PART I
Item 1. | Business |
The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Account (the “Real Property Account” or the “Registrant”) was established on November 20, 1986. Pursuant to New Jersey law, the Real Property Account was established as a separate investment account of The Prudential Insurance Company of America (“Prudential”). The Real Property Account was established to provide a real estate investment option offered in connection with the funding of benefits under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts (the “Contracts”) issued by The Prudential Insurance Company of America.
The assets of the Real Property Account are invested in The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership (the “Partnership”). The Partnership, a general partnership organized under New Jersey law on April 29, 1988, was formed through an agreement among Prudential, Pruco Life Insurance Company (“Pruco Life”) and Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey (“Pruco Life of New Jersey”), to provide a means for assets allocated to the real estate investment option under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts issued by the respective companies to be invested in a commingled pool.
The Partnership has an investment policy of investing at least 65% of its assets in direct ownership interests in income-producing real estate and participating mortgage loans. The largest portion of these real estate investments are direct ownership interests in income-producing real estate, such as office buildings, shopping centers, hotels, apartments, or industrial properties. Approximately 10% of the Partnership’s assets are generally held in cash or invested in liquid instruments and securities although the Partners reserve discretion to increase this amount to meet partnership liquidity requirements.
Office Properties – The Partnership owns office properties in Lisle, Illinois; Brentwood, Tennessee; and Beaverton, Oregon. Total square footage owned is approximately 370,550, of which 79%, or 291,652 square feet, are leased between 1 and 10 years.
Apartment Complexes – The Partnership owns apartment complexes in Atlanta, Georgia and Raleigh, North Carolina, comprising a total of 490 apartment units, of which 91%, or 445 units, are leased. Leases range from month to month to one year.
Retail Property – The Partnership owns retail centers in Roswell, Georgia; Kansas City, Kansas; Ocean City, Maryland; Hampton, Virginia; and Westminster, Maryland. Total square footage owned is approximately 814,878, of which 95%, or 770,473 square feet, are leased between 1 and 30 years.
Industrial Properties – The Partnership owns an industrial property in Aurora, Colorado. Total square footage owned is approximately 277,930, of which 85%, or 234,997 square feet, are leased between 1 and 10 years.
Hotel Property – The Partnership owns a hotel property in Lake Oswego, Oregon. This joint venture investment has 161 rooms. Occupancy for the year ended 2006 averaged 79.6%.
Investment in Real Estate Trust – The Partnership liquidated its entire investment in REIT shares in December 2001. The Partnership does, however, maintain a preferred equity investment in an existing private real estate investment trust, or “REIT” (See Item 7(a)).
The Partnership’s investments are maintained so as to meet the diversification requirements set forth in treasury regulations issued pursuant to Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code relating to the investments of variable life insurance and variable annuity separate accounts. Section 817(h) requires, among other things, that the partnership will have no more than 55% of the assets invested in any one investment, no more than 70% of the assets will be invested in any two investments, no more than 80% of the assets will be invested in any three investments, and no more than 90% of the assets will be invested in any four investments. To comply with regulatory requirements of the State of Arizona, the Partnership will limit additional investments in any one parcel or related parcels to an amount not exceeding 10% of the Partnership’s gross assets as of the prior fiscal year.

For information regarding the Partnership’s investments, operations, and other significant events, see Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
The following is a description of general conditions in the U.S. real estate markets. It does not relate to specific properties held by the Partnership. The Partnership does not have widely diversified holdings; therefore, the discussions of vacancy rates, property values and returns in this section are not necessarily relevant to the Partnership’s portfolio. These results are not indicative of future performance.
MARKET CONDITIONS
Commercial property market fundamentals continued to improve steadily last year despite the dramatic slowdown in the U.S. housing market and the modest deceleration in economic growth. Healthy tenant demand and limited new supply caused vacancy rates to decline across most property types for a third consecutive year, allowing more markets to move decisively from recovery into the rent growth phase of the cycle. Although trailing one-year total returns for private real estate, as measured by the National Council of Real Estate Investment Fiduciaries’ Property Index, peaked in the first quarter, commercial real estate delivered a healthy total return of 16.6% in 2006.
Debt Market
The commercial real estate debt markets weathered the brief spike in long-term interest rates in 2006 with little disruption. Debt remained readily available for borrowers across all property types and with little differentiation in spreads by sector. Year-end origination data is not yet available. However, at the end of the third quarter,year-to-date commercial mortgage originations were about 11% higher than at the same time in 2005, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. The public debt markets for commercial real estate also remained active last year. New issuance of commercial mortgage-backed securities surged to nearly $300 billion in 2006, a 25% rise above the record volume in 2005.
Public Real Estate Securities
Equity REITs delivered average total returns of about 35% in 2006, according to the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts. A private-equity-fueled surge in Mergers and Acquisitions, or “M&A” activity helped drive REIT share prices higher in 2006 as more private capital converged on the REIT market as a source of large portfolios of quality assets. More than $110 billion in real estate M&A deals were announced in 2006, including about $70 billion in privatizations of public REITs. All major property types performed well. Office REITs led all major property types with average total returns of about 45%, followed by apartment REITs, which gained nearly 40%.
Property Markets
Office: The office sector continued to attract significant investor interest in 2006. According to Real Capital Analytics, or “RCA,” office transaction volume soared to nearly $134 billion last year, an increase of about 33% over the volume in 2005 and more than 80% over 2004. Office space market fundamentals in a growing number of markets are very attractive today. According to Torto Wheaton Research, or “TWR,” the average office vacancy rate in its 56 market coverage universe fell from 13.6% at year-end 2005 to 12.6% in 4Q06, its lowest level since 2Q01.
Industrial: Investor demand for warehouse properties also remained fairly strong in 2006, despite a modest slowdown in the manufacturing sector. According to RCA, industrial transaction volume totaled nearly $39 billion in 2006, an increase of about 9% over the total in 2005. Transaction volumes declined over the second half of last year, however. Industrial space market fundamentals continued to improve in 2006. According to TWR, the average industrial vacancy rate fell about 50 bps last year to 9.4%, its lowest level since 3Q01.
5
Residential: The slowdown in the U.S. housing market produced mostly positive effects in the apartment market in 2006. Apartment fundamentals continued to strengthen as vacancies fell and rent concessions became less common. However, apartment transaction volumes fell about 1% in 2006 to a little more than $87 billion, while the average unit price declined 3%. Many apartment markets recorded healthy rent growth in 2006 as concessions were eliminated and landlords regained enough pricing power to push rents higher, especially on the coasts.
Retail: Retail transaction activity continued to decline last year. In 2006, total volume was down about 12% from the peak in October 2005. Retail prices, however, have remained firm. Average retail transaction cap rates fell about 30 bps in 2006 to 6.7%, according to RCA, while average unit prices rose by 13%. Retail space market fundamentals and retailer demand have remained healthy.
Hotel: The lodging sector enjoyed one of its best years ever in 2006. According to Smith Travel Research, room demand rose 1.1% from 2005 to 2006, while supply expanded just 0.6%. Continued strong room demand pushed average occupancy rates 0.5% higher and allowed operators to increase average daily rates 7%. As a result, revenue per available room, or “RevPAR,” rose 7.5% in 2006. Luxury hotels and urban locations continued to perform well, with RevPAR growth rates of 11.7% and 9.7%, respectively.
Item 1A. | Risk Factors |
These risks could materially affect our business, results of operations or financial condition or cause our actual results to differ materially from those expected or those expressed in any forward looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. These risks are not exclusive, and additional risks to which we are subject include, but are not limited to, the factors mentioned under “Forward-Looking Statements” above and the risks of our businesses described elsewhere in this Annual Report onForm 10-K.
All real estate investments are subject to varying degrees of risk. The yields available from investments depend on the amounts of income generated and expenses incurred. If investment properties do not generate revenues sufficient to meet operating expenses, including debt service and capital expenditures, cash flow will be adversely affected.
The revenues and value of a particular real estate investment may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including, but not limited to: the cyclical nature of the real estate market, general national economic conditions, local economic conditions, local real estate conditions, and fluctuations in operating costs, including real estate taxes and utilities. Certain significant expenditures associated with each equity investment, such as mortgage payments, real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs, are generally not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in income from the investment. If a property is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness, and if the mortgaged property is unable to produce enough revenue to cover its mortgage or other debt payments, a loss could be sustained as a result of foreclosure on the property or the exercise of other remedies by the lender. In addition, a property’s revenues and real estate value may also be affected by such factors as potential liability under applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations, which may vary widely depending upon location, including tax laws, environmental laws, Americans with Disabilities Act accessibility requirements, and rent stabilization laws.

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Owners of the Contracts may participate by allocating all or part of the net premiums or purchase payments to the Real Property Account. Contract values vary with the performance of the Real Property Account’s investments through the Partnership. Participating interests in the Real Property Account are not traded in any public market; therefore a discussion of market information is not relevant.
As of December 31, 2006, approximately 32,863 contract owners of record held investments in the Real Property Account.

Item 7. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
All of the assets of the Real Property Account, or the “Account” are invested in the Partnership. Accordingly, the liquidity and capital resources and results of operations for the Account are contingent upon those of the Partnership. Therefore, this management’s discussion and analysis addresses these items at the Partnership level. The partners in the Partnership are Prudential, Pruco Life Insurance Company, and Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey, or collectively, the “Partners”.
The following discussion and analysis of the liquidity and capital resources and results of operations of the Partnership should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Account and the Partnership and the related Notes included in this filing.
7
(a) | Liquidity and Capital Resources |
As of December 31, 2006, the Partnership’s liquid assets, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, were approximately $33.4 million, a decrease of approximately $12.1 million from $45.5 million at December 31, 2005. The decrease was primarily due to an additional funding for a preferred equity investment in a private real estate investment trust, or “REIT”, the acquisition of a retail property and a distribution to the Partners, as discussed below. Partially offsetting the decrease were proceeds received in connection with a loan payoff, as described below, and the cash flows from the Partnership’s operating activities of $11.9 million. Sources of liquidity included net cash flow from property operations, sales, financings and interest from short-term investments. The Partnership uses cash for its real estate investment activities and for its distributions to its partners. As of December 31, 2006, approximately 12.3% of the Partnership’s total assets consisted of cash and cash equivalents.
During 2006, the Partnership completed the second funding of its preferred equity investment in its existing Capital Automotive, or “CARS”, REIT for $7.3 million. CARS owns approximately 364 properties, which are leased to sixty automobile dealership operators throughout the United States. This investment is expected to pay to investors an annual preferred return of 7.5% for years one through five, 8.75% during years six and seven, and 12% for all subsequent years. In addition, the Partnership invested $14.8 million in June to acquire an 89,849 square-foot retail property located in Westminster, Maryland.
Dispositions for the year included the sale of a portfolio of three retail properties located in Kansas City, Kansas and Kansas City, Missouri resulting in net proceeds of $3.6 million after the repayment of debt.
The Partnership made distributions to its Partners totaling $6.0 million during 2006.
The Partnership issued a Leasehold Mortgage Loan to a borrower in January 2004 in connection with the redevelopment of a retail center in Westminster, Maryland. The loan was paid in full by the borrower in March 2006, resulting in proceeds of approximately $4.3 million.
The Partnership spent approximately $3.2 million on capital improvements to various existing properties during 2006. Approximately $1.3 million was associated with leasing expenses at the office property in Lisle, Illinois, approximately $0.4 million funded the renovation of an apartment complex in Atlanta, Georgia and approximately $0.5 million was spent on budgeted capital projects and leasing expenses at the industrial property in Aurora, Colorado. The remaining $1.0 million was associated with minor capital improvements and transaction costs associated with leasing expenses of various other properties.
(b) | Results of Operations |
The following is a comparison of the Partnership’s results of operations for the periods ended December 31, 2006 and 2005.
Net Investment Income Overview
The Partnership’s net investment income for the year ended December 31, 2006 was approximately $11.2 million, an increase of $2.0 million from $9.2 million for the prior year. The office, retail, industrial and hotel sector investments posted increases of approximately $0.3 million, $1.7 million, $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively, from the prior year. Partially offsetting this increase was a decrease in net investment income in the apartment sector of approximately $0.9 million. In addition, the land sector posted a slight decrease in net investment income during the year ended December 31, 2006. Other net investment income (loss) decreased $0.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2006 from the prior year. The components of this net investment income are discussed below by property type sector.
Valuation Overview
The Partnership recorded an aggregate net realized gain of approximately $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to an aggregate net realized gain of $6.2 million for the prior year. The Partnership recorded an aggregate net unrealized gain of approximately $18.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to an aggregate net unrealized gain of $9.2 million for the prior year. The aggregate net realized and unrealized gain of $18.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 was attributable to valuation gains in all property type sectors. Partially offsetting these gains for the year ended December 31, 2006 was a slight realized loss recorded in the land sector. The components of these valuation gainsand/or losses are discussed below by property type sector.

Net Investment Income
Net investment income for the Partnership’s office properties was approximately $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, an increase of approximately $0.3 million from the prior year. The increase was primarily due to (a) increased rents and lower expenses at the office property in Lisle, Illinois; (b) stabilized occupancy and increased rents at the office properties in Brentwood, Tennessee; and (c) increased rents and higher occupancy at the office property in Beaverton, Oregon. Partially offsetting this increase was the loss of income from the Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois office property that was sold on June 8, 2005.
Total Realized and Unrealized Gain/(Loss)
The office properties owned by the Partnership recorded an aggregate net unrealized gain of approximately $2.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to an aggregate net realized and unrealized gain of $4.5 million for the prior year. The net unrealized gain of $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 was primarily due to strengthening market fundamentals and investor demand in the office sector in Beaverton, Oregon as well as improving market conditions at the office properties in Brentwood, Tennessee. Partially offsetting these unrealized gains was a net unrealized loss of approximately $0.6 million at the office property in Lisle, Illinois due to continued soft market conditions, which resulted in a decrease in market rental rates.

Net Investment Income
Net investment income for the Partnership’s apartment properties was $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, a decrease of approximately $0.9 million from the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the loss of income on the Salem, Oregon, Gresham, Oregon and Jacksonville, Florida apartment properties that were sold on March 10, 2005, August 10, 2005 and November 30, 2005, respectively, and increased operating expenses at the apartment property in Raleigh, North Carolina. Partially offsetting the decrease was an increase in net investment income for the apartment property in Atlanta, Georgia due to increased rents, reduced operating expenses and lowered rental concessions.

Total Realized and Unrealized Gain/(Loss)
The apartment properties owned by the Partnership recorded an aggregate net realized and unrealized gain of $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to an aggregate net realized and unrealized gain of $5.0 million for the prior year. The aggregate net realized and unrealized gain for the year ended December 31, 2006 was primarily due to valuation gains resulting from investor demand and the strengthening of both market and property fundamentals, which included reduced rental concessions and increased rental rates, at the apartment properties in Atlanta, Georgia and Raleigh, North Carolina. In addition, the Jacksonville, Florida apartment property that was sold in November 2005 recognized realized gains of approximately $0.1 million due to the disbursement of reserved funds that were escrowed at closing for any post-closing operating adjustments.

Net Investment Income
Net investment income for the Partnership’s retail properties was $6.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, an increase of approximately $1.7 million from the prior year. The increase was primarily due to (a) stabilized occupancy and increased rents at the retail center in Roswell, Georgia; (b) income received from the preferred equity investments made by the Partnership on December 16, 2005 and February 14, 2006, respectively; (c) the acquisition of a retail property in Westminster, Maryland in June 2006; and (d) increased rents at the retail property in Hampton, Virginia. Partially offsetting the increase were (a) increased operating expenses at the retail property in Ocean City, Maryland; (b) the loss of income as well as higher expenses at the retail properties in Kansas City, Kansas and Kansas City, Missouri due to the prepayment penalty of the existing mortgage on the three properties upon their respective sales in May 2006; and (c) the loss of interest income for the Mortgage Loan Receivable that was paid in full by the borrower on March 7, 2006.

Unrealized Gain/(Loss)
The retail properties owned by the Partnership recorded an aggregate net unrealized gain of $6.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to an aggregate net unrealized gain of $3.0 million for the prior year. The unrealized gain for the year ended December 31, 2006 was primarily due to the acquisition of the retail property in Westminster, Maryland at cost, which resulted in $5.4 million in valuation gains. In addition, unrealized gains of approximately $1.1 million and $0.1 million were recorded at the retail properties in Roswell, Georgia due to continued investor demand and in Ocean City, Maryland due to strengthening market fundamentals, respectively. Partially offsetting these gains for the year ended December 31, 2006 were unrealized losses of approximately $0.2 million recorded at the retail properties in Kansas City, Kansas and Kansas City, Missouri due to the three properties having been sold slightly below their previously appraised values and $0.1 million recorded at the retail property in Hampton, Virginia reflecting updated market conditions.

Land
The Blue Springs, Missouri land property was sold on November 28, 2005, but certain post-closing adjustments were recognized during the year ended December 31, 2006, which resulted in a slight decrease to net investment income. The same land property also recorded a slight realized loss during the year ended December 31, 2006, which reflects a post-closing adjustment to the $0.6 million gain recognized during the fourth quarter of 2005 when the land was sold.
Other
Other net investment income (loss) decreased $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 from the prior year period. Other net investment income (loss), which is included in Net Investment Income, includes interest income from short-term investments, investment management fees, and portfolio level expenses.
(c) | Inflation |
The Partnership’s leases with a majority of its commercial tenants provide for recoveries of expenses based upon the tenant’s proportionate share of,and/or increases in, real estate taxes and certain operating costs, which may partially reduce the Partnership’s exposure to increases in operating costs resulting from inflation.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or “U.S. GAAP”, requires the application of accounting policies that often involve a significant degree of judgment. Management reviews critical estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. If management determines, as a result of its consideration of facts and circumstances, that modifications in assumptions and estimates are appropriate, results of operations and financial position as reported in the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Account and the Partnership may change significantly.
The following sections discuss those critical accounting policies applied in preparing the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Account and the Partnership that are most dependent on the application of estimates and assumptions.
Valuation of Investments
Real Estate Investments — Real estate investments are shown at estimated market value in accordance with the terms of the Partnership’s contracts. Properties owned are initially recorded at the purchase price plus closing costs. Development costs and major renovations are capitalized as a component of cost, and routine maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Real estate costs include the cost of acquired property, including all the tangible and intangible assets. Tangible assets include the value of all land, building and tenant improvements at the time of acquisition. Intangible assets include the value of any above and below market leases, in-place leases, and tenant relationships at the time of acquisition. Market value estimates are based upon property appraisal reports prepared by independent real estate appraisers (members of the Appraisal Institute or an equivalent organization) within a reasonable amount of time following acquisition of the real estate and no less frequently than annually thereafter. The Chief Real Estate Appraiser of Prudential Investment Management, Inc., or “PIM”, which is an indirectly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc., is responsible for assuring that the valuation process provides independent and reasonable property market value estimates. American Appraisal Associates, or the “Appraisal Management Firm”, an entity not affiliated with PIM, has been appointed by PIM to assist the Chief Real Estate Appraiser in maintaining and monitoring the independence and the accuracy of the appraisal process. Unless a property is currently held for sale, the market value of real estate investments does not reflect the transaction sale costs, which may be incurred upon disposition of the real estate investments.
13
Unconsolidated real estate partnerships are valued at the Partnership’s equity in net assets as reflected in the partnership’s financial statements with properties valued as described above. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recorded at the original investment amount, plus or minus additional amounts invested or distributed, and is subsequently adjusted for the Partnership’s share of undistributed earnings or losses, including unrealized appreciation and depreciation, from the underlying entity.
The Partnership periodically enters into forward contracts to acquire, for a fixed price, real estate investments to be constructed in accordance with predetermined plans and specifications or that achieve a certain level of leasing. Where conditions precedent to funding have been met by its development partner, and the Partnership’s commitment to fund is firm, the amount of any unrealized gain or loss is recognized based upon the difference between the estimated investment’s market value as described above and the Partnership’s funding obligation. The funding obligation and related assets are recorded in the consolidated financial statements.
As described above, the estimated market value of real estate and real estate related assets is determined through an appraisal process. These estimated market values may vary significantly from the prices at which the real estate investments would sell, because market prices of real estate investments can only be determined by negotiation between a willing buyer and seller and could be material to the consolidated financial statements. Although the estimated market values represent subjective estimates, management believes that these estimated market values are reasonable approximations of market prices and that the aggregate estimated value of investments in real estate is fairly presented as of December 31, 2006, and 2005.
Land and development properties held for future development is carried at acquisition cost including soft costs incurred prior to development.
Other Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
ITEM 7A. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
Interest Rate Risk — The Partnership’s exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates to approximately 28.55% of its investment portfolio as of December 31, 2006, which consists primarily of short-term fixed rate commercial paper and fixed and variable interest rate debt. The Partnership does not use derivative financial instruments. By policy, the Partnership places its investments with high quality debt security issuers, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer, limits duration by restricting the term, and holds investments to maturity except under unusual circumstances.
The table below presents the amounts and related weighted interest rates of the Partnership’s cash equivalents and short-term investments at December 31, 2006:
Estimated Market Value | Average | |||||||||||
Maturity | (in $ millions) | Interest Rate | ||||||||||
Cash and Cash equivalents | 0-3 months | $ | 33.4 | 5.57% |
The table below discloses the Partnership’s debt as of December 31, 2006. All of the Partnership’s long-term debt bears interest at fixed rates and therefore the fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in market interest rates. The following table presents principal cash flows based upon maturity dates of the

debt obligations and the related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates for the fixed rate debt.

The Partnership is exposed to market risk from tenants. While the Partnership has not experienced any significant credit losses, in the event of significant increases in interest ratesand/or an economic downturn, delinquencies could increase and result in losses to the Partnership and the Account that could adversely affect its operating results and liquidity.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Contract Owners of
The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Account
and the Board of Directors of
The Prudential Insurance Company of America
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Account at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of its operations and the changes in its net assets for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the management of The Prudential Insurance Company of America; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of shares at December 31, 2006 with The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
THE PRUDENTIAL VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY ACCOUNT
December 31, 2006
THE PRUDENTIAL VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY ACCOUNT
December 31, 2006
Note 1: | General |
The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Account (the “Account”) was established on November 20, 1986 by resolution of the Board of Directors of The Prudential Insurance Company of America (“Prudential”), which is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc. (“PFI”) as a separate investment account pursuant to New Jersey law and is registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The assets of the Account are segregated from Prudential’s other assets. The Account is used to fund benefits under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts issued by Prudential. These products are Variable Appreciable Life (“PVAL and PVAL $100,000+ Face Value”), Discovery Plus (“PDISCO+”), and Variable Investment Plan (“VIP”).
The assets of the Account are invested in The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership (the “Partnership”). The Partnership is the investment vehicle for assets allocated to the real estate investment option under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts. The Account, along with the Pruco Life Variable Contract Real Property Account and the Pruco Life of New Jersey Variable Contract Real Property Account, are the sole investors in the Partnership. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Partnership.
The Partnership has a policy of investing at least 65% of its assets in direct ownership interests in income-producing real estate and participating mortgage loans.
Note 2: | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Pronouncements |
A. | Basis of Accounting |
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In September 2006, the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or “SEC”, issued Staff Accounting Bulletin, or “SAB”, No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements.” The interpretations in this SAB express the staff’s views regarding the process of quantifying financial statement misstatements. Specifically, the SEC staff believes that registrants must quantify the impact on current period financial statements of correcting all misstatements, including both those occurring in the current period and the effect of reversing those that have accumulated from prior periods. This SAB should be applied beginning with the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006, with early adoption encouraged. Since the Account’s method for quantifying financial statement misstatements already considers those occurring in the current period and the effect of reversing those that have accumulated from prior periods, the adoption of SAB No. 108 should have no effect to the financial position and result of operations of the Account.
B. | Investment in Partnership Interest |
The investment in the Partnership is based on the Account’s proportionate interest of the Partnership’s market value. At December 31, 2006 and 2005 the Account’s interest in the Partnership was 40.6% or 2,741,864 shares and 40.6% or 2,814,362 shares respectively.
C. | Income Recognition |
Net investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized daily. Amounts are based upon the Account’s proportionate interest in the Partnership.
D. | Equity of The Prudential Insurance Company of America |
Prudential maintains a position in the Account for liquidity purposes, including unit purchases and redemptions, Partnership share transactions, and expense processing. The position does not affect contract owners’ accounts or the related unit values.

December 31, 2006
Note 3: | Taxes |
Prudential is taxed as a “life insurance company”, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. The results of operations of the Account form a part of PFI’s consolidated federal tax return. Under current federal law, no federal income taxes are payable by the Account. As such, no provision for the tax liability has been recorded in these financial statements.
Note 4: | Net Withdrawals by Contract Owners |
Net contract owner withdrawals for the real estate investment option in The Prudential Insurance Company of America’s variable insurance and variable annuity products for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 were as follows:

Prudential Insurance Company of America (the “Company” or “Prudential”) sells a number of variable annuity and variable life insurance products. These products have unique combinations of features and fees that are charged against the contract owner’s account balance. Differences in the fee structures result in a variety of unit values, expense ratios and total returns.
The following table was developed by determining which products offered by Prudential Insurance Company of America have the lowest and highest total expense ratio. The summary may not reflect the minimum and maximum contract charges offered by the Company as contract owners may not have selected all available and applicable contract options as discussed in Note 1. The table reflects contract owner units only.

Prudential held 9,807,865, 10,086,116, 10,421,720, 10,619,027 and 11,217,512 units representing $24,772,123, $22,480,400, $20,733,052, $20,075,011 and $20,962,590 of net assets as of December 31, 2006, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Charges for mortality risk, expense risk and administrative expenses are used by Prudential to purchase additional units in its account resulting in no impact to its net assets.
* | This amount represents the proportionate share of the net investment income from the underlying Partnership divided by the total average assets of the Account. This ratio excludes those expenses, such as mortality and expense charges, that result in direct reductions in the unit values. | |
** | These ratios represent the annualized contract expenses of the separate account, consisting primarily of mortality and expense charges, for each period indicated. The ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values. Charges made directly to contract owner accounts through the redemption of units and expenses of the underlying Partnership are excluded. | |
*** | These amounts represent the total return for the periods indicated, including changes in the value of the underlying Partnership, and reflect deductions for all items included in the expense ratio. The total return does not include any expense assessed through the redemption of units; inclusion of these expenses in the calculation would result in a reduction in the total return presented. |
Charges and Expenses
A. | Mortality Risk and Expense Risk Charges |
Mortality risk and expense risk charges are determined daily using an effective annual rate of 1.2%, 0.9%, 0.6% and 1.2% for PDISCO+, PVAL, PVAL $100,000 + face value and VIP, respectively. Mortality risk is the risk that life insurance contract owners may not live as long as estimated or annuitants may live longer than estimated and expense risk is the risk that the cost of issuing and administering the policies may exceed related charges by Prudential. The mortality risk and expense risk charges are assessed through reduction in unit values.
B. | Cost of Insurance and Other Related Charges |
Contract owner contributions are subject to certain deductions prior to being invested in the Account. The deductions for PVAL and PVAL $100,000 + face value are (1) state premium

taxes; (2) sales charges, up to 0.50%, which are deducted in order to compensate Prudential for the cost of selling the contract and (3) transaction costs which are deducted from each premium payment to cover premium collection and processing costs. Contracts are subject to charges on each basic premium for assuming a guaranteed minimum death benefit risk. This charge compensates Prudential for the risk that an insured may die at a time when the death benefit exceeds the benefit that would have been payable in the absence of a minimum guarantee. These charges are assessed through the redemption of units.
C. | Deferred Sales Charge |
A deferred sales charge, applicable to PVAL and PVAL $100,000 + face value and not to exceed 50% of the first year’s primary annual premium for PVAL contracts, is imposed upon surrenders of certain variable life insurance contracts to compensate Prudential for sales and other marketing expenses. The amount of any sales charge will depend on the number of years that have elapsed since the contract was issued. No sales charge will be imposed after the tenth year of the contract. No sales charge will be imposed on death benefits.
Also a deferred sales charge is imposed upon the withdrawals of certain purchase payments to compensate Prudential for sales and other marketing expenses for PDISCO+ and VIP. The amount of any sales charge will depend on the amount withdrawn and the number of contract years that have elapsed since the contract owner or annuitant made the purchase payments deemed to be withdrawn. No sales charge is made against the withdrawal of investment income. A reduced sales charge is imposed in connection with the withdrawal of a purchase payment to effect an annuity if three or more contract years have elapsed since the contract date, unless the annuity effected is an annuity certain. No sales charge is imposed upon death benefit payments or upon transfers made between subaccounts. This deferred sales charge is assessed through the redemption of units.
D. | Partial Withdrawal Charge |
A charge is imposed by Prudential on partial withdrawals of the cash surrender value for PVAL and PVAL $100,000 + face value. A charge equal to the lesser of $15 or 2% will be made in connection with each partial withdrawal of the cash surrender value of a contract. This charge is assessed through the redemption of units.
E. | Annual Maintenance Charge |
An annual maintenance charge, applicable to PDISCO+ and VIP, of $30 will be deducted if and only if the contract fund is less than $10,000 on a contract anniversary or at the time a full withdrawal is effected, including a withdrawal to effect an annuity. The charge is made by reducing accumulation units credited to a contract owner’s account.

THE PRUDENTIAL VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY PARTNERSHIP
For Year Ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004
Note 1: | Organization |
On April 29, 1988, The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership (the “Partnership”), a general partnership organized under New Jersey law, was formed through an agreement among The Prudential Insurance Company of America (“Prudential”), Pruco Life Insurance Company (“Pruco Life”), and Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey (“Pruco Life of New Jersey”). The Partnership was established as a means by which assets allocated to the real estate investment option under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts issued by the respective companies could be invested in a commingled pool. The partners in the Partnership are Prudential, Pruco Life and Pruco Life of New Jersey.
The Partnership’s policy is to invest at least 65% of its assets in direct ownership interests in income-producing real estate and participating mortgage loans.
The estimated market value of the Partnership’s shares is determined daily, consistent with the Partnership Agreement. On each day during which the New York Stock Exchange is open for business, the net asset value of the Partnership is estimated using the estimated market value of its assets, principally as described in Notes 2A, 2B and 2C below, reduced by any liabilities of the Partnership. The periodic adjustments to property values described in Notes 2A, 2B and 2C below and other adjustments to previous estimates are made on a prospective basis. There can be no assurance that all such adjustments to estimates will be made timely.
Shares of the Partnership are held by The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Account, Pruco Life Variable Contract Real Property Account and Pruco Life of New Jersey Variable Contract Real Property Account (the “Real Property Accounts”) and may be purchased and sold at the then current share value of the Partnership’s net assets. Share value is calculated by dividing the estimated market value of net assets of the Partnership as determined above by the number of shares outstanding. A contract owner participates in the Partnership through interests in the Real Property Accounts.
PREItm is the real estate advisory unit of Prudential Investment Management, Inc. (“PIM”), which is an indirectly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial Inc. (“PFI”). PREItm provides investment advisory services to the Partnership’s partners pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement as described in Note 10.
Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
A: | Basis of Presentation – The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Partnership have been presented on the market value basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The consolidated financial statements of Partnership include wholly owned entities, and those real estate partnerships in which the Partnership has a controlling interest. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
B: | Management’s Use of Estimates in the Financial Statements – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
C: | Real Estate Investments – Real estate investments are shown at estimated market value in accordance with the terms of the Partnership’s contracts. Properties owned are |

For Year Ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004

initially recorded at the purchase price plus closing costs. Development costs and major renovations are capitalized as a component of cost, and routine maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Real estate costs include the cost of acquired property, including all the tangible and intangible assets. Tangible assets include the value of all land, building and tenant improvements at the time of acquisition. Intangible assets include the value of any above and below market leases, in-place leases, and tenant relationships at the time of acquisition. Market value estimates are based upon property appraisal reports prepared by independent real estate appraisers (members of the Appraisal Institute or an equivalent organization) within a reasonable amount of time following acquisition of the real estate and no less frequently than annually thereafter. The Chief Real Estate Appraiser of PIM is responsible to assure that the valuation process provides independent and reasonable property market value estimates. American Appraisal Associates (the “Appraisal Management Firm”), an entity not affiliated with PIM, has been appointed by PIM to assist the Chief Real Estate Appraiser in maintaining and monitoring the independence and the accuracy of the appraisal process. Unless a property is currently held for sale, the market value of real estate investments does not reflect the transaction sale costs, which may be incurred upon disposition of the real estate investments.
Unconsolidated real estate partnerships are valued at the Partnership’s equity in net assets as reflected in the partnerships’ financial statements with properties valued as described above. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recorded at the original investment amount, plus or minus additional amounts invested or distributed, and is subsequently adjusted for the Partnership’s share of undistributed earnings or losses, including unrealized appreciation and depreciation, from the underlying entity.
Land and development properties held for future development is carried at acquisition cost including soft costs incurred prior to development.
The Partnership periodically enters into forward contracts to acquire, for a fixed price, real estate investments to be constructed in accordance with predetermined plans and specifications or those achieve a certain level of leasing. Where conditions precedent to funding have been met by its development partners, and the Partnership’s commitment to fund is firm, the amount of any unrealized gain or loss is recognized based upon the difference between the estimated investment’s market value as described above and the Partnership’s funding obligation. The funding obligation and related assets are recorded in the consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005, no such funding obligation existed.
As described above, the estimated market value of real estate and real estate related assets is determined through an appraisal process. These estimated market values may vary significantly from the prices at which the real estate investments would sell, since market prices of real estate investments can only be determined by negotiation between a willing buyer and seller and could be material to the consolidated financial statements. Although the estimated market values represent subjective estimates, management believes these estimated market values are reasonable approximations of market prices and the aggregate estimated value of investments in real estate is fairly presented as of December 31, 2006 and 2005.

For Year Ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004
Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
D: | Other Real Estate Investments – Other real estate investments include short term notes receivable, which are valued at the amount due and approximate market value. |
E: | Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalent are comprised of all short-term investments and investments in money market funds with a maximum maturity of three months. Cash equivalents consist of investments in the Prudential Investment Liquidity Pool offered and managed by an affiliate of PFI and are accounted for at market value. |
F: | Other Assets – Cash of $167,311 and $156,268 was maintained by the wholly owned and consolidated properties at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, for tenant security deposits and is included in Other Assets on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Other assets also include tenant receivables and are net of allowance for uncollectible accounts of $211,058 and $51,162 at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. |
G: | Investment Level Debt – Investment level debt is stated at the principal amount of the obligations outstanding. At times the Partnership may assume debt in connection with the purchase of real estate. For debt assumed, the Partnership allocates a portion of the purchase price to the below/above market debt and amortizes the premium/discount over the remaining life of the debt. |
H: | Deferred Financing Costs – Included in Other Assets are deferred financing costs amounting to $309,894 and $246,495 which are net of accumulated amortization of $80,227 and $80,227 as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and which are being amortized over the term of the related obligation. |
I: | Revenue Recognition – Revenue from real estate is recognized when earned in accordance with the terms of the respective leases. Revenue from certain real estate investments is net of all or a portion of related real estate expenses, as lease arrangements vary as to responsibility for payment of these expenses between tenants and the Partnership. Since real estate is stated at estimated market value, net income is not reduced by depreciation or amortization expense. |
J: | Equity in Income of Real Estate Partnership – Equity in income from real estate partnership operations represents the Partnership’s share of the current year’s partnership income as provided for under the terms of the partnership agreements. As is the case with wholly owned real estate, partnership net income is not reduced by depreciation or amortization expense. Frequency of distribution of income is determined by formal agreements or by the executive committee of the partnership. |
K: | Federal Income Taxes – The Partnership is not a taxable entity under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. The income and capital gains and losses of the Partnership are attributed, for federal income tax purposes, to the Partners in the Partnership. The Partnership may be subject to state and local taxes in jurisdictions in which it operates. |
L: | New Accounting Pronouncements – FASB Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”, (“FIN 46”) was issued in January 2003. In December 2003, FASB issued a revised interpretation of FIN 46(“FIN 46-R”), which supersedes FIN 46. |

Audit and Accounting Guide, “Audits of Investment Companies” (the “Audit Guide”). The effective date is delayed while the AICPA finalizes the proposed Statement of Position (“SOP”) on the clarification of the scope of the Audit Guide. Following the issuance of the final SOP, the FASB will consider modifyingFIN 46-R to provide an exception for companies that apply the Audit Guide. The Partnership is awaiting the final determination from the FASB in order to evaluate the extent in which, if any, its equity investments may need to be consolidated as a result of thisFIN 46-R.
In September 2006, the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or “SEC”, issued Staff Accounting Bulletin, or “SAB”, No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements.” The interpretations in this SAB express the staff’s views regarding the process of quantifying financial statement misstatements. Specifically, the SEC staff believes that registrants must quantify the impact on current period financial statements of correcting all misstatements, including both those occurring in the current period and the effect of reversing those that have accumulated from prior periods. This SAB should be applied beginning with the first fiscal year ending after November 15, 2006, with early adoption encouraged. Since the Partnership’s method for quantifying financial statement misstatements already considers those occurring in the current period and the effect of reversing those that have accumulated from prior periods, the adoption of SAB No. 108 should have no effect to the financial position and result of operations of the Partnership.
Note 3: Disclosure of Supplemental Cash Flow Information and Non-Cash Investing and Financing Activity
Cash paid for interest during the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005, and 2004, was $1,806,320, $2,324,397, and $2,595,651, respectively.
During the fourth quarter of 2005, a minority interest partner bought out the Account’s investment in a consolidated real estate partnership resulting in net proceeds of $15.9 million. This transaction resulted in the assumption of a mortgage loan by the partner of approximately $10.0 million and a reduction of the partner’s minority interest of $3.7 million.

Note 9: | Commitments and Contingencies |
In 1986, Prudential committed to fund up to $100 million to enable the Partnership to acquire real estate investments. Contributions to the Partnership under this commitment have been utilized for property acquisitions, and were to be returned to Prudential on an ongoing basis from contract owners’ net contributions and other available cash. The amount of the commitment has been reduced by $10 million for every $100 million in current value net assets of the Partnership. As of December 31, 2006, the cost basis of Prudential’s equity interest in the Partnership under this commitment (held through the Real Property Accounts) was $44.2 million. Prudential terminated this commitment on December 31, 2002.
The Partnership is subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. These matters are generally covered by insurance. In the opinion of Prudential’s management, the outcome of such matters will not have a significant effect on the financial position of the Partnership.
Note 10: | Other Related Party Transactions |
Pursuant to an investment management agreement, PIM charges the Partnership a daily investment management fee at an annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily gross asset valuation of the Partnership. For the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 management fees incurred by the Partnership were $3.1 million, $2.8 million, and $2.7 million, for each of the years, respectively.
The Partnership also reimburses PIM for certain administrative services rendered by PIM. The amounts incurred for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 were $146,930; $123,630; and $141,130, respectively, and are classified as administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
