NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
May 31, 1998 (Unaudited)
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Crowley Portfolio Group, Inc. (the "Fund") is an open-end diversified
investment company currently offering two series of shares: The Crowley
Income Portfolio, and The Crowley Diversified Management Portfolio (each a
"Portfolio").
The objective of The Crowley Income Portfolio is to maximize current
income, consistent with prudent risk, i.e., reasonable risk to principal.
The objective of The Crowley Diversified Management Portfolio is high total
return consistent with reasonable risk. The Portfolios will use a variety
of investment strategies in an effort to balance portfolio risks and to
hedge market risks. There can be no assurance that the objectives of the
Portfolios will be achieved.
SECURITY VALUATION
Portfolio securities, which are fixed income securities, are valued by
using market quotations, prices provided by market-makers or estimates
of market values obtained from yield data relating to instruments or
securities with similar characteristics, in accordance with procedures
established in good faith by the Board of Directors. Securities listed
on an exchange or quoted on a national market system are valued at the
last sales price. Investments in regulated investment companies are
valued at the net asset value per share as quoted by the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. Money market securities with
remaining maturities of less than 60 days are valued on the amortized
cost basis as reflecting fair value. All other securities are valued at
their fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Portfolios intend to comply with the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code necessary to qualify as regulated investment companies and
as such will not be subject to federal income taxes on otherwise
taxable income (including net realized capital gains) which is
distributed to shareholders. At November 30, 1997, the Income Portfolio
had a capital loss carryforward for Federal income tax purposes of
approximately $254,700, of which $36,100 expires in the year 2002 and
$28,400 in 2003, $143,200 in 2004 and $47,000 in 2005.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS, INVESTMENT INCOME AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO
SHAREHOLDERS
As is common in the industry, security transactions are accounted for
on the trade date (the date the securities are purchased or sold).
Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Bond premiums and
discounts are amortized in accordance with Federal income tax
regulations. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are
recorded on the ex-dividend date.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
