LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
November 8, 2001

Dear Shareholder:

This report provides investment results, performance information and market
outlook for ACM Managed Dollar Income Fund (the "Fund") for the annual reporting
period ended September 30, 2001.

Investment Objective and Policies

This closed-end fund is designed for investors who seek high current income and
capital appreciation. To achieve this objective, it invests primarily in
high-yielding, high-risk U.S. and non-U.S. fixed income securities, denominated
in U.S. dollars, that we expect to benefit from improving economic and credit
fundamentals.

Investment Results

The following table shows how the Fund performed over the six- and 12-month
periods ended September 30, 2001. For comparison, we have included a composite
benchmark consisting of 65% of the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Plus
(JPM EMBI+)--a standard measure of the performance of a basket of unmanaged
emerging market debt securities--and 35% of the Credit Suisse First Boston High
Yield Index (CSFB HYI)--a standard measure of the performance of a basket of
unmanaged U.S. high yield debt securities. We compare the Fund's performance to
this composite benchmark because it more closely resembles the composition of
the Fund's portfolio.

      rated, fixed income, non-convertible U.S. dollar-denominated securities
      meeting certain criteria developed by Credit Suisse designed to enable the
      index to reflect the high yield market. The composite is from inception of
      the JPM EMBI+, which was 12/31/93. The indices are unmanaged and reflect
      no fees or expenses. An investor cannot invest directly in an index, and
      its results are not indicative of any specific investment, including ACM
      Managed Dollar Income Fund.

      Additional investment results appear on pages 6 - 8.

The Fund underperformed relative to its composite benchmark for both the six-
and 12-month periods ended September 30, 2001 primarily due to our emerging
market security selection. Additionally, the Fund's use of leverage, during a
time when asset prices declined, also contributed to the Fund's
underperformance.

As discussed in more detail in the market overview section, within the Fund's
emerging market allocation, our overweight position in Argentina significantly
hurt performance as concerns about the country's economic viability increased.
Contributing positively to performance was our underweight position in Brazil
and our overweight position in Russia.

Within the Fund's high yield allocation, our weighting in the telecommunication
and cable sectors detracted from performance, but this was more than offset by
our strong security selection. Over the past six-months, we have focused the
Fund on defensive sectors such as utilities, domestic cable and gaming.
Traditional cyclical sectors such as automotive, steel and metals have been
underweighted.

Market Overview

Global economic growth continued to decelerate since the last reporting period
six months ago. In the U.S., restrained capital spending, inventory reductions,
shrinking investment and weaker export performance significantly slowed the
economy. The events of September 11 had a severe impact on U.S. consumer and
investor confidence, key ingredients that were required for recovery. With the
economy slowing and underlying inflationary pressures subdued, the U.S. Federal
Reserve lowered interest rates 200 basis points from 5.00% to 3.00% and in late
May Congress passed a stimulative tax package. (On October 2 and November 6, the
Federal Reserve again reduced interest rates a total of 100 basis points to
2.00%--the lowest in four decades.) Growth for the second quarter of 2001 slowed
to 0.3%, and reported preliminary growth for the third quarter contracted to
-0.4%.

The emerging-market sector, as measured by the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond
Index Plus, produced a return of -1.92% during the six-month period due to poor
performance in Argentina and spillover weakness in Brazil. Although other
emerging market regions posted positive returns, Argentina and Brazil
significantly dampened the overall composite return as together they represent a
40% weight within the composite. The reporting period saw a wide divergence
between

Latin countries which returned -7.10% and non-Latin countries which returned
11.77%.

Concern about Argentina's ability to continue servicing its debt caused the
country's bond prices to decline and resulted in the poorest individual country
return within the index, -19.81%. The country's credit rating was lowered twice
in the month of July. However, Argentina recouped some of its losses and was the
best monthly performer in August with the announcement of an International
Monetary Fund (IMF) bailout package and indication that the U.S. Treasury would
support Argentina.

However, at the time of this report, Argentina announced that the government
will seek to reduce financing costs on $95 billion of debt in an effort to avoid
outright default. Investors remain concerned, however, that Argentina's debt
proposal effectively constitutes a default. The country's economic officials
announced they would need to reduce annual debt interest payments between $3-$4
billion a year to free up resources to restart the country's ailing economy, now
in its fourth year of recession. To help spur the economy, the government is
implementing a range of tax cuts and other measures to spark spending, while
also pressing the 23 provinces to accept a cut in their guaranteed monthly
transfers.

Weakness in neighboring Brazil also dampened overall returns in the emerging
markets resulting in the second-worst individual country return at -8.03%.
Political uncertainty caused by recently held elections, coupled with prospects
for tighter and more expensive financing conditions, weakened the Brazilian real
(Brazil's currency) and renewed concerns about the country's large financing
needs. Turkey, which had posted weak results early in the year amidst a
financial crisis in February, rebounded, up 14.23%, as the IMF and World Bank
provided a favorable financing package. Other individual countries posting
positive returns included Russia at 18.73%, which continues to benefit from
economic reforms, positive growth and friendlier ties to the U.S.; Colombia at
11.67%; and Qatar at 6.16%.

The high-yield market, as represented by the Credit Suisse First Boston High
Yield Index, returned -4.57% for the six-month period. Market sentiment improved
dramatically after the Federal Reserve lowered interest rates in January and
issuers took advantage of the funding window. However, weakness in the equity
markets and the troubled telecommunications sector dampened overall returns
throughout the year.

Investors reacted to the September 11 attacks by selling high yield securities.
High yield securities reached 1000 basis points in yield over Treasuries by the
end of the reporting period.

Non-cyclical sectors outperformed cyclicals. The best performing industries for
the period included finance, food & drug, food/tobacco, health care,
pharmaceutical, housing, service and utility. The telecommunications and
wireless communications sectors, as well as the consumer durable sectors,

LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
----------------------

underperformed the broader market. Inflows into high yield improved in 2001 and
high yield issuance rebounded from a five-year low of $41.6 billion in 2000 to
$60 billion during the first half of 2001. However, default rates remained high,
reflecting the low financial flexibility of highly leveraged companies.

Outlook

The events of September 11 have triggered a change in the risk profile of the
U.S. economy, with a recession now imminent. We believe the unemployment rate
will climb over the next several months, weakening consumer confidence further.
We also believe that the Federal Reserve may ease rates further, keeping the
yield curve steep. Further fiscal stimulus in the form of additional tax cuts
and increased government spending is also anticipated. While the economic
recovery will be delayed until the spring of 2002, we believe it will be more
robust as a result of the increased monetary and fiscal stimulus.

With these short-term difficulties ahead of us, in the high yield sector we will
remain relatively defensive, emphasizing sectors such as domestic cable,
utilities and health care, which have historically outperformed in down markets.
We will move aggressively into cyclical industry sectors such as automotive,
paper and chemicals, once we see evidence of a recovery on the horizon. We will
maintain our hotel and airline holdings, given their current valuations. We will
also maintain our holdings in the gaming industry, as we believe this sector
will rebound in the long-term, especially given its historic ability to generate
cash flows.

The slowing global economy and increased risk aversion will present challenges
to the emerging market sector. We believe, however, that near-term deterioration
in economic conditions will in time be supplanted by the effects of a massive
fiscal stimulus and extremely accommodative monetary policy. While the recent
attacks in the U.S. will have a negative effect on global growth and the
emerging markets, the strengthening of relations between the U.S. and its
allies may have a positive effect. The attacks have also increased the
likelihood of continued G7 support for emerging economies. We are also
encouraged by recent signs that the emerging market class has shown signs of
de-coupling from the problems in Argentina as the effects in other countries
have so far been muted.

We are currently reducing the Fund's exposure to Argentina due to the increased
risk of default. We are, however, increasing our exposure to neighboring Brazil
and maintaining our holdings in Mexico. We are also maintaining our overweight
position in Russia due to its positive economic outlook and increased
geopolitical stature, but do remain concerned about the potential impact that a
drop in oil prices could have on the country's near-term cash flow. We are
reducing our exposure to Venezuela, which is particularly dependent on higher
oil prices. We will continue to monitor troubled regions closely while looking
for opportunities.

This chart illustrates the total value of an assumed $10,000 investment in ACM
Managed Dollar Income Fund at net asset value (NAV) (from 10/31/93 to 9/30/01)
as compared to the performance of an appropriate composite. The composite
represents 65% of the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Plus (JPM EMBI+)
and 35% of the Credit Suisse First Boston High Yield Index (CSFB HYI). The
composite is from inception of the JPM EMBI+, which was 12/31/93. For the period
10/31/93 through 9/30/94, the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index was used
in place of the JPM EMBI+. All other periods used the composite benchmark. The
chart assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Past performance
is not indicative of future results, and is not representative of future gain or
loss in capital value or dividend income.

The JPM EMBI+ is composed of dollar-denominated restructured sovereign bonds; a
large percentage of the index is made up of Brady bonds. The CSFB HYI is a
measure of lower-rated, fixed income, non convertible U.S. dollar-denominated
securities meeting certain criteria developed by Credit Suisse designed to
enable the index to reflect the high yield market. The indices are unmanaged and
reflect no fees or expenses. When comparing ACM Managed Dollar Income Fund to
the composite shown above, you should note that no charges or expenses are
reflected in the performance of the composite. An investor cannot invest
directly in an index, and its results are not indicative of any specific
investment, including ACM Managed Dollar Income Fund.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2001

NOTE A

Significant Accounting Policies

ACM Managed Dollar Income Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") was incorporated under the
laws of the State of Maryland on August 10, 1993 and is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as a non-diversified, closed-end management
investment company. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States which
requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and
amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies followed by the Fund.

1. Security Valuation

Portfolio securities traded on a national securities exchange or on a foreign
securities exchange (other than foreign securities exchanges whose operations
are similar to those of the United States over-the-counter market) are generally
valued at the last reported sale price or, if there was no sale on such day, the
last bid price quoted on such day. If no bid prices are quoted, then the
security is valued at the mean of the bid and asked prices as obtained on that
day from one or more dealers regularly making a market in that security.
Securities traded on the over-the-counter market, and securities listed on a
foreign securities exchange whose operations are similar to the United States
over-the-counter market and securities listed on a national securities exchange
whose primary market is believed to be over-the-counter are valued at the mean
of the closing bid and asked price provided by two or more dealers regularly
making a market in such securities. U.S. government securities and other debt
securities which mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost unless
this method does not represent fair value. Securities for which market
quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in
good faith by, or in accordance with procedures approved by, the Board of
Directors. Fixed income securities may be valued on the basis of prices provided
by a pricing service when such prices are believed to reflect the fair market
value of such securities. Listed put and call options purchased by the Fund are
valued at the last sale price. If there has been no sale on that day, such
securities will be valued at the closing bid prices on that day.

2. Taxes

It is the Fund's policy to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all
of its investment company taxable income and net realized gains, if applicable,
to shareholders. Therefore, no provisions for federal income or excise taxes are
required.

3. Investment Income and Investment Transactions

Interest income is accrued daily. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date. Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the investments are
purchased or sold. Investment gains and losses are deter-

                                                   NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                                   -----------------------------

mined on the identified cost basis. The Fund accretes discounts as adjustments
to interest income.

4. Dividends and Distributions

Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend
date. Income and capital gains distributions are determined in accordance with
federal tax regulations and may differ from those determined in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. To the extent
these differences are permanent, such amounts are reclassified within the
capital accounts based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary
differences do not require such reclassification.

During the current fiscal year, permanent differences, primarily due to a tax
return of capital, resulted in a net decrease in distributions in excess of net
investment income and a corresponding decrease in additional paid-in-capital.
This reclassification had no effect on net assets.

5. Change in Accounting Principle

In November 2000, the American Institute of Certified Public Account ants
(AICPA) issued a revised version of its Audit and Accounting Guide for
Investment Companies (the "Guide"), which is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2000. The Guide will require the Fund to amortize
premium and discount on fixed-income securities. Upon adoption, the Fund will be
required to record a cumulative effect adjustment to reflect the amortization of
premiums. The adjustment will reduce net investment income and increase
unrealized appreciation on securities by the same amount, and therefore will not
impact total net assets. At this time, the analysis of adjustment has not been
completed. Although this adjustment affects the financial statements, adoption
of this principle will not effect the amount of distributions paid to
shareholders, because the Fund determines its required distributions under
Federal income tax laws.

NOTE B

Advisory and Administrative Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates

Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund pays Alliance
Capital Management, L.P. (the "Adviser") an advisory fee equal to an annualized
rate of .75 of 1% of the average adjusted weekly net assets of the Fund during
the month.

Under the terms of a Shareholder Inquiry Agency Agreement with Alliance Global
Investor Services, Inc. (AGIS) (formerly Alliance Fund Services, Inc.), an
affiliate of the Adviser, the Fund reimburses AGIS for costs relating to
servicing phone inquiries for the Fund. The Fund reimbursed AGIS $2,000 during
the year ended September 30, 2001.

Under the terms of an Administration Agreement, the Fund pays Princeton
Administrators, L.P. (the "Administrator") a monthly fee equal to the
annualized rate of .15 of 1% of the Fund's average adjusted weekly net assets of
the Fund during the month. The Administrator prepares financial

and regulatory reports for the Fund and provides clerical and other services.

NOTE C

Investment Transactions

Purchases and sales of investment securities (excluding short-term investments,
options and U.S. government securities) aggregated $273,400,402 and
$280,647,671, respectively, for the year ended September 30, 2001. There were no
purchases or sales of U.S. government or government agency obligations for the
year ended September 30, 2001.

At September 30, 2001, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes
was $227,881,880. Accordingly, gross unrealized appreciation of investments was
$4,591,653 and gross unrealized depreciation of investments was $39,847,392,
resulting in net unrealized depreciation of $35,255,739.

At September 30, 2001, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $92,990,518
of which $57,455,739 expires in the year 2007, $24,635,181 expires in the year
2008 and $10,899,598 expires in the year 2009.

Capital losses incurred after October 31 ("post-October" losses) within the
taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Fund's next
taxable year. The Fund incurred and will elect to defer net capital losses of
$25,917,547 during fiscal year 2001. To the extent they are so used, future
capital gains will not be distributed to shareholders until they exceed
available capital loss carryovers.

1. Options Transactions

For hedging and investment purposes, the Fund may purchase and write (sell) put
and call options on U.S. and foreign government securities that are traded on
U.S. and foreign securities exchanges and over-the-counter markets.

The risk associated with purchasing an option is that the Fund pays a premium
whether or not the option is exercised. Additionally, the Fund bears the risk of
loss of the premium and change in market value should the counterparty not
perform under the contract. Put and call options purchased are accounted for in
the same manner as portfolio securities. The cost of securities acquired through
the exercise of call options is increased by premiums paid. The proceeds from
securities sold through the exercise of put options are decreased by the
premiums paid.

When the Fund writes an option, the premium received by the Fund is recorded as
a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the
option written. Premiums received from writing options which expire unexercised
are recorded by the Fund on the expiration date as realized gains from options
written. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a
closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated
as a realized gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the
closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised,
the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in
determining whether the Fund has realized a gain or loss. If a put option is
exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the security purchased by the
Fund. In

writing an option, the Fund bears the market risk of an unfavorable
change in the price of the security underlying the written option. Exercise of
an option written by the Fund could result in the Fund selling or buying a
security at a price different from the current market value.

There were no transactions in options written for the year ended September 30,
2001.

2. Interest Rate Swap Agreements

The Fund may enter into interest rate swaps on sovereign debt obligations to
protect itself from interest rate fluctuations on the underlying debt
instruments and for investment purposes. A swap is an agreement that obligates
two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals based upon
or calculated by reference to changes in specified prices or rates for a
specified amount of an underlying asset. The payment flows are usually netted
against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to the other.

Risks may arise as a result of the failure of another party to the swap contract
to comply with the terms of the swap contract. The loss incurred by the failure
of a counterparty is generally limited to the net interest payment to be
received by the Fund, and/or the termination value at the end of the contract.
Therefore the Fund considers the creditworthiness of each counterparty to a swap
contract in evaluating potential credit risk. Additionally, risks may arise from
unanticipated movements in interest rates or in the value of the underlying
securities.

The Fund records a net receivable or payable on a daily basis for the net
interest income or expense expected to be received or paid in the interest
period. Net interest received or paid on these contracts is recorded as interest
income (or as an offset to interest income). Fluctuations in the value of swap

NOTE F

Concentration of Risk

Investing in securities of foreign companies and foreign governments involves
special risks, which include the possibility of future political and economic
development, which could adversely affect the value of such securities.
Moreover, securities of many foreign companies and foreign governments and their
markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of
comparable U.S. companies and the United States Government. The Fund invests in
the sovereign debt obligations of countries that are considered emerging market
countries at the time of purchase. Therefore, the Fund is susceptible to
governmental factors and economic and debt restructuring developments adversely
affecting the economies of these emerging market countries. In addition, these
debt obligations may be less liquid and subject to greater volatility than debt
obligations of more developed countries.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

(a)   Based on average shares outstanding.

(b)   Total investment return is calculated assuming a purchase of common stock
      on the opening of the first day and a sale on the closing of the last day
      of the period reported. Dividends and distributions, if any, are assumed
      for purposes of this calculation, to be reinvested at prices obtained
      under the Fund's dividend reinvestment plan. Generally, total investment
      return based on net asset value will be higher than the total investment
      return based on market value in periods where there is an increase in the
      discount or a decrease in the premium of the market value to the net asset
      value from the beginning to the end of such periods. Conversely, total
      investment return based on net asset value will be lower than total
      investment return based on market value in periods where there is a
      decrease in the discount or an increase in the premium of the market value
      to the net asset value from the beginning to the end of such periods.
      Total investment return calculated for a period of less than one year is
      not annualized.

(c)   Net interest expense of 1.62%, 1.61%, 1.35%, 1.53%, and 1.35%,
      respectively, on loan agreements (See Note E).

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of ACM Managed Dollar Income Fund,
Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of ACM
Managed Dollar Income Fund, Inc. (the "Fund"), including the portfolio of
investments, as of September 30, 2001, and the related statements of operations
and cash flows for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets
for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights
for each of the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and
financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and
financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included
confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2001, by correspondence
with the custodian and others. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ACM
Managed Dollar Income Fund, Inc. at September 30, 2001, the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in its net
assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial
highlights for each of the indicated periods, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
(unaudited)

Shareholders whose shares are registered in their own names may elect to be
participants in the Dividend Reinvestment and Cash Purchase Plan (the "Plan"),
pursuant to which dividends and capital gain distributions to shareholders will
be paid in or reinvested in additional shares of the Fund. State Street Bank and
Trust Company (the "Agent") will act as agent for participants under the Plan.
Shareholders whose shares are held in the name of a broker or nominee should
contact such broker or nominee to determine whether or how they may participate
in the Plan.

If the Board declares an income distribution or determines to make a capital
gain distribution payable either in shares or in cash, as holders of the Common
Stock may have elected, non-participants in the Plan will receive cash and
participants in the Plan will receive the equivalent in shares of Common Stock
of the Fund valued as follows:

      (i) If the shares of Common Stock are trading at net asset value or at a
      premium above net asset value at the time of valuation, the Fund will
      issue new shares at the greater of net asset value or 95% of the then
      current market price.

      (ii) If the shares of Common Stock are trading at a discount from net
      asset value at the time of valuation, the Plan Agent will receive the
      dividend or distribution in cash and apply it to the purchase of the
      Fund's shares of Common Stock in the open market on the New York Stock
      Exchange or elsewhere, for the participants' accounts. Such purchases will
      be made on or shortly after the payment date for such dividend or
      distribution and in no event more than 30 days after such date except
      where temporary curtailment or suspension of purchase is necessary to
      comply with Federal securities laws. If, before the Plan agent has
      completed its purchases, the market price exceeds the net asset value of a
      share of Common Stock, the average purchase price per share paid by the
      Plan agent may exceed the net asset value of the Fund's shares of Common
      Stock, resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if the dividend
      or distribution had been paid in shares issued by the Fund.

The Agent will maintain all shareholders' accounts in the Plan and furnish
written confirmation of all transactions in the account, including information
needed by shareholders for tax records. Shares in the account of each Plan
participant will be held by the Agent in non-certificate form in the name of the
participant, and each shareholder's proxy will include those shares purchased or
received pursuant to the Plan.

There will be no charges with respect to shares issued directly by the Fund to
satisfy the dividend reinvestment requirements. However, each participant will
pay a pro-rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the
Agent's open market purchases of shares. In each case, the cost per share of
shares purchased for each shareholder's account will be the average cost,
including brokerage commissions,

of any shares purchased in the open market plus the cost of any shares issued by
the Fund.

The automatic reinvestment of dividends and distributions will not relieve
participants of any income taxes that may be payable (or required to be
withheld) on dividends and distributions.

Experience under the Plan may indicate that changes are desirable. Accordingly,
the Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan as applied to any
voluntary cash payments made and any dividend or distribution paid subsequent to
written notice of the change sent to participants in the Plan at least 90 days
before the record date for such dividend or distribution. The Plan may also be
amended or terminated by the Agent on at least 90 days written notice to
participants in the Plan. All correspondence concerning the Plan should be
directed to the Agent at State Street Bank and Trust Company, P.O. Box 366,
Boston, Massachusetts 02101.

Since the filing of the most recent amendment to the Fund's registration
statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, there have been (i) no
material changes in the Fund's investment objectives or policies, (ii) no
changes to the Fund's charter or by-laws that would delay or prevent a change of
control of the Fund, (iii) no material changes in the principal risk factors
associated with investment in the Fund, and (iv) no change in the person
primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's portfolio, who
is Wayne D. Lyski, the President of the Fund.
