Profiles of the resonant line λ765 Å and the subordinate line λ4058 Å of N IV have been calculated for a binary system model consisting of a Wolf-Rayet star and a low-mass companion (possibly, a relativistic object) by means of Sobolev's approximation. The equations of statistical equilibrium have been solved for the first 32 levels of N IV. Two cases have been considered: (1) detached zone of N V surrounding the Wolf-Rayet star and the companion; (2) common zone of N V. The criteria for detecting the existence of a companion in line profile observations have been formulated.
