AMERICAN TAX CREDIT TRUST,
a Delaware statutory business trust
Series I
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Material Changes in Financial Condition
As of September 29, 2000, American Tax Credit Trust (the "Registrant") has not
experienced a significant change in financial condition as compared to March 30,
2000. Principal changes in assets are comprised of periodic transactions and
adjustments and anticipated equity in loss from operations of the local
partnerships (the "Local Partnerships") which own low-income multifamily
residential complexes (the "Properties") which qualify for the low-income tax
credit in accordance with Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code (the
"Low-income Tax Credit"). During the six months ended September 29, 2000,
Registrant received cash from interest revenue and distributions from Local
Partnerships and utilized cash for operating expenses and investments in bonds.
Cash and cash equivalents and investments in bonds increased, in the aggregate,
by approximately $69,000 during the six months ended September 29, 2000 (which
is net of a net unrealized loss on investments in bonds of approximately $5,000
and the amortization of net premium on investments in bonds of approximately
$2,000). 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. During the six months ended September 29,
2000, the investment in local partnerships decreased as a result of Registrant's
equity in the Local Partnerships' net loss for the six months ended June 30,
2000 of $303,176 and cash distributions received from Local Partnerships of
$105,311. Payable to manager in the accompanying balance sheet as of September
29, 2000 represents deferred 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. Accordingly, the investment
is carried at cost, which includes capital contributions payable, 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. As of September 29, 2000, no investment in any Local Partnership has
reached a zero balance.
Registrant's operations for the three months ended September 29, 2000 and 1999
resulted in net losses of $171,433 and $293,671, respectively. The decrease in
net loss is primarily attributable to a decrease in equity in loss of investment
in local partnerships of approximately $113,000, which is attributable to a
decrease in the net operating losses of certain Local Partnerships. Other
comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended September 29, 2000 and
1999 resulted from a net unrealized gain (loss) on investments in bonds of
$5,642 and $(34,757), respectively.
The Local Partnerships' net loss of approximately $152,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 2000 was attributable to rental and other revenue of
approximately $1,031,000, exceeded by operating and interest expense (including
interest on non-mandatory debt) of approximately $868,000 and approximately
$315,000 of depreciation and amortization expense. The Local Partnerships' net
loss of approximately $267,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was
attributable to rental and other revenue of approximately $986,000, exceeded by
operating and interest expense (including interest on non-mandatory debt) of
approximately $901,000 and approximately $352,000 of depreciation and
amortization expense. The results of operations of the Local Partnerships for
the three months ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected in future periods.
Registrant's operations for the six months ended September 29, 2000 and 1999
resulted in net losses of $351,859 and $520,096, respectively. The decrease in
net loss is primarily attributable to a decrease in equity in loss of investment
in local partnerships of approximately $158,000, which is attributable to a
decrease in the net operating losses of certain Local Partnerships. Other
comprehensive loss for the six months ended September 29, 2000 and 1999 resulted
from a net unrealized loss on investments in bonds available-for-sale of $4,957
and $51,833, respectively.

AMERICAN TAX CREDIT TRUST,

Series I
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (continued)
The Local Partnerships' net loss of approximately $306,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 2000 was attributable to rental and other revenue of
approximately $2,017,000, exceeded by operating and interest expense (including
interest on non-mandatory debt) of approximately $1,694,000 and approximately
$629,000 of depreciation and amortization expense. The Local Partnerships' net
loss of approximately $466,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was
attributable to rental and other revenue of approximately $1,979,000, exceeded
by operating and interest expense (including interest on non-mandatory debt) of
approximately $1,743,000 and approximately $702,000 of depreciation and
amortization expense. The results of operations of the Local Partnerships for
the six months ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected in future periods.
Local Partnership Matters
Registrant's primary objective is to provide Low-income Tax Credits to
Beneficial Owners 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,
1999, none of the Local Partnerships have suffered an event of recapture of
Low-income Tax Credits.
The Properties are principally comprised of subsidized and leveraged low-income
multifamily residential complexes located throughout the United States. Certain
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"). The subsidy agreements expire at various times during and after
the Compliance Periods of the Local Partnerships. Since October 1997, the United
States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD") has issued a series
of directives related to project based Section 8 contracts that define owners'
notification responsibilities, advise owners of project based Section 8
properties of what their options are regarding the renewal of Section 8
contracts, provide guidance and procedures to owners, management agents,
contract administrators and HUD staff concerning renewal of Section 8 contracts,
provide policies and procedures on setting renewal rents and handling renewal
rent adjustments and provide the requirements and procedures for opting-out of a
Section 8 project based contract. 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. Three Local Partnerships' Section 8 contracts are currently
subject to renewal under applicable HUD guidelines.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations (continued)
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"). In the event rents are not sufficient to cover operating
expenses, Mandatory Debt Service requirements and other charges, certain general
partners of the Local Partnerships (the "Local General Partners") are obligated
to provide advances to cover deficits for a certain period of time up to certain
amounts (the "Deficit Guarantee"). A Local General Partner's funding of such
Deficit Guarantee is dependent on its liquidity or ability to borrow the
required funds. During the six months ended June 30, 2000, revenue from
operations of the Local Partnerships has generally been sufficient to cover
operating expenses and Mandatory Debt Service. All of the Local Partnerships are
effectively operating at or above 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.
Year 2000 Compliance
Registrant successfully completed a program to ensure Year 2000 readiness. As a
result, Registrant had no Year 2000 problems that affected its business, results
of operations or financial condition.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
Registrant has invested a significant portion of its working capital reserves in
corporate bonds. The market value of such investments is subject to fluctuation
based upon changes in interest rates relative to each investment's maturity
date. Since Registrant's investments in bonds have various maturity dates
through 2016, the value of such investments may be adversely impacted in an
environment of rising interest rates in the event Registrant decides to
liquidate any such investment prior to its maturity. Although Registrant may
utilize reserves to assist an under performing Property, it otherwise intends to
hold such investments to their respective maturities. Therefore, Registrant does
not anticipate any material adverse impact in connection with such investments.
