NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
A. ORGANIZATION:
At May 31, 1995, Dimensional Investment Group Inc. (the "Fund") consisted
of eight portfolios, The DFA 6-10 Institutional Portfolio, U.S. Small Cap
Value Portfolio II, U.S. Large Cap Value Portfolio II, U.S. Large Cap Value
Portfolio III, DFA One-Year Fixed Income Portfolio II, The DFA International
Value Portfolio, DFA International Value Portfolio II and DFA International
Value Portfolio III (the "Portfolios"). The Fund is an open-end management
investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, whose
shares are offered to institutional investors, retirement plans, and clients
of registered investment advisors. The financial statements of The DFA
One-Year Fixed Income Portfolio (the "Portfolio") are presented herein, the
financial statements for the other Portfolios are presented elsewhere.
The Portfolio invests all of its assets in The DFA One-Year Fixed Income
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 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 period 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 0.10 of 1%.
Certain officers of the Portfolio are also officers, directors and
shareholders of the Advisor.
During April, 1995, the Advisor began 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 2.50% 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 DFA One-Year Fixed Income
Series (the "Series").
On February 8, 1993, The DFA One-Year Fixed Income Portfolio of DFA
Investment Dimensions Group Inc. (the "Fund") transferred its investable
assets for shares with equal values of a corresponding Series of the Trust
(the "Exchange").
The DFA One-Year Fixed Income 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 are valued on the
basis of prices provided by a pricing service when such prices are believed
to reflect the fair market value of such securities. Securities for which
market quotations are not readily available are valued 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.
