Notes to Financial Statements / August 31, 1994 (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
T. Rowe Price Tax-Exempt Money Fund (the Fund) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management
investment company.
A) Security valuation - Securities with more than 60 days remaining to
maturity are stated at fair value which is determined by using a matrix
system that establishes a value for each security based on money market
yields. Securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued
at amortized cost.
Assets and liabilities for which the above valuation procedures are
inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are stated at fair
value as determined in good faith by, or under the supervision of, the
officers of the Fund, as authorized by the Board of Directors.
B) Premiums and Discounts - Premiums on municipal securities are amortized
for both financial and tax reporting purposes. Discounts, other than
original issue, are not amortized for financial reporting purposes.
C) Other - Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment
transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses
are reported on an identified cost basis. Distributions to shareholders are
8
<PAGE>
recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain
distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.

continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of
its income. The Fund has unused realized capital loss carryforwards for
federal income tax purposes of $266,000 at February 28, 1994, which expire in

fee, computed daily and paid monthly, consisting of an Individual Fund Fee
equal to 0.10% of average daily net assets and a Group Fee. The Group Fee is
based on the combined assets of certain mutual funds sponsored by the Manager
or Rowe Price-Fleming International, Inc. (the Group). The Group Fee rate
ranges from 0.48% for the first $1 billion of assets to 0.31% for assets in
excess of $34 billion. The effective annual Group Fee rate at August 31,

Manager. TRPS provides transfer and dividend disbursing agent functions and
shareholder services for all accounts. The Manager, under a separate agreement,
