                          Independent Auditors' Report

Pension and Profit Sharing Committee
Federated Department Stores, Inc.
Retirement Income and Thrift Incentive Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan 
benefits of Federated Department Stores, Inc. Retirement Income and Thrift 
Incentive Plan as of December 31, 1992 and 1991 and the related statements of 
changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended.  
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 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 are free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  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 net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of 
December 31, 1992 and 1991 and the changes in net assets available for benefits
for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting 
principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic 
financial statements taken as a whole.  The supplemental schedules of 
Investments and 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.  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

                           December 31, 1992 and 1991

(1)  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

      a)  Basis of Presentation

          The accompanying financial statements of Federated Department Stores,
          Inc. Retirement Income and Thrift Incentive Plan (the "Plan") have 
          been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.

      b)  Investments

          Investments are reported at market value or fair value as determined 
          by quoted market prices on an active market.  However, corporate 
          bonds are valued based on yields currently available on comparable 
          securities of issuers with similar credit ratings.  Purchases and 
          sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.  Realized 
          gains and losses on the sale of securities are reported on the  
          average cost method.

          Cash equivalents are considered highly liquid temporary cash 
          investments.

          Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.  Income from 
          other investments is recorded as earned on an accrual basis.

      c)  Insurance Contracts

          Insurance contracts are valued at contract value, which represents 
          contributions made under the contract, plus interest earned, less 
          benefits paid and expenses charged.

(2)  Description of the Plan

     The following brief description of the Plan is provided for general 
     information purposes only.  Participants should refer to the Plan document 
     for more complete information.

     General

     Allied Stores Corporation ("Allied") was merged into Federated Department 
     Stores, Inc. ("Federated") (collectively, the "Company") on February 4, 
     1992.  The Company sponsors retirement benefit and profit sharing- 
     investment programs for employees as previously established by Federated 
     (the "Plan") and Allied.  As of December 31, 1992, the Plan consists of  
     two parts: a retirement income plan and a thrift incentive plan.  The Plan
     was adopted in 1953 and is subject to the provisions of ERISA and U.S. 
     tax law.  

                                                                 (Continued)

                           December 31, 1992 and 1991

     Eligibility and Vesting

     Employees are generally eligible for participation in the Plan after one 
     year of service of at least 1,000 hours.  Participants are immediately  
     100% vested in their own and the Company's contributions.

     Retirement Income

     Retirement Income interests represent Company contributions to the 
     Retirement Income portion of the Plan prior to January 1, 1984 and the 
     earnings on the contributions.  A defined benefit pension plan (the  
     Pension Plan) was adopted as of January 1, 1984.  With the Pension Plan in
     place the Company continues to make contributions to the Thrift Incentive 
     portion of the Plan as described below and has the right to make 
     additional contributions to the Retirement Income portion of the Plan.

     Thrift Incentive

     The Thrift Incentive portion of the Plan provides for voluntary 
     contributions by participating employees and for Company contributions 
     matching a portion of the participants' contributions.

     Participants may elect to contribute to the Thrift Incentive portion of 
     the Plan an amount equal to 1% to 10% (subject to certain limitations) of
     the participant's eligible compensation.  Alternatively, a participant may
     elect to make these contributions (subject to certain limitations) on a 
     pre-tax basis pursuant to Section 401 (k) of the Internal Revenue Code.  
     Contributions up to 5% of eligible compensation are basic savings which 
     are eligible for Company contributions.  For 1984 and subsequent years,
     the Company's annual aggregate contribution is an amount equal to the 
     greater of 2% of the Company's pre-tax income from participating divisions
     or the amount necessary to match 20% of participants' basic savings.  The
     Company contributed 20.7% and 20% of participants' basic savings for years
     ended December 31, 1992 and 1991, respectively.  

     Individual participant accounts are maintained in the Plan.  Account 
     balances are affected by participant and Company contributions, earnings on
     investments and forfeitures.  Earnings on investments are allocated in the 
     proportion an individual account balance bears to the total of all 
     participant account balances on the immediately preceding valuation date.
     On the other hand, Company contributions and forfeitures are credited to 
     the individual accounts of active participants at the end of the year based
     on the ratio each participant's basic savings made and not withdrawn  
     during the year bears to the total of all participant basic savings made
     and not withdrawn in that year.  
 

                                                                    (Continued)

     Participants are permitted to make withdrawals of their after-tax 
     contributions to the Thrift Incentive portion of the Plan at any time.  
     Withdrawals of pre-tax contributions are subject to the hardship rules of 
     Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code.  At termination, participants  
     may elect to receive the balance of their account either in a lump sum or 
     an annuity contract.

(3)  Investments

     An account is maintained for each participant in the Plan which shows the 
     participant's separate interest in the Retirement Income and Thrift 
     Incentive portions of the Plan.

     At the end of each year, the Company's contributions to the Thrift 
     Incentive portion of the Plan are allocated to individual accounts for 
     individuals who did not make a withdrawal of basic (first 5%) savings 
     during the year, in the proportion that each participant's basic savings 
     made and not withdrawn during the year bears to the aggregate amounts of 
     basic savings made and not withdrawn by all participants during the year.  
     Additional voluntary contributions (any contributions in excess of 5% of 
     compensation) do not participate in the Company's allocation.  Allocations 
     are made at year end only to persons who are active participants on the 
     last day of the year.  At the end of each month, investment earnings are 
     allocated to individual accounts on amounts not withdrawn during the month 
     in the proportion that each such participant's interest at the beginning  
     of the month bears to the total of all such participants' interests at the
     beginning of such month.

     The Company has entered into a trust agreement with the Trustee with 
     respect to the operation of the Plan and the establishment and management 
     of the trust fund.  The Trustee invests all contributions to the Plan  
     among several investment funds.  The funds are:

       .  Diversified Fund - This fund is composed of employer contributions to 
          the Retirement Income portion of the Plan and certain amounts 
          transferred when certain plans were merged, together with the net 
          earnings thereon.  All amounts in this fund are invested in corporate 
          equity and fixed-income securities, government fixed-income  
          securities and cash equivalents.

       .  Stability Income Fund - This fund consists of balances in the 
          Retirement Income portion of the Plan of participants who were at 
          least 60 years of age prior to December 31, 1986, or who have  
          attained age 55 and who have completed at least ten years of service 
          and have elected to transfer all or part of their balance out of the 
          Diversified Fund.  This fund also contains accounts of retired 
          participants currently receiving benefits directly from the Trust.  
          All amounts in this fund are invested in certificates of deposit and 
          short-term, fixed-income corporate and government bonds.
                                                                     (Continued)

                           December 31, 1992 and 1991

       .  Thrift Incentive Fund - This fund includes Company and participants' 
          contributions to the Thrift Incentive portion of the Plan, together 
          with the net earnings thereon.  The amounts in this fund are invested 
          in three separate investment options as directed by the participants. 
          Fund A is invested in fixed-income investments.  Fund B is invested  
          in corporate and government fixed income securities, equity 
          securities and cash equivalents.  Fund C is invested in an equity
          index fund consisting of Standard and Poor's 500 stock investments. 
          Beginning with the Company contribution for 1989, Company 
          contributions, and net earnings thereon, were directed to Fund A.

(4)  Plan Termination

     Although the Company has not expressed any intent to terminate the Plan, 
     it may do so at any time.  In the event the Plan is terminated, the 
     Company would have no further obligation to make contributions, and all 
     sums credited to individual accounts (after expenses) would be distributed
     to participants.

(5)  Federal Income Taxes

     The Internal Revenue Service issued its latest determination letter on 
     July 31, 1987, which stated that the Plan and its underlying trust qualify 
     under the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and, 
     therefore, are exempt from federal income taxes.  In the opinion of the 
     Plan Administrator, the Plan and its underlying trust have operated under 
     the terms of the Plan and remain qualified under the applicable provisions 
     of the Internal Revenue Code. 

(6)  Administrative Expenses

     Investment managers' expenses and trustee fees are paid by the Plan.

(7)  Subsequent Event

     Effective July 1, 1993, the Allied Stores Corporation Profit Sharing - 
     Investment Plan ("Allied Plan") was merged into the Plan ("Allied  
     Merger").  The Allied Merger had no effect on the value of the Plan net 
     assets as of December 31, 1992.

     The approximate effect of the Allied Merger on the net assets of the Plan 
     just prior and subsequent to the merger on July 1, 1993 is summarized 
     below (all information is unaudited and presented in thousands):
