TITLE TREASURER
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Lord Abbett Affiliated Fund, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of Lord Abbett
Affiliated Fund, Inc. as of April 30, 2000, the related statements of operations
and changes in net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods
presented. These financial statements and the financial highlights are the
responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned at April 30, 2000 by correspondence with the custodian and
brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other
auditing procedures. 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 and financial highlights present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lord Abbett
Affiliated Fund, Inc. at April 30, 2000, the results of its operations, the
changes in its net assets and its financial highlights for the respective
periods, presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.
