Shareholder Expense Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees; to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or shareholder services fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you to understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from June 1, 2004 to November 30, 2004.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred 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 section under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses attributable to your investment during this period.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. Thus, you should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate the actual ending account balance or your expenses for the period. Rather, these figures are provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

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

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

The Federated Conservative Allocation Fund's Institutional and Select Shares had total returns of 7.00% and 6.26%, respectively, for the reporting period ended November 30, 2004. The Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index (S&P 500) 1 and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (Lehman Aggregate) 2 had total returns of 12.86% and 4.44% respectively.

MARKETS

Stock prices rose during the first three months of the reporting period before declining during the spring and summer months. The total return of the S&P 500 for December 2003 to February 2004 period was 8.67% and for the March 2004 to August 2004 period was (2.74)%. Stock prices rose again in the fall with the S&P 500 returning 6.78% for the September 2004 to November 2004 period. Foreign stock 3 returns benefited significantly from currency gains as indicated by gross returns for the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) All Country World Ex. U.S. Index 4 of 25.25% in dollars compared to 14.36% in local currency.

Interest rates fell during the first few months of the reporting period but then climbed significantly between the middle of March 2004 and early June 2004. Between March 16, 2004 and June 14, 2004, the average yield to maturity of the Lehman Aggregate increased from 3.73% to 4.94%. Interest rates were lower at the end the reporting period as indicated by the average yield to maturity of the Lehman Aggregate of 4.50%. Within the bond asset classes, high-yield bonds and foreign bonds had the highest returns. Foreign developed market bond returns also benefited from currency gains.

1 Standard & Poor's 500 Index is an unmanaged capitalization-weighted index of 500 stocks designed to measure performance of the broad domestic economy through changes in the aggregate market value of 500 stocks representing all major industries. Indexes are unmanaged and investments cannot be made directly in an index.

2 Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged index composed of securities from the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Bond Index, Mortgage Backed Securities Index, and the Asset Backed Securities Index. Total return comprises price appreciation/depreciation and income as a percentage of the original investment. Indices are rebalanced monthly by market capitalization.

3 International investing involves special risks including currency risk, increased volatility of foreign securities, political risks and differences in auditing and other financial standards.

4 MSCI All Country World Ex. U.S. Index is an unmanaged index representing 48 developed and emerging markets around the world that collectively comprise virtually all of the foreign equity stock markets.

FUND

The asset allocation of the fund is set relative to a neutral position of 40% equities and 60% in fixed income. During the reporting period, the fund benefited from a larger than neutral allocation to stocks that was maintained for the entire reporting period. The benefits from this larger allocation to stocks were greatest during stock market rallies in December of 2003 and November of 2004. The returns of the fund were reduced by this strategy during July and August of 2004 when interest rates and stock prices declined.

Within the equity portion, the fund maintained a larger than neutral allocation to foreign stocks. This allocation benefited the returns of the fund primarily due to an increase in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. The returns of the stock portion of the fund were negatively affected by the performance, verses their benchmarks, of the two stock mutual funds owned by the fund, the Capital Appreciation Core Fund, and the Federated International Capital Appreciation Fund. Both funds underperformed their respective benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index and the MSCI All Country World Ex. U.S. Index.

Within the bond portion, the fund maintained a shorter duration than the Lehman Aggregate and a higher relative allocation to high-yield bonds and foreign bonds. 5 Overall, the fund benefited from this strategy. From December 2003 to February 2004, the strategy detracted from returns but this loss was more than made up for by returns during the remainder of the reporting period. The benefits to this strategy were greatest during November of 2004 when interest rates were rising and the value of the dollar was falling.

In addition, the total return of the fund's shares reflects the negative impact of actual cash flows, transaction costs, and other expenses.

Performance data quoted represents past performance which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Mutual fund performance changes over time and current performance may be lower or higher than what is stated. For current to the most recent month-end performance and after-tax returns, visit www.federatedinvestors.com or call 1-800-341-7400. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Mutual funds are not obligations of or guaranteed by any bank and are not federally insured.

5 Duration measures a security's price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Securities with longer durations are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities of shorter durations.

Notes to Financial Statements

November 30, 2004

1. ORGANIZATION

Federated Managed Allocation Portfolios (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust consists of three portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Conservative Allocation Fund (the "Fund"), a diversified portfolio. The financial statements of the other portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek total return with an emphasis on income and capital appreciation. The Fund offers two classes of shares: Institutional Shares and Select Shares.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States of America.

Investment Valuation

Domestic and foreign equity securities are valued at the last sale price or official closing price reported in the market in which they are primarily traded (either a national securities exchange or the over-the-counter market), if available. If unavailable, the security is generally valued at the mean between the last closing bid and asked prices. With respect to valuation of foreign securities, trading in foreign cities may be completed at times which vary from the closing of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Therefore, foreign securities are valued at the latest closing price on the exchange on which they are traded immediately prior to the closing of the NYSE. Foreign securities quoted in foreign currencies are translated in U.S. dollars at the foreign exchange rate in effect at 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the day the value of the foreign security is determined. Fixed-income, listed corporate bonds, unlisted securities and private placement securities are generally valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked price as furnished by an independent pricing service. Short-term securities are valued at the prices provided by an independent pricing service. However, short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value. Securities for which no quotations are readily available or whose values have been affected by a significant event occurring between the close of their primary markets and the closing of the NYSE are valued at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures established by and under general supervision of the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees").

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC), the Fund may also invest in the following open-end management companies (Fund Investments), registered under the Act which are managed by Federated Equity Management Company of Pennsylvania (FEMCOPA) or its affiliates.

Fund
   
Investment Objective
Federated Intermediate Corporate Bond Fund, IS Shares (Intermediate Corporate Bond)

To provide current income.
Federated International Bond Fund, Class A Shares (International Bond)

To provide total return.
Federated International Capital Appreciation Fund, Class A Shares (International Capital Appreciation)

To provide long-term growth of capital.
Federated Mortgage Core Portfolio (Mortgage Core)

To provide total return.
Federated U.S. Government Securities Fund 2-5 Years, IS Shares (Gov 2-5)

To provide current income.
Federated U.S. Government Bond Fund (Government Bond)

To provide total return.
High Yield Bond Fund Portfolio (HYCORE)

To provide high current income.

Income distributions from Intermediate Corporate Bond, Mortgage Core, Gov 2-5, Government Bond and HYCORE are declared daily and paid monthly. Income distributions from International Bond and International Capital Appreciation are declared and paid annually. All income distributions are recorded by the Fund as dividend income. Capital gain distributions of the Fund Investments, if any, are declared and paid annually, and are recorded by the Fund as capital gains received. The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Fund Investments. A copy of each Fund Investment's financial statements is available on the EDGAR Database on the SEC's website www.sec.gov, at the Commission's public reference room in Washington, DC or upon request from the Fund by calling 1-800-341-7400.

Pursuant to a separate Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the Fund may invest in the following portfolios (Portfolios) of Core Trust II, a limited partnership registered under the Act which is managed by Federated Investment Counseling, an affiliate of the Adviser:

Fund
   
Investment Objective
Capital Appreciation Core Fund (Capital Core)

To provide capital appreciation.
Emerging Markets Fixed Income Core Fund (EMCORE)

To provide high current income.

The Fund records daily its proportionate share of income, expenses, unrealized gains and losses and realized gains and losses from the Portfolios. The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolios. A copy of each Portfolio's financial statements is available on the EDGAR Database on the SEC's website, at the Commission's public reference room in Washington, DC or upon request from the Fund by calling 1-800-341-7400.

Repurchase Agreements

It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of the collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.

The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's adviser to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Trustees. Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. Investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, and certain fund-level expenses are allocated to each class based on relative average daily net assets, except that each class bears certain expenses unique to that class such as distribution and shareholder services fees. Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in separate class expenses.

Premium and Discount Amortization

All premiums and discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized/accreted for financial statement purposes.

Federal Taxes

It is the Fund's policy to comply with the Subchapter M provision of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax is necessary.

Withholding taxes on foreign interest, dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country's tax rules and rates.

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions

The Fund may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Fund records when-issued securities on the trade date and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

Futures Contracts

The Fund may purchase stock (bond) index futures contracts to manage cashflows, enhance yield, manage duration and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a stock (bond) index futures contract with a broker, the Fund is required to deposit in a segregated account a specified amount of cash or U.S. government securities. Futures contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded in a "variation margin" account. Daily, the Fund receives from or pays to the broker a specified amount of cash based upon changes in the variation margin account. When a contract is closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in the value of the underlying securities. For the year ended November 30, 2004, the Fund had a realized gain of $352,169 on futures contracts.

At November 30, 2004, the Fund had no open futures contracts.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

The Fund may enter into foreign currency commitments for the delayed delivery of securities or foreign currency exchange transactions. The Fund may enter into foreign currency contract transactions to protect assets against adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations. Purchased contracts are used to acquire exposure to foreign currencies; whereas, contracts to sell are used to hedge the Fund's securities against currency fluctuations. Risks may arise upon entering these transactions from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their commitments and from unanticipated movements in security prices or foreign exchange rates. The foreign currency transactions are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until the settlement date. At November 30, 2004, the Fund had no outstanding foreign currency commitments.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies (FCs) are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rates of exchange of such currencies against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities, income, and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange quoted on the respective date that such transactions are recorded. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of FCs, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at fiscal year end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses, and revenues reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimated.

Other

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified cost basis.

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due in part to differing treatments for foreign currency transactions, discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities, and tax-allocated income from partnerships.

For the year ended November 30, 2004, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:

Increase (Decrease)


Paid-In Capital

   
Undistributed
Net Investment
Income





   
Accumulated
Net Realized
Loss

$119,343

$11,549

$(130,892)

Net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses), and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.

The tax character of distributions as reported on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets for the years ended November 30, 2004 and 2003, was as follows:


   
2004
   
2003
Ordinary income 1

$2,995,167

$2,556,485

1 For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions are considered ordinary income distributions.

As of November 30, 2004, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income
   
$
527,667
Net unrealized appreciation

$
4,301,713
Capital loss carryforward

$
3,181,087

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation/depreciation is due in part to differing treatments for the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.

At November 30, 2004, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $101,096,348. The net unrealized appreciation of investments for federal tax purposes excluding any unrealized appreciation resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates was $4,301,499. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $5,008,600 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $707,101.

At November 30, 2004, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $3,181,087 which will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal tax. Pursuant to the Code, such capital loss carryforward will expire as follows:

Expiration Year
   
Expiration Amount
2009

$ 866,952
2010

$2,314,135

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

Federated Equity Management Company of Pennsylvania (FEMCOPA), the Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser") receives for its services an annual investment adviser fee equal to 0.75% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Prior to January 1, 2004, the Fund's investment adviser was Federated Investment Management Company (FIMCO). The fee received by FIMCO was identical to that received by FEMCOPA. FEMCOPA and FIMCO may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of their fees. FEMCOPA and FIMCO can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at their sole discretion. For the year ended November 30, 2004, the fees paid to FEMCOPA and FIMCO were $578,343 and $56,613, respectively, after voluntary waiver, if applicable.

Certain of the Fund's assets are managed by FIMCO (the "Sub-Adviser"). Under the terms of a sub-adviser agreement between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser receives an allocable portion of the Fund's adviser fee. The fee is paid by the Adviser out of its resources and is not an incremental Fund expense.

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the Fund may invest in other funds which are managed by the Adviser or an affiliate of the Adviser. The Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Fund for certain investment adviser fees as a result of these transactions. Income earned from investments in these funds is recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements as listed below:

Administrative Fee

Federated Administrative Services (FAS), under the Administrative Services Agreement, provides the Fund with administrative personnel and services. The fee paid to FAS is based on the average aggregate daily net assets of all Federated funds as specified below:

Maximum
Administrative Fee

   
Average Aggregate Daily
Net Assets of the Federated Funds

0.150%

on the first $5 billion
0.125%

on the next $5 billion
0.100%

on the next $10 billion
0.075%

on assets in excess of $20 billion

The administrative fee received during any fiscal year shall be at least $150,000 per portfolio and $40,000 per each additional class of Shares. FAS may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FAS can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Distribution Services Fee

The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the terms of the Plan, the Fund will compensate Federated Securities Corp. (FSC), the principal distributor, from the daily net assets of the Fund's Select Shares to finance activities intended to result in the sale of these shares. The Plan provides that the Fund may incur distribution expenses of up to 0.75% of average daily net assets, annually, to compensate FSC. FSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Shareholder Services Fee

Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with Federated Shareholder Services Company (FSSC), the Fund will pay FSSC up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Institutional Shares and Select Shares for the period. The fee paid to FSSC is used to finance certain services for shareholders and to maintain shareholder accounts. FSSC may voluntarily choose to waive/and or reimburse any portion of its fee. FSSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver and/or reimbursement at any time at its sole discretion.

Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent Fees and Expenses

Prior to July 1, 2004, Federated Services Company (FServ), through its subsidiary FSSC, served as transfer and dividend disbursing agent for the Fund. The fee paid to FSSC was based on the size, type, and number of accounts and transactions made by shareholders. The fee paid to FSSC during the reporting period was $67,187, after voluntary waiver, if applicable.

Portfolio Accounting Fees

Prior to January 1, 2004, FServ maintained the Fund's accounting records for which it received a fee. The fee was based on the level of the Fund's average daily net assets for the period, plus out-of-pocket expenses. The fee paid to FServ during the reporting period was $5,760, after voluntary waiver, if applicable.

General

Certain of the Officers and Trustees of the Fund are Officers and Directors or Trustees of the above companies.

6. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations (and in-kind contributions), for the year ended November 30, 2004, were as follows:

Purchases
   
$
30,678,282
Sales

$
31,199,000

7. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Fund may invest a portion of its assets in securities of companies that are deemed by the Fund's management to be classified in similar business sectors. The economic developments within a particular sector may have an adverse effect on the ability of issuers to meet their obligations. Additionally, economic developments may have an effect on the liquidity and volatility of the portfolios securities.

8. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Beginning in October 2003, Federated Investors, Inc. and various subsidiaries thereof (including the advisers and distributor for various investment companies, collectively, "Federated"), along with various investment companies sponsored by Federated ("Funds") were named as defendants in several class action lawsuits now pending in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland seeking damages of unspecified amounts. The lawsuits were purportedly filed on behalf of people who purchased, owned and/or redeemed shares of Federated-sponsored mutual funds during specified periods beginning November 1, 1998. The suits are generally similar in alleging that Federated engaged in illegal and improper trading practices including market timing and late trading in concert with certain institutional traders, which allegedly caused financial injury to the mutual fund shareholders. Federated and various Funds have also been named as defendants in several additional lawsuits, the majority of which are now pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, alleging, among other things, excessive advisory and Rule 12b-1 fees, and seeking damages of unspecified amounts. The Board of the Funds has retained the law firm of Dickstein Shapiro Morin & Oshinsky LLP to represent the Funds in these lawsuits. Federated and the Funds, and their respective counsel, are reviewing the allegations and will respond appropriately. Additional lawsuits based upon similar allegations may be filed in the future. The potential impact of these recent lawsuits and future potential similar suits is uncertain. Although we do not believe that these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Funds, there can be no assurance that these suits, the ongoing adverse publicity and/or other developments resulting from the regulatory investigations will not result in increased Fund redemptions, reduced sales of Fund shares, or other adverse consequences for the Funds.

9. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2004, 32.4% of total ordinary dividends paid by the Fund are qualifying dividends which may be subject to a maximum tax rate of 15%, as provided for by the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Act of 2003. Complete information is reported in conjunction with the reporting of your distributions on Form 1099-DIV.

Of the ordinary income (including short-term capital gain) distributions made by the Fund during the year ended November 30, 2004, 31.4% qualify for the dividend received deduction available to corporate shareholders.

Report of independent registered public accounting firm

TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF FEDERATED MANAGED ALLOCATION PORTFOLIOS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF FEDERATED CONSERVATIVE ALLOCATION FUND:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of Federated Conservative Allocation Fund (the "Fund") as of November 30, 2004, and the related statement of operations 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 five years in the period then ended. 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 standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to provide 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. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned at November 30, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian. 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 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 Federated Conservative Allocation Fund as of November 30, 2004, 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.

5 This voluntary expense decrease is reflected in both the expense and the net investment income ratios shown above.

Shareholder Expense Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees; to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or shareholder services fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you to understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from June 1, 2004 to November 30, 2004.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred 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 section under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses attributable to your investment during this period.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. Thus, you should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate the actual ending account balance or your expenses for the period. Rather, these figures are provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

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

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

The Federated Moderate Allocation Fund's Institutional and Select Shares had total returns of 8.24% and 7.50%, respectively, for the reporting period ended November 30, 2004. The Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index (S&P 500) 1 and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (Lehman Aggregate) 2 had total returns of 12.86% and 4.44%, respectively.

MARKETS

Stock prices rose during the first three months of the reporting period before declining during the spring and summer months. The total return of the S&P 500 for December 2003 to February 2004 period was 8.67% and for the March 2004 to August 2004 period was (2.74)%. Stock prices rose again in the fall with the S&P 500 returning 6.78% for the September 2004 to November 2004 period. Foreign stock 3 returns benefited significantly from currency gains as indicated by gross returns for the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) All Country World Ex. U.S. Index 4 of 25.25% in dollars compared to 14.36% in local currency.

Interest rates fell during the first few months of the reporting period but then climbed significantly between the middle of March 2004 and early June 2004. Between March 16, 2004 and June 14, 2004, the average yield to maturity of the Lehman Aggregate increased from 3.73% to 4.94%. Interest rates were lower at the end the reporting period as indicated by the average yield to maturity of the Lehman Aggregate of 4.50%. Within the bond asset classes, high yield bonds and foreign bonds had the highest returns. Foreign developed market bond returns also benefited from currency gains.

1 Standard & Poor's 500 Index is an unmanaged capitalization-weighted index of 500 stocks designed to measure performance of the broad domestic economy through changes in the aggregate market value of 500 stocks representing all major industries. Indexes are unmanaged and investments cannot be made directly in an index.

2 Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged index composed of securities from the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Bond Index, Mortgage Backed Securities Index, and the Asset Backed Securities Index. Total return comprises price appreciation/depreciation and income as a percentage of the original investment. Indices are rebalanced monthly by market capitalization.

3 International investing involves special risks including currency risk, increased volatility of foreign securities, political risks and differences in auditing and other financial standards.

4 MSCI All Country World Ex. U.S. Index is an unmanaged index representing 48 developed and emerging markets around the world that collectively comprise virtually all of the foreign equity stock markets.

FUND

The asset allocation of the fund is set relative to a neutral position of 60% equities and 40% in fixed income. During the reporting period, the fund benefited from a larger than neutral allocation to stocks that was maintained for the entire reporting period. The benefits from this larger allocation to stocks were greatest during stock market rallies in December of 2003 and November of 2004. The returns of the fund were reduced by this strategy during July and August of 2004 when interest rates and stock prices declined.

Within the equity portion, the fund maintained a larger than neutral allocation to foreign stocks. This allocation benefited the returns of the fund primarily due to an increase in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. The returns of the stock portion of the fund were negatively affected by the performance, verses their benchmarks, of the two stock mutual funds owned by the fund, the Capital Appreciation Core Fund, and the Federated International Capital Appreciation Fund. Both funds underperformed their respective benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index and the MSCI All Country World Ex. U.S. Index.

Within the bond portion, the fund maintained a shorter duration than the Lehman Aggregate and a higher relative allocation to high-yield bonds and foreign bonds. 5 Overall, the fund benefited from this strategy. From December 2003 to February 2004, the strategy detracted from returns but this loss was more than made up for by returns during the remainder of the reporting period. The benefits to this strategy were greatest during November of 2004 when interest rates were rising and the value of the dollar was falling.

In addition, the total return of the fund's shares reflects the negative impact of actual cash flows, transaction costs, and other expenses.

Performance data quoted represents past performance which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Mutual fund performance changes over time and current performance may be lower or higher than what is stated. For current to the most recent month-end performance and after-tax returns, visit www.federatedinvestors.com or

5 Duration measures a security's price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Securities with longer durations are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities of shorter durations.

Notes to Financial Statements

November 30, 2004

1. ORGANIZATION

Federated Managed Allocation Portfolios (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act") as an open-end management investment company. The Trust consists of three portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Moderate Allocation Fund (the "Fund"), a diversified portfolio. The financial statements of the other portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held. The Fund offers two classes of shares: Institutional Shares and Select Shares. The primary investment objective of the Fund is to seek capital appreciation with income as a secondary objective.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States of America.

Investment Valuation

Domestic and foreign equity securities are valued at the last sale price or official closing price reported in the market in which they are primarily traded (either a national securities exchange or the over-the-counter market), if available. If unavailable, the security is generally valued at the mean between the last closing bid and asked prices. With respect to valuation of foreign securities, trading in foreign cities may be completed at times which vary from the closing of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Therefore, foreign securities are valued at the latest closing price on the exchange on which they are traded immediately prior to the closing of the NYSE. Foreign securities quoted in foreign currencies are translated in U.S. dollars at the foreign exchange rate in effect at 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the day the value of the foreign security is determined. Fixed-income, listed corporate bonds, unlisted securities, and private placement securities are generally valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked price as furnished by an independent pricing service. Short-term securities are valued at the prices provided by an independent pricing service. However, short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value. Securities for which no quotations are readily available or whose values have been affected by a significant event occurring between the close of their primary markets and the closing of the NYSE are valued at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures established by and under general supervision of the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees").

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC), the Fund may also invest in the following open-end management companies ("Fund Investments"), registered under the Act which are managed by Federated Equity Management Company of Pennsylvania (FEMCOPA) or its affiliates.

Fund
   
Investment Objective
Federated Intermediate Corporate Bond Fund, IS Shares (Intermediate Corporate Bond)

To provide current income.
Federated International Bond Fund, Class A Shares (International Bond)

To provide total return.
Federated International Capital Appreciation Fund, Class A Shares (International Capital Appreciation)

To provide long-term growth of capital.
Federated Mortgage Core Portfolio (Mortgage Core)

To provide total return.
Federated U.S. Government Securities Fund 2-5 Years, IS Shares (Gov 2-5)

To provide current income.
Federated U.S. Government Bond Fund (Government Bond)

To provide total return.
High Yield Bond Fund Portfolio (HYCORE)

To provide high current income.

Income distributions from Intermediate Corporate Bond, Mortgage Core, Gov 2-5, Government Bond and HYCORE are declared daily and paid monthly. Income distributions from International Bond and International Capital Appreciation are declared and paid annually. All income distributions are recorded by the Fund as dividend income. Capital gain distributions of the Fund Investments, if any, are declared and paid annually, and are recorded by the Fund as capital gains received. The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Fund Investments. A copy of each Fund Investment's financial statements is available on the EDGAR Database on the SEC's website www.sec.gov, at the Commission's public reference room in Washington, DC or upon request from the Fund by calling 1-800-341-7400.

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the Fund may also invest in the following portfolios ("Portfolios") of Core Trust II, a limited partnership registered under the Act which is managed by Federated Investment Counseling, an affiliate of the Adviser:

Fund
   
Investment Objective
Capital Appreciation Core Fund (Capital Core)

To provide capital appreciation.
Emerging Markets Fixed Income Core Fund (EMCORE)

To provide high current income.

The Fund records daily its proportionate share of income, expenses, unrealized gains and losses and realized gains and losses from the Portfolios. The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolios. A copy of each Portfolio's financial statements is available on the EDGAR Database on the SEC's website, at the Commission's public reference room in Washington, DC or upon request from the Fund by calling 1-800-341-7400.

Repurchase Agreements

It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.

The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's adviser to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Trustees. Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.

Investment Income, Gain and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. Investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, and certain fund-level expenses are allocated to each class based on relative average daily net assets, except that each class bears certain expenses unique to that class such as distribution and shareholder services fees. Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in separate class expenses.

Premium and Discount Amortization/Paydown Gains and Losses

All premiums and discount on fixed-income securities are amortized/accreted for financial statement purposes.

Federal Taxes

It is the Fund's policy to comply with the Subchapter M provision of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax is necessary.

Withholding taxes on foreign interest, dividends, and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country's rules and rates.

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions

The Fund may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Fund records when-issued securities on the trade date and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

Futures Contracts

The Fund may purchase stock (bond) index futures contracts to manage cashflows, enhance yield and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a stock (bond) index futures contract with a broker, the Fund is required to deposit in a segregated account a specified amount of cash or U.S. government securities. Futures contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded in a "variation margin" account. Daily, the Fund receives from or pays to the broker a specified amount of cash based upon changes in the variation margin account. When a contract is closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. For the year ended November 30, 2004, the Fund had a net realized gain of $258,042 on futures contracts.

At November 30, 2004, the Fund had no open futures contracts.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

The Fund may enter into foreign currency commitments for the delayed delivery of securities or foreign currency exchange transactions. The Fund may enter into foreign currency contract transactions to protect assets against adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations. Purchased contracts are used to acquire exposure to foreign currencies; whereas, contracts to sell are used to hedge the Fund's securities against currency fluctuations. Risks may arise upon entering into these transactions from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their commitments and from unanticipated movements in security prices or foreign exchange rates. The foreign currency transactions are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until the settlement date. At November 30, 2004, the Fund had no outstanding foreign currency commitments.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies (FCs) are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rates of exchange of such currencies against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities, income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange quoted on the respective date that such transactions are recorded. Differences between income and expense amounts recorded and collected or paid are adjusted when reported by the custodian bank. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of FCs, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at fiscal year end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses, and revenues reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimated.

Other

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified cost basis.

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due in part to differing treatments for foreign currency transactions, discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities and tax allocated income from partnerships.

For the year ended November 30, 2004, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:

Increase (Decrease)
Paid-In Capital
   
Undistributed
Net Investment Income

   
Accumulated
Net Realized
Loss

$(71,049)

$12,775

$58,274

Net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses), and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.

The tax character of distributions as reported on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets for the years ended November 30, 2004 and 2003, was as follows:


   
2004
   
2003
Ordinary income 1

$2,692,072

$2,049,320

1 For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions are considered ordinary income distributions.

As of November 30, 2004, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income
   
$
634,863
Net unrealized appreciation

$
8,954,386
Capital loss carryforward

$
8,420,400

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation/depreciation is due in part to differing treatments for the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.

At November 30, 2004, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $135,924,414. The net unrealized appreciation of investments for federal tax purposes excluding any unrealized appreciation resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates was $8,749,451. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investment for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $9,316,166 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $566,715.

At November 30, 2004, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $8,420,400 which will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from future net realized gain on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, and thus will reduce the amount of the distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal tax. Pursuant to the Code, such capital loss carryforward will expire as follows:

Expiration Year
   
Expiration Amount
2009

$1,642,701
2010

$6,777,699

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

Federated Equity Management Company of Pennsylvania (FEMCOPA), the Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser"), receives for its services an annual investment adviser fee equal to 0.75% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Prior to January 1, 2004, the Fund's investment adviser was Federated Investment Management Company (FIMCO). The fee received by FIMCO was identical to that received by FEMCOPA. FEMCOPA and FIMCO may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of their fee. FEMCOPA and FIMCO can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at their sole discretion. For the year ended November 30, 2004, the fees paid to FEMCOPA and FIMCO were $833,610 and $85,643, respectively, after voluntary waiver, if applicable.

Certain of the Fund's assets are managed by FIMCO (the "Sub-Adviser"). Under the terms of a sub-adviser agreement between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser receives an allocable portion of the Fund's adviser fee. The fee is paid by the Adviser out of its resources and is not an incremental Fund expense.

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the Fund may also invest in other funds which are managed by the Adviser or an affiliate of the Adviser. The Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Fund for certain investment adviser fees as a result of these transactions. Income earned from investments in these funds is recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements as listed below:

Administrative Fee

Federated Administrative Services (FAS), under the Administrative Services Agreement, provides the Fund with administrative personnel and services. The fee paid to FAS is based on the average aggregate daily net assets of all Federated funds as specified below:

Maximum
Administrative Fee

   
Average Aggregate Daily Net Assets
of the Federated Funds

0.150%

on the first $5 billion
0.125%

on the next $5 billion
0.100%

on the next $10 billion
0.075%

on assets in excess of $20 billion

The administrative fee received during any fiscal year shall be at least $150,000 per portfolio and $40,000 per each additional class of Shares. FAS may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FAS can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Distribution Services Fee

The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the terms of the Plan, the Fund will compensate Federated Securities Corp. (FSC), the principal distributor, from the daily net assets of the Fund's Select Shares to finance activities intended to result in the sale of these shares. The Plan provides that the Fund may incur distribution expenses of up to 0.75% of average daily net assets, annually, to compensate FSC. FSC may voluntarily choose to waive and/or reimburse any portion of its fee. FSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Shareholder Services Fee

Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with Federated Shareholder Services Company (FSSC), the Fund will pay FSSC up to 0.25% of average daily net assets of the Fund's Institutional Shares and Select Shares for the period. The fee paid to FSSC is used to finance certain services for shareholders and to maintain shareholder accounts. FSSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FSSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver and/or reimbursement at any time at its sole discretion.

Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent Fees and Expenses

Prior to July 1, 2004, Federated Services Company (FServ), through its subsidiary FSSC, served as transfer and dividend disbursing agent for the Fund. The fee paid to FSSC was based on the size, type, and number of accounts and transactions made by shareholders. The fee paid to FSSC during the reporting period was $87,390, after voluntary waiver, if applicable.

Portfolio Accounting Fees

Prior to January 1, 2004, FServ maintained the Fund's accounting records for which it received a fee. The fee was based on the level of the Fund's average daily net assets for the period, plus out-of-pocket expenses. The fee paid to FServ during the reporting period was $5,857, after voluntary waiver, if applicable.

Other

Federated has retained an outside law firm to perform an internal review of past mutual fund trading practices and report to a special investigative committee of Federated's Board. In conjunction with this review, the Independent Trustees of the Fund have retained a financial expert to assess the impact of these trading practices. In accordance with the findings of the financial expert, the Fund's Adviser made a contribution to the Fund of $47,756, which relates to a contribution to Paid-in Capital for detrimentral impact to the Fund from frequent trading activity and detrimental impact on those Funds that may have resulted from orders incorrectly accepted by Federated employees after the Funds'closing times.

General

Certain of the Officers and Trustees of the Fund are Officers and Directors or Trustees of the above companies.

6. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations (and in-kind contributions), for the year ended November 30, 2004, were as follows:

Purchases
   
$
34,153,066
Sales

$
29,388,000

7. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Fund may invest a portion of its assets in securities of companies that are deemed by the Fund's management to be classified in similar business sectors. The economic developments within a particular sector may have an adverse effect on the ability of issuers to meet their obligations. Additionally, economic developments may have an effect on the liquidity and volatility of the portfolios securities.

8. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Beginning in October 2003, Federated Investors, Inc. and various subsidiaries thereof (including the advisers and distributor for various investment companies, collectively, "Federated"), along with various investment companies sponsored by Federated ("Funds") were named as defendants in several class action lawsuits now pending in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland seeking damages of unspecified amounts. The lawsuits were purportedly filed on behalf of people who purchased, owned, and/or redeemed shares of Federated-sponsored mutual funds during specified periods beginning November 1, 1998. The suits are generally similar in alleging that Federated engaged in illegal and improper trading practices including market timing and late trading in concert with certain institutional traders, which allegedly caused financial injury to the mutual fund shareholders. Federated and various Funds have also been named as defendants in several additional lawsuits, the majority of which are now pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, alleging, among other things, excessive advisory and Rule 12b-1 fees, and seeking damages of unspecified amounts. The Board of the Funds has retained the law firm of Dickstein Shapiro Morin & Oshinsky LLP to represent the Funds in these lawsuits. Federated and the Funds, and their respective counsel, are reviewing the allegations and will respond appropriately. Additional lawsuits based upon similar allegations may be filed in the future. The potential impact of these recent lawsuits and future potential similar suits is uncertain. Although we do not believe that these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Funds, there can be no assurance that these suits, the ongoing adverse publicity and/or other developments resulting from the regulatory investigations will not result in increased Fund redemptions, reduced sales of Fund shares, or other adverse consequences for the Funds.

9. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2004, 69.3% of total ordinary dividends paid by the Funds are qualifying dividends which may be subject to a maximum tax rate of 15%, as provided for by the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Act of 2003. Complete information is reported in conjunction with the reporting of your distributions on Form 1099-DIV.

Of the ordinary income (including short-term capital gain) distributions made by the Fund during the year ended November 30, 2004, 58.5% qualify for the dividend received deduction available to corporate shareholders.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF FEDERATED MANAGED ALLOCATION PORTFOLIOS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF FEDERATED MODERATE ALLOCATION FUND:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of Federated Moderate Allocation Fund (the "Fund") as of November 30, 2004, and the related statement of operations 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 five years in the period then ended. 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 standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to provide 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. Our procedures included confirmation of the securities owned at November 30, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian. 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 our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Federated Moderate Allocation Fund as of November 30, 2004, 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.

Shareholder Expense Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees; to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or shareholder services fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you to understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from June 1, 2004 to November 30, 2004.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred 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 section under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses attributable to your investment during this period.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. Thus, you should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate the actual ending account balance or your expenses for the period. Rather, these figures are provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

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

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance

The Federated Growth Allocation Fund's Institutional and Select Shares had total returns of 9.11% and 8.33%, respectively, for the reporting period ended November 30, 2004. The Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index (S&P 500) 1 and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (Lehman Aggregate) 2 had total returns of 12.86% and 4.44%, respectively.

MARKETS

Stock prices rose during the first three months of the reporting period before declining during the spring and summer months. The total return of the S&P 500 for December 2003 to February 2004 period was 8.67% and for the March 2004 to August 2004 period was (2.74)%. Stock prices rose again in the fall with the S&P 500 returning 6.78% for the September 2004 to November 2004 period. Foreign stock 3 returns benefited significantly from currency gains as indicated by gross returns for the MSCI All Country World Ex USA Index 4 of 25.25% in dollars compared to 14.36% in local currency.

Interest rates fell during the first few months of the reporting period but then climbed significantly between the middle of March 2004 and early June 2004. Between March 16, 2004 and June 14, 2004, the average yield to maturity of the Lehman Aggregate increased from 3.73% to 4.94%. Interest rates were lower at the end the reporting period as indicated by the average yield to maturity of the Lehman Aggregate of 4.50%. Within the bond asset classes, high yield bonds and foreign bonds had the highest returns. Foreign developed market bond returns also benefited from currency gains.

1 Standard & Poor's 500 Index is an unmanaged capitalization-weighted index of 500 stocks designed to measure performance of the broad domestic economy through changes in the aggregate market value of 500 stocks representing all major industries. Indexes are unmanaged and investments cannot be made directly in an index.

2 Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index is an unmanaged index composed of securities from the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Bond Index, Mortgage-Backed Securities Index and the Asset-Backed Securities Index. Total return comprises price appreciation/depreciation and income as a percentage of the original investment. Indices are rebalanced monthly by market capitalization.

3 International investing involves special risks including currency risk, increased volatility of foreign securities, political risks and differences in auditing and other financial standards.

4 Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI)--All Country World Index Ex. U.S, is an unmanaged index representing 48 developed and emerging markets around the world that collectively comprise virtually all of the foreign equity stock markets.

FUND

The asset allocation of the fund is set relative to a neutral position of 80% equities and 20% in fixed income. During the reporting period, the fund benefited from a larger than neutral allocation to stocks that was maintained for the entire reporting period. The benefits from this larger allocation to stocks were greatest during stock market rallies in December 2003 and November 2004. The returns of the fund were reduced by this strategy during July and August 2004, when interest rates and stock prices declined.

Within the equity portion, the fund maintained a larger than neutral allocation to foreign stocks. This allocation benefited the returns of the fund primarily due to an increase in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. The returns of the stock portion of the fund were negatively affected by the performance, verses their benchmarks, of the two stock mutual funds owned by the fund, the Capital Appreciation Core Fund and the Federated International Capital Appreciation Fund. Both funds underperformed their respective benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index and the MSCI All Country World Ex USA Index.

Within the bond portion, the fund maintained a shorter duration than the Lehman Aggregate and a higher relative allocation to high yield bonds and foreign bonds. 5 Overall, the fund benefited from this strategy. From December 2003 to February 2004, the strategy detracted from returns but this loss was more than made up for by returns during the remainder of the reporting period. The benefits to this strategy were greatest during November 2004 when interest rates were rising and the value of the dollar was falling.

In addition, the total return of the fund's shares reflects the negative impact of actual cashflows, transaction costs and other expenses.

Performance data quoted represents past performance which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Mutual fund performance changes over time and current performance may be lower or higher than what is stated. For current to the most recent month-end performance and after-tax returns, visit www.federatedinvestors.com or call 1-800-341-7400.

5 Duration measures a security's price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Securities with longer durations are more sensitive to changes in interest rates than securities of shorter durations.

Notes to Financial Statements

November 30, 2004

1. ORGANIZATION

Federated Managed Allocation Portfolios (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment company. The Trust consists of three portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Growth Allocation Fund (the "Fund"), a diversified portfolio. The financial statements of the other portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held. The investment objective of the Fund is to seek capital appreciation. The Fund offers two classes of shares: Institutional Shares and Select Shares.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States of America.

Investment Valuation

Domestic and foreign equity securities are valued at the last sale price or official closing price reported in the market in which they are primarily traded (either a national securities exchange or the over-the-counter market), if available. If unavailable, the security is generally valued at the mean between the last closing bid and asked prices. With respect to valuation of foreign securities, trading in foreign cities may be completed at times which vary from the closing of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Therefore, foreign securities are valued at the latest closing price on the exchange on which they are traded immediately prior to the closing of the NYSE. Foreign securities quoted in foreign currencies are translated in U.S. dollars at the foreign exchange rate in effect at 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the day the value of the foreign security is determined. Fixed income, listed corporate bonds, unlisted securities and private placement securities are generally valued at the mean of the latest bid and ask price as furnished by an independent pricing service. Short-term securities are valued at the prices provided by an independent pricing service. However, short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value. Securities for which no quotations are readily available or whose values have been affected by a significant event occurring between the close of their primary markets and the closing of the NYSE are valued at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures established by and under general supervision of the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees").

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC), the Fund may also invest in the following open-end management companies (Fund Investments), registered under the Act which are managed by Federated Equity Management Company of Pennsylvania (FEMCOPA) or its affiliates.

Fund
   
Investment Objective
Federated Intermediate Corporate Bond Fund, IS Shares (Intermediate Corporate Bond)

To provide current income.
Federated International Bond Fund, Class A Shares (International Bond)

To provide total return.
Federated International Capital Appreciation Fund, Class A Shares (International Capital Appreciation)

To provide long-term growth of capital.
Federated Mortgage Core Portfolio (Mortgage Core)

To provide total return.
Federated U.S. Government Securities Fund 2-5 Years, IS Shares (Gov 2-5)

To provide current income.
Federated U.S. Government Bond Fund (Government Bond)

To provide total return.
High Yield Bond Fund Portfolio (HYCORE)

To provide high current income.

Income distributions from Intermediate Corporate Bond, Mortgage Core, Gov 2-5, Government Bond and HYCORE are declared daily and paid monthly. Income distributions from International Bond and International Capital Appreciation are declared and paid annually. All income distributions are recorded by the Fund as dividend income. Capital gain distributions of the Fund Investments, if any, are declared and paid annually, and are recorded by the Fund as capital gains received. The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Fund Investments. A copy of each Fund Investment's financial statements is available on the EDGAR Database on the SEC's website www.sec.gov, at the Commission's public reference room in Washington, DC or upon request from the Fund by calling 1-800-341-7400.

Pursuant to a separate Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the Fund may invest in the following portfolios ("Portfolios") of Core Trust II, a limited partnership registered under the Act which is managed by Federated Investment Counseling, an affiliate of the Adviser:

Fund
   
Investment Objective
Capital Appreciation Core Fund (Capital Core)

To provide capital appreciation.
Emerging Markets Fixed Income Core Fund (EMCORE)

To provide high current income.

The Fund records daily its proportionate share of income, expenses, unrealized gains and losses and realized gains and losses from the Portfolios. The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Portfolios. A copy of Emcore's financial statements is available on the EDGAR Database on the SEC's website, at the Commission's public reference room in Washington, DC or upon request from the Fund by calling 1-800-341-7400. The financial statements of Capital Core are included within this report to illustrate the security holdings, financial condition, results of operations and changes in net assets of the Portfolio in which the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets. The financial statements of Capital Core should be read in conjunction with the Fund's financial statements. The valuation of securities held by Capital Core is discussed in the notes to its financial statements.

Repurchase Agreements

It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase and reverse repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of the collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.

The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's adviser to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Trustees. Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.

Investment Income, Gains and Losses, Expenses and Distributions

Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. Investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses, and certain fund-level expenses are allocated to each class based on relative average daily net assets, except that each class bears certain expenses unique to that class such as distribution and shareholder services fees. Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in separate class expenses.

Premium and Discount Amortization

All premiums and discounts on fixed income securities are amortized/accreted for financial statement purposes.

Federal Taxes

It is the Fund's policy to comply with the Subchapter M provision of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax is necessary.

Withholding taxes on foreign interest, dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country's tax rules and rates.

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions

The Fund may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Fund records when-issued securities on the trade date and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

Futures Contracts

The Fund may purchase stock (bond) index futures contracts to manage cashflows, enhance yield, manage duration and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a stock (bond) index futures contract with a broker, the Fund is required to deposit in a segregated account a specified amount of cash or U.S. government securities. Futures contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded in a "variation margin" account. Daily, the Fund receives from or pays to the broker a specified amount of cash based upon changes in the variation margin account. When a contract is closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in the value of the underlying securities. For the year ended November 30, 2004, the Fund had a realized gain of $184,130 on futures contracts.

At November 30, 2004, the Fund had no open futures contracts.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

The Fund may enter into foreign currency commitments for the delayed delivery of securities or foreign currency exchange transactions. The Fund may enter into foreign currency contract transactions to protect assets against adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates or exchange control regulations. Purchased contracts are used to acquire exposure to foreign currencies; whereas, contracts to sell are used to hedge the Fund's securities against currency fluctuations. Risks may arise upon entering these transactions from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their commitments and from unanticipated movements in security prices or foreign exchange rates. The foreign currency transactions are adjusted by the daily exchange rate of the underlying currency and any gains or losses are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized until the settlement date. At November 30, 2004, the Fund had no outstanding foreign currency commitments.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies (FCs) are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rates of exchange of such currencies against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities, income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange quoted on the respective date that such transactions are recorded. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of FCs, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund's books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at fiscal year end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimated.

Other

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified cost basis.

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due in part to differing treatments for foreign currency transactions, discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities, and tax allocated income from partnerships.

For the year ended November 30, 2004, permanent differences identified and reclassified among the components of net assets were as follows:

Increase (Decrease)
Paid-In Capital
   
Undistributed
Net Investment
Income

   
Accumulated
Net Realized
Loss

$(93,962)

$3,971

$89,991

Net investment income (loss), net realized gains (losses), and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.

The tax character of distributions as reported on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets for the years ended November 30, 2004 and 2003, was as follows:


   
2004
   
2003
Ordinary income 1

$144,650

$328,411

1 For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions are considered ordinary income distributions.

As of November 30, 2004, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary income
   
$
292,577
Net unrealized appreciation

$
6,287,527
Capital loss carryforward

$
12,788,903

The difference between book-basis and tax-basis net unrealized appreciation/depreciation is due in part to differing treatments for the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and discount accretion/premium amortization on debt securities.

At November 30, 2004, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $76,017,717. The net unrealized appreciation of investments for federal tax purposes was $6,287,527. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $6,324,014 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $36,487.

At November 30, 2004, the Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $12,788,903 which will reduce the Fund's taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Fund of any liability for federal tax. Pursuant to the Code, such capital loss carryforward will expire as follows:

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

Federated Equity Management Company of Pennsylvania (FEMCOPA), the Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser") receives for its services an annual investment adviser fee equal to 0.75% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Prior to January 1, 2004, the Fund's investment adviser was Federated Investment Management Company (FIMCO). The fee received by FIMCO was identical to that received by FEMCOPA. FEMCOPA and FIMCO may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of their fees. FEMCOPA and FIMCO can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at their sole discretion. For the year ended November 30, 2004, the fees paid to FEMCOPA and FIMCO were $495,676 and $50,466, respectively, after voluntary waiver, if applicable.

Certain of the Fund's assets are managed by FIMCO (the "Sub-Adviser"). Under the terms of a sub-adviser agreement between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser receives an allocable portion of the Fund's adviser fee. The fee is paid by the Adviser out of its resources and is not an incremental Fund expense.

Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, the Fund may also invest in other funds which are managed by the Adviser or an affiliate of the Adviser. The Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Fund for certain investment adviser fees as a result of these transactions. Income earned from investments in these funds is recorded as income in the accompanying financial statements as listed below:

Maximum
Administrative Fee

   
Average Aggregate Daily Net Assets
of the Federated Funds

0.150%

on the first $5 billion
0.125%

on the next $5 billion
0.100%

0.075%

on assets in excess of $20 billion

The administrative fee received during any fiscal year shall be at least $150,000 per portfolio and $40,000 per each additional class of Shares. FAS may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FAS can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Distribution Services Fee

The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the terms of the Plan, the Fund will compensate Federated Securities Corp. (FSC), the principal distributor, from the daily net assets of the Fund's Select Shares to finance activities intended to result in the sale of these shares. The Plan provides that the Fund may incur distribution expenses of up to 0.75% of average daily net assets, annually, to compensate FSC. FSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Shareholder Services Fee

Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with Federated Shareholder Services Company (FSSC), the Fund will pay FSSC up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Institutional Shares and Select Shares for the period. The fee paid to FSSC is used to finance certain services for shareholders and to maintain shareholder accounts. FSSC may voluntarily choose to waive and/or reimburse any portion of its fee. FSSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver and/or reimbursement at any time at its sole discretion.

Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent Fees and Expenses

Prior to July 1, 2004, Federated Services Company (FServ), through its subsidiary FSSC, served as transfer and dividend disbursing agent for the Fund. The fee paid to FSSC was based on the size, type and number of accounts and transactions made by shareholders. The fee paid to FSSC during the reporting period was $80,912, after voluntary waiver, if applicable.

Portfolio Accounting Fees

Prior to January 1, 2004, FServ maintained the Fund's accounting records for which it received a fee. The fee was based on the level of the Fund's average daily net assets for the period, plus out-of-pocket expenses. The fee paid to FServ during the reporting period was $5,607, after voluntary waiver, if applicable.

Other

Federated has retained an outside law firm to perform an internal review of past mutual fund trading practices and report to a special investigative committee of Federated's Board. In conjunction with this review, the Independent Trustees of the Fund have retained a financial expert to assess the impact of these trading practices. In accordance with the findings of the financial expert, the Fund's Adviser made a contribution to the Fund of $44,107, which relates to a contribution to Paid in Capital for detrimentral impact to the Fund from frequent trading activity and detrimental impact on those Funds that may have resulted from orders incorrectly accepted by Federated employees after the Funds' closing times.

General

Certain of the Officers and Directors of the Fund are Officers and Directors or Trustees of the above companies.

6. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations (and in-kind contributions), for the year ended November 30, 2004, were as follows:

Purchases

7. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Fund may invest a portion of its assets in securities of companies that are deemed by the Fund's management to be classified in similar business sectors. The economic developments within a particular sector may have an adverse effect on the ability of issuers to meet their obligations. Additionally, economic developments may have an effect on the liquidity and volatility of the portfolios securities.

8. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Beginning in October 2003, Federated Investors, Inc. and various subsidiaries thereof (including the advisers and distributor for various investment companies, collectively, "Federated"), along with various investment companies sponsored by Federated ("Funds") were named as defendants in several class action lawsuits now pending in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland seeking damages of unspecified amounts. The lawsuits were purportedly filed on behalf of people who purchased, owned and/or redeemed shares of Federated-sponsored mutual funds during specified periods beginning November 1, 1998. The suits are generally similar in alleging that Federated engaged in illegal and improper trading practices including market timing and late trading in concert with certain institutional traders, which allegedly caused financial injury to the mutual fund shareholders. Federated and various Funds have also been named as defendants in several additional lawsuits, the majority of which are now pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, alleging, among other things, excessive advisory and Rule 12b-1 fees, and seeking damages of unspecified amounts. The Board of the Funds has retained the law firm of Dickstein Shapiro Morin & Oshinsky LLP to represent the Funds in these lawsuits. Federated and the Funds, and their respective counsel, are reviewing the allegations and will respond appropriately. Additional lawsuits based upon similar allegations may be filed in the future. The potential impact of these recent lawsuits and future potential similar suits is uncertain. Although we do not believe that these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Funds, there can be no assurance that these suits, the ongoing adverse publicity and/or other developments resulting from the regulatory investigations will not result in increased Fund redemptions, reduced sales of Fund shares, or other adverse consequences for the Funds.

9. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

For the fiscal year ended November 30, 2004, 100.0% of total ordinary dividends paid by the Fund are qualifying dividends which may be subject to a maximum tax rate of 15%, as provided for by the Jobs and Growth Tax Relief Act of 2003. Complete information is reported in conjunction with the reporting of your distributions on Form 1099-DIV.

Of the ordinary income (including short-term capital gain) distributions made by the Fund during the year ended November 30, 2004, 74.4% qualifies for the dividend received deduction available to corporate shareholders.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF FEDERATED MANAGED ALLOCATION PORTFOLIOS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF FEDERATED GROWTH ALLOCATION FUND:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of Federated Growth Allocation Fund (the "Fund") as of November 30, 2004, and the related statement of operations 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 five years in the period then ended. 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 standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to provide 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. Our procedures included confirmation of the securities owned at November 30, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian. 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 our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Federated Growth Allocation Fund as of November 30, 2004, 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.

Shareholder Expense Example - Capital Appreciation Core Fund

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees; to the extent applicable, distribution (12b-1) fees and/or shareholder services fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you to understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. It is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from June 1, 2004 to November 30, 2004.

ACTUAL EXPENSES

The first section of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you incurred 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 section under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses attributable to your investment during this period.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES

The second section of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. Thus, you should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate the actual ending account balance or your expenses for the period. Rather, these figures are provided to enable you to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

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

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance -Capital Appreciation Core Fund

This report covers Capital Appreciation Core Fund's fiscal year performance period from December 1, 2003 through November 30, 2004. During this reporting period, the fund produced a total return 10.55%, based on net asset value (NAV). 1

The fund underperformed its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, 2 which returned 12.86% during the same period. The fund outperformed its peer group as measured by the Lipper Large Cap Core Funds Average 3 category, which produced an average total return of 9.10% for the same period.

The past 12 months generated positive returns for most domestic and global equity market benchmarks, continuing the trend begun in the first quarter of 2003. In general, small and mid cap investment strategies outperformed large cap strategies during the reporting period and as a result, negatively influenced the fund's relative performance, as it had a larger market cap bias as compared to the index. Value-based strategies generally outperformed growth-based strategies as well. This positively influenced the fund's performance, as it had a slight value tilt during the period.

Sector allocation was a positive contributor to performance while stock selection was a negative contributor. From a sector positioning standpoint, the fund's returns were aided by being overweight Energy, Industrials and Telecommunication Services. The fund's returns were limited by its cash position in a rising market, as well as by being underweight Utilities and overweight Materials. On a stock selection basis, the fund's return was hindered by stock performance within Information Technology, Utilities and Healthcare. The fund benefited from stock performance within Energy and Industrials.

Top Contributors during the year were: Exxon Mobil Corp. , General Electric Co. , Transocean Sedco Forex, Inc. , Halliburton Co. , and Microsoft Corp. Bottom Contributors during the year were: Intel Corp. , Pfizer, Inc. , Cisco Systems, Inc. , Hewlett-Packard Co. , and Tenet Healthcare .

Performance data quoted represents past performance which is no guarantee of future results. Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares. For after-tax returns, call 1-800-341-7400. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Mutual fund performance changes over time and current performance may be lower or higher than what is stated. Mutual funds are not obligations of or guaranteed by any bank and are not federally insured.

1 Represents a hypothetical investment of $10,000. The Fund's performance assumes the reinvestment of all dividends and distributions. The S&P 500 has been adjusted to reflect reinvestment of dividends on securities in the index.

2 The S&P 500 is not adjusted to reflect sales loads, expenses, or other fees that the Securities and Exchange Commission requires to be reflected in the Fund's performance. The index is unmanaged, and unlike the Fund, is not affected by cashflows.

Notes to Financial Statements - Capital Appreciation Core Fund

November 30, 2004

1. ORGANIZATION

Capital Appreciation Core Fund (the "Fund") is a diversified portfolio of Federated Core Trust II, L.P. (the "Trust"). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"). The Trust is a limited partnership that was established under the laws of the state of Delaware on November 13, 2000 and offered only to registered investment companies and other accredited investors. The Trust consists of two portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of the Fund. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide capital appreciation. Currently, the Fund is only available for purchase by other Federated funds and their affiliates.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States of America.

Investment Valuation

Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price or official closing price reported on a national securities exchange. Short-term securities are valued at the prices provided by an independent pricing service. However, short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value. Investments in other open-end regulated investment companies are valued at net asset value. Securities for which no quotations are readily available are valued at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures established by and under general supervision of the Board of Directors (the "Directors").

Repurchase Agreements

It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of the collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.

The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's adviser to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Directors. Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.

Investment Income, Expenses and Distributions and Tax

Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. All net income and gain/loss (realized and unrealized) will be allocated daily to the shareholders based on their capital contributions to the Fund. The Fund does not currently intend to declare and pay distributions.

Premium and Discount Amortization

All premiums and discounts on fixed income securities are amortized/accreted for financial statement purposes.

Federal Taxes

As a partnership, the Fund is not subject to U.S. federal income tax. Instead, each investor reports separately on its own federal income tax return its allocated portion of the Fund's income, gains, losses, deductions and credits.

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions

The Fund may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Fund records when-issued securities on the trade date and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimated.

Other

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are recorded on an identified cost basis.

4. FEDERAL TAX INFORMATION

At November 30, 2004, the cost of investments for federal tax purposes was $182,714,721. The net unrealized appreciation of investments for federal tax purposes was $15,089,764. This consists of net unrealized appreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of value over cost of $21,559,954 and net unrealized depreciation from investments for those securities having an excess of cost over value of $6,470,190.

5. INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Investment Adviser Fee

Federated Investment Counseling is the Fund's investment adviser (the "Adviser"), subject to the direction of the Directors. The Adviser provides investment adviser services at no fee. The Adviser may voluntarily choose to reimburse certain operating expenses of the Fund. The Adviser can modify or terminate this reimbursement at any time at its sole discretion.

Administrative Fee

Federated Administrative Services, Inc. (FASI), a subsidiary of Federated Investors, Inc., provides administrative personnel and services (including certain legal and financial reporting services) necessary to operate the Fund. FASI provides these services at an annual rate that ranges from 0.150% to 0.075% of the average aggregate net assets of all funds advised by affiliates of Federated Investors, Inc. The administrative fee received during any fiscal year shall be at least $125,000 per portfolio. FASI may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FASI may terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent Fees and Expenses

FASI serves as transfer and dividend disbursing agent for the Fund. The fee paid to FASI is based on the size, type and number of accounts and transactions made by shareholders. FASI may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FASI can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Portfolio Accounting Fees

FASI maintains the Fund's accounting records for which it receives a fee. The fee is based on the level of the Fund's average daily net assets for the period, plus out-of-pocket expenses. FASI may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FASI can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Custodian

FASI is the Fund's custodian. The fee is based on the level of the Fund's average daily net assets for the period, plus out-of-pocket expenses. FASI may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FASI can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion

General

Certain of the Officers and Directors of the Fund are Officers and Directors or Trustees of the above companies.

6. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments, excluding long-term U.S. government securities and short-term obligations (and in-kind contributions), for the year ended November 30, 2004, were as follows:

7. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Beginning in October 2003, Federated Investors, Inc. and various subsidiaries thereof (including the advisers and distributor for various investment companies, collectively, "Federated"), along with various investment companies sponsored by Federated ("Funds") were named as defendants in several class action lawsuits now pending in the United States District Court for the District of Maryland seeking damages of unspecified amounts. The lawsuits were purportedly filed on behalf of people who purchased, owned and/or redeemed shares of Federated-sponsored mutual funds during specified periods beginning November 1, 1998. The suits are generally similar in alleging that Federated engaged in illegal and improper trading practices including market timing and late trading in concert with certain institutional traders, which allegedly caused financial injury to the mutual fund shareholders. Federated and various Funds have also been named as defendants in several additional lawsuits, the majority of which are now pending in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania, alleging, among other things, excessive advisory and Rule 12b-1 fees, and seeking damages of unspecified amounts. The Board of the Funds has retained the law firm of Dickstein Shapiro Morin & Oshinsky LLP to represent the Funds in these lawsuits. Federated and the Funds, and their respective counsel, are reviewing the allegations and will respond appropriately. Additional lawsuits based upon similar allegations may be filed in the future. The potential impact of these recent lawsuits and future potential similar suits is uncertain. Although we do not believe that these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on the Funds, there can be no assurance that these suits, the ongoing adverse publicity and/or other developments resulting from the regulatory investigations will not result in increased Fund redemptions, reduced sales of Fund shares, or other adverse consequences for the Funds.

Report of Ernst & Young LLP, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF FEDERATED CORE TRUST II, L.P. AND
SHAREHOLDERS OF CAPITAL APPRECIATION CORE FUND:

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of Capital Appreciation Core Fund (the "Fund") (one of the portfolios constituting Federated Core Trust II, L.P.) as of November 30, 2004, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, and the statement of changes in net assets and 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 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of November 30, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, or other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from the brokers were not received. 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 Capital Appreciation Core Fund of Federated Core Trust II, L.P. at November 30, 2004, the results of its operations for the year then ended, and the changes in its net assets and financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

(e)(1)      Audit Committee Policies regarding Pre-approval of Services.

            The Audit Committee is required to pre-approve audit and non-audit services
performed by the independent auditor in order to assure that the provision of such services
do not impair the auditor's independence.  Unless a type of service to be provided by the
independent auditor has received general pre-approval, it will require specific
pre-approval by the Audit Committee.  Any proposed services exceeding pre-approved cost
levels will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.

            Certain services have the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee.  The
term of the general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the
Audit Committee specifically provides for a different period.  The Audit Committee will
annually review the services that may be provided by the independent auditor without
obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee and may grant general pre-approval
for such services.  The Audit Committee will revise the list of general pre-approved
services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations.  The Audit Committee will
not delegate its responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the independent
auditor to management.

            The Audit Committee has delegated pre-approval authority to its Chairman.  The
Chairman will report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next
scheduled meeting.  The Committee will designate another member with such pre-approval
authority when the Chairman is unavailable.



AUDIT SERVICES

      The annual Audit services engagement terms and fees will be subject to the specific
pre-approval of the Audit Committee.  The Audit Committee must approve any changes in
terms, conditions and fees resulting from changes in audit scope, registered investment
company (RIC) structure or other matters.

      In addition to the annual Audit services engagement specifically approved by the
Audit Committee, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval for other Audit
Services, which are those services that only the independent auditor reasonably can
provide.  The Audit Committee has pre-approved certain Audit services, all other Audit
services must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee.



AUDIT-RELATED SERVICES

      Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related
to the performance of the audit or review of the Company's financial statements or that are
traditionally performed by the independent auditor.  The Audit Committee believes that the
provision of Audit-related services does not impair the independence of the auditor, and
has pre-approved certain Audit-related services, all other Audit-related services must be
specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee.



TAX SERVICES

      The Audit Committee believes that the independent auditor can provide Tax services to
the Company such as tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice without impairing the
auditor's independence.  However, the Audit Committee will not permit the retention of the
independent auditor in connection with a transaction initially recommended by the
independent auditor, the purpose of which may be tax avoidance and the tax treatment of
which may not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations.  The Audit
Committee has pre-approved certain Tax services, all Tax services involving large and
complex transactions must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee.



ALL OTHER SERVICES

      With respect to the provision of services other than audit, review or attest services
the pre-approval requirement is waived if:



(1)   The aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than five
                  percent of the total amount of revenues paid by the registrant, the
                  registrant's adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is
                  primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by
                  another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by,
                  or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing
                  services to the registrant to its accountant during the fiscal year in
                  which the services are provided;
(2)   Such services were not recognized by the registrant, the registrant's adviser (not
                  including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management
                  and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and
                  any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the
                  investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant  at
                  the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and
(2)   Such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Audit Committee of the
                  issuer and approved prior to the completion of the audit by the Audit
                  Committee or by one or more members of the Audit Committee who are
                  members of the board of directors to whom authority to grant such
                  approvals has been delegated by the Audit Committee.


      The Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval to those permissible non-audit
services classified as All Other services that it believes are routine and recurring
services, and would not impair the independence of the auditor.



      The SEC's rules and relevant guidance should be consulted to determine the precise
definitions of prohibited non-audit services and the applicability of exceptions to certain
of the prohibitions.



PRE-APPROVAL FEE LEVELS

      Pre-approval fee levels for all services to be provided by the independent auditor
will be established annually by the Audit Committee.  Any proposed services exceeding these
levels will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee.



PROCEDURES

      Requests or applications to provide services that require specific approval by the
Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by both the independent auditor
and the Principal Accounting Officer and/or Internal Auditor, and must include a joint
statement as to whether, in their view, the request or application is consistent with the
SEC's rules on auditor independence.





(e)(2)      Percentage of services identified in items 4(b) through 4(d) that were approved
by the registrants audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of
Regulation S-X:

            the registrants audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01
            of Regulation S-X, 0% and 0% respectively.

            Percentage of services provided to the registrants 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 approved by
            the registrants audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01
            of Regulation S-X, 0% and 0% respectively.



            4(d)

            Fiscal year ended 2004 - 0%

                  Fiscal year ended 2003 - 0%

            Percentage of services provided to the registrants 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 approved by
            the registrants audit committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01
            of Regulation S-X, 0% and 0% respectively.



(f)   NA


(g)   Non-Audit Fees billed to the registrant, the registrant's investment adviser, and
      certain entities controlling, controlled by or under common control with the
      investment adviser:
            Fiscal year ended 2004 - $255,747

                  Fiscal year ended 2003 - $242,126



(h)         The registrant's Audit Committee has considered that the provision of non-audit
services that were rendered to the registrant's adviser (not including any sub-adviser
whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by
another 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.
