Announcement to Shareholders


On February 15, 2006, BlackRock, Inc. ("BlackRock") and Merrill Lynch & Co.,
Inc. ("Merrill Lynch") entered into an agreement to contribute Merrill Lynch's
investment management business, Merrill Lynch Investment Managers, L.P. and
certain affiliates (including Fund Asset Management, L.P. and Merrill Lynch
Investment Managers International Limited), to BlackRock to create a new
independent company that will be one of the world's largest asset management
firms with over $1 trillion in assets under management (based on combined
assets under management as of March 31, 2006). The transaction is expected to
close in the third quarter of 2006, at which time the new company will operate
under the BlackRock name. The Funds' Board of Directors/Trustees has approved
a new investment advisory agreement with BlackRock Advisors, Inc. or its
successor ("BlackRock Advisors") on substantially the same terms and for the
same advisory fee as the current investment advisory agreement with the
Investment Advisor. If the agreement is approved by the Funds' shareholders,
BlackRock Advisors is expected to become the Funds' investment adviser upon
the closing of the transaction between Merrill Lynch and BlackRock.



Dividend Policy


The Funds' dividend policy is to distribute all or a portion of their net
investment income to their shareholders on a monthly basis. In order to
provide shareholders with a more stable level of dividend distributions, the
Funds may at times pay out less than the entire amount of net investment
income earned in any particular month and may at times in any particular month
pay out such accumulated but undistributed income in addition to net
investment income earned in that month. As a result, the dividends paid by the
Funds for any particular month may be more or less than the amount of net
investment income earned by the Funds during such month. The Funds' current
accumulated but undistributed net investment income, if any, is disclosed in
the Statement of Net Assets, which comprises part of the financial information
included in these reports.



Swap Agreements


The Funds may invest in swap agreements, which are over-the-counter contracts
in which one party agrees to make periodic payments based on the change in
market value of a specified bond, basket of bonds, or index in return for
periodic payments based on a fixed or variable interest rate or the change in
market value of a different bond, basket of bonds or index. Swap agreements
may be used to obtain exposure to a bond or market without owning or taking
physical custody of securities. Swap agreements involve the risk that the
party with whom each Fund has entered into a swap will default on its
obligation to pay the Fund and the risk that the Fund will not be able to meet
its obligations to pay the other party to the agreement.

A Letter From the President


Dear Shareholder

You may be aware that changes are on the horizon at Merrill Lynch Investment
Managers ("MLIM"). On February 15, 2006, Merrill Lynch announced plans to
combine the firm's investment advisory business, including MLIM, with another
highly regarded investment manager - BlackRock, Inc. ("BlackRock").

We believe this merger of asset management strength will benefit our
investors. MLIM is a leading investment management organization with over
$576 billion in assets under management globally and 2,757 employees in
17 countries. It offers over 100 investment strategies in vehicles ranging
from mutual funds to institutional portfolios. BlackRock is one of the
largest publicly traded investment management firms in the United States
with $463.1 billion in assets under management and 1,839 employees. It
manages assets on behalf of institutional and individual investors worldwide
through a variety of equity, fixed income, liquidity and alternative
investment products.

At the completion of the transaction, which is expected in the third quarter
of this year, the resultant firm will be a top-10 investment manager worldwide
with over $1 trillion in assets under management.* The combined company will
provide a wider selection of high-quality investment solutions across a
range of asset classes and investment styles. MLIM and BlackRock possess
complementary capabilities that together create a well-rounded organization
uniting some of the finest money managers in the industry. At the same time,
the firms share similar values and beliefs - they are focused on delivering
excellence on behalf of clients, and both make investment performance their
single most important mission. In short, the merger only reinforces our
commitment to shareholders.

Most of MLIM's investment products - including mutual funds, separately
managed accounts, annuities and variable insurance funds - eventually will
carry the "BlackRock" name. As a shareholder in one or more MLIM-advised
mutual funds, you will receive a proxy package in the coming weeks in
connection with this transaction. After you receive this information, should
you have any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to contact your financial
advisor.

As always, we thank you for entrusting us with your investment assets, and we
look forward to continuing to serve your investment needs with even greater
strength and scale as the new BlackRock.

A Discussion With Your Funds' Portfolio Managers


New municipal issuance declined during the six-month period, helping tax-
exempt bonds to outperform their taxable counterparts but also limiting
opportunities to restructure the portfolios.


Describe the recent market environment relative to municipal bonds.

Long-term bond yields rose sharply during the six-month period, with much of
the increase occurring in March and April 2006. Bond prices, which move
opposite of yields, declined. Bond prices were pressured as investors focused
on solid economic growth, both globally and in the United States, and renewed
inflationary pressures deriving from rising commodity prices. First quarter
2006 gross domestic product growth was recently estimated at 4.8%, well above
the 1.7% rate recorded in the fourth quarter of 2005.

The Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) continued to raise short-term interest
rates at each of its meetings during the period, bringing the federal funds
target rate to 4.75% at period-end, and to 5% with another increase on May 10.
In response, the Treasury curve continued to flatten, with short-term interest
rates rising more than longer-term interest rates. Over the past six months,
30-year U.S. Treasury bond yields rose 41 basis points (.41%) to 5.17% and
10-year U.S. Treasury note yields rose 50 basis points to 5.07%, the highest
level since May 2002.

While the municipal yield curve also flattened during the period, the market's
strong technical position provided significant price support. This allowed
municipal bond prices to improve slightly or decline much less than those of
their taxable counterparts. As measured by Municipal Market Data, yields on
AAA-rated issues maturing in 30 years fell six basis points to 4.53% while
yields on AAA-rated issues maturing in 10 years rose 16 basis points to 4.08%.

For the most part, the recent outperformance of the tax-exempt market has been
fostered by a dramatic decline in new bond issuance so far in 2006. In 2005,
more than $408 billion in new long-term tax-exempt bonds was underwritten, a
new annual record and an increase of more than 13% compared to 2004. Over the
past six months, $170 billion in long-term municipal bonds was issued, a
decline of 8.6% versus the same period a year earlier. The record new issuance
in 2005 was largely triggered by a 47% increase in refunding activity as
issuers took advantage of historically low bond yields and a flattening yield
curve to refinance outstanding higher-couponed debt. Year-to-date through
April 2006, refunding issuance declined more than 55% relative to the first
four months of 2005. This decline has led some analysts to reduce their
forecasts for 2006 new issuance from the $350 billion - $370 billion range to
the $300 billion - $325 billion range. Lower annual issuance would further
solidify the tax-exempt market's already positive technical position.

The tax-exempt market has continued to enjoy strong investor demand. As
reported by the Investment Company Institute, long-term municipal bond funds
received net new monies of $5.0 billion in 2005 - a sharp reversal from the
$3.7 billion outflow in 2004. During the first quarter of 2006, tax-exempt
mutual funds received over $9.3 billion, slightly higher than the $8.9 billion
inflow during the same period in 2005. Recent statistics from AMG Data
Services indicate that, thus far in 2006, weekly cash flows into long-term
municipal bond funds averaged over $300 million, a significant improvement
from the weekly average of $65 million in December 2005.

Looking ahead, the fundamentals for the tax-exempt bond market appear
favorable, and continued positive cash flows are anticipated. Given their
attractive yields relative to comparable U.S. Treasury bonds, and the
prospects for reduced issuance in 2006, we believe municipal bonds could enjoy
solid results in the coming months.


MuniYield Arizona Fund, Inc.


Describe conditions in the State of Arizona.

Credit fundamentals for the State of Arizona remain firm, with accelerating
job growth, strong population gains and a state budget surplus that has
lawmakers contemplating what to do with the excess revenue. With the surplus
currently exceeding the legal rainy day limit of 7% of total budget, the
government is debating plans for trimming the excess cash. Proposals have
ranged from increasing government spending to cutting income and/or property
taxes. One potential area of concern on the economic front is the state's
housing market, which has appreciated rapidly but could be affected by higher
interest rates and affordability issues, potentially leading to some economic
volatility down the road.



SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS                                              APRIL 30, 2006



In March, voters in Phoenix approved the city's most significant general
obligation bond authorization package in almost 20 years. The largest portion
of the nearly $900 million package is dedicated to developing a new campus for
Arizona State University in downtown Phoenix. The city, which is the fifth
largest in the United States and one of the country's fastest-growing
metropolitan areas, expects this commitment to attract more ancillary
development. The remaining bond proposals included money for higher education
and health facilities, public safety, water and sewer upgrades, libraries and
community centers, parks and recreation, and affordable housing.


How did the Fund perform during the period?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the Common Stock of MuniYield
Arizona Fund, Inc. had net annualized yields of 5.88% and 5.34%, based on a
period-end per share net asset value of $14.12 and a per share market price of
$15.55, respectively, and $.412 per share income dividends. Over the same
period, the total investment return on the Fund's Common Stock was +1.75%,
based on a change in per share net asset value from $14.39 to $14.12, and
assuming reinvestment of all distributions.

Overall, the municipal market performed fairly well in a period of rising
interest rates. The yield curve continued to flatten, with the long end
rallying slightly while the short end underperformed. Against this backdrop,
Fund performance benefited from our strategy of moving further out on the
curve as opportunities presented themselves. Also contributing to Fund results
was our focus on maintaining an above-average yield and, consistent with that
goal, remaining fully invested.

For a description of the Fund's total investment return based on a change in
the per share market value of the Fund's Common Stock (as measured by the
trading price of the Fund's shares on the American Stock Exchange), and
assuming reinvestment of dividends, please refer to the Financial Highlights
section of this report. As a closed-end fund, the Fund's shares may trade in
the secondary market at a premium or discount to the Fund's net asset value.
As a result, total investment returns based on changes in the market value of
the Fund's Common Stock can vary significantly from total investment returns
based on changes in the Fund's net asset value.


What changes were made to the portfolio during the period?

We entered the period with a neutral posture as the Fed appeared to be
approaching a pause in its interest rate-hiking campaign. Although both the
Treasury and the municipal yield curves continued to flatten during the past
six months, the move was not nearly as dramatic as we have seen in prior
periods. Notably, the municipal curve retained a positive slope - particularly
relative to the Treasury curve, which actually inverted early in 2006 - and
this contributed to the market's and the Fund's positive performance.

The other important dynamic in the municipal market during the six-month
period was the drop in new issuance, especially fixed rate, longer-term
issuance. This decline in supply supported the performance of the municipal
market, but also meant there were fewer options for restructuring the
portfolio. Supply was particularly lacking in Arizona, where new issuance
declined roughly 13% compared to the same six-month period a year ago.
Although the lack of issuance and issuer diversity prevented us from altering
the portfolio's structure significantly, we were still able to take advantage
of inter-period volatility, using backups in market yields to selectively book
tax losses (that is, taking losses to offset any gains) and swap into other
bonds in instances where we thought it would be beneficial to the Fund. We
also identified some longer-dated, higher-yielding credits that were suitable
for investment. Finally, we sold some of the portfolio's premium-coupon, short-
call bonds into a strong market inquiry. Given that there was an interested
buyer in the market, we were able to sell the bonds at very favorable prices.
Generally speaking, we redeployed the proceeds from the sale into bonds with
maturities in the 25-year range and with coupons of approximately 5%.

We maintained ample exposure to uninsured Puerto Rico bonds despite some
substantial volatility during the period as the commonwealth wrestled with
budget concerns. Puerto Rico issues are tax-exempt in all 50 states, and we
are interested in them for their relatively attractive yields, liquidity and
diversification benefits - a particularly important consideration in a single
state portfolio.



SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS                                              APRIL 30, 2006



A Discussion With Your Funds' Portfolio Managers (continued)


For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the Fund's Auction Market
Preferred Stock (AMPS) had an average yield of 2.52% for Series A, 2.50% for
Series B and 2.87% for Series C. The Fed raised the short-term interest rate
target 100 basis points during the six-month period, and this continued to
affect the Fund's borrowing costs. We would expect additional increases in the
cost of funds to be more limited as the Fed nears a pause in its monetary
tightening campaign. Despite the interest rate increases during the period,
the tax-exempt yield curve maintained a positive slope, allowing us to borrow
at a lower rate than where we invest. This continued to generate an income
benefit to the holders of Common Stock from the leveraging of Preferred Stock.
However, should the spread between short-term and long-term interest rates
narrow, the benefits of leveraging will decline and, as a result, reduce the
yield on the Fund's Common Stock. At the end of the period, the Fund's
leverage amount, due to AMPS, was 38.77% of total net assets, before the
deduction of Preferred Stock. (For a more complete explanation of the benefits
and risks of leveraging, see page 70 of this report to shareholders.)


How would you characterize the Fund's position at the close of the period?

We remain focused on generating an attractive level of tax-exempt income for
our shareholders. The Fund ended the period fully invested and with an overall
neutral market posture, in keeping with our Municipal Investment Committee's
recommendation. After 16 consecutive interest rate hikes, the Fed may be near
a pause in its monetary tightening program. However, global economies and
certain pockets of the U.S. economy continue to show solid growth, leading us
to believe that it still may be early to become too aggressive. We believe a
neutral posture is prudent in the current environment and should provide for
competitive performance.

On a tactical basis, we have recently started to look at opportunities back
down the yield curve in the 15-year - 20-year area, as opposed to the
previously favored 25-year - 30-year range. We have found that we can move
five years - 10 years down the yield curve without sacrificing a significant
amount of yield. Given the degree of yield-curve flattening that has occurred
over the course of the Fed's interest rate-hiking campaign, we believe this
maturity range could be ready to outperform. As always, we will continue to
monitor the economy, the Fed and the municipal market, and stand ready to
adjust our approach as needed.


MuniYield California Fund, Inc.


Describe conditions in the State of California.

California's financial position continues to improve. Revenues for the first
eight months of fiscal year 2006 were 7.2% higher than the corresponding
period in fiscal year 2005, and estimates for revenue growth in fiscal year
2007 centered on 5.5%. Despite this favorable revenue trend, state spending
has risen at a faster rate, with expenditures 10.2% higher through the first
eight months of fiscal year 2006 than during the same period in the previous
year. In addition, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's proposed 2007 budget is
expected to increase by 11.4%. The overall budget retains a structural deficit
of approximately $4.7 billion, which limits further upward rating actions by
the major credit-rating agencies. We would like to see efforts to reduce the
structural imbalance in the revised 2007 budget. Bolstered by an anticipated
$7.5 billion of "unanticipated" tax revenues, the governor's May 2006-2007
budget revision totaled $131.1 billion with spending approximately 8.4% higher
than the previous year. These funds provide an opportunity to increase funding
for K-12 schools, fund the early retirement of economic recovery bonds,
increase reserve levels and fund several one-time projects. The overall budget
remains unbalanced by approximately $3.5 billion, however, sizably smaller
than the $12.5 billion imbalance confronted several years ago. Despite
retaining the structural imbalance, the improved revenue performance provided
a catalyst for the rating agencies to increase the state's long-term general
obligation ratings by Moody's (A2 to A1) and Standard & Poor's (A to A+). Both
rating agencies highlight the structural deficit limiting further rating
improvement to the AA rating category. It should be noted that the governor
and Legislature have reached an agreement on a capital improvement plan that
will call for the placement of general obligation bond measures totaling $37
billion on the November ballot.

As expected, the governor's sizable capital improvement plan, which initially
relied on the issuance of $68 billion in debt obligations, was challenged by
the state legislature and will likely be significantly revised in the coming
months. However, due to the gubernatorial election scheduled for this
November, we do not believe a final revision of this plan will be achieved
during calendar year 2006.



SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS                                              APRIL 30, 2006



How did the Fund perform during the period?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the Common Stock of MuniYield
California Fund, Inc. had net annualized yields of 4.79% and 5.28%, based on a
period-end per share net asset value of $14.65 and a per share market price of
$13.30, respectively, and $.348 per share income dividends. Over the same
period, the total investment return on the Fund's Common Stock was +2.13%,
based on a change in per share net asset value from $14.73 to $14.65, and
assuming reinvestment of all distributions.

The Fund's total return, based on net asset value, lagged the +2.49% average
return of its comparable Lipper category of California Municipal Debt Funds
for the six-month period. (Funds in this Lipper category invest primarily in
municipal debt issues exempt from taxation in the State of California.) The
underperformance was partially attributable to the Fund's relatively short
duration. Because bond prices fall as their yields rise, we assumed this
posture in an effort to achieve some price stability for the portfolio in the
face of rising interest rates. In addition, we maintained an underweight
exposure to lower-rated credits. This sector outperformed the broader market
during the period as investors sought out higher yields, and the under-
representation in the portfolio detracted from relative results.

For a description of the Fund's total investment return based on a change in
the per share market value of the Fund's Common Stock (as measured by the
trading price of the Fund's shares on the New York Stock Exchange), and
assuming reinvestment of dividends, please refer to the Financial Highlights
section of this report. As a closed-end fund, the Fund's shares may trade in
the secondary market at a premium or discount to the Fund's net asset value.
As a result, total investment returns based on changes in the market value of
the Fund's Common Stock can vary significantly from total investment returns
based on changes in the Fund's net asset value.


What changes were made to the portfolio during the period?

Municipal issuance was uncharacteristically light during the period,
particularly after a record-setting level of new issuance in calendar year
2005. The dearth in supply limited our ability to significantly restructure
the portfolio. Instead, our efforts were concentrated on moving the Fund
closer to a more neutral posture with respect to relative interest rate
exposure. This was consistent with the recommendation of our internal
Municipal Investment Committee.

In an effort to bolster the yield distribution to shareholders, we increased
the portion of Fund assets committed to inverse floating-rate product (a bond
or other type of debt instrument whose coupon rate has an inverse relationship
to short-term interest rates) as appropriately structured securities became
available. We favored this method of yield enhancement over the purchase of
lower-rated credits, where yield spreads versus higher-quality issues of
comparable maturity were already at historically tight levels. The Fund's
exposure to inverse floaters increased from 4% at the start of the period to
8% at the close of the period, still below the Fund's maximum allowable limit
of 15%.

We sought to take advantage of the tight relationship between yields on lower-
rated credits compared to AAA-rated issues by locking in profits in some of
our lower-rated holdings. Specifically, we sold the Fund's exposure to the
securities of Waste Management. These bonds (which are subject to the
alternative minimum tax) were purchased at a spread of 90 basis points above
the AAA scale and were sold during the period at a spread of 45 basis points
above that scale. Similar outperformance was realized in the zero coupon
sector. We sold dollar-denominated zero coupon bonds issued by Napa Valley at
a spread of 40 basis points above the AAA scale. These particular bonds had
been purchased at the end of 2005 at a spread of 80 basis points above
comparable maturity AAA-rated bonds.

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the Fund's Auction Market
Preferred Stock (AMPS) had average yields of 3.19% for Series A, 2.76% for
Series B, 2.75% for Series C and 2.82% for Series D. The Fed raised the short-
term interest rate target 100 basis points during the six-month period, and
this continued to affect the Fund's borrowing costs. We would expect
additional increases in the cost of funds to be more limited as the Fed nears
a pause in its monetary tightening campaign. Despite the interest rate
increases during the period, the tax-exempt yield curve maintained a positive
slope, allowing us to borrow at a lower rate than where we invest. This
continued to generate an income benefit to the holders of Common Stock from
the leveraging of Preferred Stock. However, should the spread between short-
term and long-term interest rates narrow, the benefits of leveraging will
decline and, as a result, reduce the yield on the Fund's Common Stock. At the
end of the period, the Fund's leverage amount, due to AMPS, was 35.94% of
total net assets, before the deduction of Preferred Stock. (For a more
complete explanation of the benefits and risks of leveraging, see page 70 of
this report to shareholders.)

A Discussion With Your Funds' Portfolio Managers (continued)



How would you characterize the Fund's position at the close of the period?

The Fund ended the period with a neutral duration posture relative to its
California municipal bond fund peers. We remain committed to protecting the
Fund's net asset value and will continue to address the income distribution
potential of the portfolio through the use of inverse floating-rate product.
In fact, the Fund recently has been able to add to its dividend reserves (the
net income earned but not required to be distributed monthly), despite the
aforementioned rise in short-term borrowing costs.

Tight credit spreads discourage us from participating actively in the lower-
quality portion of the market, as we see little relative value from a risk/
reward standpoint at this time. Consequently, we ended the period with a very
high-quality portfolio with more than 84% of the Fund's net assets rated AA or
higher and 78.6% rated AAA.

will call for the placement of general obligation bond measures totaling $37
billion on the November ballot.

As expected, the governor's sizable capital improvement plan, which initially
relied on the issuance of $68 billion in debt obligations, was challenged by
the state legislature and will likely be significantly revised in the coming
months. However, due to the gubernatorial election scheduled for this
November, we do not believe a final revision of this plan will be achieved
during calendar year 2006.


How did the Fund perform during the period?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the Common Stock of MuniYield
California Insured Fund, Inc. had net annualized yields of 5.82% and 5.83%,
based on a period-end per share net asset value of $14.66 and a per share
market price of $14.64, respectively, and $.423 per share income dividends.
Over the same period, the total investment return on the Fund's Common Stock
was +1.84%, based on a change in per share net asset value from $14.82 to
$14.66, and assuming reinvestment of all distributions.

The Fund's total return, based on net asset value, lagged the +2.17% average
return of its comparable Lipper category of California Insured Municipal Debt
Funds for the six-month period. (Funds in this Lipper category invest
primarily in municipal debt issues exempt from taxation in the State of
California and insured as to timely payment.) For some time, our investment
strategy has been focused on achieving a high level of current income for our
shareholders. This has been achieved through maintaining an above-average
coupon accrual, which has allowed the Fund to provide a highly competitive
yield. On a total return basis, the underperformance for the period was
partially attributable to the Fund's relatively short duration. Because bond
prices fall as their yields rise, we assumed this short duration posture in an
effort to achieve some price stability for the portfolio in the face of rising
interest rates. In addition, we maintained an underweight exposure to lower-
rated credits. This sector outperformed the broader market during the period
as investors sought out higher yields, and the under-representation in the
portfolio detracted from relative results.



SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS                                              APRIL 30, 2006



For a description of the Fund's total investment return based on a change in
the per share market value of the Fund's Common Stock (as measured by the
trading price of the Fund's shares on the New York Stock Exchange), and
assuming reinvestment of dividends, please refer to the Financial Highlights
section of this report. As a closed-end fund, the Fund's shares may trade in
the secondary market at a premium or discount to the Fund's net asset value.
As a result, total investment returns based on changes in the market value of
the Fund's Common Stock can vary significantly from total investment returns
based on changes in the Fund's net asset value.


What changes were made to the portfolio during the period?

Municipal issuance was uncharacteristically light during the period,
particularly after a record-setting level of new issuance in calendar year
2005. The dearth in supply limited our ability to significantly restructure
the portfolio. Instead, our efforts were concentrated on moving the Fund
closer to a more neutral posture with respect to relative interest rate
exposure, consistent with the recommendation of our internal Municipal
Investment Committee. To that end, we purchased a limited amount of longer-
maturity bonds as interest rates increased, effectively extending the Fund's
duration. These purchases were financed through the sale of prerefunded bonds
with shorter maturities.

Our efforts during the period also centered on enhancing the yield
distribution to shareholders. To accomplish this, we increased the portion of
Fund assets committed to inverse floating-rate product (a bond or other type
of debt instrument whose coupon rate has an inverse relationship to short-term
interest rates) as appropriately structured securities became available. The
Fund's exposure to inverse floaters increased from 9% at the start of the
period to 12% at the close of the period, still below the Fund's maximum
allowable limit of 15%. We favored this method of yield enhancement over the
purchase of lower-rated credits. In fact, we intentionally underutilized the
portion of net assets that we are permitted to invest in lower-rated
securities given that yield spreads versus higher-quality issues of comparable
maturity were already at historically tight levels. We prefer a higher-quality
asset mix in such an environment, and ended the period with 94.6% of Fund
assets rated AAA.

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the Fund's Auction Market
Preferred Stock (AMPS) had average yields of 2.76% for Series A, 2.71% for
Series B, 2.73% for Series C, 3.14% for Series D, 2.73% for Series E and 2.94%
for Series F. The Fed raised the short-term interest rate target 100 basis
points during the six-month period, and this continued to affect the Fund's
borrowing costs. We would expect additional increases in the cost of funds to
be more limited as the Fed nears a pause in its monetary tightening campaign.
Despite the interest rate increases during the period, the tax-exempt yield
curve maintained a positive slope, allowing us to borrow at a lower rate than
where we invest. This continued to generate an income benefit to the holders
of Common Stock from the leveraging of Preferred Stock. However, should the
spread between short-term and long-term interest rates narrow, the benefits of
leveraging will decline and, as a result, reduce the yield of the Fund's
Common Stock. At the end of the period, the Fund's leverage amount, due to
AMPS, was 35.32% of total net assets, before the deduction of Preferred Stock.
(For a more complete explanation of the benefits and risks of leveraging, see
page 70 of this report to shareholders.)


How would you characterize the Fund's position at the close of the period?

The Fund ended the period with a neutral duration posture relative to its
California insured municipal bond fund peers. We remain committed to
protecting the Fund's net asset value and will continue to address the income
distribution potential of the portfolio through the use of inverse floating-
rate product. Tight credit spreads discourage us from participating actively
in the lower-quality portion of the market, as we see little relative value
from a risk/ reward standpoint at this time. Consequently, we ended the period
with a very high-quality portfolio. We are focused on enhancing the Fund's
yield through investment in AAA-rated leveraged product, effectively seizing
the opportunity presented by the relatively steep tax-exempt yield curve. We
find this strategy to be more prudent than purchasing lower-rated credits at
current unattractive spreads.

A Discussion With Your Funds' Portfolio Managers (continued)


MuniYield Florida Fund


Describe conditions in the State of Florida.

Florida's economy has outperformed that of both the nation and other southern
states, and appears likely to continue this trend in the foreseeable future.
The state's mix of solid demographics and increasing job growth among
diversified industries is expected to continue to encourage migration into the
state. Although national economic trends have put pressure on Florida, we
believe the state is well positioned given its record of proactive management
and financial flexibility.

Florida's enacted fiscal year 2005-2006 budget is $64.7 billion, an increase
of 12% from the prior year. The budget reflects a combination of spending
constraints, with spending below anticipated personal income growth, and
increased revenue growth. Of the increased revenue, not all is expected to be
permanent, as some stems primarily from the reconstruction and replacement of
property destroyed by hurricanes and, therefore, is not recurring.

Fiscal discipline has afforded the state the opportunity to provide tax relief
in the form of tax-free shopping days, reduced sales tax on equipment, tax
credits and a phaseout of the intangible tax. Three areas of the budget
account for 93% of the total expenditures - education at 52%, health and human
services at 26% and public safety at 15%. Revenues for the first four months
of the fiscal year were $602 million, 14% higher than the same period in the
prior fiscal year.


How did the Fund perform during the period?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the Common Shares of MuniYield
Florida Fund had net annualized yields of 5.62% and 5.99%, based on a period-
end per share net asset value of $14.79 and a per share market price of
$13.86, respectively, and $.412 per share income dividends. Over the same
period, the total investment return on the Fund's Common Shares was +2.11%,
based on a change in per share net asset value from $14.91 to $14.79, and
assuming reinvestment of all distributions.

The Fund's total return, based on net asset value, was generally competitive
with the +2.16% average return of the Lipper Florida Municipal Debt Funds
category for the six-month period. (Funds in this Lipper category limit their
investment to those securities exempt from taxation in the State of Florida.)
Performance benefited from our yield-curve strategy, specifically our emphasis
on longer-dated issues, which continued to outperform as the curve flattened.
Also contributing positively was our exposure to higher-yielding uninsured
credits, which outperformed the broader market as investors searched for yield
in the low interest rate environment. Our uninsured credits in the airline
sector performed particularly well. Of final note, the portfolio held some
bonds that had been advance refunded, which leads to strong price appreciation
for these credits and has benefited the Fund's total return.

These positives were offset somewhat by our exposure, in the form of
prerefunded bonds, to the intermediate part of the yield curve. This sector
continued to underperform as the curve flattened, although we retained many of
these bonds given their high acquisition yields and corresponding contribution
to the Fund's income stream. In addition, the Fund is precluded from investing
in non-investment grade municipal credits, which was somewhat of a
disadvantage relative to our Lipper peers as the lowest-quality bonds
outperformed.

For a description of the Fund's total investment return based on a change in
the per share market value of the Fund's Common Shares (as measured by the
trading price of the Fund's shares on the New York Stock Exchange), and
assuming reinvestment of dividends, please refer to the Financial Highlights
section of this report. As a closed-end fund, the Fund's shares may trade in
the secondary market at a premium or discount to the Fund's net asset value.
As a result, total investment returns based on changes in the market value of
the Fund's Common Shares can vary significantly from total investment returns
based on changes in the Fund's net asset value.


What changes were made to the portfolio during the period?

We did not alter our strategy or make meaningful changes to the portfolio's
composition during the six-month period. We continued to focus on increasing
the income provided to shareholders and muting the Fund's net asset value
volatility. To that end, we remained fully invested throughout the period in
order to augment yield.

In making new purchases, we generally focused on premium-coupon bonds in the
20-year - 25-year maturity range whenever they became available, although we
did begin to see value in the 15-year area of the curve and continue to
explore opportunities there. Given the extent of the curve flattening, spreads
are appearing wider now in the 20-year sector of the curve, so we are able to
capture some of the most attractive yields on the curve without having to
extend to the longest maturities.



SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS                                              APRIL 30, 2006



Issuance of Florida municipal bonds increased less than 3% during the period
versus the same six months a year ago. However, new issuance in the latter
three months was down 32% compared to the same three months in 2005. The
reduction in supply has meant few opportunities to restructure the portfolio.
For the most part, we are seeing supply concentrated in the 15-year - 20-year
area, most of these being insured issues with 4% to 4.5% coupons. We remain
committed to structuring bonds with 5% to 5.25% coupons, although the cost for
new issues with these characteristics has been prohibitive.

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the Fund's Auction Market
Preferred Shares (AMPS) had average yields of 3.01% for Series A, 2.94% for
Series B and 3.00% for Series C. The Fed raised the short-term interest rate
target 100 basis points during the six-month period, and this continued to
affect the Fund's borrowing costs. We would expect additional increases in the
cost of funds to be more limited as the Fed nears a pause in its monetary
tightening campaign. Despite the interest rate increases during the period,
the tax-exempt yield curve maintained a positive slope, allowing us to borrow
at a lower rate than where we invest. This continued to generate an income
benefit to the holders of Common Shares from the leveraging of Preferred
Shares. However, should the spread between short-term and long-term interest
rates narrow, the benefits of leveraging will decline and, as a result, reduce
the yield on the Fund's Common Shares. At the end of the period, the Fund's
leverage amount, due to AMPS, was 35.43% of total net assets, before the
deduction of Preferred Shares. (For a more complete explanation of the
benefits and risks of leveraging, see page 70 of this report to shareholders.)


How would you characterize the Fund's position at the close of the period?

We would characterize the Fund's position as fairly neutral in terms of
interest rate risk. At period-end, we were looking to increase the portfolio's
exposure to bonds in the 10-year - 20-year maturity range, where we see value
emerging. Given the degree of yield-curve flattening that has occurred over
the course of the Fed's interest rate-hiking campaign, we believe this
maturity range could be ready to outperform.

We remain fully invested, consistent with our efforts to augment shareholder
income, and intend to use periods of volatility to pursue higher-coupon bonds
whenever they are attractively priced.


MuniYield Michigan Insured Fund II, Inc.


Describe conditions in the State of Michigan.

The State of Michigan maintained credit ratings of Aa2, AA and AA with stable
outlooks from Moody's, Standard & Poor's and Fitch, respectively. All three
agencies downgraded the state in late 2004 or the first quarter of 2005,
citing the troubled automotive sector and weak revenue estimates. The
performance of the state's economy, which continues to lag the national
recovery as well as that of the Great Lakes region, is the key to future
ratings action. Given the possibilities of more job losses in the automotive
sector and a fiscal crisis in Detroit, at least one of the rating agencies
could downgrade Michigan in 2006 or place a negative outlook on the state's
credit.

The state recorded its fifth consecutive year of increasing unemployment in
2005, although the rate of annual job losses has declined each year since
2001. While the state has successfully managed its budget through conservative
revenue estimates and large spending cuts, the job losses have weighed on
revenue collections and could indicate longer-term economic problems for the
state. As a short-term measure to avoid further spending cuts, the governor
recently vetoed a repeal of the $1 billion business tax. On the upside,
Michigan's debt ratios are quite low for a populous state and indicate
relative flexibility in the ability to respond to economic downturns. The
state's pension system is well funded.


How did the Fund perform during the period?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the Common Stock of MuniYield
Michigan Insured Fund II, Inc. had net annualized yields of 5.64% and 5.75%,
based on a period-end per share net asset value of $14.31 and a per share
market price of $14.03, respectively, and $.400 per share income dividends.
Over the same period, the total investment return on the Fund's Common Stock
was +1.26%, based on a change in per share net asset value from $14.54 to
$14.31, and assuming reinvestment of all distributions.



SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS                                              APRIL 30, 2006



A Discussion With Your Funds' Portfolio Managers (continued)



The Fund's total return, based on net asset value, lagged the +1.94% average
return of the Lipper Michigan Municipal Debt Funds category for the six-month
period. (Funds in this Lipper category limit their investment to securities
exempt from taxation in Michigan or a city in Michigan.) The Fund's above-
average credit quality profile, as an insured fund, continued to negatively
impact total return performance. Lower-rated issues continued to be among the
best-performing assets during the period. Recent performance also has been
impacted by the Fund's considerable exposure to the intermediate sector of the
municipal bond yield curve, which has significantly underperformed as the
curve has flattened. Nevertheless, we retained many of these bonds in the
portfolio, as they provide a meaningful income benefit and their sale could
result in material taxable gains as well as declines in the Fund's dividend
stream.

For a description of the Fund's total investment return based on a change in
the per share market value of the Fund's Common Stock (as measured by the
trading price of the Fund's shares on the New York Stock Exchange), and
assuming reinvestment of dividends, please refer to the Financial Highlights
section of this report. As a closed-end fund, the Fund's shares may trade in
the secondary market at a premium or discount to the Fund's net asset value.
As a result, total investment returns based on changes in the market value of
the Fund's Common Stock can vary significantly from total investment returns
based on changes in the Fund's net asset value.


What changes were made to the portfolio during the period?

Despite the underperformance of the intermediate sector of the yield curve,
we chose not to take any drastic action with respect to our exposure to this
sector. We believe the current interest rate tightening cycle will end by
mid-2006, causing the municipal yield curve to again steepen somewhat and
potentially leading to strong performance in the intermediate maturity range.
This would allow the Fund's exposure to this portion of the curve to again be
a positive contributor to overall performance, as well as a source of
significant incremental income.

Portfolio activity in recent months largely involved the execution of bond
swaps that allowed us to add to the Fund's income stream. We have continued to
maintain the Fund's high credit quality, as the incremental yield gained from
buying lower-rated investment grade issues has remained historically narrow.
At April 30, 2006, approximately 86.7% of the Fund's assets was rated AAA.

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the Fund's Auction Market
Preferred Stock (AMPS) had average yields of 2.95% for Series A, 2.87% for
Series B and 2.99% for Series C. The Fed raised the short-term interest rate
target 100 basis points during the six-month period, and this continued to
affect the Fund's borrowing costs. We would expect additional increases in the
cost of funds to be more limited as the Fed nears a pause in its monetary
tightening campaign. Despite the interest rate increases during the period,
the tax-exempt yield curve maintained a positive slope, allowing us to borrow
at a lower rate than where we invest. This continued to generate an income
benefit to the holders of Common Stock from the leveraging of Preferred Stock.
However should the spread between short-term and long-term interest rates
narrow, the benefits of leveraging will decline and, as a result, reduce the
yield on the Fund's Common Stock. At the end of the period, the Fund's
leverage amount, due to AMPS, was 36.44% of total net assets, before the
deduction of Preferred Stock. (For a more complete explanation of the benefits
and risks of leveraging, see page 70 of this report to shareholders.)


How would you characterize the Fund's position at the close of the period?

We recently adopted a more positive stance on the municipal market. After 16
consecutive interest rate hikes, the Fed may be nearing a pause in its
monetary tightening campaign. We would expect the end of Fed tightening,
combined with modest economic growth and muted inflationary pressures, to
promote a gradual improvement in tax-exempt bond prices later this year,
underpinning our more constructive outlook. Conversely, we would view
accelerated economic activity and/or rising wage pressures as signals to
return to a more defensive positioning.

Overall, we intend to maintain the Fund's fully invested stance as we seek to
enhance shareholder income. Portfolio activity in the months ahead is likely
to be driven by our efforts to maintain the Fund's already attractive
distribution yield.



SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS                                              APRIL 30, 2006



MuniYield New York Insured Fund, Inc.


Describe conditions in the State of New York.

In December, credit-rating agency Moody's upgraded New York's rating to Aa3,
the state's highest rating from Moody's since 1975. Standard and Poor's and
Fitch maintained ratings of AA and AA-, respectively, and all three agencies
assign a stable outlook to the state's ratings. The New York economy continues
to improve and revenue collections are increasing. State tax collections
remain largely dependent on the performance of the financial sector, but tax
receipts over the past few years have been strong.

New York's 2006 fiscal year ended on March 31, and preliminary operating
results indicate a $2 billion surplus and a $945 million rainy day fund. The
2006 budget had closed an estimated $4 billion deficit. Crafting balanced
budgets beyond fiscal year 2006 will present a challenge given political
resistance to additional tax hikes and cuts in popular programs, as well as
pressure from local governments for pension and Medicaid relief, and new
education spending. Governor Pataki's $111 billion budget proposal for fiscal
year 2007 (which began April 1) includes an estimated $840 million in tax cuts
and applies the $2 billion surplus from 2006 toward out-year gaps. The
Legislature has not yet approved the 2007 budget, which currently does not
include any money for compliance with a court order on school funding.

Preliminary February 2006 employment numbers reflect a 1% increase from
February 2005 levels. New York ranks fifth highest among all states in per
capita income. Economic growth is disproportionately stronger in downstate New
York, while the upstate economy remains lackluster.


How did the Fund perform during the period?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the Common Stock of MuniYield
New York Insured Fund, Inc. had net annualized yields of 5.68% and 5.86%,
based on a period-end per share net asset value of $14.02 and a per share
market price of $13.60, respectively, and $.395 per share income dividends.
Over the same period, the total investment return on the Fund's Common Stock
was +1.19%, based on a change in per share net asset value from $14.26 to
$14.02, and assuming reinvestment of all distributions.

The Fund's total return, based on net asset value, lagged the +1.68% average
return of the Lipper New York Insured Municipal Debt Funds category for the
six-month period. (Funds in this Lipper category invest primarily in
securities exempt from taxation in New York and insured as to timely payment.)
The portfolio tended to be slightly longer durationthan its Lipper peers.
Because the municipal yield curve has maintained its positive slope, the Fund
has looked to enhance yield by favoring the long end of curve, where we also
perceived greater liquidity and long-term performance potential. Our focus on
longer-dated bonds was a positive as they outperformed shorter-term issues;
however, the longer overall duration made the portfolio more susceptible to
interest rate risk as rates rose late in the period. Also detracting from Fund
results somewhat were a number of bond calls, including some housing bonds and
higher-coupon, lower-rated issues that had been booked in the portfolio at
attractive yields. Nevertheless, the Fund continued to earn an above-average
distribution rate, allowing us to continue providing shareholders with an
attractive level of tax-exempt income.

For a description of the Fund's total investment return based on a change in
the per share market value of the Fund's Common Stock (as measured by the
trading price of the Fund's shares on the New York Stock Exchange), and
assuming reinvestment of dividends, please refer to the Financial Highlights
section of this report. As a closed-end fund, the Fund's shares may trade in
the secondary market at a premium or discount to the Fund's net asset value.
As a result, total investment returns based on changes in the market value of
the Fund's Common Stock can vary significantly from total investment returns
based on changes in the Fund's net asset value.


What changes were made to the portfolio during the period?

The two resounding themes during the period centered on tax-exempt bonds'
outperformance of their taxable counterparts and, contributing to the strong
performance, the limited new issuance in the municipal market. In New York,
new issuance was down 21% versus the same six-month period a year ago. The
reduced supply, combined with strong demand, meant heightened prices and
strong relative performance on the part of municipal bonds, but it also
limited our ability to restructure and diversify the portfolio to the extent
that we would have liked, as there were few new names from which to choose.



SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS                                              APRIL 30, 2006



A Discussion With Your Funds' Portfolio Managers (concluded)


Nevertheless, we were able to add two new issues to the portfolio. The first
was bonds of a Puerto Rico convention center, a newcomer to the market with
credit enhancement from insurer CIFG. This purchase allowed us to diversify
the portfolio somewhat, an especially important consideration in a single
state fund, and afforded us the valuable liquidity inherent in Puerto Rico
debt. The fact that the bonds came with insurance was particularly beneficial,
as we had been looking to reduce exposure to uninsured Puerto Rico credits in
favor of insured bonds. Overall, we reduced exposure to BBB-rated Puerto Rico
paper from 5.1% of net assets to 1% and increased our AAA exposure from 87.7%
to 89.7%, thereby maintaining our desired allocation to the Puerto Rico
market. The other new addition to the portfolio was bonds issued for the
rehabilitation and expansion of the Jacob Javitz Convention Center in New York
City. Overall, the new issues we purchased were 30-year bonds and had both 5%
and 4.5% coupons.

Also during the period, we sought to execute some tax loss swaps when yields
backed up and attractive opportunities presented themselves. This was somewhat
of a challenge given the limited supply. Overall, we aimed to balance our
desire to maintain an attractive yield with our goal of enhancing the
portfolio's total return potential.

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the Fund's Auction Market
Preferred Stock (AMPS) had average yields as follows: 2.98% for Series A,
2.74% for Series B, 2.89% for Series C, 2.73% for Series D, 3.14% for Series E
and 2.92% for Series F. The Fed raised the short-term interest rate target
another 100 basis points during the six-month period, and this continued to
affect the Fund's borrowing costs. We would expect additional increases in the
cost of funds to be more limited as the Fed nears a pause in its monetary
tightening campaign. Despite the interest rate increases during the period,
the tax-exempt yield curve maintained a positive slope, allowing us to borrow
at a lower interest rate than where we invest. This continued to generate an
income benefit to the holders of Common Stock from the leveraging of Preferred
Stock. However, should the spread between short-term and long-term interest
rates narrow, the benefits of leveraging will decline and, as a result, reduce
the yield on the Fund's Common Stock. At the end of the period, the Fund's
leverage amount, due to AMPS, was 35.46% of total net assets, before the
deduction of Preferred Stock. (For a more complete explanation of the benefits
and risks of leveraging, see page 70 of this report to shareholders.)


How would you characterize the portfolio's position at the close of the
period?

In terms of duration (that is, sensitivity to interest rate risk), the Fund
ended the period neutral to slightly long relative to its New York insured
peers. With the most recent interest rate hike on May 10, 2006, which brought
the federal funds rate to 5%, the central bank appears prepared to shift gears
from its "measured" program of interest rate hikes to a more data dependant
policy. Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, in an effort to avoid overtightening, has
indicated some willingness to observe the economy's reaction to the two-year
interest rate-hiking campaign and refine monetary policy later as conditions
dictate.

With that, we would expect to see value restored in the intermediate part of
the curve, which had suffered the most as the yield curve flattened during the
monetary tightening campaign, and a more moderate rally in the longer end.
Based on this scenario, we are targeting the intermediate to long maturity
range, essentially 20 years - 30 years. We expect new municipal supply to
remain fairly muted, creating a positive technical environment that should
allow municipal bonds to continue outperforming Treasury issues in the months
ahead. We continue to look for opportunities to diversify the Fund while also
seeking to balance yield and total return potential in the portfolio.

Notes to Financial Statements


1. Significant Accounting Policies:
MuniYield Arizona Fund, Inc., MuniYield California Fund, Inc., MuniYield
California Insured Fund, Inc., MuniYield Florida Fund, MuniYield Michigan
Insured Fund II, Inc. and MuniYield New York Insured Fund, Inc. (the "Funds"
or individually as the "Fund") are registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, as non-diversified, closed-end management investment
companies. The Funds' financial statements are prepared in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which may require the use of
management accruals and estimates. Actual results may differ from these
estimates. These unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments,
which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair
statement of the results for the interim period. All such adjustments are of
a normal, recurring nature. The Funds determine and make available for
publication the net asset values of their Common Stock/Shares on a daily
basis. Common Stock shares and Common Shares are listed on the New York Stock
Exchange under the symbol MYC for MuniYield California Fund, Inc., MCA for
MuniYield California Insured Fund, Inc., MYF for MuniYield Florida Fund, MYM
for MuniYield Michigan Insured Fund II, Inc. and MYN for MuniYield New York
Insured Fund, Inc. Common Stock is listed on the American Stock Exchange
under the symbol MZA for MuniYield Arizona Fund, Inc. The following is a
summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.

(a) Valuation of investments--Municipal bonds are traded primarily in the over-
the-counter ("OTC") markets and are valued at the last available bid price in
the OTC market or on the basis of values as obtained by a pricing service.
Pricing services use valuation matrixes that incorporate both dealer-supplied
valuations and valuation models. The procedures of the pricing service and its
valuations are reviewed by the officers of the Funds under the general
direction of the Board of Directors/Trustees. Such valuations and procedures
are reviewed periodically by the Board of Directors/Trustees of the Funds.
Financial futures contracts and options thereon, which are traded on
exchanges, are valued at their closing prices as of the close of such
exchanges. Options written or purchased are valued at the last sale price in
the case of exchange-traded options. In the case of options traded in the OTC
market, valuation is the last asked price (options written) or the last bid
price (options purchased). Swap agreements are valued by quoted fair
valuations received daily by the Funds' pricing service. Short-term
investments with a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost, which approximates market value, under which method the
investment is valued at cost and any premium or discount is amortized on a
straight line basis to maturity. Investments in open-end investment companies
are valued at their net asset value each business day. Securities and other
assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at
fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board
of Directors/Trustees of the Funds.

(b) Derivative financial instruments--Each Fund may engage in various
portfolio investment strategies both to increase the return of the Fund and to
hedge, or protect, their exposure to interest rate movements and movements in
the securities markets. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the
contract or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.

* Financial futures contracts--Each Fund may purchase or sell financial
futures contracts and options on such futures contracts. Futures contracts are
contracts for delayed delivery of securities at a specific future date and at
a specific price or yield. Upon entering into a contract, the Fund deposits
and maintains as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on
which the transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees
to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily
fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as
variation margin and are recorded by the Fund as unrealized gains or losses.
When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to
the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and
the value at the time it was closed.

* Options--Each Fund may purchase and write call and put options. When the
Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Fund is
reflected as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability
is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the
option written.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)


When a security is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the
related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis
of the security acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the
security sold. When an option expires (or the Fund enters into a closing
transaction), the Fund realizes a gain or loss on the option to the extent
of the premiums received or paid (or gain or loss to the extent the cost of
the closing transaction exceeds the premium paid or received).

Written and purchased options are non-income producing investments.

* Forward interest rate swaps--Each Fund may enter into forward interest rate
swaps. In a forward interest rate swap, the Fund and the counterparty agree to
make periodic net payments on a specified notional contract amount, commencing
on a specified future effective date, unless terminated earlier. When the
agreement is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss in an amount
equal to the value of the agreement.

(c) Income taxes--It is each Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders.
Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

(d) Security transactions and investment income--Security transactions are
recorded on the dates the transactions are entered into (the trade dates).
Realized gains and losses on security transactions are determined on the
identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend dates.
Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. The Funds amortize all
premiums and discounts on debt securities.

(e) Dividends and distributions--Dividends from net investment income are
declared and paid monthly. Distributions of capital gains are recorded on the
ex-dividend dates.

(f) Offering costs--Direct expenses relating to the public offering of the
Fund's Preferred Stock/Shares were charged to capital at the time of issuance
of the shares. Any adjustments to estimates of offering costs were recorded
back to capital.


2. Investment Advisory Agreement and Transactions with Affiliates:
Each Fund has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with Fund Asset

The Benefits and Risks of Leveraging


The Funds utilize leveraging to seek to enhance the yield and net asset value
of their Common Shares/Common Stock. However, these objectives cannot be
achieved in all interest rate environments. To leverage, the Funds issue
Preferred Shares/Stock, which pay dividends at prevailing short-term interest
rates, and invests the proceeds in long-term municipal bonds. The interest
earned on these investments, net of dividends to Preferred Shares/Stock, is
paid to Common Shareholders/Common Stock shareholders in the form of
dividends, and the value of these portfolio holdings is reflected in the per
share net asset value of the Funds' Common Shares/Stock. However, in order to
benefit Common Shareholders/Common Stock shareholders, the yield curve must be
positively sloped; that is, short-term interest rates must be lower than long-
term interest rates. At the same time, a period of generally declining
interest rates will benefit Common Shareholders/Common Stock shareholders. If
either of these conditions change, then the risks of leveraging will begin to
outweigh the benefits.

To illustrate these concepts, assume a fund's Common Shares/Stock
capitalization of $100 million and the issuance of Preferred Shares/Stock for
an additional $50 million, creating a total value of $150 million available
for investment in long-term municipal bonds. If prevailing short-term interest
rates are approximately 3% and long-term interest rates are approximately 6%,
the yield curve has a strongly positive slope. The fund pays dividends on the
$50 million of Preferred Shares/Stock based on the lower short-term interest
rates. At the same time, the fund's total portfolio of $150 million earns the
income based on long-term interest rates.

In this case, the dividends paid to Preferred Shareholders/ Preferred Stock
shareholders are significantly lower than the income earned on the fund's long-
term investments, and therefore the Common Shareholders/Common Stock
shareholders are the beneficiaries of the incremental yield.

However, if short-term interest rates rise, narrowing the differential between
short-term and long-term interest rates, the incremental yield pickup on the
Common Shares/Stock will be reduced or eliminated completely. At the same
time, the market value of the fund's Common Shares/Stock (that is, its price
as listed on the American Stock Exchange) may, as a result, decline.
Furthermore, if long-term interest rates rise, the Common Shares'/Stocks' net
asset value will reflect the full decline in the price of the portfolio's
investments, since the value of the fund's Preferred Shares/Stock does not
fluctuate. In addition to the decline in net asset value, the market value of
the fund's Common Shares/Stock may also decline.

As a part of their investment strategy, the Funds may invest in certain
securities whose potential income return is inversely related to changes in a
floating interest rate ("inverse floaters"). In general, income on inverse
floaters will decrease when short-term interest rates increase and increase
when short-term interest rates decrease. Investments in inverse floaters may
be characterized as derivative securities and may subject the Funds to the
risks of reduced or eliminated interest payments and losses of invested
principal. In addition, inverse floaters have the effect of providing
investment leverage and, as a result, the market value of such securities will
generally be more volatile than that of fixed rate, tax-exempt securities. To
the extent the Funds invest in inverse floaters, the market value of each
Fund's portfolio and the net asset value of each Fund's shares may also be
more volatile than if the Funds did not invest in these securities. As of
April 30, 2006, the percentages of MuniYield Arizona Fund, Inc.'s, MuniYield
California Fund, Inc.'s, MuniYield California Insured Fund, Inc.'s, MuniYield
Florida Fund's, MuniYield Michigan Insured Fund II, Inc.'s and MuniYield New
York Insured Fund, Inc.'s total net assets invested in inverse floaters were
7.95%, 11.13%, 14.03%, 6.45%, 10.71% and 11.24%, respectively, before the
deduction of Preferred Shares/Stock.
