Notes To Financial Statements                     

Reserve Investment Funds, Inc. (the corporation) is registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the Act) as a
diversified, open-end management investment company.  Reserve
Investment Fund (Reserve Fund) and Government Reserve Investment
Fund (Government Reserve Fund), are the two portfolios
established by the corporation and commenced operations on August
25, 1997.

The Reserve Investment Funds are offered as cash management
options only to mutual funds and other accounts managed by T.
Rowe Price and its affiliates and are not available to the
public.  Reserve Fund seeks preservation of capital, liquidity,
and, consistent with these, the highest possible current income,
through investments primarily in high-quality, money market
securities.  Government Reserve Fund's objectives are to maximize
stability of capital, liquidity, and, consistent with these, the
highest possible current income, through investments primarily in
U.S. Treasury securities.
 
Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Preparation     

The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for the investment
company industry; these principles may require the use of
estimates by fund management.

Valuation   

Securities are valued at amortized cost.  Assets and liabilities
for which such valuation procedures are deemed not to reflect
fair value are stated at fair value as determined in good faith
by or under the supervision of the officers of the fund, as
authorized by the Board of Directors.   

Premiums and discounts

Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized for both
financial reporting and tax purposes.

Distributions 

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend
date.  Income and capital gain distributions to the funds'
shareholders are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. Federal Income TaxesNo provision for federal income
taxes is required since each fund intends to qualify as a
regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable
income.

Other    

Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. 
Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. 
Realized gains and losses are reported on the identified cost
basis.

Note 2 - Investment Transactions

Repurchase Agreements  

All repurchase agreements are fully collateralized by U.S.
government securities. Collateral is in the possession of the
fund's custodian and is evaluated daily to ensure that its market
value exceeds the delivery value of the repurchase agreements at
maturity. Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, the fund
could experience a delay in recovering its value and a possible
loss of income or value if the counterparty fails to perform in
accordance with the terms of the agreement.

Note 3 - Federal income taxes

At November 30, 1997, the aggregate cost of investments for
federal income tax and financial reporting purposes was
$2,848,329,000 for the Reserve Fund and $352,769,000 for the
Government Reserve Fund.

Note 4 - Related Parties  

T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (T. Rowe Price) is the investment
manager for the Reserve and Government Reserve Funds.  T. Rowe
Price or its affiliates also provide investment management

however, T. Rowe Price and its affiliates receive management fees
from managing the assets invested in the Reserve and Government
Reserve Funds.

T. Rowe Price and its wholly-owned subsidiaries provide transfer
and dividend disbursing agent, accounting, shareholder,
