REPORT HIGHLIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summit Income Funds
o Interest rates rose during the six months ended October 31, 1999, aiding
money market results but hurting bonds.
o Summit Cash Reserves Fund achieved solid performance as low expenses helped
its yield exceed that of its peer group average.
o Income helped Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund exceed its peer group's average
returns despite weakness in some corporate holdings.
o Mortgage-backed securities struggled, leading to lackluster returns for the
Summit GNMA Fund.
o We are focusing on providing attractive yields while maintaining liquidity
in our portfolios as we approach year-end.
Fellow Shareholders
The U.S. economy continued its remarkable run of strong, steady growth
during the six and 12 months ended October 31, 1999, and signs of inflation
were modest. Nonetheless, the Federal Reserve raised the federal funds
target rate twice, and interest rates overall rose significantly. Money
market funds largely benefited, while bond funds posted comparatively weak
results. The performance of the Summit Funds reflected these trends.
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
There was little doubt during either the past six or 12 months that the
U.S. economy was on solid footing. Annual GDP data have painted an
attractive picture, with growth rates fluctuating between 3.5% and 4.5% for
nearly three years now. Moreover, the consumer and producer price indices
(CPI and PPI), the most commonly reported inflation figures, have generally
appeared subdued. During the past spring and summer, however, economic data
hinted at an increase in inflationary pressure. Persistently low
unemployment figures suggested uncomfortably tight labor markets, and the
prices of raw materials and intermediate goods (so-called "pipeline"
prices) showed signs of increasing. Although price increases for finished
goods and services remained in check, the engines of that
inflation-including strong consumer spending fueled by rising stock markets
and home prices, improved productivity, and faster information flow due to
the Internet-have remained in high gear.

The Fed had largely been staying on the sidelines, concerned that a U.S.
rate hike would put untenable pressure on fragile foreign economies in the
wake of the 1998 global currency and liquidity crisis. However, an
improving outlook overseas combined with evidence of inflationary pressure
prompted a change in direction. The Fed first adopted a tightening bias in
its monetary policy, then raised the federal funds target rate in June and
August, by a total of one-half a percentage point. After the conclusion of
the period, the Fed raised rates by another 0.25%. As of this writing, the
target rate has returned to its level of August 1998, just before the Fed
cut rates three-quarters of a percent to alleviate the global financial
crisis.
The market largely anticipated these moves, pushing rates on intermediate
and long bonds higher throughout the year. For example, five-year Treasury
note yields climbed 187 basis points to 6.09% by October 31 from one year
earlier (100 basis points equal one percentage point). Short-term rates did
not climb as rapidly for the year as a whole-the yield on 90-day Treasury
bills rose less than 100 basis points over the same period-but made up
ground on other segments of the bond market toward the end of the period.
Yields on money market funds benefited from the increase in short-term
rates.
Rates rose among mortgage-backed securities as well. Thirty-year mortgage
rates, for example, rose from 6.93% to 7.96% in the six months ended
October 31, and reached a two-year high of 8.15% in August. During that
time, the spread (difference) between mortgage and Treasury rates also
widened by 15 basis points. Current coupon GNMAs now yield 148 basis points
more than 10-year Treasuries, although they were yielding as much as 182
basis points more in August. This attractive yield advantage helped the
overall sector outperform intermediate and long Treasuries by a modest
degree.
The rising interest rate environment was not the only challenge the bond
markets faced. In the past several months, Wall Street broker-dealers have
cut back their bond market activities in advance of year-end by reducing
bond inventories and committing less capital to market-making (that is,
buying and selling existing issues for clients). As a result, liquidity
declined significantly after midyear and is likely to stay somewhat thin
through year-end. Reduced liquidity exaggerated volatility in the markets,
especially in response to negative surprises, and made it more difficult
for money managers to trade efficiently. The trend also created supply and
demand imbalances that hurt issues with relatively high yields, including
corporate and mortgage-backed bonds. However, mortgages improved after
August and now are among the more liquid bonds in the marketplace.
SUMMIT CASH RESERVES FUND
Performance Comparison
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Periods Ended 10/31/99 6 Months 12 Months
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cash Reserves Fund 2.40% 4.87%
Lipper Money Market
Funds Average 2.21 4.41
Your fund posted good 6- and 12-month returns of 2.40% and 4.87%,
respectively. These results surpassed the 2.21% and 4.41% gains for the
Lipper Money Market Funds Average by a notable margin. The fund once again
benefited from a yield advantage over its average competitor, the result of
its low expenses as well as an investment focus on income. At 0.45% per
year, fund expenses are lower than 91% of the 294 funds in its Lipper
category.
Rising interest rates during the period prompted a modest shift in our
investment strategy. Earlier in the fiscal year, rates had been relatively
low and the fund's dividend yield had been slipping as a result. As we
noted in the last shareholder report, our strategy at the time was to
capture the higher yields at the longer end of the money market universe by
maintaining an average maturity 10 to 15 days longer than our average peer.
With rates rising, however, the dividend yield has been climbing during the
last six months. We therefore reduced the portfolio's weighted average
maturity from 74 days on April 30, 1999, to a more neutral 62 days on
October 31, 1999. As long as the Fed is likely to continue raising interest
rates, we will preserve an average maturity that is generally equal to or
shorter than the average money market fund.
We made only minor changes to the portfolio's sector positioning. The only
change of significance was to increase our stake in asset-backed
securities. We are attracted to these holdings because they are extremely
high-quality, liquid securities that are securely collateralized by
receivables or other assets. They add to the fund's diversification, and we
expect they will provide added protection and flexibility as we prepare to
pass through the year-end.
We increased fund exposure to floating rate notes from 15% of assets at the
end of April to 32% at the end of October. Issuance of these securities
increased dramatically during the middle of the year as they became a
popular form of Year 2000 financing. The increased supply forced issuers to
price their offerings somewhat more attractively than in the last couple of
years to attract buyers. Floating rate issues are designed so that their
coupons track rate changes relatively quickly-a benefit to shareholders
when rates are rising.
SUMMIT LIMITED-TERM BOND FUND
Performance Comparison
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Periods Ended 10/31/99 6 Months 12 Months
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Limited-Term Bond Fund 0.42% 1.06%
Lipper Short Intermediate
Investment-Grade
Debt Funds Average 0.38 1.44
Your fund's 0.42% six-month total return edged ahead of the 0.38% move for
the Lipper peer group average. Although the return was modest and
outperformance was slight, it represented a recovery from a somewhat weaker
relative result in the first half of the year, when above average interest
rate sensitivity caused the fund to lag its peers. Those results are
reflected in the 1.06% 12-month return, which stayed behind Lipper. Because
rising interest rates caused a decline in the fund's share price for both
periods, gains came entirely from income. Low expenses-the 0.55% expense
ratio is firmly in the least costly quartile of the 83-fund Lipper peer
group-once again helped the fund achieve a relatively generous income
stream.
Because of the rising interest rate environment, we gradually reduced fund
duration during the six-month period from 3.2 years to 3.0 years. (Duration
is a measure of interest rate sensitivity where higher numbers reflect a
greater potential negative response to a rise in rates, and vice versa.)
The fund remains somewhat more rate sensitive than its average peer, but
longer durations are generally associated with better yields, and we feel
that this duration level reflects an appropriate balance between the costs
of rate sensitivity and the benefits of better yields. Although rates rose
sharply during the past six months, they have yet to show up as increases
in the fund's dividend payment. Dividend income tends to lag a rise in
market rates, and, assuming rates do not again fall sharply, we anticipate
higher distributions in the coming period.
As explained in the last report, we trimmed exposure to corporate bonds
from 56% to 44% earlier in the year. This move proved beneficial: corporate
securities (and lower-rated securities in particular) underperformed
throughout most of the summer because of poor market liquidity and the lack
of Wall Street sponsorship. During August and September we saw an
opportunity to take advantage of values created by the liquidity crunch and
began to rebuild our corporate position, raising it to 47% of assets. Among
the bonds we added were Johnson & Johnson, Wal-Mart, and US West. As a
result of these moves, holdings in Treasuries declined while, within the
corporate sector, consumer issues increased from 11% to 13% and the media
and telecom issues rose from 3% to 4%.
Quality diversification reflected our renewed interest in corporates. The
percentage of assets in AAA securities declined from 44% to 38% during the
period, while AA and A holdings both climbed. Nonetheless, average
portfolio credit quality did not change, remaining at a solid AA.

Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund
AAA AA A BBB BB

Not all of the fund's investments worked out favorably. In particular, some
of our corporate holdings weakened as their issuers encountered problems.
In August, we purchased the debt of Rite-Aid, but the firm's surprise
downward earnings revisions and management upheaval disappointed investors,
drew SEC attention, and resulted in rating agency downgrades to below
investment grade. We continue to hold these bonds because we think the
market has become overly pessimistic in its evaluation. Rite-Aid has a
viable business as the nation's third-largest drug store chain, and new
management is taking aggressive action to restore the company's financial
health. Other holdings have come under pressure and may weigh down returns
in the coming months. These include Waste Management/USA Waste Services (at
1.25% of assets) and Raytheon (at 0.89% of assets), both of which
experienced earnings difficulties associated with recent merger activity.
Although these investments increased price volatility in recent months, we
are not giving up on them. They contribute significantly to an attractive
dividend yield that we believe will benefit shareholders over the long
term.
SUMMIT GNMA FUND
Performance Comparison
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Periods Ended 10/31/99 6 Months 12 Months
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GNMA Fund -0.32% 1.39%
Lipper GNMA Funds Average -0.18 1.48
A difficult market environment overall proved challenging to your fund
during the past six months. Our -0.32% total return for the period fell
slightly behind the -0.18% result of the Lipper GNMA Funds Average, and
accounted for a modestly lagging 12-month performance as well. Healthy
dividend distributions, aided by low expenses, helped compensate for a
$0.34 decline in the fund's share price between April 30 and October 31.
The fund's 0.60% expense ratio is in the lowest quartile of the 48 funds in
its Lipper peer group.
Your fund's returns reflected the continually rising interest rate
environment of the last six months. In addition, the mortgage market (along
with other relatively high-yielding investments) faced an additional
challenge of supply and demand. The liquidity crunch described in the
Market Environment section limited the number of buyers, especially in
August, when it temporarily appeared that no one was interested in buying
or holding these issues.
This was especially true of many of the kinds of "structured" products we
hold in the portfolio. While we have reduced our holdings in recent months,
we have for many quarters kept a stake in these securities, which include
collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), project loans, construction
loans, and jumbos, because they help protect performance against
fluctuating prepayments during unsettled interest rate environments.
(Prepayments can negatively affect total return when homeowners refinance
their high-rate mortgages, causing premium-priced mortgage-backed bonds to
be cashed out at par. In that case, the premium and the higher yield are
lost.) These holdings aided returns during the first half of the fiscal
year. However, even though the securities we held remained fundamentally
solid, they were hard hit and difficult to sell when liquidity disappeared
from the market and helped pull down our relative performance. Fortunately,
the liquidity crunch improved significantly as the period was coming to a
close. Still, although we continue to like structured products as an
investment tool, we took incremental steps to improve the portfolio's
liquidity by reducing our exposure where possible.
Rising rates and falling prepayments caused the fund's duration to climb
from 4.0 years to 5.0 years during the past six months, although it
remained neutral compared with our Lipper benchmark. Mortgage durations
typically go up when interest rates rise because the likelihood of
refinancing declines. As always, the credit quality of the portfolio
remained very high.
OUTLOOK
Interest rates could move higher in coming months because of persistent
strength in the domestic economy and economic recovery overseas. The Fed is
keeping a close eye on inflationary pressures, particularly in the labor
markets. However, the Fed is also interested in maintaining liquid and
orderly markets as we approach the end of the year and the transition to
2000, which could serve to moderate future rate increases. These
crosscurrents do not argue for an aggressive posture regarding interest
rates. At present, we are focusing on the higher yields available in the
marketplace and on maintaining liquidity and flexibility in our portfolios.

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
T. Rowe Price Summit Income Funds, Inc. (the corporation) is registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Summit Cash Reserves Fund
(the Cash Reserves Fund), the Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund (the
Limited-Term Bond Fund), and the Summit GNMA Fund (the GNMA Fund),
diversified, open-end management investment companies, are the three
portfolios established by the corporation and commenced operations on
October 29, 1993.
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for the investment company
industry; these principles may require the use of estimates by fund
management.
Valuation Debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter
market. Except for securities held by the Cash Reserves Fund, investments
in securities with original maturities of one year or more are stated at
fair value as furnished by dealers who make markets in such securities or
by an independent pricing service, which considers yield or price of bonds
of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, and type, as well as prices quoted
by dealers who make markets in such securities. Securities with original
maturities of less than one year are stated at fair value, which is
determined by using a matrix system that establishes a value for each
security based on money market yields. Securities held by the Cash Reserves
Fund are valued at amortized cost.
Investments in mutual funds are valued at the closing net asset value per
share of the mutual fund on the day of valuation.
Assets and liabilities for which the above valuation procedures are
inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are stated at fair
value as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the
officers of that fund, as authorized by the Board of Directors.
Premiums and Discounts Premiums and discounts on debt securities, other
than mortgage-backed securities (MBS), are amortized for both financial
reporting and tax purposes. Premiums and discounts on all MBS are
recognized upon disposition or principal repayment as gain or loss for
financial reporting purposes. For tax purposes, premiums and discounts on
MBS acquired on or before June 8, 1997, are recognized upon disposition or
principal repayment as ordinary income. For MBS acquired after June 8,
1997, premiums are recognized as gain or loss; discounts are recognized as
gain or loss, except to the extent of accrued market discount.
Other Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment
transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses
are reported on the identified cost basis. Distributions to shareholders

regulations and may differ from those determined in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.

expires in 2007. The Limited-Term Bond Fund had capital loss carryforwards

of which $131,000 expires in 2003, $142,000 in 2004, and $132,000 in 2005.

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The investment management and administrative agreement between each fund
and T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (the manager) provides for an
all-inclusive annual fee, of which $1,076,000, $18,000, and $53,000 were
payable at October 31, 1999 by the Cash Reserves, Limited-Term Bond, and
GNMA Funds, respectively. The fee, computed daily and paid monthly, is
equal to 0.45% of average daily net assets for the Cash Reserves Fund,
0.55% of average daily net assets for the Limited-Term Bond Fund, and 0.60%
of average daily net assets for the GNMA Fund. Pursuant to the agreement,
investment management, shareholder servicing, transfer agency, accounting,
and custody services are provided to each fund, and interest, taxes,
brokerage commissions, and extraordinary expenses are paid directly by each
fund.
Additionally, the Cash Reserves Fund is one of several T. Rowe
Price-sponsored mutual funds (underlying funds) in which the T. Rowe Price
Spectrum Funds (Spectrum) may invest. Spectrum does not invest in the
underlying funds for the purpose of exercising management or control.
Expenses associated with the operation of Spectrum are borne by each
underlying fund to the extent of estimated savings to it and in proportion
to the average daily value of its shares owned by Spectrum, pursuant to
special servicing agreements between and among Spectrum, the underlying
funds, T. Rowe Price, and, in the case of T. Rowe Price Spectrum
International, Rowe Price-Fleming International. At October 31, 1999, no
Spectrum Funds held outstanding shares of the Cash Reserves Fund. For the
year then ended, the Cash Reserves Fund was allocated $13,000 of Spectrum
expenses.
The Limited-Term Bond and GNMA Funds may invest in the Reserve Investment
Fund and Government Reserve Investment Fund (collectively, the Reserve
Funds), open-end management investment companies managed by T. Rowe Price
Associates, Inc. The Reserve Funds are offered as cash management options
only to mutual funds and other accounts managed by T. Rowe Price and its
affiliates and are not available to the public. The Reserve Funds pay no
investment management fees. Distributions from the Reserve Funds to the
Limited-Term Bond and the GNMA Funds for the year ended October 31, 1999,
totaled $162,000 and $148,000, respectively, and are reflected as interest
income in the accompanying Statement of Operations.

Report of Independent Accountants
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Board of Directors of T. Rowe Price Summit Funds, Inc.
and Shareholders of Summit Cash Reserves Fund,
Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund and Summit GNMA Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets (Summit Cash
Reserves Fund and Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund) and the statement of
assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments (Summit GNMA
Fund), and the related statements of operations and of changes in net
assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Summit Cash Reserves Fund, Summit
Limited-Term Bond Fund and Summit GNMA Fund (comprising T. Rowe Price
Summit Funds, Inc., hereafter referred to as the "Funds") at October 31,
1999, and the results of each of their operations, the changes in each of
their net assets and the financial highlights for each of the fiscal
periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter
referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Funds'
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 reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31,
1999 by correspondence with the custodian, provide a reasonable basis for
the opinion expressed above.
