SUBACCOUNT--A division of VCA-24, the assets of which are invested in shares  of
the corresponding Portfolio of the Fund. VCA-24 currently has seven Subaccounts:
the  Bond Subaccount,  the Government Securities  Subaccount, the Conservatively
Managed Flexible Subaccount, the  Aggressively Managed Flexible Subaccount,  the
Stock  Index  Subaccount,  the Common  Stock  Subaccount and  the  Global Equity
Subaccount.

UNIT AND UNIT  VALUE--A Participant is  credited with Units  in each of  VCA-10,
VCA-11,  and the Subaccounts of  VCA-24 in which he  invests. The value of these
Units changes each day to reflect  the investment results of, and deductions  of
charges  from, VCA-10, VCA-11 and the Subaccounts of VCA-24, and the expenses of
the Fund Portfolios  in which the  assets of the  Subaccounts are invested.  The
number of Units credited to a Participant in VCA-10, VCA-11 or any Subaccount of
VCA-24  is determined  by dividing  the amount of  the contribution  made on his
behalf to  that Account  or Subaccount  by  the applicable  Unit Value  for  the
business  day on which the contribution is  received at the address shown on the
cover of this Prospectus.

VARIABLE CONTRACT ACCOUNT-10--A separate account of Prudential registered  under
the  Investment  Company Act  of 1940  as  an open-end,  diversified, management
investment company,  invested  primarily  in common  stocks  selected  with  the
objective of long-term growth.

VARIABLE  CONTRACT ACCOUNT-11--A separate account of Prudential registered under
the Investment  Company Act  of  1940 as  an open-end,  diversified,  management
investment  company,  invested in  money  market instruments  selected  with the
objective of realizing as high a level  of current income as is consistent  with
the preservation of capital and liquidity.

VARIABLE  CONTRACT ACCOUNT-24--A separate account of Prudential registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a unit investment trust, invested  through
its Subaccounts in shares of the corresponding Fund Portfolios.

                                    SUMMARY

   
Four  Group Variable Annuity  Contracts (the "Contracts")  are described in this
Prospectus. They  are offered  by The  Prudential Insurance  Company of  America
("Prudential")  for use in connection  with retirement arrangements that qualify
for federal tax benefits under Sections 401, 403(b), 408 or 457 of the  Internal
Revenue  Code  of  1986  (the  "Code"  or  "Internal  Revenue  Code")  and  with
non-qualified annuity  arrangements.  One  of the  Contracts  provides  for  the
investment  of  contributions  in The  Prudential  Variable  Contract Account-10
("VCA-10").  Another  provides  for  the  investment  of  contributions  in  The
Prudential  Variable Contract Account-11 ("VCA-11").  The third provides for the
investment of  contributions  in  one  or more  Subaccounts  of  The  Prudential
Variable   Contract  Account-24  ("VCA-24").  VCA-10,  VCA-11  and  VCA-24  (the
"Accounts")  are  separate  accounts  of  Prudential.  VCA-10  and  VCA-11   are
registered as open-end, diversified, management investment companies, and VCA-24
is  registered as a unit  investment trust, under the  Investment Company Act of
1940, as  amended. The  fourth is  a non-qualified  Contract that  provides  for
investment  of contributions in the Accounts and a fixed rate option provided by
Prudential (the "Non-Qualified Combination Contract").
    

The Contracts generally  are issued to  employers ("Contract-holders") who  make
contributions  under  them  on behalf  of  their  employees. A  person  for whom
contributions have been made and to  whom they remain credited under a  Contract
is  a "Participant."  Contributions also  may be  made for  Participants under a
companion fixed-dollar contract ("Companion  Contract"). Those contracts that  a
Contract-holder  chooses from among the  Contracts described in this Prospectus,
along with the Companion Contract, if any, make up the Contract-holder's  MEDLEY
Program ("Program").

What  follows is a summary of information  about the Contracts and about VCA-10,
VCA-11 and VCA-24.  More detailed  information may  be found  in the  referenced
portions  of  this  Prospectus,  as  well  as  in  the  Statement  of Additional
Information.

                           INTERESTS OF PARTICIPANTS
                IN VCA-10, VCA-11 AND THE SUBACCOUNTS OF VCA-24

   
If the  Program  made available  to  a  Participant includes  all  the  variable
investment  options described in this Prospectus,  the Participant may choose to
have contributions made on  his behalf invested  in any one  or more of  VCA-10,
VCA-11  and the  Subaccounts of  VCA-24. The Participant  may from  time to time
change how those contributions are allocated, usually by notifying Prudential at
the address shown on the cover of this Prospectus. An Accumulation Account  will
be  established in the name of the Participant in each of VCA-10, VCA-11 and the
Subaccounts of  VCA-24  in  which  the  Participant  invests.  The  value  of  a
Participant's  Accumulation  Account,  expressed  in  Units  of  the  Account or
Subaccount in  which the  investment  is made,  will  vary with  the  investment
results  of that  Account or  Subaccount. See  "The Accumulation  Period," pages
20-28.
    

                     INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES OF THE ACCOUNTS

VCA-10 will invest  primarily in common  stocks selected with  the objective  of
long-term  growth,  taking into  account both  income and  capital appreciation.
Investments will  be made  according  to the  standards  of a  prudent  investor
concerned primarily with preserving the real value of his capital by achieving a
rate  of growth in  the value of  his investments commensurate  with the rate of
growth in  the economy  and  the prevailing  rate  of inflation.  See  "VCA-10's
investment objective and investment policy," pages 12-13.

   
VCA-11  will invest in money market instruments payable in U.S. dollars selected
with the  objective  of realizing  as  high a  level  of current  income  as  is
consistent  with  the  preservation  of  capital  and  liquidity.  See "VCA-11's
investment objective and investment policy," pages 13-16.
    

   
Each Subaccount of  VCA-24 will  invest in  the corresponding  Portfolio of  the
Fund.  The  Bond  Subaccount  invests  in  the  Bond  Portfolio,  the Government
Securities Subaccount in the Government Securities Portfolio, the Conservatively
Managed Flexible Subaccount  in the Conservatively  Managed Flexible  Portfolio,
the  Aggressively  Managed  Flexible  Subaccount  in  the  Aggressively  Managed
Flexible Portfolio, the Stock Index Subaccount in the Stock Index Portfolio, the
Common Stock Subaccount  in the  Common Stock  Portfolio and  the Global  Equity
Subaccount  in  the Global  Equity  Portfolio. Additional  Subaccounts  and Fund
Portfolios may be available in the future. The investment objectives of each  of
these  seven  Fund  Portfolios  (see  "The  Investment  Objectives  of  the Fund
Portfolios," page  16)  and  other information  concerning  the  management  and
operation  of the Fund are contained in the accompanying Fund Prospectus and the
Fund's Statement of Additional Information.
    

There is no  assurance that the  investment objective of  VCA-10, VCA-11 or  any
Fund  Portfolio will  be attained.  Nor is there  any guarantee  that the amount
available to a Participant will equal or exceed the total contributions made  on
his behalf. The value of the investments held in VCA-10, VCA-11 and in each Fund
Portfolio fluctuates daily and is subject to the risks of both changing economic
conditions  and the selection of investments  necessary to meet the Account's or
Portfolio's investment objective.

                  INVESTMENT MANAGER AND PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER

Prudential is  the  investment manager  of  VCA-10,  VCA-11 and  the  Fund,  and
Prudential  Retirement Services, Inc. (PRSI), a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary
of Prudential,  is  the  principal  underwriter of  the  Contracts  pursuant  to
agreements  between  PRSI  and  each of  VCA-10  and  VCA-11  (collectively, the
"Distribution Agreements"). See  "The Prudential," page  11, "Management,"  page
17, "The Fund," pages 11-12, and the accompanying Fund prospectus.

                            INVESTMENT REQUIREMENTS

   
Contributions  to the  Program made on  behalf of a  Participant through payroll
deduction arrangements or  similar agreements with  the Contract-holder must  be
made  at  a  rate  of  at  least $200  during  any  12-month  period.  Any other
contribution to the Program must be  at least $500, except for contributions  to
an  Individual Retirement Annuity for a  non-working spouse under Section 408 of
the Code (or working spouse who elects  to be treated as a non-working  spouse),
which  must  be  at least  $250.  All  contributions may  be  divided  among the
Contracts and Companion Contract(s) that comprise the Contract-holder's Program.
See "The Accumulation  Period," pages 20-28.  Checks should be  made payable  to
Prudential.
    

                                    CHARGES

   
No sales charge is deducted from any contribution when made. However, a deferred
sales  charge to  cover sales  expenses may be  assessed when  a contribution is
withdrawn from VCA-10, VCA-11  or any Subaccount of  VCA-24. The deferred  sales
charge  is imposed only upon contributions withdrawn by a Participant during the
first 15 years  of his participation  in a Program.  The maximum deferred  sales
charge of seven percent (7%) applies to contributions withdrawn during the first
two  years  that  a  Participant  is  in a  Program.  The  charge  is  lower for
contributions withdrawn in subsequent years.  Withdrawals are deemed to be  made
up  of contributions until  all of a Participant's  contributions to the Account
have been  withdrawn. No  deferred sales  charge is  imposed upon  contributions
withdrawn  to purchase an annuity under a  Contract, to provide a death benefit,
pursuant to  a systematic  withdrawal plan,  to provide  a minimum  distribution
payment,  or  in  cases  of  financial  hardship  or  disability  retirement  as
determined pursuant  to provisions  of  the employer's  retirement  arrangement.
Further, for all plans other than IRAs, no deferred sales charge is imposed upon
contributions  withdrawn due to resignation or  retirement by the Participant or
termination  of   the  Participant   by   the  Contract-holder.   Transfers   of
contributions among the Accounts, the Subaccounts, the fixed rate option and the
Companion  Contract(s)  are treated  as  withdrawals of  contributions  from the
Account, Subaccount,  fixed rate  option or  Companion Contract  from which  the
transfer  is made, but no deferred sales  charge is imposed upon them. They are,
however, treated as contributions to the Account, Subaccount, fixed rate  option
or  Companion  Contract  to  which  the transfer  is  made  for  the  purpose of
determining the  sales charge,  if any,  upon subsequent  withdrawals from  that
Account,  Subaccount,  fixed rate  option or  Companion Contract.  See "Deferred
Sales Charge," page 18, for further explanation and illustration.
    

   
An annual account  charge may  be made against  each Participant's  Accumulation
Accounts  under a Program. This charge will not exceed $20 for any calendar year
and may be divided  among the Participant's  Accumulation Accounts. See  "Annual
Account Charge," page 19.
    

Prudential  intends to decrease the deferred sales or annual account charges, or
both, applicable to a particular  Contract if sales and administrative  expenses
associated  with that Contract  are expected to  be lower, or  if fewer sales or
administrative services  are expected  to  be required  in connection  with  the
Contract. See "Modification of Charges," page 19.

Prudential  makes a daily charge  equal to an effective  annual rate of 1.00% of
the net value  of the assets  in VCA-10 and  VCA-11. This charge  is made up  of
0.25%  (  1/4 of  1%)  for investment  management  and 0.75%  (  3/4 of  1%) for
administrative expenses.  Prudential makes  a  daily charge  for  administrative
expenses  equal to an effective  annual rate of 0.75% of  the net asset value of
each  Subaccount  of  VCA-24.  See  "Charge  for  Administrative  Expenses   and
Investment Management Services," page 19.

A  daily charge  against assets for  investment management with  respect to each
Fund Portfolio in which a Subaccount invests is made separately at an  effective
annual  rate of 0.35% (35/100 of 1%) of  the net asset value of the Fund's Stock
Index Portfolio, 0.40% (40/100 of 1%) of the net asset value of the Fund's  Bond
Portfolio  and Government Securities Portfolio, 0.45%  (45/100 of 1%) of the net
asset value of the Fund's  Common Stock Portfolio, 0.55%  (55/100 of 1%) of  the
net  asset value of the Conservatively Managed Flexible Portfolio, 0.60% (60/100
of 1%) of the  net asset value of  the Aggressively Managed Flexible  Portfolio,
and  0.75% (75/100 of 1%) of the net asset value of the Global Equity Portfolio.
The Fund's Portfolios also bear the  costs of Portfolio transactions, legal  and
accounting  expenses, shareholder  services, and  custodial and  transfer agency
fees. Further detail is provided in the accompanying prospectus for the Fund and
in its Statement of Additional Information.

   
The deferred sales charge,  the annual account charge,  and the charges  against
assets for administrative expenses may be changed by Prudential. See "Changes in
the Contracts," page 30.

                           WITHDRAWALS AND TRANSFERS

   
Unless restricted by the retirement arrangement under which he is covered, or by
the  withdrawal restrictions imposed by federal  tax law on tax-deferred annuity
contracts subject to  Section 403(b) of  the Code and  on interests in  deferred
compensation plans under Section 457 of the Code, a Participant may withdraw, at
any  time, all or a part of his Accumulation Account in VCA-10, or VCA-11 or any
Subaccount of VCA-24. See "Withdrawal  (Redemption) of Contributions," page  21.
Withdrawals  may be subject  to tax under the  Internal Revenue Code, including,
under certain circumstances,  a 10%  penalty tax on  premature withdrawals.  See
"Federal  Tax Status," page  31. In addition,  all or a  part of a Participant's
Accumulation Account may be transferred among Accounts, Subaccounts, fixed  rate
option  and Companion Contract  without charge or  tax liability. Prudential may
limit the frequency  of transfers and  may under certain  Contracts prohibit  or
restrict  transfers  from  the  Companion Contract  or  fixed  rate  option into
non-equity investment options that are defined in the Contract(s) as "competing"
with the Companion Contract or the fixed rate option with respect to  investment
characteristics. See "Transfer Payments," page 25.
    

                             CONTACTING PRUDENTIAL

   
All  written requests, notices, and transfer  requests required by the Contracts
(other than withdrawal  requests and death  benefit claims), should  be sent  to
Prudential  at the address shown on the  cover of this Prospectus. Any questions
or inquiries may be sent to Prudential at that address or may be communicated by
telephone at 1-800-458-6333.  All withdrawal  requests or  death benefit  claims
relating  to a Participant's interest in VCA-10,  VCA-11 and VCA-24 must be sent
to Prudential  by  one  of the  following  three  means: 1)  By  U.S.  mail  to:
Prudential  Defined Contribution Services, P.O. Box 5410, Scranton, Pennsylvania
18505-5410; 2) Delivery service other than the U.S. mail (e.g., Federal Express,
etc.)  sent  to  our  office  at  the  following  address:  Prudential   Defined
Contribution Services, 30 Scranton Office Park, Moosic, Pennsylvania 18507-1789;
or  3)  Fax  to  Prudential  Defined  Contribution  Services,  Attention: Client
Payments at: (717) 340-4328. A withdrawal request or death benefit claim will be
deemed received in  good order  by Prudential  as of  the end  of the  valuation
period  within  which all  the properly  completed  forms and  other information
required by Prudential to pay such a request or claim (e.g., due proof of death)
are received  as specified  above.  Receipt of  a  withdrawal request  or  death
benefit claim in good order is required by Prudential to process the transaction
in  the  manner  explained on  pages  21-25  of this  prospectus.  Under certain
Contracts, the Contract-holder or a third party acting on their behalf  provides
record-keeping  services that  would otherwise  be performed  by Prudential. See
"Modified Procedures," page 28.

    The  above table does not reflect the  annual account charge, which does not
    affect  the  Unit  Value  of  VCA-10.  This  charge  is  made  by   reducing
    Participants' accounts by a number of Units equal in value to the charge.

    While  both  income and  capital changes  are  shown above,  the distinction
    between these sources of change in VCA-10 is not particularly significant to
    Participants. There  is  no  distinction between  income  and  realized  and
    unrealized  gains and losses on investments in determining the amount of the
    Participant's benefits and the taxes payable by the Participant on them.

                                  INTRODUCTION

   
The Contracts described  in this Prospectus  are offered for  use in  connection
with  various retirement arrangements  entitled to federal  income tax benefits.
These are (a) individual retirement annuities ("IRAs") subject to Section 408 of
the Code, (b) tax-deferred annuities subject to Section 403(b) of the Code,  for
use  by  public  schools  and  certain  tax-exempt  organizations,  (c) eligible
deferred compensation plans subject to Section  457 of the Code and (d)  pension
and profit sharing plans qualified under Section 401 of the Code including those
plans that are established by self-employed individuals for themselves and their
employees.  A summary of the tax  benefits available to persons participating in
these arrangements  and  their  beneficiaries is  provided  under  "Federal  Tax
Status,"  page 31. The  Contracts described in this  Prospectus are also offered
for use in connection with non-qualified annuity arrangements.
    

When  the  Program  made  available  to  a  Participant  includes  all  variable
investment  options, the Participant  may have contributions  made on his behalf
invested in one or more of VCA-10,  VCA-11, and the Subaccounts of VCA-24.  Some
Programs,  however, may offer only some  of the variable investment options, and
accordingly a Participant in those Programs may only have contributions made  on
their  behalf to the available Accounts and Subaccounts. An Accumulation Account
will be established for a Participant in each Account or Subaccount in which  he
invests.  The value of a Participant's Accumulation Account in VCA-10, VCA-11 or
any particular Subaccount  of VCA-24 will  vary with the  investment results  in
VCA-10,   VCA-11  or  any  particular  Subaccount  of  VCA-24,  respectively.  A
Participant may elect to have the value of his Accumulation Accounts distributed
to him in one sum, applied to  the purchase of a fixed-dollar annuity, or  both.
The  Contracts do not provide for annuity payments that vary with the investment
results of VCA-10, VCA-11 or any Subaccount of VCA-24.

                                 THE PRUDENTIAL

   
Prudential is a  mutual life insurance  company incorporated in  1873 under  the
laws  of the State of New Jersey.  Its corporate office is located at Prudential
Plaza,
Newark, New  Jersey. It  has been  investing for  pension funds  since 1928.  At
December 31, 1994, it managed over $105 billion of group pension fund assets.
    

Prudential  serves as the investment manager for VCA-10, VCA-11 and the Fund and
is registered as  an investment  adviser under  the Investment  Advisers Act  of
1940.  PRSI  performs certain  sales  and distribution  functions  regarding the
Contracts pursuant to  agreements between  PRSI and  each of  VCA-10 and  VCA-11
(collectively,  the  "Distribution  Agreements") and  may  be deemed  to  be the
Contracts' "principal underwriter" under the Investment Company Act of 1940,  as
amended  (the  "1940 Act").  PRSI  is registered  as  a broker-dealer  under the
Securities  Exchange   Act  of   1934.  Prudential   is  responsible   for   the
administrative  and recordkeeping  functions of  VCA-10, VCA-11,  VCA-24 and the
Fund. Prudential's financial  statements appear in  the Statement of  Additional
Information  and should be considered only  as bearing upon Prudential's ability
to meet its obligations under the Contracts.

                                  THE ACCOUNTS

Prudential established VCA-10 and VCA-11 on  March 1, 1982, and VCA-24 on  April
29,  1987, under  the insurance laws  of the  State of New  Jersey. Each Account
meets the definition of a "separate account" under the federal securities  laws.
The  assets in  the Accounts  are the  property of  Prudential, but  are legally
segregated from  all other  assets of  Prudential and  may not  be charged  with
liabilities arising out of any of Prudential's other business. All income, gains
and  losses, whether or not realized, from  assets allocated to the Accounts are
credited to or  charged against  the Accounts  without regard  to other  income,
gains,  or losses of Prudential. The assets in the Accounts will always be equal
or greater  in value  than  Prudential's liabilities  under the  Contracts.  The
fixed-dollar  annuities available under the Contracts are not funded through the
Accounts. The  obligations arising  under the  Contracts are  general  corporate
obligations of Prudential.

VCA-10,  VCA-11 and the Fund are registered as open-end, diversified, management
investment companies, and VCA-24 as a unit investment trust, with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the 1940 Act. This registration
does not  involve  supervision  by  the  Commission  of  Prudential  or  of  the
management or investment practices of the Accounts or the Fund.

                                    THE FUND

   
The  Fund  is  registered  under  the  1940  Act  as  an  open-end, diversified,
management investment company. Seven of the Portfolios of the Fund are available
for the  investment of  contributions made  under the  Contracts funded  through
VCA-24.  Investments in a Portfolio are made  by purchasing shares of the series
of Fund capital stock  representing interests in that  Portfolio. Shares in  the
Fund  are  currently  sold  at  their  net  asset  value  to  separate  accounts
established by Prudential and  certain other insurers  that offer variable  life
insurance contracts and variable annuity contracts.
    

As noted, shares of the Fund are sold to both variable life and variable annuity
separate  accounts.  It  is  conceivable  that  in  the  future  it  may  become
disadvantageous for both  variable life and  variable annuity contract  separate
accounts to invest in the same underlying fund. Although Prudential, Pruco Life,
Pruco  Life  Insurance Company  of New  Jersey,  and the  Fund do  not currently
foresee any such disadvantage, the Fund's Board of

                                       11
<PAGE>
Directors intends to monitor events in  order to identify any material  conflict
between  variable annuity contract owners and  variable life contract owners and
to determine what action, if any, should be taken in response thereto.  Material
conflicts  could result from such things as: (1) changes in state insurance law;
(2) changes in federal income tax law; (3) changes in the investment  management
of  any Portfolio  of the Fund;  or (4) differences  between voting instructions
given by variable annuity  contract owners and Participants  and those given  by
variable life insurance contract owners.

                              INVESTMENT PRACTICES

A  Participant should  review the  investment objectives  and policies described
below  for  VCA-10,  VCA-11  and  each  Fund  Portfolio  corresponding  to  each
Subaccount  of VCA-24  before deciding how  to have  his contributions invested.
VCA-10, VCA-11  and  the  Fund  Portfolios have  for  the  most  part  different
investment  objectives and policies. These differences will affect the return on
a Participant's investment  and the  market and  financial risks  to which  that
investment will be exposed. There is no guarantee that the objectives of VCA-10,
VCA-11 or any Fund Portfolio will be met.

VCA-10'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

The  investment objective of VCA-10 is  the long-term appreciation of the assets
held in the Account. Since no federal  income tax will be payable upon  dividend
income  or realized capital gains, consideration will be given to both potential
income and  capital gains  opportunities in  selecting investments.  Investments
will be made primarily in established corporations according to the standards of
a  prudent investor  concerned primarily with  preserving the real  value of his
capital by  achieving  a  rate  of  growth  in  the  value  of  his  investments
commensurate  with the rate of growth in  the economy and the prevailing rate of
inflation. This objective  is a  fundamental investment  policy and  may not  be
changed  without the approval of a majority vote of persons having voting rights
in respect of the Account. Certain investment restrictions are applicable;  they
are set forth in the Statement of Additional Information.

VCA-10'S INVESTMENT POLICY

The  investment policies of VCA-10  set forth below are  adopted in an effort to
achieve the  investment  objective  and  are  not  fundamental.  Therefore,  the
investment  policies of VCA-10 may be changed by the Account's Committee without
participant approval.

The assets held in VCA-10 will  be invested in a portfolio consisting  primarily
(that is, at least 85%) of common stocks of established corporations and related
options  and  futures. Not  more  than 15%  of such  assets  may be  invested in
preferred stocks, bonds, debentures, notes, and other evidences of  indebtedness
of established corporations or of governmental entities which are of a character
customarily  acquired  by  institutional  investors,  whether  or  not  publicly
distributed. These may or  may not be convertible  into stock or accompanied  by
warrants  or rights to acquire stock. There may be times, however, when economic
conditions or general  levels of  common stock  prices are  such that  continued
investment  primarily in common stocks will be  deemed not to be the best method
of attaining the investment  objective of the Account.  At such times, a  larger
than  usual portion of the  assets held in VCA-10 may  be invested in cash, cash
equivalents, preferred stocks and evidences  of indebtedness. In addition,  cash
and  high  grade,  short-term  debt  securities  (including  securities acquired
through short-term  repurchase  transactions) of  the  kind held  in  VCA-11  as
described  below may be held at times in  order to make possible the orderly and
flexible programming of investments.

OPTIONS ON EQUITY SECURITIES. VCA-10 may purchase and write (i.e., sell) put and
call options  on  equity  securities  that are  traded  on  national  securities
exchanges  or that are listed on  the National Association of Securities Dealers
Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ").  A call option  is a short-term  contract
pursuant to which the purchaser or holder, in return for a premium paid, has the
right  to buy the equity security underlying  the option at a specified exercise
price (the strike price) at any time  during the term of the option. The  writer
of  the call option, who receives the premium, has the obligation, upon exercise
of the option, to deliver the underlying equity security against payment of  the
strike  price. A put option  is a similar contract  which gives the purchaser or
holder, in  return  for a  premium,  the right  to  sell the  underlying  equity
security at a specified exercise price (the strike price) during the term of the
option.  The writer of the put, who  receives the premium, has the obligation to
buy the underlying  equity security  at the strike  price upon  exercise by  the
holder of the put.

VCA-10  will write options  on stocks only  if they are  covered. In general, an
option is covered  if the writer  has segregated assets  sufficient to meet  the
writer's  obligation  should  the  purchaser  exercise  the  option.  VCA-10 may
purchase "protective  puts,"  I.E., put  options  acquired for  the  purpose  of
protecting a portfolio security from a decline in market value, and may purchase
call options for hedging and investment purposes.

VCA-10  may terminate its obligation  as the writer of  an option by effecting a
"closing purchase transaction," I.E., buying an option of the same series as the
option previously written.  Similarly, VCA-10  may liquidate its  position as  a
holder  of an option  by exercising the  option or by  effecting a "closing sale
transaction," I.E.,  selling  an  option  of  the  same  series  as  the  option
previously purchased.

VCA-10's  use  of options  on equity  securities is  subject to  certain special
risks, in addition to the risk that  the market value of the security will  move
adversely to

                                       12
<PAGE>
VCA-10's option position. Further information about options on equity securities
and  the  risks  associated with  their  use  is provided  in  the  Statement of
Additional Information.

OPTIONS ON STOCK INDICES. VCA-10 may purchase and sell (I.E. write) put and call
options on stock indices  traded on national securities  exchanges or listed  on
NASDAQ.  Options on stock indices  are similar to options  on stock except that,
rather than the right to take or make delivery of stock at a specified price, an
option on a stock index gives the holder the right to receive, upon exercise  of
the option, an amount of cash if the closing level of the stock index upon which
the  option is based is greater than in the case of a call, or less than, in the
case of a put, the strike price of  the option. This amount of cash is equal  to
such  difference between the closing price of  the index and the strike price of
the option  times a  specified multiple  (the "multiplier").  If the  option  is
exercised,  the writer is obligated, in return for the premium received, to make
delivery of this amount. Unlike stock options, all settlements are in cash,  and
gain  or loss depends on price movements in  the stock market generally (or in a
particular industry or  segment of the  market) rather than  price movements  in
individual stocks.

VCA-10  will write options on stock indices only if they are covered. VCA-10 may
purchase put  and call  options for  hedging and  investment purposes,  and  may
effect closing sale and purchase transactions.

Further  detail about options on stock indices  is set forth in the Statement of
Additional Information.

STOCK INDEX FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS  ON FUTURES CONTRACTS. VCA-10 may,  to
the  extent  permitted  by  applicable insurance  law  and  federal regulations,
attempt to  reduce the  risk of  investment in  equity securities  by hedging  a
portion of its equity portfolio through the use of stock index futures traded on
a commodities exchange or board of trade or options on such futures contracts. A
stock  index futures contract is an agreement  in which the seller (I.E. writer)
of the contract  agrees to deliver  to the buyer  an amount of  cash equal to  a
specific  dollar amount  times the  difference between  the value  of a specific
stock index at the close of the last  trading day of the contract and the  price
at  which  the agreement  is made.  An option  on a  futures contract  gives the
purchaser or holder the right, but not the obligation, to assume a position in a
futures contract (a long position if the  option is a call and a short  position
if  the option  is a put)  at a  specified price at  any time  during the option
exercise period. The writer of the option is required upon exercise to assume an
offsetting futures position. Further detail about stock index futures  contracts
and options thereon is contained in the Statement of Additional Information.

WHEN-ISSUED  AND DELAYED DELIVERY SECURITIES. VCA-10  may, from time to time and
in the ordinary course of business, purchase equity securities on a  when-issued
or  delayed delivery basis, that is, delivery and payment can take place a month
or more after the date of the  transaction. VCA-10 will limit such purchases  to
those  in which the date  for delivery and payment falls  within 120 days of the
date of  the  commitment. VCA-10  will  make commitments  for  such  when-issued
transactions  only  with the  intention  of actually  acquiring  the securities.
VCA-10's custodian will maintain, in  a separate account, cash, U.S.  Government
securities  or other liquid high-grade debt  obligations having a value equal to
or greater than such commitments. If VCA-10  chooses to dispose of the right  to
acquire  a when-issued security prior to its  acquisition, it could, as with the
disposition of any other portfolio security, incur a gain or loss due to  market
fluctuations.

SHORT  SALES  AGAINST THE  BOX. VCA-10  may  make short  sales of  securities or
maintain a short position, provided that at  all times when a short position  is
open  VCA-10 owns an  equal amount of such  securities or securities convertible
into or exchangeable, with or without payment of any further consideration,  for
an  equal amount  of the securities  of the  same issuer as  the securities sold
short (a "short sale against the box"); provided, that if further  consideration
is  required  in  connection  with  the conversion  or  exchange,  cash  or U.S.
Government securities in an amount equal to such consideration must be put in  a
segregated account.

VCA-11'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

The  investment objective of VCA-11 is to seek as high a level of current income
as is consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity. This  objective
is  a fundamental investment policy and may  not be changed without the approval
of a majority vote of  persons having voting rights  in respect of the  Account.
Certain  investment  restrictions  are applicable;  they  are set  forth  in the
Statement of Additional Information.

VCA-11'S INVESTMENT POLICY

The investment policies of VCA-11  set forth below are  adopted in an effort  to
achieve  the  investment  objectives  and are  not  fundamental.  Therefore, the
investment policies of VCA-11 may be changed by the Account's Committee  without
participant approval.

The  Account seeks to achieve its objective  by investing in the following money
market instruments payable in U.S. dollars:

    1. U.S. Treasury Bills  and other  obligations issued or  guaranteed by  the
       U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities. See "Appendix."

    2. Obligations  (including certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances)
       of any commercial  bank, savings  bank and savings  and loan  association
       organized  under the laws of  the United States or  any state thereof and
       any commercial  bank organized  under  the laws  of any  foreign  nation,
       provided that such bank or association

                                       13
<PAGE>
       has, at the time of the Account's investment, total assets of at least $1
       billion  or the equivalent.  The term "certificates  of deposit" includes
       both Eurodollar certificates of deposit,  for which there is generally  a
       market,  and Eurodollar time deposits, for which there is generally not a
       market. "Eurodollars" are dollars deposited in foreign banks and  foreign
       branches of United States banks outside the United States.

       An  investment in  Eurodollar instruments  and in  instruments of foreign
       issuers generally involves risks that are different in some respects from
       an investment in debt obligations  of domestic issuers, including  future
       political  and  economic  developments that  might  adversely  affect the
       payment of principal and interest on such instruments. In addition, there
       may be less publicly  available information about  a foreign issuer  than
       about  a domestic issuer, and such foreign  issuers may not be subject to
       the same accounting, auditing and financial standards and requirements as
       domestic issuers. Finally, in the  event of default, judgments against  a
       foreign issuer might be difficult to obtain or enforce. See "Appendix."
    3. Commercial  paper, variable amount demand  master notes, bills, notes and
       other obligations  issued  by  a  U.S.  or  foreign  company,  a  foreign
       government,  its political  subdivisions, agencies  or instrumentalities,
       maturing in 397 days  or less, denominated in  U.S. dollars, and, at  the
       date of investment present minimal credit risk and which are of "eligible
       quality",   as  determined  by  VCA-11's  investment  manager  under  the
       supervision of the  Committee members.  "Eligible quality,"  means (i)  a
       security (or issuer) rated in one of the two highest rating categories by
       at  least  two  nationally  recognized  statistical  rating organizations
       assigning a rating to the security or issuer (or, if only one such rating
       organization assigned  a rating,  that rating  organization) or  (ii)  an
       unrated  security  deemed of  comparable  quality by  VCA-11's investment
       manager under the supervision of the Committee members. See "Appendix."

       VCA-11 also  may  purchase  instruments  of  the  types  described  above
       together with the right to resell the instruments at an agreed-upon price
       or  yield within  a specified  period prior to  the maturity  date of the
       instruments. Such a right to resell is commonly known as a "put" and  the
       aggregate price that VCA-11 pays for instruments with a put may be higher
       than the price that otherwise would be paid for the instruments.

    4. Commercial   paper,  variable   amount  demand  master   notes  or  other
       obligations which  are guaranteed  or  supported by  a letter  of  credit
       issued by a bank, provided such bank (including a foreign bank) meets the
       requirements set forth in paragraph (2) above. Commercial paper, variable
       amount  demand master notes  or other fixed  income obligations which are
       guaranteed or insured by an  insurance company or other non-bank  entity,
       provided  such insurance  company or  other non-bank  entity represents a
       credit of high quality, as determined by the Account's Portfolio  Manager
       under  the supervision of  the VCA-11 Committee.  Although the commercial
       paper issuer may  have a record  of less than  three years of  continuous
       operation,  the investment  along with the  letter of credit  will not be
       considered as one of an issuer with a record of less than three years  of
       continuous  operation unless the supporting bank or financial institution
       has a record of less than three years of continuous operation.

   
    5. "Floating rate" and  "variable rate" obligations,  the interest rates  on
       which   fluctuate  generally  with  changes  in  market  interest  rates.
       Investments in floating  rate or variable  rate securities normally  will
       involve  securities which provide that  the rate of interest  is set as a
       spread to a designated base rate,  such as rates on Treasury bills,  and,
       in some cases, that the purchaser can demand payment of the obligation at
       specified  intervals or after a specified  notice period (in each case of
       less than one  year) at par  plus accrued interest,  which amount may  be
       more  or less  than the  amount paid  for them.  Variable rate securities
       provide for a specified periodic  adjustment in the interest rate,  while
       floating  rate securities  have an  interest rate  which changes whenever
       there is a change in the designated base interest rate.
    

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS.  When VCA-11  purchases money  market securities  of  the
types described above, it may on occasion enter into a repurchase agreement with
the  seller  wherein the  seller  and VCA-11  agree  at the  time  of sale  to a
repurchase of the security at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The  period
of  maturity is usually quite short, possibly  overnight or a few days, although
it may extend  over a number  of months. The  resale price is  in excess of  the
purchase  price, reflecting an agreed-upon market rate of interest effective for
the period of time the Account's money  is invested in the security, and is  not
related  to the coupon rate of the purchased security. Repurchase agreements may
be considered loans of money to the seller of the underlying security, which are
collateralized by  the securities  underlying the  repurchase agreement.  VCA-11
will  not  enter  into  repurchase agreements  unless  the  agreement  is 'fully
collateralized,' I.E., the  value of the  securities is, and  during the  entire
term of the agreement

                                       14
<PAGE>
remains,  at least equal to the amount of the 'loan' including accrued interest.
VCA-11 will take possession of the securities underlying the agreement and  will
value  them daily to assure that this condition is met. The VCA-11 Committee has
adopted standards  for the  parties  with whom  it  will enter  into  repurchase
agreements which it believes are reasonably designed to assure that such a party
presents  no  serious  risk of  becoming  involved in  bankruptcy  or insolvency
proceedings within the time frame  contemplated by the repurchase agreement.  In
the  event that a seller defaults on  a repurchase agreement, VCA-11 may incur a
loss in the market value of the collateral as well as disposition costs; and, if
a party  with  whom VCA-11  had  entered  into a  repurchase  agreement  becomes
insolvent,  VCA-11's  ability to  realize on  the collateral  may be  limited or
delayed and a  loss may be  incurred if the  collateral securing the  repurchase
agreement declines in value during the insolvency proceedings.

VCA-11  will  not  enter  into  repurchase  agreements  with  Prudential  or its
affiliates, including Prudential Securities  Incorporated. This will not  affect
the  Account's ability  to maximize  its opportunities  to engage  in repurchase
agreements.

VCA-11 may not invest more  than 10% of its  net assets in illiquid  securities,
including  securities that are  illiquid by virtue  of the absence  of a readily
available market or legal or  contractual restrictions on resale and  repurchase
agreements which have a maturity of longer than seven days. Securities that have
legal  or contractual restrictions on resale but have a readily available market
are not deemed illiquid for purposes of this limitation. The investment  manager
will  monitor  the  liquidity  of  such  restricted  securities  subject  to the
supervision of  the  committee members.  In  reaching liquidity  decisions,  the
investment  manager will  consider, INTER ALIA,  the following  factors: (1) the
frequency of  trades and  quotes for  the security;  (2) the  number of  dealers
wishing  to purchase  or sell  the security  and the  number of  other potential
purchasers; (3) dealer undertakings to make a market in the security and (4) the
nature of the security and the nature of the marketplace trades (e.g., the  time
needed  to dispose  of the  security, the  method of  soliciting offers  and the
mechanics of the transfers). Repurchase agreements subject to demand are  deemed
to have a maturity equal to the notice period.

WHEN-ISSUED  AND DELAYED DELIVERY SECURITIES. From time to time, in the ordinary
course of business, VCA-11 may purchase  securities on a when-issued or  delayed
delivery  basis--i.e., delivery and payment can take place a month or more after
the date of the transaction. The purchase price and the interest rate payable on
the securities are fixed  on the transaction date.  The securities so  purchased
are  subject to market fluctuation, and no interest accrues to the Account until
delivery and payment take place. At the time the Account makes the commitment to
purchase securities on a when-issued or  delayed delivery basis, it will  record
the  transaction and thereafter reflect the  value, each day, of such securities
in determining  its net  asset  value. VCA-11  will  make commitments  for  such
when-issued  transactions  only with  the  intention of  actually  acquiring the
securities and, to  facilitate such acquisitions,  the Account's custodian  bank
will  maintain, in a  separate account of VCA-11,  portfolio securities having a
value equal to or greater than such commitments. On the delivery dates for  such
transactions,  VCA-11 will meet its obligations  from maturities or sales of the
securities held in the separate account and/or from then-available cash flow. If
VCA-11 chooses to dispose of the  right to acquire a when-issued security  prior
to  its acquisition, it  could, as with  the disposition of  any other portfolio
obligation, incur a gain or loss due to market fluctuation.

No when-issued commitments will be  made if, as a result,  more than 15% of  the
Account's net assets would be committed.

Generally,  VCA-11 will not engage in portfolio  trading but may do so from time
to time  to enhance  current return.  In any  event, because  of the  short-term
character  of the  investments held  in the  Account, the  portfolio turnover is
expected to be high.

The VCA-11  Committee has  adopted  the following  additional policies  for  the
Account  to conform  to recent  amendments to  an SEC  rule applicable  to money
market funds, like  VCA-11: (1) VCA-11  will only purchase  securities that  are
United States dollar-denominated "eligible securities" (see "Appendix") that the
VCA-11  Committee has determined  present minimal credit  risks; (2) VCA-11 will
not invest  more than  5% of  its assets  in the  securities of  any one  issuer
(except  U.S. Government  obligations); however, the  Account may  exceed the 5%
limit with  respect to  the "first  tier" securities  (see "Appendix"),  of  one
issuer  at a time, for up to three business days after the purchase is made; (3)
VCA-11 will  not invest  more  than 5%  of its  total  assets in  "second  tier"
securities (see "Appendix") nor more than the greater of one million dollars and
1%  of its assets  in the "second tier"  securities of any one  issuer; (4) If a
"first tier"  security  held  by  VCA-11  ceases to  be  so  classified,  or  if
Prudential  becomes  aware  that  any "NRSRO"  (see  "Appendix")  has  rated any
security in the Account below the  NRSRO's second highest rating, the  Committee
will  reassess promptly whether  the security presents  minimal credit risks and
shall cause the Account to  take such action as  the Committee determines is  in
the best interests of VCA-11 and its Participants; (5) In the event of a default
with  respect to a security held by VCA-11, or if a security held in the Account
ceases to  be an  "eligible  security," or  if it  has  been determined  that  a
security  owned by VCA-11  no longer presents minimal  credit risks, VCA-11 will
sell the security as soon as  practicable unless the Committee makes a  specific
finding  that such action would not be in  the best interest of the Account; and
(6) VCA-11's dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity will be no more than  90
days,  and the Account will not acquire any instrument with a remaining maturity

                                       15
<PAGE>
greater than  397  calendar  days.  The VCA-11  Committee  has  adopted  written
procedures  delegating to  the investment  manager under  certain guidelines the
responsibility to make several of the above-described determinations,  including
certain credit quality determinations.

THE INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES OF THE FUND PORTFOLIOS

The  investment objectives of the seven  Fund Portfolios currently available for
investment through VCA-24 under the Contracts are:

BOND PORTFOLIO. A  high level  of income over  the longer  term while  providing
reasonable  safety of capital through investment primarily in readily marketable
intermediate and  long-term  fixed  income securities  that  provide  attractive
yields but do not involve substantial risk of loss of capital through default.

GOVERNMENT  SECURITIES PORTFOLIO.  A high level  of income over  the longer term
consistent with the preservation of capital through investment primarily in U.S.
Government  securities,  including  intermediate  and  long-term  U.S.  Treasury
securities  and  debt obligations  issued  by agencies  of  or instrumentalities
established, sponsored or guaranteed by the U.S. Government. At least 65% of the
total assets of the Portfolio will be invested in U.S. Government securities.

CONSERVATIVELY MANAGED  FLEXIBLE PORTFOLIO.  Achievement  of a  favorable  total
investment  return consistent with  a portfolio having  a conservatively managed
mix of money market instruments, fixed  income securities, and common stocks  of
established  companies, in proportions believed by  the investment manager to be
appropriate for an investor desiring diversification of investment who prefers a
relatively lower risk of loss than that associated with the Aggressively Managed
Flexible Portfolio while recognizing  that this reduces  the chances of  greater
appreciation.

AGGRESSIVELY  MANAGED  FLEXIBLE PORTFOLIO.  Achievement of  a high  total return
consistent with a portfolio having an  aggressively managed mix of money  market
instruments, fixed income securities, and common stocks, in proportions believed
by   the  investment  manager  to  be   appropriate  for  an  investor  desiring
diversification of investment who is willing to accept a relatively high risk of
loss in an effort to achieve greater appreciation.

STOCK INDEX PORTFOLIO. Achievement of investment results that correspond to  the
price and yield performance of publicly traded common stocks in the aggregate by
following a policy of attempting to duplicate the price and yield performance of
the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index.

COMMON  STOCK PORTFOLIO.  Capital appreciation  through investment  primarily in
common stocks of companies, including major established corporations as well  as
smaller  capitalization companies, that appear  to offer attractive prospects of
price appreciation  that is  superior to  broadly-based stock  indices.  Current
income, if any, is incidental.

GLOBAL   EQUITY  PORTFOLIO.  Long-term  growth  of  capital  through  investment
primarily in common stock and common  stock equivalents of foreign and  domestic
issuers. Current income, if any, is incidental.

The  investment policies, restrictions  and risks associated  with each of these
seven Fund Portfolios are described in the accompanying Prospectus for the Fund.
Certain restrictions  are  set  forth  in the  Fund's  Statement  of  Additional
Information.

DETERMINATION OF ASSET VALUE

   
The  value  of  the  securities  (except  options  and  fixed  income securities
including convertible bonds) held in VCA-10 will be determined once daily as  of
5:00  P.M.,  New  York time  ("Valuation  Time") using  composite  pricing which
reflects prices as of the close of business on all major exchanges, on each  day
on  which  the New  York Stock  Exchange ("NYSE")  is open  for trading  and, as
provided below,  on  any other  day  in which  there  is sufficient  trading  in
VCA-10's portfolio securities to result in a material change in the value of the
Account.  A security that  is traded on  a national securities  exchange will be
valued at the last sale price for  such security on any major exchange on  which
such  security is traded  as of Valuation  Time, or, in  the absence of recorded
sales on  such  exchange  on the  valuation  date,  at the  average  of  readily
available  bid and  asked prices  on such  exchange at  the Valuation  Time. Any
security not traded on  a national securities exchange  but traded in the  over-
the-counter  market for  which quotations  are furnished  through the nationwide
automated quotation system  approved by the  National Association of  Securities
Dealers,  Inc. ("NASDAQ") will be valued based on  the last sale price as of the
Valuation Time on each  day on which the  NYSE is open for  trading, or, in  the
absence  of recorded sales on such day,  at the average of readily available bid
and asked  prices, as  established by  NASDAQ at  the Valuation  Time.  Unlisted
securities  not quoted on NASDAQ are valued at the average of the quoted bid and
asked prices in the over-the-counter market at the Valuation Time.
    

Fixed income securities including convertible  bonds are valued based on  prices
provided by an industry-recognized pricing service when such prices are believed
to  reflect the  fair market value  of such securities.  Fixed income securities
including convertible bonds not priced in this manner are valued at the mean  of
the  last reported bid and asked prices  provided by principal market makers and
recognized securities dealers in  such securities. Options  on stocks and  stock
indices  traded on national securities  exchanges are valued as  of the close of
options trading on such exchanges (which is currently 4:10 P.M., New York  time)
on  the valuation date. Stock index futures and options thereon which are traded
on commodities exchanges are valued as of the

                                       16
<PAGE>
close of such commodity exchanges (which is currently 4:15 P.M., New York  time)
on  the valuation date. The value of the option or future is based upon the last
sale price on the  exchange on which  the contract is traded  or as provided  by
NASDAQ or at the mean between the last bid and asked price if such bid and asked
price are of a more recent day than the last trade price.

Portfolio  securities for which market quotations are not readily available will
be valued at fair value as determined  in good faith under the direction of  the
Committee.  Short-term investments having  maturities of sixty  days or less are
valued at  amortized  cost which,  with  accrued interest,  approximates  market
value.  Amortized  cost is  computed using  the  cost on  the date  of purchase,
adjusted for  constant  accrual  of  discount  or  amortization  of  premium  to
maturity.

The  value of securities in  VCA-11 is determined daily  at 12:00 noon, New York
City time,  on  each business  day  and  on any  other  day in  which  there  is
sufficient  trading in  VCA-11's portfolio  securities to  result in  a material
change in  the value  of the  Account.  With the  exception of  U.S.  Government
securities held subject to repurchase agreements that may have maturity dates in
excess  of  one year  from the  date  of delivery  of the  repurchase agreement,
securities held in VCA-11 consist primarily of debt obligations with a remaining
maturity of  less than  thirteen  months. These  securities  will be  valued  at
amortized  cost.  If the  net asset  value of  VCA-11 fluctuates  by as  much as
one-half of one  percent because  of the  use of  the amortized  cost method  as
opposed  to the  mark-to-market valuation, then  the Committee  will be promptly
notified so that corrective  action may be  taken to avoid  the dilution of  the
interests  of Participants in  investment companies. This  corrective action may
entail selling portfolio instruments prior to maturity, redeeming shares in kind
or using market value.  In determining the market  value for securities held  in
VCA-11,  where the  primary market  for a  security is  an exchange,  the market
quotations are obtained from that exchange.  Securities which are not listed  on
an  exchange and for which market quotations are readily available are valued at
the market price as obtained from one or more of the major market makers.  Other
investments  and assets  are valued  at fair  value as  determined by appraisal.
Prudential supervises and retains responsibility  for such appraisals under  the
direction of the VCA-11 Committee.

The  proceeds from  sales of  VCA-11's assets  generally will  vary inversely to
changes in  interest rates.  If  interest rates  increase  after a  security  is
purchased, the security, if sold, may return less than its cost.

The procedures for computing the net asset value of Fund shares are described in
the accompanying Fund Prospectus.

                                   MANAGEMENT

   
The  operations of VCA-10 and VCA-11 are conducted under the general supervision
of each Account's  Committee and  in accordance  with each  Account's Rules  and
Regulations.  The members of each Account's Committee are elected for indefinite
terms by the Participants in that Account and by any other persons who may  have
voting  rights  in respect  of  the Account.  See  "Voting Rights,"  page  33. A
majority of the Committee members are not "interested persons" of Prudential  or
of  the Accounts, as defined in the 1940 Act. Information about the Fund's Board
of Directors is  provided in  the accompanying Prospectus  of the  Fund and  its
Statement of Additional Information.
    

Prudential  serves as the investment manager of  the Accounts and the Fund under
separate  investment  management  agreements  with  each  of  them.  Subject  to
Prudential's  supervision, all of the investment management services provided by
Prudential  are  furnished  by  its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  The   Prudential
Investment  Corporation ("PIC"). Prudential continues to have responsibility for
all investment advisory services under its investment management agreements with
the Accounts and the  Fund. Pursuant to a  service agreement between  Prudential
and PIC, Prudential reimburses PIC for its costs and expenses. PIC is registered
as  an investment adviser under the  Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Prudential
Investment Advisors (PIA), a division of PIC, supplies the services with respect
to equity securities, money market instruments and other debt securities.

   
Under the  above-described  service agreement,  as  of December  31,  1994,  PIA
managed  approximately  $22.9  billion  in common  stock  investments  and $21.0
billion in short-term investments.
    

An affiliated broker may be employed to execute brokerage transactions on behalf
of the Accounts and the Fund, as long as the commissions are reasonable and fair
compared to  the  commissions  received  by other  brokers  in  connection  with
comparable  transactions involving similar securities being purchased or sold on
a securities exchange during a comparable  period of time. The Accounts and  the
Fund  may not engage in any transactions  in which Prudential or its affiliates,
including Prudential  Securities  Incorporated,  acts  as  principal,  including
over-the-counter purchases and negotiated trades in which such a party acts as a
principal.

Prudential   is   also  responsible   for   the  Accounts'   administrative  and
recordkeeping functions and pays the  expenses associated with them. Certain  of
these   services  are  performed  on  behalf   of  Prudential  by  its  indirect
wholly-owned subsidiary, The Prudential Asset Management Company, Inc., pursuant
to a service  agreement. More information  about the service  agreement and  the
services provided may be found in the Statement of

                                       17
<PAGE>
Additional  Information. Information about the administrative, recordkeeping and
other expenses of the Fund appears  in the accompanying Fund prospectus, and  in
the Fund's Statement of Additional Information.

                                    CHARGES

No  deduction is made from contributions to  VCA-10, VCA-11 or any Subaccount of
VCA-24 at the  time they are  made. Accordingly, one  hundred percent (100%)  of
those  contributions  is invested  in  the program.  Certain  charges, described
below, are imposed upon withdrawal of all  or part of the contributions made  on
behalf  of Participants, or upon each  Participant's Accumulation Account in the
Program.

DEFERRED SALES CHARGE

PRSI performs certain sales and distribution functions regarding the  Contracts.
In  consideration for these services, a  deferred sales charge which is designed
to cover expenses relating to sales of the Contracts, including commissions, may
be imposed upon  contributions withdrawn  by a  Participant. To  the extent  the
deferred sales charge does not repay these expenses, the difference will be made
up  from Prudential's  surplus held  in its general  account. The  amount of the
deferred sales charge  imposed upon any  withdrawal depends upon  the number  of
years  of a Participant's participation  in a MEDLEY Program,  the year in which
the withdrawal is made, and the  kind of retirement arrangement that covers  the
Participant.

   
Participation  in a Program begins upon the  date when the first contribution on
behalf of  the Participant  under a  Contract described  in this  Prospectus,  a
Companion  Contract, or the fixed rate  option along with enrollment information
in a form satisfactory to Prudential,  is received by Prudential at the  address
shown  on the cover page of this Prospectus. Such participation ends on the date
when all  of  the Participant's  Accumulation  Accounts under  the  Program  are
cancelled.  In the event of such  cancellation, Prudential reserves the right to
consider the Participant to be participating  in the Program for a limited  time
(currently  about one year)  for the purposes of  calculating any deferred sales
charge on the withdrawal of any future contributions.
    

The chart below describes the maximum amount of the deferred sales charge.

The proceeds received by a Participant upon any partial or full withdrawal  will
be reduced by the amount of any deferred sales charge.
    

Lower  deferred  sales  charges  may be  imposed  under  certain  Contracts. See
"Modification of Charges," page 19.

LIMITATIONS ON SALES CHARGES

   
No deferred sales charge is imposed upon contributions withdrawn to purchase  an
annuity  under a Contract, to provide a  death benefit, pursuant to a systematic
withdrawal plan,  to provide  a minimum  distribution payment,  or in  cases  of
financial hardship or disability retirement as determined pursuant to provisions
of  the employer's  retirement arrangement.  Further, for  all plans  other than
IRAs, no deferred sales  charge is imposed upon  contributions withdrawn due  to
resignation  or retirement by the Participant  or termination of the Participant
by the Contract-holder. In  addition, no deferred sales  charge is imposed  upon
contributions withdrawn for any reason after fifteen years of participation in a
Program.
    

Contributions  transferred among VCA-10, VCA-11,  the Subaccounts of VCA-24, the
Companion Contract, and the fixed  rate option of the Non-Qualified  Combination
Contract  are considered to  be withdrawals from the  Account or Subaccount from
which the transfer is made, but no  deferred sales charge is imposed upon  them.
They  will, however, be considered as  contributions to the receiving Account or
Subaccount for purposes of  calculating any deferred  sales charge imposed  upon
their subsequent withdrawal from it.

   
Loans are considered to be withdrawals from the Account or Subaccount from which
the  loan  amount was  deducted but  are  not considered  a withdrawal  from the
Program. Therefore, no deferred sales charge is imposed upon them. The principal
portion of any loan repayment, however, will be treated as a contribution to the
receiving Account or Subaccount for  purposes of calculating any deferred  sales
charge  imposed upon any  subsequent withdrawal. If  the Participant defaults on
the loan by,  for example, failing  to make required  payments, the  outstanding
balance of the loan will be treated as a withdrawal for purposes of the deferred
sales  charge.  The  deferred  sales  charge will  be  withdrawn  from  the same
Accumulation Accounts,  and in  the same  proportions, as  the loan  amount  was
withdrawn. If sufficient funds do not remain in those Accumulation Accounts, the
deferred   sales  charge  will   be  withdrawn  from   the  Participant's  other
Accumulation Accounts as well.
    

Withdrawals, transfers  and loans  from VCA-10,  VCA-11 and  each Subaccount  of
VCA-24  are  considered to  be  withdrawals of  contributions  until all  of the
Participant's  contributions   to   the   Account  or   Subaccount   have   been

                                       18
<PAGE>
withdrawn,  transferred or  borrowed. No deferred  sales charge  is imposed upon
withdrawals of any amount in excess of contributions.

ANNUAL ACCOUNT CHARGE

An annual account charge for recordkeeping and other administrative services  is
deducted  from  each Participant's  Accumulation  Account in  the  Program. This
annual account charge is payable to Prudential and is made on the last  business
day  of each calendar year as long  as the Participant still has an Accumulation
Account under the Program. The annual account  charge will be pro rated for  new
Participants  for the first year of their  participation, based on the number of
full months  remaining in  the calendar  year after  the first  contribution  is
received. If all of the Participant's Accumulation Accounts are cancelled before
the  end of the year, the charge will  be made on the date the last Accumulation
Account is cancelled (and the charge will not be pro rated if this occurs during
the year in which the  first contribution is made  to such Account). The  annual
account   charge  will  not  be  made,  however,  upon  the  cancellation  of  a
Participant's Accumulation Account to  purchase an annuity  under a Contract  if
the  annuity becomes effective on  January 1 of any  year. After a cancellation,
the Participant may again participate in  the Program only as a new  Participant
and  will be subject  to a new  annual account charge.  Also, the annual account
charge will not  be made if  the Participant's  employer has chosen  to pay  the
charge.

The aggregate annual account charge with respect to a Participant's Accumulation
Accounts  will not be greater than $20. The  charge will first be made against a
Participant's Accumulation Account  under a fixed-dollar  Companion Contract  or
fixed  rate option of the Non-Qualified Combination Contract. If the Participant
has no Accumulation Account under a Companion Contract or the fixed rate option,
or if that Accumulation Account is too small to pay the charge, the charge  will
be  made  against  the  Participant's Accumulation  Account  in  VCA-11.  If the
Participant has no VCA-11 Accumulation Account, or if that Account is too  small
to pay the charge, the charge will then be made against the Participant's VCA-10
Accumulation  Account. If the Participant has no VCA-10 Accumulation Account, or
if it is too small to pay the  charge, the charge will then be made against  any
one or more of the Participant's Accumulation Accounts in VCA-24.

The  cash positions of VCA-10, VCA-11 and the Subaccounts of VCA-24 are expected
to be sufficient to cover such part  of the charge that is collected from  them.
Accordingly,  that collection  should have  no adverse  financial effect  on any
Account or Subaccount.

CHARGE FOR ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
AND INVESTMENT
MANAGEMENT SERVICES

A daily charge is made  which is equal to an  effective annual rate of 1.00%  of
the  net value of the assets in VCA-10 and VCA-11. Three quarters of this charge
(0.75%) is for administrative expenses not covered by the annual account charge,
and one quarter  (0.25%) is for  investment management. A  daily charge is  also
made which is equal to an effective annual rate of 0.75% of the net value of the
assets  in each Subaccount of  VCA-24. All of this  charge is for administrative
expenses not covered by the annual account charge. These charges are payable  to
Prudential  and are reflected  in the computation  of the value  of the Units in
each Account and Subaccount. See "The Unit Value," page 21 and "The Unit  Change
Factor  for Any  Business Day,"  page 21.  It should  be noted  that because the
administrative charge of 0.75% is a charge based on a percentage of assets in an
Account, there is no necessary  relationship between this administrative  charge
and the amount of expenses attributable to a particular Contract or Participant.

   
Prudential  makes daily charges for providing  investment management of the Fund
Portfolios at the following effective annual  rates: 0.35% of the average  daily
net  assets of the Stock Index Portfolio,  0.40% of the average daily net assets
of the Bond Portfolio and Government Securities Portfolio, 0.45% of the  average
daily  net assets of the Common Stock  Portfolio, 0.55% of the average daily net
assets of the Conservatively  Managed Flexible Portfolio,  0.60% of the  average
daily net assets of the Aggressively Managed Flexible Portfolio and 0.75% of the
average daily net assets of the Global Equity Portfolio. Other expenses borne by
the Fund include costs of Portfolio transactions, legal and accounting expenses,
and  the fees  of the  Fund's custodian  and transfer  agent. Further  detail is
provided in  the accompanying  Prospectus  for the  Fund  and its  Statement  of
Additional Information.
    

MODIFICATION OF CHARGES

Prudential  may impose deferred  sales charges and  annual account charges lower
than those described above with respect to Participants under certain Contracts.
These lower charges will reflect  Prudential's anticipation that lower sales  or
administrative  costs will be incurred, or less sales or administrative services
will be performed, with respect to such Contracts due to economies arising  from
(1)  the utilization  of mass  enrollment procedures  or (2)  the performance of
recordkeeping or sales functions, which  Prudential would otherwise be  required
to  perform, by  the Contract-holder,  an employee  organization, or  by a third
party on their  behalf or (3)  an accumulated surplus  of charges over  expenses
under  a particular Contract. Generally, the deferred sales charge is lowered or
waived depending on the  amount of local  service the Contract-holder  requires.

                                       19
<PAGE>
   
Each  Contract-holder  makes  this  election  at the  time  he  enters  into the
Contract. The  exact amount  of the  deferred sales  charge and  annual  account
charge applicable to Participants under any given Contract will be stated in the
Contract.
    

   
Prudential  may change the deferred sales  charge, the annual account charge and
the charge of 0.75% for administrative expenses. See "Changes in the Contracts,"
page 30.
    
                                 THE CONTRACTS
   
Prudential generally  issues  the Contracts  to  employers whose  employees  may
become  Participants. Under  an IRA,  a Participant's  spouse may  also become a
Participant. Sometimes a Contract  is issued to  an association that  represents
employers  of  employees who  become Participants,  sometimes to  an association
whose members become  Participants and sometimes  to a trustee  of a trust  with
participating  employers  whose employees  become  Participants. Even  though an
employer, an  association or  a  trustee is  the Contract-holder,  the  Contract
normally  provides that Participants  shall have the  rights and interests under
them that are described in this Prospectus. But this is not always true. When  a
Contract  is used to fund a deferred compensation plan established under Section
457 of the Internal Revenue Code, for example, all rights under the Contract are
owned by the employer to whom, or  on whose behalf, the Contract is issued.  All
amounts  becoming payable under the Contract are payable to the employer and are
its exclusive property. For  a plan established under  Section 457 of the  Code,
the  employee has no rights or interests under the Contract, including any right
or interest  in the  Accumulation Account  established in  his name  in  VCA-10,
VCA-11  or any Subaccount of VCA-24, except  as provided in the employer's plan.
This  may  also  be   true  with  respect   to  certain  non-qualified   annuity
arrangements.
    

   
Also,  a particular plan,  even if it  is not a  deferred compensation plan, may
limit a Participant's exercise of certain rights under a Contract.  Participants
should  check the provisions of their employer's plan or any agreements with the
employer to see if  there are any  such limitations and, if  so, what they  are.
Prudential may issue the Non-Qualified Combination Contract to cover individuals
who are not associated with a single employer or other organization.
    

THE ACCUMULATION PERIOD

    1. CONTRIBUTIONS; CREDITING UNITS; ENROLLMENT
       FORMS; DEDUCTION FOR ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.

   
       Contributions  to a Program ordinarily will be made periodically pursuant
       to a payroll deduction or  similar agreement between the Participant  and
       his employer. Any contributions to an IRA must be in an amount of no less
       than  $500, except for  contributions to an IRA  for a non-working spouse
       (or working spouse  who elects to  be treated as  a non-working  spouse),
       which are limited to $250 per year.
    

   
       A  Participant designates what  portion of the  contributions made on his
       behalf should be  invested in  VCA-10, VCA-11  and in  any Subaccount  of
       VCA-24  (if all  three Accounts  are part  of his  employer's Program) or
       under a fixed rate option or Companion Contract, if any. The  Participant
       may  change  this  designation  usually by  notifying  Prudential  at the
       address shown  on  the  cover  page of  this  Prospectus.  Under  certain
       Contracts,  an entity  other than  Prudential keeps  certain records, and
       Participants under those  Contracts must contact  the record-keeper.  See
       "Modified Procedures," page 28.
    

       The  full amount (100%) of each contribution designated for investment in
       VCA-10, VCA-11 or any Subaccount of VCA-24 is credited to an Accumulation
       Account maintained for the Participant in that Account or Subaccount.  An
       Accumulation  Account in VCA-10 consists of VCA-10 Units; an Accumulation
       Account in VCA-11 consists of VCA-11 Units; an Accumulation Account in  a
       Subaccount  of VCA-24 consists of Units of that Subaccount. The number of
       Units credited to a Participant in an Account or Subaccount is determined
       by dividing the  amount of the  contribution made on  his behalf to  that
       Account or Subaccount by the Account's or Subaccount's Unit Value for the
       business  day on which the contribution  is received at the address shown
       on the cover page of  this Prospectus. A business day  is a day on  which
       the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading.

   
       The  initial  contribution made  for a  Participant  will be  invested in
       VCA-10, VCA-11 or a Subaccount of VCA-24 no later than two business  days
       after it is received by Prudential and identified as being for investment
       in  VCA-10, VCA-11  or a  Subaccount of VCA-24,  if it  is accompanied by
       satisfactory enrollment information. Contributions for a Participant that
       are so identified  and for whom  insufficient enrollment information  has
       been  received will be  held by Prudential  in a suspense  account and no
       interest will be  credited upon  that amount.  A written  notice will  be
       mailed  to the Participant requesting that enrollment information be sent
       to Prudential at  the address shown  on the cover  of this Prospectus  as
       soon  as  possible. The  notice will  state  that unless  the Participant
       consents to  retaining  the  money  in the  suspense  account  until  the
       enrollment  information is  received by  Prudential, it  will be returned
       within  five  business  days  from  the  date  of  the  receipt  of   the
       contribution.  Consent may be given by  telephone but should be confirmed
       in writing. If
    

                                       20
<PAGE>
       neither satisfactory enrollment information nor the necessary consent  is
       received, the contribution will be returned.

   
       The  number  of  VCA-10 Units,  VCA-11  Units  or Units  of  a particular
       Subaccount of VCA-24 credited  to a Participant will  not be affected  by
       any  subsequent change in the value of  those Units, but the dollar value
       of a Unit will vary from business day to business day depending upon  the
       investment  experience of the Account or  Subaccount. The number of Units
       credited to a Participant in an Account or Subaccount will be reduced  as
       the  result of  the annual  account charge. That  charge will  be made by
       cancelling the number of Units that is equal to the amount of the  charge
       (see  "Annual Account Charge," page 19) divided by the Unit Value for the
       business day on which the charge is made.
    

    2. VALUATION OF A PARTICIPANT'S ACCOUNT

       The value of a Participant's Accumulation Account in VCA-10, VCA-11 or in
       a Subaccount of VCA-24 on any particular day is determined by multiplying
       the total number of Units then to the Participant's credit in the Account
       or Subaccount by the Account's or Subaccount's Unit Value on that day.

    3. THE UNIT VALUE

       On November 4, 1982,  the date of the  first Participant contribution  to
       VCA-10,  the Unit Value for VCA-10 was set at $1.00. On November 8, 1982,
       the date of the first Participant contribution to VCA-11, the Unit  Value
       for VCA-11 was set at $1.00. The Unit Value for each Subaccount of VCA-24
       was  set  at $1.00  on the  date  of commencement  of operations  of that
       Subaccount. The Unit Value for any subsequent business day is  determined
       as  of the end of that day by multiplying the Unit Change Factor for that
       day (see below) by  the Account's Unit Value  for the preceding  business
       day.

    4. THE UNIT CHANGE FACTOR FOR ANY BUSINESS DAY

   
       The  Unit Change  Factor for  VCA-10 and VCA-11  for any  business day is
       obtained by  (a) dividing  the assets  at the  end of  the day  (ignoring
       current  day transfers, redemptions  and subscriptions) by  the assets at
       the end of the previous business day, and (b) dividing such value by  the
       sum  of 1.00  and the rate  of deduction for  administrative expenses and
       investment management fee for the number of days in such period, computed
       at an  effective annual  rate of  1%. The  result is  the Account's  Unit
       Change Factor for the business day.
    

       The Unit Change Factor for a Subaccount of VCA-24 for any business day is
       determined  by dividing the current day net asset value for shares by the
       net asset value for shares on  the previous business day. This factor  is
       then reduced by a daily equivalent (for the number of days since the last
       valuation)  of the  .75% annual  charge for  administrative expenses. See
       "Charge for Administrative Expenses and Investment Management  Services,"
       page  19.  The value  of  the assets  of  a Subaccount  is  determined by
       multiplying the number of Fund shares held by that Subaccount by the  net
       asset  value of each share and adding  the value of dividends declared by
       the Fund but not yet paid.

    5. WITHDRAWAL (REDEMPTION) OF CONTRIBUTIONS.

       The Internal  Revenue  Code  imposes  restrictions  on  withdrawals  from
       tax-deferred annuities subject to Section 403(b) of the Code. Pursuant to
       Section  403(b)(11) of the Code,  amounts attributable to a Participant's
       salary reduction contributions (including the earnings thereon) that  are
       made  under a  tax-deferred annuity after  December 31, 1988  can only be
       withdrawn (redeemed) when the Participant  attains age 59 1/2,  separates
       from  service with  his employer,  dies or  becomes disabled  (within the
       meaning of Section 72(m)(7) of the  Code). However, the Code permits  the
       withdrawal  at any time  of amounts attributable  to tax-deferred annuity
       salary reduction contributions (EXCLUDING THE EARNINGS THEREON) that  are
       made  after  December  31,  1988,  in the  case  of  a  hardship.  If the
       retirement arrangement under  which a Participant  is covered contains  a
       financial hardship provision, withdrawals can be made in the event of the
       hardship.

       Furthermore,  subject to  any restrictions upon  withdrawals contained in
       the  tax-deferred  annuity  arrangement  under  which  a  Participant  is
       covered,  a  Participant can  withdraw at  any  time all  or part  of his
       interest in his Accumulation Account(s) as of December 31, 1988.  Amounts
       earned  after December  31, 1988  on the December  31, 1988  balance in a
       Participant's Accumulation  Account(s) attributable  to salary  reduction
       contributions  are, however, subject to the Section 403(b)(11) withdrawal
       restrictions discussed above.

       Subject to any conditions or limitations regarding transfers contained in
       the  tax-deferred  annuity  arrangement  under  which  a  Participant  is
       covered,  a Participant can continue to make  transfers of all or part of
       his  interest  in  his   Accumulation  Account(s)  among  the   available
       investment  options offered by  the Prudential and  can transfer directly
       all or part of his interest  in his Accumulation Account(s) to a  Section

                                       21
<PAGE>
       403(b) tax-deferred annuity contract of another insurance company or to a
       mutual  fund  custodial account  under  Section 403(b)(7).  See "Transfer
       Payments", page 25.

       Unless restricted by the tax-deferred annuity arrangement under which  he
       is  covered, a Participant  may withdraw at  any time all  or part of his
       interest in his Accumulation Account(s) that is attributable to  employer
       contributions or after-tax Participant contributions, if any.

   
       With respect to retirement arrangements other than tax-deferred annuities
       subject  to Section 403(b) of  the Code (e.g., Code  Section 457 plans) a
       Participant's right to withdraw at any  time all or part of his  interest
       in  VCA-10, VCA-11 or any  Subaccount of VCA-24 may  be restricted by the
       retirement arrangement  under  which he  is  covered. For  example,  Code
       Section  457 plans typically  permit withdrawals only  upon attainment of
       age 70 1/2, separation from service, or for unforeseeable emergencies.
    

   
       Withdrawal requests should be submitted  to Prudential in the manner  set
       out  in the  Summary section  of this prospectus  or, if  required by the
       Contract, another entity providing record-keeping services. See "Modified
       Procedures," page 28. Under certain Contracts, the amount withdrawn  from
       an  Account or Subaccount must  be at least $500  ($250 with respect to a
       minimum distribution payment) or, if less,  then equal to the full  value
       of  the Participant's interest  in the Account  or Subaccount. The amount
       withdrawn will be reduced  by any deferred sales  charge that may  apply.
       See  "Deferred Sales  Charge," page  18. If  a Participant  withdraws the
       value of  all of  his Accumulation  Accounts under  a Program,  the  full
       annual  account charge will be deducted at that time that would otherwise
       have been deducted at the end of the calendar year and those Accumulation
       Accounts will  be cancelled.  The resulting  amount will  be paid  within
       seven days after the written request for the withdrawal has been received
       in a manner prescribed by Prudential, except as deferment of such payment
       may be permitted under the provisions of the 1940 Act in effect from time
       to time. Currently, deferment is permissible only when the New York Stock
       Exchange  is closed or trading is restricted, when an emergency exists as
       a result  of which  disposal of  the securities  held in  the Account  or
       Subaccount involved is not reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably
       practicable   to  determine  fairly   the  value  of   the  Account's  or
       Subaccount's assets, or when the  Securities and Exchange Commission  has
       provided for such deferment for the protection of Participants. As of the
       day  a  written withdrawal  request  is received  on  a form  approved by
       Prudential, the Participant's Accumulation  Account in VCA-10, VCA-11  or
       any  Subaccount of  VCA-24, as the  case may  be, will be  reduced by the
       lesser of the  number of  Units obtained by  dividing the  amount of  the
       Participant's  withdrawal request by the Unit  Value for that day, or the
       number of Units remaining in the Accumulation Account.
    

       Under certain types of retirement arrangements, the Retirement Equity Act
       of 1984  requires that  in the  case of  a married  Participant,  certain
       withdrawal requests include the consent of the Participant's spouse. This
       consent  must contain  the signatures of  the Participant  and spouse and
       must be notarized or witnessed by an authorized plan representative.

   
       A withdrawal will generally have  federal income tax consequences,  which
       can include tax penalties. See "Federal Tax Status," page 31.
    

    6. SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN

       If  permitted  by Internal  Revenue Code  regulations and  the retirement
       arrangement under  which a  Participant is  covered, and  subject to  the
       restrictions  and limitations set forth  below, a Participant may arrange
       for systematic withdrawals to be made from his Accumulation Account(s). A
       Participant may arrange for systematic  withdrawals only if, at the  time
       he  elects to have such an arrangement,  the sum of the balance(s) in his
       Accumulation Account(s) is at least $5,000,  and he has repaid all  loans
       made  to him. A Participant who has  not reached age 59 1/2, however, may
       not elect  a  systematic  withdrawal  arrangement  unless  he  has  first
       separated from service with his employer. In addition, the $5,000 minimum
       balance  does not apply to systematic withdrawals made for the purpose of
       satisfying minimum distribution rules.

   
       Federal income tax  provisions applicable to  the retirement  arrangement
       under  which  a  Participant  is  covered  may  significantly  affect the
       availability of systematic  withdrawals, how  they may be  made, and  the
       consequences  of making  them. Withdrawals by  Participants are generally
       taxable and  Participants who  have  not reached  age  59 1/2  may  incur
       substantial  tax  penalties.  Withdrawals made  after  a  Participant has
       attained age 70  1/2 and  by beneficiaries must  satisfy certain  minimum
       distribution rules. See "Federal Tax Status," page 31.
    

       Systematic  withdrawals may be arranged only pursuant to an election on a
       form  approved  by   Prudential.  Under  certain   types  of   retirement
       arrangements,  an  election to  arrange for  systematic withdrawals  by a
       married Participant must

                                       22
<PAGE>
       be consented to in writing  by the Participant's spouse, with  signatures
       notarized or witnessed by an authorized plan representative. The election
       must  specify that the systematic withdrawals shall be made on a monthly,
       quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis.

       All systematic  withdrawals  shall  be  made on  the  day  of  the  month
       designated   by  the  Contract-holder,  and   shall  continue  until  the
       Participant has  withdrawn  all  of  the  balances  in  his  Accumulation
       Account(s)  or  has instructed  Prudential  in writing  to  terminate his
       systematic withdrawal  arrangement. The  Participant  may elect  to  make
       systematic  withdrawals  in  equal  dollar amounts  (in  which  case each
       withdrawal must be at least $250),  unless it is made to satisfy  minimum
       distribution  rules, or over  a specified period of  time (at least three
       years). Where the Participant elects to make systematic withdrawals  over
       a  specified period  of time, the  amount of  each withdrawal--which will
       vary, reflecting investment experience during the withdrawal period--will
       be  equal  to  the  sum  of  the  balances  then  in  the   Participant's
       Accumulation  Account(s) divided by the  number of systematic withdrawals
       remaining to be made during the withdrawal period.
       Systematic withdrawals  shall be  taken first  out of  the  Participant's
       Accumulation Account, if any, in the Companion Contract or the fixed rate
       option   until  that  Accumulation   Account  is  exhausted.  Thereafter,
       systematic withdrawals  will be  taken in  order from  the  Participant's
       Accumulation Account(s) (until each is exhausted), in VCA-11, VCA-10, the
       VCA-24  Common Stock Subaccount,  the VCA-24 Bond  Subaccount, the VCA-24
       Conservatively  Managed  Flexible  Subaccount,  the  VCA-24  Aggressively
       Managed  Flexible  Subaccount,  the VCA-24  Stock  Index  Subaccount, the
       VCA-24 Government  Securities Subaccount,  and the  VCA-24 Global  Equity
       Subaccount.

       A  Participant  may  change  the frequency,  amount  or  duration  of his
       systematic withdrawals by submitting a form to Prudential that Prudential
       will provide to him  upon request. A Participant  may make such a  change
       only once during each calendar year.

       A  Participant  may  at any  time  instruct Prudential  to  terminate the
       Participant's  systematic  withdrawal  arrangement,  and  no   systematic
       withdrawals  will  be  made for  him  after Prudential  has  received his
       instruction.  A  Participant  who  chooses  to  stop  making   systematic
       withdrawals  may not again make them until the next calendar year and may
       be subject to federal tax consequences as a result thereof.

   
       An arrangement to make systematic withdrawals will not affect any of  the
       Participant's  other rights under  the Contracts, including  the right to
       make  withdrawals  (redemptions)   described  on  page   21-22  of   this
       Prospectus, the right to make transfers described on pages 25-27, and the
       right  to purchase  a fixed  dollar annuity  described on  pages 28-29. A
       Participant  may  not  effect  a  loan,  however,  while  his  systematic
       withdrawal arrangement is in effect.
    

   
       No  deferred  sales charge  is imposed  upon systematic  withdrawals made
       pursuant to an arrangement elected as described above; provided, however,
       that Prudential reserves the  right to apply a  deferred sales charge  on
       systematic withdrawals where payments are made for less than three years.
       Furthermore, a Participant who is receiving systematic withdrawals and is
       over  the  age  of  59  1/2  may  make  one  additional,  non-systematic,
       withdrawal during each calendar  year in an amount  that does not  exceed
       10%  of the  sum of  the balances in  his Accumulation  Account(s) and no
       deferred sales  charge  shall  be  imposed  upon  such  withdrawal.  This
       additional   withdrawal  may  be  made  from  any  of  the  Participant's
       Accumulation  Account(s),  as  the   Participant  may  elect.   Different
       procedures  may  apply for  Contracts under  which  an entity  other than
       Prudential provides record-keeping  services. See "Modified  Procedures,"
       page 28.
    

    7. TEXAS OPTIONAL RETIREMENT PROGRAM

       Special   rules  apply   with  respect  to   Contracts  covering  persons
       participating in the Texas Optional Retirement Program ("Texas  Program")
       in order to comply with the provisions of Texas law relating to the Texas
       Program.

       Under  the terms  of the Texas  Program, Texas will  contribute an amount
       somewhat larger than a  Participant's contribution. Texas'  contributions
       will  be credited to the  Participant's individual Accumulation Accounts.
       Until the  Participant begins  his second  year of  participation in  the
       Texas  Program as a  "faculty member" as defined  in Section 31.001(8) of
       Title 110B of the Texas Revised Civil Statutes, Prudential will have  the
       right  to withdraw the value of the  Units purchased for his account with
       Texas' contributions. If  the Participant  does not  commence his  second
       year   of  Texas  Program   participation,  the  value   of  those  Units
       representing Texas' contribution  will be withdrawn  and returned to  the
       State.

       Pursuant  to  Section 36.105  of Title  110B of  the Texas  Revised Civil
       Statutes and a ruling of the State Attorney General, withdrawal  benefits
       of Contracts issued under the Texas Program are

                                       23
<PAGE>
       available  only  in the  event of  a  Participant's death,  retirement or
       termination of  employment in  all institutions  of higher  education  as
       defined  in Section 61.003 of the Texas Education Code. Participants will
       not, therefore, be entitled to exercise the right of withdrawal in  order
       to  receive in cash the values credited to them under the Contract unless
       one of  the foregoing  conditions  has been  satisfied.  The value  of  a
       Participant's  interests under the Contract  may, however, be transferred
       to another Prudential  contract or contracts  of other carriers  approved
       under  the Texas  Program during  the period  of the  Participant's Texas
       Program participation.

    8. DEATH BENEFITS

   
       Upon receipt by Prudential  of due proof of  a Participant's death and  a
       claim  and payment election submitted on a form approved by Prudential, a
       death benefit made up  of the balance  in the Participant's  Accumulation
       Accounts  (after deduction of  the annual account  charge and calculated,
       insofar as Accumulation Accounts in VCA-10, VCA-11 and the Subaccounts of
       VCA-24 are concerned, as the product  of the Unit Value for the  business
       day on which Prudential receives due proof of the Participant's death and
       other  necessary forms multiplied by the number of Units then credited to
       the Participant's Accumulation Account) will be payable to his designated
       beneficiary. The  appropriate  address to  which  a death  benefit  claim
       should  be sent is set out in the Summary section of this Prospectus. For
       certain Contracts a death  benefit claim should be  sent to a  designated
       record-keeper rather than Prudential. See "Modified Procedures," page 28.
    

   
       The  death  benefit will  be  paid in  one  sum as  if  it were  a single
       withdrawal, as systematic withdrawals, as an annuity, or a combination of
       the three, as the  Participant may have directed  subject to the  minimum
       distribution  rules of  Code Section  401(a)(9) as  described below under
       "Federal Tax  Status."  If  the  Participant has  not  so  directed,  the
       beneficiary  may,  within  any  time  limit  prescribed  by  or  for  the
       retirement arrangement that covered the Participant, elect:
    

       a. to receive a one-sum cash payment;
       b. to have  a fixed-dollar  annuity  purchased under  the Contract  on  a
          specified  date, using the same annuity purchase rate basis that would
          have applied if the Participant's account were being used to  purchase
          an annuity for the Participant.

       c. to   receive  regular  payments  in  accordance  with  the  systematic
          withdrawal plan; or

       d. a combination of all or any two of (a), (b), and (c)

   
       Unless  restricted  by  the   retirement  arrangement  under  which   the
       Participant  is covered, or unless the Participant has elected otherwise,
       if within one year after  the Participant's death the beneficiary  elects
       to  use  at  one time  the  entire balance  in  any  one or  more  of the
       Participant's Accumulation Accounts  to receive a  one-sum cash  payment,
       Prudential will add to the death benefit, if necessary, so that the total
       made  available to  the beneficiary will  equal the  contributions to the
       Program minus any withdrawals or transfers  from it and minus the  annual
       account charge, if any.
    

       Under certain types of retirement arrangements, the Retirement Equity Act
       of  1984 requires  that in  the case  of a  married Participant,  a death
       benefit be  payable  to  the  Participant's  spouse  in  the  form  of  a
       "qualified  pre-retirement survivor annuity." A "qualified pre-retirement
       survivor annuity" is  an annuity  for the lifetime  of the  Participant's
       spouse  in an amount which can be purchased  with no less than 50% of the
       balance in the Participant's account as  of his date of death. Under  the
       Retirement  Equity  Act,  the spouse  of  a Participant  in  a retirement
       arrangement which is  subject to  these rules  may consent  to waive  the
       pre-retirement  survivor annuity  benefit. Such  consent must acknowledge
       the effect  of  waiving  the  coverage, contain  the  signatures  of  the
       Participant  and  spouse  and  must  be  notarized  or  witnessed  by  an
       authorized plan representative. Unless the  spouse of a Participant in  a
       Plan  which is subject to these requirements properly waives the benefit,
       50% of the balance in all of the Participant's Accumulation Accounts will
       be paid to  such spouse  even if  the designated  beneficiary is  someone
       other than the spouse. Under these circumstances, the remaining 50% would
       be paid to Participant's designated beneficiary.

   
       Unless  the retirement arrangement that  covered the Participant provides
       otherwise, a  beneficiary  who  elects to  have  a  fixed-dollar  annuity
       purchased  for  himself  may choose  from  among the  available  forms of
       annuity. See "Available  Forms of Annuity,"  page 29.The beneficiary  may
       elect  to purchase  an annuity  immediately or  at a  future date.  If an
       election includes systematic withdrawals,  the beneficiary will have  the
       right  to terminate such withdrawals and receive the remaining balance in
       the Participant's Accumulation  Accounts in  cash (or  effect an  annuity
       with  it),  or  to  change  the  frequency,  size  or  duration  of  such
       withdrawals, subject to the minimum distribution rules. (See "Federal Tax
       Status" on page 31). If the beneficiary fails to
    

                                       24
<PAGE>
       make any  election  within  any  time limit  prescribed  by  or  for  the
       retirement  arrangement that  covered the Participant,  within seven days
       after the expiration of that time  limit, a one-sum cash payment will  be
       made  to the beneficiary, after deduction of the annual account charge. A
       specific  contract  may  provide  that  an  annuity  is  payable  to  the
       beneficiary if the beneficiary fails to make an election.

   
       Until  a  death benefit  is paid  that  results in  reducing to  zero the
       balance in  all  of  the  Participant's  Accumulation  Accounts  under  a
       Program,  those Accounts  will be maintained  for the  beneficiary in the
       same manner  as  they  had  been for  the  Participant,  except  (i)  the
       beneficiary  may make  no contributions  (ii) no  loans may  be taken and
       (iii) no deferred sales charge will be imposed upon withdrawals.
    

    9. DISCONTINUANCE OF CONTRIBUTIONS

       Contributions on behalf of all Participants  under a Contract or for  all
       Participants  of an employer covered under a Contract may be discontinued
       upon notice by the Contract-holder to Prudential. Contributions under the
       Contract will  also be  discontinued for  all Participants  covered by  a
       retirement arrangement that is terminated.

       On  90 days' advance notice to  the Contract-holder, Prudential may elect
       not to accept any new Participant, or not to accept further contributions
       for existing Participants, under a Contract.

       The discontinuance of  contributions on a  Participant's behalf does  not
       otherwise  affect his rights under the Contracts. He may make withdrawals
       from his  Accumulation  Account--for transfer,  for  the purchase  of  an
       annuity  or for  any other purpose--just  as if  contributions were still
       being made for  him. However, if  contributions under a  Program are  not
       made  for a  Participant for  a specified  period of  time (24  months in
       certain states,  36  months  in  others)  and  the  total  value  of  his
       Accumulation  Accounts  is  at or  below  a specified  amount  ($1,000 in
       certain states, $2,000 in others),  Prudential may elect to cancel  those
       Accumulation  Accounts unless  prohibited by  the retirement arrangement,
       and pay the Participant their value  (less the annual account charge)  as
       of the date of cancellation.
   10. TRANSFER PAYMENTS
   
       a. Unless restricted by the retirement
arrangement under which a Participant is covered, upon the receipt by Prudential
          of  a  duly  completed  written  transfer  request  form  or  properly
          authorized telephone  transfer  request,  all  or  a  portion  of  the
          Participant's  Accumulation  Account  in  VCA-10,  VCA-11,  or  in any
          Subaccount of  VCA-24  will  be  transferred  to  another  Account  or
          Subaccount,  fixed rate option or to  a Companion Contract that covers
          him. There is no minimum transfer  amount. As of the day the  transfer
          request  is received,  the Participant's  Accumulation Account  in the
          Account or Subaccount from which the transfer is made will be  reduced
          by  the  number  of  Units  obtained  by  dividing  the  amount  to be
          transferred by the Unit Value for that day. If the transfer is made to
          another Account or Subaccount as of the same day, the number of  Units
          credited  to the  Participant in  that Account  or Subaccount  will be
          increased by means of a  similar calculation. Prudential reserves  the
          right  to limit  the frequency of  these transfers.  All transfers are
          subject to the terms and conditions  set forth in this Prospectus  and
          in the Contract(s) covering a Participant. For example, many Contracts
          may  preclude  transfers from  the  Companion Contract  or  fixed rate
          option into  non-equity investment  options that  are defined  in  the
          Contract as "competing" with the general account options in investment
          characteristics.  If such  transfers are precluded,  the Contract will
          further require that amounts  transferred from the Companion  Contract
          or  fixed rate option into non-competing  investment options such as a
          stock fund  may not  for  90 days  thereafter  be transferred  into  a
          "competing" option.
    

   
          Different  procedures may  apply for  Contracts under  which an entity
          other than Prudential provides record-keeping services. See  "Modified
          Procedures,"  page  28.  Although  there is  presently  no  charge for
          transfers, Prudential reserves the right to impose such charges in the
          future.
    

   
          Participants in certain Programs may  be able to effect transfers  and
          exchanges by telephone or telecopy. Such privileges are available only
          if  state law permits,  if the Contract-holder has  so elected, and if
          the eligible  Participant  has authorized  telephone  and/or  telecopy
          transactions on an approved form obtained from the Contract-holder. In
          the  case  of a  Contract used  to fund  a Deferred  Compensation Plan
          established under Section 457 of  the Internal Revenue Code, if  state
          law  permits  and  the Prudential  consents,  the  Contract-holder may
          provide  authorization  for  telephone  transfers  on  behalf  of  all
          Participants  under the Contract. Prudential,  the Accounts, and their
          agents
    

                                       25
<PAGE>
   
          will  not  be  liable  for  following  instructions  communicated   by
          telephone  that it  reasonably believes  to be  genuine. All telephone
          requests will be  recorded for  the protection of  the Participant  or
          Contract-holder,  and callers will be  asked to provide their personal
          identification number. During times of unusual market activity, it may
          be difficult  to  transmit  requests by  telephone  or  telecopy.  The
          telephone  and  telecopy  transfer  and  exchange  privileges  may  be
          discontinued  at  any  time  as  to  some  or  all  Participants   and
          Contract-holders.
    

   
       b. A Contract may include a provision that,
          upon  discontinuance of  contributions for all  Participants under the
          Contract or  for  all Participants  of  an employer  covered  under  a
          Contract   (see   "Discontinuance  of   Contributions,"   above),  the
          Contract-holder may request Prudential to make transfer payments  from
          VCA-10,  VCA-11 or any Subaccount of  VCA-24 to a designated alternate
          funding agency. If  the Contract  is used in  connection with  certain
          non-qualified  annuity  arrangements,  certain  tax-deferred annuities
          subject to Section 403(b) of the  Code, or with IRAs, Prudential  will
          promptly  notify each Participant  and each beneficiary  of a deceased
          Participant for whom  an Accumulation Account  remains in force  under
          the  Contract-holder's Program that such  a request has been received.
          Within thirty days of receipt of such notice, each recipient may elect
          in writing on  a form approved  by Prudential to  have his Account  in
          VCA-10,  VCA-11  or  any  Subaccount  of  VCA-24,  transferred  to the
          alternate funding agency. If he does  not so elect, his Accounts  will
          continue  in force under the Contract. The Accumulation Account of any
          Participant or beneficiary who does so elect will be cancelled as of a
          "transfer  date,"  which  is  the   business  day  specified  in   the
          Contract-holder's  request or  90 days  after Prudential  receives the
          request,  whichever  is  later.  The  product  of  the  Units  in  the
          Participant's  Accumulation Accounts immediately prior to cancellation
          and the  appropriate  Unit  Value  on  the  transfer  date,  less  the
          applicable   deferred  sales  and  annual  account  charges,  will  be
          transferred to the designated funding agency in cash, securities  held
          in VCA-10 and VCA-11, or both.
    

       c. Contributions may be discontinued for all
          Participants  under a Contract or for  all Participants of an employer
          covered  under  the  Contract  used  in  connection  with  a  deferred
          compensation  plan subject to  Section 457 of the  Code due to certain
          circumstances, such as a change in any law or regulation, which  would
          have  an adverse effect  on Prudential in fulfilling  the terms of the
          Contract.  If  contributions  are  so  discontinued,  Prudential   may
          initiate  transfer payments from  VCA-10, VCA-11 or  any Subaccount of
          VCA-24 to an alternate funding agency.  The transfer would be made  as
          described in paragraph b. above.

          Under  certain types of retirement arrangements, the Retirement Equity
          Act of  1984 requires  that  in the  case  of a  married  Participant,
          certain  requests for transfer payments (other than those described in
          paragraph a. above) must  include the consent  of the Participant  and
          spouse  and  must  be notarized  or  witnessed by  an  authorized plan
          representative.

   11. EXCHANGE OFFER INTO MEDLEY

       Certain Contract-holders in  The Prudential  Variable Contract  Account-2
       ("VCA-2")  may  be offered  an opportunity  to exchange  their retirement
       program's investment  in  VCA-2  for  Units  of  VCA-10,  VCA-11  or  the
       Subaccounts of VCA-24.

       Participants in plans of VCA-2 Contract-holders that accept this exchange
       offer  have  the  option  of  exchanging  their  interests  in  VCA-2 for
       interests in VCA-10 and  VCA-11 or any of  the Subaccounts of VCA-24.  In
       such  an exchange,  any years  of participation  credited to  those VCA-2
       Participants under VCA-2  contracts will  be counted as  years of  MEDLEY
       Program  participation.  In addition,  no deferred  sales charge  will be
       applied to withdrawals from VCA-10,  VCA-11 or the Subaccounts of  VCA-24
       until a Participant has withdrawn an amount of contributions equal to the
       amount transferred from VCA-2.

   12. EXCHANGE OFFER OUT OF MEDLEY

   
       Prudential  is  offering The  Prudential  Institutional Fund  ("PIF"), an
       open-end management  investment  company  consisting  of  seven  separate
       portfolios,  as  an alternative  investment  vehicle for  existing MEDLEY
       Contract-holders. If the Contract-holder elects to make PIF available  to
       its  Participants, Participants will  be given the  opportunity to direct
       new contributions  to PIF.  Participants will  also be  provided a  fixed
       period  of time (an "open window") at least 60 days in length to exchange
       any or all amounts in  their current variable investment accounts  (under
       VCA-10, VCA-11 or VCA-24) for shares of PIF without the imposition of the
       deferred   sales   charge   that   may   otherwise   be   applicable   to
    

                                       26
<PAGE>
       withdrawals  from  those  accounts  under   the  MEDLEY  Program.  If   a
       Participant  exchanges all the MEDLEY Program accounts for shares of PIF,
       the annual account charge, which is assessed at the end of each  calendar
       year, may be deducted from the Participant's PIF account(s).

       Prudential  will  advise  each  Contract-holder of  the  timing  of their
       particular open window, but all such open windows will be for at least 60
       days.

       Before deciding whether to exchange any  or all of their existing  MEDLEY
       accounts  for shares of  PIF, Participants should  carefully read the PIF
       prospectus. Participants  should  understand  that PIF  is  a  registered
       management  investment company  (i.e., mutual  fund) offered  directly to
       qualified plans, certain institutional investors and others. It is not  a
       funding  vehicle  for  variable  annuity  contracts.  Thus,  Participants
       investing in PIF will not have the features of an annuity contract,  such
       as a minimum death benefit or certain annuity-related provisions, as they
       do   under  the  MEDLEY  Program.  These  features  may  be  obtained  by
       transferring from PIF to the companion fixed dollar annuity contract.

       In Prudential's opinion, there should be no adverse tax consequences if a
       Participant  in  a  qualified  retirement  arrangement,  in  a   deferred
       compensation  plan  under  Section  457 or  in  an  individual retirement
       annuity under  Section 408  of  the Internal  Revenue  Code of  1986,  as
       amended,  elects to exchange amounts  in the Participants' current MEDLEY
       account(s) for shares of PIF.

       Furthermore, exchanges will  be effected from  a 403(b) annuity  contract
       (Tax  Deferred  Annuity  funds under  the  MEDLEY Program)  to  a Section
       403(b)(7) custodial account  (Tax Deferred  Annuity funds  under PIF)  so
       that   such  transactions  will  not  constitute  taxable  distributions.
       However, Section 403(b) Participants under  the MEDLEY Program should  be
       aware  that there may be more restrictive rules on early withdrawals from
       Section 403(b)(7) custodial accounts under PIF.

   
       Prudential does not intend to extend this exchange offer out of MEDLEY to
       Participants under  any Non-Qualified  Combination Contract  issued to  a
       plan  covering employees  that share a  common employer  or are otherwise
       associated. Any  MEDLEY  Contract  that is  held  under  a  non-qualified
       arrangement  is subject to taxation as an annuity Contract. Any permitted
       exchange of amounts under  such MEDLEY Contract to  shares of PIF may  be
       treated  for tax purposes as a taxable withdrawal up to the amount of the
       investment income  earned  in  the  MEDLEY  Contract.  In  addition,  the
       exchange  may constitute a  premature withdrawal that is  subject to a 10
       percent tax penalty of the amount exchanged which is includable in income
       (i.e., the investment earnings exchanged).  However, if the owner of  the
       MEDLEY  Contract is not a natural person and the investment income on the
       Contract is currently taxable each year  to such owner, there will be  no
       added  tax incurred if such  an owner decides to  exchange funds from the
       MEDLEY Contract to shares of PIF.
    

       Contract-holders and Participants are  encouraged to consult a  qualified
       tax advisor for complete tax information and advice.

   13. LOANS

   
       The   loans  described  in  this   Section  are  generally  available  to
       Participants in  401(a) plans  and 403(b)  programs that  are subject  to
       ERISA.  The interest rate and other terms  and conditions of the loan may
       vary from program to program, and it is the responsibility of the program
       trustee or fiduciary to ensure that the interest rate and other terms and
       conditions of the loan comply with all program qualification requirements
       including the ERISA regulations.  In addition to  the loans described  in
       this  section, Participants  in 403(b)  programs, including  programs not
       subject to  ERISA, may  be able  to obtain  loans under  their  Companion
       Contract and should consult their employer or Prudential.
    

   
       The   loans  described  in  this  section,  which  involve  the  variable
       investment options,  work  as follows.  The  minimum loan  amount  is  as
       specified   in  the  Participant's  Program,  or  if  not  specified,  as
       determined by Prudential. The  maximum loan amount is  the lesser of  (a)
       $50,000,  reduced by the highest outstanding  balance of loans during the
       one-year period immediately preceding the date of the loan or (b) 50%  of
       the value of the Participant's vested interest in his or her Accumulation
       Accounts.  In the  loan application,  the Contract-holder  (or in certain
       cases, the Participant) designates the Accumulation Account(s) from which
       the  loan   amount  is   deducted.   Borrowing,  therefore,   reduces   a
       Participant's  Accumulation Accounts. To repay  the loan, the Participant
       makes periodic payments of  interest plus a  portion of principal.  Those
       payments  are  invested  in the  Accounts  or Subaccounts  chosen  by the
       Participant. The  Participant's  Program  may  specify  the  Accumulation
       Accounts  from  which he  may  borrow and  into  which repayments  may be
       invested.
    

       The maximum loan amount referred to above is imposed by federal tax  law.
       That limit, however,

                                       27
<PAGE>
       applies  to all loans from any qualified retirement plan of the employer.
       Since Prudential cannot monitor a Participant's loan activity relating to
       other  plans   offered  to   Participants,   it  is   the   Participant's
       responsibility  to do  so. Provided that  a Participant  adheres to these
       limitations, the loan will not be treated as a taxable distribution.  If,
       however, the Participant defaults on the loan by, for example, failing to
       make  required payments, the defaulted loan  amount (as described in loan
       disclosure information  provided  to  a borrowing  Participant)  will  be
       treated   as  a  taxable  distribution   and  Prudential  will  send  the
       appropriate tax information to the  Participant and the Internal  Revenue
       Service.  For information as to how  the deferred sales charge applies to
       loans, see "Deferred Sales Charge." page 18.

   
       Prudential charges up  to a $75  loan application fee,  payable by  check
       submitted  with the  application. Prudential also  charges up  to $25 per
       year as a loan maintenance fee for recordkeeping and other administrative
       services provided in connection with the loan. This charge is  guaranteed
       not  to increase during the term of any  loan and is not greater than the
       average expected cost of the services required to maintain the loan. This
       annualized loan maintenance charge will  be prorated based on the  number
       of  full months  that the loan  is outstanding.  The Accumulation Account
       from which this charge  is deducted is determined  in the same manner  as
       with the annual account charge. See "Annual Account Charge," page 19.
    

   
   14. MODIFIED PROCEDURES
    

   
       Under  certain Contracts, the Contract-holder or  a third party acting on
       their behalf  provides record-keeping  services that  would otherwise  be
       performed  by Prudential. Such Contracts  may require procedures somewhat
       different than  those set  forth in  this Prospectus.  For example,  such
       Contracts  may require that  contribution allocation requests, withdrawal
       requests, and/  or  transfer  requests  be  directed  to  the  Contract's
       record-keeper   rather   than  Prudential.   The  record-keeper   is  the
       Contract-holder's   agent,   not    Prudential's   agent.    Accordingly,
       transactions  will be processed and priced as of the end of the valuation
       period in which Prudential receives appropriate instructions and/or funds
       from the record-keeper. Any such  different procedures will be set  forth
       in the Contract.
    

   
       These  contracts  may have  modified  deferred sales  charges  and annual
       account charges. See "Modification of Charges," page 19.
    

       THE ANNUITY PERIOD

   1.  ELECTING THE ANNUITY DATE AND THE FORM OF
       ANNUITY

       Subject to the  restrictions on withdrawals  from tax-deferred  annuities
       subject  to Section 403(b) of the  Code, (see "Withdrawal (Redemption) of
       Contributions," page 21), and subject to the provisions of the retirement
       arrangement that covers him, a Participant may elect at any time to  have
       all  or a  part of his  interest in  VCA-10, VCA-11 or  any Subaccount of
       VCA-24 used to purchase a  fixed-dollar annuity under the Contracts.  The
       Contracts  do not  provide for  annuities that  vary with  the investment
       results of VCA-10, VCA-11 or any Subaccount of VCA-24.

       WITHDRAWALS FROM VCA-10, VCA-11 OR ANY SUBACCOUNT OF VCA-24 THAT ARE USED
       TO PURCHASE A  FIXED-DOLLAR ANNUITY  UNDER THE CONTRACTS  BECOME PART  OF
       PRUDENTIAL'S  GENERAL  ACCOUNT,  WHICH  SUPPORTS  INSURANCE  AND  ANNUITY
       OBLIGATIONS. SIMILARLY, AMOUNTS  ALLOCATED TO THE  COMPANION CONTRACT  OR
       THE FIXED RATE OPTION UNDER THE NON-QUALIFIED COMBINATION CONTRACT BECOME
       PART   OF  PRUDENTIAL'S   GENERAL  ACCOUNT.  BECAUSE   OF  EXEMPTIVE  AND
       EXCLUSIONARY PROVISIONS, INTERESTS IN THE  GENERAL ACCOUNT HAVE NOT  BEEN
       REGISTERED  UNDER  THE SECURITIES  ACT OF  1933 ("1933  ACT") NOR  IS THE
       GENERAL ACCOUNT REGISTERED AS AN  INVESTMENT COMPANY UNDER THE 1940  ACT.
       ACCORDINGLY,  NEITHER THE GENERAL  ACCOUNT NOR ANY  INTERESTS THEREIN ARE
       GENERALLY SUBJECT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE 1933 OR 1940 ACTS AND WE  HAVE
       BEEN ADVISED THAT THE STAFF OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION HAS
       NOT  REVIEWED  THE DISCLOSURES  IN THIS  PROSPECTUS  WHICH RELATE  TO THE
       FIXED-DOLLAR  ANNUITY  THAT  MAY   BE  PURCHASED  UNDER  THE   CONTRACTS.
       DISCLOSURES  REGARDING THE FIXED-DOLLAR ANNUITY  AND THE GENERAL ACCOUNT,
       HOWEVER, MAY BE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN GENERALLY APPLICABLE PROVISIONS OF THE
       FEDERAL SECURITIES  LAWS RELATING  TO THE  ACCURACY AND  COMPLETENESS  OF
       STATEMENTS MADE IN PROSPECTUSES.

   
       In electing to have an annuity purchased, the Participant may select from
       the  forms of annuity described  below, unless the retirement arrangement
       covering him provides otherwise.  The annuity is  purchased on the  first
       day of the month following receipt by Prudential of proper written notice
       on a form approved by Prudential that the Participant has elected to have
       an  annuity purchased, or on  the first day of  any subsequent month that
       the Participant designates. The  first monthly annuity payment  generally
       will  be  made within  one  month of  the date  on  which the  annuity is
       purchased.
    

                                       28
<PAGE>
       Under certain types of retirement arrangements, the Retirement Equity Act
       of 1984  requires that  in the  case of  a married  Participant,  certain
       elections of payouts which are not qualified joint and survivor annuities
       must include the consent and signatures of the Participant and spouse and
       must  be notarized or  witnessed by an  authorized plan representative. A
       "qualified  joint  and   survivor  annuity"   is  an   annuity  for   the
       Participant's  lifetime with  at least 50%  of the amount  payable to the
       Participant continued after his death to his spouse, if then living.

       If the dollar amount  of the first monthly  annuity payment is less  than
       the  minimum amount  specified in  the Contract,  Prudential may,  at its
       option and in  lieu of  making any  annuity payment  whatsoever, pay  the
       person who would receive the annuity a one-sum cash payment in the amount
       that would otherwise have been applied to purchase the annuity.

       Once  annuity payments begin, the  annuitant cannot surrender his annuity
       benefit and receive a one-sum payment in lieu thereof.

    2. AVAILABLE FORMS OF ANNUITY

       Option 1--Life  annuity  with  payments certain.  This  is  an  immediate
       annuity  payable monthly  during the lifetime  of the  annuitant with the
       guarantee that if, at the death of the annuitant, payments have been made
       for less  than the  period-certain (which  may  be 60,  120, 180  or  240
       months,  as selected by the annuitant), they will be continued during the
       remainder of the selected period to his beneficiary.

       Option 2--Annuity-certain. This is  an immediate annuity payable  monthly
       for a period-certain which may be 60, 120, 180 or 240 months, as selected
       by  the  annuitant.  If  the annuitant  dies  during  the period-certain,
       payments in the same amount the annuitant was receiving will be continued
       to his beneficiary, but no further payments are payable after the end  of
       the period-certain.

       Option  3--Joint and survivor  annuity with payments  certain. This is an
       immediate annuity payable  monthly during the  lifetime of the  annuitant
       with  payments continued after his death  to his contingent annuitant, if
       surviving, for  the  latter's  lifetime. Until  the  selected  number  of
       payments  certain  have  been  paid,  payments  made  to  the  contingent
       annuitant after the annuitant's death are the same as those the annuitant
       was receiving.  Thereafter,  the  payments continued  to  the  contingent
       annuitant  will  be  a  percentage  of the  monthly  amount  paid  to the
       annuitant such as 33%, 50%, 66% or 100% as selected by the annuitant (the
       amounts of  each payment  made to  the  annuitant will  be lower  as  the
       percentage  he selects to be paid to the contingent annuitant is higher).
       If both the annuitant and the contingent annuitant die during the period-
       certain (which may  be 60, 120,  180 or  240 months, as  selected by  the
       annuitant),  payments  will  be  continued during  the  remainder  of the
       period-certain to the properly designated beneficiary.

       Other forms  of  annuity  may  be  available  under  the  Contracts.  The
       retirement  arrangement  under  which  the  Participant  is  covered  may
       restrict the forms of annuity that a Participant may elect.

       If the dollar  amount of the  first monthly payment  to a beneficiary  is
       less  than  the  minimum amount  specified  in  the Contract,  or  if the
       beneficiary is other than a natural person receiving payments in his  own
       right,  Prudential  may elect  to pay  the commuted  value of  the unpaid
       payments-certain in one sum.

    3. PURCHASING THE ANNUITY

       No deferred  sales charge  is deducted  from contributions  withdrawn  to
       purchase  an annuity.  If, as  a result  of a  withdrawal to  purchase an
       annuity, all of the Participant's Accumulation Accounts under the Program
       are reduced to zero, the full  annual account charge is deducted,  unless
       the  annuity becomes  effective on January  1 of any  year. The resulting
       amount, less any applicable taxes  on annuity considerations, is  applied
       to  the appropriate annuity  purchase rate determined  in accordance with
       the schedule  in the  Contract  at the  time  the annuity  is  purchased.
       However,  Prudential  may determine  monthly  payments from  schedules of
       annuity purchase rates providing for larger payments than the rates shown
       in the Contract.

       The schedule of  annuity purchase rates  in a Contract  is guaranteed  by
       Prudential  for ten years from the date the Contract is issued. If at any
       time after a Contract has been in  effect for ten years, the schedule  of
       annuity  purchase rates is modified,  the modification is also guaranteed
       for ten years. A  change in the schedule  of annuity purchase rates  used
       for  an annuity-certain with 180 payments or less, as described in Option
       2, will  apply only  to  amounts added  to a  Participant's  Accumulation
       Account  after the date  of change. A  change in any  other schedule will
       apply to all amounts in a Participant's Accumulation Account.

ASSIGNMENT

Unless contrary to applicable law, the  right to any payment under the  Contract
is neither assignable nor subject to the claim of any creditor.

                                       29
<PAGE>
CHANGES IN THE CONTRACTS

   
The  Non-Qualified Contract provides that annuity  purchase rates may be changed
every five years. Furthermore, each Contract provides that after it has been  in
effect  for two years  Prudential may change  the annual account  charge and the
table of  deferred sales  charges. Any  change in  the table  of deferred  sales
charges  generally will apply only to the withdrawal of those contributions made
on or after the  date the change takes  effect. For this purpose,  contributions
shall be deemed to be withdrawn on a first-in, first-out basis.
    

Each  Contract also  provides that after  it has  been in effect  for five years
Prudential may  change  the deduction  from  assets  of VCA-10,  VCA-11  or  any
Subaccount of VCA-24 for administrative expenses, the terms and conditions under
which a deferred sales charge is made, the minimum amount of any contribution to
VCA-10, VCA-11 or any Subaccount of VCA-24 that is made other than on a regular,
periodic basis and the terms and amount of any transfer or withdrawal, provided,
however,  that any such change  must be permissible under  the provisions of the
1940 Act. The changes described in this  paragraph will apply to all amounts  in
Participants' Accumulation Accounts, whether credited before or after the change
is made.

The  changes discussed in the preceding  two paragraphs may not become effective
earlier than 90 days after notice of  them has been sent to the  Contract-holder
and  to each person to  whom the change applies  who has an Accumulation Account
under the Contract, other than persons covered by a Contract used in  connection
with  deferred  compensation plans  under Section  457 of  the Code  and persons
covered  by  a   Contract  used   in  connection   with  non-qualified   annuity
arrangements.

A  Contract may be changed  at any time by  agreement between Prudential and the
Contract-holder; however, no change  may be made  that adversely affects  rights
with  respect to  annuities purchased before  the effective date  of the change,
unless the consent of each affected annuitant is obtained.

Prudential reserves the right to substitute  the shares of any other  registered
investment  company for the shares of the Fund held in any of the Subaccounts of
VCA-24. Current law requires approval by the Securities and Exchange  Commission
and  notification  to the  holders of  the Contracts  of any  such substitution.
Prudential also reserves  the right  to operate VCA-24  as a  different form  of
registered  investment company  or as  an unregistered  entity, to  transfer the
Contracts to  a  different  separate  account, or  to  discontinue  any  of  the
Subaccounts  of  the Account,  all to  the extent  permitted by  applicable law.
Prudential may also amend  any Contract to the  extent necessary to comply  with
any applicable law or regulation.

REPORTS

Participants  will be sent, at least annually, reports showing as of a specified
date the  number  of  Units credited  to  them  in VCA-10,  VCA-11  and  in  the
Subaccounts  of VCA-24  and the appropriate  Unit Values.  Each Participant will
also be sent semi-annual reports showing the financial condition of the Accounts
and  the  Subaccounts  with  their   corresponding  Fund  Portfolios,  and   the
investments held in each.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

Performance  information for VCA-10,  VCA-11, and the  Subaccounts of VCA-24 may
appear in advertising  and reports to  current and prospective  Contract-holders
and  Participants.  Performance information  is  based on  historical investment
experience of those investment options and does not indicate or represent future
performance.

Total returns are based on the overall dollar or percentage change in value of a
hypothetical investment. Total return quotations reflect changes in unit  values
and the deduction of applicable charges.

A  cumulative total return reflects performance over a stated period of time. An
average annual total return reflects the hypothetical annually compounded return
that would have produced the same cumulative total return if the performance had
been constant over the entire period.

   
VCA-11 may  also  advertise  its  current and  effective  yield.  Current  yield
reflects  the  income generated  by  an investment  in  VCA-11 over  a specified
seven-day period. Effective yield is calculated in a similar manner except  that
income earned is assumed to be reinvested.
    

Comparative performance information may from time to time be included in reports
or  advertising, including,  but not  limited to,  data from  Morningstar, Inc.,
Lipper Analytical  Services, Inc.,  the Standard  & Poor's  500 Composite  Price
Index,  Lehman  Brothers indices  and other  commonly  used indices  or industry
publications.

See "Performance Information"  in the  Statement of  Additional Information  for
recent performance information.

PARTICIPATION IN DIVISIBLE SURPLUS

   
A  mutual life insurance company differs from  a stock life insurance company in
that it has no stockholders who are the owners of the enterprise. Accordingly, a
Contract-holder  of  Prudential  participates   in  the  divisible  surplus   of
Prudential,  according  to the  annual  determination of  Prudential's  Board of
Directors as to the portion, if any, of the divisible surplus which has  accrued
on  the Contract. In the case of the Contracts described in this Prospectus, any
surplus determined to be payable as  a dividend is credited to Participants.  No
assurance  can be given as to the amount of divisible surplus, if any, that will
be available for distribution under
    

                                       30
<PAGE>
   
these Contracts in the future. There were no payments of divisible surplus  made
under the Contracts in 1994, 1993 or 1992.
    

                               FEDERAL TAX STATUS

The following discussion is general in nature. It is not intended as tax advice.
Nor  does it consider  any applicable state  or other tax  laws. A qualified tax
adviser should be consulted for complete information and advice.

TAXES ON  PRUDENTIAL. The  Accounts are  not considered  separate taxpayers  for
purposes  of  the  Internal  Revenue  Code.  As  distinguished  from  most other
registered investment companies--which are separate taxpayers-- the earnings  of
the  Accounts (and Subaccounts) are  taxed as part of  the income of Prudential.
Under the current provisions  of the Code, Prudential  does not expect to  incur
Federal  income taxes  on earnings  of the  Accounts or  the Subaccounts  to the
extent the earnings are credited under  the Contracts. Based on this, no  charge
is being made currently against the Accounts for Federal income taxes.

QUALIFIED RETIREMENT ARRANGEMENTS USING THE CONTRACTS. The Contracts may be used
in connection with qualified pension and profit sharing plans, plans established
by  self-employed  persons ("Keogh  plans"),  simplified employee  pension plans
("SEPS"), individual retirement plan accounts ("IRAs"), and retirement  programs
for certain persons known as Section 403(b) annuity plans.

The provisions of the Code that apply to the retirement arrangements that may be
funded  by the Contracts are  complex and Participants are  advised to consult a
qualified tax adviser. In general,  however, assuming that the requirements  and
limitations  of the provisions of the Code  applicable to the particular type of
plan are adhered to  by Participants and employers,  contributions made under  a
retirement arrangement funded by a Contract are deductible (or not includible in
income)  up to certain amounts each year. Further, under the retirement programs
with which  the Contracts  may be  used,  Federal income  tax currently  is  not
imposed, subject to certain limitations, upon the investment income and realized
gains  earned by  the Accounts and  Subaccounts in which  the contributions have
been  invested  until  a  distribution   or  withdrawal  is  received.  When   a
distribution  or withdrawal is received, either as  a lump sum, an annuity or as
regular payments in accordance with a systematic withdrawal arrangement, all  or
a  portion of  the distribution  or withdrawal  is normally  taxable as ordinary
income. In some cases,  the tax on  lump sum distributions may  be limited by  a
special  income-averaging rule.  The effect  of Federal  income taxation depends
largely upon the type of retirement  plan and a generalized description,  beyond
that given here, is not particularly useful. Careful review of the provisions of
the Code applicable to the particular type of plan is necessary.

As noted above, withdrawals or distributions are taxable. Furthermore, premature
distributions  or  withdrawals may  be subject  to  a penalty  tax. Participants
contemplating a withdrawal should consult a qualified tax adviser. In  addition,
Federal  tax  laws  impose  restrictions  on  withdrawals  from  Section  403(b)
annuities.  See   "Withdrawal   (Redemption)   of   Contributions,"   page   21.
Distributions are subject to certain minimum distribution requirements.

The  Contracts may be  used in connection with  deferred compensation plans that
meet the requirements of Section 457 of  the Code. The tax rules for such  plans
involve,   among  other   things,  limitations  on   contributions  and  minimum
distribution requirements.  Tax-exempt organizations  or governmental  employers
considering  the  use of  the Contracts  to fund  or otherwise  provide deferred
compensation to  their employees  should consult  with a  qualified tax  adviser
concerning  the  applicability of  Section 457  to  their plans  as well  as the
specific requirements. Reference is also made to the discussion below of Section
72(u) of the Code which may be applicable in certain circumstances.

Subject to the exceptions discussed below with respect to Section 403(b) annuity
plans and  certain  governmental  or  church  plans,  distributions  from  IRAs,
qualified  retirement arrangements and deferred compensation plans that meet the
requirements of Section 457 of  the Code must begin by  April 1 of the  calendar
year  following  the year  in  which the  Participant  attains age  70  1/2 (the
"Required Beginning Date").  Distributions from  a Section  403(b) annuity  plan
attributable  to benefits  accruing after  December 31,  1986 must  begin by the
Required Beginning Date. The  Required Beginning Date  for distributions from  a
governmental  or church plan is the later of  April 1 of the calendar year after
the calendar year in which  the Participant attains age  70 1/2 or the  calendar
year  in which the Participant retires.  In general, distributions that are made
after the Required Beginning Date must be made in the form of an annuity for the
life of  the Participant  or the  lives of  the Participant  and his  designated
beneficiary, or over a period that is not longer than the life expectancy of the
Participant  or  the life  expectancies of  the  Participant and  his designated
beneficiary.

Distributions to beneficiaries are also  subject to minimum distribution  rules.
If  a Participant dies before his entire interest in his Accumulation Account(s)
has been distributed,  his remaining interest  must be distributed  at least  as
rapidly  as under the method of distribution being used as of the date of death.
If the  Participant dies  before distributions  have begun  (or are  treated  as
having  begun)  the  entire  interest  in  his  Accumulation  Accounts  must  be
distributed by December 31 of the calendar year containing the fifth anniversary
of the Participant's death. Alternatively, if there is a designated beneficiary,
the designated beneficiary may elect to receive payments beginning no later than
December  31  of   the  calendar   year  immediately  following   the  year   in

                                       31
<PAGE>
which the Participant dies and continuing for the beneficiary's life or a period
not  exceeding the  beneficiary's life expectancy  (except that  with respect to
distributions from a deferred  compensation plan subject to  Section 457 of  the
Code,  such period cannot exceed 15 years). Special rules apply to the spouse of
a deceased Participant.

In addition to  the above rules,  with respect to  a deferred compensation  plan
subject  to Section  457 of the  Code, any  distribution that is  payable over a
period of more than  one year can only  be made in substantially  non-increasing
amounts no less frequently than annually.

An  excise tax  applies to  Participants or beneficiaries  who fail  to take the
minimum distribution in any calendar year.

NON-QUALIFIED  ARRANGEMENTS  USING  THE  CONTRACTS.  The  Contracts   constitute
variable  annuity  contracts.  Accordingly,  no  tax  should  be  payable  by  a
Participant as  a result  of any  increase  in the  value of  his share  of  the
investment income and realized gain earned by the Account or Subaccount in which
his  accumulated premium  payments are held.  Generally, amounts  are taxed when
received, either as an  annuity or as a  withdrawal before the annuity  starting
date.  For these purposes,  loans against the  Contracts or the  pledging of the
Contracts are treated as withdrawals.

Amounts withdrawn before the annuity starting date are treated for tax  purposes
first  as being  withdrawals of  investment income,  rather than  withdrawals of
premium payments, until all investment income earned by a Participant's  Account
or  Subaccount has  been withdrawn.  Thus, a  Participant will  be taxed  on the
amount he withdraws before  he starts receiving annuity  payments to the  extent
that the cash value of his Contract, unreduced by the withdrawal charge, exceeds
his premium payments.

   
In addition to the ordinary income tax, the Code further provides that premature
withdrawals  that are includible in income will be subject to a penalty tax. The
amount of the penalty is 10 percent  of the amount withdrawn that is  includable
in  income.  Some withdrawals  will be  exempt from  the penalty.  These include
withdrawals (1) made on or after the  date on which the Participant reaches  age
59  1/2, (2) made on or after the  death of the Participant, (3) attributable to
the Participant becoming disabled (as defined in Code Section 72(m)), (4) in the
form of level annuity payments under a  lifetime annuity, (5) in the form of  an
immediate  annuity (an annuity  which has been purchased  with a single purchase
payment and under which annuity payments begin  no later than one year from  the
date  of purchase), or (6) in the  form of substantially equal periodic payments
(made at least annually) for the life expectancy of the Participant or the joint
life expectancies of the Participant and his designated beneficiary.
    
   
Different tax rules apply to the receipt of annuity payments or regular payments
in accordance with a  systematic withdrawal arrangement  by a Participant  after
the  annuity  starting date.  A  portion of  each  payment he  receives  under a
Contract will be treated as a  partial return of his post-tax premium  payments,
if  any, and will not  be taxable. The remaining portion  of the payment will be
taxed as ordinary income. Exactly how  each payment is divided into taxable  and
nontaxable  portions depends upon (i) the period over which annuity payments are
expected to  be received,  which in  turn is  governed by  the form  of  annuity
selected  and, where a lifetime annuity is chosen, by the life expectancy of the
annuitant, payee or, in the case of  a joint and survivor life annuity,  payees,
or  (ii) whether you  elect to have  regular payments made  in accordance with a
systematic withdrawal  plan over  a fixed  period  of time  or in  fixed  dollar
amounts.  Once a Participant has recovered all his premium payments, the balance
of the annuity payments will be fully taxable.
    

Certain  minimum  distribution  requirements  apply   in  the  case  where   the
Participant dies before the entire interest in his annuity has been distributed.
Further,  certain transfers of an annuity for less than full compensation, E.G.,
a gift, will trigger tax on the gain in the Contract.

Special rules under section 72(u) of the Code apply to the Contracts if held  by
a  person who  is not  a natural  person and  if not  covered by  one of several
exceptions. Under  these  rules,  if  a  Contract  is  held  by  a  corporation,
partnership, trust or similar nonnatural person, the income on the Contract each
year is treated as ordinary income received or accrued that year by the owner of
the  Contract.  Income on  the contract  is the  excess  of the  sum of  the net
surrender value of the Contract at the end of the taxable year plus any  amounts
distributed  for all years over the aggregate  amount of premiums paid under the
Contract minus amounts received under the  Contract that have not been  included
in  income. Exceptions  to these  rules include  contracts held  by a nonnatural
person as an  agent for a  natural person,  contracts acquired by  an estate  by
reason of the death of the decedent, contracts held under a qualified pension or
profit sharing plan, a section 403(b) annuity plan or individual retirement plan
(see discussion above) or contracts which provide for immediate annuities.

   
WITHHOLDING.  Generally, under a nonqualified annuity arrangement, or individual
retirement account or individual retirement annuity, unless a Participant elects
to the  contrary,  any  amounts  that  are  received  under  his  Contract  that
Prudential  reasonably  believes  are includable  in  gross income  tax  for tax
purposes will be subject to withholding to meet Federal income tax  obligations.
In the absence of an election by a Participant that Prudential should not do so,
it  will  withhold  from every  withdrawal  or annuity  payment  the appropriate
percentage of the amount of the  payment that Prudential reasonably believes  is
subject to withholding. In addition,
    

                                       32
<PAGE>
   
certain  distributions from qualified plans under  Section 401 or Section 403(b)
of the  Code, which  are not  directly  rolled over  or transferred  to  another
eligible  qualified plan, are subject to a mandatory 20% withholding for federal
income tax. The 20% withholding requirement does not apply to: (a) distributions
for the life or life expectancy of  the participant, or joint and last  survivor
expectancy of the participant and a designated beneficiary; or (b) distributions
for  a specified  period of ten  years or  more; or (c)  distributions which are
required  as  minimum  distributions.   Accordingly,  a  Participant  would   be
well-advised  to check the Contract-holder's  retirement arrangement and consult
with appropriate tax  advisers regarding  the current  state of  the law  before
making  a withdrawal. Prudential will  provide forms and instructions concerning
withholding. However,  amounts  that  are  received under  a  Contract  used  in
connection with a plan that is subject to Section 457 of the Code are treated as
wages  for  Federal  income  tax  purposes and  are,  thus,  subject  to general
withholding requirements.
    

                                 VOTING RIGHTS

   
Except for Participants  and beneficiaries  under Contracts  used in  connection
with  certain non-qualified annuity arrangements and deferred compensation plans
established under Section 457 of the Internal Revenue Code, each person who  has
an  Accumulation Account in VCA-10 or VCA-11, as  the case may be, has the right
to vote at meetings  of Participants in that  Account, and Prudential will  vote
the  shares of the Fund that it holds  in any Subaccount of VCA-24 in the manner
directed by persons who have  Accumulation Accounts in that Subaccount.  Holders
of  Contracts used in connection  with Section 457 plans  also have the right to
vote at meetings of Participants of VCA-10 and VCA-11, and Prudential will  vote
Fund  shares  held in  VCA-24  Subaccounts under  such  Contracts in  the manner
directed by the Contract-holders, to the extent that those Contracts are  funded
through the particular Account or Subaccount.
    

Persons  having voting rights with respect to  VCA-10 and VCA-11 are entitled to
vote in connection with the election  of the members of an Account's  Committee.
Committee  members are  not elected annually.  Beginning in  September 1988, all
Committee members  elected  by persons  having  voting rights  are  elected  for
indefinite  terms.  Vacancies  may be  filled  by  a majority  vote  of  all the
remaining Committee members,  provided that immediately  after filling any  such
vacancy,  at least two-thirds of the members then holding office shall have been
elected by persons having voting rights. Members elected by a Committee,  rather
than  by persons having voting rights, only  hold their positions until the next
meeting of persons having voting rights in respect to such Account. At that next
meeting, persons with voting rights fill the vacancy by electing a member for an
indefinite term.

Persons having VCA-10  and VCA-11  voting rights are  also entitled  to vote  in
connection  with  the  selection  by  the  Committee  of  an  independent public
accountant for the Account. However, such matter is not required to be submitted
annually. The  Committee  is  only  required to  submit  the  selection  of  the
accountant  for ratification or rejection if the Committee selects an accountant
other than the one whose selection was most recently ratified by persons  having
voting rights.

In addition, persons having VCA-10 and VCA-11 voting rights are entitled to vote
in connection with:

   a.  any amendments of the investment
management  agreement  between  Prudential  and the  Account  and  any  such new
       agreements negotiated by the Committee;

   b.  any changes in the fundamental investment
policies of the Account; and

   c.  any other matter requiring a vote of VCA-10 and
       VCA-11 Participants.

Instructions to  Prudential for  the  voting of  Fund  shares will  involve  the
following  matters: (1)  election of  the Board  of Directors  of the  Fund; (2)
ratification of the  independent accountant for  the Fund; (3)  approval of  the
investment  advisory agreement for  the Fund; (4) any  change in the fundamental
investment policy of a Portfolio in which  assets of a Subaccount of VCA-24  are
invested;  and (5) any other matter requiring  a vote of the shareholders of the
Fund. With  respect to  approval of  the investment  advisory agreement  or  any
change  in  a  Portfolio's  fundamental  investment  policy,  Participants  with
Accumulation Accounts in a Subaccount the  assets of which are invested in  such
Portfolio  will  vote with  other holders  of  shares in  such Portfolio  on the
matter, pursuant to the requirements of Rule 18f-2 under the 1940 Act.

The number of  votes which  a person  may cast  at meetings  of Participants  in
VCA-10  or VCA-11 is equal to the number of dollars in the Account and fractions
thereof credited  to him,  or,  in the  case of  holders  of Contracts  used  in
connection  with deferred compensation plans under  Section 457 of the Code, the
number of dollars and  fractions thereof that are  credited to the  Participants
under that contract, as of the record date.

Prudential  is entitled to vote the number  of votes and fractions thereof equal
to the number  of dollars and  fractions thereof  of its own  funds invested  in
either VCA-10 or VCA-11 as of the record date. Prudential will cast its votes in
the same proportions as all other votes represented at the meeting, in person or
by proxy.

Meetings  of Participants are  not required to  be held annually.  The Rules and
Regulations of both VCA-10  and VCA-11 provide that  meetings of persons  having
voting  rights  may be  called  by a  majority  of the  Committee.  An Account's
Committee is required to call a meeting  of persons having voting rights in  the
event that at

                                       33
<PAGE>
any time less than a majority of the members of such Committee holding office at
that  time were elected  by persons having  voting rights. Such  meeting must be
held within  60 days  unless the  Securities and  Exchange Commission  by  order
extends  such period. Each Committee must also  call a meeting of persons having
voting rights in  order to  submit the  selection of  the Account's  independent
public  accountant for  ratification or  rejection if  the Committee  selects an
accountant other than the accountant whose selection was most recently  ratified
by  persons with voting rights.  In addition, the Committee  is required to call
meetings of persons with voting rights in order to submit for a vote matters  on
which such persons are entitled to vote (as listed above).

For the purpose of determining the persons having voting rights in respect of an
Account  who  are  entitled to  notice  of and  to  vote at  such  meetings, the
Committee may fix, in advance, a record date which shall not be more than 70 nor
less than 10 days before the date of the meeting.

Votes may be cast either  in person or by proxy.  Persons entitled to vote  will
receive all proxy materials.

Each  person having an Accumulation  Account in a Subaccount  of VCA-24 may give
voting instructions to Prudential equal to the number of Fund shares represented
by the Subaccount Units  in his Accumulation Account.  Prudential will vote  the
shares  of the Fund that are attributable to assets of its own that it maintains
in  the  Subaccount,  or  to  any  shares  as  to  which  it  has  not  received
instructions,  in the same manner and proportion  as the shares for which it has
received instructions.

The number of votes for which each person may give Prudential instructions  will
be determined as of the record date for Fund shareholders chosen by the Board of
Directors  of the Fund.  Prudential will furnish  Participants with proper forms
and proxies to enable them to give it these instructions.

As defined by the 1940  Act and as referred to  elsewhere in this Prospectus,  a
majority  vote of persons having  voting rights in respect  of VCA-10, VCA-11 or
the Fund means (a) 67% or more of the votes of such persons present at a meeting
if more than 50% of all votes entitled to be cast are held by persons present in
person or represented  by proxy at  such meeting, or  (b) more than  50% of  all
votes entitled to be cast, whichever is less.

                              OTHER CONTRACTS ON A
                                 VARIABLE BASIS

In  addition  to  the  Contracts, Prudential  currently  issues  other  forms of
contracts on  a  variable basis.  At  present, contributions  under  such  other
contracts  are not held  in VCA-10, VCA-11  or any Subaccount  of VCA-24 but are
held in other separate accounts.

                                STATE REGULATION

Prudential is subject to regulation by the Department of Insurance of the  State
of  New Jersey as well  as by the insurance departments  of all the other states
and jurisdictions in  which it  does business.  Prudential must  file an  annual
statement  in  a  form  promulgated by  the  National  Association  of Insurance
Commissioners. This annual statement is reviewed and analyzed by the New  Jersey
Department, which makes an independent computation of Prudential's legal reserve
liabilities  and statutory  apportionments under its  outstanding contracts. New
Jersey law  requires  a  quinquennial  examination of  Prudential  to  be  made.
Examination involves extensive audit including, but not limited to, an inventory
check  of assets, sampling techniques to  check the performance by Prudential of
its contracts and an  examination of the manner  in which divisible surplus  has
been  apportioned and  distributed to  policyholders and  contract-holders. This
regulation does  not involve  any  supervision or  control over  the  investment
policies of either Account or over the selection of investments for them, except
for verification of the compliance of Prudential's investment portfolio with New
Jersey law. See "Investment restrictions imposed by state law," in the Statement
of Additional Information.

The  laws of  New Jersey  also contain  special provisions  which relate  to the
issuance and regulation of contracts on a variable basis. These laws set forth a
number of mandatory provisions which must be included in contracts on a variable
basis and prohibit such contracts from containing other specified provisions. No
variable contract may be issued for delivery in New Jersey prior to the  written
acknowledgement by the Department of Insurance of its filing. The Department may
initially  disapprove or  subsequently withdraw approval  of any  contract if it
contains  provisions  which   are  "unjust,   unfair,  inequitable,   ambiguous,
misleading,  likely to result in misrepresentation or contrary to law." Approval
can also be withheld or withdrawn if sales are solicited by communications which
involve misleading or inadequate descriptions of the provisions of the contract.

In addition to the annual statement referred to above, Prudential is required to
file with New Jersey and other states  a separate statement with respect to  the
operations  of all its variable contracts accounts, in a form promulgated by the
National Association of Insurance Commissioners.

                               LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Prudential is  engaged in  routine  litigation of  various  kinds which  in  its
judgment is not of material importance in relation to its total assets.

There is no litigation pending the outcome of which might have a material effect
on the operations of VCA-10, VCA-11, VCA-24 or the Fund.

                                    APPENDIX

Some of the terms used in  this Prospectus to describe the investment  objective
and policies of VCA-11 are further explained below.

The  term "money  market" refers  to the  marketplace composed  of the financial
institutions  which  handle  the  purchase  and  sale  of  liquid,   short-term,
high-grade  debt  instruments. The  money  market is  not  a single  entity, but
consists of numerous separate markets, each  of which deals in a different  type
of  short-term  debt  instrument.  These  include  U.S.  government obligations,
commercial paper, certificates  of deposit and  bankers' acceptances, which  are
generally referred to as money market instruments.

"U.S. Government obligations" are debt securities (including bills, certificates
of  indebtedness, notes, and bonds) issued by  the U.S. Treasury or issued by an
agency or instrumentality of the U.S. government which is established under  the
authority of an act of Congress. Such agencies or instrumentalities include, but
are  not limited to, the Federal National Mortgage Association, the Federal Farm
Credit Bank,  and  the Federal  Home  Loan  Bank. Although  all  obligations  of
agencies  and instrumentalities are not direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury,
payment of the interest and principal  on these obligations is generally  backed
directly  or indirectly by the U.S. government.  This support can range from the
backing of the  full faith and  credit of  the United States,  to U.S.  Treasury
guarantees, or to the backing solely of the issuing instrumentality itself.

"Bank  obligations" include (1) "Certificates of deposit" which are certificates
evidencing the indebtedness of a commercial  bank to repay funds deposited  with
it  for  a definite  period of  time (usually  from  14 days  to one  year); (2)
"Bankers' acceptances" which are credit instruments evidencing the obligation of
a bank  to  pay a  draft  which  has been  drawn  on  it by  a  customer.  These
instruments reflect the obligation both of the bank and of the drawer to pay the
face  amount of the instrument upon maturity;  and (3) "Time deposits" which are
non-negotiable deposits in a bank for a fixed period of time.

"Commercial paper" consists of short-term (usually from 1 to 270 days) unsecured
promissory notes issued to finance current operations. Commercial paper  ratings
are as follows:

A  Prime  rating is  the  highest commercial  paper  rating assigned  by Moody's
Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's"). Issuers rated Prime are further referred to
by use of numbers  1, 2 and  3 to denote relative  strength within this  highest
classification. Among the factors considered by Moody's in assigning ratings are
the  following: (1)  evaluation of  the management  of the  issuer; (2) economic
evaluation  of  the  issuer's  industry  or  industries  and  an  appraisal   of
speculative type risks which may be inherent in certain areas; (3) evaluation of
the  issuer's products in  relation to competition  and customer acceptance; (4)
liquidity; (5) amount and quality of long-term debt; (6) trend of earnings  over
a  period  of ten  years; (7)  financial strength  of a  parent company  and the
relationships which exist with the issuer; and (8) recognition by management  of
obligations  which may be  present or may  arise as a  result of public interest
questions and preparations to meet such obligations.

Commercial paper  rated A  by  Standard &  Poor's  Corporation ("S&P")  has  the
following characteristics as determined by S&P: Liquidity ratios are better than
the  industry average;  long-term senior  debt rating  is A  or better  (in some
cases, BBB credits may  be acceptable); the  issuer has access  to at least  two
additional channels of borrowing and basic earnings and cash flow have an upward
trend  with allowances made  for unusual circumstances.  Typically, the issuer's
industry is  well established,  the  issuer has  a  strong position  within  its
industry  and the reliability and quality of management is unquestioned. Issuers
rated A are further referred to by use of numbers 1, 2 and 3 to denote  relative
strength within this highest classification.

"Other corporate obligations" are bonds and notes, loan participations and other
debt   obligations   created   by  corporations,   banks   and   other  business
organizations, including business trusts. Corporate bond ratings are as follows:

Bonds rated Aa by  Moody's are judged by  Moody's to be of  high quality by  all
standards. Together with bonds rated Aaa (Moody's highest rating), they comprise
what are generally known as high-grade bonds. They are rated lower than the best
bond  because margins  of protection may  not be  as large as  Aaa securities or
fluctuation of protective elements may be  of greater amplitude or there may  be
other  elements present  which make the  long-term risks  appear somewhat larger
than in Aaa securities.

Bonds rated AA by S&P are judged by S&P to be high-grade obligations and, in the
majority of instances,  to differ only  in small degree  from issues rated  AAA.
Bonds  rated  AAA are  considered by  S&P  to be  highest grade  obligations and
possess the ultimate degree of protection as to principal and interest. As  with
AAA bonds, prices of AA bonds move with the long-term money market.

An   "NRSRO"  is  any  nationally  recognized  statistical  rating  organization
designated by the SEC staff, including Moody's and S&P.

An "eligible security" is either (i) a short-term security that is rated, or has
been issued by an issuer that is rated with respect to comparable securities, in
one of the two highest rating categories  for such securities or issuers by  two
NRSROs  (or  by only  one NRSRO  if it  is the  only NRSRO  that has  rated such
security or  issuer),  or (ii)  an  unrated short-term  security  of  comparable
quality as determined by the VCA-11 Committee.

                                       36
<PAGE>
A  "first tier" security is either (i)  an "eligible security" that is rated, or
has been  issued  by  an  issuer  that  is  rated  with  respect  to  comparable
securities, in the highest rating category for such securities or issuers by two
NRSROs  (or  by only  one NRSRO  if it  is the  only NRSRO  that has  rated such
security or issuer),  or (ii) is  an unrated short-term  security of  comparable
quality as determined by the VCA-11 Committee.

A  "second tier" security is  any "eligible security" other  than a "first tier"
security.

                             INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT
                             AND ADMINISTRATION OF
                           VCA-10, VCA-11 AND VCA-24

Prudential  acts  as investment  manager  for The  Prudential  Variable Contract
Account-10 ("VCA-10") and The Prudential Variable Contract Account-11 ("VCA-11")
under  separate  investment  management  agreements  with  each  of  them.  Each
Account's  assets are invested and reinvested  in accordance with its investment
objective and policies, subject to the general supervision and authorization  of
the Account's Committee.

The  assets of each Subaccount of VCA-24 are invested in shares of the series of
the common stock of The Prudential Series Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") that represent
the portfolio  of the  Fund that  corresponds to  the particular  Subaccount  of
VCA-24.  The Prospectus and the Statement  of Additional Information of the Fund
describe the  investment  management and  administration  of the  Fund  and  its
various portfolios.

Subject  to Prudential's supervision, all  of the investment management services
provided by  Prudential  are  furnished  by  its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  The
Prudential  Investment Corporation  ("PIC"), pursuant  to the  service agreement
between Prudential  and  PIC  (the  "Service  Agreement")  which  provides  that
Prudential  will reimburse PIC for its costs  and expenses. PIC is registered as
an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.

   
Prudential continues to have responsibility for all
investment advisory services under its  advisory or subadvisory agreements  with
respect  to its clients. Prudential's  investment management agreement with each
of VCA-10  and  VCA-11  was most  recently  renewed  by unanimous  vote  of  the
Committees  on November  11, 1994  and by  the Participants  in each  Account on
September 8,  1983. The  Service  Agreement was  submitted  to and  approved  by
Participants   in  VCA-10  and  VCA-11  on  November  4,  1985  and  its  annual
continuation  was   most   recently   approved  by   unanimous   vote   of   the
VCA-10  and VCA-11  Committees on November  11, 1994.  Each Account's investment
management agreement and the Service Agreement  will continue in effect as  long
as  approved at least once a year by a majority of the non-interested members of
the Account's Committee and either by a majority of each entire Committee or  by
a  majority  vote of  persons entitled  to vote  in respect  of the  Account. An
Account's investment management  agreement will terminate  automatically in  the
event of assignment, and may be terminated without penalty on 60 days' notice by
the  Account's Committee or by the majority vote of persons having voting rights
in respect of the Account, or on 90 days' notice by Prudential.
    

   
The Service Agreement will continue in effect as to each Account for a period of
more than two  years from  its execution  only so  long as  such continuance  is
specifically approved at least annually in the same manner as the Agreements for
Investment  Management Services between Prudential and the Accounts. The Service
Agreement may be  terminated by  either party upon  not less  than thirty  days'
prior  written notice  to the other  party, will terminate  automatically in the
event of its assignment and will terminate automatically as to an Account in the
event  of  the  assignment  or  termination  of  the  Agreement  for  Investment
Management  Services  between  Prudential  and the  Account.  Prudential  is not
relieved of its responsibility  for all investment  advisory services under  the
Agreement   for  Investment  Management  Services  between  Prudential  and  the
Accounts. The Service Agreement provides for Prudential to reimburse PIC for its
costs and expenses incurred in furnishing investment advisory services. For  the
meaning  of a majority vote  of persons having voting  rights with respect to an
Account, see "Voting Rights," page 33 of the Prospectus.
    

Prudential is responsible for the administrative and
recordkeeping functions  of VCA-10,  VCA-11  and VCA-24  and pays  the  expenses
associated  with them. These functions include enrolling Participants, receiving
and
allocating  contributions,  maintaining  Participants'  Accumulation   Accounts,
preparing   and  distributing   confirmations,  statements,   and  reports.  The
administrative and recordkeeping expenses borne by Prudential include  salaries,
rent,  postage, telephone, travel, legal,  actuarial and accounting fees, office
equipment, stationery and maintenance of computer and other systems.  Prudential
has  entered into a service agreement with its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary,
The Prudential Asset Management Company, Inc., (PAMCO) which provides that PAMCO
may furnish certain administrative and recordkeeping services in connection with
Prudential's obligations under the Contracts  and provides that Prudential  will
reimburse  PAMCO for its costs and  expenses. Prudential is reimbursed for these
administrative and recordkeeping expenses by  the annual account charge and  the
daily   charge  against   the  assets  of   each  Account   and  Subaccount  for
administrative expenses.

   
A daily charge is made  which is equal to an  effective annual rate of 1.00%  of
the  net value of the assets in VCA-10 and VCA-11. Three quarters of this charge
(0.75%) is for administrative expenses not covered by the annual account charge,
and one quarter  (0.25%) is for  investment management. During  1994, 1993,  and
1992,  Prudential received $2,608,950, $2,122,507, and $1,581,297, respectively,
from VCA-10 and $659,492, $575,317, and $529,770, respectively, from VCA-11  for
administrative expenses and for providing management services.
    

   
A  daily charge is made which  is equal to an effective  annual rate of 0.75% of
the net value of the assets in each Subaccount of VCA-24. All of this charge  is
for  administrative expenses  not covered by  the annual  account charge. During
1994,  1993,  and   1992,  Prudential  received   $3,535,163,  $2,451,437,   and
$1,376,069, respectively, in daily charges for VCA-24.
    

                                       2
<PAGE>
   
There  is  also an  annual  account charge  for  administrative expenses  of not
greater than $20 assessed against  a Participant's Accumulation Account.  During
1994,  1993,  and  1992,  Prudential collected  $69,867,  $49,223,  and $29,368,
respectively, from VCA-10 and $34,832, $35,335, and $32,729, respectively,  from
VCA-11  in  annual  account charges.  During  1994, 1993,  and  1992, Prudential
collected $139,359, $95,961, and $57,813, respectively in annual account charges
from VCA-24.
    

   
A deferred sales charge is also imposed on certain withdrawals from the Accounts
and  Subaccounts.  The  deferred  sales  charges  imposed  on  withdrawals  from
VCA-10  during  1994,  1993,  and  1992,  were  $24,016,  $17,485,  and $18,198,
respectively. The deferred  sales charges imposed  on VCA-11 withdrawals  during
1994,  1993, and 1992,  were $16,777, $10,159,  and $7,396, respectively. During
1994, 1993, and  1992 the  deferred sales  charges imposed  on withdrawals  from
VCA-24 were $62,145, $46,085, and $31,972, respectively.
    

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS ADOPTED BY VCA-10 AND
VCA-11

The  following investment  restrictions are fundamental  investment policies and
may not be changed  without the approval  of a majority  vote of persons  having
voting rights in respect of the Account.

Neither of the Accounts will:

    1. Buy or sell real estate, mortgages, commodities
       or commodity contracts, except that (a) VCA-10 may buy and sell shares of
       real  estate investment trusts  listed on stock  exchanges or reported on
       the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. automated  quotation
       system  ("NASDAQ");  and (b)  VCA-10 may  purchase  and sell  stock index
       futures contracts and related options.

    2. Buy or sell the securities of other investment
       companies.

    3. Acquire securities for the purpose of exercising
       control or management of any company.

    4. Make short sales of securities or maintain a
       short position, except that VCA-10 may make short sales against the  box.
       Collateral  arrangements entered into  by VCA-10 with  respect to futures
       contracts and  related  options and  the  writing of  options  on  equity
       securities and stock indices are not deemed to be short sales.

    5. Purchase securities on margin, issue senior
securities  or otherwise borrow money, except that either Account, in accordance
       with its  investment  objective  and  policies,  may  purchase  and  sell
       securities  on a when-issued  and delayed delivery  basis. Either Account
       may obtain  such short-term  credit  as it  needs  for the  clearance  of
       securities  transactions, and may also borrow  from a bank as a temporary
       measure, in amounts not  exceeding 5% of the  value of its portfolio,  to
       accommodate  abnormally heavy redemption requests,  if they should occur,
       but not for leveraging or investment purposes. Investment securities will
       not be  purchased  while borrowings  are  outstanding. Interest  paid  on
       borrowings  will  not  be  available  for  investment  by  the  Accounts.
       Collateral arrangements entered  into by VCA-10  with respect to  futures
       contracts  and  related  options and  the  writing of  options  on equity
       securities and  stock indices  are not  deemed to  be the  issuance of  a
       senior security or the purchase of a security on margin.

    6. Mortgage, pledge or hypothecate any assets,
       except  that either Account may  pledge assets in an  amount up to 10% of
       the  value  of  its  portfolio,   but  only  to  secure  borrowings   for
       extraordinary  or emergency purposes  as described in  paragraph 5 above.
       Collateral arrangements entered  into by VCA-10  with respect to  futures
       contracts  and  related  options and  the  writing of  options  on equity
       securities  and  stock  indices  are  not  deemed  to  be  a  pledge   or
       hypothecation of assets.

    7. Make cash loans except that VCA-10 may make
       loans  of up to 10% of the value of its portfolio through the purchase of
       privately  placed  bonds,  debentures,  notes  and  other  evidences   of
       indebtedness   of  a  character  customarily  acquired  by  institutional
       investors that may or may not be convertible into stock or accompanied by
       warrants or  rights  to  acquire  stock, and  VCA-11  may  purchase  debt
       obligations  in accordance with its investment objective and policies and
       may engage in repurchase  agreements as described on  pages 14 and 15  of
       the Prospectus.

    8. Lend portfolio securities unless the loans are
       fully  collateralized  and  subject  to  such  other  safeguards  as  the
       Account's Committee  determines  are  advisable and  appropriate.  For  a
       discussion  of the  risks involved  in lending  portfolio securities, see
       "Loans of Portfolio Securities," page 4.

    9. Underwrite the securities of other issuers,
except where VCA-10  may be  deemed to  be an  underwriter for  purposes of  the
       Securities  Act of  1933 in  connection with the  loans that  it may make
       pursuant to paragraph 7 above.

   10. Seventy-five percent of the assets held in each
       Account are subject  to the limitation  that no purchase  of a  security,
       other  than  a  security  of  the U.S.  Government  or  its  agencies and
       instrumentalities, will be made for each  Account if as a result of  such
       purchase  more than 5% of the total value of the Account's assets will be
       invested in the securities of one issuer.

                                       3
<PAGE>
   11. Purchase any securities (other than obligations
       of the  U.S. Government,  its  agencies and  instrumentalities) if  as  a
       result 25% or more of the value of the Account's total assets (determined
       at  the time of investment) would be invested in the securities of one or
       more issuers conducting their principal  business activities in the  same
       industry,  provided that  there is  no limitation  with respect  to money
       market instruments of domestic banks, U.S. branches of foreign banks that
       are subject to the same regulations  as U.S. banks, and foreign  branches
       of  domestic banks  (provided that  the domestic  bank is unconditionally
       liable in the event of the failure of the foreign branch to make  payment
       on its instruments for any reason).

In addition, VCA-11 will not:

   Purchase  common stock, preferred stock, warrants or other equity securities,
   or oil and gas interests.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY STATE LAW

In addition to the  investment objectives, policies  and restrictions that  they
have adopted, VCA-10 and VCA-11 must limit their investments to those authorized
for  variable contract accounts of  life insurance companies by  the laws of the
State of New Jersey.  In the event  of future amendments  of the applicable  New
Jersey  statutes, each Account will comply, without the approval of Participants
or others having  voting rights in  respect of the  Account, with the  statutory
requirements  as so modified. The pertinent provisions of New Jersey law as they
currently read are, in summary form, as follows:

    1. An account may not purchase any evidence of
       indebtedness issued, assumed or guaranteed by any institution created  or
       existing  under  the  laws of  the  U.S.,  any U.S.  state  or territory,
       District of Columbia, Puerto  Rico, Canada or  any Canadian province,  if
       such evidence of indebtedness is in default as to interest. "Institution"
       includes  any  corporation,  joint  stock  association,  business  trust,
       business  joint   venture,  business   partnership,  savings   and   loan
       association, credit union or other mutual savings institution.

    2. The stock of a corporation may not be
purchased  unless (i) the corporation  has paid a cash  dividend on the class of
       stock during each of the past five years preceding the time of  purchase,
       or  (ii)  during  the  five-year  period  the  corporation  had aggregate
       earnings available for dividends on such class of stock sufficient to pay
       average dividends of  4% per annum  computed upon the  par value of  such
       stock,  or  upon  stated  value  if the  stock  has  no  par  value. This
       limitation does not apply to any class of stock which is preferred as  to
       dividends over a class of stock whose purchase is not prohibited.

    3. Any common stock purchased must be (i) listed
       or  admitted to trading on a securities  exchange in the United States or
       Canada; or  (ii)  included  in the  National  Association  of  Securities
       Dealers'  national  price listings  of "over-the-counter"  securities; or
       (iii) determined by  the Commissioner of  Insurance of New  Jersey to  be
       publicly held and traded and as to which market quotations are available.
       As of the date of this Prospectus no such determination has been made.

    4. Any security of a corporation may not be
purchased  if after the purchase more than 10% of the market value of the assets
       of an Account would be invested in the securities of such corporation.

The currently  applicable  requirements of  New  Jersey law  impose  substantial
limitations on the ability of
VCA-10  to invest in  the stock of  companies whose securities  are not publicly
traded or who  have not  recorded a five-year  history of  dividend payments  or
earnings  sufficient to support such payments.  This means that the Account will
not generally invest in the stock of newly organized corporations.  Nonetheless,
an  investment not otherwise eligible  under paragraph 1 or  2 above may be made
if, after  giving  effect  to  the  investment,  the  total  cost  of  all  such
non-eligible investments does not exceed 5% of the aggregate market value of the
assets of the Account.

Investment  limitations may also arise under  the insurance laws and regulations
of other  states where  the Contracts  are sold.  Although compliance  with  the
requirements  of  New  Jersey law  set  forth  above will  ordinarily  result in
compliance with any applicable  laws of other  states, under some  circumstances
the  laws of other states could impose additional restrictions on the portfolios
of the Accounts.

LOANS OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES

VCA-10 and  VCA-11 may  from time  to time  lend their  portfolio securities  to
broker-dealers, provided that such loans are made pursuant to written agreements
and  are continuously secured by collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government
securities or irrevocable  standby letters of  credit in an  amount equal to  at
least  the market value at  all times of the  loaned securities. During the time
portfolio securities are on loan, VCA-10 and
VCA-11  will  continue  to  receive  the  interest  and  dividends,  or  amounts
equivalent  thereto, on  the loaned  securities while  receiving a  fee from the
borrower or earning interest on the investment of the cash collateral. The right
to terminate  the loan  will be  given to  either party  subject to  appropriate
notice.  Upon termination of  the loan, the  borrower will return  to the lender
securities identical to the loaned securities. VCA-10 will not have the right to
vote securities on loan, but  would terminate the loan  and regain the right  to
vote  if  that were  considered important  with respect  to the  investment. The
primary   risk   in    lending   securities   is    that   the   borrower    may

                                       4
<PAGE>
become  insolvent on a day on which  the loaned security is rapidly advancing in
price. In such event, if the borrower fails to return the loaned securities, the
existing collateral might be  insufficient to purchase back  the full amount  of
stock loaned, and the borrower would be unable to furnish additional collateral.
The   borrower   would   be   liable   for   any   shortage,   but   VCA-10  and
VCA-11 would be unsecured creditors with respect to such shortage and might  not
be  able to recover all or  any of it. However, this  risk may be minimized by a
careful selection of borrowers and securities to be lent.

VCA-10 and VCA-11  will not  lend their portfolio  securities to  broker-dealers
affiliated  with Prudential, including  Prudential Securities Incorporated. This
will not  affect the  Accounts'  ability to  maximize their  securities  lending
opportunities.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER RATE

   
VCA-10 has no fixed policy with respect to portfolio turnover, which is an index
determined  by  dividing the  lesser  of the  purchases  and sales  of portfolio
securities during the year by the monthly average of the aggregate value of  the
portfolio  securities  owned during  the year.  VCA-10  seeks long  term capital
growth rather than short term trading  profits. However, during any period  when
changing  economic or  market conditions are  anticipated, successful management
requires an aggressive response  to such changes which  may result in  portfolio
shifts  that may significantly  increase the rate  of portfolio turnover. Higher
portfolio turnover involves  correspondingly greater  brokerage commissions  and
other  transaction  costs,  which  are  borne  directly  by  VCA-10.  It  is not
anticipated that under normal circumstances  the annual portfolio turnover  rate
would  exceed 100%. During 1994  and 1993 the total  portfolio turnover rate for
VCA-10 was 31.50% and 45.45%, respectively.
    

PORTFOLIO BROKERAGE AND RELATED PRACTICES

Prudential is responsible for  decisions to buy and  sell securities for  VCA-10
and  VCA-11, the selection of brokers and dealers to effect the transactions and
the negotiation  of  brokerage commissions,  if  any. Transactions  on  a  stock
exchange  in equity  securities for  VCA-10 will  be executed  primarily through
brokers who  will  receive  a  commission paid  by  the  Account.  Fixed  income
securities,  as well as securities traded in the over-the-counter market, on the
other hand, will not normally incur any brokerage commissions. These  securities
are  generally traded  on a  "net" basis with  dealers acting  as principals for
their own  accounts without  a  stated commission,  although  the price  of  the
security  usually includes  a profit to  the dealer.  In underwritten offerings,
securities  are  purchased  at  a  fixed  price  that  includes  an  amount   of
compensation  to  the underwriter,  generally referred  to as  the underwriter's
concession or  discount.  On  occasion,  certain  of  these  securities  may  be
purchased  directly  from  an  issuer, in  which  case  neither  commissions nor
discounts are paid.

In  placing  orders  for  portfolio   transactions  of  the  Accounts,   primary
consideration is given to obtaining the most favorable price and best execution.
An attempt is made to effect each transaction at a price and commission, if any,
that  provide the most favorable total cost or proceeds reasonably attainable in
the circumstances.  However, a  higher spread  or commission  than is  otherwise
necessary  for  a particular  transaction may  be paid  if to  do so  appears to
further the goal of obtaining the best execution available.

In connection  with  any  securities  transaction  that  involves  a  commission
payment,  the  commission is  negotiated with  the  broker on  the basis  of the
quality and quantity of execution services that the broker provides, in light of
generally prevailing commission rates.  Periodically, Prudential and PIC  review
the allocation among brokers of orders for equity securities and the commissions
that were paid.

When  selecting a broker or  dealer in connection with  a transaction for either
Account, consideration is given  to whether the broker  or dealer has  furnished
Prudential or PIC with certain services that brokerage houses customarily supply
to  institutional investors, provided this does  not jeopardize the objective of
obtaining the best price and execution.

These services include  statistical and  economic data and  research reports  on
particular  companies and industries.  Prudential and PIC  use these services in
connection with all  of their  investment activities, and  some of  the data  or
services  obtained  in  connection with  the  execution of  transactions  for an
Account may be used in  managing other investment accounts. Conversely,  brokers
and  dealers  furnishing such  services  may be  selected  for the  execution of
transactions of such other accounts, while the data and services may be used  in
providing  investment  management  for one  or  both of  the  Accounts. Although
Prudential's present policy is not to permit higher spreads or commissions to be
paid  on  transactions  for  the  Accounts  in  order  to  secure  research  and
statistical  services from  brokers or dealers,  Prudential might  in the future
authorize the payment of  higher commissions (but not  of higher spreads),  with
the  prior concurrence of an  Account's Committee, if it  is determined that the
higher commissions are  necessary in order  to secure desired  research and  are
reasonable in relation to all the services that the broker provides.

When  investment opportunities arise  that may be appropriate  for more than one
entity for which Prudential serves as investment manager or adviser, one  entity
will  not be favored over another and allocations of investments among them will
be made in an impartial manner believed to be equitable to each entity involved.
The allocations will  be based on  each entity's investment  objectives and  its
current  cash and investment  positions. Because the  various entities for which
Prudential acts  as  investment manager  or  adviser have  different  investment
objectives  and  positions,  from time  to  time  a particular  security  may be
purchased for one or more

                                       5
<PAGE>
such entities while at the same time such securities may be sold for another.

   
An affiliated broker may be employed to execute brokerage transactions on behalf
of the Accounts as long as the  commissions are reasonable and fair compared  to
the  commissions  received  by  other  brokers  in  connection  with  comparable
transactions  involving  similar  securities  being  purchased  or  sold  on   a
securities  exchange during a comparable period  of time. During 1994, 1993, and
1992, the total  dollar amount of  commissions paid by  VCA-10 to an  affiliated
broker,   Prudential  Securities  Incorporated,  was  $-0-,  $6,705,  and  $132,
respectively.  The  Accounts  may  not  engage  in  any  transactions  in  which
Prudential or its affiliates, including Prudential Securities Incorporated, acts
as  principal,  including over-the-counter  purchases  and negotiated  trades in
which such a party acts as a principal.
    

Prudential or PIC may enter into  business transactions with brokers or  dealers
for  purposes other than the execution  of portfolio securities transactions for
accounts Prudential  manages.  These  other transactions  will  not  affect  the
selection  of brokers or  dealers in connection  with portfolio transactions for
the Accounts.

   
During 1994, 1993, and 1992, $324,943, $378,737, and $292,910, respectively, was
paid to various brokers in  connection with securities transactions for  VCA-10.
Of  this  amount,  approximately  66.57%, 77.4%,  and  85.5%,  respectively, was
allocated  to  brokers  who  provided  research  and  statistical  services   to
Prudential.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT OPTIONS ON STOCKS, OPTIONS ON STOCK INDICES,  STOCK
INDEX FUTURES CONTRACTS, AND OPTIONS ON STOCK INDEX FUTURES CONTRACTS.

OPTIONS ON EQUITY SECURITIES. VCA-10 may purchase and write (I.E., sell) put and
call  options  on  equity  securities that  are  traded  on  national securities
exchanges or that are listed on  the National Association of Securities  Dealers
Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ").

VCA-10  will write  call options on  stocks only  if they are  covered, and such
options must remain covered so long as  VCA-10 is obligated as a writer. A  call
option  is "covered" if: (1) VCA-10 owns  the security underlying the option; or
(2) VCA-10 has an absolute and immediate right to acquire that security  without
additional  cash consideration (or  for additional cash  consideration held in a
segregated account  by  its custodian)  upon  conversion or  exchange  of  other
securities held in its portfolio; or (3) VCA-10 holds on a share-for-share basis
a  call on the same security  as the call written where  the strike price of the
call held is  equal to  or less than  the strike  price of the  call written  or
greater  than  the  strike  price  of the  call  written  if  the  difference is
maintained by VCA-10 in cash, Treasury  bills or other liquid high-grade  short-
term debt obligations in a segregated account with its custodian.

VCA-10  will write  put options  on stocks  only if  they are  covered, and such
options must remain covered so  long as VCA-10 is obligated  as a writer. A  put
option  is "covered" if: (1) VCA-10 holds in a segregated account cash, Treasury
bills or other liquid high-grade short-term debt obligations of a value equal to
the strike price; or
(2) VCA-10 holds on a  share-for-share basis a put on  the same security as  the
put  written where the strike price of the  put held is equal to or greater than
the strike price of  the put written or  less than the strike  price of the  put
written  if the difference  is maintained by  VCA-10 in cash,  Treasury bills or
other liquid high grade short-term debt obligations in a segregated account with
its custodian.

VCA-10 may  purchase  "protective puts,"  I.E.,  put options  acquired  for  the
purpose  of protecting a portfolio  security from a decline  in market value. In
exchange for the premium paid for the  put option, VCA-10 acquires the right  to
sell  the underlying security at  the strike price of  the put regardless of the
extent to which the underlying security declines in value. The loss to VCA-10 is
limited to the premium paid for,  and transaction costs in connection with,  the
put  plus the  initial excess,  if any,  of the  market price  of the underlying
security over the  strike price. However,  if the market  price of the  security
underlying the put rises, the profit VCA-10 realizes on the sale of the security
will  be reduced by the premium paid for  the put option less any amount (net of
transaction costs) for which the put may be sold.

VCA-10 may purchase  call options  for hedging and  investment purposes.  VCA-10
does  not intend to invest more than 5% of its net assets at any one time in the
purchase of call options on stocks.

If the writer of  an option wishes  to terminate the obligation,  he or she  may
effect  a "closing purchase transaction" by buying  an option of the same series
as the  option  previously written.  Similarly,  the  holder of  an  option  may
liquidate  his  or her  position  by exercising  the  option or  by  effecting a
"closing sale transaction," I.E.,  selling an option of  the same series as  the
option  previously  purchased.  VCA-10  may  effect  closing  sale  and purchase
transactions. VCA-10 will  realize a profit  from a closing  transaction if  the
price  of the  transaction is  less than the  premium received  from writing the
option or  is  more  than the  premium  paid  to purchase  the  option.  Because
increases  in the market price of a call option will generally reflect increases
in the  market price  of the  underlying  security, any  loss resulting  from  a
closing    purchase   transaction   with   respect   to   a   call   option   is

                                       6
<PAGE>
likely to be offset in whole or in part by appreciation of the underlying equity
security owned by VCA-10. There is no guarantee that closing purchase or closing
sale transactions can be effected.

VCA-10's use  of options  on equity  securities is  subject to  certain  special
risks,  in addition to the risk that the  market value of the security will move
adversely to VCA-10's option position. An option position may be closed out only
on an  exchange, board  of trade  or  other trading  facility which  provides  a
secondary  market  for  an  option  of the  same  series.  Although  VCA-10 will
generally purchase or write only those options for which there appears to be  an
active secondary market, there is no assurance that a liquid secondary market on
an exchange will exist for any particular option, or at any particular time, and
for  some options no secondary market on  an exchange or otherwise may exist. In
such event it might not be possible to effect closing transactions in particular
options, with the result that VCA-10 would have to exercise its options in order
to realize any profit and would incur brokerage commissions upon the exercise of
such options  and  upon  the subsequent  disposition  of  underlying  securities
acquired through the exercise of call options or upon the purchase of underlying
securities  or the exercise of  put options. If VCA-10  as a covered call option
writer is unable to effect a closing purchase transaction in a secondary market,
it will not be able to sell the underlying security until the option expires  or
it delivers the underlying security upon exercise.

Reasons  for the absence of a liquid secondary market on an exchange include the
following: (i) there may  be insufficient trading  interest in certain  options;
(ii)  restrictions imposed  by an  exchange on  opening transactions  or closing
transactions or both; (iii) trading halts, suspensions or other restrictions may
be imposed with respect to particular classes or series of options or underlying
securities; (iv)  unusual  or  unforeseen  circumstances  may  interrupt  normal
operations  on an  exchange; (v)  the facilities  of an  exchange or  a clearing
corporation may not at all times  be adequate to handle current trading  volume;
or (vi) one or more exchanges could, for economic or other reasons, decide or be
compelled  at  some future  date to  discontinue  the trading  of options  (or a
particular class or series of options),  in which event the secondary market  on
that  exchange (or  in the  class or  series of  options) would  cease to exist,
although outstanding options on that exchange that had been issued by a clearing
corporation as  a  result  of trades  on  that  exchange would  continue  to  be
exercisable  in accordance with  their terms. There is  no assurance that higher
than anticipated  trading activity  or  other unforeseen  events might  not,  at
times,  render certain  of the  facilities of  any of  the clearing corporations
inadequate, and thereby  result in  the institution  by an  exchange of  special
procedures  which may interfere with the  timely execution of customers' orders.
However, The Option  Clearing Corporation,  based on forecasts  provided by  the
U.S.  exchanges, believes that its facilities  are adequate to handle the volume
of reasonably anticipated options transactions, and such exchanges have  advised
such  clearing  corporation  that they  believe  their facilities  will  also be
adequate to handle reasonably anticipated volumes.

OPTIONS ON STOCK INDICES. VCA-10 will  write call options on stock indices  only
if  they  are covered,  and such  options remain  covered as  long as  VCA-10 is
obligated as  a  writer.  A  call  option  is  covered  if  VCA-10  follows  the
segregation  requirements set forth in this paragraph. When VCA-10 writes a call
option on a broadly  based stock market index,  the portfolio will segregate  or
put  into escrow with its custodian or pledge  to a broker as collateral for the
option, cash, cash equivalents or "qualified securities" (defined below) with  a
market  value at the  time the option  is written of  not less than  100% of the
current index value  times the multiplier  times the number  of contracts.  When
VCA-10  writes a  call option on  an industry  or market segment  index, it will
segregate or  put into  escrow  with its  custodian or  pledge  to a  broker  as
collateral  for the option,  at least five "qualified  securities", all of which
are stocks of issuers in such industry or market segment, with a market value at
the time the option is written of not less than 100% of the current index  value
times  the multiplier  times the number  of contracts. Such  stocks will include
stocks which represent at least 50% of  the weighting of the industry or  market
segment  index and will  represent at least  50% of the  portfolio's holdings in
that industry or market segment. No individual security will represent more than
15% of the  amount so segregated,  pledged or  escrowed in the  case of  broadly
based  stock market index options or 25% of  such amount in the case of industry
or market segment  index options. If  at the close  of business on  any day  the
market  value of  such qualified securities  so segregated,  escrowed or pledged
falls below  100% of  the current  index value  times the  multiplier times  the
number  of contracts, VCA-10  will so segregate,  escrow or pledge  an amount in
cash, Treasury bills or other liquid high-grade short-term obligations equal  in
value  to the  difference. In addition,  when VCA-10  writes a call  on an index
which is in-the-money  at the time  the call is  written, VCA-10 will  segregate
with  its  custodian  or  pledge  to the  broker  as  collateral,  cash  or U.S.
Government or other liquid high-grade short-term debt obligations equal in value
to the amount by which the call  is in-the-money times the multiplier times  the
number  of contracts. Any  amount segregated pursuant  to the foregoing sentence
may be applied  to VCA-10's obligation  to segregate additional  amounts in  the
event  that the market value of the qualified securities falls below 100% of the
current index  value times  the  multiplier times  the  number of  contracts.  A
"qualified  security"  is  an equity  security  which  is listed  on  a national
securities exchange or listed on NASDAQ  against which VCA-10 has not written  a
stock  call option and which has not been  hedged by VCA-10 by the sale of stock
index futures. A

                                       7
<PAGE>
call option  is  also  covered  and  VCA-10  need  not  follow  the  segregation
requirements  set forth  in this paragraph  if VCA-10  holds a call  on the same
index as the call written where the strike price of the call held is equal to or
less than the strike price of the call written or greater than the strike  price
of  the call written if the difference is maintained by VCA-10 in cash, Treasury
bills or other liquid high-grade short-term obligations in a segregated  account
with its custodian.

VCA-10  will write put  options on stock  indices only if  they are covered, and
such options must remain covered so long  as VCA-10 is obligated as a writer.  A
put  option  is covered  if:  (1) VCA-10  holds  in a  segregated  account cash,
Treasury bills or other liquid high-grade short-term debt obligations of a value
equal to the strike price times the multiplier times the number of contracts; or
(2) VCA-10 holds a  put on the same  index as the put  written where the  strike
price  of the put held is  equal to or greater than  the strike price of the put
written or less than the  strike price of the put  written if the difference  is
maintained  by  VCA-10  in  cash,  Treasury  bills  or  other  liquid high-grade
short-term debt obligations in a segregated account with its custodian.

VCA-10 may purchase put  and call options for  hedging and investment  purposes.
VCA-10  does not intend to invest more than 5% of its net assets at any one time
in the purchase of puts  and calls on stock  indices. VCA-10 may effect  closing
sale and purchase transactions, as described above in connection with options on
equity securities.

The  purchase and sale of  options on stock indices will  be subject to the same
risks as  options  on  equity  securities, described  above.  In  addition,  the
distinctive  characteristics of options on indices create certain risks that are
not present with  stock options.  Index prices may  be distorted  if trading  of
certain  stocks  included in  the  index is  interrupted.  Trading in  the index
options also may  be interrupted in  certain circumstances, such  as if  trading
were  halted in a  substantial number of  stocks included in  the index. If this
occurred, VCA-10 would not be able to  close out options which it had  purchased
or  written and,  if restrictions  on exercise  were imposed,  may be  unable to
exercise an option it holds, which could result in substantial losses to VCA-10.
It is the policy of  VCA-10 to purchase or write  options only on stock  indices
which  include a  number of  stocks sufficient to  minimize the  likelihood of a
trading halt in options on the index.

Trading in  index  options commenced  in  April 1983  with  the S&P  100  option
(formerly  called the "CBOE 100"). Since that  time a number of additional index
contracts have been introduced, including options on industry indices.  Although
the  markets  for certain  index option  contracts  have developed  rapidly, the
markets for other index  options are still relatively  illiquid. The ability  to
establish  and  close out  positions  on such  options  will be  subject  to the
development and maintenance of a liquid secondary market. It is not certain that
this market  will  develop in  all  index  options contracts.  VCA-10  will  not
purchase  or sell any index  option contract unless and  until, in the manager's
opinion, the market for such options has developed sufficiently that the risk in
connection with such transactions is no greater than the risk in connection with
options on stocks.

Price  movements  in  VCA-10's  equity  security  portfolio  probably  will  not
correlate  precisely with movements in the level of the index and, therefore, in
writing a call  on a stock  index VCA-10 bears  the risk that  the price of  the
securities  held by VCA-10 may not increase as much as the index. In such event,
VCA-10 would bear a loss on the call which is not completely offset by  movement
in  the price of VCA-10's equity securities.  It is also possible that the index
may rise when VCA-10's securities do not rise in value. If this occurred, VCA-10
would experience a loss on  the call which is not  offset by an increase in  the
value  of  its securities  portfolio and  might  also experience  a loss  in its
securities portfolio. However,  because the  value of  a diversified  securities
portfolio  will, over time,  tend to move  in the same  direction as the market,
movements in the value of VCA-10's  securities in the opposite direction as  the
market would be likely to occur for only a short period or to a small degree.

When VCA-10 has written a call, there is also a risk that the market may decline
between  the time VCA-10  has a call exercised  against it, at  a price which is
fixed as of the closing level of the index on the date of exercise, and the time
VCA-10 is able to sell  stocks in its portfolio.  As with stock options,  VCA-10
will  not learn that an index option  has been exercised until the day following
the exercise date  but, unlike a  call on stock  where VCA-10 would  be able  to
deliver the underlying securities in settlement, VCA-10 may have to sell part of
its  stock portfolio in order to make settlement  in cash, and the price of such
stocks might decline  before they can  be sold. This  timing risk makes  certain
strategies  involving more than one option substantially more risky with options
in stock indices than with stock options.

There are also certain special risks involved in purchasing put and call options
on stock indices. If VCA-10 holds an index option and exercises it before  final
determination of the closing index value for that day, it runs the risk that the
level of the underlying index may change before closing. If such a change causes
the  exercised option to  fall out-of-the-money, VCA-10 will  be required to pay
the difference  between the  closing index  value and  the strike  price of  the
option (times the applicable multiplier) to the assigned writer. Although VCA-10
may be able to minimize the risk by withholding exercise instructions until just
before the daily cutoff time or by selling rather than exercising an option when
the  index level  is close  to the  exercise price,  it may  not be  possible to
eliminate this risk entirely because the  cutoff times for index options may  be
earlier  than  those fixed  for  other types  of  options and  may  occur before
definitive closing index values are announced.

STOCK INDEX FUTURES CONTRACTS. VCA-10 may, to the extent permitted by applicable
regulations, attempt to reduce  the risk of investment  in equity securities  by
hedging a portion of its equity portfolio through the use of stock index futures
traded  on  a commodities  exchange or  board  of trade.  A stock  index futures
contract is an agreement in which the  seller of the contract agrees to  deliver
to  the buyer  an amount  of cash equal  to a  specific dollar  amount times the
difference between the value of a specific stock index at the close of the  last
trading  day of the  contract and the price  at which the  agreement is made. No
physical delivery  of the  underlying stocks  in  the index  is made.  When  the
futures  contract is  entered into, each  party deposits  with a broker  or in a
segregated custodial account approximately 5% of the contract amount, called the
"initial margin." Subsequent payments  to and from  the broker, call  "variation
margin,"  will be  made on a  daily basis as  the price of  the underlying stock
index fluctuates, making the long and  short positions in the futures  contracts
more or less valuable, a process known as "marking to the market."

VCA-10  may sell stock index futures to hedge  against a decline in the value of
equity securities it  holds. VCA-10 may  also buy stock  index futures to  hedge
against  a rise in the value of  equity securities VCA-10 intends to acquire. To
the extent permitted  by federal regulations,  VCA-10 may also  engage in  other
types  of  hedging transactions  in stock  index  futures that  are economically
appropriate for the  reduction of risks  inherent in the  ongoing management  of
VCA-10's equity securities.

VCA-10's  successful  use  of stock  index  futures contracts  depends  upon the
investment manager's  ability to  predict the  direction of  the market  and  is
subject  to various  additional risks. The  correlation between  movement in the
price of the stock index future and the price of the securities being hedged  is
imperfect  and the risk from imperfect  correlation increases as the composition
of VCA-10's securities diverges from the  composition of the relevant index.  In
addition,  the ability of  VCA-10 to close  out a futures  position depends on a
liquid secondary market.  There is  no assurance that  liquid secondary  markets
will  exist for  any particular stock  index futures contract  at any particular
time.

Under  regulations  of  the  Commodity  Futures  Trading  Commission   ("CFTC"),
investment  companies registered  under the Investment  Company Act  of 1940 are
excluded from regulation as commodity pools or commodity pool operators if their
use of futures is limited in certain specified ways. VCA-10 will use futures  in
a  manner consistent with the terms of this exclusion. Among other requirements,
no more than 5% of VCA-10's
assets may be committed as initial margin on futures contracts.

OPTIONS ON FUTURES CONTRACTS. VCA-10 may, to the extent permitted by  applicable
insurance law and federal regulations, enter into certain transactions involving
options  on stock index futures contracts. An option on a futures contract gives
the purchaser or holder the right, but not the obligation, to assume a  position
in  a futures  contract (a long  position if  the option is  a call  and a short
position if the option  is a put) at  a specified price at  any time during  the
option  exercise period. The writer  of the option is  required upon exercise to
assume an offsetting futures position (a short position if the option is a  call
and  a long position if the  option is a put). Upon  exercise of the option, the
assumption of  offsetting futures  positions by  the writer  and holder  of  the
option  will  be accomplished  by  delivery of  the  accumulated balance  in the
writer's futures margin account which represents the amount by which the  market
price  of the futures contract, at exercise, exceeds,  in the case of a call, or
is less than, in  the case of  a put, the  exercise price of  the option on  the
futures  contract. As  an alternative  to exercise, the  holder or  writer of an
option may terminate a position by selling  or purchasing an option of the  same
series.  There is no  guarantee that such closing  transactions can be effected.
VCA-10 intends to utilize options on stock index futures contracts for the  same
purposes that it intends to use the underlying stock index futures contracts.

Options  on futures  contracts are subject  to risks similar  to those described
above and in the prospectus with respect to options on stocks, options on  stock
indices,  and futures contracts. There is also the risk of imperfect correlation
between the option and the underlying futures contract. If there were no  liquid
secondary  market for  a particular option  on a futures  contract, VCA-10 might
have to exercise  an option it  held in order  to realize any  profit and  might
continue to be obligated under an option it had written until the option expired
or was exercised. If VCA-10 were unable to close out an option it had written on
a  futures contract, it would continue to be required to maintain initial margin
and make variation margin payments with respect to the option position until the
option expired or was exercised against the portfolio.

                            PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

   
The tables below  provide performance information  for each variable  investment
option  through  December  31, 1994.  The  performance information  is  based on
historical experience and does not indicate or represent future performance.
    

ANNUAL AVERAGE TOTAL RETURN

   
Table 1 below  shows the average  annual rates of  total return on  hypothetical
investments  of $1,000 for periods ended December 31, 1994 in VCA-10, VCA-11 and
the following subaccounts of VCA-24: Bond, Government Securities, Conservatively
Managed Flexible, Aggressively Managed Flexible,  Stock Index, Common Stock  and
Global  Equity. These figures assume withdrawal of the investments at the end of
the period other than to effect an  annuity under the Contract. VCA-24 has  been
in existence since May 1, 1987. However, the applicable underlying Portfolios of
the Fund existed as funding vehicles for other Prudential products prior to that
date.  For performance  information purposes,  the returns  calculated below for
periods prior to inclusion in the  MEDLEY Program reflect a hypothetical  return
as  if those  portfolios were  part of  the MEDLEY  Program at  that time, using
charges applicable to the MEDLEY Program.

The average annual rates of total return shown above are computed by finding the
average annual compounded  rates of  return over  the periods  shown that  would
equate  the initial amount invested to  the withdrawal value, in accordance with
the following  formula: P(1+T)n  = ERV.  In  the formula,  P is  a  hypothetical
investment or contribution of $1,000; T is the average annual total return; n is
the  number of years; and ERV is the  withdrawal value at the end of the periods
shown. The  annual  account charge  is  prorated among  the  investment  options
available   under  MEDLEY,  including  the   Companion  Contract,  in  the  same
proportions as the aggregate annual contract fees are deducted from each option.
These figures assume deduction of the maximum deferred sales charge that may  be
applicable to a particular period.

NON-STANDARD TOTAL RETURN

Table  2 below  shows the  average annual  rates of  return as  in Table  1, but
assumes that the contributions  or investments are not  withdrawn at the end  of
the period or that the Participant annuitizes at the end of the period.

VCA-11 YIELD

   
The "yield" and "effective  yield" of VCA-11 for  the seven days ended  December
31, 1994 were 4.93% and 5.05%, respectively.
    

The  yield  is computed  by  determining the  net  change, exclusive  of capital
changes, in the value of a hypothetical preexisting account having a balance  of
one  accumulation unit of VCA-11  at the beginning of  the period, subtracting a
prorated portion of the annual account  charge as explained above, and  dividing
the  difference by the value of the account at the beginning of the base period,
and then  multiplying the  base period  by (365/7),  with the  resulting  figure
carried to the nearest hundred of 1%.

The  yield reflects the  deduction of the 1%  charge for administrative expenses
and investment management, but does not reflect the deferred sales charge.

The effective yield  is obtained  by taking the  base period  return, adding  1,
raising the sum to a power equal to 365 divided by 7, and subtracting 1 from the
result, according to following formula: Effective Yield = [(base period return +
1)365/7] - 1.

   
The  yields on amount held in VCA-11 will fluctuate on a daily basis. Therefore,
the stated yields for any given period are not an indication of future yields.

*These members of  the VCA-10 and  VCA-11 Committees are  interested persons  of
Prudential, its affiliates or those Accounts as defined in the 1940 Act. Certain
actions  of each Committee,  including the annual  continuance of the investment
management agreement between each Account and Prudential, must be approved by  a
majority  of the  members of  each Committee who  are not  interested persons of
Prudential, its affiliates or the Account. Messrs. Fetting and Scott, members of
both Committees, are interested persons of Prudential and the Accounts, as  that
term  is defined in the  1940 Act, because they  are officers of Prudential, the
investment manager of both Accounts. Mrs. Gencher and Doctors Fenster,  McDonald
and  Weber are not interested persons of Prudential, its affiliates or of either
Account. However,  Dr. Fenster  is  President of  the  New Jersey  Institute  of
Technology;  Prudential has issued a group annuity contract to the Institute and
provides group life and health insurance to its employees.

REMUNERATION OF MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEES AND CERTAIN AFFILIATED PERSONS

No member of  the Committee  of either  VCA-10 or  VCA-11 nor  any other  person
(other  than Prudential) receives remuneration  from an Account. Prudential pays
certain of  the  expenses  relating  to the  operation  of  VCA-10  and  VCA-11,
including  all compensation paid to members of each Committee, its Chairman, its
Secretary and Assistant  Secretaries. No member  of either Account's  Committee,
its  Chairman, its  Secretary or Assistant  Secretaries who is  also an officer,
Director or employee of Prudential or an affiliate of Prudential is entitled  to
any fee for his services as a member or officer of the Committee.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT

(FROM THE 1994 MEDLEY REPORT TO PARTICIPANTS)

The  accompanying financial statements and all  information in the annual report
are the  responsibility of  management of  The Prudential  Insurance Company  of
America  (The  Prudential). These  financial  statements have  been  prepared in
accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  and  necessarily
include  amounts based on best estimates and judgments. Information presented in
one section of the annual report is consistent with information dealing with the
same or substantially similar subject  matter presented elsewhere in the  annual
report.

The  system of internal controls for VCA-10 is  an integral part of that for The
Prudential. This system is designed to provide reasonable assurance that  assets
are  safeguarded and  that transactions  are properly  recorded and  executed in
accordance with proper  authorization. The  concept of  reasonable assurance  is
based  on the premise that  the cost of internal  controls should not exceed the
benefits derived. In addition, The Prudential maintains a professional staff  of
internal  auditors  who  monitor  VCA-10's  control  structure  through periodic
reviews and tests of the control aspects of accounting, financial and  operating
activities.  The internal  auditors coordinate  their program  with that  of the
independent certified public accountants.

The financial statements have been audited  by Deloitte & Touche LLP,  Certified
Public  Accountants.  The Independent  Auditors' Report,  which appears  in this
annual report, expresses an independent professional opinion on the fairness  of
presentation,  in all  material respects, of  management's financial statements.
The auditors review VCA-10's financial  and accounting controls and perform  the
audit  to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatements.

The Prudential's Board  of Directors,  through its Auditing  Committee, and  the
VCA-10  Committee monitor  management's fulfillment of  its responsibilities for
accurate  accounting,  statement  preparation  and  protection  of  assets.  The
Auditing  Committee  is  composed solely  of  outside directors  and  the VCA-10
Committee has  a majority  of outside  members. Both  The Prudential's  Auditing
Committee  and  the  outside  members  of the  VCA-10  Committee  meet  with the
independent certified  public  accountants,  management  and  internal  auditors
periodically   to   evaluate  each   party's   execution  of   their  respective
responsibilities. Each has free and separate  access to the Auditing and  VCA-10
Committees  to  discuss accounting,  financial  reporting, internal  control and
auditing matters.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

TO THE  COMMITTEE  OF  AND  PERSONS PARTICIPATING  IN  THE  PRUDENTIAL  VARIABLE
CONTRACT ACCOUNT-10:

We  have  audited the  accompanying statement  of net  assets of  The Prudential
Variable Contract Account-10 of The  Prudential Insurance Company of America  as
of  December 31,  1994, the  related statement of  operations for  the year then
ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in  the
period  then ended, and the condensed financial information for each of the five
years in  the  period  then  ended. These  financial  statements  and  condensed
financial  information are the  responsibility of the  Account's management. Our
responsibility is  to  express an  opinion  on these  financial  statements  and
condensed financial information 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 condensed
financial information  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  December 31,  1994,  by  correspondence with  the  custodians and
brokers. 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, such  financial statements and  condensed financial information
present fairly,  in  all  material  respects,  the  financial  position  of  The
Prudential  Variable Contract Account-10 as of December 31, 1994, the results of
its operations,  the changes  in  its net  assets  and the  condensed  financial
information  for  the respective  stated  periods in  conformity  with generally
accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF VCA-10
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 AND 1993
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1:  GENERAL

         The Prudential Variable Contract Account-10 (VCA-10 or the Account) was
         established  by  The  Prudential  Insurance  Company  of  America  (The
         Prudential) under the laws of the State of New Jersey and is registered
         as an  open-end, diversified  management investment  company under  the
         Investment  Company Act of  1940, as amended.  VCA-10 has been designed
         for  use   by  employers   (Contract-holders)  in   making   retirement
         arrangements   on  behalf   of  their   employees  (Participants).  Its
         investments are composed  primarily of common  stocks. All  contractual
         and  other obligations arising under  contracts participating in VCA-10
         are  general  corporate   obligations  of   The  Prudential,   although
         Participants' payments from the Account will depend upon the investment
         experience of the Account.

NOTE 2:  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         A. INVESTMENTS

         EQUITY SECURITIES

         The  value of  securities (except  options and  fixed income securities
         including convertible bonds)  held in  VCA-10 will  be determined  once
         daily as of 5:00 P.M., New York time ("Valuation Time") using composite
         pricing  which reflects prices as of the close of business on all major
         exchanges, on each day on which the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is
         open for trading  and, as  provided below, on  any other  day in  which
         there  is sufficient trading in VCA-10's portfolio securities to result
         in a material change in  the value of the  Account. A security that  is
         traded  on a  national securities exchange  will be valued  at the last
         sale price  for such  security  on any  major  exchange on  which  such
         security is traded as of Valuation Time, or, in the absence of recorded
         sales on such exchange on the valuation date, at the average of readily
         available  bid and asked prices on such exchange at the Valuation Time.
         Any security not traded on a national securities exchange but traded in
         the over-the-counter market for which quotations are furnished  through
         the  nationwide  automated quotation  system  approved by  the National
         Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASDAQ") will be valued based
         on the last sale price  as of the Valuation Time  on each day on  which
         the  NYSE is open for trading, or,  in the absence of recorded sales on
         such day, at the average of readily available bid and asked prices,  as
         established  by NASDAQ at  the Valuation Time.  Unlisted securities not
         quoted on NASDAQ are valued at the average of the quoted bid and  asked
         prices  in the over-the-counter market at the Valuation Time. Portfolio
         securities for which market quotations  are not readily available  will
         be valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction
         of the Account's Committee.

         FIXED INCOME SECURITIES

         Fixed income securities including convertible bonds are valued based on
         prices  provided by  an industry-recognized  pricing service  when such
         prices  are  believed  to  reflect  the  fair  market  value  of   such
         securities.  Fixed  income securities  including convertible  bonds not
         priced in this manner are valued at  the mean of the last reported  bid
         and  asked prices  provided by  principal market  makers and recognized
         securities dealers in such securities.

         SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

         Short-term investments  having maturities  of sixty  days or  less  are
         valued  at amortized  cost, which approximates  market value. Amortized
         cost is computed using the cost  on the date of purchase, adjusted  for
         constant accrual of discount or amortization of premium to maturity.

         REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

         Repurchase agreements may be considered loans of money to the seller of
         the   underlying  security.  VCA-10  will  not  enter  into  repurchase
         agreements unless  the agreement  is  fully collateralized,  i.e.,  the
         value of the underlying collateral securities is, and during the entire
         term  of the  agreement remains,  at least equal  to the  amount of the
         'loan' including accrued interest. VCA-10  will take possession of  the
         collateral  and will  value it daily  to assure that  this condition is
         met. In the  event that a  seller defaults on  a repurchase  agreement,
         VCA-10  may incur a loss in the  market value of the collateral as well
         as disposition costs; and, if a party with whom VCA-10 had entered into
         a repurchase agreement becomes  insolvent, VCA-10's ability to  realize
         on  the collateral may be limited or delayed and a loss may be incurred
         if the collateral securing the  repurchase agreement declines in  value
         during the insolvency proceedings.

         OPTIONS

         Options  on  stocks and  stocks indices  traded on  national securities
         exchanges are  valued  as of  the  close  of options  trading  on  such
         exchanges  (which  is  currently  4:10  P.M.,  New  York  time)  on the
         valuation date.  Stock  index futures  and  options thereon  which  are
         traded  on commodities  exchanges are  valued as  of the  close of such
         commodity exchanges (which is  currently 4:15 P.M.,  New York time)  on
         the valuation date. The value of the option or future is based upon the
         last  sale price on the exchange on  which the contract is traded or as
         provided by NASDAQ or at the mean between the last bid and asked  price
         if  such bid  and asked price  are of a  more recent day  than the last
         trade price.

         B. INCOME RECOGNITION

         Income and realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments  are
         allocated  to the Participants  and The Prudential on  a daily basis in
         proportion to their respective equities  in VCA-10. Realized gains  and
         losses from equity transactions are determined and accounted for on the
         basis  of average cost. Realized gains and losses from convertible bond
         transactions  are  determined  and  accounted  for  on  the  basis   of
         identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date at
         declared  value. Interest  income is  accrued daily.  Equity, long-term
         bond and option  transactions are  recorded on the  first business  day
         following the trade date, except that transactions on the last business
         day  of  the  year  are  recorded  on  that  date.  Short-term security
         transactions are recorded on trade date.

         C. TAXES

         The operations  of  VCA-10  are  part  of,  and  are  taxed  with,  the
         operations  of  The Prudential.  Under  the current  provisions  of the
         Internal Revenue Code, The Prudential does not expect to incur  federal
         income  taxes  on earnings  of VCA-10  to the  extent the  earnings are
         credited under the Contracts. As a result, the Unit Value of VCA-10 has
         not been reduced by federal income taxes.

NOTE 3:  EXPENSES

         A daily charge,  at an effective  annual rate of  1.00% of the  current
         value of the Participant's equity in VCA-10, is paid to The Prudential.
         Three  quarters of this  charge (0.75%) is  for administrative expenses
         not covered by the  annual account charge, and  one quarter (0.25%)  is
         for investment management services.

NOTE 4:  ANNUAL ACCOUNT CHARGE

         An  annual  account  charge  is  deducted  from  the  account  of  each
         Participant at  the time  of withdrawal  of  the value  of all  of  the
         Participant's  accounts  or  at  the  end  of  the  accounting  year by
         cancelling Units. The charge will first be made against a Participant's
         account under a fixed dollar  annuity companion contract or fixed  rate
         option  of the  non-qualified combination contract.  If the Participant
         has no account under a companion contract or the fixed rate option,  or
         if  the amount under the companion contract or the fixed rate option is
         too small  to pay  the charge,  the  charge will  be made  against  the
         Participant's  account  in VCA-11.  If  the Participant  has  no VCA-11
         account, or if the amount  under that account is  too small to pay  the
         charge,  the charge will then be  made against the Participant's VCA-10
         account. If the  Participant has  no VCA-10 account,  or if  it is  too
         small  to pay the charge, the charge  will then be made against any one
         or more of  the Participant's  accounts in VCA-24.  The annual  account
         charge will not be greater than $20 and is paid to The Prudential.

NOTE 5:  DEFERRED SALES CHARGE

         A  deferred  sales  charge  is imposed  upon  that  portion  of certain
         withdrawals which represents a return  of contributions. The charge  is
         designed  to compensate  The Prudential  for sales  and other marketing
         expenses. The  maximum deferred  sales charge  is 7%  on  contributions
         withdrawn  from an account during the first two years of participation,
         6% on contributions withdrawn during the third through fifth years,  4%
         on contributions withdrawn during the sixth through tenth years, and 3%
         on contributions withdrawn during the eleventh through fifteenth years.
         No  deferred sales charge  is imposed upon  contributions withdrawn for
         any reason  after fifteen  years of  participation in  the Program.  In
         addition,  no  deferred  sales  charge  is  imposed  upon contributions
         withdrawn: (a) to purchase an annuity under a Prudential Group  Annuity
         contract;  (b) to  provide a death  benefit; (c) due  to resignation or
         retirement by the Participant or termination of the Participant by  the
         Contract-holder  (for all  plans other  than IRAs);  (d) pursuant  to a
         systematic withdrawal  plan;  (e) in  cases  of financial  hardship  or
         disability  retirement as determined pursuant  to the provisions of the
         employer's retirement  arrangement;  or  (f)  as  loans.  Contributions
         transferred  among  VCA-10,  VCA-11,  the  Subaccounts  of  VCA-24, the
         Companion Contract,  and the  fixed rate  option of  the  non-qualified
         combination contract are

         considered  to be withdrawals from the Account or Subaccount from which
         the transfer is  made, but  no deferred  sales charge  is imposed  upon
         them.

NOTE 6:  PURCHASES AND SALES OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES

         For  the year ended December 31, 1994, excluding short-term investments
         and U.S. government securities, the aggregate cost of purchases and the
         proceeds from sales  of securities were  $102,747,049 and  $79,438,807,
         respectively.

NOTE 7:  UNIT TRANSACTIONS

         The number of Units issued and redeemed for the years ended December
         31, 1994 and 1993 is as follows:

               --------------------------------------------
</TABLE>

NOTE 8:  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

         For   the  year   ended  December   31,  1994,   Prudential  Securities
         Incorporated, an indirect, wholly-owned  subsidiary of The  Prudential,
         earned $0 in brokerage commissions from portfolio transactions executed
         on behalf of VCA-10.

NOTE 9:  PARTICIPANT LOANS

         Loans  are considered to be withdrawals from the Account from which the
         loan amount was deducted, however  no deferred sales charge is  imposed
         upon  them. The principal portion of  any loan repayment, however, will
         be treated as a contribution to  the receiving Account for purposes  of
         calculating  any  deferred  sales charge  imposed  upon  any subsequent
         withdrawal. If the  Participant defaults  on the loan,  for example  by
         failing  to make required payments, the outstanding balance of the loan
         will be treated  as a  withdrawal for  purposes of  the deferred  sales
         charge.  The  deferred sales  charge will  be  withdrawn from  the same
         Accumulation Accounts, and in the same proportions, as the loan  amount
         was  withdrawn. If sufficient funds do not remain in those Accumulation
         Accounts,  the  deferred  sales  charge  will  be  withdrawn  from  the
         Participant's other Accumulation Accounts as well.

         Withdrawals,  transfers  and loans  from  VCA-10 are  considered  to be
         withdrawals  of   contributions   until  all   of   the   Participant's
         contributions  to  the  Account  have  been  withdrawn,  transferred or
         borrowed. No deferred sales charge  is imposed upon withdrawals of  any
         amount in excess of contributions.

         For the year ended December 31, 1994, $938,733 in participant loans has
         been  withdrawn from VCA-10 and $90,587 of principal has been repaid to
         VCA-10. For the year  ended December 31,  1993, $59,285 in  participant
         loans  had  been withdrawn  from VCA-10  and $0  of principal  had been
         repaid  to  VCA-10.  Loan  repayments  are  invested  in  Participant's
         account(s)  as chosen by the Participant,  which may not necessarily be
         VCA-10. The initial loan proceeds  may not necessarily have  originated
         solely from VCA-10.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT

(FROM THE 1994 MEDLEY REPORT TO PARTICIPANTS)

The  accompanying financial statements and all  information in the annual report
are the  responsibility of  management of  The Prudential  Insurance Company  of
America  (The  Prudential). These  financial  statements have  been  prepared in
accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  and  necessarily
include amounts based on best estimates and judgements. Information presented in
one section of the annual report is consistent with information dealing with the
same  or substantially similar subject matter  presented elsewhere in the annual
report.

The system of internal controls for VCA-11  is an integral part of that for  The
Prudential.  This system is designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets
are safeguarded  and that  transactions are  properly recorded  and executed  in
accordance  with proper  authorization. The  concept of  reasonable assurance is
based on the premise that  the cost of internal  controls should not exceed  the
benefits  derived. In addition, The Prudential maintains a professional staff of
internal auditors  who  monitor  VCA-11's  control  structure  through  periodic
reviews  and tests of the control aspects of accounting, financial and operating
activities. The  internal auditors  coordinate their  program with  that of  the
independent certified public accountants.

The  financial statements have been audited  by Deloitte & Touche LLP, Certified
Public Accountants.  The Independent  Auditors' Report,  which appears  in  this
annual  report, expresses an independent professional opinion on the fairness of
presentation, in all  material respects, of  management's financial  statements.
The  auditors review VCA-11's financial and  accounting controls and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements  are
free of material misstatement.

The  Prudential's Board  of Directors, through  its Auditing  Committee, and the
VCA-11 Committee monitor  management's fulfillment of  its responsibilities  for
accurate  accounting,  statement  preparation  and  protection  of  assets.  The
Auditing Committee  is  composed solely  of  outside directors  and  the  VCA-11
Committee  has a  majority of  outside members.  Both The  Prudential's Auditing
Committee and  the  outside  members  of the  VCA-11  Committee  meet  with  the
independent  certified  public  accountants,  management  and  internal auditors
periodically  to   evaluate  each   party's   execution  of   their   respective
responsibilities.  Each has free and separate  access to the Auditing and VCA-11
Committees to  discuss accounting,  financial  reporting, internal  control  and
auditing matters.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

TO  THE  COMMITTEE  OF  AND PERSONS  PARTICIPATING  IN  THE  PRUDENTIAL VARIABLE
CONTRACT ACCOUNT-11:

We have  audited the  accompanying statement  of net  assets of  The  Prudential
Variable  Contract Account-11 of The Prudential  Insurance Company of America as
of December 31,  1994, the  related statement of  operations for  the year  then
ended,  the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the
period then ended, and the condensed financial information for each of the  five
years  in  the  period  then ended.  These  financial  statements  and condensed
financial information are  the responsibility of  the Account's management.  Our
responsibility  is  to  express an  opinion  on these  financial  statements and
condensed financial information 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  condensed
financial  information  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 December  31, 1994, 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, such  financial statements and  condensed financial information
present fairly,  in  all  material  respects,  the  financial  position  of  The
Prudential  Variable Contract Account-11 as of December 31, 1994, the results of
its operations,  the changes  in  its net  assets  and the  condensed  financial
information  for  the respective  stated  periods in  conformity  with generally
accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF VCA-11
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 AND 1993
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1:  GENERAL

         The Prudential Variable Contract Account-11 (VCA-11 or the Account) was
         established  by  The  Prudential  Insurance  Company  of  America  (The
         Prudential) under the laws of the State of New Jersey and is registered
         as an  open-end, diversified  management investment  company under  the
         Investment  Company Act of  1940, as amended.  VCA-11 has been designed
         for  use   by  employers   (Contract-holders)  in   making   retirement
         arrangements   on  behalf   of  their   employees  (Participants).  Its
         investments  are  primarily  composed  of  short-term  securities.  All
         contractual and other obligations arising under contracts participating
         in VCA-11 are general corporate obligations of The Prudential, although
         Participants' payments from the Account will depend upon the investment
         experience of the Account.

NOTE 2:  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         A. SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

         Pursuant  to  an  exemptive  order  from  the  Securities  and Exchange
         Commission, securities having a remaining maturity of 397 days or  less
         are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value. Amortized
         cost  is computed using the  cost on the date  of purchase adjusted for
         constant accrual of  discount or amortization  of premium to  maturity.
         The  rate displayed is the effective yield from the date of purchase to
         the date of maturity.

         B. INCOME RECOGNITION

         Income  on  investments  is  allocated  to  the  Participants  and  The
         Prudential  on a daily basis in proportion to their respective equities
         in VCA-11. Interest income is accrued daily. Security transactions  are
         recorded on trade date.

         C. TAXES

         The  operations  of  VCA-11  are  part  of,  and  are  taxed  with, the
         operations of  The  Prudential. Under  the  current provisions  of  the
         Internal  Revenue Code, The Prudential does not expect to incur federal
         income taxes  on earnings  of VCA-11  to the  extent the  earnings  are
         credited under the contracts. As a result, the Unit Value of VCA-11 has
         not been reduced by federal income taxes.

NOTE 3:  EXPENSES

         A  daily charge, at  an effective annual  rate of 1.00%  of the current
         value of the Participant's equity in VCA-11, is paid to The Prudential.
         Three quarters of  this charge (0.75%)  is for administrative  expenses
         not  covered by the  annual account charge, and  one quarter (0.25%) is
         for investment management services.

NOTE 4:  ANNUAL ACCOUNT CHARGE

         An  annual  account  charge  is  deducted  from  the  account  of  each
         Participant  at  the time  of withdrawal  of  the value  of all  of the
         Participant's accounts  or  at  the  end  of  the  accounting  year  by
         cancelling Units. The charge will first be made against a Participant's
         account  under a fixed dollar annuity  companion contract or fixed rate
         option of the  non-qualified combination contract.  If the  Participant
         has  no account under a companion contract or the fixed rate option, or
         if the amount under the companion contract or the fixed rate option  is
         too  small  to pay  the charge,  the  charge will  be made  against the
         Participant's account  in  VCA-11. If  the  Participant has  no  VCA-11
         account,  or if the amount  under that account is  too small to pay the
         charge, the charge will then  be made against the Participant's  VCA-10
         account.  If the  Participant has  no VCA-10 account,  or if  it is too
         small to pay the charge, the charge  will then be made against any  one
         or  more of  the Participant's accounts  in VCA-24.  The annual account
         charge will not be greater than $20 and is paid to The Prudential.

NOTE 5:  DEFERRED SALES CHARGE

         A deferred  sales  charge  is  imposed upon  that  portion  of  certain
         withdrawals  which represents a return  of contributions. The charge is
         designed to compensate  The Prudential  for sales  and other  marketing
         expenses.  The  maximum deferred  sales charge  is 7%  on contributions
         withdrawn from an account during the first two years of  participation,
         6%  on contributions withdrawn during the third through fifth years, 4%
         on contributions withdrawn during the sixth through tenth years, and 3%
         on contributions withdrawn during the eleventh through fifteenth years.
         No deferred sales  charge is imposed  upon contributions withdrawn  for
         any  reason  after  fifteen years  of  participation in  a  Program. In
         addition, no deferred sales charge is imposed upon

NOTE 7:  PARTICIPANT LOANS

         Loans are considered to be withdrawals from the Account from which  the
         loan  amount was deducted, however, no deferred sales charge is imposed
         upon them. The principal portion  of any loan repayment, however,  will
         be  treated as a contribution to  the receiving Account for purposes of
         calculating any  deferred  sales  charge imposed  upon  any  subsequent
         withdrawal.  If the  Participant defaults on  the loan,  for example by
         failing to make required payments, the outstanding balance of the  loan
         will  be treated  as a  withdrawal for  purposes of  the deferred sales
         charge. The  deferred sales  charge  will be  withdrawn from  the  same
         Accumulation  Accounts, and in the same proportions, as the loan amount
         was withdrawn. If sufficient funds do not remain in those  Accumulation
         Accounts,  the  deferred  sales  charge  will  be  withdrawn  from  the
         Participant's other Accumulation Accounts as well.

         Withdrawals, transfers  and  loans from  VCA-11  are considered  to  be
         withdrawals   of   contributions   until  all   of   the  Participant's
         contributions to  the  Account  have  been  withdrawn,  transferred  or
         borrowed.  No deferred sales charge is  imposed upon withdrawals of any
         amount in excess of contributions.

         For the year ended December 31, 1994, $379,019 in participant loans has
         been withdrawn from VCA-11 and $27,165 of principal has been repaid  to
         VCA-11.  For the year  ended December 31,  1993, $24,363 in participant
         loans had  been withdrawn  from VCA-11  and $0  of principal  had  been
         repaid  to  VCA-11.  Loan  repayments  are  invested  in  Participant's
         account(s) as chosen by the  Participant, which may not necessarily  be
         VCA-11.  The initial loan proceeds  may not necessarily have originated
         solely from VCA-11.

NOTE 8:  NET DECREASE IN NET ASSETS RESULTING FROM SURPLUS TRANSFERS

         The decrease in net assets resulting from surplus transfers  represents
         the net withdrawals from the Equity of The Prudential from VCA-11.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT

(FROM THE 1994 MEDLEY REPORT TO PARTICIPANTS)

The  accompanying financial statements and all  information in the annual report
are the  responsibility of  management of  The Prudential  Insurance Company  of
America  (The  Prudential). These  financial  statements have  been  prepared in
accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  and  necessarily
include  amounts based on best estimates and judgments. Information presented in
one section of the annual report is consistent with information dealing with the
same or substantially similar subject  matter presented elsewhere in the  annual
report.

The  system of internal controls for VCA-24 is  an integral part of that for The
Prudential. This system is designed to provide reasonable assurance that  assets
are  safeguarded and  that transactions  are properly  recorded and  executed in
accordance with proper  authorization. The  concept of  reasonable assurance  is
based  on the premise that  the cost of internal  controls should not exceed the
benefits derived. In addition, The Prudential maintains a professional staff  of
internal  auditors  who  monitor  VCA-24's  control  structure  through periodic
reviews and tests of the control aspects of accounting, financial and  operating
activities.  The internal  auditors coordinate  their program  with that  of the
independent certified public accountants.

The financial statements have been audited  by Deloitte & Touche LLP,  Certified
Public  Accountants.  The Independent  Auditors' Report,  which appears  in this
annual report, expresses an independent professional opinion on the fairness  of
presentation,  in all  material respects, of  management's financial statements.
The auditors review VCA-24's financial  and accounting controls and perform  the
audit  to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement.

The Prudential's Board  of Directors, through  its Auditing Committee,  monitors
management's  fulfillment  of  its  responsibilities  for  accurate  accounting,
statement preparation  and  protection  of assets.  The  Auditing  Committee  is
composed  solely of outside  directors and meets  with the independent certified
public accountants, management  and internal auditors  periodically to  evaluate
each  party's execution of their respective  responsibilities. Each has free and
separate access  to  the Auditing  Committee  to discuss  accounting,  financial
reporting, internal control and auditing matters.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

TO  THE CONTRACT-HOLDERS OF THE PRUDENTIAL  VARIABLE CONTRACT ACCOUNT-24 AND THE
BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA:

We have audited  the accompanying  statements of  net assets  of The  Prudential
Variable  Contract  Account-24 of  The Prudential  Insurance Company  of America
(comprising,  respectively,  the  Common   Stock,  Bond,  Aggressively   Managed
Flexible,  Conservatively  Managed  Flexible, Stock  Index,  Global  Equity, and
Government  Securities  Subaccounts)  as  of  December  31,  1994,  the  related
statements  of operations for the year then ended, and the statements of changes
in net  assets for  each  of the  two  years in  the  period then  ended.  These
financial  statements are  the responsibility  of the  Account's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion  on these financial statements 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 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 December 31, 1994. 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,  such financial  statements  present fairly,  in  all  material
respects,   the  financial  position  of  each  of  the  respective  Subaccounts
constituting The  Prudential Variable  Contract Account-24  as of  December  31,
1994,  the results of their  operations and the changes  in their net assets for
the respective stated periods in  conformity with generally accepted  accounting
principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF VCA-24
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994 AND 1993
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1:  GENERAL

         The Prudential Variable Contract Account-24 (VCA-24 or the Account) was
         established  by  The  Prudential  Insurance  Company  of  America  (The
         Prudential) under the laws of the State of New Jersey and is registered
         as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
         amended.   VCA-24   has   been   designed   for   use   by    employers
         (Contract-holders) in making retirement arrangements on behalf of their
         employees (Participants).

         The  Account is comprised of seven Subaccounts. Each of the Subaccounts
         invests in a  corresponding portfolio  of The  Prudential Series  Fund,
         Inc.  (the Fund).  The Common  Stock Subaccount  invests in  the Common
         Stock Portfolio, the Bond Subaccount invests in the Bond Portfolio, the
         Aggressively Managed Flexible  Subaccount invests  in the  Aggressively
         Managed   Flexible  Portfolio,  the   Conservatively  Managed  Flexible
         Subaccount invests in  the Conservatively  Managed Flexible  Portfolio,
         the  Stock Index Subaccount  invests in the  Stock Index Portfolio, the
         Global Equity Subaccount  invests in the  Global Equity Portfolio,  and
         the   Government  Securities  Subaccount   invests  in  the  Government
         Securities Portfolio.  All contractual  and other  obligations  arising
         under   contracts  participating   in  VCA-24   are  general  corporate
         obligations of The Prudential, although Participants' payments from the
         Account will depend upon the investment experience of the Account.

NOTE 2:  INVESTMENT INFORMATION

         The number of shares of each portfolio of the Fund, the Net Asset Value
         (NAV) per share for each portfolio  held by the Subaccounts of  VCA-24,
         and the aggregate cost of investments in such shares as of December 31,
         1994 are as follows:

NOTE 3:  EXPENSES

         A  daily charge at an  effective annual rate of  0.75% of the Net Asset
         Value of  each Subaccount  of  VCA-24 is  paid  to The  Prudential  for
         administrative expenses not covered by the annual account charge.

NOTE 4:  ANNUAL ACCOUNT CHARGE

         An  annual  account  charge  is  deducted  from  the  account  of  each
         Participant at  the time  of withdrawal  of  the value  of all  of  the
         Participant's  accounts  or  at  the  end  of  the  accounting  year by
         cancelling Units. The charge will first be made against a Participant's
         account under a fixed dollar  annuity companion contract or fixed  rate
         option  of the  non-qualified combination contract.  If the Participant
         has no account under a companion contract or the fixed rate option,  or
         if  the amount under the companion contract or the fixed rate option is
         too small  to pay  the charge,  the  charge will  be made  against  the
         Participant's  account  in VCA-11.  If  the Participant  has  no VCA-11
         account or if the  amount under that  account is too  small to pay  the
         charge,  the charge will then be  made against the Participant's VCA-10
         account. If the  Participant has  no VCA-10 account,  or if  it is  too
         small  to pay the charge, the charge  will then be made against any one
         or more of  the Participant's  accounts in VCA-24.  The annual  account
         charge will not exceed $20 and is paid to The Prudential.

NOTE 5:  DEFERRED SALES CHARGE

         A  deferred  sales charge  is imposed  upon  the withdrawal  of certain
         purchase payments  to compensate  The Prudential  for sales  and  other
         marketing  expenses.  The  maximum  deferred  sales  charge  is  7%  on
         contributions withdrawn during the first two years of participation, 6%
         on contributions withdrawn during the third through fifth years, 4%  on
         contributions withdrawn during the sixth through tenth years, and 3% on
         contributions withdrawn during the eleventh through fifteenth years. No
         deferred  sales charge is imposed  upon contributions withdrawn for any
         reason after fifteen years of participation in a Program. In  addition,
         no  deferred sales charge is  imposed upon contributions withdrawn: (a)
         to purchase an annuity under a Prudential Group

         Participant by the Contract-Holder (for all plans other than IRAs); (d)
         pursuant to a  systematic withdrawal  plan; (e) in  cases of  financial
         hardship  or  disability  retirement  as  determined  pursuant  to  the
         provisions of the employer's retirement arrangement; or (f) as loans.

NOTE 6:  TAXES

         The operations  of  VCA-24  are  part  of,  and  are  taxed  with,  the
         operations  of  The Prudential.  Under  the current  provisions  of the
         Internal Revenue Code, The Prudential does not expect to incur  federal
         income  taxes  on earnings  of VCA-24  to the  extent the  earnings are
         credited under the Contract. As a result, the Unit Value of VCA-24  has
         not been reduced by federal income taxes.

NOTE 8:  PARTICIPANT LOANS

         Loans  are considered to be withdrawals  from the Subaccount from which
         the loan  amount was  deducted, however,  no deferred  sales charge  is
         imposed  upon  them.  The  principal  portion  of  any  loan repayment,
         however, will be treated as a contribution to the receiving  Subaccount
         for  purposes of calculating any deferred sales charge imposed upon any
         subsequent withdrawal. If the Participant defaults on the loan by,  for
         example  failing to make required  payments, the outstanding balance of
         the loan will be treated as  a withdrawal for purposes of the  deferred
         sales charge. The deferred sales charge will be withdrawn from the same
         Accumulation  Accounts, and in the same proportions, as the loan amount
         was withdrawn. If sufficient funds do not remain in those  Accumulation
         Accounts,  the  deferred  sales  charge  will  be  withdrawn  from  the
         Participant's other Accumulation Accounts as well.

         Withdrawals, transfers and  loans from  each Subaccount  of VCA-24  are
         considered  to  be  withdrawals  of  contributions  until  all  of  the
         Participant's contributions  to  the Subaccount  have  been  withdrawn,
         transferred  or  borrowed. No  deferred  sales charge  is  imposed upon
         withdrawals of any amount in excess of contributions.

         For the year ended December 31,  1994, the amount of participant  loans
         that  has  been  withdrawn  from  the  Subaccounts  and  the  amount of
         principal that has been repaid to the Subaccounts is as follows:

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT

   
(FROM PRUDENTIAL'S 1994 ANNUAL REPORT)
    

The  accompanying consolidated financial  statements and all  information in the
annual report are the responsibility of  management. They have been prepared  in
conformity  with  accounting  practices  prescribed  or  permitted  by insurance
regulatory  authorities  and  generally  accepted  accounting  principles.   The
statements  necessarily include amounts based on management's best estimates and
judgments. Information  presented  in  one  section  of  the  annual  report  is
consistent  with  information dealing  with  the same  or  substantially similar
subject matter presented elsewhere in the annual report.

Management depends upon the Company's system of internal controls in meeting its
responsibilities for reliable financial statements.  This system is designed  to
provide  reasonable assurance that assets  are safeguarded and that transactions
are  properly   recorded   and   executed  in   accordance   with   management's
authorization.  The concept of reasonable assurance is based on the premise that
the cost  of internal  controls  should not  exceed  the benefits  derived.  The
control  environment  is enhanced  by the  selection  and training  of competent
management, a business ethics policy demanding the highest standards of  conduct
by  employees in carrying out the Company's affairs, organizational arrangements
that provide for  segregation of  duties and  delegation of  authority, and  the
communication   of   accounting   and   operating   procedures   throughout  the
organization. In  addition,  the  Company  maintains  a  professional  staff  of
internal  auditors who monitor the  Company's control structure through periodic
reviews and tests of the control aspects of accounting, financial and  operating
activities.  The internal  auditors coordinate  their program  with that  of the
independent certified public accountants.

   
Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent accountants, have audited and reported on the
Company's consolidated  financial statements.  Their  audits were  performed  in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
    

The  Board of Directors,  through the Auditing  Committee, monitors management's
fulfillment  of  its   responsibilities  for   accurate  accounting,   statement
preparation  and protection of assets. The Auditing Committee is composed solely
of  outside  directors  and  meets  with  the  independent  public  accountants,
management  and internal auditors periodically to evaluate the discharge by each
of their respective responsibilities. Each has  free and separate access to  the
Committee  to  discuss  accounting, financial  reporting,  internal  control and
auditing matters.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
          THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA AND SUBSIDIARIES

              FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRINCIPLES

   A. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

      The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
      The Prudential Insurance Company of America ("The Prudential"), a mutual
      life insurance company, and its subsidiaries (collectively, "the
      Company"). The activities of the Company cover a broad range of financial
      services, including life and health insurance, property and casualty
      insurance, reinsurance, group health care, securities brokerage, asset
      management, investment advisory services, mortgage banking and servicing,
      and real estate development and brokerage. All significant intercompany
      balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

   B. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      The consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with
      generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), which for mutual life
      insurance companies and their insurance subsidiaries are statutory
      accounting practices prescribed or permitted by regulatory authorities in
      the domiciliary states. Certain reclassifications have been made to the
      1993 and 1992 financial statements to conform to the 1994 presentation. 

      In 1994, The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
      Statement of Position 94-5, "Disclosures of Certain Matters in the
      Financial Statements of Insurance Enterprises" ("SOP 94-5"), which
      requires insurance enterprises to disclose in their financial statements
      the accounting methods used in their statutory financial statements that
      are permitted by the state insurance departments rather than prescribed
      statutory accounting practices.

      The Prudential, domiciled in the State of New Jersey, prepares its
      statutory financial statements in accordance with accounting practices
      prescribed or permitted by the New Jersey Department of Insurance ("the
      Department"). Its insurance subsidiaries prepare statutory financial
      statements in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted
      by their respective domiciliary home state insurance departments.
      Prescribed statutory accounting practices include publications of the
      National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC"), state laws,
      regulations, and general administrative rules. Permitted statutory
      accounting practices encompass all accounting practices not so prescribed.

      In 1993, The Prudential issued Fixed Rate Capital Notes ("the notes").
      Interest payments on the notes are pre-approved by the Department, and
      principal repayment is subject to a Risk-Based Capital test. This
      permitted accounting practice differs from that prescribed by the NAIC.
      The NAIC practices provide for Insurance Commissioner approval of every
      interest and principal payment before the payment is made. The Prudential
      has included the notes as part of surplus (see Note 7).

      The Prudential has established guaranty fund liabilities for the
      insolvencies of certain life insurance companies. The liabilities were
      established net of estimated premium tax credits and federal income tax.
      Prescribed statutory accounting practices do not address the establishment
      of liabilities for guaranty fund assessments.

      The Company, with permission from the Department, prepares an Annual
      Report that differs from the Annual Statement filed with the Department in
      that subsidiaries are consolidated and certain financial statement
      captions are presented differently.

   C. FUTURE APPLICATION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

      The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Financial
      Interpretation No. 40, "Applicability of Generally Accepted Accounting
      Principles to Mutual Life Insurance and Other Enterprises," which, as
      amended, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995.
      Interpretation No. 40 changes the current practice of mutual life
      insurance companies with respect to utilizing statutory basis financial
      statements for general purposes in that it would not allow such financial
      statements to be referred to as having been prepared in accordance with
      GAAP. Interpretation No. 40 requires GAAP financial statements of mutual
      life insurance companies to apply all GAAP pronouncements, unless
      specifically exempted. Implementation of Interpretation No. 40 will
      require significant effort and judgment as to determining GAAP for mutual
      insurance companies' insurance operations. The Company is currently
      assessing the impact of Interpretation No. 40 on its consolidated
      financial statements.

   D. INVESTED ASSETS

      Fixed maturities, which include long-term bonds and redeemable preferred
      stock, are stated primarily at amortized cost. Equity securities, which
      consist primarily of common stocks, are carried at market value, which is
      based on quoted market prices, where available, or prices provided by
      state regulatory authorities.

                                      F-3

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
          THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA AND SUBSIDIARIES

              FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992

      As of January 1, 1994, the non-insurance subsidiaries of The Prudential
      adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting
      for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" ("SFAS No. 115").
      Under SFAS No. 115, debt and marketable equity securities are classified
      in three categories: held-to-maturity, available-for-sale and trading. The
      effect of adopting SFAS No. 115 for the non-insurance subsidiaries was not
      material.

      Mortgage loans are stated primarily at unpaid principal balances. In
      establishing reserves for losses on mortgage loans, management considers
      expected losses on loans which they believe may not be collectible in full
      and expected losses on foreclosures and the sale of mortgage loans.
      Reserves established for potential or estimated mortgage loan losses are
      included in the "Asset valuation reserve."

      Policy loans are stated primarily at unpaid principal balances.

      Investment real estate, except for real estate acquired in satisfaction of
      debt, is carried at cost less accumulated straight-line depreciation ($748
      million in 1994 and $859 million in 1993), encumbrances and permanent
      impairments in value. Real estate acquired in satisfaction of debt,
      included in "Other assets," is carried at the lower of cost or fair value
      less disposition costs. Fair value is considered to be the amount that
      could reasonably be expected in a current transaction between willing
      parties, other than in forced or liquidation sale.

      Included in "Other long-term investments" is the Company's net equity in
      joint ventures and other forms of partnerships, which amounted to $3,357
      million and $3,745 million as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.
      The Company's share of net income from such entities was $354 million,
      $375 million and $185 million for 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

      Short-term investments are stated at amortized cost, which approximates
      fair value.

      Securities purchased under agreements to resell and securities sold under
      agreements to repurchase are collateralized financing transactions and are
      carried at their contract amounts plus accrued interest. These agreements
      are generally collateralized by cash or securities with market values in
      excess of the obligations under the contract. It is the Company's policy
      to take possession of securities purchased under resale agreements and to
      value the securities daily. The Company monitors the value of the
      underlying collateral and collateral is adjusted when necessary.

      Trading account securities from broker-dealer operations are reported
      based upon quoted market prices with unrealized gains and losses reported
      in "Broker-dealer revenue."

      The Company has a securities lending program whereby large blocks of
      securities are loaned to third parties, primarily major brokerage firms.
      As of December 31, 1994 and 1993, the estimated fair values of loaned
      securities were $6,765 million and $6,520 million, respectively. Company
      and NAIC policies require a minimum of 102% and 105% of the fair value of
      the domestic and foreign loaned securities, respectively, to be separately
      maintained as collateral for the loans. Cash collateral received is
      invested in "Short-term investments," which are reflected as assets in the
      Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The offsetting collateral
      liability is included in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position
      in "Other liabilities" in the amounts of $2,385 million and $374 million
      at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Non-cash collateral is
      recorded in memorandum records and not reflected in the consolidated
      financial statements.

      Net unrealized investment gains and losses result principally from changes
      in the carrying values of invested assets. Net unrealized investment
      losses were $(32) million, $(195) million and $(268) million for the years
      ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

      The asset valuation reserve (AVR) and the interest maintenance reserve
      (IMR) are required reserves for life insurance companies. The AVR is
      calculated based on a statutory formula and is designed to mitigate the
      effect of valuation and credit-related losses on unassigned surplus.

                                            ======    ======
</TABLE>


      In 1993, the Company made a voluntary contribution to the mortgage loan
      component of the AVR in the amount of $305 million.

      The IMR is designed to reduce the fluctuations of surplus resulting from
      market interest rate movements. Interest rate-related realized capital
      gains and losses are generally deferred and amortized into investment
      income over the remaining life of the investment sold. The IMR balance,
      included in "Other policyholders' funds," was $502 million and $1,539
      million at December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. Net realized
      investment (losses)/gains of $(929) million, $1,082 million and $626
      million were deferred during the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and
      1992, respectively. IMR amounts amortized into investment income were $107
      million, $118 million and $51 million for the years ended December 31,
      1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

   E. FUTURE POLICY BENEFITS, LOSSES AND CLAIMS

      Reserves for individual life insurance are calculated using various
      methods, interest rates and mortality tables, which produce reserves that
      meet the aggregate requirements of state laws and regulations.
      Approximately 39% of individual life insurance reserves are determined
      using the net level premium method, or by using the greater of a net level
      premium reserve or the policy cash value. About 56% of individual life
      insurance reserves are calculated according to the Commissioner's Reserve
      Valuation Method ("CRVM") or methods which compare CRVM reserves to policy
      cash values.

      For group life insurance, 24% of reserves are determined using net level
      premium methods and various mortality tables and interest rates. About 53%
      of group life reserves are associated with extended death benefits. For
      the most part, these are calculated using modified group tables at various
      interest rates. The remainder of group life reserves are unearned premium
      reserves (calculated using the 1960 Commissioner's Standard Group Table),
      reserves for group life fund accumulations and other miscellaneous
      reserves. Reserves for group and individual annuity contracts are
      determined using the Commissioner's Annuity Reserve Valuation Method.

      For life insurance and annuities, unpaid claims include estimates of both
      the death benefits on reported claims and those which are incurred but not
      reported. Unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses for other than life
      insurance and annuities include estimates of benefits and associated
      settlement expenses for reported losses and a provision for losses
      incurred but not reported.

      As a result of changes in estimates of insured events in prior years, the
      declines of $105 million and $167 million in the provision for claims and
      claim adjustment expenses for accident and health business in 1994 and
      1993, respectively, were due to lower-than-expected trends in claim costs
      and an accelerated decline in indemnity health business.

      As a result of changes in estimates of insured events in prior years, the
      provision for claims and claim adjustment expenses for property and
      casualty business (net of reinsurance recoveries of $47 million and $120
      million in 1994 and 1993, respectively) increased by $158 million and $109
      million in 1994 and 1993, respectively, due to increased loss development
      and reserve strengthening for asbestos and environmental claims.

   F. REVENUE RECOGNITION AND RELATED EXPENSES

      Life premiums are recognized as income over the premium paying period of
      the related policies. Annuity considerations are recognized as revenue
      when received.

      Health and property and casualty premiums are earned ratably over the
      terms of the related insurance and reinsurance contracts or policies.
      Unearned premium reserves are established to cover the unexpired portion
      of premiums written. Such reserves are computed by pro rata methods for
      direct business and are computed either by pro rata methods or using
      reports received from ceding companies for reinsurance. Premiums which
      have not yet been reported are estimated and accrued.

      Expenses incurred in connection with acquiring new insurance business,
      including such acquisition costs as sales commissions, are charged to
      operations as incurred in "Insurance and underwriting expenses."

      Commission revenues in "Broker-dealer revenue" and related broker-dealer
      expenses in "General, administrative and other expenses" are accrued when
      transactions are executed.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
          THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA AND SUBSIDIARIES

              FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992

   G. INCOME TAXES

      Under the Internal Revenue Code ("the Code"), The Prudential and its life
      insurance subsidiaries are taxed on their gain from operations after
      dividends to policyholders. In calculating this tax, the Code requires the
      capitalization and amortization of policy acquisition expenses.

      The Code also imposes an "equity tax" on mutual life insurance companies
      based on an imputed surplus which, in effect, reduces the deduction for
      policyholder dividends. The amount of the equity tax is estimated in the
      current year based on the anticipated equity tax rate, and is adjusted in
      subsequent years as the rate is finalized.

      The Prudential files a consolidated federal income tax return with all of
      its domestic subsidiaries. The provision for taxes reported in these
      financial statements also includes tax liabilities for the foreign
      subsidiaries. Net operating losses of the non-life subsidiaries may be
      used in this consolidated return, but are limited each year to the lesser
      of 35% of cumulative eligible non-life subsidiary losses or 35% of life
      company taxable income.

      As of January 1, 1993, the non-insurance subsidiaries of The Prudential
      adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting
      for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109"). Under SFAS No. 109, such subsidiaries
      recognize deferred tax liabilities or assets for the expected future tax
      consequences of events that have been recognized in their financial
      statements. Included in "Income tax (benefit)/provision" are deferred
      taxes of $(477) million, $21 million and $(8) million for the years ended
      December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The cumulative effect of
      adopting SFAS No. 109 was not material.

      At December 31, 1994, the Company had consolidated non-life tax loss
      carryforwards of $598 million which will expire between 1998 and 2009, if
      not utilized.

   H. SEPARATE ACCOUNTS

      Separate Account assets and liabilities, reported in the Consolidated
      Statements of Financial Position at estimated market value, represent
      segregated funds which are administered for pension and other clients. The
      assets consist of common stocks, long-term bonds, real estate, mortgages
      and short-term investments. The liabilities consist of reserves
      established to meet withdrawal and future benefit payment contractual
      provisions. Investment risks associated with market value changes are
      generally borne by the clients, except to the extent of minimum guarantees
      made by the Company with respect to certain accounts. Separate Account net
      investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses,
      benefit payments and change in reserves are included in "Current and
      future benefits and claims."

   I. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

      Derivatives used for trading purposes are recorded in the Consolidated
      Statements of Financial Position at fair value at the reporting date.
      Realized and unrealized changes in fair values are recognized in
      "Broker-dealer revenue" and "Other income" in the Consolidated Statements
      of Operations in the period in which the changes occur. Gains and losses
      on hedges of existing assets or liabilities are included in the carrying
      amount of those assets or liabilities and are deferred and recognized in
      earnings in the same period as the underlying hedged item. For interest
      rate swaps that qualify for settlement accounting, the interest
      differential to be paid or received under the swap agreements is accrued
      over the life of the agreements as a yield adjustment. Gains and losses on
      early termination of derivatives that modify the characteristics of
      designated assets and liabilities are deferred and are amortized as an
      adjustment to the yield of the related assets or liabilities over their
      remaining lives.

      Derivatives used in activities that support life and health insurance and
      annuity contracts are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and
      losses recorded in "Net unrealized investment (losses) and change in AVR."
      Upon termination of derivatives supporting life and health insurance and
      annuity contracts, the interest-related gains and losses are amortized
      through the IMR.

2. RESTRICTED ASSETS AND SPECIAL DEPOSITS

   Assets in the amounts of $5,901 million and $5,164 million at December 31,
   1994 and 1993, respectively, were on deposit with governmental authorities or
   trustees as required by law. 

   Assets valued at $5,855 million and $4,430 million at December 31, 1994 and
   1993, respectively, were maintained as compensating balances or pledged as
   collateral for bank loans and other financing agreements.

   Proceeds from the sale and maturity of fixed maturities during 1994, 1993 and
   1992 were $82,834 million, $87,840 million and $73,326 million, respectively.
   Gross gains of $693 million, $2,473 million and $2,034 million, and gross
   losses of $2,009 million, $698 million and $530 million were realized on such
   sales during 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively (see Note 1D).

   The Company invests in both investment grade and non-investment grade
   securities. The Securities Valuation Office of the NAIC rates the fixed
   maturities held by insurers (which account for approximately 98% of the
   Company's total fixed maturities balance at December 31, 1994 and 1993) for
   regulatory purposes and groups investments into six categories ranging from
   highest quality bonds to those in or near default. The lowest three NAIC
   categories represent, for the most part, high-yield securities and are
   defined by the NAIC as including any security with a public agency rating of
   B+ or B1 or less.

5. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

  A. PENSION PLANS

     The Company has several defined benefit pension plans which cover
     substantially all of its employees. The benefits are generally based on
     career average earnings and credited length of service.

     The Company's funding policy is to contribute annually the amount necessary
     to satisfy the Internal Revenue Service contribution guidelines. The
     pension plans are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial
     Accounting Standards No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions" ("SFAS
     No. 87").

     Employee pension benefit plan status at September 30, 1994 and 1993 is as

          THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA AND SUBSIDIARIES

              FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992

      Plan assets consist primarily of equity securities, bonds, real estate and
      short-term investments, of which $4,155 million are included in the
      Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at December 31, 1994.

      In compliance with statutory accounting principles, The Prudential's
      prepaid pension costs of $765 million and $784 million at December 31,
      1994 and 1993, respectively, were considered non-admitted assets. These
      assets are excluded from the consolidated assets and the changes in these
      non-admitted assets of ($19) million and $142 million in 1994 and 1993,
      respectively, are reported in "General, administrative and other expenses"
      in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

      The components of the net periodic pension expense/(benefit) for 1994 and
      1993 are as follows:

   The net expense relating to the Company's pension plans is $28 million, $23
   million and $29 million in 1994, 1993 and 1992, respectively, which considers
   the changes in The Prudential's non-admitted prepaid pension asset of $(19)
   million, $142 million and $117 million, respectively.

   As a result of a special early retirement program, net curtailment gains and
   special termination benefits of approximately $156 million are included in
   the net periodic pension expense for the year ended December 31, 1994.

   B. POSTRETIREMENT AND POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS

      The Company provides certain life insurance and health care benefits for
      its retired employees. Substantially all of the Company's employees may
      become eligible to receive a benefit if they retire after age 55 with at
      least 10 years of service.

      Effective in 1993, the costs of postretirement benefits, with respect to
      The Prudential, are recognized in accordance with the accounting policy
      issued by the NAIC. The NAIC's policy is similar to Statement of Financial
      Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement
      Benefits Other Than Pensions," except that the NAIC policy excludes
      non-vested employees. The Prudential has elected to amortize its
      transition obligation over 20 years.

      Prior to 1993, the Company's policy was to fund the cost of providing
      these benefits in the years that the employees were providing services to
      the Company. The Company defined this service period as originating at an
      assumed entry age and terminating at an average retirement age. Annual
      deposits to the fund were determined using the entry age normal actuarial
      cost method, including amortization of prior service costs for employees'
      services rendered prior to the initial funding of the plan. The provision
      for the year ended December 31, 1992 was $143 million.

      The Prudential's net periodic postretirement benefit cost required to be
      recognized for 1994 and 1993, under the NAIC policy is $110 million and
      $125 million, respectively. In 1994 and 1993, The Prudential voluntarily
      accrued an additional $10 million and $62 million, respectively, which
      represents a portion of the obligation for active non-vested employees
      (the total of this obligation is $520 million and $594 million as of
      December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively).

      Company funding of its postretirement benefit obligations totaled $31
      million and $404 million in 1994 and 1993, respectively. The Company
      contributes amounts to the plan in excess of covered expenses being paid.

   Plan assets consist of group and individual variable life insurance policies,
   group life and health contracts and short-term investments, of which $996
   million are included in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at
   December 31, 1994.

   In compliance with statutory accounting principles, The Prudential's prepaid
   postretirement benefit costs of $127 million and $217 million at December 31,
   1994 and 1993, respectively, are considered non-admitted assets. These assets
   are excluded from the consolidated assets and the changes in these
   non-admitted assets of $(90) million and $217 million in 1994 and 1993,
   respectively, are reported in "General, administrative and other expenses" in
   1994 and in "Issuance of capital notes" in 1993.

          THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA AND SUBSIDIARIES

              FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992

      The health care cost trend rates used varied from 9.1% to 13.9%, depending
      on the plan, with one plan being graded to 6.5% by the year 2012 and all
      others being graded to 6.0% by 2006. Increasing the health care cost trend
      rate by one percentage point in each year would increase the
      postretirement benefit obligation as of September 30, 1994, by $243
      million and the total of the cost of newly eligible or vested employees
      and interest cost for 1994 by $21 million.

      In 1994, the Company changed its method of accounting for the recognition
      of costs and obligations relating to severance, disability and related
      benefits to former or inactive employees after employment, but before
      retirement, to an accrual method. Previously, these benefits were expensed
      when paid. The effect of this change was to decrease surplus by
      approximately $160 million in 1994.

</TABLE>


   Scheduled repayments of long-term debt as of December 31, 1994, are as
   follows: $594 million in 1995, $269 million in 1996, $362 million in 1997,
   $268 million in 1998, $666 million in 1999, and $662 million thereafter. As
   of December 31, 1994, the Company had $8,120 million in lines of credit from
   numerous financial institutions of which $3,925 million were unused.

7. CAPITAL NOTES

   In 1993, The Prudential issued 6.875% Fixed Rate Capital Notes ("the notes")
   in the aggregate principal amount of $300 million. The notes mature on April
   15, 2003, and may not be redeemed prior to maturity and will not be entitled
   to any sinking fund. The notes are subordinated in right of payment to all
   claims of policyholders and to senior indebtedness. Payment of the principal
   amount of the notes at maturity is subject to the following conditions: (i)
   The Prudential shall not be in payment default with respect to any senior
   indebtedness or class of policyholders, (ii) no state or federal agency shall
   have instituted proceedings seeking reorganization, rehabilitation or
   liquidation of The Prudential, and (iii) immediately after making such
   payment, Total Adjusted Capital would exceed 200% of its Authorized Control
   Level Risk-Based Capital. The terms "Total Adjusted Capital" and "Authorized
   Control Level" are defined by the Risk-Based Capital for Life and/or Health
   Insurers Model Act. The payment of interest on the notes is subject to
   satisfaction of conditions (i) and (ii) above. Unpaid accrued interest
   amounted to $25 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993. The net proceeds from
   the notes, approximately $298 million, were contributed to a voluntary
   employee benefit association trust to prefund certain obligations of The
   Prudential to provide postretirement medical and other benefits. This
   resulted in a prepaid asset, which is non-admitted for statutory purposes.
   The net increase to surplus from the issuance of the notes, including a tax
   benefit of $104 million less the charge-off of the non-admitted asset of $217
   million, was $185 million (see Note 5B).

8. SPECIAL SURPLUS FUND

   The special surplus fund includes required contingency reserves of $1,097
   million and $1,091 million as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

9. FAIR VALUE INFORMATION

   The fair value amounts have been determined by the Company using available
   information and reasonable valuation methodologies for those accounts for
   which fair value disclosures are required. Considerable judgment is
   necessarily applied in interpreting data to develop the estimates of fair
   value. Accordingly, the estimates presented may not be realized in a current
   market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation
   methodologies could have a material effect on the estimated fair values. The
   following methods and assumptions were used in calculating the fair values.
   (For all other financial instruments presented in the table, the carrying
   value is a reasonable estimate of fair value.)

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
          THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA AND SUBSIDIARIES

              FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992

   FIXED MATURITIES. Fair values for fixed maturities, other than private
   placement securities, are based on quoted market prices or estimates from
   independent pricing services. Fair values for private placement securities
   are estimated using a discounted cash flow model which considers the current
   market spreads between the U.S. Treasury yield curve and corporate bond yield
   curve, adjusted for the type of issue, its current quality and its remaining
   average life. The fair value of certain non-performing private placement
   securities is based on amounts provided by state regulatory authorities.

   MORTGAGE LOANS. The fair value of residential mortgages is based on recent
   market trades or quotes, adjusted where necessary for differences in risk
   characteristics. The fair value of the commercial mortgage and agricultural
   loan portfolio is primarily based upon the present value of the scheduled
   cash flows discounted at the appropriate U.S. Treasury rate, adjusted for the
   current market spread for a similar quality mortgage. For certain
   non-performing and other loans, fair value is based upon the value of the
   underlying collateral.

   POLICY LOANS. The estimated fair value of policy loans is calculated using a
   discounted cash flow model based upon current U.S. Treasury rates and
   historical loan repayments.

   DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS. The fair value of swap agreements is
   estimated based on the present value of future cash flows under the
   agreements discounted at the applicable zero coupon U.S. Treasury rate and
   swap spread. The fair value of forwards and futures is estimated based on
   market quotes for a transaction with similar terms, while the fair value of
   options is based principally on market quotes. The fair value of loan
   commitments is estimated based on fees actually charged or those currently
   charged for similar arrangements, adjusted for changes in interest rates and
   credit quality subsequent to origination.

   INVESTMENT-TYPE INSURANCE CONTRACT LIABILITIES. Fair values for the Company's
   investment-type insurance contract liabilities are estimated using a
   discounted cash flow model, based on interest rates currently being offered
   for similar contracts.

   NOTES PAYABLE AND OTHER BORROWINGS. The estimated fair value of notes payable
   and other borrowings is based on the borrowing rates currently available to
   the Company for debt with similar terms and maturities.

   The following table discloses the carrying amounts and estimated fair values
   of the Company's financial instruments at December 31, 1994 and 1993:

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
          THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA AND SUBSIDIARIES

              FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992

10. DERIVATIVE AND OFF-BALANCE-SHEET CREDIT-RELATED INSTRUMENTS

    A.  DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

        Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 119, "Disclosures about
        Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial
        Instruments," effective for 1994, requires certain disclosures about
        derivative financial instruments and other financial instruments with
        similar characteristics ("derivatives"). Derivatives include swaps,
        forwards, futures, options and loan commitments subject to market risk,
        all of which are used by the Company in the normal course of business in
        both trading and other than trading activities.

        The Company uses derivatives in trading activities primarily to meet the
        financing and hedging needs of its customers and to trade for its own
        account. The Company also uses derivatives for purposes other than
        trading to reduce exposure to interest rate, currency and other forms of
        market risk.

        The table below summarizes the Company's outstanding positions by
        derivative instrument as of December 31,1994. The amounts presented are
        classified as either trading or other than trading, based on
        management's intent at the time of contract inception and throughout the
        life of the contract. The table includes the estimated fair values of
        outstanding derivative positions only and does not include the fair
        values of associated financial and non-financial assets and liabilities,
        which generally offset derivative fair values. The fair value amounts
        presented do not reflect the netting of amounts pursuant to rights of
        setoff, qualifying master netting agreements with counterparties or
        collateral arrangements. The table shows that less than 5% of derivative
        fair values were not reflected in the Company's Consolidated Statement
        of Financial Position.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
          THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA AND SUBSIDIARIES

              FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992

   DERIVATIVES HELD FOR TRADING PURPOSES. The Company uses derivatives for
   trading purposes in securities broker-dealer activities and in a
   limited-purpose swap subsidiary. Net trading revenues for the year ended
   December 31, 1994, relating to forwards, futures and swaps were $107 million,
   $33 million and $8 million, respectively. Net trading revenues for options
   were not material. Average fair value for trading derivatives in an asset
   position during the year ended December 31, 1994, was $1,526 million and for
   derivatives in a liability position was $1,671 million. Of those derivatives
   held for trading purposes at December 31, 1994, 60.0% of notional consisted
   of interest rate derivatives, 33.7% consisted of foreign exchange
   derivatives, and 6.3% consisted of equity and commodity derivatives.

   DERIVATIVES HELD FOR PURPOSES OTHER THAN TRADING. Of the total notional of
   derivatives held for purposes other than trading at December 31, 1994, 23.0%
   were used by the Company to hedge its investment portfolio to reduce interest
   rate, currency and other market risks, 75.8% were used to hedge interest rate
   risk related to the Company's mortgage banking subsidiary activities, and
   1.2% were used to hedge interest and currency risks associated with the
   Company's debt issuances. Of those derivatives held for purposes other than
   trading at December 31, 1994, 85.0% of notional consisted of interest rate
   derivatives, 13.9% consisted of foreign exchange derivatives, and 1.1%
   consisted of equity and commodity derivatives.

   Derivatives used to hedge the Company's investment portfolio, including
   futures, options and forwards, are typically short-term in nature and are
   intended to minimize exposure to market fluctuations or to change the
   characteristics of the Company's asset/liability mix, consistent with the
   Company's risk management activities. At December 31, 1994, net gains of $0.7
   million relating to futures used as hedges of anticipated bond investments
   were deferred and included in "Other liabilities." The investments being
   hedged are expected to be made in the first quarter of 1995. The Company's
   mortgage banking subsidiary hedges the interest rate risk associated with
   mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities held for sale and with unfunded
   loans for which a rate of interest has been guaranteed. At December 31, 1994,
   net gains of $0.8 million relating to forwards, futures and options used as
   hedges of unfunded loan commitments were deferred as "Other liabilities." The
   deferred gains were included in the carrying amounts of the loans when
   funded, which is generally within sixty days from the commitment date. The
   Company's mortgage banking subsidiary also hedges its exposure to future
   changes in interest rates on interest-sensitive liabilities and hedges the
   prepayment risk associated with its mortgage servicing portfolio. At December
   31, 1994, net gains of $6.5 million relating to futures used as hedges of
   anticipated borrowings were deferred and included in "Other liabilities." The
   borrowings being hedged are expected to be issued by early 1996. The Company
   also uses derivatives, particularly swaps and forwards, to manage the
   interest rate and foreign exchange risks associated with its notes payable
   and other borrowings.

B. OFF-BALANCE-SHEET CREDIT-RELATED INSTRUMENTS

   During the normal course of its business, the Company is party to financial
   instruments with off-balance-sheet credit risk such as commitments, financial
   guarantees, loans sold with recourse and letters of credit. Commitments
   include commitments to purchase and sell mortgage loans, the unfunded portion
   of commitments to fund investments in private placement securities, and
   unused credit card and home equity lines. The Company also provides financial
   guarantees incidental to other transactions and letters of credit that
   guarantee the performance of customers to third parties. These credit-related
   financial instruments have off-balance-sheet credit risk because only their
   origination fees, if any, and accruals for probable losses, if any, are
   recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position until the
   obligation under the instrument is fulfilled or expires. These instruments
   can extend for several years and expirations are not concentrated in any
   period. The Company seeks to control credit risk associated with these
   instruments by limiting credit, maintaining collateral where customary and
   appropriate, and performing other monitoring procedures.

   The notional amount of these instruments, which represents the Company's
   maximum exposure to credit loss from other parties' non-performance, was
   $17,389 million and $18,666 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993,
   respectively. Because many of these amounts expire without being advanced in
   whole or in part, the amounts do not represent future cash flows. The above
   notional amounts include $4,150 million and $3,066 million of unused
   available lines of credit under credit card and home equity commitments as of
   December 31, 1994 and 1993, respectively. The Company has not experienced,
   and does not anticipate experiencing, all of its customers exercising their
   entire available lines of credit at any given point in time.

   The estimated fair value of off-balance-sheet credit related instruments was
   $(91.3) million and $13.0 million at December 31, 1994 and 1993,
   respectively. The total fair value at December 31, 1994, includes $(13.3)
   million for fixed-rate loan commitments, which are subject to market risk.
   The estimated fair value was determined based on fees currently charged for
   similar arrangements, adjusted for changes in interest rate and credit
   quality that occurred subsequent to origination.

                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
          THE PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE COMPANY OF AMERICA AND SUBSIDIARIES

              FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992

11. CONTINGENCIES

    A. ENVIRONMENTAL-RELATED CLAIMS

       The Company receives claims under expired contracts which assert alleged
       injuries and/or damages relating to or resulting from toxic torts, toxic 
       waste and other hazardous substances. The liabilities for such claims
       cannot be estimated by traditional reserving techniques. As a result of
       judicial decisions and legislative actions, the coverage afforded under
       these contracts may be expanded beyond their original terms. Extensive
       litigation between insurers and insureds over these issues continues and
       the outcome is not predictable, nor is there any clear emerging trend.
       In establishing the unpaid claim reserves for these losses, management
       considered the available information. However, given the expansion of
       coverage and liability by the courts and legislatures in the past, and
       potential for other unfavorable trends in the future, the ultimate cost
       of these claims could increase from the levels currently established.

    B. LAWSUITS

       Various lawsuits against the Company have arisen in the course of the    
       Company's business. In certain of these matters, large and/or
       indeterminate amounts are sought.

       In 1993, Prudential Securities Incorporated (PSI), a subsidiary of The   
       Prudential, entered into an agreement with the Securities and Exchange
       Commission, the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., and
       state securities commissions whereby PSI agreed to pay $330 million into
       a settlement fund to pay eligible claims on certain limited partnership
       matters. Under this agreement, if partnership matter claims exceed the
       established settlement fund, PSI is obligated to pay such additional
       claims.

       In October 1994, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of 
       New York (the "U.S. Attorney") filed a complaint against PSI in
       connection with its sale of certain limited partnerships.
       Simultaneously, PSI entered into an agreement to comply with certain
       conditions for a period of three years, and to pay an additional $330
       million into the settlement fund. At the end of the three-year period,
       assuming PSI has fully complied with the terms of the agreement, the
       U.S. Attorney will institute no further action.

       In the opinion of management, PSI is in compliance with all provisions   
       of the aforementioned agreements and, after consideration of applicable
       accruals, the ultimate liability of such litigation, including
       partnership settlement matters, will not have a material adverse effect
       on the Company's financial position.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
        
    Several purported class actions and individual actions have been            
    brought against the Company on behalf of those persons who purchased life   
    insurance policies allegedly because of deceptive sales practices engaged
    in by the Company and its insurance agents in violation of state and
    federal laws. The sales practices alleged to have occurred are contrary to
    Company policy. Some of these cases seek very substantial damages while
    others seek unspecified compensatory, punitive and treble damages. The
    majority of these cases were filed after March 1, 1995. The Company intends
    to defend these cases vigorously.

    In response to this litigaton, several state insurance departments have     
    initiated investigations or market conduct examinations relating to 
    Prudential's sales practices. The Attorney General of two states have also
    made inquires.

    Litigation is subject to many uncertainties, and given the complexity       
    and scope of these suits, their outcome cannot be predicted. It is also not
    possible to predict the likely results of any regulatory inquires or their
    effect on this litigation or other litigation which might be initiated in
    response to widespread media coverage of these matters.

    Accordingly, management is unable to make a meaningful estimate of the      
    amount or range of loss that could result from an unfavorable outcome of
    all pending litigation. It is possible that the results of operations or
    cash flows of the Company in particular quarterly or annual periods could
    be materially affected by an ultimate unfavorable outcome of certain
    pending litigation matters.

    Management believes, however, that the ultimate outcome of all pending      
    litigation should not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
    financial position.

   To the Board of Directors of The Prudential Insurance Company of America
   Newark, New Jersey

   We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial
   position of The Prudential Insurance Company of America and subsidiaries as
   of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related consolidated statements of
   operations and changes in surplus and asset valuation reserve and of cash
   flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1994.
   These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
   management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
   statements 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 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, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all
   material respects, the financial position of The Prudential Insurance Company
   of America and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the results
   of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the
   period ended December 31, 1994 in conformity with generally accepted
   accounting principles.

Item 29. Directors and Officers of Prudential

Information  about Prudential's  Directors and Executive  Officers appears under
the  heading  "Directors  and  Officers  of  Prudential"  in  the  Statement  of
Additional Information (Part B of this Registration Statement).

Item 30. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with Registrant

Registrant is a separate account of The Prudential Insurance Company of America,
a  mutual life insurance  company organized under  the laws of  the State of New
Jersey. The subsidiaries of  Prudential are shown on  the Organization Chart  on
pages following.

In  addition to  the subsidiaries  shown on  the Organization  Chart, Prudential
holds all of the  voting securities of Prudential's  Gibraltar Fund, a  Delaware
corporation,  in three of its separate  accounts. Prudential also holds directly
and in three  of its  other separate accounts,  and in  The Prudential  Variable
Contract  Account-24, shares  of The  Prudential Series  Fund, Inc.,  a Maryland
corporation. The balance of  the shares are held  in separate accounts of  Pruco
Life  Insurance  Company  and  Pruco  Life  Insurance  Company  of  New  Jersey,
wholly-owned subsidiaries of Prudential. All  of the separate accounts  referred
to  above are unit investment trusts registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940. Prudential's Gibraltar  Fund and The Prudential  Series Fund, Inc.  are
registered  as open-end,  diversified management investment  companies under the
Investment Company Act  of 1940. The  shares of these  investment companies  are
voted  in accordance  with the instructions  of persons having  interests in the
unit investment trusts, and Prudential,  Pruco Life Insurance Company and  Pruco
Life  Insurance Company of New Jersey vote  the shares they hold directly in the
same manner that they vote the shares that they hold in their separate accounts.

Registrant may also  be deemed to  be under common  control with The  Prudential
Variable  Contract Account-2  and The  Prudential Variable  Contract Account-11,
separate accounts of Prudential  registered as open-end, diversified  management
investment companies under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

The  Prudential is a mutual insurance  company. Its financial statements include

Item 32. Indemnification

   
The  Prudential Directors' and Officers' Liability and Corporation Reimbursement
Program, purchased by The Prudential from  Aetna Casualty & Surety Company,  CNA
Insurance  Company, Lloyds of London, Great American Insurance Company, Reliance
Insurance  Company,  Corporate  Officers  &  Directors  Assurance  Ltd.,  A.C.E.
Insurance  Company,  Ltd.,  XL  Insurance  Company,  Ltd.,  and  Zurich-American
Insurance Company, provides  coverage for  "Loss" (as defined  in the  policies)
arising  from any claim or claims by reason of any actual or alleged act, error,
misstatement, misleading statement, omission,  or breach of  duty by persons  in
the  discharge  of  their duties  solely  in  their capacities  as  directors or
officers of  The Prudential,  any  of its  subsidiaries, or  certain  investment
companies  affiliated  with The  Prudential. Coverage  is  also provided  to the
individual directors or  officers for  such Loss, for  which they  shall not  be
indemnified.  Loss  essentially  is  the legal  liability  on  claims  against a
director or officer, including  adjudicated damages, settlements and  reasonable
and  necessary  legal  fees and  expenses  incurred in  defense  of adjudicatory
proceedings and appeals therefrom. Loss  does not include punitive or  exemplary
damages  or the multiplied  portion of any multiplied  damage award, criminal or
civil fines or penalties imposed  by law, taxes or  wages, or matters which  are
insurable under the law pursuant to which the policies are construed.
    

   
There  are a number of exclusions from  coverage. Among the matters excluded are
Losses arising as the result  of (1) claims brought  about or contributed to  by
the  criminal or deliberate  fraudulent acts of  a director or  officer, and (2)
claims arising from  actual or alleged  performance of, or  failure to  perform,
services  as, or in  any capacity similar to,  an investment adviser, investment
banker, underwriter,  broker  or dealer,  as  those  terms are  defined  in  the
Securities  Act of  1933, the  Securities Exchange  Act of  1934, the Investment
Advisers Act  of  1940,  the  Investment  Company Act  of  1940,  any  rules  or
regulations  thereunder, or any similar federal, state or local statute, rule or
regulation.
    

   
The limit  of coverage  under  the Program  for  both individual  and  corporate
reimbursement   coverage   is   $150,000,000.   The   retention   for  corporate
reimbursement coverage is $10,000,000 per loss.
    

   
The  relevant   provisions   of  New   Jersey   Law  permitting   or   requiring
indemnification,  New Jersey being the state  of organization of The Prudential,
can be found in Section 14A:3-5 of  the New Jersey Statutes Annotated. The  text
of  The Prudential's by-law 27, which relates to indemnification of officers and
directors, is incorporated by reference to Exhibit (8)(ii) to this  Registration
Statement.
    

Insofar  as indemnification  for liability arising  under the  Securities Act of
1933 may be  permitted to  directors, officers  and controlling  persons of  the
Registrant  pursuant to the  foregoing provisions, or  otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the  opinion of the Securities and Exchange  Commission
such  indemnification is against public  policy as expressed in  the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification  against
such  liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director,  officer or controlling person  of the Registrant in  the
successful  defense  of any  action,  suit or  proceeding)  is asserted  by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities  being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has  been settled  by controlling  precedent, submit  to a  court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such  indemnification by it is against  public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

Item 33. Business and Other Connections of Investment Adviser

   
Prudential  does have other business of  a substantial nature besides activities
relating to the assets of the  registrant. Prudential is involved in  insurance,
reinsurance, securities, pension services, real estate and banking.
    

   
The Prudential Investment Corporation (PIC) is the investment unit of Prudential
and  is  actively  engaged in  the  business  of giving  investment  advice. The
officers and  directors  of Prudential  and  PIC  who are  engaged  directly  or
indirectly  in activities  relating to  the registrant  have no  other business,
profession, vocation, or employment  of a substantial nature,  and have not  had
such other connections during the past two years.

   25. Either the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer and the
       Secretary or the President and the Secretary shall, except as otherwise
       provided in the following sentence, execute all contracts of insurance
       and annuity either by signing such contracts manually or by causing to
       be thereto affixed their respective facsimile signatures duly adopted by
       each of them for the purpose with the approval of the Board of
       Directors. The Board of Directors, in its discretion, may authorize the
       execution in the same manner of any such contracts issued out of the
       Canadian Head Office by the President, Canadian Operations and the
       Secretary, Canadian Operations. In case any officer, as aforesaid, who
       shall have signed a contract form or whose facsimile signature shall
       have been affixed thereto shall cease to be such officer by reason of
       death or otherwise before such contract shall have been issued and
       delivered, such contract may nevertheless be issued and delivered unless
       the Board of Directors shall otherwise determine, and any such contract
       so issued and delivered shall be as binding upon the corporation as
       though every officer who signed the same or whose facsimile signature
       was affixed thereto, as aforesaid, had continued to be such officer of
       the corporation.

   26. These By-laws may be altered, amended or rescinded without notice at any
       regular meeting of the Board of Directors, or, upon such notice as is
       prescribed by By-law 5, at any special meeting of the Board of Directors,
       but in either case only by the vote of not less than twelve members of
       the Board of Directors.

   27. Except as otherwise provided in this By-law, the corporation shall have
       the power conferred by Section 14A:3-5 of the New Jersey Statutes to
       indemnify directors, officers, employees, and all other corporate agents
       defined therein.

       Any indemnification under this By-law pursuant to Section 14A:3-5, New
       Jersey Statutes, shall be made by the corporation as authorized in a
       specific case upon its being determined that (A) the costs,
       disbursements and counsel fees included in any expenses for which


                                      C-64

       indemnification is made are reasonable, (B) except for indemnification
       required by subsection 14A:3-5(4), indemnification is proper in the
       circumstances because the corporate agent (i) met the applicable
       standard of conduct set forth in subsection 14A:3-5(2) or subsection
       14A:3-5(3), as the case may be, and (ii) acted within what he reasonably
       believed to be the scope of his employment and authority, and (C) any
       necessary court order has been obtained.

       Such determinations shall be made:

       (a)    With respect to a corporate agent who is or was a director or
              officer of the corporation at or above the level of senior vice
              president, or with respect to any other corporate agent if the
              amount to be paid in indemnification to such corporate agent
              exceeds $1 million:

              (i)  By the board of directors of the corporation, or a committee
                   thereof, acting by a majority vote of a quorum comprised of
                   directors who are not parties to or otherwise involved in
                   the proceedings;

              (ii) If such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable
                   and such quorum of the board of directors or committee by
                   majority vote of the disinterested directors so directs, by
                   independent legal counsel, in a written opinion, such
                   counsel to be designated by the board of directors.

              (b)  With respect to any determinations not required to be made
                   pursuant to (a), by the general counsel of the corporation.

       Expenses incurred by a corporate agent in connection with a proceeding
       may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of
       the proceeding if authorized in the manner provided above for
       determination that indemnification is proper upon receipt of an
       undertaking by or on behalf of the corporate agent

                                      C-65

<PAGE>

       to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not
       entitled to be indemnified as provided in this By-law.

       Any right to indemnification provided by or pursuant to the foregoing
       provisions of this By-law shall not be exclusive of any other rights to
       which a corporate agent may be entitled as a matter of law, by agreement
       or otherwise.

   28. No director or employee of the Company shall have any position with or a
       substantial interest in any other enterprise operated for profit, the
       existence of which would conflict or might reasonably be supposed to
       conflict with the proper performance of his or her Company
       responsibilities, or, which might tend to affect his or her independence
       of judgment with respect to transactions between the Company and such
       other enterprise.
