PART I

Item 1. Business

IDS Certificate Company (IDSC) is incorporated under the
laws of Delaware. Its principal executive offices are located in
the IDS Tower, Minneapolis, Minnesota, and its telephone number
is (612) 671-3131. IDS Financial Corporation (IDS), a Delaware
corporation, IDS Tower 10, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55440-0010,
owns 100% of the outstanding voting securities of IDSC. IDS is a
wholly owned subsidiary of American Express Company (American
Express), a New York Corporation, with headquarters at American
Express Tower, World Financial Center, New York, New York.

IDSC is a face-amount certificate investment company
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act).
IDSC is in the business of issuing face-amount certificates.
Face-amount certificates issued by IDSC entitle the certificate
holder to receive, at maturity, a stated amount of money and
interest or credits declared from time to time by IDSC, in its
discretion.

IDSC is continuously engaged in new product development.
IDSC currently offers seven certificates to the public: "IDS
Future Value Certificate", "IDS Cash Reserve Certificate", "IDS
Flexible Savings Certificate" (formerly "IDS Variable Term
Certificate"), "IDS Installment Certificate", "IDS Stock Market
Certificate", "IDS Investors Certificate" and "IDS Special
Deposits". The IDS Special Deposits is only offered for sale in
London, England, and is not registered for sale in the United
States. All certificates are currently sold without a sales
charge. The IDS Installment Certificate, the IDS Flexible
Savings Certificate, the IDS Stock Market Certificate, the IDS
Investors Certificate and the IDS Special Deposits currently bear
surrender charges for premature surrenders. All of the above
described certificates, except the IDS Special Deposits, are
distributed pursuant to a Distribution Agreement with IDS
Financial Services Inc., an affiliate of IDSC. With respect to
the IDS Investors Certificate and the IDS Stock Market
Certificate, IDS Financial Services Inc., in turn, has a Selling
Agent Agreement with American Express Bank International, a
subsidiary of American Express, for selling the certificate. IDS
Financial Services Inc. also distributes the IDS Stock Market
Certificate. With respect to the IDS Special Deposits, IDSC has
a Marketing Agreement with American Express Bank Ltd., a
subsidiary of American Express, for marketing the certificate.

IDSC also offers one certificate in connection with certain
employee benefit plans available to eligible IDS employees,
financial planners and retirees. This certificate is called the
Series D-1 Investment Certificate.

Except for the IDS Investors Certificate and the IDS Special
Deposits, all of the certificates are available as qualified
investments for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs), or 401(k)
plans and other qualified retirement plans.


PAGE 4
The specified maturities of the certificates range from four
to twenty years. Within that maturity period, most certificates
have terms ranging from three to thirty-six months. Interest
rates change and certificateholders can surrender their
certificates without penalty at term end.

The IDS Future Value Certificate is a single payment
certificate that guarantees interest in advance for a 4, 5, 6, 7,
8, 9 or 10-year maturity, at the buyer's option.

The IDS Cash Reserve Certificate is a single pay certificate
that permits additional investments and guarantees interest in
advance for a three-month term.

The IDS Flexible Savings Certificate is a single payment
certificate that permits a limited amount of additional payments
and guarantees interest in advance for a term of 6, 12, 18, 24,
30 or 36 months, at the buyer's option.

The IDS Installment Certificate is an installment payment
certificate that declares interest in advance for a three-month
period and offers bonuses in the third through sixth years for
regular investments.

The IDS Stock Market Certificate is a single payment
certificate that offers the certificate holder the opportunity to
have all or part of his interest tied to stock market performance,
as measured by a broad stock market index, with guaranteed return
of principal. The holder can also choose to earn a guaranteed
fixed rate of interest. In addition to being sold to IDS clients
pursuant to a Distribution Agreement with IDS Financial Services
Inc., this certificate is sold by American Express Bank
International (AEBI), under a Selling Agent Agreement with IDS
Financial Services Inc. to AEBI's clients who are neither citizens
nor residents of the United States.

The IDS Investors Certificate is a single payment
certificate that permits additional payments within 15 days of
term renewal. Interest rates are guaranteed in advance for a
term of 1, 2, 3, 6, 12, 24 or 36 months, at the buyer's option.
This certificate is currently sold by AEBI, through a Selling
Agent Agreement with IDS Financial Services Inc., only to AEBI's
clients who are neither citizens nor residents of the United
States.

The IDS Special Deposits is a single payment certificate
that permits additional payments within 15 days of term renewal.
Interest rates are guaranteed in advance for a term of 1, 2, 3,
6, 12, 24 or 36 months, at the buyer's option. This certificate
is currently sold by American Express Bank Ltd. ("AEB") in the
London office, through a Marketing Agreement with IDSC, only to
AEB's clients who are neither citizens nor residents of the
United States. This certificate is not registered for sale in
the United States.


PAGE 5
IDSC is by far the largest issuer of face-amount certificates
in the United States. However, such certificates compete with many
other investments offered by banks, savings and loan associations,
mutual funds, broker-dealers and others, which may be viewed by
potential clients as offering a comparable or superior combination
of safety and return on investment. In particular, some of IDSC's
products are designed to be competitive with the types of
investment offered by banks and thrifts. Since IDSC's face-amount
certificates are securities, their offer and sale are subject to
regulation under federal and state securities laws. IDSC's
certificates are backed by its qualified assets on deposit and are
not insured by any governmental agency.

For all of the certificates, except for the IDS Investors
Certificate and the IDS Special Deposits, IDSC's current policy
is to re-evaluate the certificate rates weekly to respond to
marketplace changes. For the IDS Investors Certificate and the
IDS Special Deposits, IDSC's current policy is to re-evaluate the
rates on a daily basis. For each product, IDSC refers to an
independent index to set the rates for new sales. Except for IDS
Special Deposits, IDSC must set the rates within a specified
range of the rate from such index. For renewals, IDSC uses such
rates as an indication of the competitors' rates, but is not
required to set rates within a specified range.

For the IDS Flexible Savings Certificate, IDS Cash Reserve
Certificate and the IDS Series D-1 Investment Certificate, the
published rates of the BANK RATE MONITOR National Index (trademark) for
various length bank certificates of deposit are used as the guide
in setting rates. For the IDS Installment Certificate, the
average interest rate for money market deposit accounts, as
published by the BANK RATE MONITOR National Index (trademark), North Palm
Beach, FL, is used as a guide in setting rates. For the IDS
Future Value Certificate, the average quoted yields of certain
U.S. Treasury Bonds for similar maturities, as published in the
Wall Street Journal and the New York Times, are used as a guide
in setting rates. For the IDS Investors Certificate and IDS
Special Deposits, the published average rates for comparable
length dollar deposits available on an interbank basis, referred
to as the London Interbank Offered Rates (LIBOR), are used as a
guide in setting rates.

To compete with popular short-term investment vehicles such
as certificates of deposit, money market certificates and money
market mutual funds that offer comparable yields, liquidity and
safety of principal, IDSC offers the IDS Cash Reserve Certificate
and the IDS Flexible Savings Certificate. The yields and
features on these products are designed to be competitive with
such short-term products. The IDS Investors Certificate and IDS
Special Deposits also compete with short-term products but use
LIBOR rates. The IDS Future Value Certificate has certain
features similar to those of zero coupon bonds and is intended to
compete with that type of investment as well as with intermediate
to long-term certificates of deposit. The IDS Installment
Certificate is intended to help clients save systematically and
may compete with passbook savings and NOW accounts. The IDS
Stock Market Certificate is designed to offer interest tied to a

PAGE 6
major stock market index and guaranteed principal. Certain banks
offer certificates of deposit that have features similar to the
Stock Market Certificate.

IDSC's gross income is derived principally from interest and
dividends generated by its investments. IDSC's net income is
determined by deducting from such gross income its provision for
certificate reserves, and other expenses, including taxes, the
fee paid to IDS for advisory and other services and the
distribution fees paid to IDS Financial Services Inc. and AEBI
and marketing fees paid to AEB.

The following table shows IDSC's sales and surrenders of
certificates for the three years ended December 31, 1993:

1993 1992 1991
Single Payment* (Cash Basis) ($ in millions)

Surrenders 23.1 48.5 47.6

*Includes Cash Reserve, Flexible Savings, Single Payment, Future
Value, Investors, Stock Market and IDS Special Deposits
certificates.

In 1993 approximately 12% of single payment certificate sales
and 2% of installment certificate sales were of tax-qualified
certificates for use in IRAs, and 401(k) plans and other
qualified retirement plans.

The certificates offered by IDS Financial Services Inc. are
sold pursuant to a distribution agreement which is terminable on
60 days' notice and is subject to annual approval by IDSC's Board
of Directors, including a majority of the directors who are not
"interested persons" of IDS Financial Services Inc. or IDSC as
that term is defined in the 1940 Act. The agreement provides for
the payment of distribution fees to IDS Financial Services Inc.
for services provided thereunder. IDS Financial Services Inc. is
a wholly owned subsidiary of IDS. For the distribution of the
IDS Investors Certificate, IDS Financial Services Inc., in turn,
has a Selling Agent Agreement with AEBI. For distribution of IDS
Special Deposits, IDSC has a Marketing Agreement with AEB. Both
agreements are terminable upon 60 days' notice and similarly
subject to annual approval of the disinterested directors of
IDSC.


PAGE 7
IDSC receives advice, statistical data and recommendations
with respect to the acquisition and disposition of securities for
its portfolio from IDS, under an investment management agreement
which is subject to annual renewal by IDSC's Board of Directors,
including a majority of the directors who are not "interested
persons" of IDS or IDSC.

IDSC is required to maintain "qualified investments" meeting
the standards of Section 28(b) of the 1940 Act. The carrying value
of said investments must be at least equal to IDSC's net
liabilities on all outstanding face-amount certificates plus
$250,000. IDSC's qualified assets consist of cash and cash
equivalents, first mortgage loans on real estate, U.S. government
and government agency securities, municipal bonds, corporate bonds,
preferred stocks and other securities meeting specified standards.
IDSC is subject to annual examination and supervision by the State
of Minnesota, Department of Commerce (Banking Division).

Distribution fees on sale of certain certificates are deferred
and amortized over the estimated lives of the related certificates,
which is approximately 10 years. Upon surrender, unamortized
deferred distribution fees are charged against income. Thus, these
certificates must remain in effect for a period of time to permit
IDSC to recover such costs.

Restriction on the Registrant's present or future ability to
pay dividends:

Certain series of installment certificates outstanding provide
that cash dividends may be paid by IDSC only in calendar years for
which additional credits of at least 1/2 of 1% on such series of
certificates have been authorized by IDSC. This restriction has
been removed for 1994 and 1995 by action of IDSC on additional
credits in excess of this requirement.

Appropriated retained earnings resulting from the
predeclaration of additional credits to IDSC's certificate holders
are not available for the payment of dividends by IDSC. In
addition, IDSC will discontinue issuance of certificates subject to
the predeclaration of additional credits and will make no further
predeclaration as to outstanding certificates if at any time the
capital and unappropriated retained earnings of IDSC should be less
than 5% of net certificate reserves (certificate reserves less
certificate loans). At December 31, 1993, the capital and
unappropriated retained earnings amounted to 5.84% of net
certificate reserves.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

IDS Certificate Company's (IDSC) earnings are derived from the
after-tax yield on invested assets less investment expenses and
interest credited on certificate reserve liabilities. Significant
changes and trends occur largely due to interest rate changes and
the difference between rates of return on investments, rates of
interest credited to certificate holder accounts and the mix of
fully taxable and tax-advantaged investments in the IDSC portfolio.

In 1989 and 1990, total assets and certificate reserve liabilities
increased due to certificate sales exceeding certificate maturities
and surrenders. The increases in total assets in 1989 and 1990
also reflect capital contributions from its parent, IDS Financial
Corporation (IDS). (See Liquidity and Cash Flow Discussion)

Total assets and certificate reserve liabilities decreased in 1993,
1992 and 1991 due to certificate maturities and surrenders
exceeding certificate sales. The excess of certificate maturities
and surrenders over certificate sales in 1993, 1992 and 1991
resulted primarily from lower accrual rates declared by IDSC in
those years, reflecting lower interest rates available in the
marketplace.

1993 Compared to 1992

Gross investment income decreased 20 percent due to a lower balance
of invested assets and lower investment yields.

The 6.1 percent decrease in investment expenses resulted primarily
from lower distribution fees due to lower certificate sales, and
lower investment advisory and services fee due to a lower asset
base on which the fee is calculated. These decreases were
partially offset by higher amortization of interest rate caps. The
higher amortization reflects additional purchases and accelerated
amortization of certain interest rate caps in 1993.

Net provision for certificate reserves decreased 31 percent
reflecting lower accrual rates and a lower average balance of
certificate reserves.

The $7.1 million decrease in income tax benefit resulted primarily
from lower tax-advantaged income in 1993. The impact of the change
in Federal statutory income tax rate in 1993 was an increase in
income tax benefit of $.6 million of which $.4 million reflects the
increase in rate on the Dec. 31, 1992 balance of temporary
differences.

1992 Compared to 1991

Net investment income of $58.7 million in 1992 was 16 percent
higher than in 1991. The primary reason was an interest rate
environment in 1992, that resulted in slightly lower long-term
investment yields than in 1991 while short-term rates declined
significantly. As a result,

PAGE 11
IDSC's investment yields decreased, however, interest rates
credited on certificate reserve liabilities were significantly
lower due to the short-term repricing nature of certificate
products.

Gross investment income decreased 16 percent due to a lower balance
of invested assets and lower investment yields.

The 10 percent increase in investment expenses resulted primarily
from higher amortization of premiums paid for interest rate caps
and index options used as hedges against changes in rates credited
on certificate liabilities. Distribution fees were lower due
primarily to lower certificate sales. Investment advisory and
services fee was lower due a lower asset base on which the fee is
calculated.

Net provision for certificate reserves decreased 31 percent
reflecting lower accrual rates and a lower average balance of
certificate reserves.

The decrease in income tax benefit resulted primarily from higher
pretax income and lower tax-advantaged income in 1992.

LIQUIDITY AND CASH FLOW

IDSC's principal sources of cash are reserve payments from sales of
face-amount certificates and cash flows from investments. In turn,
IDSC's principal uses of cash are payments to certificate holders
for matured and surrendered certificates, purchase of investments
and payments of dividends to IDS.

Although certificate sales volume decreased 18 percent in 1993,
total sales remained strong reflecting clients' ongoing desire for
safety of principal. Sales of single payment certificates totaled
$.9 billion compared to $1.1 billion during 1992, $1.4 billion
during 1991 and $1.6 billion during both 1990 and 1989.

IDSC, as an issuer of face-amount certificates, is affected
whenever there is a significant change in interest rates. In view
of the uncertainty in the investment markets and due to the
short-term repricing nature of certificate reserve liabilities,
IDSC continues to invest in securities with relatively short
maturities and in securities that provide for more immediate,
periodic interest/principal payments, resulting in improved
liquidity. To accomplish this, IDSC continues to invest much of
its cash flow in mortgage-backed securities and in sinking-fund
preferred stock.

IDSC's investment program is designed to maintain an investment
portfolio that will produce the highest possible after-tax yield
within acceptable risk standards with additional emphasis on
liquidity. The program considers investment securities as
investments acquired with the intent and ability to hold for the
foreseeable future and is designed to meet anticipated certificate
holder obligations. IDSC normally holds its portfolio securities
until maturity or retirement, at which time the carrying values are
expected to be recovered.

PAGE 12
At Dec. 31, 1993, securities carried at cost decreased to $2.4
billion from $2.9 billion at Dec. 31, 1992. These securities,
which comprise 85 percent of IDSC's total invested assets, are
highly rated and well diversified. 96 percent are of investment
grade and, other than U.S. Government Agency mortgage-backed
securities, no one issuer represents more than two percent of these
securities. See note 3 to Financial Statements for additional
information on ratings and diversification.

Gross unrealized gains and gross unrealized losses on investment
securities carried at cost were $119 million and $6.5 million,
respectively, at Dec. 31, 1993.

In 1993, in reaction to the changing interest rate environment,
IDSC continued to restructure a portion of its investment security
portfolio by selling $349 million of investment securities. The
sales included $253 million of mortgage-backed securities purchased
at a premium. These securities were sold to decrease exposure to
prepayment activity on the underlying pool of mortgages that could
have had a negative impact on future yields on these securities.
Cash flows of $897 million from operating activities, scheduled
maturities, and redemptions of investments in 1993, were more than
adequate to fund the net cash outflow of $603 million related to
certificate obligations.

During 1992, IDSC charged earnings with $23.7 million of
write-downs in the value of certain interest-only, mortgage-backed
securities that resulted from high prepayments due to refinancing
and additional payment activity on the underlying pool of mortgages
due to declining interest rates. At Dec. 31, 1992, the carrying
value of these securities was $30.2 million. During 1993,
additional write-downs of $.6 million were recorded and all of
these securities with a carrying value of $27.4 million were sold
for $14.3 million.

During 1993, IDSC's reserve for possible losses on its below
investment grade securities was reduced by $12.2 million from $14.2
million at Dec. 31, 1992 to $2.0 million at Dec. 31, 1993. The
reduction reflects sales and exchanges of certain of these issues
in 1993. IDSC does not generally invest in below investment grade
securities and is limited by regulation as to the amount of such
securities it can hold. IDSC's holdings in these securities result
principally from the downgrading of the securities subsequent to
purchase by IDSC. Management believes that reserves for possible
losses on securities owned at Dec. 31, 1993, are adequate, however,
future economic factors could impact the ratings of securities
owned and additional reserves for losses may need to be recognized.

Impact of New Accounting Standards

In May of 1993, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
SFAS No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities," which IDSC will implement, effective Jan. 1,
1994. Under
PAGE 13
the new rules, debt securities that IDSC has both the positive
intent and ability to hold to maturity will be carried at amortized
cost. Debt securities that IDSC does not have the positive intent
and ability to hold to maturity and all marketable equity
securities will be classified as available-for-sale and carried at
fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on securities classified
as available-for-sale will be carried as a separate component of
Stockholder's Equity. The effect of the new rules will be to
increase Stockholder's Equity by approximately $4 million,
net of taxes, as of Jan. 1, 1994.

SFAS No. 114, "Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan,"
is expected to have no material impact on IDSC's results of
operations or financial condition.

Dividends

Cash dividends ranging from $17.9 million to $83.8 million were
declared during each of the years 1989 to 1993. In addition,
dividends-in-kind were declared consisting of an investment
security of $64.6 million in 1992 and a reduction in the notes
receivable from IDS of $25.5 million and $1.5 million in 1991 and
1989, respectively. As a result of projected adequate earnings in
1994 and capital in excess of regulatory requirements, IDSC
anticipates declaring regular cash dividends of approximately $50
million in 1994.

Capital Contributions

IDSC received capital contributions from IDS of $54.7 million in
Fund American Companies, Inc. preferred stock in 1990 and $18.5
million in cash and $85.9 million in Fund American Companies, Inc.
preferred stock in 1989. American Express Company made capital
contributions to several subsidiaries in 1989 and IDSC, through
IDS, was able to take advantage of this special opportunity. The
contributions benefited IDSC by providing support for the increased
certificate sales volumes in 1991, 1990 and 1989, allowing for
future growth and for payment of regular dividends.

Due to the decrease in IDSC's assets in 1992, IDSC felt its holding
in Fund American Companies, Inc. preferred stock was too large an
exposure to a single credit risk, resulting in IDSC's
dividend-in-kind of the issue to IDS. IDS subsequently contributed
capital to IDSC of $52.3 million. The contribution was necessary
in management of IDSC's regulatory capital requirements.

Ratios

The ratio of stockholder's equity to total assets less certificate
loans at Dec. 31, 1993, was 5.59 percent, compared to 5.34 percent
in 1992. IDSC intends to manage this ratio to five percent in
1994, which meets current regulatory requirements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS




The Board of Directors and Security Holders
IDS Certificate Company:



We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of IDS
Certificate Company as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the
related statements of operations, stockholder's equity, and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31,
1993. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules
listed in the index at item 8. These financial statements and
schedules are the responsibility of the management of IDS
Certificate Company. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these financial statements and schedules based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements and schedules are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements and schedules. Our procedures included confirmation of
investments owned as of December 31, 1993 and 1992 by
correspondence with custodians and brokers. 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 referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of IDS
Certificate Company at December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the results
of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related
financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all
material respects the information set forth therein.

IDS Certificate Company

Responsibility for Preparation of Financial Statements

The management of IDS Certificate Company is responsible for the
preparation of the financial statements and related notes included
in this Form 10-K. The statements have been prepared in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles appropriate in the
circumstances, and include amounts based on the best judgment of
management. Financial information included elsewhere in this Form
10-K is consistent with these financial statements.

In recognition of its responsibility for the integrity and
objectivity of data in the financial statements, management
maintains a system of internal accounting controls. This system
includes an organizational structure with clearly defined lines of
responsibility and delegation of authority. To ensure the
effective administration of internal control, employees are
carefully selected and trained, written policies and procedures are
developed and disseminated, and appropriate communication channels
are provided to foster an environment conducive to the effective
functioning of controls.

The system is supported by an internal auditing function that
reports its findings to management throughout the year. IDS
Certificate Company's independent auditors are engaged to express
an opinion on the year-end financial statements. They objectively
and independently review the performance of management in carrying
out its responsibility for reporting operating results and
financial condition. With the coordinated support of the internal
auditors, they review and test the system of internal accounting
controls and the data contained in the financial statements.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

IDS Certificate Company (IDSC) is a wholly owned subsidiary of IDS
Financial Corporation (IDS), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of
American Express Company.

IDSC is in the business of issuing face-amount investment
certificates.

Described below are certain accounting policies that are important
to an understanding of the accompanying financial statements.

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying financial statements are presented on a historical
cost basis without adjustment of the net assets attributable to the
1984 acquisition of IDS by American Express Company. They include
only the accounts of IDSC. IDSC uses the equity method of
accounting for its investment in its wholly owned unconsolidated
subsidiary, which is the method prescribed by the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) for issuers of face-amount certificates.
Certain amounts from prior years have been reclassified to conform
to the current year presentation.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The fair values of financial instruments disclosed in the notes to
financial statements are estimates based upon current market
conditions and perceived risks, and require varying degrees of
management judgment.

Preferred Stock Dividend Income

IDSC recognizes dividend income from cumulative redeemable
preferred stocks with fixed maturity amounts on an accrual basis
similar to that used for recognizing interest income on debt
securities.

Securities

Cash equivalents are carried at amortized cost, which approximates
fair value. IDSC has defined cash and cash equivalents as cash in
banks and highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months
or less at acquisition and are not interest rate sensitive.

IDSC's investment program considers investment securities as
long-term investments and is designed to meet contractual
investment certificate obligations. IDSC has the ability to hold
these securities to their maturities and has the intent to hold
them for the foreseeable future.

PAGE 30
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------

Marketable equity securities and other securities without fixed
maturity dates are carried at aggregate cost or market value,
whichever is lower. A valuation allowance is established for net
unrealized depreciation on marketable equity securities and is
charged against stockholder's equity. Bonds and notes, and
preferred stocks that either must be redeemed by the issuer or may
be redeemed by the issuer at the holder's request are carried at
amortized cost. The basis for determining realized gains and
losses on securities is the amortized cost of bonds and notes on a
"first-in, first-out" basis and the average cost of individual
issues of stocks. When there is a decline in value, that is other
than temporary, the securities are carried at estimated realizable
value.

First Mortgage Loans on Real Estate

Mortgage loans are carried at amortized cost, less reserves for
losses, which is the basis for determining any realized gains or
losses. When economic evaluations of the underlying real estate
indicate a loss on a loan is likely to occur, an allowance for such
loss is recorded. IDSC generally stops accruing interest on loans
for which interest is delinquent more than three months.

Certificates

Investment certificates may be purchased either with a lump-sum
payment or by installment payments. Certificate holders are
entitled to receive at maturity a definite sum of money. Payments
from certificate holders are credited to investment certificate
reserves. Investment certificate reserves accumulate at specified
percentage rates. Reserves also are maintained for advance
payments made by certificate holders, accrued interest thereon, and
for additional credits and accrued interest thereon. On
certificates allowing for the deduction of a surrender charge, the
cash surrender values may be less than accumulated investment
certificate reserves prior to maturity dates. Cash surrender
values on certificates allowing for no surrender charge are equal
to certificate reserves. The payment distribution, reserve
accumulation rates, cash surrender values, reserve values and other
matters are governed by the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("the
1940 Act").

Deferred Distribution Fee Expense

On certain series of certificates, distribution fees are deferred
and amortized over the estimated lives of the related certificates,
which is approximately 10 years. Upon surrender, unamortized
deferred distribution fees are charged against income.

Federal Income Taxes

IDSC's taxable income or loss is included in the consolidated
federal income tax return of American Express Company. IDSC
provides for income taxes on a separate return basis, except that,

PAGE 31
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------

under an agreement between IDS and American Express Company, tax
benefits are recognized for losses to the extent they can be used
in the consolidated return. It is the policy of IDS and its
subsidiaries that IDS will reimburse a subsidiary for any tax
benefits recorded.

2. Deposit of Assets and Maintenance of Qualified Assets

A. Under the provisions of its certificates and the 1940 Act, IDSC
was required to have qualified assets (as that term is defined in
Section 28(b) of the 1940 Act) in the amount of $2,767,057 and
$3,244,505 at Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively. IDSC had
qualified assets of $2,931,737 at Dec. 31, 1993 and $3,411,173 at
Dec. 31, 1992, including investment securities loaned to brokers of
$nil and $1,643 at Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

Qualified assets are valued in accordance with such provisions of
the Code of the District of Columbia as are applicable to life
insurance companies. Qualified assets for which no provision for
valuation is made in such Code are valued in accordance with rules,
regulations or orders prescribed by the SEC. These values are the
same as financial statement carrying values, except for securities
which are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or market in the
financial statements but are valued at cost for qualified asset and
deposit maintenance purposes.

B. Pursuant to provisions of the certificates, the 1940 Act, the
central depositary agreement and to requirements of various states,
qualified assets of IDSC were deposited as follows:

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------

The assets on deposit at Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992 consisted of
securities having a deposit value of $2,500,790 and $3,006,669,
respectively; mortgage loans of $276,711 and $228,107,
respectively; and other assets of $37,473 and $38,702,
respectively. Mortgage loans on deposit include an affiliated
mortgage loan.

IDS Bank & Trust is the central depositary for IDSC. See note 6C.

3. Investments

A. Fair values of investments in securities with fixed maturities
represent market prices and estimated fair values when quoted
prices are not available. Estimated fair values are determined by
IDSC using established procedures, involving review of market
indexes, price levels of current offerings and comparable issues,
price estimates and market data from independent brokers and
financial files. The procedures are reviewed annually. IDSC's
Vice President - Investments reports to the Board of Directors on
an annual basis regarding such pricing sources and procedures to
provide assurance that fair value is being achieved.

The amortized cost and fair value of investments in securities with
fixed maturities carried at cost are:

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Net unrealized gains on fixed maturities amounted to $112,712 and
$77,435 at Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively.

IDSC's reserve for possible losses on its below investment grade
securities was $2,049 at Dec. 31, 1993 compared to $14,210 at Dec.
31, 1992. The decrease reflects sales and exchanges of certain of
these issues in 1993.

The amortized cost and fair value of investments in securities with
fixed maturities by contractual maturity, are shown below. Cash
flows will differ from contractual maturities because issuers may
have the right to call or prepay obligations.

Proceeds from sales of investments in securities with fixed
maturities during 1993 and 1992 were $330,851 and $420,713,
respectively. Gross gains of $3,272 and $17,514 and gross losses
of $19,927 and $2,730 were realized on those sales during 1993 and
1992, respectively.
PAGE 34
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Investments in securities with fixed maturities comprised 85
percent and 88 percent of IDSC's total invested assets at Dec. 31,
1993 and 1992, respectively. Securities are rated by Moody's and
Standard & Poors (S&P), or by IDS internal analysts, using criteria
similar to Moody's and S&P, when a public rating does not exist. A
summary of investments in securities with fixed maturities by
rating of investment is as follows:

Rating 1993 1992
- ------------------------------------------
Aaa/AAA...................... 35% 35%
Aa/AA........................ 4 4
Aa/A......................... 1 1
A/A.......................... 22 21
A/BBB........................ 3 6
Baa/BBB...................... 31 28
Below investment grade....... 4 5
- ------------------------------------------
100% 100%
- ------------------------------------------
Of the securities rated Aaa/AAA, 87 percent at Dec. 31, 1993 and 89
percent at Dec. 31, 1992, are U.S. Government Agency
mortgage-backed securities that are not rated by a public rating
agency. Approximately 23 percent at Dec. 31, 1993 and 25 percent
at Dec, 31, 1992 of other securities with fixed maturities are
rated by IDS internal analysts. No investment in any one issuer at
Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992, is greater than two percent and one
percent, respectively, of IDSC's total investment in securities
with fixed maturities.

At Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992, approximately ten percent and seven
percent, respectively, of IDSC's invested assets were first
mortgage loans on real estate. A summary of first mortgage loans
by region and by type of real estate is as follows:

Region 1993 1992 Property Type 1993 1992

The carrying amounts and fair values of first mortgage loans on
real estate are as follows at Dec. 31. The fair values are
estimated using discounted cash flow analysis, using market
interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms
to borrowers of similar credit quality.

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Net first mortgage loans on real estate $233,796 $242,440
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

At Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992, commitments for fundings of first
mortgage loans, at market interest rates, aggregated $nil and $30.6
million, respectively. IDSC employs policies and procedures to
ensure the creditworthiness of the borrowers and that funds will be
available on the funding date. IDSC's first mortgage loan fundings
are restricted to 75 percent or less of the market value of the
real estate at the time of the loan funding. Management believes
there is no fair value for these commitments.

C. IDSC reserves freedom of action with respect to its acquisition
of restricted securities that offer advantageous and desirable
investment opportunities. In a private negotiation, IDSC may
purchase for its portfolio all or part of an issue of restricted
securities. Since IDSC would intend to purchase such securities
for investment and not for distribution, it would not be "acting as
a distributor" if such securities are resold by IDSC at a later
date.

The fair values of restricted securities are determined by the
Board of Directors using the procedures and factors described in
paragraph A of note 3.
PAGE 36
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------

In the event IDSC were to be deemed to be a distributor of the
restricted securities, it is possible that IDSC would be required
to bear the costs of registering those securities under the
Securities Act of 1933, although in most cases such costs would be
borne by the issuer of the restricted securities.

D. IDSC will implement, effective Jan. 1, 1994, Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities". Under the new rules,
debt securities that IDSC has both the positive intent and ability
to hold to maturity will be carried at amortized cost. Debt
securities that IDSC does not have the positive intent and ability
to hold to maturity and all marketable equity securities will be
classified as available-for-sale and carried at fair value.
Unrealized gains and losses on securities classified as available-
for-sale will be carried as a separate component of Stockholder's
Equity. The effect of the new rules will be to increase
Stockholder's Equity by approximately $4,304, net of taxes, as of
Jan. 1, 1994. The measurement of unrealized securities gains and
losses in Stockholder's Equity is affected by market conditions,
and therefore, subject to volatility. The new rules will not have a
material impact on IDSC's results of operations.

4. Certificate Reserves

Reserves maintained on outstanding certificates have been computed
in accordance with the provisions of the certificates and Section
28 of the 1940 Act. The average rates of accumulation on
certificate reserves at Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992 were:

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A. There is no minimum rate of accrual on these reserves.
Interest is declared periodically, quarterly or annually, in
accordance with the terms of the separate series of certificates.

B. On certain series of single payment certificates, additional
interest is predeclared for periods greater than one year. At Dec.
31, 1993, $2,726 of retained earnings had been appropriated for the
predeclared additional interest, which represents the difference
between certificate reserves on these series, calculated on a
statutory basis, and the reserves maintained per books.

C. Certain series of installment certificates guarantee accrual of
interest on advance payments at an average of 3.05 percent. IDSC
has increased the rate of accrual to 3.51 percent through April 30,
1995. An appropriation of retained earnings amounting to $25 has
been made, which represents the estimated additional accrual that
will result from the increase granted by IDSC.

D. IDS Stock Market Certificate enables the certificate holder to
participate in any relative rise in a major stock market index
without risking loss of principal. Generally the certificate has a
term of 12 months and may continue for up to 14 successive terms.
The reserve balance at Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992 was $402,801 and
$445,021, respectively.

E. The carrying amounts and fair values of certificate reserves
consisted of the following at Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992. Fair values
of certificate reserves with interest rate terms of one year or
less approximated the carrying values less any applicable surrender
charges. The fair values for other certificate reserves is a
discounted cash flow analysis using interest rates currently
offered for certificates with similar remaining terms, less any
applicable surrender charges.

5. Dividend Restriction

Certain series of installment certificates outstanding provide that
cash dividends may be paid by IDSC only in calendar years for which
additional credits of at least one-half of 1 percent on such series
of certificates have been authorized by IDSC. This restriction has
been removed for 1994 and 1995 by action of IDSC on additional
credits in excess of this requirement.

6. Fees Paid to IDS and Affiliated Companies ($ not in thousands)

A. The basis of computing fees paid or payable to IDS for
investment advisory and services is:

The investment advisory and services agreement with IDS provides
for a graduated scale of fees equal on an annual basis to 0.75
percent on the first $250 million of total book value of assets of
IDSC, 0.65 percent on the next $250 million, 0.55 percent on the
next $250 million, 0.50 percent on the next $250 million and 0.45
percent on the amount in excess of $1 billion. The fee is payable
monthly in an amount equal to one-twelfth of each of the
percentages set forth above. Excluded from assets for purposes of
this computation are first-mortgage loans, real estate and any
other asset on which IDSC pays a service fee.
PAGE 39
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
- -------------------------------------------------------------------

B. The basis of computing fees paid or payable to IDS Financial
Services Inc. (an affiliate) for distribution services is:

Fees payable to IDS Financial Services Inc. on sales of IDSC's
certificates are based upon terms of agreements giving IDS
Financial Services Inc. the exclusive right to distribute the
certificates covered under the agreements. The agreements provide
for payment of fees over a period of time. The aggregate fees
payable under the agreements per $1,000 face amount of installment
certificates and $1,000 purchase price of single payments, and a
summary of the periods over which the fees are payable, shown by
series are:

Future Value certificates.. 50.00 50.00 - -
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Fees on Cash Reserve and Flexible Savings (formerly Variable Term)
certificates are paid at a rate of 0.25 percent of the purchase
price at time of issuance and 0.25 percent of the reserves
maintained for these certificates at the beginning of the second
and subsequent quarters from issue date.

Fees on the Investors Certificate are paid at an annualized rate of
1 percent of the reserves maintained for the certificates. Fees
are paid at the end of each term on certificates with a one, two or
three-month term. Fees are paid each quarter from date of issuance
on certificates with a six, 12, 24 or 36-month term.

Fees on the Stock Market Certificate are paid at a rate of 1.25
percent of the purchase price on the first day of the certificate's
term and 1.25 percent of the reserves maintained for these
certificates at the beginning of each subsequent term.

(a) At the end of the sixth through the 10th year, an additional

of the reserves maintained for the certificates on an amount from
$250,000 to $499,000, 0.65 percent on an amount from $500,000 to
$999,000 and 0.50 percent on an amount $1,000,000 or more. Fees
are paid at the end of each term on certificates with a one, two or

7. Income Taxes

Income tax expense (benefit) as shown in the statement of
operations for the three years ended Dec. 31, consists of:


1993 1992 1991
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Federal:
Current............................. $(19,777) $ (1,571) $(19,137)
Deferred............................ 11,446 (13,501) (1,786)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

State............................... 349 7 (16)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
$ (7,982) $(15,065) $(20,939)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Income tax expense (benefit) differs from that computed by using
the U.S. statutory rate of 35 percent for 1993 and 34 percent for
1992 and 1991. The principal causes of the difference in each year
are shown below:


1993 1992 1991

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Federal tax benefit $ (8,331) $(15,072) $(20,923)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Deferred income taxes result from the net tax effects of temporary
differences. Temporary differences are differences between the tax
bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the
financial statements that will result in differences between income
for tax purposes and income for financial statement purposes in
future years. Principal components of IDSC's deferred tax assets
and liabilities as of Dec. 31, are as follows:


1993 1992
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Deferred tax assets:

8. Interest-Rate Caps

IDSC owns interest-rate caps with a notional amount of $1,170,000
and $900,000 at Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively. These caps
are quarterly reset caps and IDSC is to be reimbursed on the
notional amount to the extent the London Interbank Offering Rate
exceeds the reference rates specified in the cap agreements. These
reference rates range from 4 percent to 13 percent. The cost of
these caps is being amortized over the terms of the agreements
(three to seven years) on a straight line basis and is included in
other qualified assets.

The carrying amounts and fair values of interest rate caps
consisted of the following at Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992. Fair values
are determined using the procedures and factors described in
paragraph A of note 3.


1993 1992
--------- ---------

Carrying amount.................. $24,809 $26,551
Fair value....................... 6,916 13,480


9. Options

IDSC offers a series of certificates which pay interest based upon
the relative change in a major stock market index between the
beginning and end of the certificates' term. The certificate
holders have the option of participating in the full amount of
increase in the index during the term (subject to a specified
maximum) or a lesser percentage of the increase plus a guaranteed
minimum rate of interest. As a means of hedging its obligations
under the provisions of these certificates, IDSC purchases and
writes call options on the major market index. The options are
cash settlement options, that is, there is no underlying security
to deliver at the time the contract is closed out. There is the
risk that the counterparties to the purchased call option contracts
may be unable to fulfill their obligations. IDSC employs policies
and procedures to ensure the adequacy of the creditworthiness of
counterparties. Following is a summary of open option contracts at
Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992.

Purchased call options $185,387 417 436
Written call options 123,147 484 436
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

The option contracts are less than one year in term and are carried
at the aggregate of the amortized cost and underlying intrinsic
value of the contracts. These carrying amounts may be different
than fair value depending on market conditions and other factors.
The amortization of the cost of purchased and the proceeds of
written call options is included net in investment expenses and the
changes in the intrinsic value of the contracts are included net in
provision for certificate reserves, in the statement of operations.
The purchased options are included in other qualified assets and
the written options are included in other liabilities.

The carrying amounts and fair values of options consisted of the
following at Dec. 31, 1993 and 1992. Fair values are determined
using the procedures and factors described in paragraph A of note
3.

(c) In this schedule III, carrying amount of mortgage loans represents

(d) Interest in arrears for less than three months has been disregarded

interest. The amounts of mortgage loans being forclosed are
also included in amounts subject to delinquent interest.

(e) Information as to interest due and accrued at the end of the period
is shown by type of mortgage loan. Information as to interest
due and accrued for the various classes within the types of
