REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To the Partners of
Direct Sales International L.P.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Direct Sales
International L.P. as of December 31, 1999, and the related statements of
operations, changes in partners' capital and cash flows for the year then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the 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. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Direct Sales International L.P.
as of December 31, 1999, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States.
