PENNSYLVANIA DAILY MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
===============================================================================
1. Summary of Accounting Policies.
Pennsylvania Daily Municipal Income Fund, a Massachusetts business trust, is a
no-load, non-diversified, open-end management investment company registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Its financial statements are prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for investment
companies as follows:
a) Valuation of Securities -
Investments are valued at amortized cost. Under this valuation method, a
portfolio instrument is valued at cost and any discount or premium is
amortized on a constant basis to the maturity of the instrument. The
maturity of variable rate demand instruments is deemed to be the longer of
the period required before the Fund is entitled to receive payment of the
principal amount or the period remaining until the next interest rate
adjustment.
b) Federal Income Taxes -
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
all of its tax exempt and taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no
provision for federal income tax is required.
c) Dividends and Distributions -
Dividends from investment income (excluding capital gains and losses, if
any, and amortization of market discount) are declared daily and paid
monthly. Distributions of net capital gains, if any, realized on sales of
investments are made after the close of the Fund's fiscal year, as declared
by the Fund's Board of Trustees.
d) General -
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income
is accrued as earned. Realized gains and losses from securities
transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis.
2. Investment Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Under the Investment Management Contract, the Fund pays an investment management
fee to Reich & Tang Asset Management L.P. (Manager), equal to .40% of the Fund's
average daily net assets. The Manager is required to reimburse the Fund for its
expenses (exclusive of interest, taxes, brokerage, and extraordinary expenses)
to the extent that such expenses, including the investment management and the
shareholder servicing and administration fees, for any fiscal year exceed the
limits on investment company expenses prescribed by any state in which the
Fund's shares are qualified for sale. No such reimbursement was required for the
year ended November 30, 1995.
Pursuant to an Administrative Services Contract the Fund pays to the Manager an
annual fee of .20% of the Fund's average daily net assets not in excess of $1.25
billion, plus .19% of such assets in excess of $1.25 billion but not in excess
of $1.5 billion, plus .18% of such assets in excess of $1.5 billion.
The Manager is a wholly-owned subsidiary of New England Investment Companies,
L.P. ("NEIC"). On August 16, 1995, New England Mutual Life Insurance Company
("The New England"), the owner of NEIC's general partner and a majority owner of
the limited partnership interest in NEIC, entered into an agreement to merge
with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company ("MetLife"), with MetLife to be the
survivor of the merger. The merger is subject to several conditions, including
the required approval, by shareholders of the Fund of a proposed new investment
advisory agreement, intended to take effect at the time of the merger. The new
agreement will be substantially similar to the existing agreement.

===============================================================================
2. Investment Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
(Continued).
Pursuant to a distribution and service plan adopted under Securities and
Exchange Commission Rule 12b-1, the Fund and Reich & Tang Distributors L.P.,
(the Distributor), an affiliate of the Manager, have entered into a Distribution
Agreement and a Shareholder Servicing Agreement. For its services under the
Shareholder Servicing Agreement, the Distributor receives from the Fund a fee
equal to .25% of the Fund's average daily net assets. There were no additional
expenses borne by the Fund pursuant to the Distribution Plan.
For the year ended November 30, 1995 the Manager voluntarily waived investment
management fees and administration fees and the Distributor voluntarily waived
shareholder servicing fees of $63,396, $77,767 and $97,209, respectively.
Fees are paid to Trustees who are unaffiliated with the Manager on the basis of
$1,000 per annum plus $250 per meeting attended.
Included in the Statement of Operations under the caption "Custodian,
shareholder servicing and related shareholder expenses" are fees of $19,354 paid
to Fundtech Services L.P., an affiliate of the Manager, as servicing agent for
the Fund.
3. Capital Stock.
At November 30, 1995, an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest ($.01
par value) were authorized and capital paid in amounted to $40,981,143.
Transactions in capital stock, all at $1.00 per share, were as follows:

4. Concentration of Credit Risk.
The Fund invests primarily in obligations of political subdivisions of the State
of Pennsylvania and, accordingly, is subject to the credit risk associated with
the non-performance of such issuers. Approximately 65% of these investments are
further secured, as to principal and interest, by letters of credit issued by
financial institutions. The Fund maintains a policy of monitoring its exposure
by reviewing the credit worthiness of the issuers, as well as that of the
financial institutions issuing the letters of credit, and by limiting the amount
of holdings with letters of credit from one financial institution.
