DIMENSIONAL INVESTING Dimensional Fund Advisors strives to deliver the returns of capital markets and add value through resourceful trading. The firm departs from the rules and rigidity of traditional indexing and avoids the futile and cost-generating activity of stock picking and market timing. Instead, we focus on the dimensions of capital markets that reward investors and we deliver them as intelligently and effectively as possible. On the firm's twenty-fifth anniversary, it pays to look back at the performance of asset classes over a variety of different climates. Through good times and bad, clients who stayed the course not only captured asset class returns across the spectrum but in many cases added value over traditional indexes through Dimensional's engineering and trading infrastructure. A look through our annual reports gives you a sense of the breadth of our strategy line. As daunting as this variety may seem, all the strategies are easily understood if you look at the simple dimensions that drive returns. Academic research has documented that, over the long term, small cap stocks outperform large cap stocks and that value stocks outperform growth stocks. These returns seem to be compensation for risk. In fixed income, risk is well described by bond maturity and credit quality. Dimensional's vehicles deliberately target specific risk and return trade-offs. The portfolios are diversified and painstakingly designed to work together in your total investment plan.

DFA INVESTMENT DIMENSIONS GROUP INC. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS INTERNATIONAL EQUITY MARKET REVIEW YEAR ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2005 International equity markets had broadly positive returns for the year under review. When expressed in local currencies, prices rose strongly in all of the largest country constituents of the MSCI EAFE Index. Net returns were diminished considerably by appreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to the euro, Japanese yen, Swiss franc, British pound, Australian dollar and Swedish krona. Overall, currency exchange rate changes negatively impacted returns for U.S. dollar-based investors: total return for the MSCI EAFE Index (net dividends) was 27.48% in local currency and 13.27% in U.S. dollars. % TOTAL RETURNS FOR YEAR ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2005 [Download Table] LOCAL CURRENCY U.S. DOLLAR TEN LARGEST DEVELOPED MARKETS RETURN RETURN ----------------------------- -------- ----------- United Kingdom (net dividends) 19.09% 7.72% Japan (net dividends) 41.66% 21.55% France 25.50% 11.33% Switzerland 38.51% 19.87% Germany 26.12% 11.88% Netherlands 29.13% 14.55% Australia 25.56% 19.79% Italy 19.84% 6.30% Spain 24.16% 10.12% Sweden 27.30% 6.03% ---------- Gross returns unless otherwise noted.

Returns in emerging markets were higher, on average, than in developed country markets, although results varied widely among individual countries. For the year under review, total returns were 33.12% for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (gross dividends), and 13.27% for the MSCI EAFE Index (net dividends). % TOTAL RETURNS FOR YEAR ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2005 [Download Table] TOTAL RETURNS COUNTRY (U.S. $) ------- -------- Argentina 67.41% Brazil 73.90% Thailand 4.11% Chile 30.93% Indonesia 6.11% Hungary 28.07% Israel 32.85% Poland 34.73% Taiwan 6.89% Mexico 53.97% Malaysia 0.54% Philippines 22.52% Turkey 80.71% South Korea 47.97% ---------- Source: Morgan Stanley Capital International MASTER-FEEDER STRUCTURE The portfolio described below, called a "Feeder Fund", does not buy individual securities directly; instead, the portfolio invests in a corresponding fund called a "Master Fund". The Master Fund, in turn, purchases stocks, bonds, and/or other securities. EMERGING MARKETS VALUE PORTFOLIO The Emerging Markets Value Portfolio (the "Portfolio") seeks to capture the returns of value stocks in selected emerging markets by purchasing shares of the Dimensional Emerging Markets Value Fund Inc., (the "Master Fund") which invests in such stocks. The investment strategy employs a disciplined, quantitative approach, emphasizing broad diversification and consistent exposure to emerging markets value stocks, but does not attempt to track closely a specific equity index. As of November 30, 2005, the Master Fund held 1,471 stocks in 17 countries. Target country weights in the Master Fund are determined by the relative free-float adjusted market capitalization of eligible securities within each country. Target country weights are also capped at a ceiling set by the manager to improve portfolio diversification and limit potential risks associated with individual countries. Free-float adjustment excludes the share capital of a company that is not freely available for trading in the public equity markets by international investors. Throughout the year ended November 30, 2005, the Master Fund was essentially fully invested in equities throughout the year: cash equivalents averaged less than 1.0% of the Master Fund's assets. As a result of the Master Fund's diversified investment approach, performance was determined principally by broad structural trends in emerging country stock markets, rather than the behavior of a limited number of stocks. For the year ended November 30, 2005, emerging markets value stocks outperformed developed country stocks but underperformed core emerging markets strategies. Total returns were 13.27% for the MSCI EAFE Index (net dividends), 33.12% for the MSCI Emerging Markets Index (gross dividends), and 31.06% for the Emerging Markets Value Portfolio. Relative to the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, underperformance of the Portfolio was due primarily to greater exposure to stocks with market capitalizations under $700 million and to portfolio composition differences in Latin America. The average weight for stocks with market caps under $700 million which underperformed the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, was 29% for the Master Fund compared to 3% for the Index. Securities from Latin America 3

produced a return of 39.71% for the Master Fund compared to 60.47% for the Index. To a lesser extent, underperformance was attributable due to the Master Fund's greater exposure to stocks with pronounced value characteristics, defined as a relatively high book-to-market ratio.

DFA INVESTMENT DIMENSIONS GROUP INC. EMERGING MARKETS VALUE PORTFOLIO DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES (UNAUDITED) The following Expense Table is shown so that you can understand the impact of fees on your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports, among others. Operating expenses, legal and audit services, which are deducted from a fund's gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund. A fund's expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing fees (in dollars) of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period. The Expense Table below illustrates your fund's costs in two ways. ACTUAL FUND RETURN This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses after fee waivers that you paid over the period. The "Ending Account Value" shown is derived from the fund's actual return, and "Expenses Paid During Period" shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, a $7,500 account value divided by $1,000=7.5), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period." HYPOTHETICAL 5% ANNUAL RETURN This section is intended to help you compare your fund's costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had an annual return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case, because the return used is not the fund's actual return, the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the SEC requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% annual return. You can assess your fund's cost by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs (if any). The "Annualized Expense Ratio" represents the actual expenses for the six month period indicated.

The expenses shown reflect the direct expenses of the feeder fund and the indirect payment of the feeder fund's portion of the expenses of its master fund. 6

DFA INVESTMENT DIMENSIONS GROUP INC. EMERGING MARKETS VALUE PORTFOLIO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS A. ORGANIZATION: DFA Investment Dimensions Group Inc. (the "Group") is an open-end management investment company whose shares are offered, without a sales charge, generally to institutional investors and clients of registered investment advisors. The Group offers forty-one portfolios, one of which, the Emerging Markets Value Portfolio (the "Portfolio") is included in this report. Of the remaining portfolios, thirty-nine are presented in separate reports and one has not yet commenced operations. The Portfolio invests all of its assets in the Dimensional Emerging Markets Value Fund Inc. (the "Fund"). At November 30, 2005, the Portfolio owned 86% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. The financial statements of the Fund are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Portfolio. B. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Such policies are consistently followed by the Group in preparation of its financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be material. 1. SECURITY VALUATION: The shares of the Fund held by the Portfolio are valued at its respective daily net asset value. 2. DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN: Each eligible Director of the Group may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). Under the Plan, effective January 1, 2002, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Director. These deferred amounts may be treated as though such amounts had been invested in shares of the following funds: U.S. Large Cap Value Portfolio, U.S. Micro Cap Portfolio, DFA International Value Portfolio, Emerging Markets Portfolio and/or DFA Two-Year Global Fixed Income Portfolio. Contributions made under the Plan and the change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and income, are included in Directors' Fees and Expenses. At November 30, 2005, the total liability (in thousands) for deferred compensation to Directors is included in Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities in the amount of $25. Each Director has the option to receive their distribution of proceeds in one of the following methods upon one year's notice: lump sum, annual installments over a period of agreed upon years, or semi-annual installments over a period of agreed upon years. As of November 30, 2005, none of the Directors have requested distribution of proceeds. 3. OTHER: Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Expenses directly attributable to the Portfolio are directly charged. Common expenses of the Group are allocated using methods approved by the Board of Directors, generally based on average net assets. C. INVESTMENT ADVISOR: Dimensional Fund Advisors Inc. ("Dimensional" or the "Advisor") provides administrative services to the Portfolio, including supervision of services provided by others, providing information to the shareholders and the Board of Directors, and other administrative services. The Advisor provides investment advisory services to the Fund. For the 12
N-CSR17th Page of 85TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 17th
year ended November 30, 2005, the Portfolio's administrative services fees were accrued daily and paid monthly to the Advisor based on an effective annual rate of 0.40 of 1% of average daily net assets. FEES PAID TO OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS: Certain Officers and Directors of the Advisor are also Officers and Directors of the Group; however, such Officers and Directors (with the exception of the Chief Compliance Officer ("CCO")) receive no compensation from the Group. For the year ended November 30, 2005, the total related amounts paid by the Group under this arrangement were $107 (in thousands). The total related amount paid by the Portfolio is included in Other Expenses on the Statement of Operations. D. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: The Portfolio has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code for federal income tax purposes and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and net capital gains to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes. The tax character of dividends and distributions declared and paid during the years ended November 30, 2005 and November 30, 2004 were as follows (amounts in thousands): [Download Table] NET INVESTMENT INCOME AND SHORT-TERM LONG-TERM CAPITAL GAINS CAPITAL GAINS TOTAL --------------- ------------- -------------- 2005 $ 32,792 $ 3,733 $ 36,525 2004 12,625 803 13,428 At November 30, 2005, the components of distributable earnings/(accumulated losses) were as follows (amounts in thousands): [Download Table] UNDISTRIBUTED TOTAL NET NET INVESTMENT DISTRIBUTABLE INCOME AND UNDISTRIBUTED EARNINGS/ SHORT-TERM LONG-TERM (ACCUMULATED CAPITAL GAINS CAPITAL GAINS LOSSES) -------------- ------------- -------------- $ 5,093 $ 17,974 $ 23,067 For federal income tax purposes, the Portfolio measures its capital loss carryforwards annually at November 30, its fiscal year end. Capital loss carryforwards may be carried forward and applied against future capital gains. As of November 30, 2005, the Portfolio had no capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains. At November 30, 2005, the total cost and aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and (depreciation) of securities for federal income tax purposes were different from amounts reported for financial reporting purposes (amounts in thousands): [Download Table] NET UNREALIZED FEDERAL UNREALIZED UNREALIZED APPRECIATION/ TAX COST APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION) (DEPRECIATION) ------------ -------------- -------------- -------------- $ 1,422,694 $ 670,407 $ (14,827) $ 655,580 E.

F. LINE OF CREDIT: The Portfolio, together with other Dimensional-advised portfolios, has entered into a $50 million unsecured discretionary line of credit effective June 2005 with its domestic custodian bank. Each portfolio is permitted to borrow, subject to its investment limitations, up to a maximum of $50 million, as long as total borrowings under the line of credit do not exceed $50 million in the aggregate. Borrowings under the line of credit are charged interest at the then current federal funds rate plus 1%. Each portfolio is individually, and not jointly liable for its particular advances under the line of credit. There is no commitment fee on the unused portion of the line of credit. The agreement for the discretionary line of credit may be terminated by either party at any time. The agreement for the line of credit expires on June 27, 2006. There were no borrowings by the Portfolio under the line of credit with the domestic custodian bank during the year ended November 30, 2005. The Portfolio, together with other Dimensional-advised portfolios, has also entered into an additional $150 million unsecured line of credit effective April 3, 2005 with its international custodian bank. Each portfolio is permitted to borrow, subject to investment limitations, up to a maximum of $150 million, as long as total borrowings under the line of credit do not exceed $150 million in the aggregate. Each portfolio is individually, and not jointly liable for its particular advances under the line of credit. Borrowings under the line of credit are charged interest at rates agreed to by the parties at the time of borrowing. There is no commitment fee on the unused line of credit. The agreement for the line of credit expires on April 2, 2006. There were no borrowings by the Portfolio under the line credit with the international custodian bank during the year ended November 30, 2005. G. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS: In the normal course of business, the Group enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnification. The Group's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Group and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Group expects the risk of loss to be remote. H. OTHER: On November 30, 2005, one shareholder held approximately 28% of the outstanding shares of the Portfolio. One or more of the shareholders may be omnibus accounts, which typically hold shares for the benefit of several other underlying investors. 14

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF EMERGING MARKETS VALUE PORTFOLIO AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF DFA INVESTMENT DIMENSIONS GROUP INC. In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Emerging Markets Value Portfolio (one of the portfolios constituting DFA Investment Dimensions Group Inc., hereafter referred to as the "Portfolio") at November 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 the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, 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 Portfolio'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 at November 30, 2005 by correspondence with the transfer agent of the investee fund, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

DIMENSIONAL EMERGING MARKETS VALUE FUND INC. DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES (UNAUDITED) The following Expense Table is shown so that you can understand the impact of fees on your investment. All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports, among others. Operating expenses, legal and audit services, which are deducted from a fund's gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund. A fund's expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing fees (in dollars) of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period. The Expense Table below illustrates your fund's costs in two ways. ACTUAL FUND RETURN This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses after fee waivers that you paid over the period. The "Ending Account Value" shown is derived from the fund's actual return, and "Expenses Paid During Period" shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, a $7,500 account value divided by $1,000=7.5), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period." HYPOTHETICAL 5% ANNUAL RETURN This section is intended to help you compare your fund's costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had an annual return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case, because the return used is not the fund's actual return, the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the SEC requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% annual return. You can assess your fund's cost by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs (if any). The "Annualized Expense Ratio" represents the actual expenses for the six month period indicated.

DIMENSIONAL EMERGING MARKETS VALUE FUND INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS A. ORGANIZATION: Dimensional Emerging Markets Value Fund Inc. (the "Fund") was organized as a closed-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Effective November 21, 1997, the Fund was reorganized as an open-end management investment company. B. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Such policies are consistently followed by the Fund in preparation of its financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be material. 1. SECURITY VALUATION: Securities held by the Fund which are listed on a securities exchange and for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price of the day or, if there is no such reported sale, at the mean between the most recent bid and asked prices. Price information on listed securities is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. Unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the mean between the quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which quotations are not readily available, or for which market quotations have become unreliable, are approved in good faith at fair value using methods approved by the Board of Directors. The Fund will also apply a fair value price in the circumstances described below. Generally, trading in foreign securities markets is completed each day at various times prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). For example, trading in the Japanese securities markets is completed each day at the close of the Tokyo Stock Exchange (generally 11:00 p.m. PT), which is fourteen hours prior to the close of the NYSE (generally 1:00 p.m. PT) and the time that the net asset value of the Fund is computed. Due to the time differences between the closings of the relevant foreign securities exchanges and the time the Fund prices its shares at the close of the NYSE, the Fund will fair value its foreign investments when it is determined that the market quotations for the foreign investments are either unreliable or not readily available. The fair value prices will attempt to reflect the impact of the U.S. financial markets' perceptions and trading activities on the Fund's foreign investments since the last closing prices of the foreign investments were calculated on their primary foreign securities markets or exchanges. For these purposes, the Board of Directors of the Fund has determined that movements in relevant indices or other appropriate market indicators, after the close of the Tokyo Stock Exchange or the London Stock Exchange, demonstrate that market quotations may be unreliable, and may trigger fair value pricing. Consequently, fair valuation of portfolio securities may occur on a daily basis. The fair value pricing by the Fund utilizes data furnished by an independent pricing service (and that data draws upon, among other information, the market values of foreign investments). The fair value prices of portfolio securities generally will be used when it is determined that the use of such prices will have a material impact on the net asset value of a Fund. When the Fund uses fair value pricing, the values assigned to the Fund's foreign investments may not be the quoted or published prices of the investments on their primary markets or exchanges. 2. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION: Securities and other assets and liabilities of the Fund whose values are initially expressed in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars using the mean between the most recently quoted bid and asked prices for the U.S. dollar as quoted by generally recognized reliable sources. Dividend and interest income and certain expenses are translated to U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange on their respective accrual dates. Receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies are marked to market based on daily exchange rates and exchange gains or losses are realized upon ultimate receipt or disbursement. The Fund does not isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates from the effect of fluctuations in the market prices of securities held whether realized or unrealized. 26
N-CSR31st Page of 85TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 31st
Realized gains or losses on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains or losses from the disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between amounts of interest, dividends and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid. 3. DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN: Each eligible Director of the Fund may elect participation in the Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). Under the Plan, effective January 1, 2002, such Directors may defer payment of a percentage of their total fees earned as a Director. These deferred amounts may be treated as though such amounts had been invested in shares of the following funds: U.S. Large Cap Value Portfolio, U.S. Micro Cap Portfolio, DFA International Value Portfolio, Emerging Markets Portfolio and/or DFA Two-Year Global Fixed Income Portfolio. Contributions made under the Plan and the change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and income, are included in Directors' Fees and Expenses. At November 30, 2005, the total liability (in thousands) for deferred compensation to Directors is included in Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities in the amount of $31. Each Director has the option to receive their distribution of proceeds in one of the following methods upon one year's notice: lump sum, annual installments over a period of agreed upon years, or semi-annual installments over a period of agreed upon years. As of November 30, 2005, none of the Directors have requested distribution of proceeds. 4. OTHER: Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. The Fund may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which it invests, with respect to its investment in issuers existing or operating in such countries. Such taxes are generally based on income earned or repatriated and capital gains realized on the sale of such investments. The Fund accrues such taxes when the related income or capital gains are earned or throughout the holding period. Some countries require governmental approval for the repatriation of investment income, capital or the proceeds of sales earned by foreign investors. In addition, if there is a deterioration in a country's balance of payments or for other reasons, a country may impose temporary restrictions on foreign capital remittances abroad. The Fund's investments in Chile are subject to governmental taxes on investment income. Such taxes are due when currencies are repatriated from the country. The Fund accrues for taxes on income as income is earned. The Fund's investments in Thailand are subject to a 15% governmental capital gains tax. Such taxes are due upon sale of individual securities. The Fund accrues for taxes on the capital gains throughout the holding period of the underlying securities. C. INVESTMENT ADVISOR: Dimensional Fund Advisors Inc. ("Dimensional" or the "Advisor") provides investment advisory services to the Fund. For the year ended November 30, 2005, the Fund paid the Advisor a fee based on an annual effective rate of 0.10 of 1% of average daily net assets. FEES PAID TO OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS: Certain Officers and Directors of the Advisor are also Officers and Directors of the Fund; however, such Officers and Directors (with the exception of the Chief Compliance Officer ("CCO")) receive no compensation from the Fund.

E. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: The Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code for federal income tax purposes and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and net capital gains to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes. Distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from these amounts determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to paid-in capital, undistributed net investment income or accumulated net realized gains, as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise. Accordingly, the following permanent differences as of November 30, 2005, primarily attributable to realized net foreign currency gains/losses and net realized gains on securities considered to be "passive foreign investment companies" were reclassified to the following accounts. These reclassifications had no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.

Capital loss carryforwards may be carried forward and applied against future capital gains. As of November 30, 2005, the Fund had no capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains. Some of the Fund's investments are in securities considered to be "passive foreign investment companies", for which any unrealized appreciation (depreciation) (mark to market) and/or realized gains are required to be included in distributable net investment income for tax purposes. During the year ended November 30, 2005, the Fund had unrealized appreciation (depreciation) (mark to market) and realized gains on the sale of passive foreign investment companies (in thousands), of $1,867 and $2,725, respectively, which are included in distributable net investment income for federal income tax purposes, accordingly, such gains have been reclassified from accumulated net realized gains to accumulated net investment income. At November 30, 2005, the total cost and aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation of securities for federal income tax purposes were different from amounts reported for financial reporting purposes (amounts in thousands): [Download Table] NET UNREALIZED FEDERAL UNREALIZED UNREALIZED APPRECIATION/ TAX COST APPRECIATION (DEPRECIATION) (DEPRECIATION) ------------ -------------- -------------- --------------- $ 1,633,627 $ 900,189 $ (93,972) $ 806,217 28

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: In accordance with the Fund's investment objectives and policies, the Fund may invest in certain financial instruments that have off-balance sheet risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the financial statements and concentrations of credit and market risk. These instruments and their significant corresponding risks are described below: 1. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS: The Fund may purchase money market instruments from financial institutions, such as banks and non-bank dealers, subject to the counterparty's agreement to repurchase them at an agreed upon date and price. The counterparty will be required on a daily basis to maintain the value of the collateral subject to the agreement at not less than the repurchase price (including accrued interest). The agreements are conditioned upon the collateral being deposited under the Federal Reserve book-entry system or with the Fund's custodian or a third party sub-custodian. In the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings. All open repurchase agreements were entered into on November 30, 2005. 2. FOREIGN MARKET RISKS: Investments in foreign markets may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investments in the United States, including the possibility of future political and economic developments and the level of foreign governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets. These markets are generally smaller, less liquid and more volatile than the major securities markets in the United States. Consequently, acquisition and disposition of securities by the Fund may be inhibited. H. LINE OF CREDIT: The Fund, together with other Dimensional-advised portfolios, has entered into a $50 million unsecured discretionary line of credit effective June 2005 with its domestic custodian bank. Each portfolio is permitted to borrow, subject to its investment limitations, up to a maximum of $50 million, as long as total borrowings under the line of credit do not exceed $50 million in the aggregate. Borrowings under the line of credit are charged interest at the then current federal funds rate plus 1%. Each portfolio is individually, and not jointly liable for its particular advances under the line of credit. There is no commitment fee on the unused portion of the line of credit. The agreement for the discretionary line of credit may be terminated by either party at any time. The agreement for the line of credit expires on June 27, 2006. There were no borrowings by the Fund under the line of credit with the domestic custodian bank during the year ended November 30, 2005. The Fund, together with other Dimensional-advised portfolios, has also entered into an additional $150 million unsecured line of credit effective April 3, 2005 with its international custodian bank. Each portfolio is permitted to borrow, subject to investment limitations, up to a maximum of $150 million, as long as total borrowings under the line of credit do not exceed $150 million in the aggregate. Each portfolio is individually, and not jointly liable for its particular advances under the line of credit. Borrowings under the line of credit are charged interest at rates agreed to by the parties at the time of borrowing. There is no commitment fee on the unused line of credit. The agreement for the line of credit expires on April 2, 2006. There were no borrowings by the Fund under the line of credit with the international custodian bank during the year ended November 30, 2005. I. CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS: In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnification. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote. 29

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF DIMENSIONAL EMERGING MARKETS VALUE FUND INC. In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the summary schedule of portfolio holdings, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Dimensional Emerging Markets Value Fund Inc. (the "Fund") at November 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 the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, 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 at November 30, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

(e)(1) Audit Committee's Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures as adopted by the Audit Committees of DFA Investment Dimensions Group Inc. Dimensional Emerging Markets Value Fund Inc. Dimensional Investment Group Inc. The DFA Investment Trust Company (together, the "Funds") The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Act") and the rules (the "Rules") adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") require that the Funds' Audit Committees (together, the "Committee") pre-approve all audit services and non-audit services provided to the Funds by their independent registered public accounting firm (the "Auditor"). The Act and the Rules also require that the Committee pre-approve all non-audit services provided by the Auditor to Dimensional Fund Advisors, Inc. ("Dimensional"), the Funds' investment advisor, and to affiliates of Dimensional that provide ongoing services to the Funds (with Dimensional, together the "Service Affiliates") if the services directly impact the Funds' operations and financial reporting. The following policies and procedures govern the ways in which the Committee will pre-approve audit and various types of non-audit services that the Auditor provides to the Funds and to Service Affiliates. These policies and procedures do not apply in the case of audit services that the Auditor provides to Service Affiliates, nor do they apply to services that an audit firm other than the Auditor provides to such entities. These policies and procedures comply with the requirements for pre-approval, but also provide a mechanism by which management of the Funds may request and secure pre-approval of audit and non-audit services in an orderly manner with minimal disruption to normal business operations. Pre-approval of non-audit services may be achieved through a combination of the procedures described in Sections C and D below. A. General 1. The Committee must pre-approve all audit services and non-audit services that the Auditor provides to the Funds.
N-CSR47th Page of 85TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 47th
2. The Committee must pre-approve any engagement of the Auditor to provide non-audit services to any Service Affiliate during the period of the Auditor's engagement to provide audit services to the Funds, if the non-audit services to the Service Affiliate directly impact the Funds' operations and financial reporting. B. Pre-Approval of Audit Services to the Funds 1. The Committee shall approve the engagement of an independent registered public accounting firm to certify the Funds' financial statements for each fiscal year (the "Engagement"). The approval of the Engagement shall not be delegated to a Designated Member (as that term is defined in Section D below). In approving the Engagement, the Committee shall obtain, review and consider sufficient information concerning the proposed Auditor to enable the Committee to make a reasonable evaluation of the Auditor's qualifications and independence. The Committee also shall consider the Auditor's proposed fees for the Engagement, in light of the scope and nature of the audit services that the Funds will receive. 2. The Committee shall report to the Boards of Directors/Trustees of the Funds (together, the "Board") regarding its approval of the Engagement and of the proposed fees for the Engagement, and the basis for such approval. 3. Unless otherwise in accordance with applicable law, the Engagement, in any event, shall require that the Auditor be selected by the vote, cast in person, of a majority of the members of the Board who are not "interested persons" of the Funds (as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940) (the "Independent Directors"). C. Pre-Approval of Non-Audit Services to the Funds and to Service Affiliates--by Types of Services 1. The Committee may pre-approve types of non-audit services to the Funds and their Service Affiliates pursuant to this Section C. 2. Annually, at such time as the Committee considers the Engagement of the Auditor, management of the Funds, in consultation with the Auditor, shall provide to the Committee, for its consideration and action, the following: (a) a list of those types of non-audit services, if any, that the Funds may request from the Auditor during the fiscal year; and (b) a list of those types of non-audit services directly impacting the Funds' operations and financial reporting that Service Affiliates may request from the Auditor during the fiscal year. 3. The lists submitted to the Committee shall describe the types of non-audit services in reasonable detail and shall include an estimated budget (or
N-CSR48th Page of 85TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 48th
budgeted range) of fees, where possible, and such other information as the Committee may request. 4. The Committee's pre-approval of the types of non-audit services submitted pursuant to this Section C shall constitute authorization for management of the Funds to utilize the Auditor for the types of non-audit services so pre-approved, if needed or desired during the fiscal year. 5. A list of the types of non-audit services pre-approved by the Committee pursuant to this Section C will be distributed to management of the Service Affiliates and the appropriate partners of the Auditor. Periodically, the Auditor will discuss with the Committee those non-audit services that have been or are being provided pursuant to this Section C. D. Pre-Approval of Non-Audit Services to the Funds and to Service Affiliates--Project-by-Project Basis 1. The Committee also may pre-approve non-audit services on a project-by-project basis pursuant to this Section D. 2. Management of the Funds, in consultation with the Auditor, may submit either to the Committee or to the Designated Member, as provided in this Section D, for their consideration and action, a pre-approval request identifying one or more non-audit service projects. The request so submitted shall describe the project(s) in reasonable detail and shall include an estimated budget (or budgeted range) of fees and such other information as the Committee or the Designated Member, as appropriate, shall request. 3. The Committee, from time to time, shall designate one or more of its members who are Independent Directors (each a "Designated Member") to consider, on the Committee's behalf, any non-audit services, whether to the Funds or to any Service Affiliate, that have not been pre-approved by the Committee. The Designated Member also shall review, on the Committee's behalf, any proposed material change in the nature or extent of any non-audit services previously approved. The Funds' management, in consultation with the Auditor, shall explain why such non-audit services or material change in non-audit services are necessary and appropriate and the anticipated costs thereof. 4. The Designated Member will review the requested non-audit services or proposed material change in such services and will either: (a) pre-approve, pre-approve subject to conditions, or disapprove any such requested services, or any proposed material change in services, whether to the Funds or to a Service Affiliate; or (b) refer such matter to the Committee for its consideration and action.
N-CSR49th Page of 85TOC1stPreviousNextBottomJust 49th
In considering any requested non-audit services or proposed material change in such services, the Designated Member's authority shall be limited to approving non-audit services or proposed material changes that do not exceed $10,000 in value. 5. The Designated Member's pre-approval (or pre-approval subject to conditions) of the requested non-audit services or proposed material change in services pursuant to this Section D shall constitute authorization for the management of the Funds or the Service Affiliate, as the case may be, to utilize the Auditor for the non-audit services so pre-approved. Any action by the Designated Member in approving a requested non-audit service shall be presented for ratification by the Committee not later than at its next scheduled meeting. If the Designated Member does not approve the Auditor providing the requested non-audit service, the matter may be presented to the full Committee for its consideration and action. E. Amendment; Annual Review 1. The Committee may amend these procedures from time to time. 2. These procedures shall be reviewed annually by the Committee. F. Recordkeeping 1. The Funds shall maintain a written record of all decisions made by the Committee or by a Designated Member pursuant to these procedures, together with appropriate supporting materials. 2. In connection with the approval of any non-audit service pursuant to the de minimis exception provided in the Rules, a record shall be made indicating that each of the conditions for this exception, as set forth in the Rules, has been satisfied. 3. A copy of these Procedures (and of any amendments to these Procedures) shall be maintained and preserved permanently in an easily accessible place. The written records referred to in paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Section F shall be maintained and preserved for six years from the end of the fiscal year in which the actions recorded were taken, for at least the first two years in an easily accessible location. (e)(2) The fees disclosed in Items 4(b), 4(c) or 4(d) were approved by the Registrant's Audit Committee but not pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X. (f) The percentage of hours expended on the principal accountant's engagement to audit the Registrant's financial statements for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2005 that were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant's full time, permanent employees was NOT greater than 50%.

(g) Aggregate Non-Audit Fees [Download Table] Fiscal Year Ended November 30, 2005: $ 161,027 Fiscal Year Ended November 30, 2004: $ 164,040 (h) The Registrant's Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the Registrant's investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant, that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence.
