Changes in Accounting Principles and Practices
Effective January 1, 1993, the Prudential Intermediate Global
Income Fund, Inc. began accounting and reporting for distributions
to shareholders in accordance with Statement of Position 93-2:
Determination, Disclosure, and Financial Statement Presentation of
Income, Capital Gain, and Return of Capital Distributions by
Investment Companies. The effect of adopting this statement was to
increase paid-in capital by $66,030,945, increase undistributed net
investment income by $4,125,398 and increase accumulated net
realized losses on investments and foreign currency transactions by
$70,156,343. Net investment income, net realized gains, and net
assets were not affected by this change.
February 11, 1994
To the Board of Directors of
Prudential Intermediate Global Income Fund, Inc.
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of
Prudential Intermediate Global Income Fund, Inc.(the "Fund") for the
year ended December 31, 1993, we considered its internal control
structure, including procedures for safeguarding securities, in order
to determine our auditing procedures for the purposes of expressing
our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the
requirements of Form N-SAR, and not to provide assurance on the
internal control structure.
The management of the Fund 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 appropriately 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 December 31, 1993.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We have examined the accompanying description of the Prudential Dual Pricing
Worksheet (the "Worksheet") application of State Street Bank and Trust Company
("State Street"), custodian and recordkeeper for the Prudential Mutual Funds
(the "Funds"). Our examination included procedures to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether (1) the accompanying description presents fairly, in
all material respects, the aspects of State Street's policies and procedures
that may be relevant to a Fund's internal control structure relating to the
Worksheet, (2) the control structure policies and procedures included in the
description were suitably designed to achieve the control objectives specified
in the description, if those policies and procedures were complied with
satisfactorily, and (3) such policies and procedures had been placed in
operation as of June 30, 1993. The control objectives were specified by
Prudential Mutual Fund Management. Our examination was performed in accordance
with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants and included those procedures we considered necessary in the
circumstances to obtain a reasonable basis for rendering our opinion.
In our opinion, the accompanying description of the aforementioned application
presents fairly, in all material respects, the relevant aspects of State
Street's policies and procedures that had been placed in operation as of June
30, 1993. Also, in our opinion, the policies and procedures, as described, are
suitably designed to provide reasonable assurance that the specified control
objectives would be achieved if the described policies and procedures were
complied with satisfactorily.
In addition to the procedures we considered necessary to render our opinion as
expressed in the previous paragraph, we applied tests to specific policies and
procedures, listed in Section I, to obtain evidence about their effectiveness
in meeting the control objectives, described in Section I during the period
from July 1, 1992 to June 30, 1993. The nature, timing, extent, and results of
the tests are listed in Section II. In our opinion the policies and procedures
that were tested, as described in Section II, were operating with sufficient
effectiveness to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the
control objectives specified in Section I were achieved during the period from
July 1, 1992 to June 30, 1993.
The relative effectiveness and significance of specific policies and procedures
at State Street, and their effect on assessments of control risk on the Funds
are dependent on their interaction with the policies, procedures, and other
factors present at individual Funds. We have performed no procedures to
evaluate the effectiveness of policies and procedures at individual Funds in
connection with this report.
The description of policies and procedures at State Street is as of June 30,
1993, and information about tests of the operating effectiveness of specified
policies and procedures covers the period from July 1, 1992 to June 30, 1993.
Any projection of such information to the future is subject to the risk that,
because of change, the description may no longer portray the system in
existence. The potential effectiveness of specified policies and procedures at
State Street is subject to inherent limitations and, accordingly, errors or
irregularities may occur and not be detected. Furthermore, the projection of
any conclusions, based on our findings, to future periods is subject to the
risk that changes may alter the validity of such conclusions.
This report is intended solely for use by the management and Boards of
Directors/Trustees of the Funds, the independent auditors of the Funds and the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

SECTION I
Policies and Procedures Placed in Operation
Prudential Dual Pricing Worksheet
Effective January 22, 1990, the Funds, offered by Prudential Securities
Incorporated (formerly Prudential-Bache Securities, Inc.) and Prudential Mutual
Fund Distributors, Inc., adopted a dual pricing system. The dual pricing
system consists of two classes of shares (Class A and Class B) for the Funds.
The Class A shares are subject to a front-end sales load and the Class B shares
are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge. The two classes of shares
represent interests in the same portfolio of investments of the respective Fund
and are identical in all respects, except that each class is subject to
different distribution expenses and has exclusive voting rights with respect to
the Rule 12b-1 distribution plan pursuant to which such distribution expenses
are paid.
In order to allocate income and expenses between the two classes of shares,
State Street Bank and Trust Company (the Funds' custodian and recordkeeper)
utilizes the Prudential Dual Pricing Worksheet (the "Worksheet") (see Exhibit
I). The Worksheet is a manual supplementary application that extracts relevant
data from the Funds' primary accounting system, allocates income and expenses
between the two classes of shares and computes the daily net asset value and,
if applicable, the dividend/distribution for each class of shares. Internal
accounting controls that are relevant to the Fund can be divided into two
components - controls related to the mutual fund accounting system resident at
State Street Bank and Trust Company (the "primary accounting system") and
controls related to the Worksheet.
The specific control objectives and policies and procedures relating to the
Worksheet are described on pages 4 and 5. A description of the tests of the
policies and procedures designed to obtain evidence about the operating
effectiveness of those policies and procedures in achieving the specific
control objectives is included in Section II.
Control Objectives and Policies and Procedures
Prudential Dual Pricing Worksheet
The Worksheet is a supplementary manual application to the Funds' primary
accounting system. Certain data is extracted from the primary accounting
system to allocate income and expenses and to calculate the daily net asset
value and, if applicable, dividends/distributions for each class of shares.
The primary accounting system includes the details of transactions in
accordance with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
The following represents the internal accounting control objectives and
policies and procedures for the allocation of income and expenses and the
computation of the net asset value and, if applicable, the
dividend/distribution for each class of shares utilizing the Worksheet. It
does not cover the internal accounting control policies and procedures
surrounding the processing of information into the Funds' primary accounting
system.

SECTION II
Tests of Operating Effectiveness
Prudential Dual Pricing Worksheet
July 1, 1992 to June 30, 1993
We reviewed the methodology and procedures for calculating the daily net asset
value and, if applicable, the dividends/distributions of the two classes of
shares and the allocation of income and expenses between the two classes of
shares.
The following are the detailed procedures which we performed with respect to
the Worksheet. These procedures were performed for selected days encompassing
all Funds subject to dual pricing during the year ended June 30, 1993, which we
believe is a representative sample, to test compliance with the control
policies and procedures as described in Section I.
Prudential Mutual Fund Management, Inc. is the manager of the Funds and has
represented to us that adequate facilities are in place to ensure
implementation of the methodology and procedures for calculating the net asset
value and dividends/distributions of the two classes of shares and the
allocation of income and expenses between the two classes of shares. Based on
