NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1994 (UNAUDITED)                       ALLIANCE GOVERNMENT RESERVES
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE A: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Alliance Government 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 Government Reserves (the "Portfolio") and Alliance
Treasury Reserves. Each portfolio is considered to be a separate entity for
financial reporting and tax purposes. The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies followed by the Fund.

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. Security gains and losses are determined 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% 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. For the six 
months ended December 31, 1994, the reimbursement amounted to $254,237. 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 $1,170,312 
for the six months ended December 31, 1994.

- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 such payments in 
their entirety for distribution assistance and promotional activities. For 
the six months ended December 31, 1994, the distribution fee amounted to
$2,614,890 of which $209,191 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 six months ended December 31, 1994, 
such payments by the Portfolio amounted to $769,306 of which $73,000 was paid 
to the Adviser.

- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE D: INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

At December 31, 1994, the cost of portfolio securities for federal income tax
purposes was the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes. At June 30,
1994, the fund had a capital loss carryforward of $385,438, of which $148,764
expires in 2001 and $236,674 expires in 2002.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1994 (UNAUDITED)                         ALLIANCE TREASURY RESERVES
- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE A: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Alliance Government 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 Government Reserves and Alliance Treasury Reserves
(the "Portfolio"). Each portfolio is considered to be a separate entity for
financial reporting and tax purposes. The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies followed by the Fund.

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. ORGANIZATION EXPENSES

The organization expenses of the Portfolio are being amortized against income 
on a straight-line basis through September, 1998.

3. 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.

4. 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.

5. GENERAL

Interest income is accrued as earned. Security transactions are recorded on a 
trade date basis. Security gains and losses are determined 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 
aggregate expenses (excluding taxes, brokerage, interest and, where 
permitted, extraordinary expenses) exceed 1% of its average daily net assets 
for any fiscal year. The Adviser also voluntarily agreed to reimburse the 
Portfolio from July 1, 1994 to July 14, 1994 for expenses exceeding .40 of 1% 
of its average daily net assets and from July 15, 1994 to December 31, 1994 
for expenses exceeding .60 of 1% of its average daily net assets. For the six 
months ended December 31, 1994, the reimbursement amounted to $200,632. 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 $67,646 for 
the six months ended December 31, 1994.

- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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 such payments in 
their entirety for distribution assistance and promotional activities. For 
the six months ended December 31, 1994, the Portfolio made no payments under 
the Plan. In addition, the Portfolio may reimburse certain broker-dealers for 
administrative costs incurred in connection with providing shareholder 
services, accounting and bookkeeping, and legal and compliance support. For 
the six months ended December 31, 1994, such payments by the Portfolio 
amounted to $57,737 of which $57,000 was paid to the Adviser.

                                                                               3

NOTE D: INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

At December 31, 1994, the cost of securities for federal income tax purposes 
was the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes. At June 30, 1994 
the Portfolio had a capital loss carryforward of $2,588 which expires in 2002.
