Portfolio Management Review


In the following interview, Lead Portfolio Manager Darlene Rasel and other members of the fund's investment team discuss the market environment and investment strategy for the fund's most recent semiannual period ended November 30, 2003.

Q: How did the fund perform over its most recent semiannual period?

A: Over the six-month period ended November 30, 2003, the fund's seven-day yield declined from 0.54% on May 31, 2003, to 0.18%, reflecting the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decision to reduce the federal funds rate by another 0.25 percentage point on June 25, 2003. For the semiannual period ended November 30, Class S shares of the fund returned 0.15%. This fund offers a variety of share classes. (Please see the Financial Highlights beginning on page 13 for the performance of other share classes and more complete performance information. All performance is historical and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Please visit our Web sites for the product's most recent month-end performance: myScudder.com for S shares and aarp.scudder.com for AARP shares. The yield quotation more closely reflects the current earnings of the fund than does the total-return quotation. Yields fluctuate and are not guaranteed.)

Q: How would you describe the economic environment for money market securities over the fund's most recent six-month period?

A: At the start of the period, amid disappointing manufacturing reports and declining consumer confidence - underscoring a gloomy employment picture - most market forecasters predicted that the Fed would reduce

short-term interest rates by one-half of a percentage point at its meetings in late June. Given that the federal funds rate was already at its lowest level since 1961, we thought that a 0.25 percentage point cut was more likely, and that is what occurred at the June 25 meeting.

Q: What took place following the Fed decision on interest rates?

A: In the period immediately following the Fed move, the money market yield curve1 steepened. Then, employment statistics turned more positive, manufacturing reports began to improve and consumer confidence rose as the fiscal stimulus initiated by the Bush administration earlier in 2003 began to have an effect. We started to see real signs of economic recovery, and the yield curve began to steepen (i.e., yields increasing proportionately with length of time to maturity) in subsequent months.

1 Yield curve - a graph showing the term structure of interest rates by plotting the yields of all debt instruments (e.g., money market securities) of the same quality with maturities ranging from the shortest to the longest appropriate maturities. A steepening yield curve means that the current trend is for yields to become higher as the maturities of money market instruments lengthen. For example, a one-year security would have a higher yield than a money market instrument with a six-month maturity.

Q: Why has the money market yield curve steepened as economic news has improved?

A: We believe the market has already "priced in" the expectation that the strong economic data that we've seen fairly consistently for the past two months will eventually lead to the Fed's having to raise interest rates. The market appears to view this as a given, and the only uncertainty concerns the timing of the increases - will they begin with the March 2004 FOMC meetings, or in June 2004 or after that? At this time, there is essentially no inflation present in the US economy. When the economy strengthens, however, inflationary pressures typically emerge. So, we expect investors purchasing longer-term securities will want some built-in inflation protection in the form of higher interest rates. These expectations and investor demands appear to account for the steepening yield curve, and they can benefit money market investors over time.

Q: What was the fund's strategy during the period?

A: During the six-month period, we have pursued a "barbell" strategy, buying short-term securities, including very short-term repurchase agreements2 as well as longer-term Treasury bills.

2 Repurchase Agreement (Repo) - an agreement between a seller and a buyer, usually of government securities, where the seller agrees to repurchase the securities at a given price and usually at a stated time. Repos are widely used money market instruments that serve as an interest-bearing, short-term "parking place" for large sums of money.

Q: What types of securities does the fund invest in?

A: The fund invests exclusively in short-term securities unconditionally guaranteed by the US government (as

to payment of principal and interest) and repurchase agreements fully backed by US Treasury securities. While an investment in the fund is not insured by the FDIC or guaranteed, the securities in which the fund invests are considered to have relatively lower risk due to their government guarantee and their relatively short maturity. The guarantee relates only to the prompt payment of principal and interest and does not remove market risks if the investment is sold prior to maturity.

Over the coming months, we plan to maintain our conservative investment strategies and standards. We continue to apply a careful approach to investing on behalf of the fund and to seek competitive yields for our shareholders.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)


A. Significant Accounting Policies

Scudder U.S. Treasury Money Fund (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end, diversified management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.

The Fund offers multiple classes of shares. Shares of Class AARP are designed for members of AARP. Class S shares of the Fund are generally not available to new investors.

Investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, and certain fund-level expenses and expense reductions, if any, are borne pro rata on the basis of relative net assets by the holders of both classes of shares. All shares of the Fund have equal rights with respect to voting subject to class-specific arrangements.

The Fund's financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require the use of management estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The policies described below are followed consistently by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation. Portfolio securities are valued utilizing the amortized cost method permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act and certain conditions therein. Under this method, which does not take into account unrealized capital gains or losses on securities, an instrument is initially valued at its cost and thereafter assumes a constant accretion/amortization to maturity of any discount or premium.

Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with certain banks and broker/dealers whereby the Fund, through its custodian or sub-custodian bank, receives delivery of the underlying securities, the amount of which at the time of purchase and each subsequent business day is required to be maintained at such a level that the value is equal to at least the principal amount of the repurchase price plus accrued interest. The custodian bank holds the collateral in a separate account until the agreement matures. If the value of the securities falls below the principal amount of the repurchase agreement plus accrued interest, the financial institution deposits additional collateral by the following business day. If the financial institution either fails to deposit the required additional collateral or fails to repurchase the securities as agreed, the Fund has the right to sell the securities and recover any resulting loss from the financial institution. If the financial institution enters into bankruptcy, the Fund's claims on the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings.

Federal Income Taxes. The Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, which are applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Accordingly, the Fund paid no federal income taxes and no federal income tax provision was required.

Distribution of Income and Gains. All of the net investment income of the Fund is declared as a daily dividend and is distributed to shareholders monthly. For purposes of the daily dividend, net investment income includes all realized gains (losses) on portfolio securities.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Temporary book and tax basis differences will reverse in a subsequent period. There were no significant book-to-tax differences for the Fund.

At May 31, 2003, the Fund's components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a tax-basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income*
$ 43,560
Capital loss carryforwards
$ -

In addition, the tax character of distributions paid to shareholders by the Fund is summarized as follows:

Years Ended May 31,


2003

2002

Distributions from ordinary income
$ 2,516,485 $ 6,319,989

* For tax purposes short-term capital gains distributions are considered ordinary income distributions.

The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.

Other. Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date plus one basis. However, for financial reporting purposes, investment security transactions are reported on trade date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified cost basis. All discounts and premiums are accreted/amortized for both tax and financial reporting purposes.

B. Related Parties

Management Agreement. Under the Management Agreement, Deutsche Investment Management Americas Inc. ("DeIM" or the "Advisor"), the Advisor directs the investments of the Fund in accordance with its investment objectives, policies and restrictions. The Advisor determines the securities, instruments and other contracts relating to investments to be purchased, sold or entered into by the Fund. In addition to portfolio management services, the Advisor provides certain administrative services in accordance with the Management Agreement. The management fee payable under the Management Agreement is equal to an annual rate of 0.40% of the first $500,000,000 of the Fund's average daily net assets, 0.385% of the next $500,000,000 of such net assets and 0.37% of such net assets in excess of $1,000,000,000, computed and accrued daily and payable monthly. Accordingly, for the six months ended November 30, 2003, the fee pursuant to the Management Agreement was equivalent to an annualized effective rate of 0.40% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Administrative Fee. Under the Administrative Agreement (the "Administrative Agreement"), the Advisor provides or pays others to provide substantially all of the administrative services required by the Fund (other than those provided by the Advisor under its Management Agreement with the Fund, as described above) in exchange for the payment by each class of the Fund of an administrative services fee (the "Administrative Fee") of 0.40% of average daily net assets of each class, computed and accrued daily and payable monthly.

Various third-party service providers, some of which are affiliated with the Advisor, provide certain services to the Fund under the Administrative Agreement. Scudder Fund Accounting Corporation, a subsidiary of the Advisor, computes the net asset value for the Fund and maintains the accounting records of the Fund. Scudder Service Corporation, also a subsidiary of the Advisor, is the transfer, shareholder service and dividend-paying agent for the shares of the Fund. Scudder Trust Company, an affiliate of the Advisor, provides subaccounting and recordkeeping services for the shareholders in certain retirement and employee benefit plans. These affiliated entities have in turn entered into various agreements with third-party service providers to provide these services. In addition, other service providers not affiliated with the Advisor provide certain services (i.e., custody, legal and audit) to the Fund under the Administrative Agreement. The Advisor pays the service providers for the provision of their services to the Fund and pays other Fund expenses, including insurance, registration, printing, postage and other costs. Certain expenses of the Fund will not be borne by the Advisor under the Administrative Agreement, such as taxes, brokerage, interest and extraordinary expenses, and the fees and expenses of the Independent Trustees (including the fees and expenses of their independent counsel). For the six months ended November 30, 2003, the Administrative Fee was as follows:

Administrative Fee

$ 92,953


The Administrative Agreement between the Advisor and the Fund had been scheduled to terminate effective September 30, 2003. The Advisor and the Fund have agreed to temporarily continue the Administrative Agreement pending completion of a review by the Fund's Independent Trustees of the Fund's shareholder servicing and related arrangements. In addition, effective October 1, 2003 through September 30, 2005, the Advisor has agreed to contractually waive all or a portion of its management and/or administrative fee and reimburse or pay certain operating expenses of the Fund to the extent necessary to maintain the operating expenses of each class at 1.00% of average daily net assets (excluding certain expenses such as extraordinary expenses, taxes, brokerage, interest, Rule 12b-1 and/or service fees, trustee and trustee counsel fees).

Trustees' Fees and Expenses. The Fund pays each Trustee not affiliated with the Advisor retainer fees plus specified amounts for attended board and committee meetings.

Other Related Parties. AARP through its affiliates monitors and approves the AARP Investment Program from the Advisor. The Advisor has agreed to pay a fee to AARP and/or its affiliates in return for the use of the AARP trademark and services relating to investments by AARP members in Class AARP shares of the Fund. This fee is calculated on a daily basis as a percentage of the combined net assets of the AARP classes of all funds managed by the Advisor. The fee rates, which decrease as the aggregate net assets of the AARP classes become larger, are as follows: 0.07% of the first $6,000,000,000 of net assets, 0.06% of the next $10,000,000,000 of such net assets and 0.05% of such net assets thereafter. These amounts are used for the general purposes of AARP and its members.

C. Expense Off-Set Arrangement

The Fund has entered into an arrangement with its custodian whereby credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce a portion of the Fund's custodian expenses. During the six months ended November 30, 2003, there were no custodian credits earned.

D. Line of Credit

The Fund and several other affiliated funds (the "Participants") share in a $1.25 billion revolving credit facility administered by J.P. Morgan Chase Bank for temporary or emergency purposes, including the meeting of redemption requests that otherwise might require the untimely disposition of securities. The Participants are charged an annual commitment fee which is allocated, pro rata based upon net assets, among each of the Participants. Interest is calculated at the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5 percent. The Fund may borrow up to a maximum of 33 percent of its net assets under this agreement.

This privacy statement is issued by Deutsche Investment Management Americas Inc., Deutsche Asset Management, Inc., Scudder Distributors, Inc., Scudder Investor Services, Inc., Scudder Trust Company and the Scudder Funds.

We never sell customer lists or individual client information. We consider privacy fundamental to our client relationships and adhere to the policies and practices described below to protect current and former clients' information. Internal policies are in place to protect confidentiality, while allowing client needs to be served. Only individuals who need to do so in carrying out their job responsibilities may access client information. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards that comply with federal standards to protect confidentiality. These safeguards extend to all forms of interaction with us, including the Internet.

In the normal course of business, clients give us nonpublic personal information on applications and other forms, on our websites, and through transactions with us or our affiliates. Examples of the nonpublic personal information collected are name, address, Social Security number and transaction and balance information. To be able to serve our clients, certain of this client information is shared with affiliated and nonaffiliated third party service providers such as transfer agents, custodians, and broker-dealers to assist us in processing transactions and servicing your account with us. In addition, we may disclose all of the information we collect to companies that perform marketing services on our behalf or to other financial institutions with which we have joint marketing agreements. The organizations described above that receive client information may only use it for the purpose designated by the Scudder Companies listed above.

We may also disclose nonpublic personal information about you to other parties as required or permitted by law. For example, we are required or we may provide information to government entities or regulatory bodies in response to requests for information or subpoenas, to private litigants in certain circumstances, to law enforcement authorities, or any time we believe it necessary to protect the firm.

For AARP shareholders only: Certain investors in the AARP Investment Program are advised that limited nonpublic personal information is shared with AARP and its subsidiary AARP Services Inc. (ASI). This includes an investor's status as a current or former Program participant, name, address, and type of account maintained (i.e. IRA or non-IRA). This information must be shared so that ASI can provide quality control services, such as monitoring satisfaction with the Program. However, AARP and ASI may also use this information for other purposes such as member research, and may share this information with other AARP providers to inform members of AARP benefits and services. Shareholders residing in states with certain state specific privacy restrictions are excluded from this information sharing. All other shareholders may instruct us in writing not to share information regarding themselves or joint account holders with AARP or ASI for any purposes unrelated to the AARP Investment Program. Investors may do so by filling out and returning the enclosed "opt-out" form. With respect to accounts that are jointly held, an opt-out form received from any of the joint account holders will be applied to the entire account.
