                      INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


 The Board of Directors and
 the Retirement Committee
 Ceridian Corporation:

 We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available
 for benefits with fund information of the Ceridian Corporation
 Personal Investment Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 1993 and
 1992, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for
 benefits with fund information for the year ended December 31, 1993.
 These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's
 management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
 financial statements based on our audits.

 We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
 standards.  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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
 fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for
 benefits with fund information as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and
 the changes in net assets available for benefits with fund information
 for the year ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally
 accepted accounting principles.

 Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
 basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental
 schedules of assets held for investment purposes and reportable
 transactions are presented for purposes of complying with the
 Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure
 under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and are not
 a required part of the basic financial statements.  The supplemental
 schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
 the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are
 fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
 financial statements taken as a whole.

                         December 31, 1993 and 1992

  (1)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

       (a)  Basis of Presentation

            The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the
            accrual basis of accounting.

       (b)  Custodian of Investments

            Under the terms of a trust agreement between T. Rowe Price
            Trust Company (the "Trustee") and Ceridian Corporation (the
            "Company"), the Trustee holds, manages, and invests in the
            funds selected by the Company's Retirement Committee to be
            available for investment by participants under the Ceridian
            Corporation Personal Investment Plan (the "Plan").  The Trustee
            carries its own banker's blanket bond in excess of $50,000,000
            insuring against losses caused, among other things, by
            dishonesty of employees, burglary, robbery, misplacement,
            forgery and counterfeit money.

       (c)  Investments

            Investments are stated at their approximate fair market value.
            Investments in the Company's common stock are valued at prices
            published in the New York Stock Exchange Composite Transaction
            listing.  Investments in Control Data Systems, Inc. common
            stock are valued at prices published in the National
            Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations listing.
            Investments in the other funds are valued using daily net asset
            value calculations performed by the funds and published by the
            National Association of Securities Dealers.  Loans receivable
            from participants are valued at principal amount plus accrued
            interest which approximates fair value.  Net realized gains or
            losses are recognized by the Plan upon the sale of its
            investments or portions thereof on the basis of average cost to
            each investment program.  Purchases and sales of securities are
            recorded on a trade date basis.

       (d)  Costs and Expenses

            All costs and expenses of administering the Plan are paid by
            the Company and adopting affiliates.

                CERIDIAN CORPORATION PERSONAL INVESTMENT PLAN
                        Notes to Financial Statements
                         December 31, 1993 and 1992

  (2)  Description of the Plan

       The Plan is a defined contribution plan, qualified under Section
       401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, which allows eligible
       participants to direct the employer to contribute a portion of the
       employee's compensation to the plan on a pre-tax basis through
       payroll deductions.  Participation is limited to Company employees
       who are U.S. citizens or resident aliens paid under the U.S.
       domestic payroll system and have completed 900 hours of service
       within a twelve month eligibility period.  The Plan is administered
       by the Retirement Committee of Ceridian Corporation (the "Company"),
       which is appointed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
       The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement
       Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").

  (3)  Participant Accounts and Vesting

       The Trustee maintains an account for each participant, including
       participant directed allocations to each investment fund.  Each
       participant's account is credited with the participant's
       contribution and allocations of any Company contribution and Plan
       earnings, less loans and withdrawals, based on the direction of the
       participant.  Participants are immediately vested in their
       contributions and Company contributions, plus actual earnings
       thereon; therefore, there are no forfeitures.

  (4)  Contributions

       Participants may direct the Company to contribute to the Plan on
       their behalf through payroll deduction from 1% to 17% of their
       compensation in any pay period, subject to certain limitations.
       During 1993, the Plan limited contributions on behalf of highly
       compensated participants to 5% before and 6% after May 1.  The
       limitation under the Internal Revenue Code for 1993 was $8,994 for
       the total participant contribution during the Plan year.  In
       addition, for 1993, the Company made basic monthly matching
       contributions totalling $883,000 and declared a year-end performance
       matching contribution of $775,000.  The basic monthly matching
       contributions were determined on the basis of 25% of the participant
       directed contribution, up to a maximum of 3% of compensation in each
       pay period and required no performance objective.  The year-end
       performance matching contribution resulted from the achievement of
       certain Company economic performance criteria and amounted to 25% of
       the participant-directed contribution during 1993, up to a maximum
       of 3% of compensation, for participants who were employees on
       December 31, 1993.

                         December 31, 1993 and 1992

  (5)  Withdrawals

       Participants, who are still employed by the Company, may only
       withdraw from their account for "financial hardships," as defined by
       federal regulations, for total disability, or if the participant is
       59 1/2 years old.  Withdrawals are also permitted in the event of
       termination of employment, retirement or death.

  (6)  Loans

       Participants may borrow up to 50 percent of their before-tax account
       balance.  Any loan must be in a multiple of $100, at least $1,000,
       and not more than $50,000 less the amount of the highest loan
       balance outstanding during the 12-month period that ends the day
       before the loan is made.  Participants may not have more than five
       short-term (one to five years) loans and one long-term (six to ten
       years) loan outstanding.  Effective January 1, 1994, the number of
       short-term loans permitted to be outstanding at one time is two.
       The interest rate is set by the Plan administrator and is based on
       the prime interest rates charged by major national banks.  Each loan
       is approved by the Plan administrator or a delegate, and the Plan
       Trustee maintains a loan receivable account for any participant with
       an outstanding loan.

  (7)  Control Data Systems Stock Fund

       On July 14, 1992, the Company declared a dividend distribution
       consisting of one share of the common stock of its wholly owned
       subsidiary, Control Data Systems, Inc., for every four shares of the
       Company's common stock held of record at the close of business on
       July 29, 1992.  The Trustee transferred the stock dividend valued at
       $1,011,544 from the Ceridian Stock Fund to the Control Data Systems
       Stock Fund.  Participants were not allowed to direct contributions
       or make transfers to the Control Data Systems Stock Fund.  All funds
       in the Control Data Systems Stock Fund were withdrawn or transferred
       to another investment option by July 29, 1993 and the Fund was then
       closed.

                        Notes to Financial Statements
                         December 31, 1993 and 1992

  (9)  Number of Participants

       The number of participants in each investment program as of December
       31, 1993 and 1992 is as follows:

                                               1993       1992

           Ceridian Stock Fund                 2,141      2,570
           Control Data Systems Stock Fund    Closed      2,484
           New Horizons Fund                   1,953      1,881
           International Stock Fund              715        268
           Capital Appreciation Fund             474        279
           Prime Reserve Fund                  2,529      2,390
           New Income Fund                     1,667      1,998
           Balanced Fund                         418        156
           Equity Income Fund                  2,624      2,756

       The total number of participants in the Plan was less than the sum
       of the number of participants shown above because many were
       participating in more than one of the funds.

  (10) Income Tax Status

       The Plan has received a favorable determination letter of tax
       qualification dated March 7, 1984, from the Internal Revenue
       Service.  The Plan administrator believes the Plan, subsequently
       amended, continues to qualify under the provisions of Section 401(a)
       of the Internal Revenue Code, and the trust established thereunder
       is thereby exempt from federal income taxes under Section 501(a) of
       the Code.  Contributions to the Plan will not be included in the
       participant's taxable income for federal and, in most states, state
       income tax purposes until distributed or withdrawn.  Each
       participant's portion of earnings from the investments made with
       contributions under the Plan, generally are not taxable until
       distributed or withdrawn.

  (11) Party-in-interest

       T. Rowe Price Trust Company, as Trustee, is a party-in-interest with
       respect to the Plan.  In the opinion of the Trustee, transactions
       between the Plan and the Trustee are exempt from being considered as
       prohibited transaction under ERISA section 408(b).
