Your funds’ annualized seven-day SEC yields as of September 30, 2005

The Cash Management Trust of America	+3.17%
The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America
(reflecting a fee waiver, +2.73% without the waiver)	+2.77%
The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America (reflecting a fee waiver, +1.99% without the waiver)	+2.03%
The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America (taxable equivalent yield)2 (reflecting a fee waiver, +3.06% without the waiver)	+3.12%

The seven-day SEC yields more accurately reflect the funds’ current earnings than do their 30-day yields or total returns.

The investment adviser for The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America and The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America waived 5% of its management fees from September 1, 2004, through March 31, 2005, and increased the waiver to 10% on April 1, 2005. Fund results shown reflect the waiver, without which they would have been lower. Please see the funds’ Financial Highlights tables on pages 28 and 42, respectively, for details.

¹Equivalent to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) yields. Represents the seven-day month-end averages.

²Represents the fund’s taxable equivalent yield calculated at the maximum effective 35.0% federal tax rate.

³Because income paid by The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America is exempt from state and local taxes in most states, the fund’s taxable equivalent yield would be higher than the rates shown in the chart.

Results for share classes B, C, F and 529 of The Cash Management Trust of America can be found on page 19. Please see the inside back cover for important information about share classes.

Fellow shareholders:

During the funds’ fiscal year ended September 30, 2005, the U.S. economy continued to expand amid historically high oil prices and the uncertainty facing investors in the aftermath of hurricanes Katrina and Rita. In this environment, short-term interest rates increased gradually over the year and, as a result, the yields on The Cash Management Trust of America (CMTA), The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America (CTRS) and The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America (CTEX) steadily rose. All three funds maintained a constant net asset value of $1.00.

The funds’ results

The Cash Management Trust of America produced an income return of 2.20%, with dividends reinvested, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005. Reflecting the rise in money market rates, the fund’s annualized seven-day yield as of September 30 was 3.17%.

The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America generated a 12-month income return of 1.90%, including reinvested dividends. Because all of the fund’s earnings are derived from investments in U.S. Treasury securities, the income paid by the fund is exempt from state and local taxes in most states. The fund’s annualized seven-day yield for the week ended September 30, 2005, was 2.77%.

The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America provided a federally tax-free income return of 1.63%, with dividends reinvested, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005. The income return is equivalent to a taxable return of 2.51% for investors in the 35.0% federal tax bracket. A portion of the return may also be exempt from some state and local taxes. The fund’s annualized seven-day yield at the end of the period was 2.03%, and its taxable equivalent annualized seven-day yield was 3.12%.

The threat of inflation

For the year ended September 30, 2005, the “core rate of inflation,” the measure that the Federal Reserve Board uses as its prime indicator of inflation, was up by 2.0%. The core rate of inflation does not include the price impact of energy and food. Largely because of the big surge in oil prices, the overall increase in the Consumer Price Index was 4.7%. Concerns about rising inflation have heightened expectations that the Fed will continue the pace of interest rate increases.

Over the course of the funds’ fiscal year, the Fed has raised the federal funds rate eight times, part of 12 consecutive hikes of 0.25 percentage points from June 30, 2004, to November 1 of this year. (To learn more about the federal funds rate and how it affects the funds, please see the feature article on page 2.) Because of the short-term maturities of the funds’ holdings, higher short-term rates are reflected in the funds’ yields as the proceeds of maturing issues are reinvested. Therefore, continued increases in short-term interest rates should boost the yield of each of the three money market funds.

The funds’ objectives

Protecting our shareholders’ principal, while providing a reasonable income return, is our foremost objective. With the added benefits of the stability and convenience the American Funds money market funds provide, they can play a valuable role in your overall investment plan.

Thank you for selecting an American Funds money market fund for your investment portfolio. As always, we appreciate the confidence you have placed in us and look forward to helping you meet your long-term financial goals.

Cordially,

/s/ Paul G. Haaga, Jr.	/s/ Abner D. Goldstine
Paul G. Haaga, Jr.	Abner D. Goldstine
Vice Chairman of the Boards	President

November 15, 2005

Martin Fenton, an independent Trustee of CMTA and CTEX since 1989, and CTRS since 1991, has been elected non-executive chairman of the Boards. Paul G. Haaga, Jr., the previous chairman, has been elected vice chairman. As independent Board chair for each fund, Mr. Fenton will chair Board meetings, including executive sessions of the independent Trustees, and will be responsible for Board agendas, but will not have other executive or management responsibilities with the funds. He will remain unaffiliated with Capital Research and Management Company, the funds’ investment adviser, and any of its affiliates.

Recently, it has become nearly impossible to read an article about the economy without a mention of the federal funds rate. In fact, we discuss it in every shareholder letter we write to you. We do this because changes in the federal funds rate have a direct effect on other short-term rates and the securities that the money market funds invest in. That is why we think it’s important to provide you with an explanation of the federal funds rate and how it works.

The federal funds rate and the money market funds

What it is and how it works

The Federal Reserve System, popularly known as “the Fed,” was created in 1913 to give the federal government some control over banking, which at the time was mostly subject to state regulation. The Fed has a central Board of Governors in Washington, D.C., and 12 regional Federal Reserve Banks. The Board of Governors has seven members all nominated by the President of the United States and confirmed by the U.S. Senate. Alan Greenspan, the chairman since 1987, is set to retire in early 2006. His nominated successor, Ben Bernanke, was a member of the Fed’s Board of Governors from 2002 until June of 2005.

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is the monetary policymaking branch of the Fed. The seven members of the Board of Governors plus a rotating group of five Federal Reserve Bank presidents make up the FOMC. The FOMC meets eight times each year to decide, among other things, whether to raise, lower or leave unchanged its target for the federal funds rate, which is the rate that banks pay to borrow overnight from each other. The Fed has the ability to keep the federal funds rate close to its target rate through its “open market operations’” — by buying and selling U.S. Treasury securities in the markets in which investors buy or sell. What makes the Fed’s transactions special is due to the fact that its purchases or sales add to or reduce the ability of banks to extend credit.

The federal funds rate can have a significant effect on the pace of economic growth. It is the linchpin or basis for all short-term interest rates, including the prime rate, which is the base rate that banks use in pricing commercial loans for their best and most creditworthy customers. As a consequence, any change in the federal funds rate has a meaningful impact on the cost of borrowing for both individuals and businesses.

If the Fed wants to cool down the economy, it does so by increasing the federal funds rate. This can curb economic growth and help contain inflation pressures. If instead the Fed wants to stimulate the economy, it does so by reducing the federal funds rate, making it easier for banks to lend money and cheaper for consumers and businesses to borrow.

How the money market funds are affected

The chart on the inside front cover shows how changes in the federal funds rate affect the yields on our money market funds. The Fed began cutting the federal funds rate in early 2001 to stimulate the economy. The federal funds rate was cut 13 times taking it from 6.50% in January 2001 to 1.0% in June 2003. That was the lowest level in 40 years. Notice how the yields on the money market funds followed suit, leading to sharply lower yields than those of a few years earlier.

Today, the picture is a bit different. The Fed began raising rates in June 2004 and has continued to do so as the chart on the inside front cover indicates. The most recent hike on November 1 (a month after the funds’ fiscal year-end) brought the federal funds rate to 4.0%. And higher rates have led to higher yields for the money market funds.

The average maturity of the hundreds of short-term securities that comprise the three money market funds ranges from 28 to 41 days as of the end of the fiscal year: The Cash Management Trust of America invests a significant portion of its portfolio in high-quality short-term commercial paper; The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America invests entirely in U.S. Treasury bills; and The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America invests in short-term municipal securities. Because most of the funds’ obligations come due in less than two months, there is a constant opportunity to replace maturing obligations.

A rising interest rate environment means that new investments will be made at increasingly higher yields that are quickly reflected in higher returns for shareholders. Consequently, further federal funds rate increases will quickly boost the funds’ yields.

The value of the money market funds

The American Funds money market funds, more stable than equity or bond funds, are a key element in a diversified portfolio. Unlike a savings or a checking account, the funds are actively managed by a group of dedicated and experienced investment professionals at Capital Research and Management Company, the funds’ investment adviser. They recognize the value of every dollar that comes into the funds, and strive to preserve that value through various market environments.

1.    Organization and significant accounting policies

Organization - The Cash Management Trust of America (the "fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end, diversified management investment company. The fund seeks to provide income on cash reserves, while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity, through investments in high-quality short-term money market instruments.

The fund offers 14 share classes consisting of four retail share classes, five CollegeAmerica^Òsavings plan share classes and five retirement plan share classes. The CollegeAmerica savings plan share classes (529-A, 529-B, 529-C, 529-E and 529-F) can be utilized to save for college education. The five retirement plan share classes (R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4 and R-5) are sold without any sales charges and do not carry any conversion rights. The fund’s share classes are described below:

CollegeAmerica is a registered trademark of and sponsored by the Virginia College Savings Plan.^SM

Share class	Initial sales charge	Contingent deferred sales charge upon redemption	Conversion feature
Classes A and 529-A	None	None	None
Classes B and 529-B	None	Declines from 5% to 0% for redemptions within six years of purchase	Classes B and 529-B convert to classes A and 529-A, respectively, after eight years
Class C	None	1% for redemptions within one year of purchase	Class C converts to Class F after 10 years
Class 529-C	None	1% for redemptions within one year of purchase	None
Class 529-E	None	None	None
Classes F and 529-F	None	None	None
Classes R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4 and R-5	None	None	None

Holders of all share classes have equal pro rata rights to assets, dividends and liquidation proceeds.Each share class has identical voting rights, except for the exclusive right to vote on matters affecting only its class. Share classes have different fees and expenses ("class-specific fees and expenses"), primarily due to different arrangements for distribution, administrative and shareholder services. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income and, therefore, the payment of different per-share dividends by each class.

Significant accounting policies - The financial statements have been prepared to comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the fund:

Net asset value - The fund values its shares in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules, using the penny-rounding method, which permits the fund to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share.

Security valuation - Fixed-income securities, including short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days left to maturity, are valued at prices obtained from an independent pricing service when such prices are available. However, where the investment adviser deems it appropriate, such securities will be valued at the mean quoted bid and asked prices (or bid prices, if asked prices are not available) or at prices for securities of comparable maturity, quality and type. Short-term securities purchased within 60 days to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. The value of short-term securities originally purchased with maturities greater than 60 days is determined based on an amortized value to par when they reach 60 days or less remaining to maturity. The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the fund to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in a specific industry, state or region. Securities and other assets for which representative market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined in good faith under procedures adopted by authority of the fund's Board of Trustees. Various factors may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of a security’s fair value. These factors include, but are not limited to, the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded similar or related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security; and changes in overall market conditions.

Security transactions and related investment income - Security transactions are recorded by the fund as of the date the trades are executed with brokers. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Market discounts, premiums and original issue discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized daily over the expected life of the security.

Class allocations - Income, fees and expenses (other than class-specific fees and expenses) are allocated daily among the various share classes based on the relative value of their settled shares. Unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily among the various share classes based on their relative net assets. Class-specific fees and expenses, such as distribution, administrative and shareholder services, are charged directly to the respective share class.

Dividends to shareholders - Dividends paid to shareholders are declared daily after the determination of the fund’s net investment income and are paid to shareholders monthly.

2. Federal income taxation and distributions

The fund complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to mutual funds and intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income each year. The fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made.

Distributions - Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income for financial reporting purposes. As of September 30, 2005, there were no material differences between book and tax reporting. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income is recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes. As of September 30, 2005, the cost of investment securities for federal income tax purposes was $9,072,149,000.

As of September 30, 2005, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Undistributed net investment income	$ 595
Short-term loss carryforward expiring in 2013	(9)
Gross unrealized appreciation on investment securities	280
Gross unrealized depreciation on investment securities	(93)
Net unrealized appreciation on investment securities	187

Distributions paid or accruedto shareholders from ordinary income were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Share class	Year ended September 30, 2005		Year ended September 30, 2004
Class A	$	166,009	$	64,312

3. Fees and transactions with related parties

Capital Research and Management Company ("CRMC"), the fund’s investment adviser, is the parent company of American Funds Service Company ("AFS"), the fund’s transfer agent, and American Funds Distributors, Inc. ("AFD"), the principal underwriter of the fund’s shares.

Investment advisory services - The Investment Advisory and Service Agreement with CRMC provides for monthly fees accrued daily. These fees are based on a declining series of annual rates beginning with 0.320% on the first $1 billion of daily net assets and decreasing to 0.270% on such assets in excess of $2 billion. For the year ended September 30, 2005, the investment advisory services fees was $24,653,000, which was equivalent to an annualized rate of 0.278% of average daily net assets.

The Investment Advisory and Service Agreement also provides that CRMC will reimburse the fund’s Class A shares to the extent that annual operating expenses exceed 25% of gross income. Expenses related to interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary items are not subject to these limitations. At the beginning of the year, low income levels, caused by low in short-term interest rates, resulted in expenses exceeding this limit. At September 30, 2005, higher income levels resulted in the fund’s expenses falling within the limit. During the year ended September 30, 2005, these reimbursements totaled $2,183,000. The amount of reimbursement during any period will vary in accordance with the fund’s gross income and expense levels.

Class-specific fees and expenses - Expenses that are specific to individual share classes are accrued directly to the respective share class. The principal class-specific fees and expenses are described below:

Distribution services - The fund has adopted plans of distribution for all share classes, except Class R-5. Under the plans, the Board of Trustees approves certain categories of expenses that are used to finance activities primarily intended to sell fund shares and service existing accounts. The plans provide for payments, based on an annualized percentage of average daily net assets, ranging from 0.15% to 1.00% as noted below. In some cases, the Board of Trustees has limited the amounts that may be paid to less than the maximum allowed by the plans. All share classes may use a portion (0.15% for classes A, B, 529-A and 529-B shares and 0.25% for all other share classes) of average daily net assets to pay service fees, or to compensate AFD for paying service fees, to firms that have entered into agreements with AFD for providing certain shareholder services. The remaining amounts available to be paid under each plan are paid to selling dealers to compensate them for their selling activities.

Share class	Currently approved limits	Plan limits
Class A	0.15%	0.15%
Class 529-A	0.15	0.50
Classes B and 529-B	0.90	0.90
Classes C, 529-C and R-1	1.00	1.00
Class R-2	0.75	1.00
Classes 529-E and R-3	0.50	0.75
Classes F, 529-F and R-4	0.25	0.50

Transfer agent services -The fund has a transfer agent agreement with AFS for classes A and B. Under this agreement, these share classes compensate AFS for transfer agent services including shareholder recordkeeping, communications and transaction processing. AFS is also compensated for certain transfer agent services provided to all other share classes from the administrative services fees paid to CRMC described below.

Administrative services - The fund has an administrative services agreement with CRMC to provide transfer agent and other related shareholder services for all share classes other than classes A and B. Each relevant share class pays CRMC annual fees up to 0.15% (0.10% for Class R-5) based on its respective average daily net assets. Each relevant share class also pays AFS additional amounts for certain transfer agent services. CRMC and AFS may use these fees to compensate third parties for performing these services. CRMC has agreed to pay AFS on the fund's behalf for a portion of the transfer agent services fees for some of the retirement plan share classes. For the year ended September 30, 2005, the total administrative services fees paid by CRMC were $6,000, $1,197,000 and $94,000 for classes R-1, R-2 and R-3, respectively. Administrative services fees are presented gross of any payments made by CRMC. Each 529 share class is subject to an additional annual administrative services fee of 0.10% of its respective average daily net assets; this fee is payable to the Commonwealth of Virginia for the maintenance of the CollegeAmerica plan.Although these amounts are included with administrative services fees on the accompanying financial statements, the Commonwealth of Virginia is not considered a related party.

Expenses under the agreements described on the previous page for the year ended September 30, 2005, were as follows (dollars in thousands):

At the beginning of the year, due to lower short-term interest rates, CRMC agreed to pay a portion of the class-specific fees and expenses. For the year ended September 30, 2005, the total fees paid by CRMC for Class 529-C were $115.

Deferred Trustees’ compensation - Since the adoption of the deferred compensation plan in 1993, Trustees who are unaffiliated with CRMC may elect to defer the cash payment of part or all of their compensation. These deferred amounts, which remain as liabilities of the fund, are treated as if invested in shares of the fund. These amounts represent general, unsecured liabilities of the fund and vary according to the total return of the fund. Trustees’ compensation on the accompanying financial statements includes the current fees (either paid in cash or deferred) and the net increase or decrease in the value of the deferred amounts.

Affiliated officers and Trustees - Officers and certain Trustees of the fund are or may be considered to be affiliated with CRMC, AFS and AFD. No affiliated officers or Trustees received any compensation directly from the fund.

Report of independent registered public accounting firm

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of The Cash Management Trust of America:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Cash Management Trust of America (the "Fund") at September 30, 2005, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's 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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 owned at September 30, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian, provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Tax information                                                                                                                            & #160;     unaudited

We are required to advise you within 60 days of the fund’s fiscal year-end regarding the federal tax status of certain distributions received by shareholders during such fiscal year. The information below is provided for the fund’s fiscal year ending September 30, 2005.

For state tax purposes, certain states may exempt from income taxation that portion of the income dividends paid by the fund that were derived from direct U.S. government obligations. The fund designates $17,876,000 as interest derived on direct U.S. government obligations.

Individual shareholders should refer to their Form 1099-DIV or other tax information, which will be mailed in January 2006, to determine the calendar year amounts to be included on their 2005 tax returns. Shareholders should consult their tax advisers.

Expense example                                                      unaudited

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur certain ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees; and other expenses. Certain share classes also incur transaction costs such as contingent deferred sales charges (loads) on redemptions. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund so you can compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (April 1, 2005, through September 30, 2005).

Actual expenses:

The first line of each share class in the table on the next page provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses paid during period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. There are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts, such as Individual Retirement Accounts and CollegeAmerica accounts (generally, a $10 fee is charged to set up the account and an additional $10 fee is charged to the account annually) that would increase the amount of expenses paid on your account. In addition, retirement plan participants may be subject to certain fees charged by the plan sponsor, and Class F and Class 529-F shareholders may be subject to fees charged by financial intermediaries, typically ranging from 0.75% to 1.50% of assets annually depending on services offered. You can estimate the impact of these fees by adding the amount of the fees to the total estimated expenses you paid on your account during the period as calculated above. In addition, your ending account value would also be lower by the amount of these fees.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes:

The second line of each share class in the table on the next page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio for the share class and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of the share class. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5.00% hypothetical example with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. There are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts, such as Individual Retirement Accounts and CollegeAmerica accounts (generally, a $10 fee is charged to set up the account and an additional $10 fee is charged to the account annually) that would increase the amount of expenses paid on your account. In addition, retirement plan participants may be subject to certain fees charged by the plan sponsor, and Class F and Class 529-F shareholders may be subject to fees charged by financial intermediaries, typically ranging from 0.75% to 1.50% of assets annually depending on services offered. You can estimate the impact of these fees by adding the amount of the fees to the total estimated expenses you paid on your account during the period as calculated above. In addition, your ending account value would also be lower by the amount of these fees.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line of each share class in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

¹ Expenses are equal to the annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (183), and divided by 365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Notes to financial statements

1.    Organization and significant accounting policies

Organization - The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America (the "fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end, diversified management investment company. The fund seeks to provide income on cash reserves, while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity, through investments in U.S. Treasury securities maturing in one year or less.

The fund offers six share classes consisting of one retail share class (Class A) and five retirement plan share classes (R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4 and R-5). All share classes are sold without any sales charges and do not carry any conversion rights.

Holders of all share classes have equal pro rata rights to assets, dividends and liquidation proceeds.Each share class has identical voting rights, except for the exclusive right to vote on matters affecting only its class. Share classes have different fees and expenses ("class-specific fees and expenses"), primarily due to different arrangements for distribution, administrative and shareholder services. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income and, therefore, the payment of different per-share dividends by each class.

Significant accounting policies - The financial statements have been prepared to comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the fund:

Net asset value - The fund values its shares in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules, using the penny-rounding method, which permits the fund to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share.

Security valuation - Fixed-income securities, including short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days left to maturity, are valued at prices obtained from an independent pricing service when such prices are available. However, where the investment adviser deems it appropriate, such securities will be valued at the mean quoted bid and asked prices (or bid prices, if asked prices are not available) or at prices for securities of comparable maturity, quality and type. Short-term securities purchased within 60 days to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. The value of short-term securities originally purchased with maturities greater than 60 days is determined based on an amortized value to par when they reach 60 days or less remaining to maturity. Securities and other assets for which representative market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined in good faith under procedures adopted by authority of the fund's Board of Trustees.

Security transactions and related investment income - Security transactions are recorded by the fund as of the date the trades are executed with brokers. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Market discounts, premiums and original issue discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized daily over the expected life of the security.

Class allocations - Income, fees and expenses (other than class-specific fees and expenses) are allocated daily among the various share classes based on the relative value of their settled shares. Unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily among the various share classes based on their relative net assets. Class-specific fees and expenses, such as distribution, administrative and shareholder services, are charged directly to the respective share class.

Dividends to shareholders - Dividends paid to shareholders are declared daily after the determination of the fund’s net investment income and are paid to shareholders monthly.

2. Federal income taxation and distributions

The fund complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to mutual funds and intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income each year. The fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made.

Distributions - Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income for financial reporting purposes. As of September 30, 2005, there were no material differences between book and tax reporting. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income is recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes. As of September 30, 2005, the cost of investment securities for federal income tax purposes was $544,532,000.

As of September 30, 2005, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Undistributed net investment income	$86
Gross unrealized appreciation on investment securities	55
Gross unrealized depreciation on investment securities	(1)
Net unrealized appreciation on investment securities	54

Distributions paid or accruedto shareholders from ordinary income were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Share class	Year ended September 30, 2005		Year ended September 30 2004
Class A	$	9,126	$	2,147
Class R-1		13		1
Class R-2		254		19
Class R-3		265		16
Class R-4		62		5
Class R-5		136		31
Total	$	9,856	$	2,219

3. Fees and transactions with related parties

Capital Research and Management Company ("CRMC"), the fund’s investment adviser, is the parent company of American Funds Service Company ("AFS"), the fund’s transfer agent, and American Funds Distributors, Inc. ("AFD"), the principal underwriter of the fund’s shares.

Investment advisory services - The Investment Advisory and Service Agreement with CRMC providesfor monthly fees accrued daily. These fees are based on an annual rate of 0.300% on the first $800 million of daily net assets and 0.285% on such assets in excess of $800 million. CRMC is currently waiving a portion of investment advisory services fees. At the beginning of the year, CRMC waived 5% of these fees and increased the waiver to 10% on April 1, 2005. During the year ended September 30, 2005, total investment advisory services fees waived by CRMC were $122,000. As a result, the fee shown on the accompanying financial statements of $1,630,000, which was equivalent to an annualized rate of 0.300%, was reduced to $1,508,000, or 0.278% of average daily net assets.

Class-specific fees and expenses - Expenses that are specific to individual share classes are accrued directly to the respective share class. The principal class-specific fees and expenses are described below:

Distribution services - The fund has adopted plans of distribution for all share classes, except Class R-5. Under the plans, the Board of Trustees approves certain categories of expenses that are used to finance activities primarily intended to sell fund shares and service existing accounts. The plans provide for payments, based on an annualized percentage of average daily net assets, ranging from 0.15% to 1.00% as noted below. In some cases, the Board of Trustees has limited the amounts that may be paid to less than the maximum allowed by the plans. All share classes may use a portion (0.15% for Class A and 0.25% for all other share classes) of average daily net assets to pay service fees, or to compensate AFD for paying service fees, to firms that have entered into agreements with AFD for providing certain shareholder services. The remaining amounts available to be paid under each plan are paid to selling dealers to compensate them for their selling activities.

Share class	Currently approved limits	Plan limits
Class A	0.15%	0.15%
Class R-1	1.00	1.00
Class R-2	0.75	1.00
Class R-3	0.50	0.75
Class R-4	0.25	0.50

Transfer agent services -The fund has a transfer agent agreement with AFS for Class A shares. Under this agreement, this share class compensates AFS for transfer agent services including shareholder recordkeeping, communications and transaction processing. AFS is also compensated for certain transfer agent services provided to all other share classes from the administrative services fees paid to CRMC described below.

Administrative services - The fund has an administrative services agreement with CRMC to provide transfer agent and other related shareholder services for all share classes other than Class A. Each relevant share class pays CRMC annual fees up to 0.15% (0.10% for Class R-5) based on its respective average daily net assets. Each relevant share class also pays AFS additional amounts for certain transfer agent services. CRMC and AFS may use these fees to compensate third parties for performing these services. CRMC has agreed to pay AFS on the fund's behalf for a portion of the transfer agent services fees for some of the retirement plan share classes. For the year ended September 30, 2005, the total administrative services fees paid by CRMC were $1,000, $69,000 and $2,000 for classes R-1, R-2 and R-3, respectively. Administrative services fees are presented gross of any payments made by CRMC.

Expenses under the agreements described above for the year ended September 30, 2005, were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Share class	Distribution services	Transfer agent services	Administrative services
			CRMC administrative services	Transfer agent services
Class A	$523	$690	Not applicable	Not applicable
Class R-1	12	Included in administrative services	$2	$1
Class R-2	184		37	136
Class R-3	92		28	26
Class R-4	9		5	1
Class R-5	Not applicable		7	1
Total	$820	$690	$79	$165

At the beginning of the year, due to lower short-term interest rates, CRMC agreed to pay a portion of the class-specific fees and expenses. For the year ended September 30, 2005, the total fees paid by CRMC were $62 and $676 for classes R-1 and R-2, respectively.

Deferred Trustees’ compensation - Since the adoption of the deferred compensation plan in 1993, Trustees who are unaffiliated with CRMC may elect to defer the cash payment of part or all of their compensation.

Report of independent registered public accounting firm

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America (the "Fund") at September 30, 2005, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's 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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 owned at September 30, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian, provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Tax information                                                                unaudited

We are required to advise you within 60 days of the fund’s fiscal year-end regarding the federal tax status of certain distributions received by shareholders during such fiscal year. The information below is provided for the fund’s fiscal year ending September 30, 2005.

For state tax purposes, certain states may exempt from income taxation that portion of the income dividends paid by the fund that were derived from direct U.S. government obligations. The fund designates all as interest derived on direct U.S. government obligations.

Individual shareholders should refer to their Form 1099-DIV or other tax information, which will be mailed in January 2006, to determine the calendar year amounts to be included on their 2005 tax returns. Shareholders should consult their tax advisers.

Expense example                                                                                & #160;                      unaudited

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur certain ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees; and other expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund so you can compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (April 1, 2005, through September 30, 2005).

Actual expenses:

The first line of each share class in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses paid during period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. There are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts, such as Individual Retirement Accounts (generally, a $10 fee is charged to set up the account and an additional $10 fee is charged to the account annually) that would increase the amount of expenses paid on your account. In addition, retirement plan participants may be subject to certain fees charged by the plan sponsor. You can estimate the impact of these fees by adding the amount of the fees to the total estimated expenses you paid on your account during the period as calculated above. In addition, your ending account value would also be lower by the amount of these fees.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes:

The second line of each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio for the share class and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of the share class. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5.00% hypothetical example with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. There are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts, such as Individual Retirement Accounts (generally, a $10 fee is charged to set up the account and an additional $10 fee is charged to the account annually) that would increase the amount of expenses paid on your account. In addition, retirement plan participants may be subject to certain fees charged by the plan sponsor. You can estimate the impact of these fees by adding the amount of the fees to the total estimated expenses you paid on your account during the period as calculated above. In addition, your ending account value would also be lower by the amount of these fees.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs. Therefore, the second line of each share class in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Approval of renewal of Investment Advisory and Service Agreement

The fund’s Board members have approved the renewal of the fund’s Investment Advisory and Service Agreement (the “agreement”) with Capital Research and Management Company (“CRMC”) for an additional one-year term through October 31, 2006. The renewal of the agreement was approved by the Board following the recommendation of the fund’s Contracts Committee (the “committee”), which is comprised of all of the fund’s independent Board members. The information, material facts and conclusions that formed the basis for the committee’s recommendation and the Board’s subsequent approval are described below.

1. Information received

Materials reviewed — During the course of each year, the independent Board members receive a wide variety of materials relating to the services provided by CRMC, including reports on the fund’s investment results, portfolio composition, portfolio trading practices, shareholder services, and other information relating to the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CRMC to the fund. In addition, the committee requests and reviews supplementary information that includes extensive materials regarding the fund’s investment results, advisory fee and expense comparisons (including comparisons to advisory fees charged by an affiliate of CRMC to institutional clients), financial and profitability information regarding CRMC, descriptions of various functions such as compliance monitoring and portfolio trading practices, and information about the personnel providing investment management and administrative services to the fund.

Review process — The committee received assistance and advice regarding legal and industry standards from independent counsel to the independent Board members. The committee discussed the renewal of the agreement with CRMC representatives and in a private session with independent legal counsel at which no representatives of CRMC were present. In deciding to recommend the renewal of the agreement, the committee did not identify any single or particular piece of information that, in isolation, was the controlling factor. This summary describes the most important, but not all, of the factors considered by the Board and the committee.

2. Nature, extent and quality of services

CRMC, its personnel and its resources — The Board and the committee considered the depth and quality of CRMC’s investment management process, including its global research capabilities; the experience, capability and integrity of its senior management and other personnel; the low turnover rates of its key personnel; the overall financial strength and stability of its organization; and the ability of its organizational structure to address the recent growth in assets under management. The Board and the committee also considered that CRMC made available to its investment professionals a variety of resources and systems relating to investment management, compliance, trading, results and portfolio accounting. They considered CRMC’s commitment to investing in information technology supporting investment management and compliance. They further considered CRMC’s continuing need to attract and retain qualified personnel and to maintain and enhance its resources and systems.

Other services — The Board and the committee considered CRMC’s policies, procedures and systems to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations and its commitment to these programs; its efforts to keep the Board members informed; and its attention to matters that may involve conflicts of interest with the fund. The Board and the committee also considered the nature, extent, quality and cost of administrative, distribution and shareholder services provided by CRMC to the fund under the agreement and other agreements, including the information technology, legal, and fund accounting and treasury functions.

The Board and the committee concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CRMC have benefited and will continue to benefit the fund and its shareholders.

3. Investment results

The Board and committee considered the investment results of the fund in light of its objective of providing shareholders with income on their cash reserves while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity. They compared the fund’s total returns with the total returns of the Lipper U.S. Treasury Money Market Funds Index (the Lipper category that includes the fund) and the averages of the funds included in the Lipper Index each year.

The Board and the committee noted that for the seven months ended July 31, 2005, and the three-, five- and 10-year periods ended July 31, 2005, the fund’s investment results were at or near those of both the Lipper Index and the averages of the funds included in the Lipper Index. The Board also noted that the ranges of results of the funds included in the Lipper Index were narrow during the measurement periods. The Board and the committee ultimately concluded that CRMC’s record in managing the fund indicates that its continued management will benefit the fund and its shareholders.

4. Advisory fees and total expenses

The Board and the committee compared the advisory fees and total expenses of the fund (each as a percentage of average net assets) with the median fee and expense levels of all other funds in the Lipper U.S. Treasury Money Market Funds Index. The Board and the committee observed that the fund’s advisory fee was near the median of the other funds included in the Lipper Index for the year ended September 30, 2004, and below the median of the other funds for the previous nine years, and that its total expenses were near or below the median for all such other funds for the 10 years ended September 30, 2004. The Board and the committee also noted the complexwide 5% voluntary advisory fee waiver that CRMC put into effect during 2004, and the additional 5% advisory fee waiver implemented effective April 1, 2005. The Board and the committee concluded that the relatively low level of the fees charged by CRMC will benefit the fund and its shareholders.

The Board and the committee also reviewed information regarding the advisory fees paid by institutional clients of an affiliate of CRMC with similar investment mandates. They concluded that, although the fees paid by those clients generally were lower than those paid by American Funds, the differences appropriately reflected CRMC’s significantly greater responsibilities with respect to American Funds and the more comprehensive regulatory regime applicable to mutual funds.

5. Adviser costs, level of profits and economies of scale

The Board and the committee reviewed information regarding CRMC’s costs of providing services to the American Funds, as well as the resulting level of profits to CRMC, noting that those results were comparable to the reported results of several large, publicly held investment management companies. The committee also received information during the past year regarding the structure and manner in which CRMC’s investment professionals were compensated and CRMC’s view of the relationship of such compensation to the attraction and retention of quality personnel. The Board and the committee considered CRMC’s willingness to invest in technology, infrastructure and staff to reinforce and offer new services and to accommodate changing regulatory requirements. They further considered that breakpoints in the fund’s advisory fee structure provide for reductions in the level of fees charged by CRMC to the fund as fund assets and gross income increase, reflecting economies of scale in the cost of operations that are shared with fund shareholders. The Board and the committee concluded that the fund’s cost structure was reasonable and that CRMC was sharing economies of scale with the fund and its shareholders, to their benefit.

6. Ancillary benefits

The Board and the committee considered a variety of other benefits received by CRMC and its affiliates as a result of CRMC’s relationship with the fund and the other American Funds, including fees for administrative services provided to certain share classes; fees paid to CRMC’s affiliated transfer agent; sales charges and distribution fees received and retained by the fund’s principal underwriter, an affiliate of CRMC; and possible ancillary benefits to CRMC’s institutional management affiliate. The Board and the committee reviewed CRMC’s portfolio trading practices, noting that, while CRMC receives the benefit of research provided by broker-dealers executing portfolio transactions on behalf of the fund, it does not obtain third-party research or other services in return for allocating brokerage to such broker-dealers.

7. Conclusions

Based on their review, including their consideration of each of the factors referred to above, the Board and the committee concluded that the agreement is fair and reasonable to the fund and its shareholders, that the fund’s shareholders received reasonable value in return for the advisory fees and other amounts paid to CRMC by the fund, and that the renewal of the agreement was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.

Notes to financial statements     

1.    Organization and significant accounting policies

Organization - The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America (the "fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end, diversified management investment company. The fund seeks to provide income free from federal taxes, while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity, through investments in high-quality municipal securities with effective maturities of one year or less.

The fund offers two share classes consisting of one retail share class (Class A) and one retirement plan share class (Class R-5). Each share class is sold without any sales charges and does not carry any conversion rights.

Holders of all share classes have equal pro rata rights to assets, dividends and liquidation proceeds.Each share class has identical voting rights, except for the exclusive right to vote on matters affecting only its class. Share classes have different fees and expenses ("class-specific fees and expenses"), primarily due to different arrangements for distribution, administrative and shareholder services. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income and, therefore, the payment of different per-share dividends by each class.

Significant accounting policies - The financial statements have been prepared to comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the fund:

Net asset value - The fund values its shares in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules, using the penny-rounding method, which permits the fund to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share.

Security valuation - Fixed-income securities, including short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days left to maturity, are valued at prices obtained from an independent pricing service when such prices are available. However, where the investment adviser deems it appropriate, such securities will be valued at the mean quoted bid and asked prices (or bid prices, if asked prices are not available) or at prices for securities of comparable maturity, quality and type. Short-term securities purchased within 60 days to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. The value of short-term securities originally purchased with maturities greater than 60 days is determined based on an amortized value to par when they reach 60 days or less remaining to maturity. The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the fund to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in a specific industry, state or region. Securities and other assets for which representative market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined in good faith under procedures adopted by authority of the fund's Board of Trustees. Various factors may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of a security’s fair value. These factors include, but are not limited to, the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded similar or related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security; and changes in overall market conditions.

Security transactions and related investment income - Security transactions are recorded by the fund as of the date the trades are executed with brokers. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Market discounts, premiums and original issue discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized daily over the expected life of the security.

Class allocations - Income, fees and expenses (other than class-specific fees and expenses) are allocated daily among the two share classes based on the relative value of their settled shares. Unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily among the two share classes based on their relative net assets. Class-specific fees and expenses, such as distribution, administrative and shareholder services, are charged directly to the respective share class.

Dividends to shareholders - Dividends paid to shareholders are declared daily after the determination of the fund’s net investment income and are paid to shareholders monthly.

2. Federal income taxation and distributions

The fund complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to mutual funds and intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income each year. The fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Generally, income earned by the fund is exempt from federal income taxes.

Distributions - Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income for financial reporting purposes. As of September 30, 2005, there were no material differences between book and tax reporting. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income is recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes. As of September 30, 2005, the cost of investment securities for federal income tax purposes was $430,516,000.

As of September 30, 2005, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Undistributed net investment income	$ 93
Short-term loss carryforwards (expiring 2006-2011)	(94)
Gross unrealized depreciation on investment securities	(36)

Distributions paid or accruedto shareholders from ordinary income were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Share class		Year ended September 30, 2005		Year ended September 30, 2004
Class A	$	6,341	$	1,874
Class R-5		339		61
Total	$	6,680	$	1,935

3. Fees and transactions with related parties

Capital Research and Management Company ("CRMC"), the fund’s investment adviser, is the parent company of American Funds Service Company ("AFS"), the fund’s transfer agent, and American Funds Distributors, Inc. ("AFD"), the principal underwriter of the fund’s shares.

Investment advisory services - The Investment Advisory and Service Agreement with CRMC provides for monthly fees accrued daily. These fees are based on a declining series of annual rates beginning with 0.390% on the first $200 million of daily net assets and decreasing to 0.290% on such assets in excess of $1.2 billion. CRMC is currently waiving a portion of investment advisory services fees. At the beginning of the year, CRMC waived 5% of these fees and increased the waiver to 10% on April 1, 2005. During the year ended September 30, 2005, total investment advisory services fees waived by CRMC were $118,000. As a result, the fee shown on the accompanying financial statements of $1,571,000, which was equivalent to an annualized rate of 0.380%, was reduced to $1,453,000 or 0.351% of average daily net assets.

Class-specific fees and expenses - Expenses that are specific to individual share classes are accrued directly to the respective share class. The principal class-specific fees and expenses are described below:

Distribution services - The fund has adopted a plan of distribution for Class A shares. Under the plan, the Board of Trustees approves certain categories of expenses that are used to finance activities primarily intended to sell fund shares and service existing accounts. The plan provides for payments, based on an annualized percentage of average daily net assets, of up to 0.15%. This class may use a portion of average daily net assets to pay service fees, or to compensate AFD for paying service fees, to firms that have entered into agreements with AFD for providing certain shareholder services.

Transfer agent services -The fund has a transfer agent agreement with AFS for Class A shares. Under this agreement, this share class compensates AFS for transfer agent services including shareholder recordkeeping, communications and transaction processing. AFS is also compensated for certain transfer agent services provided to Class R-5 from the administrative services fees paid to CRMC described below.

Administrative services - The fund has an administrative services agreement with CRMC to provide transfer agent and other related shareholder services for Class R-5. This class pays CRMC annual fees up to 0.10% based on its average daily net assets. This class also pays AFS additional amounts for certain transfer agent services. CRMC and AFS may use these fees to compensate third parties for performing these services.

Deferred Trustees’ compensation - Since the adoption of the deferred compensation plan in 1993, Trustees who are unaffiliated with CRMC may elect to defer the cash payment of part or all of their compensation. These deferred amounts, which remain as liabilities of the fund, are treated as if invested in shares of the fund. These amounts represent general, unsecured liabilities of the fund and vary according to the total return of the fund. Trustees’ compensation on the accompanying financial statements includes the current fees (either paid in cash or deferred) and the net increase or decrease in the value of the deferred amounts.

Affiliated officers and Trustees - Officers and certain Trustees of the fund are or may be considered to be affiliated with CRMC, AFS and AFD. No affiliated officers or Trustees received any compensation directly from the fund.

Report of independent registered public accounting firm

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America (the "Fund") at September 30, 2005, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's 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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 owned at September 30, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian, provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Tax information                                                                unaudited

We are required to advise you within 60 days of the fund’s fiscal year-end regarding the federal tax status of certain distributions received by shareholders during such fiscal year. The information below is provided for the fund’s fiscal year ending September 30, 2005.

Shareholders may exclude from federal taxable income any exempt-interest dividends paid by the fund from net investment income. The fund designates all of the dividends paid by the fund earned during the fiscal year as exempt-interest dividends.

Individual shareholders should refer to their Form 1099-DIV or other tax information, which will be mailed in January 2006, to determine the calendar year amounts to be included on their 2005 tax returns. Shareholders should consult their tax advisers.

Expense example                                                      unaudited

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur certain ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees; and other expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund so you can compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (April 1, 2005, through September 30, 2005).

Actual expenses:

The first line of each share class in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses paid during period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. There are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts, such as Individual Retirement Accounts (generally, a $10 fee is charged to set up the account and an additional $10 fee is charged to the account annually) that would increase the amount of expenses paid on your account. In addition, retirement plan participants may be subject to certain fees charged by the plan sponsor. You can estimate the impact of these fees by adding the amount of the fees to the total estimated expenses you paid on your account during the period as calculated above. In addition, your ending account value would also be lower by the amount of these fees.

Hypothetical example for comparison purposes:

The second line of each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio for the share class and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of the share class. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5.00% hypothetical example with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. There are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts, such as Individual Retirement Accounts (generally, a $10 fee is charged to set up the account and an additional $10 fee is charged to the account annually) that would increase the amount of expenses paid on your account. In addition, retirement plan participants may be subject to certain fees charged by the plan sponsor. You can estimate the impact of these fees by adding the amount of the fees to the total estimated expenses you paid on your account during the period as calculated above. In addition, your ending account value would also be lower by the amount of these fees.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs. Therefore, the second line of each share class in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

	Beginning account value 4/1/2005		Ending account value 9/30/2005		Expenses paid during period 1		Annualized expense ratio
Class A -- actual return	$	1,000.00	$	1,010.10	$	2.37		.47	%
Class A -- assumed 5% return		1,000.00		1,022.71		2.38		.47
Class R-5 -- actual return		1,000.00		1,009.89		2.57		.51
Class R-5 -- assumed 5% return		1,000.00		1,022.51		2.59		.51

 ¹ Expenses are equal to the annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (183), and divided by 365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Approval of renewal of Investment Advisory and Service Agreement

The fund’s Board members have approved the renewal of the fund’s Investment Advisory and Service Agreement (the “agreement”) with Capital Research and Management Company (“CRMC”) for an additional one-year term through October 1, 2006. The renewal of the agreement was approved by the Board following the recommendation of the fund’s Contracts Committee (the “committee”), which is comprised of all of the fund’s independent Board members. The information, material facts and conclusions that formed the basis for the committee’s recommendation and the Board’s subsequent approval are described below.

1. Information received

Materials reviewed — During the course of each year, the independent Board members receive a wide variety of materials relating to the services provided by CRMC, including reports on the fund’s investment results, portfolio composition, portfolio trading practices, shareholder services, and other information relating to the nature, extent and quality of services provided by CRMC to the fund. In addition, the committee requests and reviews supplementary information that includes extensive materials regarding the fund’s investment results, advisory fee and expense comparisons (including comparisons to advisory fees charged by an affiliate of CRMC to institutional clients), financial and profitability information regarding CRMC, descriptions of various functions such as compliance monitoring and portfolio trading practices, and information about the personnel providing investment management and administrative services to the fund.

Review process — The committee received assistance and advice regarding legal and industry standards from independent counsel to the independent Board members. The committee discussed the renewal of the agreement with CRMC representatives and in a private session with independent legal counsel at which no representatives of CRMC were present. In deciding to recommend the renewal of the agreement, the committee did not identify any single or particular piece of information that, in isolation, was the controlling factor. This summary describes the most important, but not all, of the factors considered by the Board and the committee.

2. Nature, extent and quality of services

CRMC, its personnel and its resources — The Board and the committee considered the depth and quality of CRMC’s investment management process, including its global research capabilities; the experience, capability and integrity of its senior management and other personnel; the low turnover rates of its key personnel; the overall financial strength and stability of its organization; and the ability of its organizational structure to address the recent growth in assets under management. The Board and the committee also considered that CRMC made available to its investment professionals a variety of resources and systems relating to investment management, compliance, trading, results and portfolio accounting. They considered CRMC’s commitment to investing in information technology supporting investment management and compliance. They further considered CRMC’s continuing need to attract and retain qualified personnel and to maintain and enhance its resources and systems.

Other services — The Board and the committee considered CRMC’s policies, procedures and systems to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations and its commitment to these programs; its efforts to keep the Board members informed; and its attention to matters that may involve conflicts of interest with the fund. The Board and the committee also considered the nature, extent, quality and cost of administrative, distribution and shareholder services provided by CRMC to the fund under the agreement and other agreements, including the information technology, legal, and fund accounting and treasury functions.

The Board and the committee concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CRMC have benefited and will continue to benefit the fund and its shareholders.

3. Investment results

The Board and committee considered the investment results of the fund in light of its objective of providing shareholders with income on their cash reserves, exempt from federal income tax, while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity. They compared the fund’s total returns with the total returns of the Lipper Tax-Exempt Money Market Funds Index (the Lipper category that includes the fund) and the averages of the funds included in the Lipper Index each year.

The Board and the committee noted that for the seven months ended July 31, 2005, and the three-, five- and 10-year periods ended July 31, 2005, the fund’s investment results were at or near those of both the Lipper Index and the averages of the funds included in the Lipper Index. The Board also noted that the ranges of results of the funds included in the Lipper Index were narrow during the measurement periods. The Board and the committee ultimately concluded that CRMC’s record in managing the fund indicates that its continued management will benefit the fund and its shareholders.

4. Advisory fees and total expenses

The Board and the committee compared the advisory fees and total expenses of the fund (each as a percentage of average net assets) with the median fee and expense levels of all other funds in the Lipper Tax-Exempt Money Market Funds Index. The Board and the committee observed that the fund’s advisory fee was below the median of the other funds included in the Lipper Index for the entire 10-year period ended September 30, 2004, and that its total expenses had decreased over the 10-year period and were below the median for all such other funds for the five years ended September 30, 2004. The Board and the committee also noted the complexwide 5% voluntary advisory fee waiver that CRMC put into effect during 2004, and the additional 5% advisory fee waiver implemented effective April 1, 2005. The Board and the committee concluded that the relatively low level of the fees charged by CRMC will benefit the fund and its shareholders.

The Board and the committee also reviewed information regarding the advisory fees paid by institutional clients of an affiliate of CRMC with similar investment mandates. They concluded that, although the fees paid by those clients generally were lower than those paid by American Funds, the differences appropriately reflected CRMC’s significantly greater responsibilities with respect to American Funds and the more comprehensive regulatory regime applicable to mutual funds.

5. Adviser costs, level of profits and economies of scale

The Board and the committee reviewed information regarding CRMC’s costs of providing services to the American Funds, as well as the resulting level of profits to CRMC, noting that those results were comparable to the reported results of several large, publicly held investment management companies. The committee also received information during the past year regarding the structure and manner in which CRMC’s investment professionals were compensated and CRMC’s view of the relationship of such compensation to the attraction and retention of quality personnel. The Board and the committee considered CRMC’s willingness to invest in technology, infrastructure and staff to reinforce and offer new services and to accommodate changing regulatory requirements. They further considered that breakpoints in the fund’s advisory fee structure provide for reductions in the level of fees charged by CRMC to the fund as fund assets and gross income increase, reflecting economies of scale in the cost of operations that are shared with fund shareholders. The Board and the committee concluded that the fund’s cost structure was reasonable and that CRMC was sharing economies of scale with the fund and its shareholders, to their benefit.

6. Ancillary benefits

The Board and the committee considered a variety of other benefits received by CRMC and its affiliates as a result of CRMC’s relationship with the fund and the other American Funds, including fees for administrative services provided to certain share classes; fees paid to CRMC’s affiliated transfer agent; sales charges and distribution fees received and retained by the fund’s principal underwriter, an affiliate of CRMC; and possible ancillary benefits to CRMC’s institutional management affiliate. The Board and the committee reviewed CRMC’s portfolio trading practices, noting that, while CRMC receives the benefit of research provided by broker-dealers executing portfolio transactions on behalf of the fund, it does not obtain third-party research or other services in return for allocating brokerage to such broker-dealers.

7. Conclusions

Based on their review, including their consideration of each of the factors referred to above, the Board and the committee concluded that the agreement is fair and reasonable to the fund and its shareholders, that the fund’s shareholders received reasonable value in return for the advisory fees and other amounts paid to CRMC by the fund, and that the renewal of the agreement was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.

Most American Funds offer several share classes, each with its own sales charge and expense structure, allowing you to choose the one that best meets your financial needs. The three American Funds money market funds each offer Class A shares at no sales charge.

The Cash Management Trust of America (CMTA) is the only American Funds money market fund that offers Class B, Class C, Class F and Class 529 shares. CMTA classes B, C and F shares may be acquired only by exchanging from other American Funds within the same share class (i.e., they may not be purchased directly) and do not offer check-writing privileges. American Funds classes B, C and F shares are subject to additional annual expenses and fees, including, in the case of classes B and C shares, higher 12b-1 fees and contingent deferred sales charges if Class B shares are redeemed within six years of purchase and Class C shares are redeemed within one year of purchase. Classes B, C and F shares are not available to certain employer-sponsored retirement plans. See the CMTA prospectus for further details.

Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the American Funds and CollegeAmerica. This and other important information is contained in the funds’ prospectus and the CollegeAmerica program description, which can be obtained from your financial adviser and should be read carefully before investing. You may also call American Funds Service Company (AFS) at 800/421-0180 or visit the American Funds website at americanfunds.com. If you reside in a state other than Virginia, there may be an in-state plan that provides tax and other benefits not available through CollegeAmerica. Talk to your tax adviser.

What makes American Funds different?

For more than 70 years, we have followed a consistent philosophy that we firmly believe is in our investors’ best interests. The range of opportunities offered by our family of just 29 carefully conceived, broadly diversified funds has attracted over 30 million shareholder accounts.

Our unique combination of strengths includes these five factors:

• A long-term, value-oriented approach

Rather than follow fads, we pursue a consistent strategy, focusing on each investment’s long-term potential.

• An unparalleled global research effort

American Funds draws on one of the industry’s most globally integrated research networks.

• The multiple portfolio counselor system

Every American Fund is divided among a number of portfolio counselors. Each takes responsibility for a portion independently, within each fund’s objectives; in most cases, research analysts manage a portion as well. Over time this method has contributed to a consistency of results and continuity of management.

• Experienced investment professionals

The recent market decline was not the first for most of the portfolio counselors who serve the American Funds. More than half of them were in the investment business before the sharp market decline of 1987.

• A commitment to low operating expenses

American Funds’ operating expenses are among the lowest in the mutual fund industry. Our portfolio turnover rates are low as well, keeping transaction costs and tax consequences contained.

ITEM 2 - Code of Ethics

The Registrant has adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer. The Registrant undertakes to provide to any person without charge, upon request, a copy of the Code of Ethics. Such request can be made to American Funds Service Company at 800/421-0180 or to the Secretary of the Registrant, 333 South Hope Street, Los Angeles, California 90071.

ITEM 3 - Audit Committee Financial Expert

The Registrant’s Board has determined that H. Frederick Christie, a member of the Registrant’s Audit Committee, is an “audit committee financial expert” and "independent," as such terms are defined in this Item. This designation will not increase the designee’s duties, obligations or liability as compared to his or her duties, obligations and liability as a member of the Audit Committee and of the Board; nor will it reduce the responsibility of the other Audit Committee members. There may be other individuals who, through education or experience, would qualify as "audit committee financial experts" if the Board had designated them as such. Most importantly, the Board believes each member of the Audit Committee contributes significantly to the effective oversight of the Registrant’s financial statements and condition.

ITEM 4 - Principal Accountant Fees and Services

Registrant:
	a) Audit Fees:
		2004	$27,000
		2005	$24,000
	b) Audit-Related Fees:
		2004	none
		2005	none
	c) Tax Fees:
		2004	$5,000
		2005	$5,000
		The tax fees consist of professional services relating to the preparation of the Registrant’s tax returns.
	c) All Other Fees:
		2004	none
		2005	none

Adviser and affiliates (includes only fees for non-audit services billed to the adviser and affiliates for engagements that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Registrant and were subject to the pre-approval policies described below):
	a) Not Applicable
	b) Audit-Related Fees:
		2004	none
		2005	none
	c) Tax Fees:
		2004	none
		2005	none
	d) All Other Fees:
		2004	none
		2005	none

The Registrant’s Audit Committee will pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services that the Committee considers compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence. The pre-approval requirement will extend to all non-audit services provided to the Registrant, the investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Registrant. The Committee will not delegate its responsibility to pre-approve these services to the investment adviser. The Committee may delegate to one or more Committee members the authority to review and pre-approve audit and permissible non-audit services. Actions taken under any such delegation will be reported to the full Committee at its next meeting. The pre-approval requirement is waived with respect to non-audit services if certain conditions are met. The pre-approval requirement was not waived for any of the non-audit services listed above provided to the Registrant, adviser, and affiliates.

Aggregate non-audit fees paid to the Registrant’s auditors, including fees for all services billed to the Registrant and the adviser and affiliates that provide ongoing services to the Registrant were $5,000 for fiscal year 2004 and $26,000 for fiscal year 2005. The non-audit services represented by these amounts were brought to the attention of the Committee and considered to be compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence.

ITEM 6 - Schedule of Investments

Not applicable, insofar as the schedule is included as part of the report to shareholders filed under Item 1 of this Form.

ITEM 10 - Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which shareholders may recommend nominees to the Registrant's Board of Trustees since the Registrant last submitted a proxy statement to its shareholders. The procedures are as follows. The Registrant has a Nominating and Governance Committee comprised solely of persons who are not considered ‘‘interested persons’’ of the Registrant within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The committee periodically reviews such issues as the Board’s composition, responsibilities, committees, compensation and other relevant issues, and recommends any appropriate changes to the full Board of Trustees. While the committee normally is able to identify from its own resources an ample number of qualified candidates, it will consider shareholder suggestions of persons to be considered as nominees to fill future vacancies on the Board. Such suggestions must be sent in writing to the Nominating and Governance Committee of the Registrant, c/o the Registrant’s Secretary, and must be accompanied by complete biographical and occupational data on the prospective nominee, along with a written consent of the prospective nominee for consideration of his or her name by the Nominating and Governance Committee.

ITEM 11 - Controls and Procedures

(a) The Registrant’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded, based on their evaluation of the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 30a-3 under the Investment Company Act of 1940), that such controls and procedures are adequate and reasonably designed to achieve the purposes described in paragraph (c) of such rule.

(b) There were no changes in the Registrant’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 30a-3(d) under the Investment Company Act of 1940) that occurred during the Registrant’s second fiscal quarter of the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 12 - Exhibits

(a)(1) The Code of Ethics that is the subject of the disclosure required by Item 2 is attached as an exhibit hereto.

(a)(2) The certifications required by Rule 30a-2 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 are attached as exhibits hereto.
