1.  Significant accounting policies:

       CMC High Yield Fund (the Fund) is a portfolio of CMC Fund Trust (the
Trust), an open-end diversified investment company registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Trust has established two other
portfolios, CMC Small Cap Fund and CMC International Stock Fund. Each portfolio
issues a separate series of the Trust's shares and maintains a separate
investment portfolio. The policies described below are consistently followed by
the Fund for the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

       Investment valuation - The Fund's investments are carried at values
deemed best to reflect their fair values as determined in good faith by or under
the supervision of the Trustees. These values are based on market value as
quoted by dealers who are market makers in these securities or by an independent
pricing service unless unusual circumstances indicate that another method of
determining fair value should be considered. Market values are based on the
average of bid and ask prices, or by reference to other securities with
comparable ratings, interest rates and maturities. Temporary investments in
short-term securities, principally repurchase agreements, are valued at cost,
which approximates market.

       Shareholder distributions - The Fund distributes net investment income
monthly and any net realized gains from investment transactions annually.
Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the record date.

       Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for net
operating losses and deferral of losses from wash sales.

       Use of estimates - The preparation of the financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

       Federal income taxes - The Fund has made no provisions for federal income
taxes on net investment income or net realized gains from sales of investment
securities, since it is the intention of the Fund to comply with the provisions
of the Internal Revenue Code available to certain regulated investment
companies, and to make distributions of income and security profits sufficient
to relieve it from substantially all federal income taxes.

       Other - Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the
investments are purchased or sold. The cost of investments sold is determined by
the use of the specific identification method for both financial reporting and
income tax purposes. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized
gains and losses from investment transactions and unrealized appreciation or
depreciation of investments are reported on the basis of identified costs. The
Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of underlying securities
collateralizing repurchase agreements (included in temporary cash investments).
Market values of these securities are required to be at least 100% of the cost
of the repurchase agreement. The Fund's investment advisor determines that the
value of the underlying securities is at all times at least equal to the resale
price. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the
agreement, realization and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to
legal proceedings.

       The Fund invests in lower rated debt securities, which may be more
susceptible to adverse economic conditions than other investment grade holdings.
These securities are often subordinated to the prior claims of other senior
lenders, and uncertainties exist as to an issuer's ability to meet principal and
interest payments. At April 30, 1997, 100% of the Fund's portfolio was invested
in securities rated Ba (52%) or B (48%) by Moody's Investor Services, Inc.

1.  Significant accounting policies:

       CMC Small Cap Fund and CMC International Stock Fund (the Funds) are
portfolios of CMC Fund Trust (the Trust), an open-end diversified investment
company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The
Trust has established one other portfolio, CMC High Yield Fund. Each portfolio
issues a separate series of the Trust's shares and maintains a separate
investment portfolio. The policies described below are consistently followed by
the Funds for the preparation of their financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

       Investment valuation - The values of the Funds' equity investments are
based on the last sale prices reported by the principal securities exchanges on
which the investments are traded, or, in the absence of recorded sales, at the
closing bid prices on such exchanges or over-the-counter markets. Temporary
investments in short-term securities, principally repurchase agreements, are
valued at cost, which approximates market.

       Forward foreign currency exchange contracts - The CMC International Stock
Fund enters into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge certain
portfolio securities denominated in foreign currencies. Forward contracts are
recorded at market value. The CMC International Stock Fund could be exposed to
risks if counterparties to the forward contracts are unable to meet the terms of
their contracts or if the value of the foreign currency changes unfavorably. The
effect of any change in the value of a hedged foreign currency would be offset
by the increase (resulting from a change in exchange rates) in value of the
securities denominated in that currency. Net realized gains arising from forward
contracts amounted to $907,635 and are included in net realized gain from
foreign currency transactions. As of April 30, 1997, the CMC International Stock
Fund had entered into the following forward contract resulting in net unrealized
appreciation of $57,113.

                                                            Net Unrealized
      Currency to        Currency to       Settlement        Appreciation
     be Delivered        be Received          Date             (U.S. $)
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    1,173,000,000       9,376,499 U.S.      06/27/97           $ 57,113
     Japanese Yen          Dollars

       Foreign currency translations - The books and records of the CMC
International Stock Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency
transactions are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:

       (i) market value of investment securities, other assets, and liabilities
       at the daily rates of exchange, and
       (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest
       income and certain expenses at the rates of exchange prevailing on the
       respective dates of such transactions.

       The CMC International Stock Fund does not isolate that portion of the
results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on
investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of
investments held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and
unrealized gain or loss from investments.

1.  Significant accounting policies (Continued):

       Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales
and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency
gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities
transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and
foreign withholding taxes recorded on the CMC International Stock Fund's books
and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net
unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of
assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, resulting from
changes in the exchange rates.

       Shareholder distributions - The Funds distribute net investment income
twice a year and any net realized gains from investment transactions annually.
Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the record date.

       Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for
foreign currency transactions, net operating losses, deferral of losses from
wash sales, redemptions in kind and return of capital received from Real Estate
Investment Trusts.

       Use of estimates - The preparation of the financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

       Federal income taxes - The Funds have made no provision for federal
income taxes on net investment income or net realized gains from sales of
securities, since it is the intention of the Funds to comply with the provisions
of the Internal Revenue Code available to certain regulated investment
companies, and to make distributions of income and security profits sufficient
to relieve them from substantially all federal income taxes.

       Other - Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the
investments are purchased or sold. The cost of investments sold is determined by
the use of the specific identification method for both financial reporting and
income tax purposes. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and
dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains and losses
from investment transactions and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of
investments are reported on the basis of identified costs. The Funds, through
their custodians, receive delivery of underlying securities collateralizing
repurchase agreements (included in temporary cash investments). Market values of
these securities are required to be at least 100% of the cost of the repurchase
agreements. The Funds' investment advisor determines that the value of the
underlying securities is at all times at least equal to the resale price. In the
event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, realization
and/or retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.
