Dear Shareholder,
 
During the six months ended March 31, 1995, the United States economy exhibited
steady growth. In a series of monetary tightenings that began early in 1994, the
Federal Reserve Board raised the benchmark Federal Funds rate, the rate banks
charge each other for overnight borrowing, six times in 1994 for a total
increase of 2.5%. These increases were implemented to moderate economic
expansion and forestall inflation, and were followed by another 0.5% increase on
February 1, 1995, bringing the Federal Funds rate to 6.0%.
 
Productivity gains in the workplace and the increased competitiveness of United
States corporations in the global marketplace contributed to the low inflation
and steady growth which characterized the economy during the six months ended
March 31, 1995. Unemployment continued to decline, personal income exhibited an
upward trend and measures of consumer confidence continued to register positive
readings. However, side effects of higher interest rates, including a decline in
single family housing starts, crept into economic data during the latter half of
1994. As we move into the second quarter of 1995, the economy remains
healthy--although it is not yet clear what the full impact of higher interest
rates will be on economic growth.
 
At a special meeting of shareholders that took place on April 13, 1995,
shareholders approved the appointment of PaineWebber Incorporated
('PaineWebber') as investment adviser and administrator of PaineWebber/Kidder,
Peabody Tax Exempt Money Fund, Inc. (the 'Fund') and Mitchell Hutchins Asset
Management Inc. ('Mitchell Hutchins') as the Fund's sub-adviser and sub-
administrator. Mitchell Hutchins, a wholly owned investment management
subsidiary of PaineWebber, provides investment advisory and portfolio management
services to individuals, pension and endowment funds, trusts and institutions.
As of March 31, 1995, Mitchell Hutchins was adviser or sub-adviser to 42
investment companies with 77 separate portfolios and aggregate assets of
approximately $27 billion.
 
Gregory W. Serbe and Debbie Vermann are jointly responsible for the day-to-day
management of the Fund. Mr. Serbe is a Managing Director of Mitchell Hutchins
responsible for overseeing tax exempt investments. Ms. Vermann is a portfolio
manager at Mitchell Hutchins.
 
PORTFOLIO REVIEW
 
As of March 31, 1995, the Fund offered a seven-day annualized yield of 3.20% and
an effective 7-day annualized yield of 3.25%. During the six months ended March

31, 1995, the Federal Reserve's credit tightening policy caused interest rates
on money market instruments to increase. For example, the Federal Funds rate for
short-term borrowing was approximately 4.75% on September 30, 1994; as of March
31, 1995 it had increased to 6.00%.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During the six months ended March 31, 1995, the Fund's performance was enhanced
by the Federal Funds rate increases. Rising interest rates translated into
higher yields for the portfolio. During the period, the Fund continuously
reduced its weighted average maturity. A shorter weighted average maturity
benefits the Fund by enabling it to have more cash available to invest as rates
trend upward. Going forward, the Fund will maintain a neutral weighted average
maturity as short-term rates find stability during uncertain economic times.
Investment decisions in the portfolio will be dominated by credit quality and
liquidity. Although we are interested in maintaining higher yields, we will not
do so by sacrificing the Fund's very strict emphasis on security, quality and
liquidity.
 
We value you as a shareholder and as a client, and thank you for your continued
support. We welcome any comments or questions you may have.
 
Sincerely,
 
/s/ Frank P.L. Minard                   /s/ Gregory W. Serbe

ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
PaineWebber/Kidder, Peabody Tax Exempt Money Fund Inc. (the 'Fund') was
organized under the laws of Maryland on January 18, 1983 and is registered with
the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended ('1940 Act'), as an open-end, diversified management investment
company.
 
Valuation and Accounting for Investments--Investments are valued at amortized
cost which approximates market value. Securities not subject to amortization are
valued at current market value, or, when appropriate, at cost, which

approximates current market value.
 
Investment transactions are recorded on trade date. Interest income, adjusted
for amortization of premiums and discounts on investments, is earned from
settlement date and recorded on an accrual basis. Premiums paid on purchases of
portfolio securities are amortized and discounts are accreted as adjustments to
interest income and the identified cost of securities. Realized gains and losses
from security transactions are calculated using the identified cost method.
 
The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the Fund to meet their
obligations may be affected by economic developments, including those particular
to a specific industry or region.
 
Federal Tax Status--It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify as a
regulated investment company, which can distribute tax exempt dividends, by
complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as
defined in applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make
distributions of income and net realized capital gain sufficient to relieve it
from all, or substantially all, Federal income taxes.
 
Dividends--The Fund declares dividends on a daily basis from net investment
income. Such dividends are normally paid monthly. Net capital gains, if any,
will be declared and paid at least annually. To the extent that the Fund earns
net realized capital gains which can be offset by capital loss carryforwards, if
any, it is the policy of the Fund not to distribute such gains.
 
INVESTMENT ADVISER AND ADMINISTRATOR
 
The Fund's investment adviser and administrator receives compensation from the
Fund for its services. Fees paid by the Fund for investment advisory and
administration services are accrued daily and paid monthly at the annual rate of
0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Notes to Financial Statements--(concluded)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At a special meeting of shareholders that took place on April 13, 1995,
shareholders approved the appointment of PaineWebber Incorporated
('PaineWebber') as investment adviser and administrator of the Fund and Mitchell
Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ('Mitchell Hutchins') as the Fund's sub-adviser
and sub-administrator. The Fund pays the same fee for investment advisory and
administration services to PaineWebber as previously paid to Kidder Peabody
Asset Management, Inc. ('KPAM'), as described in the Fund's Prospectus.
PaineWebber (not the Fund) pays Mitchell Hutchins a fee for sub-advisory and
sub-administration services at the annual rate of 20% of the fee received by
PaineWebber from the Fund. PaineWebber and Mitchell Hutchins continue to manage
the Fund in accordance with the Fund's investment objective, policies and
restrictions as stated in the Prospectus. At March 31, 1995, the Fund owed
PaineWebber $197,068 in investment advisory and administration fees.
 
Investment advisory functions for the Fund were previously transferred from KPAM

to Mitchell Hutchins on an interim basis as a result of an asset purchase
transaction by and among Kidder, Peabody Group Inc., its parent, General
Electric Company, and Paine Webber Group Inc. That period commenced on January
30, 1995 and ended April 13, 1995.
 
In compliance with applicable state securities laws, PaineWebber, the Fund's
investment adviser, will reimburse the Fund if and to the extent that the
aggregate operating expenses in any fiscal year, exclusive of taxes, interest,
brokerage fees, distribution fees and extraordinary expenses, exceed limitations
imposed by various state regulations. Currently, the most restrictive limitation
is 2.5% on the first $30 million of average daily net assets, 2.0% of the next
$70 million and 1.5% of average daily net assets in excess of $100 million. For
the six months ended March 31, 1995, no reimbursements were required pursuant to
the above limitation.
 
DISTRIBUTION PLAN
 
Since January 30, 1995, PaineWebber has been serving as the exclusive
distributor of the Fund's shares. For its services, which include payment of
sales commissions to registered representatives and various other promotional
and sales related expenses, it receives from the Fund a distribution fee accrued
daily and paid monthly at the annual rate of 0.12% of the Fund's average daily
net assets. At March 31, 1995, $47,296 was payable to PaineWebber for these
services.
 
OTHER LIABILITIES
 
At March 31, 1995, the amount payable for dividends was $360,409.
