                   REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
                   ----------------------------------------

To the Trust Administrative Committee of the Teledyne Savings and Retirement
Supplement Plan:

     We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets of the Teledyne
Savings and Retirement Supplement Plan ("the Plan") as of December 31, 1993 and
1992, and the related statement of changes in net assets for the year ended
December 31, 1993.  These financial statements and the data set forth in the
schedules of assets held for investment purposes and reportable transactions
referred to below are the responsibility of the Trust Administrative Committee. 
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and 
the data set forth in the schedules of assets held for investment purposes and
reportable transactions 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 present fairly,
in all material respects, the net assets of the Plan as of December 31, 1993 and
1992, and the changes in net assets for the year ended December 31, 1993 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

     Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole.  The data set forth in the schedules of
assets held for investment purposes and reportable transactions is presented for
the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic
financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department
of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.  Such data has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and,
in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

the Internal Revenue Code.  The Plan has received a favorable determination
letter from the IRS.  In 1994, the Plan sponsor intends to amend the Plan to
meet the requirements of the Tax Reform Act of 1986.  The trust fund, which
holds the investments of the Plan, is a tax-exempt trust under Section 501.

     Under present Federal income tax statutes, regulations and interpretations,
participants pay no income taxes on amounts accumulated in the Plan until those
amounts are actually received.  Basic and Regular Voluntary Contributions are 
not subject to income tax when distributed to the participant since they have 
already been taxed.  A participant's account balance (except for Basic and 
Regular Voluntary Contributions) is taxable income, generally taxed at ordinary 
income tax rates; however, favorable tax treatment may apply.  A 10 percent
Federal income tax penalty is imposed on all taxable income distributed to a 
participant before the age of 59 1/2, except in cases of termination of 
employment when the distribution is rolled over, a payment under a qualified
domestic relations order, disability or death.

Note 7.  Potential Refund of Contributions from Plan Participants - 

     For certain prior years, the Plan may be required by the IRS to refund to
participants designated by the Internal Revenue Code as "Highly Compensated
Employees" ("HCE's") a portion of their contributions and related interest.  
These refunds may occur because the Plan may not have met certain
nondiscrimination tests defined in the Internal Revenue Code that limit the
percentage of total contributions made by HCE's.
