Dear Shareholders,
From the White House to Wall Street, the stories that
filled the news headlines over the past year have left a lasting
impression on America's culture. History won't soon forget, for
instance, the impeachment trial or the potential catastrophic
impact that Y2K computer glitches promised, but didn't deliver.
Foreign markets, especially Asia and Russia were digging themselves
out of a devastating economic collapse while genocide gripped the
Balkans. All the while, the longest running U.S. economic expansion
showed little sign of slowing. The underlying fundamentals of
moderate inflation, high consumer confidence and robust corporate
earnings thrust equity values into the stratosphere while fixed
income securities languished amid fears of possible future inflation.
Driving the growth has been the explosion of technology surrounding
the Internet. A plethora of dot-com companies unveiled the latest
technology gizmos to make our lives easier and information more
accessible than ever dreamed possible just a few years ago.
Free flowing capital, which has been the bedrock of our
current economic boom, would not have been possible without tough
political and financial decisions engineered by past generations.
The United Nations, for instance, was organized after the catastrophes
of W.W. II. A solid financial system, which included the inception of
the Securities and Exchange Commission, was put into place after the
devastating effects of the Great Depression. The Cold War ended by
the early 1990's with a massive nuclear arms reduction and in 1997
the U.S. posted its first budget surplus in more than thirty years.
The foresight of past generations to develop long term solutions to
enormous problems has produced in the longest economic expansion on
record, the lowest unemployment rate in thirty years, low inflation
and general peace throughout the world. Fostering the growth of
capitalism has propelled the entrepreneurial spirit and funded the
advancements in technology which has reshaped business and personal
communications.
"The wave of the future is coming and there is no fighting it."
(Anne Morrow Lindbergh). This quote rings particularly true in the fast
paced world of new technology inventions. The explosion of Internet
startups and their IPOs have catapulted many companies into multi-billion
dollar entities, some in a few short weeks. Investors are stuck between
justifying astronomical stock valuations or missing out on a possible
fundamental shift in consumer and business demand for products. This
dynamic environment has kept industry leaders such as Microsoft, Intel
and Lucent under pressure to remain innovative and flexible or risk losing
market share to smaller startups.
The red-hot technology sector coupled with solid economic
fundamentals and seemingly insatiable consumer demand has propelled
the equity markets to record highs. The technology loaded NASDAQ
100 returned 101 percent for the year, while the S&P 500 was up
21 percent. Fixed income securities with long maturities were hit
hard all year as a stellar economy kept inflationary fears
high and interest rates on the rise. The Equity Growth Fund increased 50.1
percent for the year while the S&P MidCap Index increased 14.7 percent. The
Balanced Fund with its 60-40 mix of stocks and bonds, increased 8.4 percent
compared to a 9.0 percent increase in the Lipper Balanced Fund Index. The
Bond and Retirement Income Funds returned -3.7 percent and -2.3 percent,
respectively, compared to the Lipper BBB Bond Index return of -1.1 percent.
The Cornerstone Stock Fund returned 29.6 percent compared to the S&P 500
Index which returned 21.0 percent.

Looking ahead it is difficult not to be very cautious about the short
run, but long run fundamentals remain solid. Several years ago, a select few
on Wall Street were touting a "New Era of Investing" in which the equity
markets would remain robust for an extended period of time. Their thesis
was based upon an aging baby boom generation flush with cash and the
determination to spend or invest it. In addition, they theorized,
that the technology boom would continue to expand worker productivity
while reducing costs and increasing the profitability of corporations.
Also, a shift toward more service related jobs from the often volatile
manufacturing sector would defray the dreaded business cycle effect on
the economy. While we do not flatly accept that equity values will rise
indefinitely, credible evidence suggests an extended economic boom with
relatively low inflation and near full employment should continue unless
an unexpected shock should befall the economy.
The most immediate concern remains the inflationary effect of full
employment, rising oil prices and unprecidented consumer demand. After three
rate increases in 1999, the Federal Reserve remains poised to push rates higher
if economic growth continues on its torrid pace. Higher rates have already
hurt bond returns and the stock market could be in for a rough ride in the
year ahead if rates creep any higher. As with any forecast scenario, there
are many unknowns and a virtually infinite number of outcomes. Our current
financial path, however, makes it difficult to be anything other than
extremely cautious about stocks for the year. Bonds we expect will
provide positive total returns for the new year.
At December 31, 1999, the five Advance Capital I, Inc. Funds held just
over $580 million in total assets, about 36 percent more than the prior year.
Our focus has been and will remain on the long term. Intelligent investment
decisions, broad diversification and control of costs comprise the
cornerstones of our investment philosophy. We fully expect this approach will
continue to serve our investors well over time. We thank you for your
continued confidence and look forward to providing you with service and
results designed to meet or exceed your long term investment objectives.

The Equity Growth Fund returned 50.1 percent in 1999 while
the S&P 400 Mid Cap Index returned 14.7 percent and the Lipper
Mid Cap Growth Index returned 73.7 percent. The accompanying graph
shows the cumulative performance of the Equity Growth Fund, the
Lipper Mid Cap Growth Index, the S&P 400 Mid Cap Index and the
Consumer Price Index (CPI) since the beginning of 1994.
Despite several financial obstacles, investors remained
upbeat about stocks through most of 1999. The first part of the
year brought uncertainty about the stability of foreign markets
and the potential negative impact on domestic prosperity.
Several restructuring packages by the International Monetary
Fund stopped the economic hemorrhaging in Asia and Russia which
quelled investors' fears. Skepticism turned to slight optimism
when corporate earnings for the first quarter showed surprising
strength. Late in the second quarter and into the third, GDP
growth came roaring back while inflation remained remarkably
tame. This combination was the catalyst for investors to push
stock values higher, especially Internet related companies and
those heavily involved in technology. By the beginning of the
fourth quarter the NASDAQ 100 had already returned 31 percent
for the year. During the fourth quarter that Index returned
54 percent, producing an unbelievable 101 percent return for
the year.

<PAGE>
In contrast to the prior four years, during which large
cap growth soundly outperformed mid cap growth, this past year
saw mid cap growth stocks drastically outperform their larger
counterparts. The characteristics of small to mid sized companies
along with relatively high valuations on large cap stocks and
enthusiasm for the technology sector accounted for the shift
in returns. Small to mid cap stocks have market capitalization's
under $10 billion. They typically represent emerging companies with
new services or technologies which, if broadly adopted, could
produce significant earnings growth and market share. In 1980
for example a small, relatively unknown company entered the market
with a new computer operating system designed to make setup and
operation of IBM computers easier and more user friendly. In the
twenty years since, Microsoft has grown from a small cap stock
into a technology behemoth with the highest market capitalization
of any domestic company. Today, Microsoft sells hundreds of
products and generates annual sales of about $25 billion. Although
its market strength and stock performance will be difficult to
duplicate, investors are scrambling to find companies with similar
potential amid the recent technological boom gripping the market.
Economic data points to a strong new year with continued
low unemployment and solid corporate earnings. Investors and the
Fed worry that inflation will creep into the economy if GDP growth
continues on its torrid pace. Bond investors have already pushed
yields significantly higher over the past year. Rising interest
rates will eventually begin to weigh on stock values.

The shareholders in the Bond Fund approved a change in
investment objectives on March 9, 1999. The effect of the change
was to lengthen the average maturity of the investment grade
portion of the Fund and to include high yield and GNMA bonds in
the Fund. For the year, the Bond Fund declined 3.7 percent, compared
to the Lipper Intermediate Bond Index which declined .98 percent.
The Bond Fund's return represents 6.1 percent from income distributed
to shareholders and a 9.8 percent decrease in share price. The
accompanying graph shows the cumulative performance of the Bond
Fund, the Balanced Fund, the Lipper Intermediate Bond Index, the
Consumer Price Index (CPI) and the Lipper Balanced Index since
August 1987, the Fund's inception.
In the first half of 1999, the U.S. economy appeared
destined to succumb, in some way, to the foreign contagion
which had rocked many Asian economies over the prior two years.
Diligent fiscal restructuring along with continued help by the
International Monetary Fund, however, helped to stabilize many
of those economies. This quelled domestic fears of a near term
recession or slowdown hitting the U.S. economy. The all clear
was sounded by mid summer as consumer confidence snapped back to
its prior high and GDP growth, which had fallen in the second
quarter, jumped to an annualized rate of 5.7 percent for the third
quarter. In addition, the unemployment rate hit a 30 year low
and oil prices more than doubled from $10 a barrel early in the
year to about $25 a barrel by December. The remarkable resilience
of the U.S. economy to rebound from severe foreign pressures did
not go unnoticed. The Federal Reserve raised interest rates three
times from June through November in order to suppress renewed
inflationar pressures and slow the torrid pace of GDP growth.
A strong U.S. economy combined with rising interest rates
left fixed income investors stunned and returns negative for 1999.
The 30 year U.S. Treasury bond declined about 14.3 percent (including
interest) for the year while the ten year treasury bond was off
about 7.8 percent (including interest). Most investment grade
corporate bonds posted negative returns, the severity depended on
specific maturity and underlying credit quality. High yield bonds
faired a bit better, returning on average about 1.5 percent for the
year.
At December 31, the Bond Fund was fully invested with an overall
portfolio maturity of about 13 years. The Fund's maturity is near the
middle of the new target range of 10 to 20 years and longer than the
year earlier figure of 8.2 years. The changes to investment objective
accounted for the rise in average portfolio maturity over last year.
The average quality of the Fund declined to BBB+ from A a year earlier.
Again the difference represents implementing the change in investment
objectives to incorporate high yield bonds into the Fund which, by
definition, have a lower rating than investment grade bonds.

<PAGE>
Today, underlying economic strength combined with an enthusiastic
consumer and record high equity values has the Federal Reserve poised
to raise interest rates further to cool economic growth to a more
sustainable level. In the short term, higher rates would not bode
well for fixed income investments. In the long run, however, higher
rates would keep economic growth and consumer spending in check and
fixed income investments more attractive. The Bond Fund's
characteristics of long investment grade corporate bonds along with
high yield bonds should keep the Fund well positioned relative to its
peers should this scenario fold.
THE BALANCED FUND IN 1999
THE ADVANCE CAPITAL I BALANCED FUND SEEKS TO PROVIDE CAPITAL APPRECIATION,
CURRENT INCOME AND PRESERVATION OF CAPITAL BY INVESTING IN A DIVERSIFIED
PORTFOLIO OF COMMON STOCKS AND BONDS.

</TABLE>
The Balanced Fund increased 8.4 percent in 1999 while the
Lipper Balanced Index increased 9.0 percent. The accompanying graph
illustrates the cumulative performance of the Balanced Fund, the
Bond Fund, the Lipper Intermediate Bond Index, the Lipper Balanced
Index and the Consumer Price Index (CPI) since August 1987, the
Fund's inception. Although the Fund began in August of 1987, the
investment objectives and policies were changed at the end of 1993
and T. Rowe Price Associates was added as sub-investment advisor
to the Fund at that time.
The Balanced Fund's investment mix of 40 percent investment
grade bonds, 40 percent large cap value and 20 percent mid cap growth
kept the fund well diversified while producing investment returns
in-line with the average balanced fund. The global slowdown which
plagued many foreign countries late in 1998, appeared destined to
hit the U.S. economy in 1999. The Federal Reserve lowered rates three
times late in 1998 to defray this threat and quell the growing fear
of a market correction. Lower rates along with strong underlying
economic fundamentals brought investors back into the market and
lifted GDP growth by the second half of 1999. As optimism returned,
investors pulled money out of fixed income investments in favor of
the high growth technology sector. By mid year, U.S. economic growth
had rebounded significantly and the risk of a recession had vanished.
In fact, inflation fears crept back into the economy which sent the
Federal Reserve on course to reverse the prior three rate reductions
by the end of 1999. A stark reversal in interest rates did not bode
well for fixed income securities. The yield on the thirty year U.S.
Treasury bond rose from about 5 percent at the beginning of the year
to around 6.5 percent at year end, which conversely, led to a
significant price decline in most fixed income securities.
While technology was on a tear, large cap value stocks, on
average, returned less than 10 percent while large cap growth stocks
returned around 20 percent. The distinct gap between these sectors
illustrates the exuberance surrounding technology relative to the
staid industrial sector. Traditional value
6
<PAGE>
investing utilizes fundamental analysis to determine a company's worth
based on book value of assets, sales growth and relative P/E ratio.
Finding a value stock equates to buying when a company's worth is not
fully priced into the current market value of the stock. Conversely,
growth investing, especially with today's Internet stocks, relies less
on traditional fundamental analysis and more on future earning
expectations, growth of proprietary technology and projected market
position. Although both strategies are important to a well balanced
portfolio, traditional value investing has outperformed growth investing
over long investment periods.
Today, the high flying technology sector has come under some
pressure from profit taking and rising interest rates. The underlying
economic fundamentals, however, remain positive and the possibility of
a severe market correction or domestic recession appears remote. The
Balanced Fund's allocation between large company value, small company
growth and fixed income securities, along with proper industry
diversification, should continue to provide a consistency and balanced
returns within the dynamic investment environment.

The Retirement Income Fund declined 2.3 percent for the year
while the Lipper BBB Index declined 1.1 percent. The Retirement Income
Fund's return was comprised of 6.7 percent from income distributed to
shareholders and a 9.0 percent decrease in share price. The accompanying
graph shows the cumulative performance of the Retirement Income Fund,
the Lipper BBB Index and the Consumer Price Index (CPI) since January
1993, the Fund's inception.
The past year proved particularly difficult for most fixed income
investments. The Federal Reserve raised rates three times over the past
eight months, partially to reverse three rate cuts enacted during the
1998 Asian financial crisis and also to slow economic growth. The Fed's
action pushed the yield on the 30 year U.S. Treasury bond from about 5
percent at the beginning of the year to around 6.5 percent by year's end.
Also, many fixed income investors were tempted by the red-hot equity
market which sapped demand for fixed income securities as money flowed
from bonds into stocks. The Retirement Income Fund holds about 67 percent
of total assets in investment grade corporate bonds with long average
maturities. This made it particularly susceptible to rising rates during
the year. Although the traditional measures of inflation are tame,
underlying concerns about wage pressures, rising oil prices and general
prosperity has left fixed income investors worried about future inflation.
Overall, high yield returns were slightly positive even though certain
sectors performed poorly and the market was quite volatile. The health
care industry, for example, was adversely affected by the government's
decision to mandate a Prospective Payment System for long term care
facilities. This complicated payment scheme forced some companies to
reconfigure their cost and revenue structures. Pressure to change did
not sit well with high yield investors and, as expected, several bonds
in this sector declined in price. Another sector hit hard was consumer
textile and apparel. The significant trade imbalance with Asia kept
import prices cheap and domestic apparel companies under severe pricing
pressure. For example, Fruit of the Loom, a well known domestic apparel
company, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in December as a
result of high debt and poor market conditions.
Since the Asian crisis in the fall of 1998, high yield investors
have favored large, liquid issues with sound fundamentals and higher
quality ratings within the high yield universe. The smaller issues or
lower rated bonds have come under pressure as investors shift to more
stable names. Also, 1999 showed a sizable increase in distressed rates
among high yield issuers. The Retirement Income Fund, although not immune
to these pressures, is well diversified with more than 77 high yield names
in ten different industries. Also, since inception, our strategy has
favored large, liquid issues with solid fundamentals, good growth
8
<PAGE>
prospects and upper tier credit ratings within the high yield universe.
This basic philosophy has kept problem names to a minimum while generating a
competitive income yield.
Today, the Retirement Income Fund holds approximately 67 percent
of assets in long maturing investment grade and about 33 percent in high
yield securities. The average maturity is about 14.6 years and overall
portfolio quality is BBB. We continue to favor large high yield issuers
with sound fundamentals and investment grade bonds with shorter maturities
in the 10 to 15 year range. The Fund remains focused on providing stable,
reliable income at a reasonable level of risk.

The Cornerstone Stock Fund returned 29.6 percent for the year compared
to the S&P 500 Index which returned 21.0 percent. The accompanying graph
shows the cumulative performance of the Cornerstone Stock Fund, the S&P
500 Index and the Consumer Price Index (CPI) since December 1998, the Fund's
inception.
Throughout 1999, the equity markets benefited from continued low
inflation, robust corporate earnings and massive inflows into stock mutual
funds. The general theme favored technology and Internet related companies
with the opportunity to capitalize on the growing demand for telecommunication
equipment and parts, increased bandwidth and computer software.
The Cornerstone Stock Fund invests primarily in a diversified group of
large, well established companies, each with market capitalization well over
$10 billion. Companies of this size tend to have established product lines,
solid market positions and substantial financial resources. These are the
most liquid stocks in the marketplace.
Today, the Cornerstone Stock Fund is fully invested with over sixty
eight securities in ten different industries. An emphasis on technology,
pharmaceuticals and telecommunications recognizes the major growth
opportunities of the next decade. The Fund's strategy is to apply diligent
investment research in selecting highly capitalized companies with industry
leading positions.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION OF THE COMPANY
Advance Capital I, Inc. (the COMPANY) is a Maryland
Corporation organized on March 6, 1987 and commenced operations
on August 5, 1987. The COMPANY is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end,
diversified management investment company (a mutual fund)
offering shares in the following portfolios: Equity Growth Fund,
Bond Fund, Balanced Fund, Retirement Income Fund and Cornerstone
Stock Fund.
NOTE 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could
differ from these estimates.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies
followed by the COMPANY.
SECURITY VALUATION
Securities for which exchange quotations are readily
available are valued at the last sale price at the close of business.
If there is no sale price, they are valued at the last bid price.
Securities (including restricted securities) for which exchange
quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange), are valued primarily using
dealer supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in
good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general
supervision of the Board of Directors. Money market instruments
held by the Funds with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less
are valued at cost which approximates market.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
The Fund may engage in repurchase agreement transactions.
When a fund engages in such transactions, it is policy to require
the custodian bank to take possession of all securities held as
collateral in support of repurchase agreement investments. In
addition, the Fund monitors the market value of the underlying
collateral on a daily basis. If the seller defaults or if bankruptcy
proceedings are initiated with respect to the seller, the realization
or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.

NOTE 2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
EXPENSES
Most expenses of the COMPANY can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are generally apportioned
between the Funds on the basis of average net assets.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
It is each fund's policy to meet the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and each
fund intends to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders.
Therefore, no federal income tax provision is provided.
DIVIDENDS
Income dividends in the Bond, Balanced and Retirement Income Funds
are declared daily, except on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays and are paid
monthly on the last business day of the month. Income dividends in the Equity
Growth and Cornerstone Stock Funds, if any, are declared annually and paid on
the last business day of the year. Capital gain distributions, if any, are
declared annually and paid in December. For 1999, distributions of net
realized capital gains of $13,167,056 and $9,151,425 were paid by the
Equity Growth and Balanced Funds, respectively.
OTHER
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date, the date
the order to buy or sell is executed. Interest income is recorded on the
accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Premium
and discount on fixed income securities are amortized using the effective
interest method. Realized gains and losses on security transactions are
determined on the specific identification method for book and tax purposes.
Net investment losses, for which no carryover is permitted, are offset against
paid in capital.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Trustees and Shareholders of
Advance Capital I, Inc.
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities,
including the portfolios of investments, and the related statements of
operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Equity Growth Fund, Bond Fund, Balanced Fund, Retirement Income Fund and
Cornerstone Stock Fund (constituting Advance Capital I, Inc., hereafter
referred to as the "Company") at December 31, 1999, the results of each
of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their
net assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter
referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the
Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits
of these financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States, which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of
securities at December 31, 1999 by correspondence with the custodian and
brokers, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
