WRIGHT U.S. TREASURY
MONEY MARKET FUND
WRIGHT U.S. TREASURY MONEY MARKET FUND seeks a high rate of current
income but with added safety that comes from limiting its investments to
securities of the U.S. Government and its agencies. There may be an added
advantage to investors that reside in states and municipalities that do
not tax dividend income from mutual funds investing exclusively in U.S.
Government securities.

THE WRIGHT MANAGED MONEY MARKET FUNDS
================================================================================
February, 1995
Dear Shareholders:
The Wright U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund had a 3.6% total return for all of
1994, matching the return on the average money market fund for the year. The
Federal Reserve's 250 basis-point elevation of short-term interest rates during
1994 sent three-month Treasury bills to a yield of 5.7% at the start of 1995.
During the fourth quarter alone, three-month T-bill rates climbed by 90 basis
points to the highest levels since the middle of 1991.
While another boost in short-term interest rates by the Federal Reserve is
widely expected for early in 1995, Wright continues to believe that the bulk of
the rise in market interest rates is behind us. The Wright U.S. Treasury Money
Market Fund holds only short-term U.S. Treasury securities; at the end of 1994,
Fund holdings averaged 74 days to maturity.
It should be understood that performance data quoted above represents past
performance which is not predictive of future performance and that the
investment return of a money market fund fluctuates on a daily basis.
Sincerely,
Peter M. Donovan
President

WRIGHT U.S. TREASURY MONEY MARKET FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Wright U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund (the Fund) is a series of The Wright
Managed Income Trust (the Trust) and is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end, management investment
company. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial
statements. The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
A. Valuation of Investments -- Money market instruments are valued at
amortized cost, which the Trustees have determined in good faith
constitutes fair value. The Fund's use of amortized cost is
subject to the Fund's compliance with certain conditions as
specified under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940.
B. Interest Income -- Interest income consists of interest accrued
and discount earned (including both original issue and market
discount) on the investments of the Fund, accrued ratably to the
date of maturity plus or minus net realized gain or loss, if any,
on investments.
C. Federal Taxes -- The Fund's policy is to comply with the
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code available to regulated
investment companies and distribute to shareholders each year all
of its taxable income. Accordingly, no provision for federal
income or excise tax is necessary.
D. Deferred Organization Costs -- Costs incurred by the Fund in
connection with its organization are being amortized on a
straight-line basis through June 1996.
E. Other -- Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the
investments are purchased or sold.
(2) DIVIDENDS
The net income of the Fund is determined daily, and all of the net income
so determined is declared as a dividend to shareholders of record at the time of
such determination. Dividends are distributed monthly in the form of additional
shares of the Fund or, at the election of the shareholder, in cash, on the
payable date.
(3) INVESTMENT ADVISER AND ADMINISTRATOR FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH
AFFILIATES
The Fund has engaged Wright Investors' Service (Wright) to perform
investment management, investment advisory, and other services. For its
ser-
<PAGE>
vices, Wright is compensated based on a percentage of average daily net
assets which rate is adjusted as average daily net assets exceed certain levels.
For the year ended December 31, 1994, the effective annual rate was 0.35%. To
enhance the net income of the Fund, Wright reduced its investment adviser fee by
$114,912. The Fund has also engaged Eaton Vance Management (Eaton Vance) to act
as administrator of the Fund. Under the Administration Agreement, Eaton Vance is
responsible for managing the business affairs of the Fund and is compensated
based on a percentage of average daily net assets which rate is reduced as
average daily net assets exceed certain levels. For the year ended December 31,
1994, the effective annual rate was 0.07%. Except as to Trustees who are not
affiliated with Wright or Eaton Vance, Trustees and officers receive
remuneration for their services to the Fund out of the fees paid to Wright or
Eaton Vance. The custodian fee was paid to Investors Bank & Trust Company (IBT),
an affiliate of Eaton Vance, for its services as custodian to the Fund. Pursuant
to the custodian agreement, IBT receives a fee reduced by credits which are
determined based on the average daily cash balances the Fund maintains with IBT.
Certain of the Trustees and officers of the Trust are directors/trustees and/or
officers of the above organizations.
(4) SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number
of full and fractional shares of beneficial interest (without par value).
(5) INVESTMENTS
Purchases and sales and maturities of investments aggregated $325,701,959
and $269,351,985 respectively.
(6) LINE OF CREDIT
The Fund participates with other funds managed by Wright in a line of
credit with a bank which allows the funds to borrow up to $20,000,000
collectively. The line of credit consists of a $5,000,000 committed facility and
a $15,000,000 uncommitted facility. Interest is charged to each fund based on
its borrowings, at a rate equal to the bank's base rate. In addition, the funds
pay a facility fee computed at a rate of 1/4 of 1% on the unused portion of the
$5,000,000 facility. The Trust did not have any borrowings under the line of
credit during the year ended December 31, 1994.
(7) ACQUISITION OF WRIGHT MANAGED MONEY MARKET FUND
On March 30, 1994, the Fund acquired the net assets of Wright Managed Money
Market Fund pursuant to a plan of reorganization dated March 28,1994 and
approved by the shareholders of both funds. The acquisition was accomplished by
a tax-free exchange of 16,981,815 shares of Wright Managed Money Market Fund for
the same number of shares of Wright U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund. The
aggregate net assets of the Fund immediately after the acquisition was
$40,883,041.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Trustees and Shareholders of
The Wright Managed Income Trust:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolio of investments, of Wright U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund (one of
the series constituting The Wright Managed Income Trust) as of December 31,
1994, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the
statement of changes in net assets for the years ended December 31, 1994, and
1993, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the four-year period
ended December 31, 1994. These financial statements and financial highlights are
the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights 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 financial
highlights 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 the securities owned at
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 financial highlights present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wright U.S. Treasury
Money Market Fund series of The Wright Managed Income Trust as of December 31,
1994, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets, and its
financial highlights for the respective stated periods in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
