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
by generally accepted accounting  principles for complete financial  statements.
In the opinion of management,  all adjustments  (consisting of normal  recurring
accruals)  considered  necessary  for a fair  presentation  have been  included.
Operating  results for the three months ended June 30, 2000 are not  necessarily
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 IV, L.P., Series 2 (the "Partnership") was formed on
September  27,  1993  under the laws of the state of  California  and  commenced
operations on July 18, 1994. The Partnership  was formed to invest  primarily in
other limited  partnerships  (the "Local  Limited  Partnerships")  which own and
operate multi-family housing complexes (the "Housing Complex") that are eligible
for low income housing  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  Tax  Credit  Partners,  IV,  L.P.  (the  "General
Partner"), a California limited partnership.  WNC & Associates,  Inc. ("WNC") is
the general partner 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 Partnership Agreement authorized the sale of 20,000 units at $1,000 per unit
("Units").  The  offering of Units  concluded  in July 1995 at which time 15,600
Units representing subscriptions,  net of discounts for volume purchases of more
than 100 units,  in the amount of  $15,241,000  had been  accepted.  The General
Partner has a 1% interest in operating  profits and losses,  taxable  income and
losses,  cash available for  distribution  from the Partnership and tax credits.
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 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 contributions and a subordinated disposition fee from the remainder,
any  additional  sale or  refinancing  proceeds will be  distributed  90% to the
limited partners (in proportion to their respective  investments) and 10% 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

                                       7

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued

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
Partnership 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.

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 $970,717 as of June 30, 2000
and March 31, 2000.

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  highly liquid  investments  with maturities of three
months or less when  purchased to be cash  equivalents.  As of June 30, 2000 and
March 31, 2000, the Partnership had no cash equivalents.

Net Loss Per Limited Partner 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 -  UNCERTAINTY  WITH  RESPECT TO  INVESTMENTS  IN BROKEN BOW AND  SIDNEY:
IMPAIRMENT OF INVESTMENTS

The  Partnership  has two  investments  accounted  for under the equity  method,
consisting of 99% limited partnership interests in each of Broken Bow Apartments
I,  Limited  Partnership   ("Broken  Bow")  and  Sidney  Apartments  I,  Limited
Partnership ("Sidney").

The  independent  auditors  engaged  to  perform  the  audits of Broken  Bow and
Sidneys'  financial  statements as of and for the year ended  December 31, 1999,
were unable to form an opinion on those  financial  statements.  This was due to
the inability to obtain from the former local general  partner  certain  general
ledger  information  for a period of  approximately  three  months and  reliable
confirmations  of advances  to/notes  receivable  from the former local  general
partner.  Further,  the  independent  auditors were unable to obtain  management
representation  letters from the former property management company, which is an
affiliate of the former local general partner.  As a result, the Partnership has
not included the financial  information of Broken Bow and Sidney in the combined
condensed financial statements presented in Note 3 to the financial  statements.
The  combined  condensed  financial  information  presented  in Note 3 for prior
periods has been restated to exclude the accounts of Broken Bow and Sidney.  The
Partnership  had  reflected  equity in the net  losses of Broken  Bow and Sidney
totaling $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 because the  recognition of
any such loss would reduce the net  investment  account to a balance below zero.
(See  note 3) Such  estimates  may be  materially  misstated  due to the lack of
corroborative financial information.

Broken  Bow  and  Sidney  continue  to  experience   negative  cash  flows  from
operations. During the three month period ended June 30, 2000 and the year ended
March 31, 2000, the Partnership  advanced $11,466 and $120,906 in cash to Broken
Bow and Sidney for operating expenses,  including legal fees relating to certain
litigation  involving these and other  properties as outlined in Note 7, as well

IMPAIRMENT OF INVESTMENTS - continued

as  another  $19,291  in cash from  July 1, 2000 to  November  8,  2000.  WNC is
currently negotiating for a restructuring of the related bank loans, which would
increase  cash  flow  from  operations.   WNC  may  not  be  successful  in  the
restructuring of these loans. If the loans are not restructured, the Partnership
may be unable to support these properties.  Consequently, the Partnership may be
forced to sell all or a portion of its interests in these  properties.  Further,
the lender may attempt to foreclose on the Broken Bow and Sidney properties.

As  a  result  of  the  foregoing,  WNC  has  performed  an  evaluation  of  the
Partnership's remaining investment balances in Broken Bow and Sidney,  including
the  cash  advances  noted  above  and  other  anticipated  costs.  It has  been
determined that an impairment  adjustment is necessary and an impairment loss of
$766,559 has been  recognized for the year ended March 31, 2000. This impairment
loss  includes  $558,688  in  remaining  net  book  value  of the  Partnership's
investments in Broken Bow and Sidney, the $120,906 and $30,753 cash advances,  a
$37,670 accrual for anticipated legal costs, and $18,542 of estimated accounting
and other related costs.

As a result of the aforementioned  operating  difficulties and the litigation as
discussed in Note 7, there is  uncertainty  as to whether the  Partnership  will
ultimately retain its interests in Broken Bow and Sidney. If the investments are
sold or otherwise not retained, the Partnership could be subject to recapture of
tax credits and certain prior tax deductions. There is further uncertainty as to
costs  that  the  Partnership  may  ultimately  incur  in  connection  with  its
investments in Broken Bow and Sidney. The Partnership's  financial statements do
not  include  any  adjustments  that  might  result  from the  outcome  of these
uncertainties.

NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS

As of the periods  presented,  the Partnership had acquired limited  partnership
interests  in  twenty-two  Local  Limited  Partnerships,  each of which owns one
Housing  Complex  consisting of an aggregate of 892 apartment  units. As of June
30, 2000,  construction or rehabilitation of all of the apartment complexes have
been  completed.   The  respective   general   partners  of  the  Local  Limited
Partnerships manage the day-to-day operations of the entities. Significant Local
Limited  Partnership  business  decisions require approval from the Partnership.
The Partnership,  as a limited partner,  is entitled to 96% to 99%, as specified
in the  partnership  agreements,  of the operating  profits and losses,  taxable
income and losses and tax credits of the Limited Partnerships.

Equity in losses of 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.

Certain Local Limited  Partnerships have incurred  significant  operating losses
and  have  working  capital  deficiencies.  In the  event  these  Local  Limited
Partnerships continue to incur significant operating losses,  additional capital
contributions  by the  Partnership  and/or  the  Local  General  Partner  may be
required  to sustain  the  operations  of such Local  Limited  Partnerships.  If
additional  capital  contributions  are not made  when  they are  required,  the
Partnership's  investment in certain of such Local Limited Partnerships could be
impaired and the loss and recapture of the related tax credits could occur.

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Partnership has no officers,  employees,  or directors.  However,  under the
terms of the  Partnership  Agreement the Partnership is obligated to the General
Partner or Associates for the following fees:

(a)  Annual Asset  Management Fee. An annual asset management fee of the greater
     of (i)  $2,000 per  multi-family  housing  complex or (ii)  0.275% of Gross
     Proceeds. The base fee amount will be adjusted annually based on changes in
     the  Consumer  Price  Index.  However,  in no event will the  annual  asset
     management fee exceed 0.2% of Invested Assets.  "Invested Assets" means the
     sum of the Partnership's  investment in Local Limited  Partnerships and the
     Partnership's  allocable share of the amount of indebtedness related to the
     Housing  Complexes.  Fees of $11,000 and $11,000 were  incurred  during the
     three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,  respectively.  The  Partnership
     paid the  General  Partner or its  affiliates  $0 of those fees  during the
     three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

(b)  A subordinated  disposition fee in an amount equal to 1% of the sales price
     of real estate  sold.  Payment of this fee is  subordinated  to the limited
     partners  receiving a preferred return of 16% through December 31, 2003 and
     6% thereafter (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 expenses due to General  Partner and affiliates  consist of
the following:

NOTE 5 - PAYABLES TO LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS

Payables  to limited  partnerships  represent  amounts  which are due at various
times  based on  conditions  specified  in the  respective  limited  partnership
agreements.  These contributions are payable in installments,  are generally due
upon the limited  partnerships  achieving certain  operating  benchmarks and are
generally  expected  to be paid  within two years of the  Partnership's  initial
investment.

NOTE 6- INCOME TAXES

The  Partnership  will not make a provision  for income taxes since all items of
taxable income and loss will be allocated to the partners for inclusion in their
respective income tax returns.

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 September 28, 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 $155,000 in
cash and aggregate  investments in the twenty-two Local Limited  Partnerships of
$8,115,000.  Liabilities  at June 30,  2000  primarily  consisted  of $87,000 in
accrued expenses and $77,000 of accrued asset 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
$(226,000)  reflecting  an  increase  of $47,000  from the  $(179,000)  net loss
experienced  for the three months ended June 30, 1999.  The increase in net loss
is primarily due to equity in losses of limited  partnerships which increased by
$30,000 to $(187,000)  for the three months ended June 30, 2000 from  $(157,000)
for the three months  ended June 30, 1999.  Along with the increase in equity in
losses of limited partnerships, there was an increase in loss from operations of
$17,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000 to $(40,000) from $(23,000) for
the three months ended June 30, 1999.

Cash Flows

Three Months  Ended June 30, 2000  Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 1999.
Net cash used during the three months ended June 30, 2000 was $(25,000) compared
to net cash used during the three months ended June 30, 1999 of $(205,000).  The
change was due  primarily to a decrease in cash used in  investments  in limited
partnerships of $(209,000) and an increase in cash used for operating activities
of $29,000.

During the three  months  ended June 30, 2000 and the year ended March 31, 2000,
accrued  payables,  which consist  primarily of asset management fees due to the
General  Partner,  increased by $4,000.  The General Partner does not anticipate
that these accrued fees will be paid in full 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.
