REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
ON INTERNAL CONTROL STRUCTURE
Board of Trustees
Franklin Managed Trust
San Mateo, California
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of
the Franklin Rising Dividends Fund, a series of shares of Franklin
Managed Trust (the "Trust"), for the year ended September 30, 1999
we considered its internal control structure, including procedures
for safeguarding securities, in order to determine our auditing
procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the
financial statements and to comply with the requirements of
Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on the internal control
structures.
The management of the Trust is responsible for establishing and
maintaining an internal control structure. In fulfilling this
responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required
to assess the expected benefits and related costs of internal
control structure policies and procedures. Two of the objectives
of an internal control structure are to provide management with
reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded
against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that
transactions are executed in accordance with management's
authorization and recorded properly to permit preparation of
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Because of inherent limitations in any internal control
structure, errors or irregularities may occur and not be
detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of the
structure to future periods is subject to the risk that it
may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or
that the effectiveness of the design and operation may
deteriorate.
Our consideration of the internal control structure would
not necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control
structure that might be material weaknesses under standards
established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants. A material weakness is a condition in which
the design or operation of the specific internal control
structure elements does not reduce to a relatively low level
the risk that errors or irregularities in amounts that would
be material in relation to the financial statements being
audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period
by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned
functions. However, we noted no matters involving the
internal control structure, including procedures for
safeguarding securities, that we consider to be material
weaknesses, as defined above, as of September 30, 1999
This report is intended solely for the information and
use of management and the Securities and Exchange Commission,
and should not be used for any other purpose.
