IDS LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1998
($ thousands)
(unaudited)
1. General
In the opinion of the management of IDS Life Insurance Company (the
Company), the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly its balance sheet as of June 30, 1998,
statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998
and 1997 and statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30,
1998 and 1997.
The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of American Express Financial
Corporation (AEFC), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of American
Express Company. The accompanying consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries,
IDS Life Insurance Company of New York, American Enterprise Life
Insurance Company, American Centurion Life Assurance Company, American
Partners Life Insurance Company and American Express Corporation. All
material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Purchased and written index options are carried at market value and
included in other investments. Gains or losses on index options are
deferred and recognized in management and other fees in the same period
as the hedged fee income.
2. Nature of business
The Company is engaged in the life insurance and annuity business. The
Company sells various forms of fixed and variable individual life
insurance, group life insurance, individual and group disability income
insurance, long-term care insurance, and single and installment premium
fixed and variable annuities.
3. Statements of cash flows
The Company considers investments with a maturity at the date of their
acquisition of three months or less to be cash equivalents. These
securities are carried principally at amortized cost which approximates
market value.
Cash paid for interest on borrowings totaled $6,318 and $2,285 for the
six months ended June 30, 1998, and 1997, respectively. Cash paid for
income taxes totaled $125,545 and $90,688 for the six months ended June
30, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

4. Commitments and contingencies
At June 30, 1998, the Company had commitments to purchase affordable
housing limited partnership investments of $27,925, which are included
in other liabilities. Commitments for purchases of investments in the
ordinary course of business at June 30, 1998 aggregated $146,867.
The maximum amount of risk retained by the Company on any one life is
$750 of life and waiver of premium benefits plus $50 of accidental
death benefits. The excesses are reinsured with other life insurance
companies on a yearly renewable term basis.
A number of lawsuits have been filed against life and health insurers
in jurisdictions in which the Company and AEFC do business involving
insurers' sales practices, alleged agent misconduct, failure to
properly supervise agents, and other matters. The Company and AEFC,
like other life and health insurers, from time to time are involved in
such litigation. On December 13, 1996, an action entitled Lesa
Benacquisto and Daniel Benacquisto vs. IDS Life Insurance Company and
American Express Financial Corporation was commenced in Minnesota state
court. The action is brought by individuals who replaced an existing
Company insurance policy with a new Company policy. The plaintiffs
purport to represent a class consisting of all persons who replaced
existing Company policies with new policies from and after January 1,
1985. The complaint puts at issue various alleged sales practices and
misrepresentations, alleged breaches of fiduciary duties and alleged
violations of consumer fraud statutes. Plaintiffs seek damages in an
unspecified amount and also seek to establish a claims resolution
facility for the determination of individual issues. The Company and
AEFC filed an answer to the Complaint on February 18, 1997. A similar
action entitled Mork and Melchert, et ux. vs. IDS Life Insurance
Company involving the replacement of existing IDS Life insurance
policies and annuity contracts was filed in the same court on March 21,
1997.
The Company is a defendant in various other lawsuits, none of which, in
the opinion of the Company counsel, will result in a material
liability.

5. Accounting Changes
Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income,".
SFAS No. 130 requires the display of comprehensive income and its
components. Comprehensive Income is defined as the aggregate change in
shareholders' equity excluding changes in ownership interests. For the
Company, it is the sum of unrealized gains or losses on
available-for-sale securities, and net income. The components of
comprehensive income, net of related tax, for the six month periods
ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 were as follows (in thousands):

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1997:
Consolidated net income increased 14 percent to $271 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1998, compared to $238 million in 1997. Earnings
growth resulted primarily from increases in management fees and policyholder and
contractholder charges, partially offset by the impact of somewhat lower spread
rates.
Premiums received totaled $2.2 billion for the six months ended June
30, 1998, compared to $2.7 billion a year ago. Decreased sales of fixed and
variable annuities were offset by increased sales of life insurance.
Net investment income was $997 million for the six months ended June
30, 1998, compared to $1 billion in 1997. The decrease reflects slightly lower
average total investments and slightly lower yields.
Policyholder and contractholder charges increased to $189 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998, compared with $167 million a year ago. This
increase is primarily due to higher life insurance in force.
Management and other fees increased to $203 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1998, compared with $157 million a year ago. This is primarily
due to an increase in separate account assets, which grew 26 percent over the
past 12 months to $27 billion at June 30, 1998, due to market appreciation and
sales. The Company provides investment management services for the mutual funds
which are used as investment options for variable annuities and variable life
insurance. The Company also receives a mortality and expense risk fee from the
separate accounts.
Total benefits and expenses were $1.1 billion for the six months ended
June 30, 1998, an increase of 1.9 percent from a year ago. The largest component
of expenses, interest credited on universal life-type insurance and investment
contracts, decreased to $672 million, compared with $692 million for the
corresponding period in 1997. This is due to lower aggregate amounts of fixed
annuities in force and lower crediting rates, reflecting market conditions.
Increases in amortization of DAC and other insurance and operating expenses are
primarily due to an increase in business in force.
<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The liquidity requirements of the Company are met by funds provided
from operations and investment activity. The primary components of the funds
provided are premiums, investment income, proceeds from sales of investments as
well as maturities and periodic repayments of investment principal.
The primary uses of funds are policy benefits, commissions and
operating expenses, policy loans, new investment purchases and dividends to
parent.
The Company has an available line of credit with its parent totaling
$100 million. This line of credit is used strictly as a short-term source of
funds. At June 30, 1998, outstanding borrowings under this agreement were $nil.
The Company also uses reverse repurchase agreements for short-term liquidity
needs. Outstanding reverse repurchase agreements totaled $347 million at June
30, 1998.
At June 30, 1998, approximately 10.2 percent of the Company's invested
assets were below-investment-grade bonds, compared to 11 percent at December 31,
1997. These investments may be subject to a higher degree of risk than
higher-rated issues because of the borrowers' generally greater sensitivity to
adverse economic conditions, such as recession or increasing interest rates, and
in certain instances the lack of an active secondary market. Expected returns on
below-investment-grade bonds reflect consideration of such factors. The Company
has identified those fixed maturities for which a decline in fair value is
determined to be other than temporary, and has written them down to fair value
with a charge to earnings.
For the six months ended June 30, 1998, sales of fixed maturities held
to maturity were due to significant deterioration in the issuers'
creditworthiness.
At June 30, 1998, the Company had an allowance for losses on mortgage
loans of $47 million.
The Company paid $120 million in dividends to its parent during the six
months ended June 30, 1998.
Accounting Change
In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
issued Statement of Position (SOP) 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. The SOP is effective for the
Company beginning January 1, 1999. The SOP will require the capitalization of
certain costs incurred subsequent to December 31, 1998, in connection with
developing or obtaining software for internal use. Adoption of the SOP will not
have a material impact on the Company's future earnings or financial position.
