DEAN WITTER LIQUID ASSET FUND INC.
Two World Trade Center
New York, New York 10048
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As of February 28, 1994, Dean Witter Liquid Asset Fund Inc. had assets in excess
of $8.1 billion and an average maturity of 66 days. The Fund's annualized yield
for the six-month period ended February 28, 1994 was 2.66 percent.
UPWARD MOVING YIELDS
The first five months of the period under review were characterized by
stability. February, however, brought a significant departure from this trend,
as yields began to move upward. For example, in late January, one-year U.S.
Treasury bills were yielding 3.35 percent. By early March yields had reached
4.05 percent, a 70 basis point (0.70 percent) move. Yields on shorter-term
money-market instruments rose by a more modest 25 to 35 basis points following
the Federal Reserve Board's increase of the federal funds rate (the rate banks
charge each other for overnight loans) from 3.00 percent to 3.25 percent -- an
attempt to stay one step ahead of potential inflationary pressures.
PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION
On February 28, 1994, approximately 81 percent of the portfolio was invested in
top quality commercial paper, 17 percent in U.S. Treasury and federal agency
obligations, 2 percent in short-term bank notes and 1 percent in negotiable
certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances of major depository
institutions. More than 75 percent of the Fund's assets mature in less than
three months. Therefore, the portfolio is well positioned to take advantage of
any further upward interest rate movements.
While commercial paper was the Fund's largest category of investment as of
February 28, 1994, the portfolio was well diversified by industry and issuer.
Each issuer is carefully selected from top quality candidates and is reviewed on
a continuous basis. At the conclusion of the period under review, no one
commercial paper issuer's obligation exceeded 4.7 percent of the Fund's total
assets. Federal agency discount notes another significant component of the
portfolio at the end of the period. These extremely liquid securities were
consisted of obligations of the Federal National Mortgage Association, the
Federal Home Loan Banks and the Federal Farm Credit Bank.
THE OUTLOOK
Most economic and monetary indicators currently reflect a higher-than-expected
pace of activity. We believe that the Federal Reserve Board may take additional
steps to raise short-term interest rates. Consequently, we have slightly reduced
the Fund's average life and will closely monitor the pace of economic activity
to determine whether further shortening of the portfolio's average life is
warranted.
We appreciate your support of Dean Witter Liquid Asset Fund Inc. and look
forward to continuing to serve your investment needs and objectives.
Very truly yours,
Charles A. Fiumefreddo
Chairman of the Board

1. ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- Dean Witter Liquid Asset Fund Inc.
(the "Fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the "Act"), as a diversified, open-end management investment company and was
incorporated in Maryland on September 3, 1974. The Fund commenced operations on
September 22, 1975.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:
A. Valuation of Investments -- Portfolio securities are valued at amortized
cost, which approximates market value.
B. Accounting for Investments -- Security transactions are accounted for on
the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). In computing
net investment income, the Fund amortizes premiums and discounts on
securities owned. Realized gains and losses on security transactions are
determined on the identified cost method.
C. Federal Income Tax Status -- 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 taxable income to its
shareholders. Accordingly, no federal income tax provision is required.
D. Dividends to Shareholders -- The Fund records dividends to its
shareholders on the record date.
E. Repurchase Agreements -- The Fund's custodian takes possession on behalf
of the Fund of the collateral pledged for investments in repurchase
agreements. It is the policy of the Fund to value the underlying collateral
daily on a mark-to-market basis to determine that the value, including
accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price plus accrued
interest. In the event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Fund
has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in
satisfaction of the obligation.
2. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT -- Pursuant to an Investment Management
Agreement (the "Agreement") with Dean Witter InterCapital Inc. (the "Investment
Manager"), the Fund pays the Investment Manager monthly compensation calculated
daily by applying the following annual rates to the net assets of the Fund
determined as of the close of each business day: 0.50% of the portion of the
daily net assets not exceeding $500 million; 0.425% of the portion of the daily
net assets exceeding $500 million but not exceeding $750 million; 0.375% of the
portion of the daily net assets exceeding $750 million but not exceeding $1
billion; 0.35% of the portion of the daily net assets exceeding $1 billion but
not exceeding $1.35 billion; 0.325% of the portion of the daily net assets
exceeding $1.35 billion but not exceeding $1.75 billion; 0.30% of the portion of
the daily net assets exceeding $1.75 billion but not exceeding $2.15 billion;
0.275% of the portion of the daily net assets exceeding $2.15 billion but not
exceeding $2.5 billion; 0.25% of the portion of the daily net assets exceeding
$2.5 billion but not exceeding $15 billion; 0.249% of the portion of the daily
net assets exceeding $15 billion but not exceeding $17.5 billion; and 0.248% of
the portion of the daily net assets exceeding $17.5 billion. Under the terms of
the Agreement, in addition to managing the Fund's investments, the Investment
Manager maintains certain of the Fund's books and records and furnishes office
space and facilities, equipment, clerical, bookkeeping and certain legal
services, and pays the salaries of all personnel, including officers of the Fund
who are employees of the Investment Manager. The Investment Manager also bears
the cost of telephone services, heat, light, power and other utilities provided

3. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION -- Dean Witter Distributors Inc. (the "Distributor"),
an affiliate of the Investment Manager, is the distributor of the Fund's shares
and, in accordance with a Plan of Distribution (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule
12b-1 under the Act, finances certain expenses in connection therewith.
Under the Plan, the Distributor bears the expense of all promotional and
distribution related activities on behalf of the Fund, except for expenses that

The Fund is authorized to reimburse the Distributor for specific expenses

Fund's shares. The amount of each monthly reimbursement payment may in no event
exceed an amount equal to a payment at the annual rate of .15% of the Fund's
