National Equity Fund

Estimates

On occasion and in extreme circumstances, NEF will prepare a GAAP estimate of the current year income and loss activity for certain Partnerships to ensure delivery of the fund audit to its investor(s) by the reporting deadline.

GAAP ESTIMATES

The estimates are primarily based on the Partnership’s third quarter financial operations. NEF compares annualized third quarter operations to prior year(s) and will request explanations and supporting documentation from the sponsor’s Property Managers and CPAs for material variances identified to support the final estimate. Material variances are defined as variances greater than or equal to 10% OR less than or equal to 10% of prior year audited net (income) loss. True up/true down will be accounted for in the subsequent fund audit.

Note: The final audit for the Partnership is still required by the Year End Reporting deadline.
