                     REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS



To the Plan Administrator of the Sun Company, Inc. & Subsidiaries
  Stock Supplement Plan:


We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of the Sun Company, Inc. &
Subsidiaries Stock Supplement Plan as of December 31, 1994, and the related
statements of income and changes in members' accounts for each of the three
years in the period ended December 31, 1995.  These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Plan'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.  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, the financial statements referred to above (pages 4 through
6) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Sun Company, Inc. & Subsidiaries Stock Supplement Plan as of December 31,
1995 and 1994, and the results of its operations and changes in members'
accounts for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995,
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

                     SUN COMPANY, INC. & SUBSIDIARIES
                           STOCK SUPPLEMENT PLAN
                       NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1. The Sun Company, Inc. & Subsidiaries Stock Supplement Plan (the "Plan"),
   established July 1, 1975, had a fiscal year ending June 30.  The Plan
   Administrator had adopted a calendar year for financial reporting
   purposes.  Termination of the Plan effective December 31, 1995 (the
   "Termination") was approved by the Compensation Committee of the
   Company's Board of Directors on March 6, 1996.  In connection with the
   Termination, contributions to the Plan were not permitted after
   September 30, 1995 and all assets of the Plan have been distributed. 
   Accordingly, the Plan has no assets, liabilities or members' accounts at
   December 31, 1995.  

   A participant had been permitted to contribute any whole percentage up
   to 20% of base pay.  Every three months cash contributions from
   participants had been used to purchase whole shares of Sun Company, Inc.
   common stock ("Common Stock") which were then sent by the transfer agent
   to members as soon as practicable.  Prior to the purchase of such
   shares, the cash was held by the Plan Trustee, CoreStates Bank.

   Common Stock held at December 31, 1994, which was stated at lower of
   cost or market, represented shares purchased for members for
   distribution in January 1995.  Market value had been determined using
   the closing stock price of the Common Stock as reported in the New York
   Stock Exchange Composite Transactions quotations on the last business
   day of the year.  The payable to broker for securities purchased
   represented amounts owed by the Plan at December 31, 1994 for shares
   purchased by the Trustee on behalf of the individual participants.

   At December 31, 1994 and 1993, there were 440 and 365 members,
   respectively.  The average cost of shares distributed to members was
   $28.62, $29.51 and $25.17 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

2. The Plan was not required to be qualified under the Internal Revenue
   Code; the federal tax treatment of a purchase of Common Stock under the
   Plan was the same as if the securities had been purchased on a
   securities exchange.  In the event that Common Stock was purchased on
   the open market, brokerage commissions paid by Sun Company, Inc. were
   considered taxable income to the participant and withholding was
   required if the participant was a current employee.

3. All costs and expenses in administering the Plan were paid by Sun
   Company, Inc.
