NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1996 ALLIANCE MONEY RESERVES
_______________________________________________________________________________
NOTE A: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Alliance Capital Reserves (the "Trust") is an open-end diversified investment
company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Trust consists
of two portfolios: Alliance Capital Reserves and Alliance Money Reserves (the
"Portfolio"). Each portfolio is considered to be a separate entity for
financial reporting and tax purposes. As a matter of fundamental policy, each
Portfolio pursues its objectives by maintaining a portfolio of high-quality
money market securities all of which, at the time of investment, have remaining
maturities of 397 days or less. The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies followed by the Portfolio.
1. VALUATION OF SECURITIES
Securities in which the Portfolio invests are traded primarily in the
over-the-counter market and are valued at amortized cost, under which method a
portfolio instrument is valued at cost and any premium or discount is amortized
on a constant basis to maturity.
2. TAXES
It is the Portfolio's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all
of its investment company taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable,
to its shareholders. Therefore, no provisions for federal income or excise
taxes are required.
3. DIVIDENDS
The Portfolio declares dividends daily and automatically reinvests such
dividends in additional shares at net asset value. Net realized capital gains
on investments, if any, are expected to be distributed near year end.
4. GENERAL
Interest income is accrued as earned. Security transactions are recorded on a
trade date basis. Realized gain (loss) from security transactions is recorded
on the identified cost basis.
NOTE B: ADVISORY FEE AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AN AFFILIATE OF THE ADVISER
The Portfolio pays its Adviser, Alliance Capital Management L.P., an advisory
fee at the annual rate of .50 of 1% on the first $1.25 billion of average daily
net assets; .49 of 1% on the next $.25 billion; .48 of 1% on the next $.25
billion; .47 of 1% on the next $.25 billion; .46 of 1% on the next $1 billion;
and .45 of 1% in excess of $3 billion. The Adviser has agreed to reimburse the
Portfolio to the extent that its aggregate expenses (excluding taxes,
brokerage, interest and, where permitted, extraordinary expenses) exceed 1% of
its average daily net assets for any fiscal year. No reimbursement was required
for the year ended June 30, 1996. The Portfolio compensates Alliance Fund
Services, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Adviser) for providing
personnel and facilities to perform transfer agency services for the Portfolio.
Such compensation amounted to $1,075,605 for the year ended June 30, 1996.
NOTE C: DISTRIBUTION ASSISTANCE AND ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES PLAN
Under this plan, the Portfolio pays the Adviser a distribution fee at the
annual rate of up to .25 of 1% of the average daily value of the Portfolio's
net assets. The Plan provides that the Adviser will use amounts payable under
the Plan in their entirety for (i) payments to broker-dealers and other
financial intermediaries, including the Portfolio's distributor, for
distribution assistance and payments to banks and other depository institutions
for administrative and accounting services and (ii) otherwise promoting the
sale of shares of the Portfolio. For the year ended June 30, 1996 the Portfolio
incurred fees of $4,743,763 of which $44,596 was waived. In addition, the
Portfolio reimbursed certain broker-dealers for administrative costs incurred
in connection with providing shareholder services, accounting and bookkeeping,
and legal and compliance support. For the year ended June 30, 1996 such
payments by the Portfolio amounted to $1,796,812 of which $139,000 was paid to
the Adviser.
NOTE D: INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
At June 30, 1996, the cost of portfolio securities for federal income tax
purposes was the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes. At June 30,
1996, the Portfolio had a capital loss carryforward of $1,191,934 of which
$574,618 expires in 1999, $72,812 expires in 2001, $64,655 expires in 2002 and
$479,849 expires in 2003.
