1. Basis of Presentation

   The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
   accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
   of America for interim financial information. They do not include all
   information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally
   accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.
   The results of operations are impacted significantly by the combined results
   of operations of the Local Partnerships, which are provided by the Local
   Partnerships on an unaudited basis during interim periods. Accordingly, the
   accompanying financial statements are dependent on such unaudited
   information. In the opinion of the Manager, the financial statements include
   all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of
   September 29, 2002 and the results of operations and cash flows for the
   interim periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
   The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended September
   29, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
   for the entire year.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations

Material Changes in Financial Condition

As of September 29, 2002, American Tax Credit Trust (the "Registrant") has not
experienced a significant change in financial condition as compared to March 30,
2002. 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") that 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, 2002,
Registrant received cash from interest revenue and distributions from Local
Partnerships and utilized cash for operating expenses. Cash and cash equivalents
and investments in bonds increased, in the aggregate, by approximately $77,000
during the six months ended September 29, 2002 (which includes a net unrealized
gain on investments in bonds of approximately $31,000 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, 2002, 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, 2002 of $449,386 and
cash distributions received from Local Partnerships of $70,456. Payable to
manager in the accompanying balance sheet as of September 29, 2002 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, 2002, no investment in any Local Partnership has
reached a zero balance.

Cumulative losses and cash distributions in excess of investment in local
partnerships may result from a variety of circumstances, including a Local
Partnership's accounting policies, subsidy structure, debt structure and
operating deficits, among other things. In addition, the carrying value of
Registrant's investment in local partnerships may be reduced if the book value
(the "Local Partnership Carrying Value") is considered to exceed the estimated
value derived by management. Accordingly, cumulative losses and cash
distributions in excess of the investment or an adjustment to a Local
Partnership's Carrying Value are not necessarily indicative of adverse operating
results of a Local Partnership. See discussion below under Local Partnership
Matters regarding a certain Local Partnership currently operating below economic
break even levels.

Registrant's operations for the three months ended September 29, 2002 and 2001
resulted in net losses of $234,868 and $225,140, respectively. Other
comprehensive income for the three months ended September 29, 2002 and 2001
resulted from a net unrealized gain on investments in bonds of $9,519 and
$71,864, respectively.

The Local Partnerships' net loss of approximately $214,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 2002 was attributable to rental and other revenue of
approximately $1,029,000, exceeded by operating and interest expense (including
interest on non-mandatory debt) of approximately $933,000 and approximately
$310,000 of depreciation and amortization expense. The Local Partnerships' net
loss of approximately $204,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001 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 $884,000 and approximately $306,000 of depreciation and
amortization expense. The results of operations of the Local Partnerships for
the three months ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected in future periods.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations (continued)

Registrant's operations for the six months ended September 29, 2002 and 2001
resulted in net losses of $502,415 and $458,502, respectively. Other
comprehensive income for the six months ended September 29, 2002 and 2001
resulted from a net unrealized gain on investments in bonds of $31,381 and
$59,387, respectively.

The Local Partnerships' net loss of approximately $454,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 2002 was attributable to rental and other revenue of
approximately $2,039,000, exceeded by operating and interest expense (including
interest on non-mandatory debt) of approximately $1,873,000 and approximately
$620,000 of depreciation and amortization expense. The Local Partnerships' net
loss of approximately $429,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001 was
attributable to rental and other revenue of approximately $1,990,000, exceeded
by operating and interest expense (including interest on non-mandatory debt) of
approximately $1,795,000 and approximately $624,000 of depreciation and
amortization expense. The results of operations of the Local Partnerships for
the six months ended June 30, 2002 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,
2001, 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 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 before debt
service 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.

                           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 (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, 2002, revenue from
operations of the Local Partnerships has generally been sufficient to cover
operating expenses and Mandatory Debt Service. Substantially 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. However, as
discussed below, a certain Local Partnership's operating information indicates
an operating deficit after taking into account its mortgage and financing
structure and any required deferral of property management fees.

The terms of the partnership agreement of St. Christopher's Associates, L.P. V
("St. Christopher") require the Local General Partner to advance funds to cover
operating deficits through the Compliance Period. St. Christopher incurred an
operating deficit of approximately $29,000 for six months ended June 30, 2002.
St. Christopher has an operating reserve of approximately $323,000 as of June
30, 2002. In addition, unpaid Registrant capital contribution and accrued
interest thereon total approximately $133,000 as of September 29, 2002. There is
no Mandatory Debt Service and payments on the real estate taxes are current. Of
Registrant's total annual Low-income Tax Credits, approximately 14% are
allocated from St. Christopher.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, which requires Registrant to
make certain estimates and assumptions. The following section is a summary of
certain aspects of those accounting policies that may require subjective or
complex judgments and are most important to the portrayal of Registrant's
financial condition and results of operations. Registrant believes that there is
a low probability that the use of different estimates or assumptions in making
these judgments would result in materially different amounts being reported in
the financial statements.

     o    Registrant accounts for its investment in local partnerships in
          accordance with the equity method of accounting since Registrant
          cannot control the operations of a Local Partnership.

     o    If the book value of Registrant's investment in a Local Partnership
          exceeds the estimated value derived by management, Registrant reduces
          its investment in any such Local Partnership and includes such
          reduction in equity in loss of investment in local partnerships.


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.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

a. Within the 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Richman American Credit Corp., the
Manager of Registrant, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of
Registrant's "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined in the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-14(c) and 15(d)-14(c)). Based on that evaluation,
the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that
as of the date of the evaluation, Registrant's disclosure controls and
procedures were adequate and effective in timely alerting them to material
information relating to Registrant required to be included in Registrant's
periodic SEC filings.

Changes in internal controls

b. There were no significant changes in Registrant's internal controls or in
other factors that could significantly affect Registrant's internal controls
subsequent to the date of that evaluation.
