DEAN WITTER VALUE-ADDED MARKET SERIES -- EQUITY PORTFOLIO TWO WORLD TRADE
CENTER, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10048
LETTER TO THE SHAREHOLDERS JUNE 30, 1996
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
The first eight months of fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 was favorable to
equity investors, as a slowing economy combined with strong corporate earnings,
lower interest rates and benign inflation propelled stocks higher. By March
1996, however, investor expectations took a dramatic turn as balanced budget
hopes faded, political uncertainty arose, economic reports hinted at stronger
growth and expectations of lower interest rates vanished. The government
shutdown and severe winter weather combined to delay economic releases and
foster confusion as to the true course of the economy. On the political front,
the Republican primaries temporarily deflected the focus from a balanced budget
deal to a shorter-term emphasis on jobs and flat taxes. But probably the most
damaging event to impact the stock market during the final three months of the
fiscal year was the sharp increase in long-term interest rates.
PERFORMANCE AND PORTFOLIO
Against this backdrop, Dean Witter Value-Added Market Series, Equity Portfolio
produced a total return of 19.27 percent for the twelve-month period ended June
30, 1996, compared to a return of 26.00 percent for the Standard & Poor's 500
Composite Stock Price Index (S&P 500 Index). The accompanying chart illustrates
the growth of a $10,000 investment in the Fund since inception (December 1,
1987) through the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 versus a similar investment in
the issues that comprise the S&P 500 Index.
The Fund is index-oriented, investing in the stocks that comprise its benchmark
index, the S&P 500 Index. Unlike the S&P 500, however, the Fund equally weights
all stock positions, thereby emphasizing the stocks of small- and mid-sized
companies which historically outperform larger-capitalization companies. For
most of the fiscal year, the S&P 500's performance was driven by
large-capitalization multinational corporations, as well as stocks in the
technology sector. These two areas are more heavily weighted in the Index than
in the Fund. As a

result, the Fund underperformed the Index for the full fiscal year. However, the
Fund did outperform the Index during the first quarter of 1996 when the Fund's
larger-than-market weight in the outperforming financial, transportation and
cyclical sectors and its lower-than-market weight in the underperforming
consumer and utilities sectors, contributed to its outperformance. The Fund
continued to outperform the market through mid-May, before losing ground over
the last six weeks of the fiscal year as a result of a sharp relative decline in
the stock of cyclical and financial companies, two areas in which the Fund has a
greater-than-market weight.
LOOKING AHEAD
[GRAPHIC]
Notwithstanding the stock market
correction that occurred throughout
July, we believe the primary bullish
trend of equity prices should remain
intact over the long term. The next
advance in the equities markets should
be helped by better than expected
corporate profits and a gradual decline
in interest rates. We expect the dollar
will continue its improving trend,
attracting foreign investors to both
equity and fixed-income markets, as
currency translation gains and the
current high yields prove especially
enticing. In addition, history shows us
that presidential cycles tend to be
favorable for equities, especially
going into the latter part of 1996.
[GRAPHIC]
We appreciate your support of Dean
Witter Value-Added Market Series --
Equity Portfolio and look forward to
continuing to serve your financial
needs and objectives.
Very truly yours,
[SIGNATURE]
CHARLES A. FIUMEFREDDO
CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD

DEAN WITTER VALUE-ADDED MARKET SERIES -- EQUITY PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1996
1. ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Dean Witter Value-Added Market Series -- Equity Portfolio (the "Fund") is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, amended (the "Act"), as a
diversified, open-end management investment company. The Fund's investment
objective is high level of total return on its assets through a combination of
capital appreciation and current income. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective
by investing, on an equally-weighted basis, in a diversified portfolio of common
stocks of the companies which are represented in the Standard & Poor's 500
Composite Stock Price Index. The Fund was organized as a Massachusetts business
trust on May 27, 1987 and commenced operations on December 1, 1987.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from
those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:
A. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS -- (1) an equity security listed or traded on the
New York or American Stock Exchange is valued at its latest sale price on that
exchange prior to the time when assets are valued; if there were no sales that
day, the security is valued at the latest bid price; (2) all other portfolio
securities for which over-the-counter market quotations are readily available
are valued at the latest available bid price prior to the time of valuation; (3)
when market quotations are not readily available, portfolio securities are
valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under procedures
established by and under the general supervision of the Trustees; and (4)
short-term debt securities having a maturity date of more than sixty days at
time of purchase are valued on a mark-to-market basis until sixty days prior to
maturity and thereafter at amortized cost based on their value on the 61st day.
Short-term securities having a maturity date of sixty days or less at the time
of purchase are valued at amortized cost.
B. ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS -- Security transactions are accounted for on the
trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Realized gains and
losses on security transactions are determined by the identified cost method.
Dividend income and other distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Discounts are accreted over the respective life of the securities. Interest
income is accrued daily.
C. FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS -- It is the Fund's policy to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders.
Accordingly, no federal income tax provision is required.
<PAGE>
DEAN WITTER VALUE-ADDED MARKET SERIES -- EQUITY PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1996, CONTINUED
D. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- The Fund records dividends and
distributions to its shareholders on the ex-dividend date. The amount of
dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital
gains 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.
2. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
Pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement with Dean Witter InterCapital
Inc. (the "Investment Manager"), the Fund pays the Investment Manager a
management fee, accrued daily and payable monthly, by applying the following
annual rates to the net assets of the Fund determined as of the close of each
business day: 0.50% to the portion of daily net assets not exceeding $500
million and 0.45% to the portion of daily net assets exceeding $500 million.
Effective May 1, 1996, the annual rate was reduced to 0.425% of daily net assets
in excess of $1 billion.
Under the terms of the Agreement, in addition to managing the Fund's
investments, the Investment Manager maintains certain of the Fund's books and
records and furnishes, at its own expense, office space, facilities, equipment,
clerical, bookkeeping and certain legal services and pays the salaries of all
personnel, including officers of the Fund who are employees of the Investment
Manager. The Investment Manager also bears the cost of telephone services, heat,
light, power and other utilities provided to the Fund.
3. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Shares of the Fund are distributed by Dean Witter Distributors Inc. (the
"Distributor"), an affiliate of the Investment Manager. The Fund has adopted a
Plan of Distribution (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act pursuant
to which the Fund pays the Distributor compensation, accrued daily and payable
monthly, at an annual rate of 1.0% of the lesser of: (a) the average daily
aggregate gross sales of the Fund's shares since the Fund's inception (not
including reinvestment of dividend or capital gain distributions) less the
average daily aggregate net asset value of the Fund's shares
<PAGE>
DEAN WITTER VALUE-ADDED MARKET SERIES -- EQUITY PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1996, CONTINUED
redeemed since the Fund's inception upon which a contingent deferred sales
charge has been imposed or upon which such charge has been waived; or (b) the
Fund's average daily net assets. Amounts paid under the Plan are paid to the
Distributor to compensate it for the services provided and the expenses borne by
it and others in the distribution of the Fund's shares, including the payment of
commissions for sales of the Fund's shares and incentive compensation to, and
expenses of, the account executives of Dean Witter Reynolds Inc. ("DWR"), an
affiliate of the Investment Manager and Distributor, and other employees and
selected broker-dealers who engage in or support distribution of the Fund's
shares or who service shareholder accounts, including overhead and telephone
expenses, printing and distribution of prospectuses and reports used in
connection with the offering of the Fund's shares to other than current
shareholders and preparation, printing and distribution of sales literature and
advertising materials. In addition, the Distributor may be compensated under the
Plan for its opportunity costs in advancing such amounts, which compensation
would be in the form of a carrying charge on any unreimbursed expenses incurred
by the Distributor.
Provided that the Plan continues in effect, any cumulative expenses incurred but
not yet recovered may be recovered through future distribution fees from the
Fund and contingent deferred sales charges from the Fund's shareholders.
Although there is no legal obligation for the Fund to pay expenses incurred in
excess of payments made to the Distributor under the Plan and the proceeds of
contingent deferred sales charges paid by investors upon redemption of shares,
if for any reason the Plan is terminated, the Trustees will consider at that
time the manner in which to treat such expenses. The Distributor has advised the
Fund that such excess amounts, included carrying charges, totalled $53,266,045
at June 30, 1996.
The Distributor has informed the Fund that for the year ended June 30, 1996, it
received approximately $831,000 in contingent deferred sales charges from
certain redemptions of the Fund's shares.
4. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of portfolio securities, excluding
short-term investments, for the year ended June 30, 1996 aggregated $257,705,399
and $74,300,735, respectively. Included in the aforementioned are purchases of
common stock of Dean Witter, Discover & Co., an affiliate of the Investment
Manager, of $314,695.
<PAGE>
DEAN WITTER VALUE-ADDED MARKET SERIES -- EQUITY PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1996, CONTINUED
Dean Witter Trust Company, an affiliate of the Investment Manager and
Distributor, is the Fund's transfer agent. At June 30, 1996, the Fund had
transfer agent fees and expenses payable of approximately $76,000.
The Fund has an unfunded noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering
all independent Trustees of the Fund who will have served as independent
Trustees for at least five years at the time of retirement. Benefits under this
plan are based on years of service and compensation during the last five years
of service. At June 30, 1996, the Fund had an accrued pension liability of
$80,102 which is included in accrued expenses in the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND TRUSTEES
OF DEAN WITTER VALUE-ADDED MARKET SERIES -- EQUITY PORTFOLIO
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolio 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 Dean Witter Value-Added Market
Value Series -- Equity Portfolio (the "Fund") at June 30, 1996, the results of
its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each
of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each
of the eight years in the period then ended and for the period December 1, 1987
(commencement of operations) through June 30, 1988, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and financial
highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Fund'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 generally accepted
auditing standards 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 June 30, 1996 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers and the application of alternative
auditing procedures where confirmations from brokers were not received, provide
a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
