PAINEWEBBER    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(UNAUDITED)

ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
PaineWebber Short-Term U.S. Government Income Fund (the "Fund"), a series of
PaineWebber Managed Investments Trust (the "Trust"), is registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as an open-end, diversified investment company. The Trust is a series
mutual fund with six funds: the Fund, as well as PaineWebber U.S. Government
Income Fund, PaineWebber Investment Grade Income Fund, PaineWebber High Income
Fund, PaineWebber Short-Term U.S. Government Income Fund for Credit Unions, and
PaineWebber Utility Income Fund, which are not presented in these financial
statements.
 
Organizational Matters - Prior to commencing its operations, the Fund had no
activities other than organizational matters and activities related to the
initial public offering and the issuance, at net asset value, of 1 Class A
share, 1 Class B share and 1 Class D share of the Fund to Mitchell Hutchins
Asset Management Inc. ("Mitchell Hutchins"), a wholly owned subsidiary of
PaineWebber Incorporated ("PaineWebber") and investment adviser and
administrator of the Fund. Costs of $235,000 incurred by the Fund in connection
with its organization and the registration of its shares have been deferred and
are being amortized, using the straight-line method over a period not to exceed
five years from the commencement of operations of the Fund.
 
On May 3, 1993 the Fund commenced operations for Class A, B and D shares. Each
class represents interests in the same assets of the Fund and the classes are
identical except for differences in their sales charge structures, ongoing
distribution charges and certain transfer agency expenses. In addition, Class B
shares and all corresponding dividend reinvested shares automatically convert
to Class A shares approximately six years after issuance. All classes of shares
have equal voting privileges, except that each class has exclusive voting
rights with respect to its distribution plan.
 
Valuation of Investments - Where market quotations are readily available,
portfolio securities are valued thereon, provided such quotations adequately
reflect, in the judgment of Mitchell Hutchins, the fair value of the
securities. When market quotations are not readily available, securities are
valued based upon appraisals derived from information concerning those
securities or similar securities received from recognized dealers in those
securities. All other securities are valued at fair value as determined in good
faith by or under the direction of the Trust's board of trustees. The amortized
cost method of valuation, which approximates market value, is used to value
debt obligations with 60 days or less remaining to maturity, unless the Trust's
board of trustees determines that this does not represent fair value.
 
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.

PAINEWEBBER    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(CONTINUED)
 
Investment Transactions and Investment Income - Investment transactions are
recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from investment
transactions are calculated using the identified cost method. Interest income
is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are
amortized as adjustments to interest income and the identified cost of
investments. The Fund may enter into transactions in which the Fund sells
securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously contracts to
repurchase substantially similar (same type, coupon and maturity) securities on
a specified future date (the "roll period"). During the roll period the Fund
foregoes principal and interest paid on the securities. The Fund is compensated
by the interest earned on the cash proceeds of the initial sale and by fee
income or a lower repurchase price.
 
Income, expenses (excluding class-specific expenses) and realized/unrealized
gains/losses are allocated proportionately to each class of shares based upon
the relative net asset value of outstanding shares (or the value of dividend-
eligible shares, as appropriate) of each class at the beginning of the day
(after adjusting for current capital share activity of the respective classes).
Class-specific expenses are charged directly to the applicable class of shares.
 
Futures Contracts - Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund
is required to pledge to a broker an amount of cash and/or U.S. Government
securities equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This amount is
known as the "initial margin." Subsequent payments, known as "variation
margin," are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily
fluctuations in the value of the underlying financial futures contracts. Such
variation margin is recorded for financial statement purposes on a daily basis
as unrealized gain or loss until the financial futures contract is closed, at
which time the net gain or loss is reclassified to realized.
 
Using financial futures contracts involves various market risks. The maximum
amount at risk from the purchase of a futures contract is the contract value.
The Fund is subject to a number of guidelines which reduce this risk by seeking
to ensure that financial futures contracts are used for hedging purposes as
well as to manage the average duration of the Fund's portfolio and not for
leverage. However, imperfect correlations between futures contracts and the
portfolio securities being hedged, or market disruptions, do not normally
permit full control of these risks at all times. As of May 31, 1995 there were
no open futures contracts.
 
Option Writing - When the Fund writes a call or a put option, an amount equal
to the premium received by the Fund is included in the Fund's Statement of
Assets and Liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. The amount
of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market
value of the option written. If an option which the Fund has written either
expires on its stipulated expiration date or the Fund enters into a closing
purchase transaction,

PAINEWEBBER    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(CONTINUED)

the Fund realizes a gain (or loss if the cost of a closing purchase transaction
exceeds the premium received when the option was written) without regard to any
unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related
to such option is extinguished. If a call option which the Fund has written is
exercised, the Fund realizes a capital gain or loss (long-term or short-term,
depending on the holding period of the underlying security) from the sale of
the underlying security and the proceeds from the sale are increased by the
premium originally received. If a put option which a Fund has written is
exercised, the amount of the premium originally received reduces the cost of
the security which the Fund purchases upon exercise of the option. At May 31,
1995 the Fund held no unexpired options.
 
Repurchase Agreements - The Fund's custodian takes possession of the collateral
pledged for investments in repurchase agreements. The underlying collateral is
valued daily on a mark-to-market basis to ensure that the value, including
accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. In the event of
default of the obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right to liquidate
the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. Under
certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party
to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject
to legal proceedings.
 
Federal Tax Status - The Fund intends to distribute all of its taxable income
and to comply with the other requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for
federal income taxes is required. In addition, by distributing during each
calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and
certain other amounts, if any, the Fund intends not to be subject to a federal
excise tax.
 
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders - Dividends and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Fund declares dividends
on a daily basis from net investment income. The amount of dividends and
distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations
which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These
"book/tax" differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature.
To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are
reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis
treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and
distributions which exceed net investment income and net realized capital gains
for financial reporting purposes but not for tax purposes are reported as
dividends in excess of net investment income or distributions in excess of net
realized capital gains. To the extent they exceed net investment income and net
realized capital gains for tax purposes, they are reported as distributions of
paid-in-capital.

INVESTMENT ADVISER AND ADMINISTRATOR
 
The Trust's board of trustees has approved an Investment Advisory and
Administration Contract ("Advisory Contract") with Mitchell Hutchins, under
which Mitchell Hutchins serves as investment adviser and administrator of the
Fund. In accordance with the Advisory Contract, the Fund pays Mitchell Hutchins
an investment advisory and administration fee, which is accrued daily and paid
monthly, at the annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. At
May 31, 1995, the Fund owed Mitchell Hutchins $155,029 in investment advisory
and administration fees.
 
In compliance with applicable state securities laws, Mitchell Hutchins will
reimburse the Fund if and to the extent that the aggregate operating expenses
in any fiscal year, exclusive of taxes, distribution fees, interest, brokerage
fees and extraordinary expenses, exceed limitations imposed by various state
regulations. Currently, the most restrictive limitation applicable to the Fund
is 2.5% of the first $30 million of average daily net assets, 2.0% of the next
$70 million and 1.5% of any excess over $100 million. For the six months ended
May 31, 1995, no reimbursements were required pursuant to the above limitation
for the Fund.
 
Under a separate contract with Mitchell Hutchins, ("Sub-Advisory Contract"),
Pacific Investment Management Company ("PIMCO") serves as the Fund's sub-
advisor. Under the Sub-Advisory Contract, Mitchell Hutchins (not the Fund) will
pay PIMCO a fee, computed weekly and payable monthly, in an amount equal to
one-half of the advisory fee received by Mitchell Hutchins from the Fund.
 
DISTRIBUTION PLANS
 
Mitchell Hutchins is the distributor of the Fund's shares and has appointed

of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each Class of shares and monthly
distribution fees at the annual rate of 0.75% and 0.50% of the average daily
net assets of Class B shares and Class D shares, respectively. At May 31, 1995,
the Fund owed Mitchell Hutchins $177,270 in service and distribution fees.
 
Mitchell Hutchins also receives the proceeds of the initial sales charges paid

CAPITAL CONTRIBUTION FROM MITCHELL HUTCHINS
 
On September 23, 1994, the Fund recorded a capital contribution from Mitchell
Hutchins in the amount of $16.0 million or $0.06 per Fund share. An additional
$16.8 million that was paid directly to certain shareholders who had redeemed
Fund shares prior to September 23, 1994. These amounts were paid by Mitchell
Hutchins in connection with the settlement of certain class action litigation.
The payments reflected losses that had been incurred by the Fund by reason of
its investments in non-planned amortization class interest-only and principal-
only (I/O and P/O) securities.
 
AFFILIATED TRANSACTIONS
 
PaineWebber Capital Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of PaineWebber Group Inc.,
purchased certain of the Fund's I/O and P/O securities on June 8, 1994 for an
aggregate purchase price of $50.4 million and purchased the Fund's certain
structured floating rate securities on August 25, 1994 for an aggregate
purchase price of $179.7 million. The purchases of those securities by
PaineWebber Capital Inc. were made at prices equal to the securities' then
current fair values, and thus did not affect the Fund's net asset value.

* Annualized
** Net of $0.06 contribution of capital from adviser. If such contribution had
   not been made the total investment returns would have been (7.02)% for Class
   A, (7.74)% for Class B and (7.50)% for Class D.
(1) Total investment return is calculated assuming a $1,000 investment on the
    first day of each period reported, reinvestment of all dividends at net
    asset value on the payable dates, and a sale at net asset value on the last
    day of each period reported. The figures do not include sales charges;
    results for Class A and Class B would be lower if sales charges were
    included. Total investment returns for periods less than one year have not
    been annualized.
(2) During the year ended November 30, 1994 Mitchell Hutchins waived a portion
    of its advisory and administration fees. If such waivers had not been made
