Cash Reserves Portfolio
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
(1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash Reserves Portfolio (the "Portfolio") is registered under the U.S.
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a no-load, diversified, open-end
management investment company which was organized as a trust under the laws of
the State of New York. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue
beneficial interests in the Portfolio. Signature Financial Group (Grand Cayman),
Ltd. ("SFG") acts as the Portfolio's Administrator and Citibank, N.A.
("Citibank") acts as the Investment Adviser.
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 in the financial statements. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
The significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio are
in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and are as
follows:
A. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS -- Money market instruments are valued at amortized
cost, which the Trustees have determined in good faith constitutes fair value.
This method involves valuing a portfolio security at its cost and thereafter
assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. The
Portfolio's use of amortized cost is subject to the Portfolio's compliance with
certain conditions as specified under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of
1940.
B. INTEREST INCOME AND EXPENSES -- Interest income consists of interest accrued
and discount earned (including both original issue and market discount) on the
investments of the Portfolio, accrued ratably to the date of maturity, plus or
minus net realized gain or loss, if any, on investments. Expenses of the
Portfolio are accrued daily. The Portfolio bears all costs of its operations
other than expenses specifically assumed by Citibank and SFG.
C. U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- The Portfolio is considered a partnership under
the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal income
taxes is necessary.
D. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- It is the policy of the Portfolio to require the
custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal
Reserve Book Entry System or to have segregated within the custodian bank's
vault, all securities held as collateral in support of repurchase agreement
investments. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Portfolio to
monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of the repurchase agreement's
underlying investments to ensure the existence of a proper level of collateral.
E. FEES PAID INDIRECTLY -- The Portfolio's custodian bank calculates its fees
based on the Portfolio's average daily net assets. The fees are reduced
according to a fee arrangement, which provides for custody fees to be reduced
based on a formula developed to measure the value of cash deposited with the
custodian by the Portfolio. This amount is shown as a reduction of expenses on
the Statement of Operations.
F. OTHER -- Purchases, maturities and sales of money market instruments are
accounted for on the date of the transaction.
(2) INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND ADMINISTRATIVE FEES
A. INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE -- The investment advisory fees paid to Citibank, as
compensation for overall investment management services, amounted to $3,087,245,
of which $1,727,538 was voluntarily waived for the six months ended February 29,
1996. The investment advisory fees are computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of
the Portfolio's average daily net assets.
B. ADMINISTRATIVE FEES -- Under the terms of an Administrative Services
Agreement, the administrative fee paid to the Administrator, as compensation for
overall administrative services and general office facilities, are computed at
the annual rate of 0.05% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. The
administrative fees amounted to $1,029,082, all of which were voluntarily waived
for the six months ended February 29, 1996. The Portfolio pays no compensation
directly to any Trustee or to any officer who is affiliated with the
Administrator, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the
Portfolio from the Administrator or its affiliates. Certain of the officers and
a Trustee of the Portfolio are officers and a director of the Administrator or
its affiliates.
(3) INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Purchases, maturities and sales of money market instruments aggregated
$54,671,611,380 and $55,248,999,164, respectively, for the six months ended
February 29, 1996.
(4) LINE OF CREDIT
The Portfolio, along with other Landmark Funds, entered into an agreement with a
bank which allows the Funds collectively to borrow up to $40 million for
temporary or emergency purposes. Interest on borrowings, if any, is charged to
the specific fund executing the borrowing at the base rate of the bank. In
addition, the $15 million committed portion of the line of credit requires a
quarterly payment of a commitment fee based on the average daily unused portion
of the line of credit. For the six months ended February 29, 1996, the
commitment fee allocated to the Portfolio was $11,214. Since the line of credit
was established, there have been no borrowings.
