The Administrator
Mohawk Carpet Corporation
    Retirement Savings Plan:


We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan
benefits of the Mohawk Carpet Corporation Retirement Savings Plan ("Plan") as of
December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related statement of changes in net assets
available for plan benefits for the year ended December 31, 1999. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards 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. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan as
of December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the changes in net assets available for plan
benefits for the year ended December 31, 1999 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held
for investment purposes as of December 31, 1999 is presented for the purpose of
additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements
but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the
Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to auditing
procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.

               MOHAWK CARPET CORPORATION RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN

                         Notes to Financial Statements

                          December 31, 1999 and 1998


(1)    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

       The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
       the Plan in preparing its financial statements.

       (a)    Basis of Presentation

              The records of the Plan are maintained on the cash basis of
              accounting. The accompanying financial statements of the Mohawk
              Carpet Corporation Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") have been
              prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and present the net
              assets available for plan benefits and changes in those net
              assets.

              The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
              generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
              make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
              assets, liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of
              contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ
              from those estimates.

       (b)    Investments

              Investments in mutual funds and common stock are stated at fair
              value based on quoted market prices or as determined by Scudder
              Kemper Investments (Trustee). Investments in money market funds
              and loans to participants are stated at cost which approximate
              fair value. Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade
              date basis.

              Investments in guaranteed investment contracts are payable on
              demand and are recorded at contract value, which approximates fair
              value. The contractual interest rates and crediting interest rates
              ranged from 6.0% to 7.5% at December 31, 1998. Guaranteed
              investment contracts are renegotiated at current rates available
              from insurance companies annually on April 1. There were no
              investments in guaranteed investment contracts for the year ended
              December 31, 1999.

              Realized and unrealized investment gains and losses are included
              in net appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of investments in
              the statement of changes in net assets available for plan
              benefits.


(2)    Description of the Plan

       The following description of the Plan provides only general information.
       Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete
       description of the Plan's provisions.

       (a)    General

              The Plan is a defined contribution plan and covers all employees
              of Mohawk Carpet Corporation (the "Company"), a wholly owned
              subsidiary of Mohawk Industries, Inc. The Plan provides for
              retirement savings to qualified active participants through both
              participant

                          December 31, 1999 and 1998


              and employer contributions and is subject to certain provisions of
              the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
              Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan at the beginning
              of a calendar month after completing one year of service.

              The Plan is administered by an Administrative Committee appointed
              by the Company. The Administrative Committee is responsible for
              the control, management, and administration of the Plan and the
              assets held in trust at Scudder Kemper Investments for the period
              from March 1, 1999 to December 31, 1999 and SunTrust Bank for the
              period from January 1, 1999 to March 1, 1999 and the year ended
              December 31, 1998, respectively.

       (b)    Contributions

              Contributions to the Plan are made by both participants and the
              Company. Participants may contribute a maximum of 16% of their
              gross compensation, subject to certain limitations. Participants
              may allocate their contributions in multiples of 1% to various
              investment funds of the Plan. The employer makes a 50% matching
              contribution up to the first 4% of each participant's gross
              compensation contributed to the Plan. The terms of the Plan also
              provide for discretionary employer profit sharing contributions to
              the Mohawk Stock Fund for plan participants employed on the last
              day of the plan year or terminated during the plan year on account
              of death, disability, or retirement.

              The Company amended the Plan effective January 1, 2000 to match an
              additional $0.25 for every $1.00 of employee contributions in
              excess of 4% up to a maximum of 6%.

       (c)    Participant Accounts

              Each participant's account is credited with their contribution for
              the period as well as the employer's matching contribution and an
              allocation of any employer profit sharing contribution. Investment
              income, realized gains/losses, employer profit sharing
              contributions, and the change in unrealized appreciation or
              depreciation on plan investments are credited to participants'
              accounts monthly based on the proportion of each participant's
              account balance to the total account balance within each
              investment fund at the beginning of the month.

              Participant accounts may be invested in one or more of the
              investment funds available under the Plan at the direction of the
              participant. The Plan provides for monthly valuation of accounts.
              Current investment funds available within the Plan include the
              following:

                          December 31, 1999 and 1998



       (d)    Distributions to Participants

              Upon termination of employment, the participant's account shall be
              distributed in a lump-sum cash payment as soon as administratively
              practicable, unless the participant elects otherwise. A
              participant may elect to receive his distribution in approximate
              equal installments over a period designated by the participant,
              not to exceed the lesser of 15 years or the life expectancy of the
              last survivor of the participant and his beneficiary.

              Under the terms of the Plan, participants may make hardship
              withdrawals from their accounts upon furnishing proof of hardship
              as specified in the Plan agreement. Participants may also borrow
              the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of the value of their accounts
              subject to limitations provided by the Plan. Loans must be paid
              back to the Plan generally within four years of the loan date.

              Amounts due to participants who have withdrawn from the Plan but
              have not been paid at December 31, 1999 and 1998 totaled
              $7,498 and $657,537, respectively.

       (e)    Vesting

              Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and the
              Company's matching and discretionary contributions and the income
              earned on such contributions.

       (f)    Administrative Expenses

              Certain administrative expenses of the Plan are paid by the
              Company. These costs include legal, accounting, and certain
              administrative fees.

(3)    Transactions with Parties-In-Interest

       At December 31, 1999 and 1998, the Plan held investments in trust funds
       and money market accounts sponsored by the trustee with current values of
       $136,030,055 and $29,701,669, respectively. The Plan also held
       investments in 747,855 and 406,801 shares of Mohawk Industries, Inc.
       common stock at December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

(4)    Investments

       In September 1999, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
       issued Statement of Position 99-3, Accounting for and Reporting of
       Certain Defined Contribution Plan Investments and Other Disclosure
       Matters ("SOP 99-3"). SOP 99-3 simplifies the disclosure for certain
       investments and is effective for plan years ending after December 15,
       1999. The Plan adopted SOP 99-3 during the Plan year ending December 31,
       1999. Accordingly, information previously required to be disclosed about
       participant-directed fund investment programs is not presented in the
       Plan's 1999 financial statements. The Plan's 1998 financial statements
       have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation.

       The following investments represent 5% or more of the Plan assets at
       December 31, 1999 and 1998:

</TABLE>

       All of the Plan's investments are held by a party-in-interest to the
       Plan.


(5)    Income Tax Status

       The Internal Revenue Service made a favorable ruling on the application
       for determination of qualification submitted by the Company in September
       1995. The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter
       and the Plan has filed an application for an updated determination
       letter. The administrative committee of the Plan is not aware of any
       course of action or series of events that might adversely affect the
       Plan's qualification under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code,
       and under which the Plan would be subject to tax under present income tax
       law.

(6)    Plan Termination

       While it is the Company's intention to continue the Plan indefinitely,
       the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions
       at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA
       and the Plan agreement.

(7)    Plan Mergers

       During 1999, the assets of the following plans were merged with the Plan:
       Aladdin Retirement Savings Plan, Galaxy Carpet Mills, Inc. Deferred
       Income Retirement Plan, World Carpets, Inc. Savings and Retirement Plan,
       Multitex Employee Retirement Savings Plan, and William Barnett & Son,
       Inc. Employees Profit Sharing and 401(k) Savings Plan.

       In 1999, the plan sponsor elected to merge the American Rug Craftsmen
       401(k) Savings Plan and the American Weaver Retirement Plan with the
       Plan. The assets from these plans represent the receivables of $3,301,969
       and $964,642, respectively, and were received by the Plan in January
       2000.
