PROSPECTUS, PART A
DATED AUGUST 5, 1994
SPONSORS:
Merrill Lynch,
Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc.
Smith Barney Inc.
PaineWebber Incorporated
Prudential Securities Incorporated
Dean Witter Reynolds Inc.
This Defined Fund's objective is to provide a substantial level of safety
through investment in a portfolio consisting primarily of long-term compound
interest corporate bonds that are collateralized (the 'Compound Interest
Bonds'). There is no assurance that this objective will be met because it is
subject to the continuing ability of issuers of the Debt Obligations to meet
their principal and interest requirements. Furthermore, the market value of the
underlying Securities, and therefore the value of the Units, will flucutate with
changes in interest rates and other factors. The Securities were issued after
July 18, 1984, as a result of which the interest income (including original
issue discount) will be exempt from U.S. Federal income taxes, including
withholding taxes, for many foreign Holders (see Taxes in Part B).
The collateral backing the Compound Interest Bonds is primarily composed of
mortgage-backed Securities of the GNMA modified pass-through type ('GNMA
Certificates' or 'Ginnie Maes') fully guaranteed as to the payment of principal
and interest by GNMA. The guaranty obligation of GNMA with respect to the GNMA
Certificates will be backed by the full faith and credit of the United States,
but GNMA does not guarantee payment on the Bonds or on the Units of the Fund, as
such. The Fund is also designed for IRA accounts, Keogh plans and other
tax-deferred retirement programs. Units of the Fund are rated AAA by Standard &
Poor's.
MINIMUM PURCHASE IN INDIVIDUAL TRANSACTIONS: 1,000 UNITS
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND
EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION NOR HAS THE COMMISSION OR
ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS
PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: PART A OF THIS PROSPECTUS MAY NOT BE DISTRIBUTED
UNLESS ACCOMPANIED BY DEFINED ASSET FUNDS--CORPORATE INCOME FUND PROSPECTUS,
PART B.
This Prospectus consists of two parts. The first includes an Investment Summary
and certified financial statements of the Fund, including the related securities
portfolio; the second contains a general summary of the Fund.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Read and retain both parts of this Prospectus for future reference.
<PAGE>
DEFINED ASSET FUNDSSM is America's oldest and largest family of unit investment
trusts with over $90 billion sponsored since 1970. Each Defined Fund is a
portfolio of preselected securities. The portfolio is divided into 'units'
representing equal shares of the underlying assets. Each unit receives an equal
share of income and principal distributions.
With Defined Asset Funds you know in advance what you are investing in and that
changes in the portfolio are limited. Most defined bond funds pay interest
monthly and repay principal as bonds are called, redeemed, sold or as they
mature. Defined equity funds offer preselected stock portfolios with defined
termination dates.
Your financial advisor can help you select a Defined Fund to meet your personal
investment objectives. Our size and market presence enable us to offer a wide
variety of investments. Defined Funds are available in the following types of
securities: municipal bonds, corporate bonds, government bonds, utility stocks,
growth stocks, even international securities denominated in foreign currencies.
Termination dates are as short as one year or as long as 30 years. Special funds
are available for investors seeking extra features: insured funds, double and
triple tax-free funds, and funds with 'laddered maturities' to help protect
against rising interest rates. Defined Funds are offered by prospectus only.

MINIMUM VALUE OF FUND
Trust may be terminated if value of Fund is less than 40% of the original

Amount of Fund Securities on the date of their deposit.
- ------------------------------
*These figures assume a purchase of 1,000 Units. The price of a single
Unit, or any multiple thereof, is calculated simply by dividing the
Public Offering Price per 1,000 Units, above, by 1,000, and multiplying
by the number of Units. The sales charge will be reduced on a graduated
scale in the case of quantity purchases (see Public Offering Price in
Part B). The resulting reduction in the Public Offering Price will
increase the effective return on a Unit.
**For Units purchased or redeemed on the Evaluation Date, accrued
interest is approximately equal to the undistributed net investment
income of the Fund (see Statement of Condition on p. D-2) divided by
the number of outstanding Units, plus accrued interest per Unit to the
expected date of settlement (5 business days after purchase or
redemption). The amount of the cash adjustment which is added is equal
to the cash per Unit held in the Capital Account not allocated to the
purchase of specific Securities (see Public Sale of Units--Public
Offering Price and Redemption in Part B).
+On the initial date of Deposit (September 20, 1985) the Principal
Amount of Securities in the Fund was $22,386,510. Cost of Securities is
set forth under Portfolio.
++The Trustee receives annually for its services as Trustee $0.95 per
$1,000 original Principal Amount of Compound Interest Bonds. The
Trustee's Annual Fee and Expenses also includes the Portfolio
Supervision Fee and the Evaluator's Fee set forth herein.
+++The Sponsors also may be reimbursed for their costs of bookkeeping
and administrative services to the Fund. Portfolio supervision fees
deducted in excess of portfolio supervision expenses may be used for
this reimbursement. Additional deductions for this purpose are
currently estimated not to exceed an annual rate of $0.10 per 1,000
Units.

RE: DEFINED ASSET FUNDS--CORPORATE INCOME FUND,
CASH OR ACCRETION BOND SERIES--1 (SEC Reg. Pound2-92891)
Dear Mr. Perini:
It is our understanding that you have filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission a Eighth Post Effective Amendment on the above captioned
fund, SEC file number 2-92891.
Because the portfolio is composed solely of United States Treasury
Obligations and collateralized mortgage obligations that are rated 'AAA' by
Standard & Poor's Rating Group and are collateralized by GNMA pass-through
certificates, we reaffirm the assignment of an 'AAA' rating to the units of the
trust.
You have permission to use the name of Standard & Poor's Corporation and
the above-assigned rating in connection with your dissemination of information
relating to these units, provided that it is understood that the rating is not a
'market' rating nor a recommendation to buy, hold or sell the units of trust.
Further, it should be understood that the rating does not take into account the
extent to which fund expenses or portfolio asset sales for less than the fund's
purchase price will reduce payment to the unit holders of the interest and
principal required to be paid on the portfolio assets. S&P reserves the right to
advise its own clients, subscribers, and the public of the rating. S&P relies on
the sponsor and its counsel, accountants, and other experts for the accuracy and
completeness of the information submitted in connection with the rating. S&P
does not independently verify the truth or accuracy of any such information.
This letter evidences our consent to the use of the name of Standard &
Poor's Corporation in connection with the rating assigned to the units in the
post-effective amendment referred to above. However, this letter should not be
construed as a consent by us, within the meaning of Section 7 of the Securities
Act of 1933, to the use of the name of Standard & Poor's Corporation in
connection with the ratings assigned to the securities contained in the trust.
You are hereby authorized to file a copy of this letter with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
Please be certain to send us three copies of your final prospectus as soon
as it becomes available. Should we not receive them within a reasonable time
after the closing or should they not conform to the representations made to us,
we reserve the right to withdraw the rating.
We are pleased to have had the opportunity to be of service to you. Our
bill will be sent to you within one month. If we can be of further help, please
do not hesitate to call upon us.
Sincerely,
RICHARD P. LARKIN
