                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Pension and Benefits Committees of
Johnson & Johnson

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of the Johnson & Johnson Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") at December 31,
2000 and 1999, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the
years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held
for investment purposes and schedule of reportable transactions are presented
for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These supplemental
schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. The supplemental
schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits
of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.       Organization:


         The Johnson & Johnson Retirement Savings Plan (the "Plan") is a defined
         contribution plan which was established on March 1, 1990 for eligible
         employees of certain subsidiaries of Johnson & Johnson ("J&J" or the
         "Company") located in Puerto Rico which have adopted the Plan. The Plan
         was designed to provide eligible employees with an opportunity to
         strengthen their financial security at retirement by providing an
         incentive to save and invest regularly. The funding of the Plan is made
         through employee and Company contributions. The assets of the Plan are
         maintained and transactions therein are executed by the trustee, Banco
         Popular de Puerto Rico.

2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:


         Valuation of Investments:

         Equity investments in the Johnson & Johnson Stock Fund, administered by
         Banco Popular de Puerto Rico, are valued at the closing market price on
         the last business day of the year. Equity investments in the Equity
         Fund, managed by the Capital Research and Management Company, represent
         shares of a registered investment company and are valued at the quoted
         market price which represents the net asset value of shares held by the
         Plan at year-end.

         The cost of equity investments in the Johnson & Johnson Stock Fund is
         recorded at the average market price of the stock transactions for the
         month during which the contribution is made. Units in the Equity Fund
         are purchased throughout the month at the prevailing quoted market
         price on those dates.

         Deposits in short-term investments in the Short-Term Investment Fund
         are principally purchases of shares of the Prime Portfolio of Vanguard
         Money Market Reserves, Inc. The Portfolio invests in securities which
         mature in less than one year. The value of this portfolio is the market
         value on the last business day of the year.

         Temporary cash investments are stated at redemption value which
         approximates fair value.

         Transfers:

         Transfers among funds, which are made at the participant's election,
         have been presented as assets transferred in the Statement of Changes
         in Net Assets Available for Benefits with Fund Information.

                    JOHNSON & JOHNSON RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN
                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued

2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued):


         Use of Estimates:

         The preparation of the Plan's financial statements in conformity with
         accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
         America requires the plan administrator to make estimates and
         assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available
         for benefits at the date of the financial statements and the changes in
         net assets available for benefits during the reporting period and, when
         applicable, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the
         date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from
         those estimates.

         Risks and Uncertainties:

         The Plan provides for various participant investment options in funds
         which can invest in any combination of stocks, bonds, fixed income
         securities, mutual funds, and other investment securities. Investment
         securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market
         and credit. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment
         securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value
         of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that
         changes in risks in the near term would materially affect participants'
         account balances and the amounts reported in the Statements of Net
         Assets Available for Benefits with Fund Information and the Statements
         of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits with Fund Information.

         Other:

         Interest and dividend income are recorded as earned on the accrual
         basis. Purchases and sales of investment securities are reflected on a
         trade-date basis. Gains and losses on sales of investment securities
         are determined on the average cost method.

         All third party administrative expenses are paid by the Plan, except
         costs of entering new investment vehicles which are paid primarily by
         J&J.

3.       Contributions:

         Participating employees may contribute a minimum of 3% up to a maximum
         of 10% pre-tax and/or 1% to 10% post-tax of their base salary. Annual
         pre-tax contributions may not exceed $8,000 in 2000 or 1999 under
         Puerto Rico law. In 2000, the Company contributes to the Plan, out of
         current or accumulated profits, an amount equal to 75% of the
         employee's pre-tax contributions for the Plan year up to a maximum of
         6% and in 1999, the company contributes to the Plan, out of current or
         accumulated profits, an amount equal to 66-2/3% of the employee's
         pre-tax contributions for the Plan year.

         Contributions are made to the Plan by participants through payroll

6.       Tax Status:

         The Plan constitutes as a qualified plan under Section 165(a) of the
         Puerto Rico Income Tax Act of 1954 as amended, (the "ITA"), and the
         Plan and the related trust accounts are exempt from Puerto Rico income
         taxes under Section 165(a) and 165(e) of the ITA.

         The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter.
         However, the Plan administrator and the Plan's tax counsel believe that
         the Plan is currently designed and operated in compliance with the
         applicable requirements of the Puerto Rico tax code. Therefore, no
         provision for income taxes has been included in the Plan's financial
         statements.

7.       Termination Priorities:

         The Company has the right to terminate the Plan at any time and in the
