of registered investment advisors. The financial statements of The U.S. Large 
Cap Value Portfolio II (the "Portfolio") are presented herein, the financial 
statements for the other Portfolios are presented elsewhere. 

   The Portfolio invests all of its assets in The U.S. Large Cap Value Series 
(the "Series"), a corresponding series of The DFA Investment Trust Company. 
At May 31, 1995, the Portfolio owned 1% of the outstanding shares of the 
Series. The financial statements of the Series are included elsewhere in this 
report and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the 
Portfolio. 

B. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: 

   The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. Such 
policies are consistently followed by the Fund in preparation of its 
financial statements. 

   1. Security Valuation: The shares of the Series held by the Portfolio are 
valued at its respective daily Net Asset Value. 

   2. Federal Income Taxes: It is the Portfolio's intention to continue to 
qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable 
income. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income tax is required in the 
financial statements. 

   3. Other: Security transactions are accounted for on the date the 
securities are purchased or sold. Costs used in determining realized gains 
and losses on the sale of investment securities are those of specific 
securities sold. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are 
recorded on the ex-dividend date. Expenses directly attributable to the 
Portfolio or to the Series are directly charged. Common expenses are 
allocated using methods determined by the Board of Directors. 

C. INVESTMENT ADVISOR: 

   Dimensional Fund Advisors Inc. (the "Advisor") provides administrative 
services to the Portfolio, including supervision of services provided by 
others, providing information to the shareholders and to the Board of 
Directors, and other administrative services. The Advisor provides investment 
advisory services to the Series. For the six months ended May 31, 1995, the 
Portfolio's administrative fees were computed daily and paid monthly to the 
Advisor based on an effective annual rate of 0.15 of 1%. 

   Certain officers of the Portfolio are also officers, directors and 
shareholders of the Advisor. 

   The Advisor has agreed to waive its fees and reimburse the Portfolio to 
the extent necessary to keep the annual combined expenses of the Portfolio 
and its respective Master Fund to not more than 0.96% of average daily net 
assets.

                       THE DFA INVESTMENT TRUST COMPANY 

                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
                                 (UNAUDITED) 

A. ORGANIZATION: 

   The DFA Investment Trust Company (the "Trust") is an open-end management 
investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. At 
May 31, 1995, The Trust consisted of seven investment portfolios: The U.S. 
6-10 Small Company Series, The U.S. Large Company Series, The U.S. Small Cap 
Value Series, The U.S. Large Cap Value Series, The DFA One-Year Fixed Income 
Series, The DFA International Value Series and The Emerging Markets Series. 
These financial statements relate solely to The U.S. Large Cap Value Series 
(the "Series"). 

   The U.S. Large Cap Value Portfolio II invests solely in the Series. The 
Series also issues its shares to other investors. 

B. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: 

   The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with 
generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. Such 
policies are consistently followed by the Trust in preparation of its 
financial statements. 

   1. Security Valuation: Securities held by the Series which are listed on a 
securities exchange and for which market quotations are readily available are 
valued at the last quoted sale price of the day, or if there is no such 
reported sale, at the mean between the most recent bid and asked prices. 
Price information on listed securities is taken from the exchange where the 
security is primarily traded. 

   Unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily available are 
valued at the mean between the most recent bid and asked prices. The value of 
securities for which no quotations are readily available are determined in 
good faith at fair value using methods determined by the Board of Directors. 

   2. Federal Income Taxes: It is the Series intention to continue to qualify 
as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. 
Accordingly, no provision for Federal taxes is required in the financial 
statements. 

   3. Repurchase Agreements: The Series may purchase money market instruments 
subject to the seller's agreement to repurchase them at an agreed upon date 
and price. The seller will be required on a daily basis to maintain the value 
of the collateral subject to the agreement at not less than the repurchase 
price (including accrued interest). The agreements are conditioned upon the 
collateral being deposited under the Federal Reserve book-entry system or 
with the Fund's custodian or a third party sub-custodian. All repurchase 
agreements were entered into on May 31, 1995. 

   4. Reclassifications: As of December 1, 1993, the Series implemented AICPA 
Statement of Position 93-2 - Determination, Disclosure and Financial 
Statement Presentation of Income, Capital Gain, and Return of Capital 
Distributions by Investment Companies. Adoption of this standard results in 
the reclassification to paid-in capital of permanent differences between tax 
and financial reporting of net investment income and net realized 
gain/(loss). The change has had no material effect on paid-in capital or 
other components of net assets at December 1, 1993. Distributions to 
shareholders and net asset values were not affected by this change. 

   5. Other: Security transactions are accounted for on the date the 
securities are purchased or sold. Costs used in determining realized gains 
and losses on the sale of investment securities are those of specific 
securities sold. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are 
recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual 
basis. Discount and premium on securities purchased are amortized over the 
lives of the respective securities. Expenses directly attribute to a Series 
are directly charged. Common expenses are allocated using methods determined 
by the Board of Directors. 

                                      14
