PAX WORLD MONEY MARKET FUND, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

================================================================================
1. Summary of Accounting Policies.
Pax World Money Market Fund, Inc. is a no-load,  open-end management  investment
company  registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Fund has three
classes of stock  authorized,  the Individual  Investor Class, the Institutional
Class and the Broker  Service Class.  The  Individual  Investor Class and Broker
Service  Class  shares are subject to service  fees  pursuant to the Fund's Rule
12b-1   Distribution   and  Service   Plan  and  are  sold   through   financial
intermediaries  who provide  servicing to Individual  Investor  Class and Broker
Service Class  shareholders for which they receive  compensation  from Pax World
Management  Corp.  (the  "Advisor"),  Reich & Tang Asset  Management,  L.P. (the
"Sub-Advisor"),  or Reich & Tang  Distributors,  Inc. ("the  Distributor").  The
Institutional  Class shares are not subject to a service fee and either are sold
directly to institutional investors or are sold through financial intermediaries
that  do  not  receive  compensation  from  the  Advisor,   Sub-Advisor  or  the
Distributor.  The  Broker  Service  Class  shares are  subject to an  additional
sub-transfer  agent  accounting  fee.  In all  other  respects,  the  Individual
Investor Class,  Institutional  Class and Broker Service Class shares  represent
the same interest in the income and assets of the Fund.  Distribution  of Broker
Service  Class  shares  commenced  on January  13,  1999.  The Fund's  financial
statements  are  prepared  in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles for investment companies as follows:

     a) Valuation of Securities -
     Investments are valued at amortized cost.  Under this valuation  method,  a
     portfolio  instrument  is valued at cost and any  discount  or  premium  is
     amortized on a constant basis to the maturity of the instrument.

     b) Federal Income Taxes -
     It is the Fund's  policy to comply with the  requirements  of the  Internal
     Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
     all of its taxable income to its shareholders.  Therefore, no provision for
     federal income tax is required.

     c) Dividends and Distributions -
     Dividends from investment income (including net realized short-term capital
     gains) are declared daily and paid monthly.  Capital gains distributions if
     any,  will be made at least  annually and in no event later than sixty days
     after the end of the Fund's fiscal year.

     d) Organization Costs -
     Organization  costs are being  deferred and  amortized  on a straight  line
     basis  over a  period  of  five  years  from  the  Fund's  commencement  of
     operations.  The proceeds of any redemptions by the original shareholder of
     the  initial  shares  will be  reduced  by a pro rata  portion  of any then
     unamortized  organizational  expenses,  based on the  ratio  of the  shares
     redeemed to the total initial shares  outstanding  immediately prior to the
     redemption.

     e) Use of Estimates -
     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
     accepted  accounting  principles  requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions  that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
     disclosure  of  contingent  assets  and  liabilities  at  the  date  of the
     financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in
     net assets from  operations  during the reporting  period.  Actual  results
     could differ from those estimates.

     f) General -
     Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income
     is  accrued  as  earned.   Realized   gains  and  losses  from   securities
     transactions  are recorded on the identified  cost basis.  It is the Fund's
     policy to take  possession of securities  as  collateral  under  repurchase
     agreements  and to  determine  on a daily  basis  that  the  value  of such
     securities are sufficient to cover the value of the repurchase agreements.

================================================================================
2. Investment Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Under the Advisory Agreement,  the Fund will pay Pax World Management Corp. (the
"Advisor")  an  annual  advisory  fee of .15% of the  Fund's  average  daily net
assets.

Pursuant to the terms of a Sub-Advisory  Agreement between the Advisor and Reich
& Tang Asset  Management  L.P.  (the  "Sub-advisor"),  the Advisor  will pay the
Sub-Advisor  an annual  management  fee of .075% of the Fund's average daily net
assets from its advisory fee.

Pursuant to an Administrative  Services  Agreement for the Fund, the Sub-Advisor
receives an annual fee of .10% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Pursuant to a  Distribution  and  Service  Plan  adopted  under  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission Rule 12b-1,  the Fund and Reich & Tang  Distributors,  Inc.
(the  "Distributor")  have entered into a Shareholder  Servicing  Agreement only
with  respect to the  Individual  Investor  Class and the Broker  Service  Class
shares of the Fund. For its services under the Shareholder  Servicing Agreement,
the  Distributor  receives  from the Fund with  respect  only to the  Individual
Investor Class and the Broker Service Class shares,  a service fee equal to .25%
per annum of the average daily net assets.

During  the  period  ended  July  31,  1999,  the  Advisor  and the  Sub-Advisor
voluntarily  waived  advisory and  administrative  services  fees of $40,079 and
$46,125, respectively.

Fees are paid to Directors who are unaffiliated with the Advisor on the basis of
$1,000 per annum plus $250 per meeting attended.

Included  under the  caption  "Shareholder  servicing  and  related  shareholder
expenses" are fees of $11,562 paid to Reich & Tang  Services,  Inc. an affiliate
of the Sub-Advisor as servicing agent for the Institutional Class.

Included in the Statement of Operations under the captions "Custodian  expenses"
and "Shareholder servicing and related shareholder expenses" are expense offsets
of $1,279.
