      Although the enclosed annual reports for the American Century California
Tax-Free and Municipal Money Market funds focus primarily on the one-year period
ended August 31, 2001, we'd be remiss in failing to mention the horrifying and
unprecedented terrorist attacks on September 11. We pay tribute to the many
members of the investment community--and the brave emergency personnel who came
to their rescue--who died that day.

      The terrorists sought to devastate America, but our business
community--including your American Century investment management team--has been
working hard to keep the U.S. financial markets up, active, and functioning
smoothly. On the following pages, the management team discusses what affected
the funds during the fiscal year, and how the team is responding to the current
economic environment.

      In other news, our investment team's executive leadership recently
underwent some important changes. Effective July 1, 2001, Randall Merk, formerly
a senior vice president and chief investment officer (CIO) for American
Century's fixed-income discipline, became president and CIO of American
Century's investment management subsidiary. He succeeded Robert Puff, Jr., who
became the subsidiary's chairman. Randy is now responsible for all of American
Century's investment management functions, including portfolio management,
research, and trading.

      David MacEwen, a senior vice president who previously oversaw all of
American Century's municipal and money market portfolios and municipal credit
research, assumed Randy's role as CIO for fixed income. Dave is responsible for
portfolio management and research for all of the company's bond and money market
products. And Steven Permut, a vice president and senior portfolio and credit
research manager, was promoted to succeed Dave as leader of American Century's
municipal fund and credit research teams.

      As always, we appreciate your continued confidence in American Century,
especially during these difficult times.

Sincerely,
/s/James E. Stowers, Jr.                               /s/James E. Stowers III
James E. Stowers, Jr.                                     James E. Stowers III

Report Highlights
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CREDIT REVIEW

*   In September 2000, California was still riding the economic wave generated
    by the late '90s technology boom and the strong national economy, which
    produced a hefty state budget surplus and a credit rating upgrade.

*   By April 2001, the state's power crisis and the economic downturn had
    reduced the surplus, forcing the credit rating agencies to downgrade the
    state's general obligation debt. However, conditions remained relatively
    stable at the underlying local city and municipal levels.

*   Energy conservation, a mild summer, falling energy prices, and new power
    plants helped ease California's power crisis. But the state still must
    finance the billions of dollars it has already spent to purchase power.

*   Analysts believe California is in better financial and economic condition
    than it was just before the recession of the early 1990s.


CALIFORNIA TAX-FREE MONEY MARKET

*   The fund provided shareholders more state and federal tax-free income than
    the average California money market fund during the year ended August 31,
    2001.

*   The fund's annual return ranked in the top 20% of its Lipper peer group, and
    maintained its 10-year track record of outperforming two-thirds of the peer
    group (see page 5).

*   During the fiscal year, lower-than-average expenses helped the fund
    outperform, as did decisions to lock in attractive yields at opportune
    times.

*   Money market yields fell as the Federal Reserve cut interest rates to prop
    up the deteriorating economy.


*   The state of California postponed issuance of its power bonds, but the state
    will issue bonds for general expenses, including power purchases. That could
    be an opportunity to lock in some fairly good yields, but the fund's yield
    is likely to remain relatively low in the months ahead.

CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET

*   The fund provided shareholders more state and federal tax-free income than
    the average California money market fund during the year ended August 31,
    2001.

*   The fund improved upon its 10-year track record of performing in the top 25%
    of the peer group--its return this year ranked in the top 15% of its Lipper
    peers (see page 11).

*   Lower-than-average expenses helped the fund outperform, as did decisions to
    lock in attractive yields at opportune times during the fiscal year.

*   The Federal Reserve cut interest rates to prop up the deteriorating economy,
    pushing money market yields lower.

*   The state of California postponed issuance of its power bonds, but the state
    will issue bonds for general expenses, including power purchases. That could
    be an opportunity to lock in some fairly good yields, but the fund's yield
    is likely to remain relatively low in the months ahead.

Money Market Funds--Frequently Asked Questions
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WHEN ARE DIVIDENDS PAID?

      Dividends are paid on the last business day of the month. We hope this
makes your dividend payment date easy to remember.

CAN I MAKE DIRECT DEPOSITS INTO MY MONEY MARKET FUND ACCOUNT?

      Yes. You can arrange for direct deposit of your paycheck, Social Security
check,  military allotment, or payments from other government agencies. Visit
our Web site or give us a call to obtain the necessary information to
set it up.

WHAT IS THE HOLDING PERIOD ON NEW DEPOSITS INTO MY ACCOUNT?

      There is a seven-business-day hold on deposited funds--including your
initial investment in a new account. There is a one-business-day hold on wire
transfers.

IS THERE A COST FOR WRITING CHECKS ON MY MONEY MARKET ACCOUNT?

      As long as each check is for $100 or more, you can write as many checks as
you like at no charge.

HOW CAN I KEEP TRACK OF MY MONEY MARKET FUND TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN ACCOUNT
STATEMENTS?

      You can access your investments any time through our automated telephone
line and the American Century Web site. These services provide fund yields,
returns, account information, and transaction services.

      You can keep tabs on your investments by:

*    visiting our Web site at
      www.americancentury.com*

*    using our Automated Information Line (1-800-345-8765)*

*    calling an Investor Relations Representative at 1-800-345-2021* weekdays,
      7 a.m.-7 p.m. Central time Saturdays, 9 a.m.-2 p.m. Central time


WHY DOES MY MONEY MARKET FUND YIELD FLUCTUATE?

      Money market funds are managed to maintain a stable $1 share price, but
their yields will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. Common reasons
for changes in your fund's yield are adjustments to Federal Reserve interest
rate policy, the outlook for inflation,  and supply and demand for money market
securities.

IS MY MONEY MARKET INVESTMENT BACKED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT?

      No money market fund is guaranteed or insured by the FDIC or any other
government agency. So, although money market funds are intended to preserve the
value of your investment at $1 per share, there's no guarantee that they'll be
able to do so.

HIGHLIGHTING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE CALIFORNIA TAX-FREE AND MUNICIPAL MONEY
MARKET FUNDS

*    CALIFORNIA TAX-FREE MONEY MARKET provides interest income that's exempt
      from both federal and California state income taxes.

*    CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET has basically the same objectives as
      California Tax-Free Money Market, but  it seeks a higher yield by
      investing in securities whose interest may be subject to the federal
      alternative minimum tax (AMT).

The AMT applies primarily to corporations and high-income individuals who are
able to substantially reduce their regular tax liability with passive income,
deductions, and exemptions. Because of their potential tax liability, AMT
securities typically offer higher yields than non-AMT paper.

WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOU--California Tax-Free Money Market may be more appropriate
for investors who file under the AMT, while investors who aren't subject to the
AMT may want to consider the California Municipal Money Market fund.


* We must have your written or electronic authorization on file if you wish to
   make exchanges by phone, on our Automated Information Line, or through our
   Web site.

California Municipal Credit Review
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE GOLDEN STATE LOST SOME LUSTER

      What a difference a year made! In September 2000, California was still
riding the economic wave generated by the late '90s technology boom and the
strong national economy, which produced a hefty state budget surplus and a
credit rating upgrade (to Standard & Poor's AA). But by April 2001, the
power crisis and an economic downturn had reduced the surplus and tax receipts,
forcing the rating agencies to downgrade the state's general obligation debt (to
S&P A+). That's still an investment-grade rating, indicating a "strong
ability to meet financial obligations."

      And though the credit rating tide rose and fell at the state level,
conditions remained relatively stable at the underlying local city and municipal
levels. Drawing on lessons learned from the early 1990s recession, local
governments have been generally conservative with their budget surpluses, using
the money to replenish "rainy day" funds.

THE POWER CRISIS EASED, BUT IS STILL A THREAT

      Effective energy conservation efforts, a relatively mild summer, falling
energy prices, and the addition of new power plants helped ease California's
power crisis. The crisis faded from the headlines, creating the impression that
it might be over. That was true to a certain degree--the summer wave of rolling
blackouts never materialized. But financially, the state still must determine
how to avoid paying excessive future energy costs and how to finance the
billions of dollars it has already spent to purchase power on behalf of its
insolvent public utilities.

ECONOMY HURT BY THE TECH WRECK AND DECLINING SPENDING

      Besides the financial aftermath of the power crisis, California also had
to overcome the collapse of the technology sector and face the consequences of
the weakening national economy. Employment growth, a sign of economic vitality,
has been declining for a year (see the accompanying graph), though California
remains above the national average. The technology meltdown also reduced the
state's corporate and personal income tax receipts and cut tax revenues
generated by capital gains and exercised stock options. Tourism and foreign
trade--major drivers of the state's economy--have also waned.

      But analysts believe California as a whole is in better financial and
economic condition than it was just before the recession of the early 1990s.
We'll continue to closely monitor the impact of the power situation and the
economic slowdown, watching to see how they will affect the finances of the
state and local governments.

California Tax-Free Money Market--Q&A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[photo of Todd Pardula]

      An interview with Todd Pardula, a portfolio manager on the California
Tax-Free and Municipal Money Market funds investment team.

HOW DID CALIFORNIA TAX-FREE MONEY MARKET PERFORM FOR THE YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31,
2001?

      The fund returned 2.86%, providing more income than its Lipper peer group
on average. (See the previous page for more performance information.) Relative
to other asset classes, money markets vastly outperformed stocks, while trailing
bonds.

WHY DID THE FUND'S YIELD DECLINE DURING THE FISCAL YEAR?

      The Federal Reserve cut short-term interest rates nearly in half, from
6.5% to 3.5% to combat economic weakness. That was the most rapid rate shift in
recent history, and it pushed all money market yields sharply lower.

      Yields on California money market securities are heavily influenced by
technical factors. This year, note yields rose in mid-April as tax time reduced
demand. Yields remained attractive into June as investors anticipated additional
issuance as a result of the power crisis. Proceeds from the "power
bonds" were intended to pay for power purchases, but the bond deal was
postponed until lawmakers agree upon the terms.


HOW DID YOU OUTPACE THE LIPPER PEER GROUP?

      First off, our lower-than-average expenses helped. All else being equal,
lower expenses mean more income for our shareholders.

      We also locked in some high yields back in November just before the Fed
started cutting rates. We added to our note holdings again between April and
June when note yields were attractive relative to other types of money market
securities. Those decisions helped support the fund's return as interest rates
continued to decline further.

WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?

      Although we aren't expecting the $12.5 billion California power issuance
until next year, another large state issuance in September--$5.7 billion in
California revenue anticipation notes (RANs)--may provide a chance to lock in
attractive yields for our shareholders. This will be the first California RAN
issuance in several years, because the state's prosperity in recent years
eliminated its need to borrow annually.

      We are expecting the issuance to make yields attractive, as the state will
have to entice investors with higher-yielding notes. As always, we'll continue
to scour our market for high-quality securities with competitive yields, while
monitoring the pulse of the national and state economies.

California Municipal Money Market--Q&A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      An interview with Todd Pardula (pictured on page 6), a portfolio manager
on the California Tax-Free and Municipal Money Market funds investment team.

HOW DID CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET PERFORM FOR THE YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31,
2001?

      The fund returned 2.96%, providing more income than its Lipper peer group
on average. (See the previous page for more performance information.) Relative
to other asset classes, money markets vastly outperformed stocks, while trailing
bonds.

WHY DID THE FUND'S YIELD DECLINE DURING THE FISCAL YEAR?

      The Federal Reserve cut short-term interest rates nearly in half, from
6.5% to 3.5% to combat economic weakness. That was the most rapid rate shift in
recent history, and it pushed all money market yields sharply lower.

      Yields on California money market securities are heavily influenced by
technical factors. This year, note yields rose in mid-April as tax time reduced
demand. Yields remained attractive into June as investors anticipated additional
issuance as a result of the power crisis. Proceeds from the "power
bonds" were intended to pay for power purchases, but the bond deal was
postponed until lawmakers agree upon the terms.


HOW DID YOU OUTPACE THE LIPPER PEER GROUP?

      First off, our lower-than-average expenses helped. All else being equal,
lower expenses mean more income for our shareholders.

      We also locked in some high yields back in November just before the Fed
started cutting rates. We added to our note holdings again between April and
June when note yields were attractive relative to other types of money market
securities. Those decisions helped support the fund's return as interest rates
continued to decline further.

WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?

      Although we aren't expecting the $12.5 billion California power issuance
until next year, another large state issuance in September--$5.7 billion in
California revenue anticipation notes (RANs)--may provide a chance to lock in
attractive yields for our shareholders. This will be the first California RAN
issuance in several years, because the state's prosperity in recent years
eliminated its need to borrow annually.

      We are expecting the issuance to make yields attractive, as the state will
have to entice investors with higher-yielding notes. As always, we'll continue
to scour our market for high-quality securities with competitive yields, while
monitoring the pulse of the national and state economies.

Statement of Assets and Liabilities
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This statement breaks down the fund's ASSETS (such as  securities, cash, and
other receivables) and LIABILITIES (money owed for securities purchased,
management fees, and other payables) as of the last day of the reporting
period. Subtracting the liabilities from the assets results  in the fund's NET
ASSETS. The net assets divided by shares outstanding is the share price, or NET
ASSET VALUE PER SHARE. This statement also breaks down the fund's net assets
into capital (shareholder investments) and performance (investment income and
gains/losses).

(Municipal Money Market) (the funds) are two funds issued by the trust. Tax-Free
Money Market is diversified and Municipal Money Market is non-diversified under
the 1940 Act. The funds seek income that is exempt from federal and California
income taxes. Tax-Free Money Market and Municipal Money Market seek to obtain as
high a level of interest income as is consistent with prudent investment
management and conservation of shareholders' capital. The funds concentrate
their investments in a single state and therefore may have more exposure to
credit risk related to the state of California than a fund with a broader
geographical diversification. The following significant accounting policies are
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America. These policies may require the use of estimates by fund management.

     SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Portfolio securities are valued at amortized cost,
which approximates current market value. When valuations are not readily
available, securities are valued at fair value as determined in accordance with
procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.

     SECURITY TRANSACTIONS -- Security transactions are accounted for as of the
trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost
basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.

     INVESTMENT INCOME -- Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and
includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums.

     INCOME TAX STATUS -- It is the funds' policy to distribute all net
investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise
qualify as a regulated investment company under the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal or state
income taxes.

     WHEN ISSUED -- The funds may engage in securities transactions on a
when-issued basis. Under this arrangement, the securities' prices and yields are
fixed on the date of commitment, but payment and delivery are scheduled for a
future date. During this period, securities are subject to market fluctuations.
The fund maintains segregated accounts consisting of cash or liquid securities
in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price.

     DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Distributions from net investment income
are declared daily and distributed monthly. The funds do not expect to realize
any long-term capital gains, and accordingly, do not expect to pay any capital
gains distributions. For the year ended August 31, 2001, 100% (unaudited) of the
funds' distributions from net investment income have been designated as exempt
from federal and California state income tax.

     The character of distributions made during the year from net investment
income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for
federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character
of certain income items and net gains and losses for financial statement and tax
purposes and may result in reclassification among certain capital accounts.

     At August 31, 2001, accumulated net realized capital loss carryovers for
federal income tax purposes for Tax-Free Money Market of $271,183 (expiring in
2004 through 2008) and for Municipal Money Market of $157,293 (expiring in 2003
through 2006) may be used to offset future taxable gains.

     Tax-Free Money Market and Municipal Money Market have elected to treat $723
and $2, respectively, of net capital losses incurred in the ten month period
ended August 31, 2001, as having been incurred in the following fiscal year for
federal income tax purposes.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.  FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

     MANAGEMENT FEES -- The trust has entered into a Management Agreement with
American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM), under which ACIM provides
the funds with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a
single, unified management fee. The Agreement provides that all expenses of the
funds, except brokerage commissions, taxes, portfolio insurance, interest, fees
and expenses of those Trustees who are not considered "interested
persons" as defined in the 1940 Act (including counsel fees) and
extraordinary expenses, will be paid by ACIM. The fee is computed daily and paid
monthly. It consists of an Investment Category Fee based on the average net
assets of the funds in a specific fund's investment category and a Complex Fee
based on the average net assets of all the funds managed by ACIM. The rates for
the Investment Category Fee range from 0.1570% to 0.2700% and the rates for the
Complex Fee range from 0.2900% to 0.3100%. For the year ended August 31, 2001,
the effective annual management fee for both funds was 0.49%.

     MONEY MARKET INSURANCE -- The funds, along with other money market funds
managed by ACIM, have entered into an insurance agreement with MBIA Insurance
Corporation (MBIA). MBIA provides limited coverage for certain loss events
including issuer defaults as to payment of principal or interest and insolvency
of a credit enhancement provider. The funds pay annual premiums to MBIA on a
yearly basis, which are amortized over one year.

     RELATED PARTIES -- Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also
officers and/or directors, and, as a group, controlling stockholders of American
Century Companies, Inc., the parent of the trust's investment manager, ACIM, the
distributor of the trust, American Century Investment Services, Inc., and the
trust's transfer agent, American Century Services Corporation.

Report of Independent Accountants
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To the Trustees of the American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds
and Shareholders of the California Tax-Free Money Market Fund and the California
Municipal Money Market Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the schedules of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the California Tax-Free Money
Market Fund and the California Municipal Money Market Fund (the
"Funds") at August 31, 2001, the results of their operations for the
year then ended, the changes in net assets for each of the two years in the
period then ended and the financial highlights for the four years in the period
then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. The financial highlights for the year ended August 31,
1997, were audited by other auditors, whose report, dated October 3, 1997,
expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements. These financial statements
and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial
statements") are the responsibility of the Funds' management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America,
which 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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at August 31, 2001 by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Background Information
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY AND POLICIES

      American Century offers 38 fixed-income funds, ranging from money market
portfolios to long-term bond funds and including both taxable and tax-exempt
funds. Each is managed to provide a "pure play" on a specific sector
of the fixed-income market.

      To ensure adherence to this principle, the basic structure of each
portfolio is tied to a specific market index. Fund managers attempt to add value
by making modest portfolio adjustments based on their analysis of prevailing
market conditions.

      Investment decisions are made by management teams, which meet regularly to
discuss market analysis and investment strategies.

      In addition to these principles, each fund has its own
investment policies:

      CALIFORNIA TAX-FREE MONEY MARKET and CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET
seek to provide interest income exempt from both federal and California state
income taxes while maintaining a stable share price. The funds invest in
high-quality California municipal money market securities.

      An investment in these funds is neither insured nor guaranteed by the FDIC
or any other government agency. Yields will fluctuate, and although the funds
seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1 per share, it is possible to
lose money by investing in the funds.

LIPPER RANKINGS

      LIPPER INC. is an independent mutual fund ranking service that groups
funds according to their investment objectives. Rankings are based on average
annual returns for each fund in a given category for the periods indicated.
Rankings are not included for periods less than one year.

      The funds in Lipper's CALIFORNIA TAX-EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUNDS category
invest in high-quality California municipal obligations with dollar-weighted
average maturities of less than 90 days.

CREDIT RATING GUIDELINES

      Credit quality (the issuer's financial strength and the likelihood of
timely payment of interest and principal) is a key factor in fixed-income
investment analysis. Credit ratings issued by independent rating and research
companies such as Standard & Poor's help quantify credit quality--the
stronger the issuer, the higher the credit rating.

      A-1 (which includes A-1+) is Standard & Poor's highest credit rating
for short-term securities. Here are the most common short-term credit ratings
and their definitions:

*    A-1+: extremely strong ability to meet financial obligations.


*    A-1: strong ability to meet financial obligations.


*    A-2: satisfactory ability to meet financial obligations.


      It's important to note that credit ratings are subjective. They reflect
the opinions of the rating agencies that issue them and are not absolute
standards of quality.

Glossary
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RETURNS

*   TOTAL RETURN figures show the overall percentage change in the value of a
    hypothetical investment in the fund and assume that all of the fund's
    distributions are reinvested.

*   AVERAGE ANNUAL RETURNS illustrate the annually compounded returns that would
    have produced the fund's cumulative total returns if the fund's performance
    had been constant over the entire period. Average annual returns smooth out
    variations in a fund's return; they are not the same as fiscal year-by-year
    results. For fiscal year-by-year total returns, please refer to the
    "Financial Highlights" on pages 20-21.

YIELDS

*   7-DAY CURRENT YIELD is calculated based on the income generated by an
    investment in the fund over a seven-day period and is expressed as an annual
    percentage rate.

*   7-DAY EFFECTIVE YIELD is calculated similarly, although this figure is
    slightly higher than the fund's 7-Day Current Yield because of the effects
    of compounding. The 7-Day Effective Yield assumes that income earned from
    the fund's investments is reinvested and generating additional income.

*   7-DAY TAX-EQUIVALENT YIELDS show the taxable yields that investors in a
    combined California and federal income tax bracket would have to earn before
    taxes to equal the fund's 7-Day Current Yield.

INVESTMENT TERMS

*   BASIS POINT -- a basis point equals one one-hundredth of a percentage point
    (or 0.01%). Therefore, 100 basis points equal one percentage point (or 1%).

STATISTICAL TERMINOLOGY

*   NUMBER OF SECURITIES -- the number of securities held by a fund on a given
    date.

*   WEIGHTED AVERAGE MATURITY (WAM) -- a measure of the sensitivity of a
    fixed-income portfolio to interest rate changes. WAM indicates the average
    time until the securities in the portfolio mature, weighted by dollar
    amount. The longer the WAM, the greater the portfolio's interest rate
    sensitivity.

*   EXPENSE RATIO -- the operating expenses of the fund, expressed as a
    percentage of average net assets. Shareholders pay an annual fee to the
    investment manager for investment advisory and management services. The
    expenses and fees are deducted from fund income, not from each shareholder
    account. (See Note 2 in the Notes to Financial Statements.)

TYPES OF MUNICIPAL SECURITIES

*   AMT PAPER -- instruments with income subject to the federal alternative
    minimum tax.

*   MUNICIPAL COMMERCIAL PAPER (CP) -- high-grade short-term securities backed
    by a line of credit from a bank.

*   MUNICIPAL NOTES -- municipal securities with maturities of two years or
    less.

*   PUT BONDS -- long-term securities that can be "put back" (i.e.,
    sold at face value) to a specified buyer at a prearranged date.

*   VARIABLE-RATE NOTES -- securities that track market interest rates and
    stabilize their market values using periodic (daily or weekly) interest rate
    adjustments.

FUND CLASSIFICATIONS

     Please be aware that the fund's category may change over time. Therefore,
it is important that you read a fund's prospectus or fund profile carefully
before investing to ensure its objectives, policies, and risk potential are
consistent with your needs.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

     The investment objective may be based on the fund's objective as stated in
its prospectus or fund profile, or the fund's categorization by independent
rating organizations based on its management style.

*   CAPITAL PRESERVATION -- offers taxable and tax-free money market funds for
relative stability of principal and liquidity.

*   INCOME -- offers funds that can provide current income and competitive
yields, as well as a strong and stable foundation and generally lower
volatility levels than stock funds.

*   GROWTH & INCOME -- offers funds that emphasize both growth and income
provided by either dividend-paying equities or a combination of equity and
fixed-income securities.

*   GROWTH -- offers funds with a focus on capital appreciation and long-term
growth, generally providing high return potential with corresponding high
price-fluctuation risk.

RISK

     The classification of funds by risk category is based on quantitative
historical measures as well as qualitative prospective measures. It is not
intended to be a precise indicator of future risk or return levels. The degree
of risk within each category can vary significantly, and some fund returns have
historically been higher than more aggressive funds or lower than more
conservative funds.

*   CONSERVATIVE -- these funds generally provide lower return potential with
either low or minimal price-fluctuation risk.

*   MODERATE -- these funds generally provide moderate return potential with
moderate price-fluctuation risk.

*   AGGRESSIVE -- these funds generally provide high return potential with
corresponding high price-fluctuation risk.

The classification of funds by risk category is based on quantitative historical

each category can vary significantly, and some fund returns have historically
been higher than more aggressive funds or lower than more conservative funds.
Please be aware that a fund's category may change over time. Therefore, it is
important that you read a fund's prospectus or fund profile carefully before
investing to ensure its objectives, policies and risk potential are consistent
with your needs. For a definition of fund categories, see the Glossary.

* While listed within the Income investment objective, the Target funds do not
pay current dividend income. Income dividends are distributed once a year in
December. The Target funds are listed in all three risk categories due to the
dramatic price volatility investors may experience during certain market
conditions. If held to their target dates, however, they can offer a
conservative, dependable way to invest for a specific time horizon.

fund. These documents contain important information including charges and
expenses, and you should read them carefully before you invest or send money.

Our Message to You -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [photo of James E. Stowers, Jr. and James E. Stowers III] James E. Stowers, Jr., standing, with James E. Stowers III Although the enclosed annual reports for the American Century California High-Yield Municipal and Insured Tax-Free funds focus primarily on the one-year period ended August 31, 2001, we'd be remiss in failing to mention the horrifying and unprecedented terrorist attacks on September 11. We pay tribute to the many members of the investment community--and the brave emergency personnel who came to their rescue--who died that day. The terrorists sought to devastate America, but our business community--including your American Century investment management team--has been working hard to keep the U.S. financial markets up, active, and functioning smoothly. On the following pages, the municipal team discusses what affected the funds during the fiscal year, how they reacted, and how the team is responding to the economic and market impact of the terrorist attacks and the still unsettled California power situation. The investment team's executive leadership recently underwent some important changes. Effective July 1, 2001, Randall Merk, formerly a senior vice president and chief investment officer (CIO) for American Century's fixed-income discipline, became president and CIO of American Century's investment management subsidiary. He succeeded Robert Puff, Jr., who became the subsidiary's chairman. Randy is now responsible for all of American Century's investment management functions, including portfolio management, research, and trading. David MacEwen, a senior vice president who previously oversaw all of American Century's municipal and money market portfolios and municipal credit research, assumed Randy's role as CIO for fixed income. Dave is responsible for portfolio management and research for all of the company's bond and money market products. And Steven Permut, a vice president and senior portfolio and credit research manager, was promoted to succeed Dave as leader of American Century's municipal fund and credit research teams. As always, we appreciate your continued confidence in American Century, especially during these difficult times. Sincerely, /s/James E. Stowers, Jr. /s/James E. Stowers III James E.

A weaker-than-expected U.S. economy, a stock market sell-off, and falling interest rates generated unusually robust bond returns. Municipal bonds reaped their share of the rewards (see the table at right). Bond returns stood in stark contrast to the dramatic losses suffered by stocks. The broader stock market--represented by the S&P 500--fell more than 20%, and technology stocks--represented by the Nasdaq Composite--declined more than 50%. Those losses helped fuel demand for bonds. THE FED REACTED WITH SHARPLY LOWER RATES The U.S. economy decelerated abruptly after racing ahead in the first half of 2000. Declining business spending, soaring inventories, and recessionary conditions in the manufacturing and technology sectors brought the annualized economic growth rate down below 2% in the final two quarters of 2000 and close to 0% by the second quarter of 2001. To prevent a recession in the overall economy, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) cut short-term interest rates seven times in the first eight months of 2001, reducing its benchmark target for overnight lending rates from 6.50% to 3.50%. That was the lowest level since 1994, and the sharpest rate cut since the early 1980s. A LOWER AND STEEPER MUNICIPAL YIELD CURVE The Fed's rate cuts and favorable municipal bond supply and demand conditions pulled down municipal yields (shown below). The entire municipal yield curve (which is a graphical representation of the yields offered by municipal bonds with various maturities) shifted lower as prices rose. The curve also steepened as short-term yields--which are tied closely to Fed actions--fell more than long-term yields. Yields on long-term securities didn't decline as much, reflecting concerns that lower rates would eventually stimulate the economy and raise the specter of inflation. QUALITY MATTERED Higher-quality "investment-grade" munis (those rated BBB or higher) outperformed lower-quality "high-yield" munis (those rated BB and below), which happens often when the economy slumps and interest rates decline. This occurred for basically two reasons. First, high-yield munis generally aren't as sensitive to falling interest rates as higher-rated bonds--the additional interest income of high-yield bonds cushions the impact of changing rates. Second, worsening economic conditions tend to put more pressure on high-yield issuers and prices than their investment-grade counterparts--lower ratings typically correspond with less financial margin for error.

California Municipal Credit Review
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE GOLDEN STATE LOST SOME LUSTER

     What a difference a year made! In September 2000, California was still
riding the economic wave generated by the late '90s technology boom and the
strong national economy, which produced a hefty state budget surplus and a
credit rating upgrade (to Standard & Poor's AA). But by April 2001, the
power crisis and an economic downturn had reduced the surplus and tax receipts,
forcing the rating agencies to downgrade the state's general obligation debt (to
S&P A+). That's still an investment-grade rating, indicating a "strong
ability to meet financial obligations."

     And though the credit rating tide rose and fell at  the state level,
conditions remained relatively stable at the underlying local city and municipal
levels. Drawing on lessons learned from the early 1990s recession, local
governments have been generally conservative with their budget surpluses, using
the money to replenish "rainy day" funds.

THE POWER CRISIS EASED, BUT IS STILL A THREAT

     Effective energy conservation efforts, a relatively mild summer, falling
energy prices, and the addition of new power plants helped ease California's
power crisis. The crisis faded from the headlines, creating the impression that
it might be over. That was true to a certain degree--the summer wave of rolling
blackouts never materialized. But financially, the state still must determine
how to avoid paying excessive future energy costs and how to finance the
billions of dollars it has already spent to purchase power on behalf of its
insolvent public utilities.

ECONOMY HURT BY THE TECH WRECK AND DECLINING SPENDING

     Besides the financial aftermath of the power crisis, California also had to
overcome the collapse of the technology sector and face the consequences of the
weakening national economy. Employment growth, a sign of economic vitality, has
been declining for a year (see the accompanying graph), though California
remains above the national average. The technology meltdown also reduced the
state's corporate and personal income tax receipts and cut tax revenues
generated by capital gains and exercised stock options. Tourism and foreign
trade--major drivers of the state's economy--have also waned.

     But analysts believe California as a whole is in better financial and
economic condition than it was just before the recession of the early 1990s.
We'll continue to closely monitor the impact of the power situation and the
economic slowdown, watching to see how they will affect the finances of the
state and local governments.

California High-Yield Municipal--Q&A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[photo of Steven Permut]

     An interview with Steven Permut,  a portfolio manager on the California
High-Yield Municipal fund investment team.

HOW DID CALIFORNIA HIGH-YIELD MUNICIPAL PERFORM DURING THE YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31,
2001?

     In a year when many bond funds performed exceptionally well, California
High-Yield Municipal more than kept pace, returning 9.50%, compared with the
9.19% average total return of 107 "California Municipal Debt Funds"
tracked by Lipper Inc.*

     That's a notable achievement because many of the competitors in the fund's
Lipper group are not high-yield funds. As we discuss on page 3, investment-grade
muni funds generally have an advantage over high-yield muni funds when the
economy weakens and interest rates fall sharply.

     The fund's longer-term results also continued to compare favorably. For the
three-, five-, and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2001, the fund ranked in at
least the top 17% of its peer group (see the previous page for more performance
comparisons).

DID LOWER-THAN-AVERAGE EXPENSES BENEFIT THE FUND?

     They did. As of August 31, 2001, California High-Yield Municipal's
annualized expense ratio was 0.54%, about half the 1.07% average expenses of its
Lipper group. All else being equal, lower expenses translate into higher yields
and returns.

HOW DID THE FUND'S YIELD HOLD UP?

     It fell as the Federal Reserve slashed short-term interest rates and the
bond market rallied (see page 3), but it remained competitive with those of
other municipal funds.

     California High-Yield Municipal's  30-day SEC yield dropped from 5.26% on
August 31, 2000, to 4.81% on August 31, 2001. But that 4.81% yield remained
higher than the 3.90% average of the Lipper group and translated into an 8.78%
tax-equivalent yield for investors in the highest combined federal and state
income tax bracket.

WHAT OTHER FACTORS HELPED THE FUND'S STRONG RELATIVE PERFORMANCE?

     Security selection was very important. The past year was fraught with
challenges, including weakening economic conditions and a growing number of
defaults and downgrades among high-yield issuers. So investing wisely and
avoiding mistakes made a big difference.

     Much of the credit for the good security selection within the portfolio
goes to our municipal credit research team, whose experience and thorough
monitoring of our holdings helped us safely navigate through increasingly
difficult conditions.

CAN YOU PROVIDE SOME EXAMPLES OF HOW SECURITY SELECTION BOOSTED RETURNS?

     Sure. The fund benefited from its holdings in land-secured bonds (35% of
the portfolio at the end of the fiscal year), particularly those in regions of
the state that still enjoyed strong entry-level and mid-priced housing markets.

California High-Yield Municipal--Q&A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                    (Continued)

     We also continued to work with the credit rating agencies to secure
investment-grade credit ratings for some of our nonrated land-secured bonds,
which helped boost their prices.

     In addition, having relatively few or no bonds in the sectors that
performed poorly during the year--specifically health care and tax-exempt
industrial development bonds--also benefited the fund's performance. Health care
bonds languished for much of the year due to problems related to intensified
competition, reduced reimbursements, and rising labor costs. Industrial
development bonds slumped as corporate profits declined.

WHAT ADJUSTMENTS DID YOU MAKE FOR WEAKENING ECONOMIC CONDITIONS?

     We steadily improved the portfolio's overall credit quality, increasing the
weighting of AAA bonds from 22% as  of August 31, 2000, to 30% as of February
28, 2001, to 33% as of August 31, 2001. At the same time, we reduced our
holdings in non-rated bonds from 58% to 55% to 52%.

     The additional interest rate sensitivity of AAA bonds boosted the fund's
returns when interest rates fell. Additionally,  the AAA bonds are more liquid
(easily traded) than non-rated bonds, providing us more flexibility to buy and
sell as opportunities presented themselves.

SPEAKING OF THE FUND'S INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY, WHAT WAS YOUR APPROACH?

     As a rule, we make only modest adjustments to the fund's duration--a
measure of interest rate sensitivity--generally keeping it within a year of our
benchmark's duration. (The longer a fund's duration, the more its share price
tends to rise or fall when rates change.) Given how volatile interest rates were
during the past year, staying in this middle lane ensured that the fund wasn't
too long when rates were rising or too short when rates were falling.

WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE ECONOMY AND HIGH-YIELD MUNI BONDS?

     Economic data released since the end of August suggest that the economy was
still slowing down prior to September 11, a trend we believe will accelerate in
the months to come. While there's little doubt that the U.S. economy will
eventually rebound--especially given the amount of stimulus the Federal Reserve
has pumped into the financial system--the big question is when? For now, we're
adopting a wait-and-see attitude on the economy.

     For high-yield muni bonds, the next three to six months could be largely a
repeat of the past year. Weakening economic conditions and falling interest
rates should create favorable conditions for bonds, particularly for
investment-grade issues. But continued stock market volatility, extremely low
interest rates, and the appeal of relatively high levels of tax-free income
could also stimulate demand for high-yield muni bonds.

GIVEN THAT OUTLOOK, WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THE FUND?

     As long as economic weakness is the overriding theme, we'll remain very
selective, emphasizing investments we believe can withstand less than ideal
economic conditions. We also plan to continue to adhere to the strategies that
have aided us in the past. That means adding long-term value through our
security selection process and our ongoing credit analysis and surveillance,
while at the same time providing competitive levels of federal and state
tax-free income.

California Insured Tax-Free--Q&A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[photo of Dave MacEwen]

     An interview with Dave MacEwen, a portfolio manager on the California
Insured Tax-Free fund investment team.

HOW DID CALIFORNIA INSURED TAX-FREE PERFORM DURING THE YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31,
2001?

     It was an exceptional year for bonds and the fund. California Insured
Tax-Free returned 10.40%--its best fiscal year return since 1993--and it handily
beat the 9.61% average return of the 24 "California Insured Municipal Debt
Funds" tracked by Lipper Inc.*

     The fund's longer-term returns also compared favorably. For the three- and
five-year periods ended August 31, 2001, the fund ranked in the top 20% of its
peer group (see the previous page for more fund performance comparisons).

HOW DID CALIFORNIA INSURED TAX-FREE'S EXPENSES AND YIELD COMPARE?

     The fund's low expenses and competitive yield helped its performance
against its peers. Other things being equal, low expenses generally translate
into higher yields and returns. As of August 31, 2001, annualized fund expenses
were only 0.51%, compared with the 1.17% average charged by the fund's Lipper
peers.

     The fund also offered investors competitive levels of state and federal
tax-free income. Its 30-day SEC yield was 3.62% on August 31, 2001, compared
with the 3.64% average yield of the Lipper group. The fund's yield translated
into a 6.61% tax-equivalent yield for California investors in the highest
combined state and federal tax brackets.

WHAT WERE THE OTHER KEYS TO THE FUND'S OUTPERFORMANCE OF ITS PEERS?

     The most important factor was our "coupon barbell" strategy. Like
a barbell that's heavy on the ends and light in  the middle, the coupon barbell
refers to our light exposure to par bonds (which trade at face value) and
heavier weightings in higher-coupon premium bonds and lower-coupon discount
bonds.

     Premiums trade above face value and carry above-market interest rates. They
helped boost the fund's yield. But the real action was in discount bonds, which
trade below their face value and carry interest rates below prevailing rates.
They're much more sensitive to interest rate changes than par or premium bonds,
so they performed extremely well when the muni market rallied in November and
December of 2000 and July and August of 2001.

HOW DID NON-CALLABLE BONDS--ANOTHER FUND FOCUS--PERFORM?

     The "non-calls" performed a lot like discount bonds. Like
discounts, non-calls--which can't be redeemed by their issuers before
maturity--have extra interest rate sensitivity. That causes them to rally along
with discounts in periods of market strength.

  Class shares.

California Insured Tax-Free--Q&A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                    (Continued)

WHY WERE JULY AND AUGUST OF 2001 SUCH GOOD MONTHS FOR DISCOUNTS AND NON-CALLS IN
THE CAL MUNI MARKET?

     It was a combination of national and local factors. Nationally, economic
weakness persisted through the summer, squelching hopes for recovery and fueling
demand for bonds. Locally, pending litigation prevented the state from issuing
the billions of dollars of bonds needed to replenish the state's general fund
for its earlier power purchases. The delay of that massive bond issuance reduced
concerns that the California municipal market would be swamped with new bonds.
Furthermore, the power crisis eased somewhat, calming investors' fears.

     Against that backdrop, California muni bonds rallied strongly, and the most
interest-rate-sensitive bonds--discounts and non-calls--rallied the farthest.
They're the most interest rate sensitive because they're the least likely to be
refinanced or "called" when rates drop sharply.

     As the market rallied we began to unwind our coupon barbell position,
recognizing that the discounts had appreciated significantly and wanting  to
lock in those gains. As we sold just prior to the fiscal year end, we chose to
keep those proceeds in short-term municipal securities.

HOW DID REDUCING THE COUPON BARBELL AFFECT THE PORTFOLIO?

     Selling discounts and increasing the number of short-term securities
reduced the fund's interest rate sensitivity (duration) a bit. As a rule, we
make only modest adjustments to the portfolio's duration, generally keeping it
within a year of our benchmark's duration. (The longer a fund's duration, the
more its share price rises or falls when rates change). At the end of the
period, the fund's duration was 8.2 years, meaning its share price would rise or
fall approximately 8.2% in response to a 1% change in interest rates.

WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?

     By the end of the fund's fiscal year, no clear consensus about the
direction of the economy, interest rates, and the municipal bond market had
emerged. The tragic events of September 11, 2001, only compounded the
uncertainty. But a couple of trends have emerged. As we were preparing this
report, the Federal Reserve cut short-term interest rates two more times to
steady the global financial system and shore up consumer confidence. But we've
yet to see evidence that the rate cuts have rekindled economic growth.
Persistent economic weakness could prompt the Fed to reduce rates again before
the end of the year. A soft economy and lower interest rates should provide a
favorable backdrop for bonds.

WITH THAT OUTLOOK IN MIND, WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THE PORTFOLIO?

     We expect a relatively strong market for bonds--particularly through the
end of the year--but we'll try to use any periods of market consolidation to
invest the portfolio's short-term securities in bonds we like at attractive
prices. Beyond that, we plan to adhere to the strategies that have helped
generate our strong track record--adding value through our careful and thorough
security selection process. As always, we'll continue to rely on the expertise
and experience of our muni credit analysis team as it monitors the effects of
recent events and a weak economy on our holdings.

Statement of Assets and Liabilities
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This statement breaks down the fund's ASSETS (such as  securities, cash, and
other receivables) and LIABILITIES (money owed for securities purchased,
management fees, and other payables) as of the last day of the reporting
period. Subtracting the liabilities from the assets results  in the fund's NET
ASSETS. For each class of shares, the net assets divided by shares outstanding
is the share price, or NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE. This statement also breaks
down the fund's net assets into capital (shareholder investments) and
performance (investment income and gains/losses).

Notes to Financial Statements
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AUGUST 31, 2001

1.  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    ORGANIZATION -- American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds
(the trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940
Act) as an open-end management investment company. California High-Yield
Municipal Fund (High-Yield) and California Insured Tax-Free Fund (Insured) (the
funds) are two of the funds in a series issued by the trust. The funds are
diversified under the 1940 Act. The funds seek income that is exempt from
federal and California income taxes. High-Yield seeks to provide as high a level
of current income as is consistent with its investment policies, which permit
investment in lower-rated and unrated municipal securities. Insured seeks to
provide as high a level of current income as is consistent with safety of
principal through investment in insured California municipal securities. The
funds concentrate their investments in a single state and therefore may have
more exposure to credit risk related to the state of California than a fund with
a broader geographical diversification. The following significant accounting
policies are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. These policies may require the use of estimates by
fund management.

    MULTIPLE CLASS -- Insured is authorized to issue the Investor Class.
High-Yield is authorized to issue the following classes of shares: the Investor
Class and the C Class. The share classes differ principally in their respective
shareholder servicing and distribution expenses and arrangements. All shares of
each fund represent an equal pro rata interest in the assets of the class to
which such shares belong, and have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and
other rights and the same terms and conditions, except for class specific
expenses and exclusive rights to vote on matters affecting only individual
classes. Sale of the C Class in High-Yield had not commenced as of August 31,
2001.

    SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Portfolio securities are valued through a commercial
pricing service or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices. When
valuations are not readily available, securities are valued at fair value as
determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.

    SECURITY TRANSACTIONS -- Security transactions are accounted for as of the
trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost
basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.

    WHEN ISSUED AND FORWARD COMMITMENTS -- The funds may engage in securities
transactions on a when-issued or forward commitment basis. Under this
arrangement, the securities' prices and yields are fixed on the date of the
commitment, but payment and delivery are scheduled for a future date. During
this period, securities are subject to market fluctuations. The funds maintain
segregated accounts consisting of cash or liquid securities in an amount
sufficient to meet the purchase price.

    INVESTMENT INCOME -- Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and
includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums.

    INCOME TAX STATUS -- It is the funds' policy to distribute all net
investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise
qualify as a regulated investment company under the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal or state
income taxes.

    DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Distributions from net investment income
for the funds are declared daily and distributed monthly. Distributions from net
realized gains for the funds are declared and paid annually. For the year ended
August 31, 2001, 100% (unaudited) of the funds distribution from net investment
income have been designated as exempt from federal and California state income
tax.

    The character of distributions made during the year from net investment
income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for
federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character
of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial
statement and tax purposes and may result in reclassification among certain
capital accounts.

    At August 31, 2001, High-Yield and Insured had accumulated net realized
capital loss carryovers for federal income tax purposes of $8,072,774 (expiring
in 2008 through 2009) and $1,148,513 (expiring in 2008 through 2009),
respectively, which may be used to offset future taxable gains.

2.  FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

    MANAGEMENT FEES -- The trust has entered into a Management Agreement with
American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM), under which ACIM provides
each fund with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a
single, unified management fee. The Agreement provides that all expenses of the
funds, except brokerage commissions, taxes, portfolio insurance, interest, fees
and expenses of the Trustees who are not considered "interested
persons" as defined in the 1940 Act (including counsel fees) and
extraordinary expenses, will be paid by ACIM. The fee is computed daily and paid
monthly. It consists of an Investment Category Fee based on the average net
assets of the funds in a specific fund's investment category and a Complex Fee
based on the average net assets of all the funds managed by ACIM. The rates for
the Investment Category Fee range from 0.1925% to 0.3100% and 0.1625% to
0.2800%, for High-Yield and Insured, respectively. The rates for the Complex
Fee range from 0.2900% to 0.3100%. For the year ended August 31, 2001, the
effective annual management fee was 0.54% and 0.51% for High-Yield and Insured,
respectively.

    DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE FEES -- The Board of Directors has adopted a Master
Distribution and Individual Shareholder Services Plan (the plan) for the C
Class, pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act. The plan provides that the C
Class will pay American Century Investment Services, Inc. (ACIS) an annual
distribution fee equal to 0.50% and a service fee equal to 0.25%. The fees are
computed daily and paid monthly based on the C Class's average daily closing net
assets during the previous month. The distribution fee provides compensation for
distribution expenses incurred in connection with distributing shares of the C
Class including, but not limited to, payments to brokers, dealers, and financial
institutions that have entered into sales agreements with respect to shares of
the fund. The service fee provides compensation for individual shareholder
services rendered by broker/dealers or other independent financial
intermediaries for C Class shares. No fees were incurred for the C Class because
it had not commenced operations.

    RELATED PARTIES -- The fund has a bank line of credit agreement with J.P.
Morgan Chase & Co. J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. is an equity investor in
American Century Companies, Inc. See Note 4 for information on the bank line of
credit.

    Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or
directors, and, as a group, controlling stockholders of American Century
Companies, Inc., the parent of the trust's investment manager, ACIM, the
distributor of the trust, ACIS, and the trust's transfer agent, American Century
Services Corporation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.  INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

    Purchases of investment securities, excluding short-term investments, for
High-Yield and Insured totaled $153,787,140 and $60,615,131, respectively. Sales
of investment securities, excluding short-term investments, for High-Yield and
Insured totaled $148,705,103 and $58,489,060, respectively.

    As of August 31, 2001, accumulated net unrealized appreciation for
High-Yield and Insured was $18,513,157 and $17,905,429, respectively, which
consisted of unrealized appreciation of $19,870,368 and $17,910,569,
respectively, and unrealized depreciation of $1,357,211 and $5,140,
respectively. The aggregate cost  of investments for federal income tax purposes
was the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.  BANK LOANS

    The funds, along with certain other funds managed by ACIM, have an unsecured
$620,000,000 bank line of credit agreement with J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.
Effective December 19, 2000, the bank line of credit was renewed at
$520,000,000. The funds may borrow money for temporary or emergency purposes to
fund shareholder redemptions. Borrowings under the agreement bear interest at
the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%. The funds did not borrow from the line during
the year ended August 31, 2001.

To the Trustees of the American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds

31, 2001, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes
in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the
financial highlights for the four years in the period then ended, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The financial highlights for the year ended August 31, 1997, were audited by
other auditors, whose report, dated October 3, 1997, expressed an unqualified
opinion on those statements. These financial statements and financial highlights
(hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Funds' management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States of America, which 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August
31, 2001 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.

Share Class Information
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SHARE CLASSES

    Two classes of shares are authorized for sale by the California High-Yield
Municipal fund: Investor Class and C Class. The California Insured Tax-Free fund
offers only Investor Class shares.

    INVESTOR CLASS shareholders do not pay any commissions or other fees for
purchase of fund shares directly from American Century. Investors who buy
Investor Class shares through a broker-dealer may be required to pay the
broker-dealer a transaction fee.

    C CLASS shares are sold primarily through employer-sponsored retirement
plans or through institutions such as banks, broker-dealers, and insurance
companies. C class shares are subject to a Rule 12b-1 service and distribution
fee of 1.00% for equity funds and 0.75% for fixed income funds. 0.25% of that
fee is available to pay for individual shareholder and administrative services
and the remainder is available to pay for distribution services provided by the
financial intermediary through which the C Class shares are purchased. The total
expense ratio of the C Class share is higher than the total expense ratio of
Investor Class shares by 1.00% for equity funds and 0.75% for fixed income
funds.

    No performance data are listed for C Class shares because no C Class shares
had been sold as of August 31, 2001.

    All classes of shares represent a pro rata interest  in the funds and
generally have the same rights and preferences.

Background Information
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY AND POLICIES

     American Century offers 38 fixed-income funds, ranging from money market
portfolios to long-term bond funds and including both taxable and tax-exempt
funds. Each is managed to provide a "pure play" on a specific sector
of the fixed-income market.

     To ensure adherence to this principle, the basic structure of each
portfolio is tied to a specific market index. Fund managers attempt to add value
by making modest portfolio adjustments based on their analysis of prevailing
market conditions.

     Investment decisions are made by management teams, which meet regularly to
discuss market analysis and investment strategies.

     In addition to these principles, each fund has its own investment policies:

     CALIFORNIA HIGH-YIELD MUNICIPAL seeks to provide a high level of interest
income exempt from both federal and California state income taxes by investing
in California municipal securities. The fund typically invests a portion of its
assets in lower-quality and unrated securities, which are subject to increased
credit risk, default risk and liquidity risk. The fund is managed to maintain an
average maturity of 10 years or more.

     CALIFORNIA INSURED TAX-FREE seeks to provide a high level of interest
income exempt from both federal and California state income taxes by investing
in insured California municipal securities. The fund is managed to maintain an
average maturity of 10 years or more. Fund shares are not insured.

COMPARATIVE INDICES

     The following index is used in the report for fund performance comparisons.
It is not an investment product available for purchase.

     THE LEHMAN BROTHERS LONG-TERM MUNICIPAL BOND INDEX is composed of almost
4,000 municipal bonds with maturities greater than 22 years. The average credit
rating of the securities in the index is AA1/AA2. The average maturity of the
index is approximately 27 years.

LIPPER RANKINGS

     LIPPER INC. is an independent mutual fund ranking service that groups funds
according to their investment objectives. Rankings are based on average annual
returns for each fund in a given category for the periods indicated. Rankings
are not included for periods less than one year.

     The Lipper categories for the California High-Yield Municipal and Insured
Tax-Free funds are:

     CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL DEBT FUNDS (High-Yield Municipal) -- funds that invest
at least 65% of assets in securities that are exempt from taxation in
California.

     CALIFORNIA INSURED MUNICIPAL DEBT FUNDS (Insured Tax-Free) -- funds that
invest at least 65% of assets in securities that are exempt from taxation in
California and insured as to timely payment of interest and repayment of
principal.

CREDIT RATING GUIDELINES

    CREDIT RATINGS ARE ISSUED BY INDEPENDENT RESEARCH COMPANIES SUCH AS
STANDARD & POOR'S AND MOODY'S. THEY ARE BASED ON AN ISSUER'S FINANCIAL
STRENGTH AND ABILITY  TO PAY INTEREST AND PRINCIPAL IN A TIMELY MANNER.

    SECURITIES RATED AAA, AA, A, OR BBB ARE CONSIDERED "INVESTMENT-GRADE"
SECURITIES, MEANING THEY ARE RELATIVELY SAFE FROM DEFAULT. CALIFORNIA
HIGH-YIELD MUNICIPAL MAY INVEST MORE THAN 50% OF ITS PORTFOLIO IN SECURITIES
THAT ARE BELOW INVESTMENT GRADE OR NOT RATED. HERE ARE THE MOST COMMON CREDIT
RATINGS AND THEIR DEFINITIONS:

*   AAA--EXTREMELY STRONG ABILITY TO MEET FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS.

*   AA--VERY STRONG ABILITY TO MEET FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS.

*   A--STRONG ABILITY TO MEET FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS.

*   BBB--GOOD ABILITY TO MEET FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS.

*   BB--LESS VULNERABLE TO DEFAULT THAN OTHER LOWER-QUALITY ISSUES BUT DO  NOT
    QUITE MEET INVESTMENT-GRADE STANDARDS.

    IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT CREDIT RATINGS ARE SUBJECTIVE, REFLECTING THE
OPINIONS OF THE RATING AGENCIES; THEY ARE NOT ABSOLUTE STANDARDS OF QUALITY.

Glossary
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RETURNS

*   TOTAL RETURN figures show the overall percentage change in the value of a
hypothetical investment in the fund and assume that all of the fund's
distributions are reinvested.

*   AVERAGE ANNUAL RETURNS illustrate the annually compounded returns that would
have produced the fund's cumulative total returns if the fund's performance had
been constant over the entire period. Average annual returns smooth out
variations in a fund's return; they are not the same as fiscal year-by-year
results. For fiscal year-by-year total returns, please refer to the
"Financial Highlights" on pages 24-25.

YIELDS

*   30-DAY SEC YIELD represents net investment income earned by the fund over a
30-day period, expressed as an annual percentage rate based on the fund's share
price at the end of the 30-day period. The SEC yield should be regarded as an
estimate of the fund's rate of investment income, and it may not equal the
fund's actual income distribution rate, the income paid to a shareholder's
account, or the income reported in the fund's financial statements.

*   TAX-EQUIVALENT YIELDS show the taxable yields that investors in a combined
California and federal income tax bracket would have to earn before taxes to
equal the fund's tax-free yield.

INVESTMENT TERMS

*   BASIS POINT -- one one-hundredth of a percentage point (or 0.01%).
Therefore, 100 basis points equal one percentage point (or 1%).

*   YIELD CURVE -- a graphic representation of the relationship between maturity
and yield for fixed-income securities.

STATISTICAL TERMINOLOGY

*   NUMBER OF SECURITIES -- the number of different securities held by a fund on
a given date.

*   WEIGHTED AVERAGE MATURITY (WAM) -- a measure of the sensitivity of a
fixed-income portfolio to interest rate changes. WAM indicates the average time
until the securities in the portfolio mature, weighted by dollar amount. The
longer the WAM, the greater the portfolio's interest rate sensitivity.

*   AVERAGE DURATION -- a time-weighted average of the interest and principal
payments of the securities in a portfolio. As the duration of a portfolio
increases, so does the impact of a change in interest rates on the value of the
portfolio.

*   EXPENSE RATIO -- the operating expenses of the fund, expressed as a
percentage of average net assets. Shareholders pay an annual fee to the
investment manager for investment advisory and management services. The expenses
and fees are deducted from fund income, not from each shareholder account. (See
Note 2 in the Notes to Financial Statements.)

TYPES OF MUNICIPAL SECURITIES

*   COPS (CERTIFICATES OF PARTICIPATION)/ LEASES --securities issued to finance
public property improvements (such as city halls and police stations) and
equipment purchases. Certificates of participation are similar to long-term debt
obligations, but leases have a higher risk profile because they require annual
appropriation.

*   GO (GENERAL OBLIGATION) BONDS -- securities backed by the taxing power of
the issuer.

*   LAND-SECURED BONDS -- securities such as Mello-Roos bonds and 1915 Act bonds
that are issued to finance real estate development projects.

*   PREREFUNDED/ETM BONDS -- securities refinanced or escrowed to maturity by
the issuer because of their premium coupons (higher-than-market interest rates).
These bonds tend to have higher credit ratings because they are backed by
Treasury securities.

*   REVENUE BONDS -- securities backed by revenues from sales taxes or from a
specific project, system, or facility (such as a hospital, electric utility, or
water system).

FUND CLASSIFICATIONS

    Please be aware that the fund's category may change over time. Therefore, it
is important that you read a fund's prospectus or fund profile carefully before
investing to ensure its objectives, policies, and risk potential are consistent
with your needs.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

    The investment objective may be based on the fund's objective as stated in
its prospectus or fund profile, or the fund's categorization by independent
rating organizations based on its management style.

*   CAPITAL PRESERVATION -- offers taxable and tax-free money market funds for
relative stability of principal and liquidity.

*   INCOME -- offers funds that can provide current income and competitive
yields, as well as a strong and stable foundation and generally lower volatility
levels than stock funds.

*   GROWTH & INCOME -- offers funds that emphasize both growth and income
provided by either dividend-paying equities or a combination of equity and
fixed-income securities.

*   GROWTH -- offers funds with a focus on capital appreciation and long-term
growth, generally providing high return potential with corresponding high
price-fluctuation risk.

RISK

    The classification of funds by risk category is based on quantitative
historical measures as well as qualitative prospective measures. It is not
intended to be a precise indicator of future risk or return levels. The degree
of risk within each category can vary significantly, and some fund returns have
historically been higher than more aggressive funds or lower than more
conservative funds.

*   CONSERVATIVE -- these funds generally provide lower return potential with
either low or minimal price-fluctuation risk.

*   MODERATE -- these funds generally provide moderate return potential with
moderate price-fluctuation risk.

*   AGGRESSIVE -- these funds generally provide high return potential with
corresponding high price-fluctuation risk.

* While listed within the Income investment objective, the Target funds do not
  pay current dividend income. Income  dividends are distributed once a year in
  December. The Target funds are listed in all three risk categories due to the
  dramatic price volatility investors may experience during certain market
  conditions. If held to their target dates,  however, they can offer a
  conservative, dependable way to invest for a specific time horizon.

Our Message to You -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [photo of James E. Stowers, Jr. and James E. Stowers III] James E. Stowers, Jr., standing, with James E. Stowers III Although the enclosed annual reports for the American Century California Limited-, Intermediate-, and Long-Term Tax-Free funds focus primarily on the one-year period ended August 31, 2001, we'd be remiss in failing to mention the horrifying and unprecedented terrorist attacks on September 11. We pay tribute to the many members of the investment community--and the brave emergency personnel who came to their rescue--who died that day. The terrorists sought to devastate America, but our business community--including your American Century investment management team--has been working hard to keep the U.S. financial markets up, active, and functioning smoothly. On the following pages, the municipal team discusses what affected the funds during the fiscal year, how they reacted, and how the team is responding to the economic and market impact of the terrorist attacks and the still unsettled California power situation. The investment team's executive leadership recently underwent some important changes. Effective July 1, 2001, Randall Merk, formerly a senior vice president and chief investment officer (CIO) for American Century's fixed-income discipline, became president and CIO of American Century's investment management subsidiary. He succeeded Robert Puff, Jr., who became the subsidiary's chairman. Randy is now responsible for all of American Century's investment management functions, including portfolio management, research, and trading. David MacEwen, a senior vice president who previously oversaw all of American Century's municipal and money market portfolios and municipal credit research, assumed Randy's role as CIO for fixed income. Dave is responsible for portfolio management and research for all of the company's bond and money market products. And Steven Permut, a vice president and senior portfolio and credit research manager, was promoted to succeed Dave as leader of American Century's municipal fund and credit research teams. As always, we appreciate your continued confidence in American Century, especially during these difficult times. Sincerely, /s/James E. Stowers, Jr. /s/James E. Stowers III James E.

To prevent a recession, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) cut short-term interest rates seven times in the first eight months of 2001, reducing its overnight lending target to 3.50%. * The Fed's rate cuts and favorable municipal bond supply and demand conditions caused the municipal yield curve to shift lower. The curve also steepened as short-term yields fell more than long-term yields. * Investment-grade bonds outperformed high-yield bonds. CREDIT REVIEW * In September 2000, California was still riding the economic wave generated by the late '90s technology boom and the strong national economy, which produced a hefty state budget surplus and a credit rating upgrade. * By April 2001, the state's power crisis and the economic downturn had reduced the surplus, forcing the credit rating agencies to downgrade the state's general obligation debt. However, conditions remained relatively stable at the underlying local city and municipal levels. * Energy conservation, a mild summer, falling energy prices, and new power plants helped ease California's power crisis. But the state still must finance the billions of dollars it has already spent to purchase power. * Analysts believe California is in better financial and economic condition than it was just before the recession of the early 1990s. CALIFORNIA LIMITED-TERM TAX-FREE * California Limited-Term Tax-Free turned in another solid performance, both in absolute terms and compared with its peers (see page 5). * We made some good strategic decisions in three main areas: the fund's interest rate sensitivity, the bond maturities emphasized in the portfolio, and security selection. * We plan to keep the fund highly concentrated in high-credit-quality bonds for now, which should outperform in the current environment. CALIFORNIA INTERMEDIATE-TERM TAX-FREE * California Intermediate-Term Tax-Free provided an attractive return that kept pace with its Lipper group (see page 12). * We enhanced returns with our interest rate strategies, security selection, and the portfolio's bond coupon and maturity structure. * Near-term economic weakness and lower rates seem likely for now, so we've positioned the fund accordingly. CALIFORNIA LONG-TERM TAX-FREE * The fund posted its best fiscal year return since 1993 and kept ahead of much of the competition (see page 20). * Our "coupon barbell" strategy paid off when the municipal bond market rallied. The coupon barbell features a light exposure to par bonds and heavier weightings in premium and discount bonds (see page 21). * We continued to focus on credit quality, with 60% of the portfolio invested in AAA bonds.

A weaker-than-expected U.S. economy, a stock market sell-off, and falling interest rates generated unusually robust bond returns. Municipal bonds reaped their share of the rewards (see the table at right). Bond returns stood in stark contrast to the dramatic losses suffered by stocks. The broader stock market--represented by the S&P 500--fell more than 20%, and technology stocks--represented by the Nasdaq Composite--declined more than 50%. Those losses helped fuel demand for bonds. THE FED REACTED WITH SHARPLY LOWER RATES The U.S. economy decelerated abruptly after racing ahead in the first half of 2000. Declining business spending, soaring inventories, and recessionary conditions in the manufacturing and technology sectors brought the annualized economic growth rate down below 2% in the final two quarters of 2000 and close to 0% by the second quarter of 2001. To prevent a recession in the overall economy, the Federal Reserve (the Fed) cut short-term interest rates seven times in the first eight months of 2001, reducing its benchmark target for overnight lending rates from 6.50% to 3.50%. That was the lowest level since 1994, and the sharpest rate cut since the early 1980s. A LOWER AND STEEPER MUNICIPAL YIELD CURVE The Fed's rate cuts and favorable municipal bond supply and demand conditions pulled down municipal yields (shown below). The entire municipal yield curve (which is a graphical representation of the yields offered by municipal bonds with various maturities) shifted lower as prices rose. The curve also steepened as short-term yields--which are tied closely to Fed actions--fell more than long-term yields. Yields on long-term securities didn't decline as much, reflecting concerns that lower rates would eventually stimulate the economy and raise the specter of inflation. QUALITY MATTERED Higher-quality "investment-grade" munis (those rated BBB or higher) outperformed lower-quality "high-yield" munis (those rated BB and below), which happens often when the economy slumps and interest rates decline. This occurred for basically two reasons. First, high-yield munis generally aren't as sensitive to falling interest rates as higher-rated bonds--the additional interest income of high-yield bonds cushions the impact of changing rates. Second, worsening economic conditions tend to put more pressure on high-yield issuers and prices than their investment-grade counterparts--lower ratings typically correspond with less financial margin for error.

California Municipal Credit Review
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE GOLDEN STATE LOST SOME LUSTER

     What a difference a year made! In September 2000, California was still
riding the economic wave generated by the late '90s technology boom and the
strong national economy, which produced a hefty state budget surplus and a
credit rating upgrade (to Standard & Poor's AA). But by April 2001, the
power crisis and an economic downturn had reduced the surplus and tax receipts,
forcing the rating agencies to downgrade the state's general obligation debt (to
S&P A+). That's still an investment-grade rating, indicating a "strong
ability to meet financial obligations."

     And though the credit rating tide rose and fell at  the state level,
conditions remained relatively stable at the underlying local city and municipal
levels. Drawing on lessons learned from the early 1990s recession, local
governments have been generally conservative with their budget surpluses, using
the money to replenish "rainy day" funds.

THE POWER CRISIS EASED, BUT IS STILL A THREAT

     Effective energy conservation efforts, a relatively mild summer, falling
energy prices, and the addition of new power plants helped ease California's
power crisis. The crisis faded from the headlines, creating the impression that
it might be over. That was true to a certain degree--the summer wave of rolling
blackouts never materialized. But financially, the state still must determine
how to avoid paying excessive future energy costs and how to finance the
billions of dollars it has already spent to purchase power on behalf of its
insolvent public utilities.

ECONOMY HURT BY THE TECH WRECK AND DECLINING SPENDING

     Besides the financial aftermath of the power crisis, California also had to
overcome the collapse of the technology sector and face the consequences of the
weakening national economy. Employment growth, a sign of economic vitality, has
been declining for a year (see the accompanying graph), though California
remains above the national average. The technology meltdown also reduced the
state's corporate and personal income tax receipts and cut tax revenues
generated by capital gains and exercised stock options. Tourism and foreign
trade--major drivers of the state's economy--have also waned.

     But analysts believe California as a whole is in better financial and
economic condition than it was just before the recession of the early 1990s.
We'll continue to closely monitor the impact of the power situation and the
economic slowdown, watching to see how they will affect the finances of the
state and local governments.

California Limited-Term Tax-Free--Q&A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[photo of Kenneth Salinger]

     An interview with Kenneth Salinger, a portfolio manager on the California
Limited-Term Tax-Free fund investment team.

HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM DURING THE YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31, 2001?

     California Limited-Term Tax-Free turned in another solid performance. The
fund returned 6.94%, compared with the 6.54% average return of the 11
"California Short-Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds" tracked by Lipper
Inc. California Limited-Term Tax-Free ranked among the top 30% of its peer group
based on those returns. (See the previous page for other performance
information.)

     Longer-term performance proved even more impressive. For the three- and
five-year periods ended August 31, California Limited-Term Tax-Free ranked #1
among its Lipper peers.

WHAT FUELED CALIFORNIA LIMITED-TERM  TAX-FREE'S ONGOING SUCCESS?

     For starters, we made some good strategic decisions. We focused on three
main areas: duration, structure, and individual security selection. Duration
refers to a fund's sensitivity to interest rate changes, and structure refers to
the bond coupons and maturities emphasized in the portfolio. The strategies we
followed in each of those key areas worked well as the market rallied.

     Low expenses and a high yield compared with the Lipper average also boosted
performance. As of August 31, annual fees were only 51 basis points (0.51%).
That compared favorably with the average expenses of the Lipper group, which
totaled 71 basis points at period-end. The fund's 30-day SEC yield also stacked
up well compared with the peer average. Everything else being equal, lower
expenses generally translate into a higher yield and better relative
performance.

CAN YOU ELABORATE ON YOUR DURATION STRATEGIES?

     We kept California Limited-Term  Tax-Free's duration longer than that of
its peer group average during most of the last six months. That translated into
a duration of about 3.4 years at the end of February, a position that we
generally maintained until around August. The longer duration boosted
performance when rates fell by helping the portfolio capture more gains than a
shorter duration would have provided.

     Please keep in mind, however, that we always make such adjustments
conservatively. So even though the fund's duration was long, it was never more
than about 10% above the peer average.

HOW DID YOUR BOND COUPON AND MATURITY CHOICES FACTOR IN?

     We structured the portfolio to benefit significantly from the bond rally.
To accomplish that objective, we concentrated the portfolio in securities
maturing inside of three years, and in ones maturing in six to eight years. Both
maturity ranges benefited from several factors, including a surge in demand from
investors and interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve (the Fed).

California Limited-Term Tax-Free--Q&A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                    (Continued)

CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THE TYPES OF SECURITIES YOU FAVORED?

     First, we have maintained California Limited-Term Tax-Free's high credit
quality so far this year. (See the Portfolio Composition by Credit Rating table
at right.) Simply put, high-credit-quality securities tend to be easier to buy
and sell during times of slow economic growth.

     We also focused on bonds that we felt would stand up best in a slowing
economy. That meant favoring securities backed by revenues from essential
services. Prime examples include water and sewer bonds. Even with growth
slowing, Californians still need such services. The revenues supporting these
securities tend to be far less sensitive to challenging economic times such as
these.

WHILE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT CHALLENGING TIMES, CAN YOU DISCUSS THE IMPACT OF THE
SEPTEMBER 11 TRAGEDIES ON THE ECONOMY, BOND MARKET, AND ON YOUR FUND STRATEGIES?

     Prior to the attacks, the U.S. economy was beginning to show signs that a
recovery might not be far off. But the tragedies substantially eroded consumer
confidence, and investors have become increasingly uncertain about the economic
future. Consumer spending accounts for a substantial portion of our economy and
has been one of the few remaining areas of relative support. So the drop in
confidence doesn't bode well for growth.

     Bonds generally perform well during times of economic uncertainty. But the
sheer magnitude of the situation led to a sell-off in intermediate- and
long-term U.S. Treasury securities as investors poured into short-term Treasurys
and cash. Though far less impacted in that regard than the Treasury market, the
municipal bond market endured smaller but similar pains before stabilizing.

     With regard to how we manage the fund, however, nothing really changed.
We're aiming for performance over the long haul. That means sticking to the same
basic investment strategies that helped the fund continue to perform well during
the last year.

WHAT DO YOU SEE IN STORE FOR THE ECONOMY AND RATES GOING FORWARD?

     Economic weakness and lower rates seem likely for now. Along those lines,
the Fed reduced interest rates for an eighth time this year on September 17. And
given that the recent tragedies could have far-reaching repercussions that can't
be fully accounted for at this point, the Fed could reduce rates further still.

     With that said, however, the Fed's actions to support the financial
system--combined with steps the government is taking to restore confidence--make
a strong case for an economic rebound at some point. And historically speaking,
U.S. financial markets often rebound fairly quickly, even in the face of
adversity.

GIVEN THOSE PERSPECTIVES, HOW IS THE PORTFOLIO POSITIONED AND WHAT ARE YOUR
NEAR-TERM PLANS?

     We reduced duration, bringing it closer to that of our peer average by the
end of August--down to around 3.2 years. We expect to keep duration around that
range for now, while maintaining a barbell bond maturity structure.

     We also plan to keep the fund highly concentrated in top-rated bonds, which
should outperform in the current environment. And as always, we'll work closely
with our seasoned credit research team to monitor developing credit trends,
particularly as they relate to the recent tragedies.

California Intermediate-Term Tax-Free--Q&A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[photo of Robert Miller]

     An interview with Robert Miller, a portfolio manager on the California
Intermediate-Term Tax-Free fund investment team.

HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM FOR THE YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31, 2001?

     California Intermediate-Term Tax-Free returned 8.22%, just surpassing the
8.19% average return of the 32 "California Intermediate Municipal Debt
Funds" tracked by Lipper Inc. (See the previous page for other performance
information.)

WHAT FUELED CALIFORNIA INTERMEDIATE-TERM TAX-FREE'S PERFORMANCE?

     As always, we managed the fund with maximum returns, limited risk, and a
relatively high tax-free yield in mind. We focused on three main areas to
accomplish those objectives: duration, structure, and individual security
selection.

     Low expenses relative to the Lipper group also remained a positive
influence. Everything else being equal, lower expenses generally translate into
a higher yield and better performance.

YOU MENTIONED DURATION AS A KEY FOCUS. WHAT IS DURATION AND WHAT STRATEGIES DID
YOU EMPLOY?

     Duration gauges how a fund's net asset value will react when interest rates
change. Generally, the longer a fund's duration, the more its share price
fluctuates when rates move, and vice versa.

     During most of the last six months, the fund's duration was about the same
to slightly long compared with the average duration of the Lipper group. That
translated into a duration of around 5.5 years in early March. The occasionally
long duration boosted performance as rates fell by helping the portfolio capture
more gains than a shorter duration would have provided.

WHAT STRATEGIES DETRACTED FROM PERFORMANCE?

     The portfolio's bond coupon and maturity structure weighed heavily on
performance back in January. That really tells the story behind the fund's
middle-of-the-pack finish for the one-year period compared with the Lipper
group.

CAN YOU ELOBORATE ON YOUR LAST POINT?

     Bond funds are comprised of a bunch of individual securities with different
coupon yields and scheduled maturities. For example, if a fund is heavily
concentrated in short- and long-term bonds, while underweighted in
intermediate-term ones, that's known as a barbell. Such a structure tends to
perform best when long-term rates fall more than short-term rates, or when
short-term rates rise more than long-term rates. That's the structure we
maintained during most of 2001.

     Overall, the barbell has performed reasonably well this year. But the
Federal Reserve's (the Fed's) surprise rate cut in early January sent short- and
intermediate-term bond yields sharply lower, while long-term bond yields changed
very little. So although the portfolio's short-term bonds benefited, the
underweight in intermediate-term bonds hurt performance. We've been steadily
gaining ground since January.

California Intermediate-Term Tax-Free--Q&A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                    (Continued)

CAN YOU TALK ABOUT YOUR SECURITY SELECTION?

     We generally focused on bonds that we felt would stand up best in a slowing
economy. Along those lines, we favored bonds backed by revenues from essential
services. Prime examples include water and sewer bonds. Even with growth
slowing, Californians still need such services. The revenues supporting these
bonds tend to be far less sensitive to challenging economic times such  as
these.

     We also maintained California Intermediate-Term Tax-Free's high credit
quality throughout 2001. (See the Portfolio Composition by Credit Rating table
at left.) With economic growth slowing across the nation, and California
continuing to face electric utilities challenges, high-credit-quality bonds
remained  in greater demand than lower-rated securities.

WHILE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT CHALLENGES, CAN YOU DISCUSS THE IMPACT OF THE
SEPTEMBER 11 TRAGEDIES ON THE ECONOMY, BOND MARKET, AND ON YOUR FUND STRATEGIES?

     Prior to the attacks, the U.S. economy was beginning to show signs that a
recovery might not be far off. But the tragedies substantially eroded consumer
confidence, and investors have become increasingly uncertain about the economic
future. Consumer spending accounts for a substantial portion of our economy and
has been one of the few remaining areas of relative support. So the drop in
confidence doesn't bode well for growth.

     Bonds generally perform well during times of economic uncertainty. But the
sheer magnitude of the situation led to a sell-off in intermediate- and
long-term U.S. Treasury securities as investors poured into short-term Treasurys
and cash. Though far less impacted in that regard than the Treasury market, the
municipal bond market endured smaller but similar pains before stabilizing.

     With regard to how we manage the fund, however, nothing really changed.
We're aiming for performance over the long haul. That means sticking to the same
basic investment strategies that helped the fund hold its own during the last
year.

BUILDING ON THOSE POINTS, WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE ECONOMY AND INTEREST
RATES?

     Economic weakness and lower rates seem likely for now. Along those lines,
the Fed reduced interest rates for an eighth time this year on September 17. And
given that the recent tragedies could have far-reaching repercussions that can't
be fully accounted for at this point, the Fed could reduce rates further still.

     With that said, however, the Fed's actions to support the U.S. financial
system--combined with steps the government is taking to restore confidence--make
a strong case for an economic rebound at some point.

WITH THOSE THOUGHTS IN MIND, WHAT ARE YOUR NEAR-TERM PLANS FOR THE PORTFOLIO?

     We're likely to stay the course for now. We took some of our chips off the
table in August, reducing duration to close to that of the peer average. And as
always, we will also continue to work with our seasoned municipal credit
research team to monitor developing credit trends.

California Long-Term Tax-Free--Q&A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[photo of Dave MacEwen]

     An interview with Dave MacEwen, a portfolio manager on the California
Long-Term Tax-Free fund investment team.

HOW DID CALIFORNIA LONG-TERM TAX-FREE PERFORM DURING THE YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31,
2001?

     It was an exceptional year for bond performance (see page 3). The fund
posted its best fiscal year return since 1993 and kept ahead of much of the
competition. California Long-Term Tax-Free returned 10.55%, beating the 9.19%
average return of the 107 "California Municipal Debt Funds" tracked by
Lipper Inc.

     The fund's longer-term results also compared favorably. For the three-,
five-, and 10-year periods ended August 31, 2001, the fund ranked in at least
the top 20% of its peer group (see the previous page for more fund performance
comparisons).

HOW DID THE FUND'S EXPENSES AND YIELD COMPARE?

     California Long-Term Tax-Free's relatively low expenses and high yield
contributed to its outperformance. As of August 31, 2001, the fund's annualized
expense ratio was 0.51%, less than half the 1.07% average expenses charged by
its Lipper group.

     The fund also offered investors more federal and state tax-free income than
the Lipper average. California Long-Term Tax-Free's 30-day SEC yield was 3.96%
on August 31, 2001, compared with the 3.90% Lipper average. The fund's yield
translated into a 7.23% tax-equivalent yield for investors in the highest
combined federal and state income tax bracket (see table at right).

WHAT OTHER FACTORS HELPED THE FUND'S STRONG RELATIVE PERFORMANCE?

     Our "coupon barbell" strategy paid off again, especially when the
municipal bond market rallied strongly during the last two months of 2000 and in
July and August of 2001. Like a barbell that's heavy on the ends and light in
the middle, the coupon barbell refers to  our light exposure to par bonds
(which trade at face value) and heavier weightings in higher-coupon premium
bonds and lower-coupon discount bonds.

     Premiums trade above face value and carry above-market interest rates. They
helped boost the fund's yield. Discount bonds trade below their face value and
carry interest rates below prevailing rates. They're sensitive to interest rate
changes, so they performed particularly well during municipal market rallies.

     Non-callable bonds, another area of focus for the fund, helped in much the
same way that discounts did. Non-callable bonds--which can't be redeemed by
their issuers prior to maturity--also have heightened interest rate sensitivity,
which means they performed well when the discounts did.

HOW ELSE DID THE COUPON BARBELL AFFECT FUND PERFORMANCE?

     We actually underperformed the Lipper average during the first half of 2001
as long-term interest rates remained stubbornly high, causing our discount
holdings to lag. But we stuck with the trade, and our discount holdings rallied
in July and August, when long-term California municipal bond yields fell.

California Long-Term Tax-Free--Q&A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                    (Continued)

     Three factors spurred discounts' recent strong performance. First, as signs
of economic weakness persisted through the summer, investors lost faith in a
quick rebound, causing stocks to stumble and bonds to rally. The other two
factors were specific to California. First, due to litigation, the state could
not issue billions of dollars of bonds to repay the state for its power
purchases, removing--at least temporarily--the threat that the California
municipal market would be swamped with new bonds. Furthermore, the power crisis
eased (see page 4), helping to calm investors' fears.

DID YOU DO ANYTHING TO ALTER THE FUND'S INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY?

     We made some modest adjustments. Recognizing that our "deep"
discount bonds--those with the lowest coupons and greatest interest rate
sensitivity--had appreciated handsomely this summer, we sold some to lock in
their gains. And given the strong market conditions at the time, we chose to
keep the proceeds from those sales in short-term municipal securities rather
than reinvesting in expensive bonds. Those choices also reduced the fund's
interest-rate sensitivity (duration).

DID YOU MODIFY YOUR STRATEGY IN ANTICIPATION OF WEAKENING ECONOMIC CONDITIONS?

     We continued to focus on the fund's credit quality. As of August 31, 2001,
the portfolio's average credit quality was AA, with 60% invested in AAA bonds
and 57% in insured bonds. Lower-quality bonds just didn't offer enough
additional yield to make them attractive in this environment.

WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE ECONOMY, INTEREST RATES, AND THE MUNICIPAL BOND
MARKET?

     Given the scope and unprecedented nature of the tragic events of September
11, 2001, and the uncertainty they've caused, forecasting is basically
futile--no one knows for sure what may happen.

     It is clear, though, that consumer confidence has been shaken, virtually
eliminating the possibility of an economic rebound later this year. In an effort
to reassure consumers and businesses alike, the Federal Reserve cut short-term
interest rates for the eighth time this year on September 17--as we were working
on this report--and will likely do so again before the year is over. Lower
interest rates and continued economic weakness should provide a favorable
backdrop for bonds.

GIVEN THAT OUTLOOK, WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THE FUND?

     In some regards, California is no different than the rest of the
nation--its economy will likely decline further as the national economy slows,
which may cause problems for lower-quality municipal bond issuers across the
state. That's why we plan to continue to emphasize high-quality bonds. We'll
continue to work closely with our team of muni credit analysts to monitor the
effects of recent events on our holdings. We also plan to use periods of market
weakness to identify bargains among high-quality securities.

Statement of Assets and Liabilities
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This statement breaks down the fund's ASSETS (such as  securities, cash, and
other receivables) and LIABILITIES (money owed for securities purchased,
management fees, and other payables) as of the last day of the reporting
period. Subtracting the liabilities from the assets results  in the fund's NET
ASSETS. The net assets divided by shares outstanding is the share price, or NET
ASSET VALUE PER SHARE. This statement also breaks down the fund's net assets
into capital (shareholder investments) and performance (investment income and
gains/losses).

Notes to Financial Statements
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AUGUST 31, 2001

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.  ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    ORGANIZATION -- American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds
(the trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940
Act) as an open-end management investment company. California Limited-Term
Tax-Free Fund (Limited-Term), California Intermediate-Term Tax-Free Fund
(Intermediate-Term), and California Long-Term Tax-Free Fund (Long-Term) (the
funds) are three of the funds in a series issued by the trust. The funds are
diversified under the 1940 Act. The funds seek to obtain as high a level of
interest income exempt from federal and California income taxes as is consistent
with prudent investment management and conservation of shareholders' capital.
The funds invest primarily in municipal obligations with maturities based on
each fund's investment objective. The funds concentrate their investments in a
single state and therefore may have more exposure to credit risk related to the
state of California than a fund with a broader geographical diversification. The
following significant accounting policies are in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These policies
may require the use of estimates by fund management.

    SECURITY VALUATIONS -- Portfolio securities are valued through a commercial
pricing service or at the mean of the most recent bid and asked prices. When
valuations are not readily available, securities are valued at fair value as
determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.

    SECURITY TRANSACTIONS -- Security transactions are accounted for as of the
trade date. Net realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost
basis, which is also used for federal income tax purposes.

    INVESTMENT INCOME -- Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and
includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums.

    WHEN-ISSUED AND FORWARD COMMITMENTS -- The funds may engage in securities
transactions on a when-issued or forward commitment basis. Under these
arrangements, the securities' prices and yields are fixed on the date of the
commitment, but payment and delivery are scheduled for a future date. During
this period, securities are subject to market fluctuations. The funds maintain
segregated accounts consisting of cash or liquid securities in an amount
sufficient to meet the purchase price.

    INCOME TAX STATUS -- It is the funds' policy to distribute all net
investment income and net realized gains to shareholders and to otherwise
qualify as a regulated investment company under the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal or state
income taxes.

    DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Distributions from net investment income
for the funds are declared daily and distributed monthly. Distributions from net
realized gains for the funds are declared and paid annually. For the year ended
August 31, 2001, 100% (unaudited) of the funds' distributions from net
investment income have been designated as exempt from federal and California
state income tax.

    The character of distributions made during the year from net investment
income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for
federal income tax purposes. These differences reflect the differing character
of certain income items and net realized gains and losses for financial
statement and tax purposes and may result in reclassification among certain
capital accounts.

    At August 31, 2001, Long-Term had accumulated net realized capital loss
carryovers for federal income tax purposes of $3,327,961 (expiring in 2008
through 2009), which may be used to offset future taxable gains.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.  FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

    MANAGEMENT FEES -- The trust has entered into a Management Agreement with
American Century Investment Management, Inc. (ACIM), under which ACIM provides
each fund with investment advisory and management services in exchange for a
single, unified management fee. The Agreement provides that all expenses of the
funds, except brokerage commissions, taxes, portfolio insurance, interest, fees
and expenses of the trustees who are not considered "interested
persons" as defined in the 1940 Act (including counsel fees) and
extraordinary expenses, will be paid by ACIM. The fee  is computed daily and
paid monthly. It consists of an Investment Category Fee based on the average net
assets of the funds in a specific fund's investment category and a Complex Fee
based on the average net assets of all the funds managed by ACIM. The rates for
the Investment Category Fee range from 0.1625% to 0.2800% and the rates for the
Complex Fee range from 0.2900% to 0.3100%. For the year ended August 31, 2001,
the effective annual management fee was 0.51%, for Limited-Term,
Intermediate-Term, and Long-Term.

    RELATED PARTIES -- The funds have a bank line of credit agreement with J.P.
Morgan Chase & Co. J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. is an equity investor in
American Century Companies, Inc. See Note 4 for information on the bank line of
credit.

    Certain officers and trustees of the trust are also officers and/or
directors, and, as a group, controlling stockholders of American Century
Companies, Inc., the parent of the trust's investment manager, ACIM, the
distributor of the trust, American Century Investment Services, Inc., and the
trust's transfer agent, American Century Services Corporation.

4.  BANK LOANS

    The funds, along with certain other funds managed by ACIM, have an unsecured
$620,000,000 bank line of credit agreement with J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.
Effective December 19, 2000, the bank line of credit was renewed at
$520,000,000. The funds may borrow money for temporary or emergency purposes to
fund shareholder redemptions. Borrowings under the agreement bear interest at
the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%. The funds did not borrow from the line during
the year ended August 31, 2001.

Report of Independent Accountants
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To the Trustees of the American Century California Tax-Free and Municipal Funds
and  Shareholders of the California Limited-Term Tax-Free Fund, the California
Intermediate-Term  Tax-Free Fund and the California Long-Term Tax-Free Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the schedules of investments,  and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the California Limited-Term
Tax-Free Fund, the California Intermediate-Term Tax-Free Fund and the California
Long-Term Tax-Free Fund (the "Funds") at August 31, 2001, the results
of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in net assets for each
of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for the
four years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial highlights for
the year ended August 31, 1997, were audited by other auditors, whose report,
dated October 3, 1997, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.
These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as
"financial statements") are the responsibility of the Funds'
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial
statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States of America, which 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, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2001 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.

Background Information
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY AND POLICIES

     American Century offers 38 fixed-income funds, ranging from money market
portfolios to long-term bond funds and including both taxable and tax-exempt
funds. Each is managed to provide a "pure play" on a specific sector
of the fixed-income market.

     To ensure adherence to this principle, the basic structure of each
portfolio is tied to a specific market index. Fund managers attempt to add value
by making modest portfolio adjustments based on their analysis of prevailing
market conditions.

     Investment decisions are made by management teams, which meet regularly to
discuss market analysis and investment strategies.

     In addition to these principles, each fund has its own investment policies:

     CALIFORNIA LIMITED-TERM TAX-FREE seeks interest income exempt from both
federal and California state income taxes. The fund invests primarily in
California municipal securities and maintains a weighted average maturity of
five years or less.

     CALIFORNIA INTERMEDIATE-TERM TAX-FREE seeks interest income exempt from
both federal and California state income taxes. The fund invests primarily in
California municipal securities and maintains a weighted average maturity of
5-10 years.

     CALIFORNIA LONG-TERM TAX-FREE seeks interest income exempt from federal and
California state income taxes. The fund invests primarily in California
municipal securities and maintains a weighted average maturity of 10 years or
more.

COMPARATIVE INDICES

     The following indices are used in the report for fund performance
comparisons. They are not investment products available for purchase.

     The LEHMAN BROTHERS 3-YEAR MUNICIPAL BOND INDEX is composed of more than
4,000 municipal bonds with maturities of 2-4 years. The average credit rating of
the securities in the index is AA1/AA2. The index's average maturity is 3 years

     The LEHMAN BROTHERS 5-YEAR GENERAL OBLIGATION (GO) INDEX is composed of
more than 5,000 municipal bonds with maturities of 4-6 years. The average credit
rating of the securities in the index is AA1/AA2. The index's average maturity
is approximately 5 years.

     The LEHMAN BROTHERS LONG-TERM MUNICIPAL BOND INDEX is composed of almost
4,000 municipal bonds with maturities greater than 22 years. The average credit
rating of the securities in the index is AA1/AA2. The index's average maturity
is approximately 27 years.

LIPPER RANKINGS

     LIPPER INC. is an independent mutual fund ranking service that groups funds
according to their investment objectives. Rankings are based on average annual
returns for each fund in a given category for the periods indicated. Rankings
are not included for periods less than one year.

     CALIFORNIA SHORT-INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPAL DEBT FUNDS (Limited-Term Tax-Free)
-- funds that invest at least 65% of assets in municipal debt issues that are
exempt from taxation in California with dollar-weighted average maturities of
1-5 years.

     CALIFORNIA INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPAL DEBT FUNDS (Intermediate-Term Tax-Free)
-- funds that invest at least 65% of assets in municipal debt issues that are
exempt from taxation in California with dollar-weighted average maturities of
5-10 years.

     CALIFORNIA MUNICIPAL DEBT FUNDS (Long-Term Tax-Free) -- funds that invest
at least 65% of assets in municipal debt issues that are exempt from taxation in
California.

CREDIT RATING GUIDELINES

     CREDIT RATINGS ARE ISSUED BY INDEPENDENT RESEARCH COMPANIES SUCH AS
STANDARD & POOR'S AND MOODY'S. THEY ARE BASED ON AN ISSUER'S FINANCIAL
STRENGTH AND ABILITY  TO PAY INTEREST AND PRINCIPAL IN A TIMELY MANNER.

     SECURITIES RATED AAA, AA, A, OR BBB ARE CONSIDERED "INVESTMENT-
GRADE" SECURITIES, MEANING THEY ARE RELATIVELY SAFE FROM DEFAULT. HERE ARE
THE MOST COMMON CREDIT RATINGS AND THEIR DEFINITIONS:

*    AAA--EXTREMELY STRONG ABILITY TO MEET FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS.

*    AA--VERY STRONG ABILITY TO MEET FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS.

*    A--STRONG ABILITY TO MEET FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS.

*    BBB--GOOD ABILITY TO MEET FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS.

     IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT CREDIT RATINGS ARE SUBJECTIVE, REFLECTING THE
OPINIONS OF THE RATING AGENCIES; THEY ARE NOT ABSOLUTE STANDARDS OF QUALITY.

Glossary
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RETURNS

*   TOTAL RETURN figures show the overall percentage change in the value of a
hypothetical investment in the fund and assume that all of the fund's
distributions are reinvested.

*   AVERAGE ANNUAL RETURNS illustrate the annually compounded returns that would
have produced the fund's cumulative total returns if the fund's performance had
been constant over the entire period. Average annual returns smooth out
variations in a fund's return; they are not the same as fiscal year-by-year
results. For fiscal year-by-year total returns, please refer to the
"Financial Highlights" on pages 32-34.

YIELDS

*   30-DAY SEC YIELD represents net investment income earned by the fund over a
30-day period, expressed as an annual percentage rate based on the fund's share
price at the end of the 30-day period. The SEC yield should be regarded as an
estimate of the fund's rate of investment income, and it may not equal the
fund's actual income distribution rate, the income paid to a shareholder's
account, or the income reported in the fund's financial statements.

*   TAX-EQUIVALENT YIELDS show the taxable yields that investors in a combined
California and federal income tax bracket would have to earn before taxes to
equal the fund's tax-free yield.

INVESTMENT TERMS

*   BASIS POINT -- one one-hundredth of a percentage point (or 0.01%).
Therefore, 100 basis points equal one percentage point (or 1%).

*   YIELD CURVE -- a graphic representation of the relationship between maturity
and yield for fixed-income securities.

STATISTICAL TERMINOLOGY

*   NUMBER OF SECURITIES -- the number of different securities held by a fund on
a given date.

*   WEIGHTED AVERAGE MATURITY (WAM) -- a measure of the sensitivity of a
fixed-income portfolio to interest rate changes. WAM indicates the average time
until the securities in the portfolio mature, weighted by dollar amount. The
longer the WAM, the greater the portfolio's interest rate sensitivity.

*   AVERAGE DURATION -- a time-weighted average of the interest and principal
payments of the securities in a portfolio. As the duration of a portfolio
increases, so does the impact of a change in interest rates on the value of the
portfolio.

*   EXPENSE RATIO -- the operating expenses of the fund, expressed as a
percentage of average net assets. Shareholders pay an annual fee to the
investment manager for investment advisory and management services. The expenses
and fees are deducted from fund income, not from each shareholder account. (See
Note 2 in the Notes to Financial Statements.)

TYPES OF MUNICIPAL SECURITIES

*   COPS (CERTIFICATES OF PARTICIPATION)/LEASES -- securities issued to finance
public property improvements (such as city halls and police stations) and
equipment purchases. Certificates of participation are similar to long-term debt
obligations, but leases have a higher risk profile because they require annual
appropriation.

*   GO (GENERAL OBLIGATION) BONDS -- securities backed by the taxing power of
the issuer.

*   LAND-SECURED BONDS -- securities such as Mello-Roos bonds and 1915 Act bonds
that are issued to finance real estate development projects.

*   PREREFUNDED/ETM BONDS -- securities refinanced or escrowed to maturity by
the issuer because of their premium coupons (higher-than-market interest rates).
These bonds tend to have higher credit ratings because they are backed by
Treasury securities.

*   REVENUE BONDS -- securities backed by revenues from sales taxes or from a
specific project, system, or facility (such as a hospital, electric utility, or
water system).

FUND CLASSIFICATIONS

    Please be aware that the fund's category may change over time. Therefore, it
is important that you read a fund's prospectus or fund profile carefully before
investing to ensure its objectives, policies, and risk potential are consistent
with your needs.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

    The investment objective may be based on the fund's objective as stated in
its prospectus or fund profile, or the fund's categorization by independent
rating organizations based on its management style.

*   CAPITAL PRESERVATION -- offers taxable and tax-free money market funds for
relative stability of principal and liquidity.

*   INCOME -- offers funds that can provide current income and competitive
yields, as well as a strong and stable foundation and generally lower volatility
levels than stock funds.

*   GROWTH & INCOME -- offers funds that emphasize both growth and income
provided by either dividend-paying equities or a combination of equity and
fixed-income securities.

*   GROWTH -- offers funds with a focus on capital appreciation and long-term
growth, generally providing high return potential with corresponding high
price-fluctuation risk.

RISK

    The classification of funds by risk category is based on quantitative
historical measures as well as qualitative prospective measures. It is not
intended to be a precise indicator of future risk or return levels. The degree
of risk within each category can vary significantly, and some fund returns have
historically been higher than more aggressive funds or lower than more
conservative funds.

*   CONSERVATIVE -- these funds generally provide lower return potential with
either low or minimal price-fluctuation risk.

*   MODERATE -- these funds generally provide moderate return potential with
moderate price-fluctuation risk.

*   AGGRESSIVE -- these funds generally provide high return potential with
corresponding high price-fluctuation risk.

The investment objective may be based on the fund's objective as stated in its
prospectus or fund profile, or the fund's categorization by independent rating
organizations based on its management style.

The classification of funds by risk category is based on quantitative historical
measures as well as qualitative prospective measures. It is not intended to be a
precise indicator of future risk or return levels. The degree of risk within
each category can vary significantly, and some fund returns have historically
been higher than more aggressive funds or lower than more conservative funds.
Please be aware that a fund's category may change over time. Therefore, it is
important that you read a fund's prospectus or fund profile carefully before
investing to ensure its objectives, policies and risk potential are consistent
with your needs. For a definition of fund categories, see the Glossary.

* While listed within the Income investment objective, the Target funds do not
  pay current dividend income. Income  dividends are distributed once a year in
  December. The Target funds are listed in all three risk categories due to the
  dramatic price volatility investors may experience during certain market
  conditions. If held to their target dates,  however, they can offer a
  conservative, dependable way to invest for a specific time horizon.

Please call 1-800-345-2021 for a prospectus or profile on any American Century
fund. These documents contain important information including charges and
expenses, and you should read them carefully before you invest or send money.
