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'), guaranteed FNMA mortgage pass-through
certificates ('FNMA Certificates' or 'Fannie Maes') or FHLMC Mortgage
Participation Certificates ('FHLMC Certificates' or 'Freddie Macs'), fully
guaranteed as to the payment of principal and interest by GNMA, FNMA or FHLMC.
The guaranty obligation of GNMA with respect to the GNMA Certificates is backed
by the full faith and credit of the United States, while the guaranty
obligations of FNMA with respect to the FNMA Certificates and FHLMC with respect
to the FHLMC Certificates are obligations of FNMA and FHLMC only (limited by
FNMA's and FHLMC's credit capabilities) and are backed by the full faith and
credit of the United States or any other governmental entity. Neither GNMA, FNMA
nor FHLMC guarantees 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

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.

Evaluation Date, the value of the Fund is 23% of the original Principal
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).
***Until principal and interest payments on all other classes of bonds of
an issue are completed, interest accruing on the Compound Interest
Bonds is accrued but not paid. Therefore, until the first payment
commencement date of any Bond, the number of new Units created on each
accretion date will increase because of compounding of this interest.
After any payment commencement date, interest and principal on that
Bond will be paid in cash and the number of new Units created will be
reduced correspondingly. Payments have commenced on 2 of the Compound
Interest Bonds.
+On the initial date of Deposit (December 18, 1986) the Principal Amount
of Securities in the Fund was $16,542,045. 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.

REDUCED REINVESTMENT AND PREPAYMENT RISK--Interest accrues on the
Compound-Interest Bonds but is not paid until their respective Payment
Commencement Dates. After this period, interest and principal are paid
semi-annually to the Fund and distributed monthly to Holders. During the
compounding period, interest continues to accrue at the original rate so that
reinvestment risk is substantially eliminated for Holders who do not elect
automatic liquidation. In that respect, during their compounding period, the
Bonds resemble a zero coupon instrument. Prepayments on the collateral go to pay
the 'fast pay' classes before the Compound Interest Bonds begin to amortize.
Moreover, for Units purchased at a Public Offering Price below the current
principal amount of the Compound Interest Bonds, prepayments on the collateral
increase the actual return on Units.
- ------------------------------
* See Description of Ratings in Part B.
** See Risk Factors--Cash or Accretion Bond Series, Select Series and
GNMA-Collateralized Bond Series in Part B.
+ All of the issuers of the Compound Interest Bonds are limited purpose
corporations organized solely for the purpose of issuing bonds
collateralized by mortgage-backed securities. See Risk Factors--Cash
or Accretion Bond Series, Select Series and GNMA-Collateralized Bond
Series--Limited Assets and Limited Liability in Part B. The collateral
security for each issue will serve as collateral only for that issue.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
The Sponsors, Co-Trustees and Holders
of Defined Asset Funds - Corporate Income Fund,

We have audited the accompanying statement of condition of Defined Asset Funds -
Corporate Income Fund, Cash or Accretion Bond Series - 9, including the
portfolio, as of March 31, 1994 and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets for the years ended March 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Co-Trustees. 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. Securities owned at
March 31, 1994, as shown in such portfolio, were confirmed to us by Investors
Bank & Trust Company, a Co-Trustee. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the Co-Trustees, 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 Defined Asset Funds - Corporate
Income Fund, Cash or Accretion Bond Series - 9 at March 31, 1994 and the results
of its operations and changes in its net assets for the above-stated years in

The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a Unit
Investment Trust. 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) Securities are stated at value as determined by the Evaluator based on
bid side evaluations for the securities (see "Redemption - Computation
of Redemption Price Per Unit" in this Prospectus, Part B).
(b) Subsequent to December 19, 1986, accrued interest is added to the
principal and cost of the collateralized bonds in accordance with
their terms. On April 1 and October 1 of each year, additional units
are issued ratably to Holders based on one unit per one dollar of
aggregate increase in the accreted principal amount of the
collateralized interest bonds.
(c) The Fund is not subject to income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for
such taxes is required.
(d) Interest income is recorded as earned.
2. DISTRIBUTIONS
The Fund has received distributions of principal or interest on some of its
holdings of the collateralized bonds. Distributions are made by the Fund
to its Holders only when payments of principal and interest are received on
such bonds. Proceeds from the sale of investment securities in excess of
the amount needed for redemptions of units are distributed periodically.
For additional information, see "Risk Factors - Cash or Accretion Bond
Series, Select Series and GNMA - Collateralized Bond Series" in this
Prospectus, Part B.

basis, for Federal income tax purposes in accordance with the grantor trust
rules of the United States Internal Revenue Code.
At March 31, 1994, the cost of the investment securities for Federal income
tax purposes was approximately equivalent to the adjusted cost as shown in
the Fund's portfolio.
