company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Trust consists 
of two portfolios: Alliance Capital Reserves (the "Portfolio") and Alliance 
Money Reserves. 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. It is the Portfolio's policy to take possession 
of securities as collateral under repurchase agreements and to determine on a 
daily basis that the value of such securities are sufficient to cover the value 
of the repurchase agreements.

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 annual 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 $5,068,973 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 an 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 distribution fee 
amounted to $10,256,491. In addition, the Portfolio reimbursed certain 
broker-dealers for administrative costs incurred in connection with providing 
shareholder services, accounting, bookkeeping, legal and compliance support. 
For the year ended June 30, 1996, such payments by the Portfolio amounted to 
$1,090,072 of which $162,000 was paid to the Adviser.

_______________________________________________________________________________

TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS ALLIANCE CAPITAL RESERVES PORTFOLIO

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of Alliance Capital 
Reserves Portfolio as of June 30, 1996 and the related statements of 
operations, changes in net assets, and financial highlights for the periods 
indicated in the accompanying financial statements. These financial statements 
and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Portfolio's 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 generally accepted auditing 
standards. 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 as of June 
30, 1996, by correspondence with the custodian.

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 and financial highlights referred to 
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of 
Alliance Capital Reserves Portfolio as of June 30, 1996, and the results of its 
operations, changes in its net assets, and its financial highlights for the 
periods indicated, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
