Notes to Financial Statements
October 31, 1995
_______________________________________________________________________________
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES. Managed U.S. Government
Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a series of Income Portfolio Trust (the "Trust"),
is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940
Act"), as a no-load, diversified, open-end management investment company. The
Portfolio was organized as a trust under the laws of the State of New York on
September 16, 1992 and commenced operations on November 25, 1992. Pursuant to an
amended and restated declaration of trust dated as of June 8, 1993 (the
"Declaration of Trust"), the Portfolio was reorganized as a series of the Trust.
The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number of
beneficial interests in the Portfolio and other series of the Trust which may be
created from time to time. As explained in Note 5, on December 18, 1995, the
Trustees of the Trust approved and authorized the sale of assets and dissolution
of the Trust.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the
Portfolio.
A. Valuation of Investments. Where market quotations are readily
available, portfolio securities are valued based upon the current bid price. The
Portfolio values Mortgage-Backed Securities and other debt securities for which
market quotations are not readily available at their fair value as determined in
good faith, utilizing procedures approved by the Board of Trustees of the
Portfolio, on the basis of information provided by dealers in such securities.
Some of the general factors which may be considered in determining fair value
include the fundamental analytic data relating to the investment and an
evaluation of the forces which influence the market in which these securities
are purchased and sold. Determination of fair value involves subjective
judgment, as the actual market value of a particular security can be established
only by negotiations between the parties in a sales transaction. Debt securities
having a remaining maturity of sixty days or less when purchased and debt
securities originally purchased with maturities in excess of sixty days but
which currently have maturities of sixty days or less are valued at amortized
cost.
B. Interest Income. Interest income is determined on the basis of
interest accrued and original issue discount earned, adjusted for amortization
of premium or accretion of discount and amortization of market premium when
required or elected for federal income tax purposes. Any paydown gain or loss
associated with mortgage backed securities is included in interest income.

_______________________________________________________________________________
C. Repurchase Agreements. The Portfolio may invest in repurchase
agreements, which are agreements pursuant to which securities are acquired by
the Portfolio from a third party with the commitment that they will be
repurchased by the seller at a fixed price on an agreed upon date. The Portfolio
may enter into repurchase agreements with banks or lenders meeting the
creditworthiness standards established by the Trust's Board of Trustees. The
resale price reflects the purchase price plus an agreed upon market rate of
interest which is unrelated to the coupon rate or date of maturity of the
purchased security.
The use of repurchase agreements involves certain risks. For example, if the
seller of securities under a repurchase agreement defaults on its obligation to
repurchase the underlying securities, the Portfolio will seek to dispose of such
securities, which action could involve costs or delays. To minimize this risk,
the securities collateralizing the repurchase agreement will be held by the
custodian at all times in an amount at least equal to the repurchase price,
including accrued interest. The collateral is marked-to-market daily.
D. Futures. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to
buy and sell a security at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into such
a contract the Portfolio is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash
and/or securities equal to the minimum "initial margin" requirements of the
exchange. Pursuant to the contract, the Portfolio agrees to receive from or pay
to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the
contract. Such receipts or payments are known as "variation margin" and are
recorded by the Portfolio as unrealized gains or losses. When the contract is
closed, the Portfolio records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference
between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the
time it was closed. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the
possibility that there may be an illiquid secondary market and/or that a change
in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the
underlying security.
E. Federal Taxes. The Portfolio will be treated as a partnership for
federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Portfolio will be
taxed on its share of the Portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains. It is
intended that the Portfolio's assets will be managed in such a way that an
investor in the Portfolio will be able to satisfy the requirements of Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code.

F. Deferred Organization Expenses. Expenses incurred by the Portfolio
in connection with its organization are being amortized by the Portfolio on a
straight-line basis over a five-year period. As more fully discussed in Note 5,
remaining unamortized organization expenses will be absorbed by Eastbridge Asset
Management, Inc., the investment adviser, in connection with the planned
liquidation of the Trust.
G. Other. Investment transactions are accounted for on trade date
(the date the security is purchased or sold). Gains and losses are determined on
the basis of identified cost.
2. ADVISORY, ADMINISTRATION AND TRUSTEES' FEES.
A. Investment Advisory Fees. The Portfolio has retained Eastbridge
Asset Management, Inc.("Eastbridge") to make investment decisions for the
Portfolio. For its services under the Investment Advisory Agreement, Eastbridge
receives from the Portfolio a fee accrued daily and paid monthly at an annual
rate equal to 0.35% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. Eastbridge is
currently waiving its investment advisory fee. For the fiscal year ended
October 31, 1995, the Portfolio incurred advisory fees aggregating $48,616,
all of which were waived. (See Note 3).
B. Administration Fees. The Portfolio has retained EBC Distributors,
Inc. ("EBC") to serve as Administrator. Certain officers of EBC serve as
officers to the Portfolio. Under the Administrative Services Agreement, EBC
provides management and administrative services necessary for the operation
of the Portfolio, furnishes office space and facilities required for conducting
the business of the Portfolio and pays the compensation of the Portfolio's
officers affiliated with EBC.
For these services, EBC receives from the Portfolio a fee accrued daily and paid
monthly at an annual rate equal to 0.15% of the Portfolio's average daily net
assets. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995, the Portfolio accrued
administration fees aggregating $20,835, all of which were waived. (See Note 3).
C. Trustees' Fees and Expenses. The fees and expenses of the Trustees
amounted to $11,502 for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995. Trustees
affiliated with EBC or Eastbridge receive no fees for their services.

3. EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT AND WAIVERS. Eastbridge and EBC have each agreed to
voluntarily waive all or a portion of their fees during the initial start up
period. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995, all such fees, totaling
$69,451, were waived. In addition, EBC has voluntarily agreed to reimburse the
Portfolio for certain expenses, such that, following the aforementioned waivers
and reimbursement, the total operating expenses (excluding taxes, brokerage,
interest expense and extraordinary expenses) of the Portfolio will not exceed on
an annual basis 0.50% of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio. For the
fiscal year ended October 31, 1995, this reimbursement amounted to $72,602.
4. INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES. Purchases and sales of investment securities,
other than short-term obligations, aggregated $25,854,210 and $33,018,683,
respectively.

net assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and
financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Trust's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain

accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a resonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
