INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Contractowners of
American Skandia Life Assurance Corporation
Variable Account B -- Class 3 (Galaxy Annuity) and the
Board of Directors of
American Skandia Life Assurance Corporation
Shelton, Connecticut
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the
eight sub-accounts of American Skandia Life Assurance Corporation Variable
Account B -- Class 3, referred to in Note 1, as of December 31, 1995, and the
related statements of operations and of changes in net assets for the periods
presented. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards 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. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 1995 with the managers of
the mutual funds. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the eight sub-accounts of American Skandia
Life Assurance Corporation Variable Account B -- Class 3, referred to in Note 1,
as of December 31, 1995, the results of their operations and the changes in
their net assets for the periods presented in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

AMERICAN SKANDIA LIFE ASSURANCE CORPORATION
VARIABLE ACCOUNT B -- CLASS 3
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION
American Skandia Life Assurance Corporation Variable Account B -- Class 3 (the
"Account") is a separate investment account of American Skandia Life Assurance
Corporation ("American Skandia"). The Account is registered with the SEC under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a unit investment trust. The Account
commenced operations May 1, 1995.
As of December 31, 1995, the Account consisted of twenty-five sub-accounts.
These financial statements report on eight sub-accounts offered in the Galaxy
Annuity. Each of the eight sub-accounts invests only in a single corresponding
portfolio of either the Galaxy VIP Fund or the American Skandia Trust (the
"Trusts"). Fleet Investment Advisors Inc. is the advisor for The Galaxy VIP
Fund. American Skandia Investment Services, Incorporated is the investment
manager for American Skandia Trust, while Rowe Price-Fleming International,
Inc., Founders Asset Management, Inc., INVESCO Trust Company and Scudder,
Stevens & Clark, Inc. are the sub-advisors. The investment advisors are paid
fees for their services by the respective Trusts.
The following eight sub-accounts have commenced operations during 1995: the
AST-T. Rowe Price International Equity on May 30, 1995; the AST-Founders Capital
Appreciation on May 16, 1995; the AST-INVESCO Equity Income on May 22, 1995; the
AST-Scudder International Bond on May 16, 1995; the VIP-Galaxy Money Market on
May 24, 1995; the VIP-Galaxy Equity on May 16, 1995; the VIP-Galaxy High Quality
Bond on May 31, 1995 and the VIP-Galaxy Asset Allocation on May 19, 1995.
2. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS
The market value of the investments in the sub-accounts is based on the net
asset values of the Trust shares held at the end of the current period.
Transactions are accounted for on the trade date and dividend income is
recognized on an accrual basis. Realized gains and losses on sales of
investments are determined on a first-in first-out basis.
3. INCOME TAXES
American Skandia does not expect to incur any Federal income tax liability on
earnings, or realized capital gains attributable to the Account, therefore, no
charges for Federal income taxes are currently deducted from the Account. If
American Skandia incurs income taxes attributable to the Account, or determines
that such taxes will be incurred, it may make a charge for such taxes against
the Account.
Under current laws, American Skandia may incur state and local income taxes (in
addition to premium tax) in several states. The company does not anticipate that
these will be significant. However, American Skandia may make charges to the
Account in the event that the amount of these taxes change.
4. CONTRACT CHARGES
The following contract charges are paid to American Skandia:
Mortality and Expense Risk Charges -- Charged daily against the
Account at an annual rate of 0.85% of the net assets.
Administrative Fees -- Charged daily against the Account at an annual
rate of .15% of the net assets. A maintenance fee equaling the smaller
of $35 or 2% of the current Account Value is deducted at the end of
each contract year and on surrender.
Transfer Fees -- Charged at a rate of $10 for each transfer after the
fourth in each annuity year.
Contingent Deferred Sales Charges are computed as set forth in the
Galaxy Annuity. These charges may be imposed on the full, or partial
surrender of certain contracts. There is no contingent deferred sales
charge if all premiums were received at least seven complete years
prior to the date of the full or partial surrender.
