays or expenses on the part of
the Fund and their suppliers in achieving year 2000 compliance.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 1999, the Fund had cash and cash equivalents of $87,134 as compared
with $216,829 at March 31, 1998. The decrease is primarily attributable to cash
used for operations. These decreases are partially offset by proceeds from sales
and maturities of marketable securities in excess of purchases of marketable
securities and cash distributions received from Local Limited Partnerships.
Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Fund initially designated 4%
of the Adjusted Gross Proceeds (which generally means Gross Proceeds minus the
amounts committed to the acquisition of Treasury STRIPS) from the sale of Units
as a reserve for working capital of the Fund and contingencies related to the
ownership of Local Limited Partnership interests. The Managing General Partner
may increase or decrease such Reserves from time to time, as it deems
appropriate. Funds totaling approximately $340,000 have been withdrawn from the
Reserve account to pay legal and other fees relating to various property issues.
This amount includes approximately $304,000 relating to the Texas Partnerships.
At March 31, 1999, approximately $989,000 of cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities have been designated as Reserves. Management believes that
the investment income earned on the Reserves, along with cash distributions
received from Local Limited Partnerships, to the extent available, will be
sufficient to fund the Fund's ongoing operations. Reserves may be used to fund
operating deficits, if the Managing General Partner deems funding appropriate.
If Reserves are not adequate to cover Fund operations, the Fund will seek other
funding sources including, but not limited to, the deferral of Asset Management
Fees to an affiliate of the General Partner or working with Local Limited
Partnerships to increase cash distributions.
At March 31, 1999, the Fund has committed to make future capital contributions
and pay future purchase price installments on its investments in Local Limited
Partnerships. These future payments are contingent upon the achievement of
certain criteria as set forth in the Local Limited Partnership Agreements and
total approximately $240,000.
Since the Fund invests as a limited partner, the Fund has no contractual duty to
provide additional funds to Local Limited Partnerships beyond its specified
investment. Thus, at March 31, 1999, the Fund had no contractual or other
obligation to any Local Limited Partnership which had not been paid or provided
for, except as noted above. In the event a Local Limited Partnership encounters
operating difficulties requiring additional funds, the Fund might deem it in its
best interests to provide such funds, voluntarily, in order to protect its
investment.
Cash Distributions
No cash distributions were made during the years ended March 31, 1999, 1998 or
1997. It is not expected that cash available for distribution, if any, will be
significant during the 1999 calendar year. As funds from temporary investments
are paid to Local Limited Partnerships, interest earned on those funds
decreases. Additionally, it is not expected that the Local Limited Partnerships
will distribute significant amounts of cash to the Fund in 1999 because such
amounts will be needed to fund property operating costs. In addition, many of
the properties benefit from some type of federal or state subsidy and, as a
consequence, are subject to restrictions on cash distributions.
<PAGE>
Results of Operations
1999 versus 1998
The Fund's result of operations for the year ended March 31, 1999 resulted in a
net loss of $1,597,697 as compared to a net loss of $3,302,890 for the same
period in 1998. The decrease in net loss is primarily attributable to a
provision for valuation of investments in Local Limited Partnerships in 1998.
This decrease to net loss is partially offset by a decrease in depreciation, bad
debt expense, interest expense and rental operations as a result of the transfer
of the remaining Texas Partnership in the prior fiscal year.
1998 versus 1997
The Fund's result of operations for the year ended March 31, 1998 resulted in a
net loss of $ 3,302,890 as compared to a net loss of $2,822,852 for the same
period in 1997. The increase in net loss is primarily attributable to a
provision for valuation of Investments in Local Limited Partnerships because
there was evidence of non-temporary declines in the recoverable amount of four
investments. This increase to net loss is partially offset by decrease in equity
in losses of Local Limited Partnerships. The decrease in equity in losses of
Local Limited Partnerships is primarily due to the transfer of Capitol Park to
an affiliated entity.
Low Income Housing Tax Credits
The 1998 Tax Credits per Unit were $144.63 and $104.13 for Class A Unit and
Class B Unit investors, respectively. The 1997 Tax Credits per Unit were $144.63
and $104.13 for Class A Unit and Class B Unit investors, respectively.
The 1996 Tax Credits per Unit were $154.33 and $111.12 for Class A Unit and
Class B Unit investors, respectively. The 1995 Tax Credits per Unit were $154.90
and $111.52 for Class A Unit and Class B Unit investors, respectively. The 1994
Tax Credits per Unit were $130.70 and $94.10 for Class A Unit and Class B Unit
investors, respectively. Tax Credits are not available for a Property until the
property is placed in service and its apartment units are occupied by qualified
tenants. In the first year the Tax Credit is claimed, the allowable credit
amount is determined using an averaging convention to reflect the number of
months that apartment units comprising the qualified basis were occupied by
qualified tenants during the year. To the extent that the full amount of the
annual credit is not allocated in the first year, an additional credit equal to
the difference is available in the 11th taxable year. The transfer of ownership
of the Texas Partnerships resulted in nominal recapture of tax credits, since
the Texas Partnerships represented only 2% of the Fund's Tax Credits.
The Managing General Partner estimates that the 1999 Tax Credits allocated to
investors will be approximately $145 per Unit for Class A Unit investors and
$104 per Unit for Class B Unit investors. However, no assurance can be given in
this matter. Once the Tax Credits are stabilized, the annual amount allocated to
investors is expected to remain the same for about seven years. In years eight
through ten, the credits are expected to decrease as Properties reach the end of
the ten year credit period.
On November 10, 1997, the Fund transferred 50% of its interest in Phoenix
Housing, Primrose and Sycamore to the Local General Partner in order to protect
the Fund in the event of foreclosure-induced recapture of these Tax Credits.
Property Discussions
Limited Partnership interests had been originally acquired in thirty Local
Limited Partnerships. Of the remaining twenty-five Local Limited Partnership,
which are located in fourteen states, seven of the properties, totaling 438
units, were existing properties undergoing rehabilitation and eighteen of the
properties, consisting of 1246 units, were new construction.
All of the properties owned by the Local Limited Partnerships in which the Fund
has invested have been completed and have achieved initial lease-up. Operations
at most properties are stable, and a majority of the properties are operating at
break-even or generating operating cash flow. However, a few properties are
experiencing significant issues. In most cases, the Local General Partners are
funding operating deficits through project expense loans, subordinated loans or
payments from operating escrows. In instances where the Local General Partners
have stopped funding deficits because their obligation to do so has expired or
otherwise, the Managing General Partner is working with the Local General
Partner to increase operating income, reduce expenses or refinance the debt in
order to improve property cash flow.
As previously reported, Bancroft Street Apartments, located in Toledo, Ohio,
continues to experience significant operating deficits due to occupancy issues
and deteriorating market conditions. Occupancy as of March 31, 1999 was 56%. The
management agent is trying to address these problems by enhancing tenant
screening and marketing efforts, as well as implementing on-site tenant social
programs. However, given the severity of the operating deficits, it is possible
that the Fund will not be able to retain its interest in the property through
1999. A foreclosure would result in recapture of credits for investors, the
allocation of taxable income to the Fund and loss of future benefits associated
with this property. The Managing General Partner and Local General Partner are
currently in negotiations with the lender. The Managing General Partner is
closely monitoring this property.
Occupancy for Broadway Tower, located in Revere, Massachusetts, has improved to
98% as of March 31, 1999. However, the property is still experiencing some
operating deficits. As previously reported, in 1997 the Local General Partner
successfully negotiated with the local housing authority for Section 8 rent
increases and has begun implementing plans to decrease expenses associated with
tenant turnover and maintenance contracts. The property is currently covering
its operating expenses and debt service with funds from operations and from
funding by the Local General Partner. The Managing General Partner continues to
closely monitor this property.
As previously reported, Metropolitan Apartments, located in Chicago, Illinois,
has been experiencing occupancy problems. In 1998, management revised its
marketing plan and implemented new leasing policies. Occupancy as of December
31, 1998 remained the same as the previous quarter at 90%. However, the property
continues to operate at a deficit. It is possible that Fund Reserves may be
required to fund operating deficits. The Managing General Partner and Local
General Partner are working together to develop a plan to help mitigate some of
the deficits.
Primrose, located in Grand Forks, North Dakota, Phoenix Housing, located in
Moorhead, Minnesota, and Sycamore, located in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, which
have the same Local General Partner, have been performing satisfactorily.
However, affiliates of the Managing General Partner have been working with the
Local General Partner who has raised some concerns over the long-term financial
health of the properties. In 1997, in an effort to reduce possible future risk,
the Managing General Partner consummated the transfer of 50% of the Fund's
capital and profits in Primrose, Phoenix Housing and Sycamore to an affiliate of
the Local General Partner. The Managing General Partner has the right to
transfer the Fund's remaining interest to the Local General Partner any time
after one year has elapsed. The Fund will retain its full share of tax credits
until such time as the remaining interest is put to the Local General Partner.
In addition, the Local General Partner has the right to call the remaining
interest after the tax credit period has expired.
Findley Place Apartments, located in Minneapolis, MN, has been experiencing
operating deficits due to significant capital needs. In November 1998, the
Managing General Partners replaced the management company. The Managing General
Partner, the Local General Partner and the new management agent are working
together to develop a plan that will address the occupancy issues, capital needs
and long-term strategy for this property. The Managing General Partner is
closely monitoring this property.
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standard No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of",
the Fund has implemented policies and practices for assessing impairment of its
real estate assets and investments in Local Limited Partnerships. Each asset is
analyzed by real estate experts to determine if an impairment indicator exists.
If so, the carrying value is compared to the undiscounted future cash flows
expected to be derived from the asset and, if there is a significant impairment
in value, a provision to write down the asset to fair value will be charged
against income.
<PAGE>
Inflation and Other Economic Factors
Inflation had no material impact on the operations or financial condition of the
Fund for the years ended March 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997.
Since most of the Properties benefit from some form of government assistance,
the Fund is subject to the risks inherent in that area including decreased
subsidies, difficulties in finding suitable tenants and obtaining permission for
rent increases. In addition, any Tax Credits allocated to investors with respect
to a Property are subject to recapture to the extent that a Property or any
portion thereof ceases to qualify for the Tax Credits.
Certain of the Properties in which the Fund has invested are located in areas
suffering from poor economic conditions. Such conditions could have an adverse
effect on the rent or occupancy levels at such Properties. Nevertheless,
management believes that the generally high demand for below market rate housing
will tend to negate such factors. However, no assurance can be given in this
regard.
Impact of Year 2000
The Managing General Partner's plan to resolve year 2000 issues involves the
following four phases: assessment, remediation, testing and implementation. To
date, the Managing General Partner has fully completed an assessment of all
information systems that may not be operative subsequent to 1999 and has begun
the remediation, testing and implementation phase on both hardware and software
systems. Because the hardware and software systems of both the Fund and Local
Limited Partnerships are generally the responsibility of obligated third
parties, the plan primarily involves ongoing discussions with and obtaining
written assurances from these third parties that pertinent systems will be 2000
compliant. In addition, neither the Fund nor the Local Limited Partnerships are
incurring significant additional costs since such expenses are principally
covered under the service contracts with vendors. As of June 1999, the General
Partner is in the final stages of its Year 2000 remediation plan and believes
all major systems are compliants; any systems still being updated are not
considered significant to the Fund's operations. However, despite the likelihood
that all significant year 2000 issues are expected to be resolved in a timely
manner, the Managing General Partner has no means of ensuring that all systems
of outside vendors or other entities that impact operations will be 2000
compliant. The Managing General Partner does not believe that the inability of
third parties to address their year 2000 issues in a timely manner will have a
material impact on the Fund. However, the effect of non-compliance by third
parties is not readily determinable.
Management has also evaluated a worst case scenario projection with respect to
the year 2000 and expects any resulting disruption of either the Managing
General Partner's activities or any Local Limited Partnership's operations to be
short-term inconveniences. Such problems, however, are not likely to fully
impede the ability to carry out necessary duties of the Fund. Moreover, because
expected problems under a worst case scenario are not extensively detrimental,
and because the likelihood that all systems affecting the Fund will be compliant
before 2000, the Managing General Partner has determined that a formal
contingency plan that responds to material system failures is not necessary.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
The Fund has invested in marketable securities with aggregate fair values of
$1,183,905 at March 31, 1999; these securities, with rates ranging from 4.87% to
7.27%, do not subject the Fund to significant market risk due to their short
term maturities and high liquidity.
In addition, the Fund has invested in United States Treasury obligations with
fixed rates ranging from 7.3% to 8.0%. The Partnership will receive a total of
$3,290,000 at staggered maturity dates ranging from 2007 to 2010.
The Fund has no other exposure to market risk associated with activities in
derivative financial instruments, derivative commodity instruments, or other
financial instruments.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Partners
Boston Financial Tax Credit Fund Plus, A Limited Partnership:
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the
combined financial statements listed in the accompanying index present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Boston Financial Tax Credit
Fund Plus, A Limited Partnership (the "Fund") at March 31, 1999 and 1998, and
the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended March 31, 1999, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement
schedule listed in the accompanying index presents fairly, in all material
respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the
related combined financial statements. These financial statements and financial
statement schedule are the responsibility of the Partnership's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial statement schedule based on our audits. We did not audit the financial
statements of certain local limited partnerships for which total assets of
$15,061,725 and $16,285,431, are included in these financial statements as of
March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and for which net losses of $1,106,095,
1,263,876, and $2,247,934 are included in the accompanying financial statements
as of March 31, 1999, 1998, 1997, respectively. . Those statements were audited
by other auditors whose reports to the amounts included for the Local Limited
Partnerships, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. We conducted
our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards which 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 examing, 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, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits and the reports of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for the
opinions expressed above.

BOSTON FINANCIAL TAX CREDIT FUND PLUS
(A Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO THE COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization
Boston Financial Tax Credit Fund Plus, A Limited Partnership (the "Fund") is a
Massachusetts limited partnership organized to invest in other limited
partnerships ("Local Limited Partnerships") which own and operate apartment
complexes which are eligible for low income housing tax credits that may be
applied against the federal income tax liability of an investor. The Fund also
invests in, for the benefit of the Class B Limited Partners, United States
Treasury obligations from which the interest coupons have been stripped or in
such interest coupons themselves (collectively "Treasury STRIPS"). The Fund used
approximately 28% of the Class B Limited Partners' capital contributions to
purchase Treasury STRIPS with maturities of 13 to 18 years, with a total
redemption amount equal to the Class B Limited Partners' capital contributions.
Arch Street VI, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation ("Arch Street, Inc."), is the
Managing General Partner of the Fund. Arch Street VI Limited Partnership ("Arch
Street L.P."), a Massachusetts limited partnership whose general partner
consists of Arch Street, Inc., is also a General Partner. Both of the General
Partners are affiliates of The Boston Financial Group Limited Partnership, a
Massachusetts limited partnership ("Boston Financial"). An affiliate of the
General Partners ("SLP Affiliate") is a special limited partner in each Local
Limited Partnership in which the Fund invests, with the right to become a
general partner under certain circumstances. The fiscal year of the Fund ends on
March 31.
The Fund offered two classes of Limited Partnership Interests - Class A Limited
Partnership Interests, represented by Class A Units, and Class B Limited
Partnership Interests, represented by Class B Units. The capital contributions
of Class A Limited Partners available for investment by the Fund are invested
entirely in Local Limited Partnerships. The capital contributions of Class B
Limited Partners available for investment by the Fund are invested partially in
Local Limited Partnerships and partially in Treasury STRIPS.
The Partnership Agreement authorized the sale of up to 100,000 Units of limited
partnership interests ("Units") at $1,000 per Unit. Boston Financial Securities,
Inc., an affiliate of the General Partners, received selling commissions and
underwriting advisory fees in the amount of 7.0% and 1.5%, respectively, of the
Class A Gross Proceeds and 5.04% and 1.08%, respectively, of the Class B Gross
Proceeds for Units sold by the entity as a soliciting dealer. On January 11,
1994, the Fund held its final investor closing. In total, the Fund received
$34,642,300 of capital contributions, net of discounts, from investors admitted
as Class A Limited Partners for 34,643 Units and $3,290,000 of capital
contributions, net of discounts, from investors admitted as Class B Limited
Partners for 3,290 Units.
The Partnership Agreement provides that all cash available for distribution will
be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners. Sale or
refinancing proceeds generally will be distributed first to the Limited Partners
in an amount equal to their adjusted capital contributions, second to the
General Partners in an amount equal to their capital contributions, third to the
General Partners (after payment of the 6% return as set forth in Section 4.2.3
of the Partnership Agreement and of any accrued but unpaid Subordinated
Disposition Fee) in such amount as is necessary to cause the General Partners to
have received 5% of all distributions to the Partners and lastly, 95% to the
Limited Partners and 5% to the General Partners.
Profits and losses for tax purposes arising from general operations and tax
credits generally will be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the
General Partners. However, as set forth in the Partnership Agreement, profits
and losses for tax purposes arising from a sale or refinancing generally will be
allocated among the Partners in such manner as is necessary to cause their
respective capital accounts to reflect the amount that would be distributable to
them in accordance with the priorities set forth in the preceding paragraph, if
all of the Fund's assets were sold for their federal adjusted basis and the Fund
were then liquidated.

NOTES TO THE COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
1. Organization (continued)
All distributions of cash available for distribution or distributions of sale or
refinancing proceeds, and all allocations of profits and losses for tax purposes
from normal operations and from a sale or refinancing or of tax credits, which
are distributed or allocated to the General Partners, will be allocated 1% to
Arch Street, Inc. and 99% to Arch Street L.P.
Because each class of Limited Partners had a different amount of its capital
contribution available for investment by the Fund in Local Limited Partnerships
(100% for Class A Limited Partners and approximately 72% for Class B Limited
Partners), the two classes of Limited Partners have different percentage
participation as to cash distributions, sale or refinancing proceeds and
allocation of profits, losses and credits attributable to investments in Local
Limited Partnerships. As such, profits and losses for financial reporting
purposes are allocated 1% to the General Partners, 92.66% to the Class A Limited
Partners and 6.34% to the Class B Limited Partners. All profits and losses and
cash distributions attributable to Treasury STRIPS are allocable only to Class B
Limited Partners.
Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, the Fund initially designated 4%
of the Adjusted Gross Proceeds (which generally means Gross Proceeds minus the
amounts committed to the acquisition of Treasury STRIPS) from the sale of Units
as a reserve for working capital of the Fund and contingencies related to
ownership of Local Limited Partnership interests. The Managing General Partner
may increase or decrease such amounts from time to time, as it deems
appropriate. At March 31, 1999, the Managing General Partner has designated
approximately $989,000 of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as
such Reserve.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Combination
The Fund accounts for its investments in Local Limited Partnerships with the
exception of the Combined Entities through the date of disposition using the
equity method of accounting because the Fund does not have a majority control
over the major operating and financial policies of the Local Limited Partner-
ships in which it invests. Under the equity method, the investment is carried
at cost, adjusted for the Fund's share of income or loss of the Local Limited
Partnership, additional investments in and cash distributions from the Local
Limited Partnerships. Equity in income or loss of the Local Limited Partnerships
is included currently in the Fund's operations. The Fund has no obligation to
fund liabilities of the Local Limited Partnership beyond its investment and
therefore a Local Limited Partnership's investment will not be carried below
zero. To the extent that equity losses are incurred when a Local Limited
Partnership's respective investment value has been reduced to zero, the losses
will be suspended to be used against future income. Distributions received
from Local Limited Partnerships whose respective investment value has been
reduced to zero are included in income.
Excess investment costs over the underlying net assets acquired have arisen from
acquisition fees paid and expenses reimbursed to an affiliate of the Fund. These
fees and expenses are included in Investments in Local Limited Partnerships and
are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 35 years.
In October of 1993, an affiliate of the Fund's Managing General Partners, BF
Texas Limited Partnership, became an additional Local General Partner in three
Local Limited Partnerships (the "Texas Partnerships"). As such, as of November
1, 1993, the Fund was deemed to have a controlling financial interest over the
Texas Partnerships, as set forth in paragraph 22 of ARB 51. During the year
ended March 31, 1996, control of two of these Texas Partnerships was transferred
to unrelated parties, and as such, as of that date, these Local Limited
Partnerships were accounted for on the equity method (see Note 8). During the
year ended March 31, 1997, the Managing General Partner transferred all of the
assets of these two Texas Partnerships subject to their liabilities to
unaffiliated entities. As previously reported, as of March 31, 1998 the Managing
General Partner transferred all of the assets of the remaining Combined Entity,
Leatherwood, subject to its liabilities, to an unaffiliated entity.

2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Basis of Presentation and Combination (continued)
The General Partner has decided to report results of the Local Limited
Partnerships on a 90-day lag basis, because the Local Limited Partnerships
report their results on a calendar year basis. Accordingly, the financial
information of the Local Limited Partnerships that is included in the
accompanying combined financial statements is as of December 31, 1998, 1997 and
1996. As used herein, the "Combined Entities" refers to the Texas Partnership,
prior to the transfer of control and ownership referenced above.
The Fund recognizes a decline in the carrying value of its investments in Local
Limited Partnerships when there is evidence of a non-temporary decline in the
recoverable amount of the investment. There is a possibility that the estimates
relating to reserves for non-temporary declines in carrying value of investments
in Local Limited Partnerships may be subject to material near term adjustments.
The Fund, as a limited partner in the Local Limited Partnerships, is subject to
risks inherent in the ownership of property which are beyond its control, such
as fluctuations in occupancy rates and operating expenses, variations in rental
schedules, proper maintenance and continued eligibility for tax credits. If the
cost of operating a property exceeds the rental income earned thereon, the Fund
may deem it in its best interest to voluntarily provide funds in order to
protect its investment.
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 disclosures of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of short-term highly liquid money market instruments
with original maturities of 90 days or less at acquisition and approximate fair
value.
Marketable Securities and Other Investments
The Fund's marketable securities are classified as "Available for Sale"
securities and reported at fair value as reported by the brokerage firm at which
the securities are held. Realized gains and losses from the sales of securities
are based on the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses are
excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of partners' equity.
The Fund accounts for its investments in Treasury STRIPS, which are included in
other investments in the balance sheets, using the effective interest method of
accretion for the original issue discount. The Fund has the ability and it is
its intention to hold the Treasury STRIPS until maturity. Therefore, they are
classified as "Held to Maturity" and are carried at cost plus the adjustments
for the discount using the effective interest method.
Rental Property
Real estate and personal property of the Combined Entity prior to the date of
disposition were recorded at cost. Valuation allowances were established when
the carrying value of such assets exceeds their estimated recoverable amounts.
Depreciation was computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets of 7 to 40 years. Maintenance and repairs were
charged to expense as incurred.
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standard No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of",
the Fund has implemented policies and practices for assessing impairment of
its real estate assets and investments in Local Limited Partnerships. Each
asset is analyzed by real estate experts to determine if an impairment indicator
exists. If so, the carrying value is compared to the undiscounted future
cash flows expected to be derived from the asset and, if there is a significant
impairment in value, a provision to write down the asset to fair value will
be charged against income.

NOTES TO THE COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
2. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Rental Income
Rental income, principally from short-term leases on the Combined Entity's
apartment units prior to date of disposition, was recognized as income under the
accrual method of accounting as rents became due.
Effect of recently issued Accounting Standard
The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. The standard
requires that changes in comprehensive income be shown in a financial statement
that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. The
standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. The
Fund adopted the new standard effective April 1, 1998, and its adoption did not
have a significant effect on the Fund's financial position or results of
operations. The only component of the Fund's other accumulated comprehensive
income is net unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 ("SFAS No. 107"),
Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, requires disclosure of
the fair value of most on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments for which
it is practicable to estimate that value. The scope of SFAS No. 107 excludes
certain financial instruments, such as trade receivables and payables when the
carrying value approximates the fair value and investments accounted for under
the equity method, and all nonfinancial assets, such as real property. The fair
values of the Fund's assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial
instruments under SFAS No. 107, approximate their carrying amounts in the
accompanying balance sheets.
Income Taxes
No provision for income taxes has been made, as the liability for such taxes is
an obligation of the partners of the Fund.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years' financial statements to
conform to the current year presentation.

Proceeds from the maturities of marketable securities were approximately
$397,000, $810,000 and $407,000 during the fiscal years ended March 31, 1999,
1998 and 1997, respectively. Included in investment income are gross gains of
$6,095, $3,540 and $1,252 and gross losses of $488, $410 and $856 that were
realized on these sales in fiscal years 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and
are included in investment income in the combined statements of operations.
4. Investments in Local Limited Partnerships
The Fund uses the equity method to account for its limited partnership interests
in twenty-five Local Limited Partnerships, excluding the Combined Entities (see
Note 8). Each of these Local Limited Partnerships owns and operates multi-family
housing complexes, most of which are government assisted. The Fund, as Investor
Limited Partner pursuant to the various Local Limited Partnership Agreements,
has acquired a 99% interest, except for Livingston Arms, Metropolitan and New
Garden Place, in which 82%, 98.75% and 97.9% interests have been acquired,
respectively, in the profits, losses, tax credits and cash flows from operations
of each of the Local Limited Partnerships. Upon dissolution, proceeds will be
distributed according to each respective partnership agreement.

During the year ended March 31, 1996, the Fund established a reserve for
valuation of investments in Local Limited Partnerships equal to the investment
in Villas de Montellano. At March 31, 1997, the Fund wrote off its investment in
Villas de Montellano against the established reserve due to the remote
possibility of recovery.
The Fund has provided a reserve for valuation for four of its investments in
Local Limited Partnerships, Bancroft Court, Phoenix Housing, Primrose and
Sycamore, because there is evidence of non-temporary declines in the recoverable
amount of the investments.
As discussed in Notes 2 and 8, as of March 31, 1998, the Managing General
Partner transferred all of the assets of the Texas Partnerships (Tamaric,
Northwest and Leatherwood), subject to their liabilities, to unaffiliated
entities.

6. Transactions with Affiliates
In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, the Fund is required to pay
acquisition fees to and reimburse acquisition expenses of the Managing General
Partner or its affiliates for selecting, evaluating, structuring, negotiating
and closing the Fund's investments in Local Limited Partnerships. Acquisition
fees totaled 7.0% of Adjusted Gross Proceeds. Acquisition expenses did not
exceed 1.5% of Adjusted Gross Proceeds. Acquisition fees totaling $2,590,827
(prior to the write off of Villas de Montellano, the Texas Partnerships and
Capitol Park) have been paid to an affiliate of the Managing General Partner for
the closing of the Fund's Local Limited Partnership Investments; $2,138,541 of
these fees are classified as capital contributions to Local Limited Partnerships
in Note 4 of the Financial Statements. Acquisition expenses totaling $825,516
were incurred and have been reimbursed to an affiliate of the Managing General
Partner.
An affiliate of the Managing General Partner currently receives the base amount
of $6,533 per Local Limited Partnership (as adjusted by the CPI factor) annually
as the Asset Management Fee for administering the affairs of the Fund. Included
in the combined statements of operations for the years ended March 31, 1999,
1998 and 1997 is $166,952, $170,028 and $179,719, respectively, of fees earned
by the affiliate. At March 31, 1999 and 1998, the affiliate is due $1,195,815
and $1,028,863, respectively, for these fees.
An affiliate of the Managing General Partner is reimbursed for the actual cost
of the Fund's operating expenses. Included in general and administrative
expenses for the years ended March 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997 is $79,303, $95,037
and $92,130, respectively, that has been paid or is payable by the Fund as
reimbursements for salaries and benefits expenses. At March 31, 1999 and 1998,
$15,401 and $13,527, respectively, is payable to an affiliate of the Managing
General Partner.
Boston Financial Property Management ("BFPM"), an affiliate of the Managing
General Partner, currently manages Pilot House and Preston Place, properties in
which the Fund has invested. Included in operating expenses in the summarized
income statements in Note 4 to the Financial Statements is $76,877, $78,722 and
$56,739 of fees earned by BFPM for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and
1996, respectively.
Lansing Management Company ("LMC"), an affiliate of the Managing General
Partner, currently manages Linden Square, a property in which the Fund has
invested. Included in operating expenses in the summarized income statements in
Note 4 to the Financial Statements is $33,120, $33,120 and $33,120 of fees
earned by LMC for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.

LMC was also the management agent for the Texas Partnerships. Included in the
combined statements of operations is $8,268 and $8,845 of fees earned by BFPM
for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
7. Commitments
At March 31, 1999, the Fund has committed to make future capital contributions
and pay future purchase price installments on its investment in a Local Limited
Partnership. These future payments are contingent upon the achievement of
certain criteria as set forth in the Local Limited Partnership Agreement and
total approximately $240,000.
8. Transfer and Liquidation of Interests in Local Limited Partnerships
As previously reported, the Managing General Partner transferred all of the
assets of two of the Texas Partnerships (Tamaric and Northwest), subject to
their liabilities, to unaffiliated entities. The two Texas Partnerships were
transferred to new owners effective May 31, 1996.
On September 23, 1997, the Managing General Partner transferred all of the
assets of the remaining Texas Partnership, Leatherwood, subject to its
liabilities, to an unaffiliated entity. For financial reporting purposes, loss
on liquidation of interest in Local Limited Partnership of $4,182 and
extraordinary gain on cancellation of indebtedness of $73,252 were recognized in
the year ended March 31, 1998 as a result of this transfer. For tax purposes,
this event resulted in both Section 1231 Gain and Cancellation of Indebtedness
income. In addition, the transfer of ownership resulted in a nominal recapture
of tax credits, since Leatherwood represented only 0.6% of the Partnership's tax
credits.
On November 10, 1997, the Managing General Partner transferred 50% of its
interest in capital and profits of Phoenix Housing, Primrose and Sycamore to the
local general partner. Included in this transfer is a put option. The put option
grants the Managing General Partner the right to put the Fund's remaining
interest to the local general partner any time after one year has elapsed. For
financial reporting purposes, the Fund has written down the remaining carrying
value of these investments in Local Limited Partnerships to zero, because it is
unknown as to whether the Fund will be able to recover its remaining invested
balances. The Fund will retain its full share of tax credits until such time as
the remaining interest is put to the local general partner.
As previously reported, the Local General Partner of Capitol Park in Oklahoma
City, Oklahoma filed a Chapter 7 liquidation plan for the property during the
second quarter of 1997. The Chapter 7 filing was dismissed by the Bankruptcy
Court after its review. Therefore, the Fund recognized tax credit recapture,
plus interest, and the allocation of taxable income to the Fund, which was
reflected on the 1997 tax return. The Fund's carrying value of this investment
for financial reporting purposes was zero; therefore, the transfer had no impact
on the Fund's operating results.

Independent Auditor's Report
To the Partners
Prince Hall Housing Associates, Limited
Marlton, New Jersey
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Prince Hall Housing
Associates, Limited, An Oklahoma Limited Partnership, Section 8 Number
OK56-E000-014, as of December 31, 1996, and 1995, and the related statements of
income and expense, changes in partners' (deficiency) and cash flows for the
year ended December 31, 1996. 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 audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
and Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the
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. 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 audit provides 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 Prince Hall Housing Associates,
Limited, as of December 31, 1996, and 1995, and the results of its operations
and the changes in partners' (deficiency) and cash flows for the year ended
December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Partnership will continue as a going concern. As described more fully in Notes
13 and 14, shown in the financial statements, the Partnership incurred
significant operating losses including the year ended December 31, 1996, and as
of that date, had a working capital deficiency of $663,737.
The Company is not aware of any alternate sources of capital to meet such
demands, if made. Those conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty except
for the recognition of the impairment loss through the statement of profit and
loss.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards and the Consolidated Audit
Guide for Audits of HUD Programs issued by the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development, we have also issued a report dated January 18, 1997, on our
consideration of Prince Hall Housing Associates, Limited's internal control
structure and reports dated January 18, 1997, on its compliance with specific
requirements applicable to major HUD programs, specific requirements applicable
to Affirmative Fair Housing, and specific requirements applicable to nonmajor
HUD program transactions.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplementary
information shown on pages 17 to 23 is presented for purposes of additional

Linden Square Limited Dividend
Housing Association Limited Partnership
We have audited the financial statements on Linden Square Dividend Housing
Association Limited Partnership, MSHDA Development No.: 918, as of and for the
year ended December 31, 1997, and have issued our report thereon dated February
6, 1998.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
and Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the
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 management of the Linden Square Limited Dividend Housing Association Limited
Partnership is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control. In
fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are
required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls. The
objectives of internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and
judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related
costs of controls. The objectives of internal control are to provide management
with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against
loss from unauthorized use or disposition, that transactions are executed in
accordance with management's authorization and recorded property to permit the
preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. Because of inherent limitations in any internal control,
errors, fraud or instances or noncompliance may nevertheless occur and not be
detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of internal control to future
periods in subject to the risk that procedures may become inadequate because of
changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of the design of controls may
deteriorate.
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Linden
Square Limited Dividend Housing Association Limited Partnership for the year
ended December 31, 1997, we obtained an understanding of the design of relevant
controls and determined whether they have been placed in operation, and we
assessed control risk in order to determine our auditing procedure for the
purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and not to provide
an opinion on internal control. Accordingly, we do not express such n opinion.
Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters
in internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards
established b the American Institute of Certified Pubic Accountants. A material
weakness is a reportable condition in which the design or operation of one or
more of the specific internal control elements does not reduce to a relatively
low level the risk that errors or fraud in amounts that would be material in
relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected
within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their
assigned functions. We noted no matters involving the internal control and its
operations that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above.
Additionally, no management letter was issued in relation to our audit of the
financial statements of Linden Square Limited Dividend Housing Association
Limited Partnership as of and for the year ended December 31, 1997.
This report is intended for the information of management and the Michigan State
Housing Development Authority. However, this report is a matter of public record
and its distribution in not limited.

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 audit provides 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 HUD Project No. 064-44036 at
December 31, 1998 and the results of its operations, charges in partners'
capital and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with generally
