                                        - 5 -                                         
          Court’s 1993, 1994, and 1995 years, and one-third3 of the credits           
          claimed for the 1990, 1991, and 1992 years was recaptured,                  
          because the units were not occupied by qualifying tenants.                  
                                       OPINION                                        
               Bentley Court claimed low-income housing credits for its               
          1990, 1991, and 1992 years, which are now closed for tax                    
          purposes.  Respondent disallowed the credit for Bentley Court’s             
          1993, 1994, and 1995 years.  Respondent also determined that                
          $528,747 of credits claimed for 1990, 1991, and 1992 should be              
          recaptured in the 1993 year.  Bentley Court contends that it was            
          not entitled to the credit for 1993, 1994, and 1995, or for the             
          closed years, 1990, 1991, and 1992.  Because it was not entitled            
          to the credit in any of the years, Bentley Court contends that              
          the credit cannot be recaptured.  The sole issue remaining in               
          dispute is whether Bentley Court must recapture in 1993, the                
          $528,747 in housing credits claimed for 1990, 1991, and 1992.               




               3 The Notice of Final Partnership Administrative Adjustment            
          for 1993 contained the following schedule showing the computation           
          of the amount of recapture, as follows:                                     
               Tax year  Amount claimed   Rate     Amount recaptured                  
               12/31/90   $28,508         .333    $9,493                              
               12/31/91   699,780         .333         233,027                        
               12/31/92   859,543       .333           286,228                        
                    Total recapture                    528,748                        
          There is no further explanation or dispute about this                       
          computation.
