past performance does not guarantee future results. Morningstar ratings are
calculated from the fund's three- and five-year average annual returns in
excess of 90-day Treasury bills with appropriate fee adjustments, and a
risk factor that reflects fund performance below 90-day T-bill returns. The
fund received four stars for the three-year period, five stars for the
five-year period, and four stars for the ten-year period. The top 10% of

Letter from the Fund's President
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Shareholders,
Municipal bonds endured a challenging investment environment during Scudder
Managed Municipal Bonds' most recent fiscal year ended May 31, 2000. The fund
posted a -0.62% total return during the period, but outperformed the -3.29%
average return of its peers for the same period as compiled by Lipper. To match
the fund's tax-free 5.19% 30-day SEC yield on May 31, a taxable investment for
investors in the 36% tax bracket would have had to yield 8.11%. Over the period,
municipal bonds were negatively affected by significant interest rate increases
across all fixed income markets as the Federal Reserve attempted to restrain
surging U.S. economic growth and head off a major increase in inflation by
incrementally raising the Federal Funds Rate to 6.50%.
Following this period of relative underperformance compared with Treasuries, we
nevertheless believe the municipal market offers attractive return potential:
Adjusted for inflation, municipal yields are high by historical standards and
are attractive when compared to yields of comparable Treasury bonds. As of May
31, yields of 10-year AAA-rated municipal bonds were 84.40% of comparable
Treasuries. Second, recent declines in the issuance of municipal bonds should
provide strong support for bond prices.

<PAGE>
On a related note, we'd like to point out some of the advantages of owning a
municipal bond fund compared with holding individual municipal bonds. First and
foremost, municipal bond funds offer professional management: While many
investors believe that purchasing an individual bond is a relatively simple
process, knowing what price to pay for a municipal bond and what structure and
characteristics to seek can be confusing, and can make a dramatic difference in
how a bond will perform on a total return basis. Though investors understandably
value income and coupon level, they are not the only factors that determine
whether a bond will prove to be a worthwhile investment. Other important
advantages offered by municipal bond funds include portfolio diversification,
dividend reinvestment, and quarterly statements that display performance
information clearly and concisely.
Thank you for investing with Scudder. If you have any questions regarding

Portfolio Management Discussion
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
May 31, 2000
Dear Shareholders,
Scudder Managed Municipal Bonds achieved its objectives and distinguished itself
by ranking in the top 2% of similar funds for total return performance during
the 12 months ended May 31, 2000. The fund's most recent fiscal year comprised
one of the most difficult periods for fixed-income investments since 1994,
however, as the Federal Reserve Board Open Market Committee (FOMC) raised
short-term interest rates 175 basis points (1.75%) to 6.50%. Reflecting this
adverse environment, the fund posted a -0.62% total return for the 12 months
ended May 31, 2000. This return placed the fund fourth out of 272 peers as
compiled by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. The fund's strong competitive
results also placed it in the top 3% of similar funds for the one-, three-, and
five-year periods as shown in the table below.
During the 12-month period, the Federal Reserve's resolve to head off inflation,
coupled with weak investor demand for municipal bond funds, led to negative
returns. Strong U.S. economic growth, the lowest unemployment rate in 30 years,
and brisk consumer spending prompted the Fed to tighten monetary policy.
For the fund, the overriding challenge was to preserve capital. We are pleased
to report that the fund's return outpaced the -3.29% return of similar municipal
bond funds during the 12 months ended May 31, 2000. In addition, Scudder Managed
Municipal Bonds received a

four-star (above average) rating from Morningstar as of May 31 (see page 2 for
additional information). Please turn to the Performance Update on page 5 for
more information on the fund's long-term progress, including comparisons with
the unmanaged Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index.
The Treasury Initiates A Buyback
Contrasting with the pressures on fixed income markets generated by FOMC
interest rate increases, in February the U.S. Treasury announced plans to buy
back some long-term debt and hold fewer debt auctions. This development
generated a welcome rally following five months of negative fixed-income
performance. The Treasury said that it plans to buy back 30-year government
bonds and reduce auctions all along the maturity spectrum.
Intermediate- and long-term bonds typically provide higher yields than
securities maturing in a year or less since they involve more interest-rate
risk. This pattern held true for both Treasuries and municipal bonds in the
autumn and winter of 1999. However, as 2000 began, the Treasury yield curve
inverted, so that by May 31, 2000, one-year Treasury bills offered higher yields
than 30-year bonds. While the municipal yield curve flattened during the period,
it did not invert. Long-term municipal bond yields reached a historically
attractive ratio -- providing nearly all of the yield of comparable-maturity
Treasuries. Long-maturity municipal bonds typically yield about 85% to 90% of a
similar-maturity Treasury.
Extending Maturity to Increase Yield
Scudder Managed Municipal Bonds' goal is to provide a high level of tax-free
income from an actively managed portfolio consisting primarily of
investment-grade municipal bonds. Over the course of the period, higher interest
rates created challenges, but also provided opportunities to reposition the
fund's portfolio to what we believe is a favorable stance over the near term.
Accordingly, our recent portfolio strategy has been to:
10
<PAGE>
1) purchase intermediate-term bonds. Over the period, the fund sold bonds in
the 15-year or longer range when the municipal yield curve was historically
flat, and purchased bonds in the five- to 12-year range. This portion of
the yield curve currently offers the best relative yield and total return
potential given the steepness of the curve.
2) recognize losses on certain bonds in order to offset capital gains in the
fund's portfolio and carry losses forward in the future. This strategy
provides us with additional flexibility to restructure the portfolio as
needed, reducing concern about incurring significant capital gains when
bonds are sold for a profit.
In addition, the fund has maintained its cautious stance on the market with
respect to interest rate risk, increasing its average duration only as much as
its competitive universe. As of May 31, the fund's average duration was 7.35
years. (Duration gives relative weight to both principal and interest payments
through the life of a bond and has replaced average maturity as the standard
measure of interest rate sensitivity among professional investors. Generally,
the shorter the duration, the less sensitive a portfolio will be to changes in
interest rates.)
Longer term, we continue to emphasize call protection when purchasing bonds for
the fund's portfolio. (Generally a bond is called in by its issuer so that it
can be refinanced at a lower prevailing rate.) Our call-protection strategy
provides a more reliable income stream for the fund than would exist if the
portfolio held a significant proportion of bonds that could be called in before
their stated maturities.
Lastly, the fund's overall level of portfolio quality remains high, with over
73% of the fund's portfolio rated AAA or AA, or of equivalent quality. And
diversification remains an important strategy for the fund, allowing us to
spread risk over a large number of sectors, maturities, and geographic areas. As
of May 31, the fund held securities issued in 28 states plus the District of
Columbia, Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico. The Portfolio Summary on
11
<PAGE>
page 8 provides more information about the fund's holdings, including quality,
maturity, and sector representation.
Our Outlook
Given recent government statistics that suggest U.S. economic growth has begun
to moderate and the fact that the Federal Reserve raised its short-term
interest-rate target in May by 50 basis points, municipal bonds may benefit from
a more stable interest rate environment over the coming months. We believe the
municipal bond market provides attractive value, with yields of longer-maturity
municipals still close to those of Treasuries. In January 2000, the average
municipal bond yield as measured by The Bond Buyer's Revenue Bond Index, reached
6.35%, the highest level since August 1995.
We believe Scudder Managed Municipal Bonds is well positioned to benefit from
historically attractive yields on longer-term municipal bonds. A moderately
growing U.S. economy enhances municipal finances, which should continue to help
bolster municipal credit ratings. And continuing volatility in the equity and
taxable bond markets could prompt more investors to diversify their portfolios
with tax-exempt bonds.
In terms of fund strategy, we will continue to seek competitive returns by
purchasing bonds in the most attractive maturities with the best bond structure
over the coming months. And rather than attempting to make investment decisions
based on short-term market movements, we will search for the most attractively
valued bonds as we seek a high level of tax-free income for our shareholders.
Thank you for investing with Scudder.
Sincerely,
Your Portfolio Management Team

Glossary of Investment Terms
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bond An interest-bearing security issued by the federal, state,
or local government or a corporation that obligates the
issuer to pay the bondholder a specified amount of interest
for a stated period -- usually a number of years -- and to
repay the face amount of the bond at its maturity date.
General A municipal bond backed by the "full faith and credit"
Obligation (including the taxing and further borrowing power) of the
Bond city, state, or agency that issues the bond. A general
obligation bond is repaid with the issuer's general revenue
and borrowings.
Inflation An overall increase in the prices of goods and services, as
happens when business and consumer spending increases
relative to the supply of goods available in the marketplace
-- in other words, when too much money is chasing too few
goods. High inflation has a negative impact on the prices of
fixed-income securities.
Municipal Bond An interest-bearing debt security issued by a state or local
government entity.
Net Asset The price per share of a mutual fund based on the sum of the
Value (NAV) market value of all the securities owned by the fund, plus
other assets less liabilities, divided by the number of
outstanding shares.
Taxable The level of yield a fully taxable instrument would have to
Equivalent provide to equal that of a tax-free municipal bond on an
Yield after-tax basis. The standard yield reference for bond
30-Day SEC funds, based on a formula prescribed by the SEC. This
Yield annualized yield calculation reflects the 30-day average of
the income earnings of every holding in a given fund's
portfolio, net of expenses, assuming each is held to
maturity.
Total Return The most common yardstick to measure the performance of a
fund. Total return -- annualized or compound -- is based on
a combination of share price changes plus income and capital
gain distributions, if any, expressed as a percentage gain
or loss in value.

(a) The cost for federal income tax purposes was $668,155,335. At May 31, 2000,
net unrealized appreciation for all securities based on tax cost was
$22,508,133. This consisted of aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for
all securities in which there was an excess of value over tax cost of
$28,853,928 and aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all securities
in which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $6,345,795.
(b) Bond is insured by one of these companies: AMBAC, Capital Guaranty, FGIC,
FSA or MBIA/BIG.
(c) Prerefunded: Bonds which are prerefunded are collateralized by U.S.
Treasury securities which are held in escrow and are used to pay principal
and interest on tax-exempt issues and to retire the bonds in full at the
earliest refunding date.
(d) When-issued or forward delivery securities (See Note A in Notes to
Financial Statements).
(e) At May 31, 2000, these securities, in part or in whole, have been
segregated to cover when-issued securities.
* Floating rate and monthly, weekly or daily demand notes are securities
whose yields vary with a designated market index or market rate, such as
the coupon-equivalent of the Treasury bill rate. Variable rate demand notes
are securities whose yields are periodically reset at levels that are
generally comparable to exempt commercial paper. These securities are
payable on demand within seven calendar days and normally incorporate an
irrevocable letter of credit from a major bank. These notes are carried,
for purposes of calculating average weighted maturity, at the longer of the
period remaining until the next rate change or to the extent of the demand
period.
** ETM: Bonds bearing the description ETM (escrowed to maturity) are
collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities which are held in escrow by a
trustee and used to pay principal and interest on bonds so designated.
*** Inverse floating rate notes are instruments whose yields may change based
on the change in the relationship between long-term and short-term interest
rates and which exhibit added interest rate sensitivity compared to other
bonds with a similar maturity. These securities are shown at their rates as
of May 31, 2000.
AMT: Alternative minimum tax

Notes to Financial Statements
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A. Significant Accounting Policies
Scudder Managed Municipal Bonds (the "Fund") is a diversified series of Scudder
Municipal Trust (the "Trust") which is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment
company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. On August 10, 1998, the
Fund changed its fiscal year end for financial reporting and federal income tax
purposes to May 31 from December 31.
The Fund's financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States which require the use of
management estimates. The policies described below are followed consistently by
the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
Security Valuation. Portfolio debt securities purchased with an original
maturity greater than sixty days are valued by pricing agents approved by the
officers of the Trust, whose quotations reflect broker/dealer-supplied
valuations and electronic data processing techniques. If the pricing agents are
unable to provide such quotations, the most recent bid quotation supplied by a
bona fide market maker shall be used. Money market instruments purchased with an
original maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost.
All other securities are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith
by the Valuation Committee of the Board of Trustees.
Futures Contracts. A futures contract is an agreement between a buyer or seller
and an established futures exchange or its clearinghouse in which the buyer or
seller agrees to take or make a delivery of a specific amount of a financial
instrument at a specified price on a specific date (settlement date). During the
period, the Fund purchased interest rate futures as a temporary substitute for
purchasing selected investments. In addition, the Fund also sold interest rate
futures as a temporary substitute for selling selected investments.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit with a
financial intermediary an amount ("initial margin") equal to a certain
percentage of the face value indicated in the futures contract. Subsequent
payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the Fund dependent upon
the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security and are recorded
for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Fund. When
entering into a closing transaction, the Fund will realize a gain or loss equal
to the difference between the value of the futures contract to sell
30
<PAGE>
and the futures contract to buy. Futures contracts are valued at the most recent
settlement price.
Certain risks may arise upon entering into futures contracts, including the risk
that an illiquid secondary market will limit the Fund's ability to close out a
futures contract prior to the settlement date and that a change in the value of
a futures contract may not correlate exactly with the changes in the value of
the securities or currencies hedged. When utilizing futures contracts to hedge,
the Fund gives up the opportunity to profit from favorable price movements in
the hedged positions during the term of the contract.
When Issued/Delayed Delivery Securities. The Fund may purchase securities with
delivery or payment to occur at a later date beyond the normal settlement
period. At the time the Fund enters into a commitment to purchase a security,
the transaction is recorded and the value of the security is reflected in the
net asset value. The value of the security may vary with market fluctuations. No
interest accrues to the Fund until payment takes place. At the time the Fund
enters into this type of transaction it is required to segregate cash or other
liquid assets at least equal to the amount of the commitment.
Federal Income Taxes. The Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, which are applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable and tax-exempt income
to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Fund paid no federal income taxes and no
federal income tax provision was required.
At May 31, 2000, the Fund had a net tax basis capital loss carryforward of
approximately $3,700,000 which may be applied against any realized net taxable
capital gains of each succeeding year until fully utilized or until May 31,
2008, the expiration date, whichever occurs first.
In addition, the Fund inherited approximately $900,000 of capital losses from
its merger (see Note E) with Scudder Pennsylvania Tax Free Fund, which can be
used to offset gains in future years, or until May 31, 2007, the expiration
date, subject to certain limitations imposed by Section 382 of the Internal
Revenue Code.
In addition, from November 1, 1999 through May 31, 2000, the Fund incurred
approximately $1,600,000 of net realized capital losses. As permitted by tax
regulations, the Fund intends to elect to defer these losses and treat them as
arising in the fiscal year ending May 31, 2001.
31
<PAGE>
Distribution of Income and Gains. All of the net investment income of the Fund
is declared as a daily dividend and is distributed to shareholders monthly. Net
realized gains from investment transactions, in excess of available capital loss
carryforwards, would be taxable to the Fund if not distributed, and, therefore,
will be distributed to shareholders at least annually.
The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gains
distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal tax regulations
which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States. These differences primarily relate to investments in futures contracts.
As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on
investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from
distributions during such period. Accordingly, the Fund may periodically make
reclassifications among certain of its capital accounts without impacting the
net asset value of the Fund.
Investment Transactions and Investment Income. Investment transactions are
accounted for on the trade date. Interest income is recorded on an accrual

B. Purchases and Sales of Securities
During the year ended May 31, 2000, purchases and sales of municipal securities
(excluding short-term investments) aggregated $332,167,796 and $319,033,604,
respectively.
C. Related Parties
Under the Investment Management Agreement (the "Agreement") with Scudder Kemper
Investments, Inc. ("Scudder Kemper" or the "Adviser"), the Adviser directs the
investments of the Fund in accordance with its investment objectives, policies
and restrictions. The Adviser determines the securities, instruments and other
contracts relating to investments to be purchased, sold or entered into by the
Fund. In addition to portfolio management services, the Adviser provides certain
administrative services in accordance with the Agreement. The management fee
payable under the Agreement is equal to an annual rate of 0.55% on the first
$200,000,000 of the Fund's average daily net assets, 0.50% on the next
$500,000,000 of such net assets and 0.475% on such net assets in excess of
$700,000,000, computed and accrued daily and
32
<PAGE>
payable monthly. For the year ended May 31, 2000, the fee pursuant to this
Agreement amounted to $3,550,506, which was equivalent to an annual effective
rate of 0.52% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Scudder Service Corporation ("SSC"), a subsidiary of the Adviser, is the
transfer, dividend paying and shareholder service agent for the Fund. During the
year ended May 31, 2000, the amount charged to the Fund by SSC aggregated
$333,002, of which $26,653 is unpaid at May 31, 2000.
Scudder Fund Accounting Corporation ("SFAC"), a subsidiary of the Adviser, is
responsible for determining the daily net asset value per share and maintaining
the portfolio and general accounting records of the Fund. For the year ended May
31, 2000, the amount charged to the Fund by SFAC aggregated $103,967, of which
$7,740 is unpaid at May 31, 2000.
The Fund pays each Trustee not affiliated with the Adviser an annual retainer,
divided equally among the series of the Trust, plus specified amounts for
attended board and committee meetings. For the year ended May 31, 2000,
Trustees' fees and expenses aggregated $40,141. In addition, a one-time fee of
$59,607 was accrued for payment to those Trustees not affiliated with the
Adviser who are not standing for re-election, under the reorganization discussed
in Note G. Inasmuch as the Adviser will also benefit from administrative
efficiencies of a consolidated Board, the Adviser has agreed to bear $29,804 of
such costs.
D. Expense Off-Set Arrangements
The Fund has entered into arrangements with its custodian and transfer agent
whereby credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to
reduce a portion of the Fund's expenses. During the year ended May 31, 2000, the
Fund's custodian and transfer agent fees were reduced by $3,436 and $20,929,
respectively, under these arrangements.
E. Acquisition of Assets
On September 17, 1999, the Fund acquired all the net assets of Scudder
Pennsylvania Tax Free Fund pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by
shareholders on September 2, 1999. The acquisition was accomplished by a
tax-free exchange of 8,189,666 shares of the Fund (valued at $71,413,890) for
5,497,182 shares of Scudder Pennsylvania Tax Free Fund outstanding on September
17, 1999. Scudder Pennsylvania Tax Free Fund's net assets at that date
($71,413,890), including $1,222,223 of unrealized appreciation, were combined
with those of the Fund. The aggregate nets assets of the Fund
33
<PAGE>
immediately before the acquisition were $670,341,144. The combined net assets of
the Fund immediately following the acquisition were $741,755,034.
F. Line of Credit
The Fund and several other Scudder Funds (the "Participants") share in a $1
billion revolving credit facility for temporary or emergency purposes, including
the meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely
disposition of securities. The Participants are charged an annual commitment fee
which is allocated, pro rata based upon net assets, among each of the
Participants. Interest is calculated based on the market rates at the time of
the borrowing. The Fund may borrow up to a maximum of 33 percent of its net
assets under the agreement.
G. Reorganization
In early 2000, Scudder Kemper initiated a restructuring program for most of its
Scudder no-load open-end funds in response to changing industry conditions and
investor needs. The program proposes to streamline the management and operations
of most of the no-load open-end funds Scudder Kemper advises principally through
the liquidation of several small funds, mergers of certain funds with similar
investment objectives, the creation of one Board of Directors/Trustees and the
adoption of an administrative fee covering the provision of most of the services
currently paid for by the affected funds. Costs incurred in connection with this
restructuring initiative are being borne jointly by Scudder Kemper and certain
of the affected funds. These costs, including printing, shareholder meeting
expenses and professional fees, are presented as reorganization expenses in the
Statement of Operations of the Fund.

Report of Independent Accountants
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Trustees of Scudder Municipal Trust and the Shareholders of Scudder
Managed Municipal Bonds:
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Scudder Managed Municipal Bonds
(the "Fund") at May 31, 2000, the results of its operations, the changes in its
net assets, and the financial highlights for the periods indicated therein, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as
"financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation
of securities at May 31, 2000 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers,
provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
