1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
Western
Asset High Income Fund Inc. (the Fund) was incorporated in Maryland and is
registered as a diversified, closed-end management investment company under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act). The Fund seeks to
maintain a high level of current income by investing at least 80% of its net
assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in high-yield debt
securities issued by U.S. and foreign corporations and foreign governments. As
a secondary objective, the Fund seeks capital appreciation.
The following are significant accounting
policies consistently followed by the Fund and are in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
(a) Investment Valuation.
Debt securities are valued at the mean
between the last quoted bid and asked prices provided by an independent pricing
service, which are based on transactions in debt obligations, quotations from
bond dealers, market transactions in comparable securities and various other
relationships between securities. Publicly traded foreign government debt
securities are typically traded internationally in the over-the-counter market,
and are valued at the mean between the last quoted bid and asked prices as of
the close of business of that market. Futures contracts are valued daily at the
settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they
are traded. Equity securities for which market quotations are available are
valued at the last reported sales price or official closing price on the
primary market or exchange on which they trade.
When prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect
fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly
affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the
security is principally traded, but before the Fund calculates its net asset
value, the Fund values these securities at fair value as determined in
accordance with procedures approved by the Funds Board of Directors.
Short-term obligations with maturities of 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost, which approximates fair value.
The
Fund has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification Topic 820 (ASC
Topic 820). ASC Topic 820 establishes a single definition of fair value,
creates a three-tier hierarchy as a framework for measuring fair value based on
inputs used to value the Funds investments, and requires additional disclosure
about fair value. The hierarchy of inputs is summarized below.
·
Level 1quoted prices in
active markets for identical investments
·
Level 2other significant
observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest
rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
·
Level 3significant
unobservable inputs (including the Funds own assumptions in determining the
fair value of investments)
The
inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an
indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
The
Fund uses valuation techniques to measure fair value that are consistent with
the market approach and/or income approach, depending on the type of the
security and the particular circumstance. The market approach uses prices and
other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical
or comparable securities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to
convert future amounts to a single present amount.
The
following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Funds assets carried
at fair value:

(1)
This amount is
included in net realized gain (loss) from investment transactions.
(2)
Change in
unrealized appreciation (depreciation) includes net unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) resulting from changes in investment values during the reporting
period and the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) when gains or losses are realized.
(b) Repurchase Agreements.
The Fund may
enter into repurchase agreements with institutions that its investment adviser
has determined are creditworthy. Each repurchase agreement is recorded at cost.
Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, a fund takes possession of
an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to
repurchase, and of the fund to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price
and time, thereby determining the yield during a funds holding period. When
entering into repurchase agreements, it is the Funds policy that its custodian
or a third party custodian, acting on the Funds behalf, take possession of the
underlying collateral securities, the market value of which, at all times, at
least equals the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including
accrued interest. To the extent that any repurchase transaction maturity
exceeds one business day, the value of the collateral is marked to market and
measured against the value of the agreement to ensure the adequacy of the
collateral. If the counterparty defaults, the Fund generally has the right to
use the collateral to satisfy the terms of the repurchase transaction. However,
if the market value of the collateral declines during the period in which the
Fund seeks to assert its rights or if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with
respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the
Fund may be delayed or limited.
(c) Loan
Participations.
The Fund may invest in loans
arranged through private negotiation between one or more financial
institutions. The Funds investment in any such loan may be in the form of a
participation in or an assignment of the loan. In connection with purchasing
participations, the Fund generally will have no right to enforce compliance by
the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement related to the loan, or any
rights of off-set against the borrower and the Fund may not benefit directly
from any collateral supporting the loan in which it has purchased the
participation.
13
The Fund assumes the credit
risk of the borrower, the lender that is selling the participation and any
other persons interpositioned between the Fund and the borrower. In the event
of the insolvency of the lender selling the participation, the Fund may be
treated as a general creditor of the lender and may not benefit from any
off-set between the lender and the borrower.
(d) Futures Contracts.
The Fund may use futures contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against,
changes in the value of interest rates.
A futures
contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or sale of an asset at
a specified price on a specified date.
Upon entering into a futures
contract, the Fund is required to deposit cash or cash equivalents with a
broker in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This
is known as the initial margin and subsequent payments (variation margin)
are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuation
in the value of the contract. For certain futures, including foreign
denominated futures, variation margin is not settled daily, but is recorded as
a net variation margin payable or receivable. Futures contracts are valued
daily at the settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on
which they are traded.
Futures
contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss. In addition, there is the
risk that the Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because
of an illiquid secondary market.
(e) Forward
Foreign Currency Contracts.
The Fund may enter into a
forward foreign currency contract to hedge against foreign currency exchange
rate risk on its non-U.S. dollar denominated securities or to facilitate
settlement of a foreign currency denominated portfolio transaction. A forward foreign currency contract is an
agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price with delivery
and settlement at a future date. The contract is marked to market daily and the
change in value is recorded by the Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. When a
forward foreign currency contract is closed, through either delivery or offset
by entering into another forward foreign currency contract, the Fund recognizes
a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the
contract at the time it was opened and the value of the contract at the time it
is closed.
When entering into a forward
foreign currency contract, the Fund bears the risk of an unfavorable change in
the foreign exchange rate underlying the forward foreign currency contract.
Risks may also arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential
inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
(f) Foreign Currency
Translation.
Investment securities and other
assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into
U.S. dollar amounts based upon prevailing exchange rates on the date of
valuation. Purchases and sales of
investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign
currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts based upon prevailing
exchange rates on the respective dates of such transactions.
Foreign security and currency transactions may involve
certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of U.S.
dollar denominated transactions as a result of, among other factors, the
possibility of lower levels of governmental supervision and regulation of
foreign securities markets and the possibility of political or economic
instability.
(g) Credit and Market Risk.
The Fund invests in high-yield
and emerging market instruments that are subject to certain credit and market
risks. The yields of high-yield and emerging market debt obligations reflect,
among other things, perceived credit and market risks. The Funds investment in
securities rated below investment grade typically involve risks not associated
with higher rated securities including, among others, greater risk related to
timely and ultimate payment of interest and principal, greater market price
volatility and less liquid secondary market trading. The consequences of
political, social, economic or diplomatic changes may have disruptive effects
on the market prices of investments held by the Fund. The Funds investment in
non-U.S. dollar denominated securities may also result in foreign currency
losses caused by devaluations and exchange rate fluctuations.
(h) Security Transactions.
Security transactions are accounted for on a
trade date basis.

During
the period ended March 31, 2010 the Fund had average market values of $243,031,
$980,821 and $94,838, in futures contracts (to buy), futures contracts (to sell)
and forward foreign currency contracts (to sell), respectively.
The
Fund has several credit related contingent features that if triggered would
allow its derivatives counterparties to close out and demand payment or
additional collateral to cover their exposure from the Fund. Credit related contingent features are
established between the Fund and its derivatives counterparties to reduce the
risk that the Fund will not fulfill its payment obligations to its counterparties.
These triggering features include, but are not limited to, a percentage
decrease in the Funds net assets and or percentage decrease in the Funds Net
Asset Value or NAV. The contingent features are established within the Funds
International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements
which govern positions in swaps, over-the-counter options, and forward currency
exchange contracts for each individual counterparty.
