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. The Fund is a short term, tax exempt
money market  fund.  The Fund has two classes of stock  authorized,  Class A and
Class B. The  Class A shares  are  subject  to a  service  fee  pursuant  to the
Distribution  and Service Plan.  The Class B shares are not subject to a service
fee.  Additionally,  the Fund may allocate among its classes certain expenses to
the extent  allowable  to  specific  classes,  including  transfer  agent  fees,
government   registration   fees,   certain  printing  and  postage  costs,  and
administrative  and legal  expenses.  Class  Specific  expenses of the Fund were
limited to  distribution  fees and minor transfer agent  expenses.  In all other
respects  the  Class A and Class B shares  represent  the same  interest  in the
income  and assets of the Fund.  Distribution  for Class B shares  commenced  on
October 10, 1996 and all Fund shares  outstanding  before  October 10, 1996 were
designated as Class A shares.  The Fund's  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) Use of Estimates - 
     The  preparation  of financial  statements  in  conformity  with  generally
     accepted  accounting  principles  requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions  that effect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
     disclosure  of  contingent  assets  and  liabilities  at  the  date  of the
     financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in
     net assets from  operations  during the reporting  period.  Actual  results
     could differ from those estimates.

     e)  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

2. Investment Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates (Continued)
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, 1996.

Pursuant to an Administrative  Services Contract the Fund pays to the Manager an
annual fee of .21% of the Fund's average daily net assets not in excess of $1.25
billion,  plus .20% of such assets in excess of $1.25  billion but not in excess
of $1.5 billion, plus .19% of such assets in excess of $1.5 billion.

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, 1996 the Manager  voluntarily  waived investment
management fees and administration  fees and the Distributor  voluntarily waived
shareholder servicing fees of $28,516, $80,051 and $88,039, 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 captions  "custodian fee" and
"shareholder  servicing and related shareholder expenses" are expense offsets of
$2,159.

Included in the Statement of Operations under the caption "shareholder servicing
and  related  shareholder  expenses"  are fees of  $22,507  paid to Reich & Tang
Services L.P., an affiliate of the Manager, as servicing agent for the Fund.

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 66% 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.
