                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors and
the Retirement Committee of
Ceridian Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the Ceridian Corporation Personal Investment Plan (the "Plan") as of December
31, 1999 and 1998, and the related statements of changes in net assets available
for benefits for the years then ended. 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 auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. 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 as of December 31,
1999 and 1998, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the
years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America.

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

                  CERIDIAN CORPORATION PERSONAL INVESTMENT PLAN
                          Notes to Financial Statements
                           December 31, 1999 and 1998

(1)      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         (a)      BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND USE OF ESTIMATES

                  The accompanying financial statements of the Ceridian
                  Corporation Personal Investment Plan, as amended (the "Plan"),
                  have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. The
                  preparation of financial statements in conformity with
                  generally accepted accounting principles requires the Plan
                  administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect
                  the reported amounts of net assets available for benefits and
                  disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
                  the financial statements and the reported changes in net
                  assets available for benefits during the reporting period.
                  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

         (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
                  contributions to the Plan and income therefrom in funds
                  selected by the Company's Retirement Committee to the extent
                  directed by participants in the Plan. The Trustee carries its
                  own banker's blanket bond 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 value.
                  Investments in the Company's common stock are valued at
                  closing prices published in the Consolidated Transaction
                  Reporting System of the New York Stock Exchange. Investments
                  in mutual 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 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

                  Costs and expenses of administering the Plan are paid by the
                  Company and affiliated companies who have adopted the Plan
                  ("Adopting Affiliates").

                          Notes to Financial Statements
                           December 31, 1999 and 1998

(2)      DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

         The Plan is a defined contribution plan, qualified under Section 401(a)
         of the Internal Revenue Code, which includes provisions under Section
         401(k) allowing an eligible participant to direct the employer to
         contribute a portion of the participant's compensation to the Plan on a
         pre-tax basis through payroll deductions. Since January 1, 1995, only
         those employees of the Company and Adopting Affiliates who are U.S.
         citizens or resident aliens paid under the U.S. domestic payroll system
         and participate in the Company's qualified defined benefit pension plan
         are eligible to participate in the Plan. The Plan is administered by
         the Company through its Director of Employee Benefits and through its
         Retirement Committee, 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 employer contribution and Plan earnings, less
         loans and withdrawals, based on the direction of the participant.
         Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and employer
         contributions, plus actual earnings thereon; therefore, there are no
         forfeitures.

(4)      CONTRIBUTIONS

         Participants may direct their employer 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
         1999 and 1998, the Plan administrator, in accordance with the terms of
         the Plan, limited payroll deduction contributions on behalf of highly
         compensated participants to 8% of their compensation. The Internal
         Revenue Code limited the total salary deferral contributions of any
         participant year to $10,000, and provided that no participant may make
         salary deferral contributions to the Plan from pay in excess of
         $160,000 for 1999 and 1998. These amounts are subject to periodic
         adjustment for increases in the cost of living in accordance with
         Treasury regulations. The Company and Adopting Affiliates made basic
         monthly matching contributions totaling $901,000 in 1999 and $495,000
         in 1998 and declared year-end performance matching contributions of
         $177,000 in 1999 and $858,000 in 1998.

                  CERIDIAN CORPORATION PERSONAL INVESTMENT PLAN
                          Notes to Financial Statements
                           December 31, 1999 and 1998

         The basic monthly matching contributions were determined on the basis
         of 50% for 1999 and 25% for 1998 of a participant's salary deferral
         contributions, up to a maximum of 3% of eligible compensation, and did
         not require the satisfaction of performance criteria. The year-end
         performance-based matching contribution resulted from the achievement
         of certain Company economic performance criteria and amounted to 30%
         for 1999 and 50% for 1998 of a participant's salary deferral
         contributions during the year, up to a maximum of 3% of eligible
         compensation, for participants who were employees on the last day of
         the respective years.

(5)      WITHDRAWALS

         Participants who are still employed by the Company or one of its
         Adopting Affiliates may only withdraw from their Plan account for
         "financial hardship," as defined by federal regulations, for total
         disability, or if the participant is 59 1/2 years old. Withdrawals are
         also permitted pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order or in
         the event of termination of employment, retirement or death.

(6)      LOANS

         Participants may borrow up to 50% of their salary deferral
         contributions and investment earnings on those contributions. Any loan
         must be in a multiple of $100, be at least $1,000, and not be 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 two short-term (maturity of five
         years or less) loans and one long-term (maturity over five and not to
         exceed ten years) loan outstanding. 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.

                           December 31, 1999 and 1998

(7)      INCOME TAX STATUS

         The Plan received a favorable determination letter regarding the Plan's
         tax qualification dated September 7, 1995 from the Internal Revenue
         Service stating that the Plan continues to qualify under the provisions
         of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, and that the trust
         established thereunder is thereby exempt from federal income taxes
         under Section 501(a) of the Code. The Company believes the Plan
         continues to operate in compliance with the applicable requirements of
         the Internal Revenue 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.

(8)      PARTY-IN-INTEREST

         The 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 transactions under ERISA
         section 408(b).

(9)      INVESTMENTS

         The following table presents individual investment programs whose
         carrying values represent 5% or more of the Plan's net assets available
         for plan benefits at the end of each of the respective years (dollars
         in thousands):
