INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Plan Committee of CSC Credit Services, Inc.
     Employee Savings Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for 
benefits of CSC Credit Services, Inc. Employee Savings Plan (the "Plan") as of 
September 30, 1996 and 1995, 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 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, such financial statements present fairly, in all material 
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of September 
30, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for 
the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting 
principles.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic 
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules of (1) 
assets held for investment as of September 30, 1996 and (2) reportable 
transactions for the year ended September 30, 1996 are presented for the 
purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic 
financial statements but are supplementary information required by the 
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under 
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  The Fund Information in 
the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits as of September 
30, 1996 and 1995, included in Note 10 to the accompanying financial 
statements, is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to 
present the changes in net assets available for plan benefits of the 
individual funds.  The supplemental schedules and Fund Information have been 
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the basic 
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material 
respects when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken 
as a whole.

               CSC CREDIT SERVICES, INC. EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN
                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
               FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 AND 1995

1.  DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

The following description of the CSC Credit Services, Inc. Employee Savings 
Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer 
to the plan documents for a more complete description of the Plan's 
provisions.

Under the provisions of the Plan document, CSC Credit Services, Inc. (the 
"Company") reserves the right to discontinue its contributions and terminate 
the plan in whole or in part at any time subject to the provisions of ERISA.  
During 1996 the Board of Directors of the Company unanimously approved the 
termination and merger of the Plan, in its entirety, effective November 30, 
1996.  All participants became 100% vested in their accounts, and all assets 
of the Plan were transferred into the Computer Sciences Corporation Matched 
Asset Plan (the "CSC MAP").  The Plan filed and subsequently received a 
favorable letter of determination from the IRS on November 30, 1996 affirming 
that the termination and merger of the Plan will not adversely effect the 
qualified status of the Trust created for the Plan.

General - Effective October 1, 1987, Associated Credit Services, Inc., 
established the Associated Credit Services, Inc. Employee Savings Plan.  The 
Plan's name was subsequently changed to the CSC Credit Services, Inc. Employee 
Savings Plan.

The Plan is a defined contribution savings plan for employees of the Company.  
Employees are eligible to participate after completing an employment year 
consisting of at least 1,000 hours of service.  The Plan is subject to 
provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") 
and its subsequent amendments and is considered a "cash or deferred 
arrangement" under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.  The 
general administration and operation of the Plan is vested in the plan 
committee (the "Committee").  The trustee of the Plan is Texas Commerce Trust 
Company N.A. (the "Trustee"), formerly Ameritrust Texas N.A.

Employee contributions are invested at each employee's discretion in the 
General Equity Fund, Fixed Income Fund, Common Stock Fund or Balanced 
Investment Fund on a percentage allocation basis in any increment of 25%.  The 
General Equity Fund is invested and reinvested in a pooled investment fund 
which, in turn, is invested in equity investments.  The Fixed Income Fund is 
invested and reinvested in annuities or other contracts with insurance 
companies, a short-term Bond fund and short-term cash investments.  The 
Company Stock Fund is invested and reinvested in Computer Sciences Corporation 
common stock.  The Balanced Investment Fund is invested and reinvested in an 
actively managed diversified portfolio of U.S. equities, bonds and cash 
equivalents.

Contributions - Participants may contribute from 2% to 15% of their 
compensation (not to exceed $9,500 and $9,240 for calendar years 1996 and 
1995, respectively).  Employer contributions equal 50% of the first 6% of a 
participant's contribution, not to exceed 3% of the participant's plan 
compensation.

Participant Accounts - Each participant's account is credited with the 
participant's contributions, the Company's matching contributions and 
earnings.  Allocations are based primarily on account balances at certain 
specified dates as provided under the terms of the Plan.


<PAGE>


Vesting - Upon normal retirement, death or disability, a participant is 
entitled to the entire balance of his or her account.  If a participant's 
employment is terminated for any other reason, such participant is entitled to 
the total of his or her employee contributions plus a vested percentage of the 
Company's matching contribution.  Participants vest in Company contributions 
as follows:

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting Basis - The financial statements are prepared using the accrual 
basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
principles.

Investments - Investments are presented in the financial statements at their 
fair values using the first-in first-out method.  If available, quoted market 
prices are used to value investments.  Investments in fixed income contracts 
are reported at contract values.  Purchases and sales of investments are 
recorded on the trade-date basis.  (See Note 7)

Benefit Payments - Benefit payments are recorded when paid.

Administrative Expenses - Administrative expenses are paid by the Company.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates 
and assumptions that affect 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 net appreciation in fair value of 
investments and contributions during the reporting period.  Actual results 
could differ from those estimates.

3.  CONTRIBUTIONS

Included in employee contributions for 1996 and 1995 are $49,724 and $993, 
respectively, of lump-sum distributions to employees rolled over from other 
employee benefit plans.

4.  RECONCILIATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO FORM 5500

 Benefits paid to participants per the Form 5500                $2,217,626
                                                                ==========
</TABLE>

Amounts allocated to withdrawing participants are recorded on the Form 5500 
for benefit claims that have been processed and approved for payment prior to 
September 30 but not yet paid as of that date.

5.  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The Plan obtained its latest tax determination letter on May 10, 1996, from 
the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") stating that the Plan, as then designed, 
was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue 
Code.  The plan administrator and the Plan's tax counsel believe that the Plan 
as currently designed is being operated in compliance with the applicable 
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.  Therefore, they believe that the 
Plan is qualified and considered tax-exempt as of the financial statement 
date.

6.  FORFEITURES

Upon termination, the nonvested portion of a participant's employer 
contribution account is forfeited and held in suspense.  If a participant 
resumes service under the Plan, he or she may, under certain circumstances, 
have the forfeited suspense account reinstated (including gains or losses).  
If the terminated employee is not re-employed before completion of five 
consecutive one-year breaks in service, his or her forfeited suspense account 
shall become available for allocation.  The Company reserves the right to use 
the forfeited balance to reduce future contributions by the employer.  
Accumulated forfeitures amounted to $97,285 and $34,033 for the years ended 
September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  During 1996 and 1995, the Company 
elected to utilize $356 and $12,991, respectively, of accumulated forfeitures 
to reduce employer contributions to the Plan.

7.  GUARANTEED INCOME CONTRACTS

The Plan invests in guaranteed income contracts with various reputable 
insurance companies which are held by the Trustee as custodian for the Fixed 
Income Fund.  Each account is credited monthly with the interest income earned 
accruing at a fixed-contract rate determined at origination of each contract.  
The contracts are included in the financial statements at September 30, 1996 
and 1995 and are recorded at values reported to the Plan by the Trustee.  
During 1996, the Plan adopted the provisions of Statement of Position 94-4, 
"Reporting of Investment Contracts Held by Health and Welfare Plans and 
Defined Contribution Pension Plans" ("SOP 94-4").  The contracts held by the 
Fixed Income Fund are deemed to be benefit responsive.  As such, at September 
30, 1996 the guaranteed income contracts are reported at contract value on the 
statement of net assets available for benefits, which approximates fair value.

The average yield and interest rates for each guaranteed income contract as of 
and for the period ended September 30, 1996 were as follows:
