                                 ANNUAL REPORT
 
               TRANSAMERICA OCCIDENTAL'S SEPARATE ACCOUNT FUND C
 
Transamerica Occidental Separate Account Fund C's total return for 1995 was
52.84% after fees compared to a total return of 37.58% for the S&P 500. The
Fund's 5-year compound annual return is 26.13% after fees, or a total return of
219.21% versus the S&P 500 compound annual return of 16.59%, or a total return
of 115.46%. Performance was strong across all areas of the Fund's investments.
 
In contrast to 1994, 1995 was a plentiful year for the financial markets as many
fundamental factors fell into perfect alignment. The economy slowed, inflation
worries abated, the Federal Reserve eased, and interest rates fell. These
factors set the stage for an explosive rally in the stock market. Investors
flocked to equity funds to take advantage of these favorable conditions pouring
over $100 billion into equity mutual funds -- an all-time record.
 
The outlook for 1996 is for continued economic growth with low inflation.
Productivity gains and fierce worldwide competition will continue to keep
inflation in check. Real economic growth should slow to a more sustainable pace
of 2.0% to 2.5%. Stock market returns should be good but perhaps not as easy to
come by as in 1995.
 
The Fund's strategy of being a long-term investor in preeminent companies will
continue in 1996. Investments in companies like Intel, Microsoft, Walt Disney,
and Gillette are one of the reasons the Fund has achieved compound returns in
excess of 25%. These companies are not only leading American companies, but over
the years, have developed into leading international companies.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
 
Unitholders and Board of Managers, Transamerica Occidental's Separate Account
Fund C
Board of Directors, Transamerica Occidental Life Insurance Company
 
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Transamerica Occidental's Separate Account Fund C, including the portfolio of
investments, as of December 31, 1995, 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 financial highlights for each of the
five years in the period then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of Fund'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, 1995, 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Transamerica Occidental's
Separate Account Fund C at December 31, 1995, the results of its operations for
the year then ended, the changes in net assets for each of the two years in the
period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in
the period then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
