INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Administrative Committee
AFLAC Incorporated 401(k) Plan:
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of the AFLAC Incorporated 401(k) Plan (the Plan) as of December 31,
1995 and 1994, and the related statements of changes in net assets available
for plan benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based upon 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 are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
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 referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the
AFLAC Incorporated 401(k) Plan at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the
changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements of the AFLAC Incorporated 401(k) Plan taken as a whole.
The supplementary information included in Schedules 1 and 2 is presented for
the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic
financial statements but is supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure
under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Such information
has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the
basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

AFLAC INCORPORATED 401(k) PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1995 and 1994
(1) DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The AFLAC Incorporated 401(k) Plan (formerly AFLAC Incorporated 1990
401(k) Retirement Plan) was approved by the Board of Directors of AFLAC
Incorporated (the Company) on November 10, 1992, and became effective on
January 1, 1993. The Plan was formed as a result of the merger of the AFLAC
Incorporated 1991 401(k) Retirement Plan into the AFLAC Incorporated 1990
401(k) Retirement Plan. The Plan was established for the benefit of the
employees of AFLAC Incorporated and related companies, American Family Life
Assurance Company of Columbus (excluding Japan Branch employees), American
Family Life Assurance Company of New York, AFLAC Broadcast Division, AFLAC
International, Inc., and Communicorp, Inc.
The following description provides only general information.
Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete
description of the Plan's provisions.
(a) GENERAL.
Eligible employees may voluntarily participate in the Plan upon
completing one year of service and attaining the age of 21. The
Plan is subject to certain provisions of the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
The Plan is administered by a plan administrator appointed by
the Company's Board of Directors. All Plan expenses are paid
by the Company.
(b) CONTRIBUTIONS.
Contributions to the Plan are made by both participants and the
Company. Participants may contribute through payroll deductions
from 1% to 18%, subject to certain limitations, of their
aggregate compensation. The first 1% to 6% of participants'
compensation contributed may be subject to a percentage matching
contribution by the Company. For the years ended December 31,
1995 and 1994, the Company's matching contribution was 50%
of the first 6% of participants' contributions.
(c) PARTICIPANT ACCOUNTS.
An account is maintained for each participant and is credited
with participant contributions and investment earnings/losses
thereon. Contributions may be invested in one or more of the
investment funds available under the Plan at the direction of
the participant. A separate account is maintained with respect
to each participant's interest in the Company's matching
contributions. Amounts in this account are apportioned and
invested in the same manner as the participant's account.

AFLAC INCORPORATED 401(k) PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
(d) VESTING.
Participants are 100% vested in their contributions plus actual
investment earnings/losses thereon. Participants become vested
in the Company's contribution upon completing five years of
service. Employees who became participants on or before
September 29, 1990 are 100% vested in all Company contributions.
A participant's interest in the Company's contributions is also
vested upon termination either because of death or disability or
after attaining his/her early retirement date or normal
retirement age. Participants forfeit the portion of their
interest which is not vested upon termination of employment.
These forfeitures reduce the Company's matching contribution.
(e) DISTRIBUTIONS.
Participants may receive a distribution equal to the value of
their account upon death, disability, retirement, or termination
of either the participant's employment or the Plan.
Distributions may only be made in the form of a lump-sum
payment and/or AFLAC Incorporated common stock.
(f) AGREEMENTS WITH TRUSTEE.
The assets of the Plan are held in a trust maintained by
Columbus Bank and Trust Company.
(2) SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) BASIS OF PRESENTATION.
The accompanying statements of net assets and changes in net
assets have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
(b) INVESTMENTS.
Investments are stated at fair value based upon quotations
obtained from national security exchanges or the value as
determined by the trustees of money market or common trust funds.
Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date (the
date the order to buy or sell is executed). Realized gains and
losses on sale of investments are calculated based on the
difference between selling price and cost on an average cost
basis.

Notes to Financial Statements
(3) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Company by
a letter dated July 25, 1995, that the Plan and related trust are in
accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code.
Participants in the Plan are not subject to Federal income taxes on
their contributions, on amounts contributed by the employer, or on earnings
or appreciation of investments held by the Plan until withdrawn by the
participant or distributed to the participant's named beneficiary in the
event of death.
(4) PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
right to terminate the Plan at any time subject to the provisions of ERISA.
In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in
their accounts.
(5) INVESTMENT FUNDS
The following schedules show net assets available for plan benefits as
of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and changes in net assets available for plan
benefits for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 by investment fund.
