IDS Extra Income Fund
Prospectus
Oct. 28, 1994
The primary goal of IDS Extra Income Fund, Inc. is to provide high
current income. Capital growth is a secondary goal. The fund
invests primarily in long-term, high-yielding corporate debt
securities in the lower rating categories.
The securities in which the fund invests generally involve greater
volatility of price and risk of principal and income than do
securities in higher rating categories. Accordingly, an investment
in this fund may not be appropriate for all investors.
This prospectus contains facts that can help you decide if the fund
is the right investment for you. Read it before you invest and
keep it for future reference.
Additional facts about the fund are in a Statement of Additional
Information (SAI), filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The SAI, dated Oct. 28, 1994, is incorporated here by
reference. For a free copy contact IDS Shareholder Service.
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES
COMMISSION, NOR HAS THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY
STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF
THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL
OFFENSE.

The fund in brief
Goals
IDS Extra Income Fund seeks to provide shareholders with high
current income as its primary goal and, as its secondary goal,
capital growth. Because any investment involves risk, achieving
these goals cannot be guaranteed. Only shareholders can change the
goals.
Types of fund investments
The fund is a diversified mutual fund that invests primarily in
long-term, high-yielding debt securities below investment grade
issued by U.S. and foreign corporations. These securities are
commonly known as "junk bonds". They generally involve greater
volatility of price and risk of principal and income than higher
rated securities.
The fund also invests in government securities, investment-grade
bonds, convertible securities, common and preferred stocks,
derivative instruments and money market instruments.
Manager and distributor
The fund is managed by IDS Financial Corporation (IDS), a provider
of financial services since 1894. IDS currently manages more than
$38 billion in assets for the IDS MUTUAL FUND GROUP. Shares of the
fund are sold through IDS Financial Services Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of IDS.
Portfolio manager
Jack Utter joined IDS in 1962 and serves as senior portfolio
manager. He has managed this fund since 1985. He also is
portfolio manager of IDS Strategy, Income Fund.
Sales charge and fund expenses
Sales charge
When you buy shares, you pay a maximum sales charge of 5% of the
public offering price. This charge can be reduced, depending on
your total investments in IDS funds. See "Reductions of the sales
charge."
Shareholder transaction expenses
Maximum sales charge on purchases
(as a percent of offering price).................5%
Operating expenses
The fund pays certain expenses out of its assets. The expenses are
reflected in the fund's daily share price and dividends, and are
not charged directly to shareholder accounts. The following chart<PAGE>
PAGE 6
gives a projection of these expenses -- based on historical
expenses.
Annual fund operating expenses
(% of average daily net assets):
Management fee 0.61% Other expenses 0.14%
12b-1 fee 0.04% Total 0.79%
Example: Suppose for each year for the next 10 years, fund
expenses are as above and annual return is 5%. If you sold your
shares at the end of the following years, for each $1,000 invested,
you would pay total expenses of:
1 year 3 years 5 years 10 years
$58 $74 $92 $143
This example does not represent actual expenses, past or future.
Actual expenses may be higher or lower than those shown. Because
the fund pays annual distribution fees, shareholders who stay in
the fund for more than 20 years may indirectly pay an equivalent
of more than a 7.25% sales charge, the maximum permitted by the
National Association of Securities Dealers.
Fund expenses include fees paid to IDS for:
o managing its portfolio, providing investment research and
administrative services
o distribution (known as 12b-1 fees, after the federal rule that
authorizes them)
o transfer agent services, including handling shareholder
accounts and records.

Aggregate
Bond Index
These examples show total returns from hypothetical investments in
the fund. These returns are compared to those of a popular index
for the same periods.
For purposes of calculation, information about the fund assumes a
sales charge of 5%, makes no adjustments for taxes an investor may
have paid on the reinvested income and capital gains, and covers a
period of widely fluctuating securities prices. Returns shown
should not be considered a representation of the fund's future
performance.
The fund invests primarily in corporate bonds and other debt
securities that may be different from those in the index. The
index reflects reinvestment of all distributions and changes in
market prices, but excludes brokerage commissions or other fees.
Lehman Aggregate Bond Index is made up of a representative list of
government and corporate bonds as well as asset-backed and
mortgage-backed securities. The index is frequently used as a
general measure of bond market performance. However, the
securities used to create the index may not be representative of
the bonds held in the fund.
Yield
The fund's annualized yield for the 30-day period ended Aug. 31,
1994, was 8.36%.
The fund calculates this 30-day annualized yield by dividing:
o net investment income per share deemed earned during a 30-day
period by<PAGE>
PAGE 9
o the public offering price per share on the last day of the
period, and
o converting the result to a yearly equivalent figure.
The fund's yield varies from day to day, mainly because share
values and offering prices (which are calculated daily) vary in
response to changes in interest rates. Net investment income
normally changes much less in the short run. Thus, when interest
rates rise and share values fall, yield tends to rise. When
interest rates fall, yield tends to follow.
Past yields should not be considered an indicator of future yields.
Key terms
Net asset value (NAV)
Value of a single fund share. It is the total market value of all
of a fund's investments and other assets, less any liabilities,
divided by the number of shares outstanding.
The NAV is the price you receive when you sell your shares. It
usually changes from day to day, and is calculated at the close of
business, normally 3 p.m. Central time, each business day (any day
the New York Stock Exchange is open). NAV generally declines as
interest rates increase and rises as interest rates decline.
Public offering price
Price at which you buy shares. It is the NAV plus the sales
charge. NAVs and public offering prices of IDS funds are listed
each day in major newspapers and financial publications.
Investment income
Dividends and interest earned on securities held by the fund.
Capital gains or losses
Increase or decrease in value of the securities the fund holds.
Gains or losses are realized when securities that have increased or
decreased in value are sold. A fund also may have unrealized gains
or losses when securities increase or decrease in value but are not
sold.
Distributions
Payments to shareholders of two types: investment income
(dividends) and realized net long-term capital gains (capital gains
distributions).
Total return
Sum of all of your returns for a given period, assuming you
reinvest all distributions. Calculated by taking the total value
of shares you own at the end of the period (including shares
acquired by reinvestment), less the price of shares you purchased
at the beginning of the period.
<PAGE>
PAGE 10
Average annual total return
The annually compounded rate of return over a given time period
(usually two or more years) -- total return for the period
converted to an equivalent annual figure.
Yield
Net investment income earned per share for a specified time period,
divided by the offering price at the end of the period.
Investment policies and risks
The fund primarily invests in debt securities below investment
grade issued by U.S. and foreign corporations. Most of these will
be rated BBB, BB, or B by Standard & Poor's Corporation (S&P) or
the Moody's Investors Service, Inc. (Moody's) equivalent. Other
investments include investment grade bonds, convertible securities,
stocks, derivative instruments and money market instruments. The
various types of investments the portfolio manager uses to achieve
investment performance are described in more detail in the next
section and in the SAI.
Facts about investments and their risks
Investment-grade bonds: The price of an investment-grade bond
fluctuates as interest rates change or if its credit rating is
upgraded or downgraded.
Debt securities below investment grade: The price of these bonds
may react more to the ability of a company to pay interest and
principal when due than to changes in interest rates. They have
greater price fluctuations, are more likely to experience a
default, and sometimes are referred to as "junk bonds." Reduced
market liquidity for these bonds may occasionally make it more
difficult to value them. In valuing bonds the fund relies both on
independent rating agencies and the investment manager's credit
analysis. Securities that are subsequently downgraded in quality
may continue to be held and will be sold only when the fund's
investment manager believes it is advantageous to do so.

(See Appendix to this prospectus for further information regarding
ratings.)
Debt securities sold at a deep discount: Some bonds are sold at
deep discounts because they do not pay interest until maturity.
They include zero coupon bonds and PIK (pay-in-kind) bonds. To
comply with tax laws, the fund has to recognize a computed amount
of interest income and pay dividends to shareholders even though no
cash has been received. In some instances, the fund may have to
sell securities to have sufficient cash to pay the dividends.
Convertible securities: These securities generally are preferred
stocks or bonds that can be exchanged for other securities, usually
common stock, at prestated prices. When the trading price of the
common stock makes the exchange likely, the convertible securities
trade more like common stock.
Preferred stocks: If a company earns a profit, it generally must
pay its preferred stockholders a dividend at a pre-established
rate.
Common stocks: Stock prices are subject to market fluctuations.
Stocks of smaller companies may be subject to more abrupt or
erratic price movements than stocks of larger, established
companies or the stock market as a whole. The fund may invest up to
10% of its total assets in common stocks, preferred stock that do
not pay dividends and warrants to purchase common stocks.
Foreign investments: Securities of foreign companies and
governments may be traded in the United States, but often they are
traded only on foreign markets. Frequently, there is less
information about foreign companies and less government supervision
of foreign markets. Foreign investments are subject to political
and economic risks of the countries in which the investments are
made, including the possibility of seizure or nationalization of
companies, imposition of withholding taxes on income, establishment
of exchange controls or adoption of other restrictions that might
affect an investment adversely. If an investment is made in a
foreign market, the local currency must be purchased. This is done
by using a forward contract in which the price of the foreign
currency in U.S. dollars is established on the date the trade is
made, but delivery of the currency is not made until the securities
are received. As long as the fund holds foreign currencies or
securities valued in foreign currencies, the price of a fund share
will be affected by changes in the value of the currencies relative
to the U.S. dollar. Because of the limited trading volume in some
foreign markets, efforts to buy or sell a security may change the
price of the security, and it may be difficult to complete the
transaction. The fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in
foreign investments.
Derivative instruments: The portfolio manager may use derivative
instruments in addition to securities to achieve investment
performance. Derivative instruments include futures, options and<PAGE>
PAGE 12
forward contracts. Such instruments may be used to maintain cash
reserves while remaining fully invested, to offset anticipated
declines in values of investments, to facilitate trading, to reduce
transaction costs, or to pursue higher investment returns.
Derivative instruments are characterized by requiring little or no
initial payment and a daily change in price based on or derived
from a security, a currency, a group of securities or currencies,
or an index. A number of strategies or combination of instruments
can be used to achieve the desired investment performance
characteristics. A small change in the value of the underlying
security, currency or index will cause a sizable gain or loss in
the price of the derivative instrument. Derivative instruments
allow the portfolio manager to change the investment performance
characteristics very quickly and at lower costs. Risks include
losses of premiums, rapid changes in prices, defaults by other
parties, and inability to close such instruments. The fund will
use derivative instruments only to achieve the same investment
performance characteristics it could achieve by directly holding
those securities and currencies permitted under the investment
policies. The fund will designate cash or appropriate liquid
assets to cover its portfolio obligations. No more than 5% of the
fund's net assets can be used at any one time for good faith
deposits on futures and premiums for options on futures that do not
offset existing investment positions. For further information, see
the options and futures appendix in the SAI.
Securities and derivative instruments that are illiquid: Illiquid
means the security or derivative instrument cannot be sold quickly
in the normal course of business. Some investments cannot be
resold to the U.S. public because of their terms or government
regulations. All securities and derivative instruments, however,
can be sold in private sales, and many may be sold to other
institutions and qualified buyers or on foreign markets. The
portfolio manager will follow guidelines established by the board
of directors and consider relevant factors such as the nature of
the security and the number of likely buyers when determining
whether a security is illiquid. No more than 10% of the fund's net
assets will be held in securities and derivative instruments that
are illiquid.
Money market instruments: Short-term debt securities rated in the
top two grades are used to meet daily cash needs and at various
times to hold assets until better investment opportunities arise.
Generally less than 25% of the fund's assets are in these money
market instruments. However, for temporary defensive purposes
these investments could exceed that amount for a limited period of
time.
The investment policies described above may be changed by the board
of directors.
Lending portfolio securities: The fund may lend its securities to
earn income so long as borrowers provide collateral equal to the
market value of the loans. The risks are that borrowers will not<PAGE>
PAGE 13
provide collateral when required or return securities when due.
Unless shareholders approve otherwise, loans may not exceed 30% of
the fund's net assets.
Valuing assets
o Securities (except bonds) and assets with available market
values are valued on that basis.
o Securities maturing in 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost.
o Bonds and assets without readily available market values are
valued according to methods selected in good faith by the
board of directors.
How to buy, exchange or sell shares

</TABLE>
How to exchange shares
You can exchange your shares of the fund at no charge for shares of
any other publicly offered fund in the IDS MUTUAL FUND GROUP
available in your state. For complete information, including fees
and expenses, read the prospectus carefully before exchanging into
a new fund.
<PAGE>
PAGE 15
If your exchange request arrives at the Minneapolis headquarters
before the close of business, your shares will be redeemed at the
net asset value set for that day. The proceeds will be used to
purchase new fund shares the same day. Otherwise, your exchange
will take place the next business day at that day's net asset
value.
For tax purposes, an exchange represents a sale and purchase and
may result in a gain or loss. However, you cannot create a tax
loss (or reduce a taxable gain) by exchanging from the fund within
91 days of your purchase. For further explanation, see the SAI.
How to sell shares
You can sell (redeem) your shares at any time. IDS Shareholder
Service will mail payment within seven days after receiving your
request.
When you sell shares, the amount you receive may be more or less
than the amount you invested. Your shares will be redeemed at net
asset value at the close of business on the day your request is
accepted at the Minneapolis headquarters. If your request arrives
after the close of business, the price per share will be the net
asset value at the close of business on the next business day.
A redemption is a taxable transaction. If the fund's net asset
value when you sell shares is more or less than the cost of your
shares, you will have a gain or loss, which can affect your tax
liability. Redeeming shares held in an IRA or qualified retirement
account may subject you to certain federal taxes, penalties and
reporting requirements. Consult your tax adviser.

IDS Telephone Transaction o The fund and IDS will honor any telephone exchange or redemption request believed
Service: to be authentic and will use reasonable procedures to confirm that they are. This
800-437-3133 or includes asking identifying questions and tape recording calls. So long as
612-671-3800 reasonable procedures are followed, neither the fund nor IDS will be liable for any
loss resulting from fraudulent requests.
o Phone exchange and redemption privileges automatically apply to all accounts except
custodial, corporate or qualified retirement accounts unless you request these privileges
NOT apply by writing IDS Shareholder Service. Each registered owner must sign the request.
o IDS answers phone requests promptly, but you may experience delays when call volume is
high. If you are unable to get through, use mail procedure as an alternative.
o Phone privileges may be modified or discontinued at any time.
Minimum amount
Redemption: $100
Maximum amount
Redemption: $50,000
</TABLE>
Exchange policies:
o You may make up to three exchanges within any 30-day period,
with each limited to $300,000. These limits do not apply to
scheduled exchange programs and certain employee benefit plans or
other arrangements through which one shareholder represents the
interests of several. Exceptions may be allowed with pre-approval
of the fund.
o If your exchange creates a new account, it must satisfy the
minimum investment amount for new purchases.
o Once we receive your exchange request, you cannot cancel it.
o Shares of the new fund may not be used on the same day for
another exchange.
o If your shares are pledged as collateral, the exchange will be
delayed until written approval is obtained from the secured party.
o IDS and the fund reserve the right to reject any exchange, limit
the amount, or modify or discontinue the exchange privilege, to
prevent abuse or adverse effects on the fund and its shareholders.
For example, if exchanges are too numerous or too large, they may
disrupt the fund's investment strategies or increase its costs.
Redemption policies:
o A "change of mind" option allows you to change your mind after
requesting a redemption and to use all or part of the proceeds to
buy new shares in the same account at the net asset value, rather
than the offering price on the date of a new purchase. To do so,
send a written request within 30 days of the date your redemption
request was received. Include your account number and mention this
option. This privilege may be limited or withdrawn at any time,
and it may have tax consequences.
o A telephone redemption request will not be allowed within 30
days of a phoned-in address change.
<PAGE>
PAGE 17
Important: If you request a redemption of shares you recently
purchased by a check or money order that is not guaranteed, the
fund will wait for your check to clear. Please expect a minimum of
10 days from the date of purchase before IDS mails a check to you.
(A check may be mailed earlier if your bank provides evidence
satisfactory to the fund and IDS that your check has cleared.)
<TABLE><CAPTION>

</TABLE>
Reductions of the sales charge
You pay a 5% sales charge on the first $50,000 of your total
investment and less on investments after the first $50,000:
Total investment Sales charge as a
percent of:*
Public Net
offering amount
price invested
Up to $50,000 5.0% 5.26%
Next $50,000 4.5 4.71
Next $150,000 4.0 4.17
Next $250,000 3.0 3.09
Next $500,000 2.0 2.04
Next $2,000,000 1.0 1.01
More than $3,000,000 0.5 0.50
* To calculate the actual sales charge on an investment greater
than $50,000, amounts for each applicable increment must be
totaled. See the SAI.
<PAGE>
PAGE 18
Your sales charge may be reduced, depending on the totals of:
o the amount you are investing in this fund now,
o the amount of your existing investment in this fund, if any, and
o the amount you and your immediate family (spouse or unmarried
children under 21) are investing or have in other funds in the IDS
MUTUAL FUND GROUP that carry a sales charge.
Other policies that affect your sales charge:
o IDS Cash Management Fund and IDS Tax-Free Money Fund do not
carry sales charges. However, you may count investments in these
funds if you acquired shares in them by exchanging shares from IDS
funds that carry sales charges.
o IRA purchases or other employee benefit plan purchases made
through a payroll deduction plan or through a plan sponsored by an
employer, association of employers, employee organization or other
similar entity, may be added together to reduce sales charges for
all shares purchased through that plan.
For more details, see the SAI.
Waivers of the sales charge
Sales charges do not apply to:
o Current or retired trustees, directors, officers or employees of
the fund or IDS or its subsidiaries, their spouses and unmarried
children under 21.
o Current or retired IDS planners, their spouses and unmarried
children under 21.
o Qualified employee benefit plans* if the plan:
- has at least $1 million invested in funds of the IDS MUTUAL
FUND GROUP; or
- has 500 or more participants; or
- uses a daily transfer recordkeeping service offering
participants daily access to IDS funds.
(Participants in certain qualified plans for which the initial
sales charge is waived may be subject to a deferred sales charge of
up to 4% on certain redemptions. For more information, see the
SAI.)
o Trust companies or similar institutions, and charitable
organizations that meet the definition in Section 501(c)(3) of the
Internal Revenue Code.* These must have at least $1 million
invested in funds of the IDS MUTUAL FUND GROUP.
<PAGE>
PAGE 19
o Purchases made within 30 days after certain redemptions. A
waiver applies up to the amount redeemed from:
- an IDS product in a qualified plan subject to a deferred sales
charge; or
- a qualified plan where IDS Trust acts as trustee and/or
recordkeeper; or
- IDS Strategy Fund.
Send the fund a written request along with your payment, indicating
the amount of the redemption and the date on which it occurred.
o Purchases made with dividend or capital gain distributions from
another fund in the IDS MUTUAL FUND GROUP that has a sales charge.
*Eligibility must be determined in advance by IDS. To do so,
contact your financial planner.

Distributions and taxes
The fund distributes to shareholders investment income and net
capital gains. It does so to qualify as a regulated investment
company and to avoid paying corporate income and excise taxes.
Dividend and capital gains distributions will have tax consequences
you should know about.
Dividend and capital gain distributions
The fund distributes its net investment income (dividends and
interest earned on securities held by the fund, less operating
expenses) to shareholders of record monthly. Short-term capital
gains distributed are included in net investment income. Net
realized capital gains, if any, from selling securities are
distributed at the end of the calendar year. Before they're
distributed, net capital gains are included in the value of each
share. After they're distributed, the value of each share drops by
the per-share amount of the distribution. (If your distributions
are reinvested, the total value of your holdings will not change.)
Reinvestments
Dividends and capital gain distributions are automatically
reinvested in additional shares of the fund, unless:
o you request the fund in writing or by phone to pay
distributions to you in cash, or
o you direct the fund to invest your distributions in any
publicly available IDS fund for which you've previously
opened an account. You pay no sales charge on shares
purchased through reinvestment from this fund into any IDS
fund.
The reinvestment price is the net asset value at close of business
on the day the distribution is paid. (Your quarterly statement
from IDS will confirm the amount invested and the number of shares
purchased.)
If you choose cash distributions, you will receive only those
declared after your request has been processed.
If the U.S. Postal Service cannot deliver the checks for the cash
distributions, we will reinvest the checks into your account at the
then-current net asset value and make future distributions in the
form of additional shares.<PAGE>
PAGE 21
Taxes
Distributions are subject to federal income tax and also may be
subject to state and local taxes. Distributions are taxable in the
year the fund pays them regardless of whether you take them in cash
or reinvest them.
Each January, IDS sends you a statement showing the kinds and total
amount of all distributions you received during the previous year.
You must report all distributions on your tax returns, even if they
are reinvested in additional shares.
"Buying a dividend" creates a tax liability. This means buying
shares shortly before a net investment income or a capital gain
distribution. You pay the full pre-distribution price for the
shares, then receive a portion of your investment back as a
distribution, which is taxable.
Redemptions and exchanges subject you to a tax on any capital gain.
If you sell shares for more than their cost, the difference is a
capital gain. Your gain may be either short term (for shares held
for one year or less) or long term (for shares held for more than
one year).
Your Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) is important. As with
any financial account you open, you must list your current and
correct Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) -- either your Social
Security or Employer Identification number. The TIN must be
certified under penalties of perjury on your application when you
open an account at IDS.
If you don't provide the TIN to IDS, or the TIN you report is
incorrect, you could be subject to backup withholding of 31% of
taxable distributions and proceeds from certain sales and
exchanges. You also could be subject to further penalties, such
as:
o a $50 penalty for each failure to supply your correct TIN
o a civil penalty of $500 if you make a false statement that
results in no backup withholding
o criminal penalties for falsifying information
You also could be subject to backup withholding because you failed
to report interest or dividends on your tax return as required.

certain federal tax rules that apply to this fund. Tax matters are
highly individual and complex, and you should consult a qualified
tax adviser about your personal situation.
How the fund is organized
The fund is a diversified, open-end management investment company,
as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940. It was
incorporated on Aug. 17, 1983 in Minnesota. The fund headquarters
are at 901 S. Marquette Ave., Suite 2810, Minneapolis, MN 55402-
3268.
<PAGE>
PAGE 23
Shares
The fund is owned by its shareholders. All shares issued by the
fund are of the same class -- capital stock. Par value is 1 cent
per share. Both full and fractional shares can be issued.
The fund no longer issues stock certificates.
Voting rights
As a shareholder, you have voting rights over the fund's management
and fundamental policies. You are entitled to one vote for each
share you own.
Shareholder meetings
The fund does not hold annual shareholder meetings. However, the
directors may call meetings at their discretion, or on demand by
holders of 10% or more of the outstanding shares, to elect or
remove directors.
Directors and officers
Shareholders elect a board of directors who oversee the operations
of the fund and choose its officers. Its officers are responsible
for day-to-day business decisions based on policies set by the
board. The board has named an executive committee that has
authority to act on its behalf between meetings. The directors
also serve on the boards of all of the other funds in the IDS
MUTUAL FUND GROUP, except for Mr. Dudley, who is a director of all
publicly offered funds.

Investment manager and transfer agent
The fund pays IDS for managing its portfolio, providing
administrative services and serving as transfer agent (handling
shareholder accounts).
Under its Investment Management and Services Agreement, IDS
determines which securities will be purchased, held or sold
(subject to the direction and control of the fund's board of
directors). For these services the fund pays IDS a two-part fee.
<PAGE>
PAGE 25
The first part is based on the combined average daily net assets of
all funds in the IDS MUTUAL FUND GROUP, as follows:
Net assets of
IDS MUTUAL Annual
FUND GROUP* fee
First $5 billion 0.46%
Each additional Decreasing
$5 billion percentages
More than $50 billion 0.32%
*Includes all funds except the money market funds.
The second part is equal to 0.21% of the fund's average daily net
assets during the fiscal year.
For the fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 1994, the fund paid IDS a total
investment management fee of 0.61% of its average daily net assets.
Under the Agreement, the fund also pays taxes, brokerage
commissions and nonadvisory expenses.
In addition, under a separate Transfer Agency Agreement, IDS
maintains shareholder accounts and records. The fund pays IDS an
annual fee of $15.50 per shareholder account for this service.
Distributor
The fund sells shares through IDS Financial Services Inc., a wholly
owned subsidiary of IDS, under a Distribution Agreement. Financial
planners representing IDS Financial Services Inc. provide
information to investors about individual investment programs, the
fund and its operations, new account applications, exchange and
redemption requests. The cost of these services is paid partially
by the fund's sales charge.
Portions of sales charges may be paid to securities dealers who
have sold the fund's shares, or to banks and other financial
institutions. The proceeds paid to others range from 0.8% to 4% of
the fund's offering price depending on the monthly sales volume.
To help defray costs not covered by sales charges, including costs
for marketing, sales administration, training, overhead, direct
marketing programs, advertising and related functions, the fund
pays IDS a 12b-1 fee. This fee is paid under a Plan and
Supplemental Agreement of Distribution that follows the terms of
Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (and a Securities
and Exchange Commission order). Under this Agreement, the fund
pays IDS $6 per shareholder account per year. The total 12b-1 fee
paid by the fund for the fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 1994 was 0.04%
of its average daily net assets. This fee will not cover all of
the costs incurred by IDS.
<PAGE>
PAGE 26
Total management and distribution fees and expenses paid by the
fund in the fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 1994 were 0.79% of its
average daily net assets.
Total fees and expenses (excluding taxes and brokerage commissions)
cannot exceed the most restrictive applicable state expense
limitation.

Appendix
Description of corporate bond ratings
Bond ratings concern the quality of the issuing corporation. They
are not an opinion of the market value of the security. Such
ratings are opinions on whether the principal and interest will be
repaid when due. A security's rating may change which could affect
its price. Ratings by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. are Aaa, Aa,
A, Baa, Ba, B, Caa, Ca, C and D. Ratings by Standard & Poor's
Corporation are AAA, AA, A, BBB, BB, B, CCC, CC, C and D.
Aaa/AAA - Judged to be of the best quality and carry the smallest
degree of investment risk. Interest and principal are secure.
Aa/AA - Judged to be high-grade although margins of protection for
interest and principal may not be quite as good as Aaa or AAA rated
securities.
A - Considered upper-medium grade. Protection for interest and
principal is deemed adequate but may be susceptible to future
impairment.
Baa/BBB - Considered medium-grade obligations. Protection for
interest and principal is adequate over the short-term; however,
these obligations may have certain speculative characteristics.
Ba/BB - Considered to have speculative elements. The protection of
interest and principal payments may be very moderate.
B - Lack characteristics of the desirable investments. There may
be small assurance over any long period of time of the payment of
interest and principal.
Caa/CCC - Are of poor standing. Such issues may be in default or
there may be risk with respect to principal or interest.
Ca/CC - Represent obligations that are highly speculative. Such
issues are often in default or have other marked shortcomings.
C - Are obligations with a higher degree of speculation. These
securities have major risk exposures to default.
D - Are in payment default. The D rating is used when interest
payments or principal payments are not made on the due date.
<PAGE>
PAGE 28
Non-rated securities will be considered for investment when they
possess a risk comparable to that of rated securities consistent
with the fund's objectives and policies. When assessing the risk
involved in each non-rated security, the fund will consider the
financial condition of the issuer or the protection afforded by the
terms of the security.
Definitions of Zero-Coupon and Pay-In-Kind Securities
A zero-coupon security is a security that is sold at a deep
discount from its face value and makes no periodic interest
payments. The buyer of such a security receives a rate of return
by gradual appreciation of the security, which is redeemed at face
value on the maturity date.
A pay-in-kind security is a security in which the issuer has the
option to make interest payments in cash or in additional
securities. The securities issued as interest usually have the
same terms, including maturity date, as the pay-in-kind securities.

ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT POLICIES
These are investment policies in addition to those presented in the
prospectus. Unless holders of a majority of the outstanding shares
agree to make the change the fund will not:
'Invest more than 5% of its total assets, at market value, in
securities of any one company, government or political subdivision
thereof, except that the limitation will not apply to investments
in securities issued by the U.S. government, its agencies or
instrumentalities, and except that up to 25% of the fund's total
assets may be invested without regard to this 5% limitation.
'Purchase more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of an
issuer.
'Pledge or mortgage its assets beyond 15% of the cost of total
assets, buy securities on margin, sell short or purchase commodity
contracts except the fund may enter into interest rate futures
contracts. If the fund were ever to pledge or mortgage its assets,
valuation of its assets would continue to be based on market
values.
'Borrow money or property, except as a temporary measure for
extraordinary or emergency purposes, in an amount not exceeding
one-third of the market value of its total assets (including
borrowings) less liabilities (other than borrowings) immediately
after the borrowing. The fund has not borrowed in the past and has
no present intention to borrow.
'Make cash loans. The fund, however, does make investments in debt
securities where the sellers agree to repurchase the securities at
cost plus an agreed-upon interest rate within a specified period of
time.
'Buy or sell real estate or commodities except the fund may enter
into and hold interest rate futures contracts.
'Invest more than 25% of its total assets in securities of any one
industry, except that the fund will concentrate in the electric
utility industry when it deems electric utility securities to be
good relative values by investing from 25% to 40% of the value of
its total assets in such securities.
'Lend portfolio securities in excess of 30% of its net assets, at
market value. This policy may not be changed without shareholder
approval. The current policy of the fund's board of directors is
to make these loans, either long- or short-term, to broker-dealers.
In making such loans the fund gets the market price in cash, U.S.
government securities, letters of credit or such other collateral
as may be permitted by regulatory agencies and approved by the
board of directors. If the market price of the loaned securities
goes up, the fund will get additional collateral on a daily basis.
The risks are that the borrower may not provide additional
collateral when required or return the securities when due. During<PAGE>
PAGE 32
the existence of the loan, the fund receives cash payments
equivalent to all interest or other distributions paid on the
loaned securities. A loan will not be made unless the investment
manager believes the opportunity for additional income outweighs
the risks.
'Issue senior securities, except this restriction shall not be
deemed to prohibit the fund from borrowing from banks, using
options or futures contracts, lending its securities or entering
into repurchase agreements.
Unless changed by the board of directors, the fund will not:
'Invest in exploration or development programs, such as oil, gas or
mineral programs.
'Invest more than 5% of its total assets, taken at cost, in
securities of companies, including any predecessors, that have a
record of less than three years continuous operations.
'Invest in a company to get control or manage it.
'Act as an underwriter (sell securities for others). However,
under the securities laws, the fund may be deemed an underwriter
when it purchases securities directly from the issuer and later
resells them.
'Purchase securities of an issuer if the directors and officers of
the fund and of IDS Financial Corporation (IDS) hold more than a
certain percentage of the issuer's outstanding securities. If the
holdings of all directors and officers of the fund and of IDS who
own more than 0.5% of an issuer's securities are added together,
and if in total they own more than 5%, the fund will not purchase
securities of that issuer.
'Invest more than 5% of its net assets in warrants. Under one
state's law no more than 2% of the fund's net assets may be
invested in warrants not listed on an exchange.
'Invest more than 10% of the fund's net assets in securities and
derivative instruments that are illiquid. For purposes of this
policy illiquid securities include some privately placed
securities, public securities and Rule 144A securities that for one
reason or another may no longer have readily available markets,
loans and loan participations, repurchase agreements with
maturities greater than seven days, nonnegotiable fixed-time
deposits and over-the-counter options.
In determining the liquidity of Rule 144A securities, which are
unregistered securities offered to qualified institutional buyers,
and interest-only and principal-only fixed mortgage-backed
securities (IOs and POs) issued by the United States government or
its agencies and instrumentalities, the investment manager, under
guidelines established by the board of directors, will consider any
relevant factors including the frequency of trades, the number of<PAGE>
PAGE 33
dealers willing to purchase or sell the security and the nature of
marketplace trades.
In determining the liquidity of commercial paper issued in
transactions not involving a public offering under Section 4(2) of
the Securities Act of 1933, the investment manager, under
guidelines established by the board of directors, will evaluate
relevant factors such as the issuer and the size and nature of its
commercial paper programs, the willingness and ability of the
issuer or dealer to repurchase the paper, and the nature of the
clearance and settlement procedures for the paper.
Loans, loan participations and interests in securitized loan pools
are interests in amounts owed by a corporate, governmental or other
borrower to a lender or consortium of lenders (typically banks,
insurance companies, investment banks, government agencies or
international agencies). Loans involve a risk of loss in case of
default or insolvency of the borrower and may offer less legal
protection to the fund in the event of fraud or misrepresentation.
In addition, loan participations involve a risk of insolvency of
the lender or other financial intermediary.
The fund may maintain a portion of its assets in cash and cash-
equivalent investments. The cash-equivalent investments the fund
may use are short-term U.S. and Canadian government securities and
negotiable certificates of deposit, non-negotiable fixed-time
deposits, bankers' acceptances and letters of credit of banks or
savings and loan associations having capital, surplus and undivided
profits (as of the date of its most recently published annual
financial statements) in excess of $100 million (or the equivalent
in the instance of a foreign branch of a U.S. bank) at the date of
investment. Any cash-equivalent investments in foreign securities
will be subject to the limitations on foreign investments described
above. The fund also may purchase short-term corporate notes and
obligations rated in the top two classifications by Moody's or S&P
or the equivalent and may use repurchase agreements with broker-
dealers registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and
with commercial banks. A risk of a repurchase agreement is that if
the seller seeks the protection of the bankruptcy laws, the fund's
ability to liquidate the security involved could be impaired.

backed securities, see Appendix C.
PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Subject to policies set by the board of directors, IDS is
authorized to determine, consistent with the fund's investment
goals and policies, which securities will be purchased, held or
sold. In determining where the buy and sell orders are to be
placed, IDS has been directed to use its best efforts to obtain the<PAGE>
PAGE 34
best available price and most favorable execution except where
otherwise authorized by the board of directors.
Normally, the fund's securities are traded on a principal rather
than an agency basis. In other words, IDS will trade directly with
the issuer or with a dealer who buys or sells for its own account,
rather than acting on behalf of another client. IDS does not pay
the dealer commissions. Instead, the dealer's profit, if any, is
the difference, or spread, between the dealer's purchase and sale
price for the security.
Each investment decision made for the fund is made independently
from any decision made for another fund in the IDS MUTUAL FUND
GROUP or other account advised by IDS or any IDS subsidiary. When
the fund buys or sells the same security as another fund or
account, IDS carries out the purchase or sale in a way the fund
agrees in advance is fair. Although sharing in large transactions
may adversely affect the price or volume purchased or sold by the
fund, the fund hopes to gain an overall advantage in execution.
On occasion, it may be desirable to compensate a broker for
research services or for brokerage services by paying a commission
that might not otherwise be charged or a commission in excess of
the amount another broker might charge. The board of directors has
adopted a policy authorizing IDS to do so to the extent authorized
by law, if IDS determines, in good faith, that such commission is
reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage or research
services provided by a broker or dealer, viewed either in the light
of that transaction or IDS' overall responsibilities to the funds
in the IDS MUTUAL FUND GROUP.
Research provided by brokers supplements IDS' own research
activities. Such services include economic data on, and analysis
of, U.S. and foreign economies; information on specific industries;
information about specific companies, including earnings estimates;
purchase recommendations for stocks and bonds; portfolio strategy
services; political, economic, business and industry trend
assessments; historical statistical information; market data
services providing information on specific issues and prices; and
technical analysis of various aspects of the securities markets,
including technical charts. Research services may take the form of
written reports, computer software or personal contact by telephone
or at seminars or other meetings. IDS has obtained, and in the
future may obtain, computer hardware from brokers, including but
not limited to personal computers that will be used exclusively for
investment decision-making purposes, which include the research,
portfolio management and trading functions and other services to
the extent permitted under an interpretation by the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
When paying a commission that might not otherwise be charged or a
commission in excess of the amount another broker might charge, IDS
must follow procedures authorized by the board of directors. To
date, three procedures have been authorized. One procedure permits
IDS to direct an order to buy or sell a security traded on a<PAGE>
PAGE 35
national securities exchange to a specific broker for research
services it has provided. The second procedure permits IDS, in
order to obtain research, to direct an order on an agency basis to
buy or sell a security traded in the over-the-counter market to a
firm that does not make a market in that security. The commission
paid generally includes compensation for research services. The
third procedure permits IDS, in order to obtain research and
brokerage services, to cause the fund to pay a commission in excess
of the amount another broker might have charged. IDS has advised
the fund it is necessary to do business with a number of brokerage
firms on a continuing basis to obtain such services as the handling
of large orders, the willingness of a broker to risk its own money
by taking a position in a security, and the specialized handling of
a particular group of securities that only certain brokers may be
able to offer. As a result of this arrangement, some portfolio
transactions may not be effected at the lowest commission, but IDS
believes it may obtain better overall execution. IDS has assured
the fund that under all three procedures the amount of commission
paid will be reasonable and competitive in relation to the value of
the brokerage services performed or research provided.
All other transactions shall be placed on the basis of obtaining
the best available price and the most favorable execution. In so
doing, if in the professional opinion of the person responsible for
selecting the broker or dealer, several firms can execute the
transaction on the same basis, consideration will be given by such
person to those firms offering research services. Such services
may be used by IDS in providing advice to all the funds in the IDS
MUTUAL FUND GROUP and other accounts advised by IDS, even though it
is not possible to relate the benefits to any particular fund or
account.
Each investment decision made for the fund is made independently
from any decision made for another fund in the IDS MUTUAL FUND
GROUP or other account advised by IDS or any of its subsidiaries.
When the fund buys or sells the same security as another fund or
account, IDS carries out the purchase or sale in a way the fund
agrees in advance is fair. Although sharing in large transactions
may adversely affect the price or volume purchased or sold by the
fund, the fund hopes to gain an overall advantage in execution.
IDS has assured the fund it will continue to seek ways to reduce
brokerage costs.
On a periodic basis, IDS makes a comprehensive review of the
broker-dealers and the overall reasonableness of their commissions.
The review evaluates execution, operational efficiency and research
services.
The fund paid total brokerage commissions of $145,758 for the
fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 1994, $101,951 for fiscal year 1993, and
$64,075 for fiscal year 1992. Substantially all firms through whom
transactions were executed provide research services.
No transactions were directed to brokers because of research
services they provided to the fund.<PAGE>
PAGE 36
The fund acquired no securities of its regular brokers or dealers
or of the parents of those brokers or dealers that derived more
than 15% of gross revenue from securities-related activities during
the fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 1994.
The portfolio turnover rate was 74% in the fiscal year ended Aug.
31, 1994, and 70% in fiscal year 1993.
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS PAID TO BROKERS AFFILIATED WITH IDS
Affiliates of American Express Company (American Express) (of which
IDS is a wholly owned subsidiary) may engage in brokerage and other
securities transactions on behalf of the fund according to
procedures adopted by the fund's board of directors and to the
extent consistent with applicable provisions of the federal
securities laws. IDS will use an American Express affiliate only
if (i) IDS determines that the fund will receive prices and
executions at least as favorable as those offered by qualified
independent brokers performing similar brokerage and other services
for the fund and (ii) the affiliate charges the fund commission
rates consistent with those the affiliate charges comparable
unaffiliated customers in similar transactions and if such use is
consistent with terms of the Investment Management and Services
Agreement.
Information about brokerage commissions paid by the fund for the
last three fiscal years to brokers affiliated with IDS is contained

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION
The fund may quote various performance figures to illustrate past
performance. Average annual total return and current yield
quotations used by the fund are based on standardized methods of
computing performance as required by the SEC. An explanation of
these and any other methods used by the fund to compute performance
follows below.
<PAGE>
PAGE 37
Average annual total return
The fund may calculate average annual total return for certain
periods by finding the average annual compounded rates of return
over the period that would equate the initial amount invested to
the ending redeemable value, according to the following formula:
P(1+T)n = ERV
where: P = a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000
T = average annual total return
n = number of years
ERV = ending redeemable value of a hypothetical $1,000
payment, made at the beginning of a period, at the
end of the period (or fractional portion thereof)
Aggregate total return
The fund may calculate aggregate total return for certain periods
representing the cumulative change in the value of an investment in
the fund over a specified period of time according to the following
formula:
ERV - P
P
where: P = a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000
ERV = ending redeemable value of a hypothetical $1,000
payment, made at the beginning of a period, at the
end of the period (or fractional portion thereof)
Annualized yield
The fund may calculate an annualized yield by dividing the net
investment income per share deemed earned during a period by the
net asset value per share on the last day of the period and
annualizing the results.
Yield is calculated according to the following formula:
Yield = 2[(a-b + 1)6 - 1]
cd
where: a = dividends and interest earned during the period
b = expenses accrued for the period (net of
reimbursements)
c = the average daily number of shares outstanding
during the period that were entitled to receive
dividends
d = the maximum offering price per share on the last
day of the period
The fund's annualized yield was 8.36% for the 30-day period ended
Aug. 31, 1994.
<PAGE>
PAGE 38
The fund's yield, calculated as described above according to the
formula prescribed by the SEC, is a hypothetical return based on
market value yield to maturity for the fund's securities. It is
not necessarily indicative of the amount which was or may be paid
to the fund's shareholders. Actual amounts paid to fund
shareholders are reflected in the distribution yield.
Distribution yield
Distribution yield is calculated according to the following
formula:
D divided by POP F equals DY
31 31
where: D = sum of dividends for 31-day period
POP = sum of public offering price for 31-day period
F = annualizing factor
DY = distribution yield
The fund's distribution yield was 9.61% for the 31-day period ended
Aug. 31, 1994.
In its sales material and other communications, the fund may quote,
compare or refer to rankings, yields or returns as published by
independent statistical services or publishers and publications
such as The Bank Rate Monitor National Index, Barron's, Business
Week, Donoghue's Money Market Fund Report, Financial Services Week,

VALUING FUND SHARES
The value of an individual share is determined by using the net
asset value before shareholder transactions for the day. On Sept.
1, 1994, the first business day following the end of the fiscal
year, the computation looked like this:
<TABLE><CAPTION>
Net assets before Shares outstanding Net asset value
shareholder transactions at end of previous day of one share
<S> <C> <C>
$1,624,323,828 divided by 404,491,987 equals $4.02
</TABLE>
In determining net assets before shareholder transactions, the
fund's portfolio securities are valued as follows as of the close
of business of the New York Stock Exchange:
'Securities, except bonds other than convertibles, traded on a
securities exchange for which a last-quoted sales price is readily
available are valued at the last-quoted sales price on the exchange
where such security is primarily traded.<PAGE>
PAGE 39
'Securities traded on a securities exchange for which a last-quoted
sales price is not readily available are valued at the mean of the
closing bid and asked prices, looking first to the bid and asked
prices on the exchange where the security is primarily traded and,
if none exist, to the over-the-counter market.
'Securities included in the NASDAQ National Market System are
valued at the last-quoted sales price in this market.
'Securities included in the NASDAQ National Market System for which
a last-quoted sales price is not readily available, and other
securities traded over-the-counter but not included in the NASDAQ
National Market System are valued at the mean of the closing bid
and asked prices.
'Futures and options traded on major exchanges are valued at the
last-quoted sales price on their primary exchange.
'Foreign securities traded outside the United States are generally
valued as of the time their trading is complete, which is usually
different from the close of the New York Stock Exchange. Foreign
securities quoted in foreign currencies are translated into U.S.
dollars at the current rate of exchange. Occasionally, events
affecting the value of such securities may occur between such times
and the close of the New York Stock Exchange that will not be
reflected in the computation of the fund's net asset value. If
events materially affecting the value of such securities occur
during such period, these securities will be valued at their fair
value according to procedures decided upon in good faith by the
fund's board of directors.
'Short-term securities maturing more than 60 days from the
valuation date are valued at the readily available market price or
approximate market value based on current interest rates. Short-
term securities maturing in 60 days or less that originally had
maturities of more than 60 days at acquisition date are valued at
amortized cost using the market value on the 61st day before
maturity. Short-term securities maturing in 60 days or less at
acquisition date are valued at amortized cost. Amortized cost is
an approximation of market value determined by systematically
increasing the carrying value of a security if acquired at a
discount, or reducing the carrying value if acquired at a premium,
so that the carrying value is equal to maturity value on the
maturity date.
'Securities without a readily available market price, bonds other
than convertibles and other assets are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by the board of directors. The board of
directors is responsible for selecting methods it believes provide
fair value. When possible, bonds are valued by a pricing service
independent from the fund. If a valuation of a bond is not
available from a pricing service, the bond will be valued by a
dealer knowledgeable about the bond if such a dealer is available.

The New York Stock Exchange, IDS and the fund will be closed on the
following holidays: New Year's Day, Presidents' Day, Good Friday,
Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and
Christmas Day.
INVESTING IN THE FUND
Sales Charge
Shares of the fund are sold at the public offering price determined
at the close of business on the day an application is accepted.
The public offering price is the net asset value of one share plus
a sales charge. The public offering price for an investment of
less than $50,000, made Sept. 1, 1994, was determined by dividing
the net asset value of one share, $4.02, by 0.95 (1.00-0.05 for a
maximum 5% sales charge) for a public offering price of $4.23. The
sales charge is paid to IDS Financial Services Inc. by the person
buying the shares.
Calculation of the Sales Charge
Sales charges are determined as follows:
<TABLE><CAPTION>
Within each increment,
sales charge as a
percentage of:
Public Net
Amount of Investment Offering Price Amount Invested
<S> <C> <C>
First $ 50,000 5.0% 5.26%
Next 50,000 4.5 4.71
Next 150,000 4.0 4.17
Next 250,000 3.0 3.09
Next 500,000 2.0 2.04
Next 2,000,000 1.0 1.01
More than 3,000,000 0.5 0.50
</TABLE>
Sales charges on an investment greater than $50,000 are calculated
for each increment separately and then totaled. The resulting
total sales charge, expressed as a percentage of the public
offering price and of the net amount invested, will vary depending
on the proportion of the investment at different sales charge
levels.
For example, compare an investment of $60,000 with an investment of
$85,000. The $60,000 investment is composed of $50,000 that incurs
a sales charge of $2,500 (5.0% x $50,000) and $10,000 that incurs a
sales charge of $450 (4.5% x $10,000). The total sales charge of
$2,950 is 4.92% of the public offering price and 5.17% of the net
amount invested.
In the case of the $85,000 investment, the first $50,000 also
incurs a sales charge of $2,500 (5.0% x $50,000) and $35,000 incurs
a sales charge of $1,575 (4.5% x $35,000). The total sales charge<PAGE>
PAGE 41
of $4,075 is 4.79% of the public offering price and 5.04% of the
net amount invested.
The following table shows the range of sales charges as a
percentage of the public offering price and of the net amount
invested on total investments at each applicable level.

</TABLE>
The initial sales charge is waived for certain qualified plans that
meet the requirements described in the prospectus. Participants in
these qualified plans may be subject to a deferred sales charge on
certain redemptions. The deferred sales charge on certain
redemptions will be waived if the redemption is a result of a
participant's death, disability, retirement, attaining age 59 1/2,
loans or hardship withdrawals. The deferred sales charge varies
depending on the number of participants in the qualified plan and
total plan assets as follows:
Deferred Sales Charge
Number of Participants
Total Plan Assets 1-99 100 or more
Less than $1 million 4% 0%
$1 million or more 0% 0%
_________________________________________________________
Reducing the Sales Charge
Sales charges are based on the total amount of your investments in
the fund. The amount of all prior investments plus any new
purchase is referred to as your "total amount invested." For
example, suppose you have made an investment of $20,000 and later
decide to invest $40,000 more. Your total amount invested would be
$60,000. As a result, $10,000 of your $40,000 investment qualifies
for the lower 4.5% sales charge that applies to investments of more
than $50,000 to $100,000.
<PAGE>
PAGE 42
The total amount invested includes any shares held in the fund in
the name of a member of your immediate family (spouse and unmarried
children under 21). For instance, if your spouse already has
invested $20,000 and you want to invest $40,000, your total amount
invested will be $60,000 and therefore you will pay the lower
charge of 4.5% on $10,000 of the $40,000.
Until a spouse remarries, the sales charge is waived for spouses
and unmarried children under 21 of deceased trustees, directors,
officers or employees of the fund or IDS or its subsidiaries and
deceased planners.
The total amount invested also includes any investment you or your
immediate family already have in the other publicly offered funds
in the IDS MUTUAL FUND GROUP where the investment is subject to a
sales charge. For example, suppose you already have an investment
of $25,000 in IDS Growth Fund and $5,000 in this fund. If you
invest $40,000 more in this fund, your total amount invested in the
funds will be $70,000 and therefore $20,000 of your $40,000
investment will incur a 4.5% sales charge.
Finally, Individual Retirement Account (IRA) purchases, or other
employee benefit plan purchases made through a payroll deduction
plan or through a plan sponsored by an employer, association of
employers, employee organization or other similar entity, may be
added together to reduce sales charges for shares purchased through
that plan.
Systematic Investment Programs
After you make your initial investment of $2,000 or more, you can
arrange to make additional payments of $100 or more on a regular
basis. These minimums do not apply to all systematic investment
programs. You decide how often to make payments - monthly,
quarterly or semiannually. You are not obligated to make any
payments. You can omit payments or discontinue the investment
program altogether. The fund also can change the program or end it
at any time. If there is no obligation, why do it? Putting money
aside is an important part of financial planning. With a
systematic investment program, you have a goal to work for.
How does this work? When you send in your payment, your money is
invested at the public offering price. Your regular investment
amount will purchase more shares when the net asset value per share
decreases, and fewer shares when the net asset value per share
increases. Each purchase is a separate transaction. After each
purchase your new shares will be added to your account. Shares
bought through these programs are exactly the same as any other
fund shares. They can be bought and sold at any time. A
systematic investment program is not an option or an absolute right
to buy shares.
The systematic investment program itself cannot ensure a profit,
nor can it protect against a loss in a declining market. If you
decide to discontinue the program and redeem your shares when their<PAGE>
PAGE 43
net asset value is less than what you paid for them, you will incur
a loss.
For a discussion on dollar-cost averaging, see Appendix D.
Automatic Directed Dividends
Dividends, including capital gain distributions, paid by another
fund in the IDS MUTUAL FUND GROUP subject to a sales charge, may be
used to automatically purchase shares of this fund without paying a
sales charge. Dividends may be directed to existing accounts only.
Dividends declared by a fund are exchanged to this fund the
following day. Dividends can be exchanged into one fund but cannot
be split to make purchases in two or more funds. Automatic
directed dividends are available between accounts of any ownership
except:
'Between a non-custodial account and an IRA, or 401(k) plan account
or other qualified retirement account of which IDS Trust Company
acts as custodian;
'Between two IDS Trust Company custodial accounts with different
owners (for example, you may not exchange dividends from your IRA
to the IRA of your spouse);
'Between different kinds of custodial accounts with the same
ownership (for example, you may not exchange dividends from your
IRA to your 401(k) plan account, although you may exchange
dividends from one IRA to another IRA).
Moreover, dividends may be directed from accounts established under
the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act (UGMA) or Uniform Transfers to
Minors Act (UTMA) only into other UGMA or UTMA accounts with
identical ownership.
Each fund has a different investment goal described in its
prospectus along with other information, including fees and expense
ratios. Before exchanging dividends into another fund, you should
read its prospectus. You will receive a confirmation that the
automatic directed dividend service has been set up for your
account.
REDEEMING SHARES
You have a right to redeem your shares at any time. For an
explanation of redemption procedures, please see the prospectus.
During an emergency, the board of directors can suspend the
computation of net asset value, stop accepting payments for
purchase of shares or suspend the duty of the fund to redeem shares
for more than seven days. Such emergency situations would occur
if:
<PAGE>
PAGE 44
'The New York Stock Exchange closes for reasons other than the
usual weekend and holiday closings or trading on the Exchange is
restricted, or
'Disposal of the fund's securities is not reasonably practicable or
it is not reasonably practicable for the fund to determine the fair
value of its net assets, or
'The SEC, under the provisions of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended, declares a period of emergency to exist.
Should the fund stop selling shares, the directors may make a
deduction from the value of the assets held by the fund to cover
the cost of future liquidations of the assets so as to distribute
fairly these costs among all shareholders.
PAY-OUT PLANS
You can use any of several pay-out plans to redeem your investment
in regular installments at no extra cost. While the plans differ
on how the pay-out is figured, they all are based on the redemption
of your investment. Net investment income dividends and any
capital gain distributions will automatically be reinvested, unless
you elect to receive them in cash. If you are redeeming a tax-
qualified plan account for which IDS Trust Company acts as
custodian, you can elect to receive your dividends and other
distributions in cash when permitted by law. If you redeem an IRA
or a qualified retirement account, certain restrictions, federal
tax penalties and special federal income tax reporting requirements
may apply. You should consult your tax adviser about this complex
area of the tax law.
IDS normally will not accept applications for a systematic
investment in any fund in the IDS MUTUAL FUND GROUP subject to a
sales charge while a pay-out plan for any of those funds is in
effect. Occasional investments, however, may be accepted.
To start any of these plans, please submit an authorization form
supplied by IDS Shareholder Service. For a copy, write or call IDS
Shareholder Service, P.O. Box 534, Minneapolis, MN 55440-0534, 612-
671-3733. Your authorization must be received in the Minneapolis
headquarters at least five days before the date you want your
payments to begin. The initial payment must be at least $50.
Payments will be made on a monthly, bimonthly, quarterly,
semiannual or annual basis. Your choice is effective until you
change or cancel it.
The following pay-out plans are designed to take care of the needs
of most shareholders in a way IDS can handle efficiently and at a
reasonable cost. If you need a more irregular schedule of
payments, it may be necessary for you to make a series of
individual redemptions, in which case you will have to send in a
separate redemption request for each pay-out. The fund reserves
the right to change or stop any pay-out plan and to stop making
such plans available.<PAGE>
PAGE 45
Plan #1: Pay-out for a fixed period of time
If you choose this plan, a varying number of shares will be
redeemed at net asset value at regular intervals during the time
period you choose. This plan is designed to end in complete re-
demption of all shares in your account by the end of the fixed
period.
Plan #2: Redemption of a fixed number of shares
If you choose this plan, a fixed number of shares will be redeemed
at net asset value for each payment and that amount will be sent to
you. The length of time these payments continue is based on the
number of shares in your account.
Plan #3: Redemption of a fixed dollar amount
If you decide on a fixed dollar amount, whatever number of shares
is necessary to make the payment will be redeemed in regular
installments until your account is closed.
Plan #4: Redemption of a percentage of net asset value
Payments are made based on a fixed percentage of the net asset
value of the shares in the account computed on the day of each
payment. Percentages range from 0.25% to 0.75%. For example, if
you are on this plan and arrange to take 0.5% each month, you will
get $50 if the value of your account is $10,000 on the payment
date.
EXCHANGES
If you buy shares in the fund and then exchange into another fund,
it is considered a sale and subsequent purchase of shares. Under
the tax laws, if this exchange is done within 91 days, any sales
charge waived on a subsequent purchase of shares applies to the new
shares acquired in the exchange. Therefore, you cannot create a
tax loss or reduce a tax gain attributable to the sales charge when
exchanging shares within 91 days.
Retirement Accounts
If you have a nonqualified investment in the fund and you wish to
move part or all of those shares to an IRA or qualified retirement
account in this fund, you can do so without paying a sales charge.
However, this type of exchange is considered a sale of shares and
may result in a gain or loss for tax purposes. In addition, this
type of exchange may result in an excess contribution under IRA or
qualified plan regulations if the amount exchanged plus the amount
of the initial sales charge applied to the amount exchanged exceeds
annual contribution limitations. For example: If you were to
exchange $2,000 in shares from a nonqualified account to an IRA
without considering the 5% ($100) initial sales charge applicable
to that $2,000, you may be deemed to have exceeded current IRA<PAGE>
PAGE 46
annual contribution limitations. You should consult your tax
adviser for further details about this complex subject.
CAPITAL LOSS CARRYOVER
For federal income tax purposes, the fund had a capital loss
carryover of $192,237,230 at Aug. 31, 1994, that will expire as
follows:

It is unlikely that the board of directors will authorize a
distribution of any net realized capital gains until the available
capital loss carryover has been offset or has expired except as
required by Internal Revenue Service rules.
TAXES
Net investment income dividends received should be treated as
dividend income for federal income tax purposes. Corporate
shareholders are generally entitled to a deduction equal to 70% of
that portion of the fund's dividend that is attributable to
dividends the fund received from domestic (U.S.) securities. For
the fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 1994, 7.01% of the fund's net
investment income dividends qualified for the corporate deduction.
Capital gain distributions received by individual and corporate
shareholders, if any, should be treated as long-term capital gains
regardless of how long they owned their shares. Short-term capital
gains earned by the fund are paid to shareholders as part of their
ordinary income dividend and are taxable.
You may be able to defer taxes on current income from a fund by
investing through an IRA, 401(k) plan account or other qualified
retirement account. If you move all or part of a non-qualified
investment in the fund to a qualified account, this type of
exchange is considered a sale of shares. You pay no sales charge,
but the exchange may result in a gain or loss for tax purposes, or
excess contributions under IRA or qualified plan regulations.
Under federal tax law, by the end of a calendar year the fund must
declare and pay dividends representing 98% of ordinary income for
that calendar year and 98% of net capital gains (both long-term and
short-term) for the 12-month period ending Oct. 31 of that calendar
year. The fund is subject to an excise tax equal to 4% of the
excess, if any, of the amount required to be distributed over the
amount actually distributed. The fund intends to comply with
federal tax law and avoid any excise tax.
The fund may be subject to U.S. taxes resulting from holdings in a
passive foreign investment company (PFIC). A foreign corporation
is a PFIC when 75% or more of its gross income for the taxable year
is passive income or if 50% or more of the average value of its<PAGE>
PAGE 47
assets consists of assets that produce or could produce passive
income. The fund has no current intention to invest in PFICs.
This is a brief summary that relates to federal income taxation
only. Shareholders should consult their tax adviser as to the
application of federal, state and local income tax laws to fund
distributions.
AGREEMENTS
Investment Management and Services Agreement
The fund has an Investment Management and Services Agreement with
IDS. For its services, IDS is paid a fee composed of an asset
charge in two parts. The first part, the group asset charge, is
based on the combined daily net assets of all funds in the IDS
MUTUAL FUND GROUP, except the money market funds, including any new
fund that may be organized in the future. The daily rate of the
group asset charge is based upon the following schedule:
Group Asset Charge
Group assets Annual rate at Effective
(billions) each asset level annual rate
First $5 0.460% 0.460%
Next $5 0.440 0.450
Next $5 0.420 0.440
Next $5 0.400 0.430
Next $5 0.390 0.422
Next $5 0.380 0.415
Next $5 0.360 0.407
Next $5 0.350 0.400
Next $5 0.340 0.393
Next $5 0.330 0.387
Over $50 0.320
The aggregate net assets of all non-money market funds in the IDS
MUTUAL FUND GROUP were $45,532,823,228 on Aug. 31, 1994, and the
daily rate applied to the fund's assets was equal to approximately
0.39% on an annual basis.
The second part of the asset charge is calculated at an annual rate
of 0.21% and is based on the unique characteristics of the fund,
including the fund's use of services provided by IDS in the areas
of investment research, portfolio management, investment services
and fund accounting. The total fee is calculated for each calendar
day on the basis of net assets as of the close of business two
business days prior to the day for which the calculation is made.
The management fee is paid monthly. The total amount paid was
$10,075,839 for the fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 1994, $8,481,616 for
fiscal year 1993, and $7,303,989 for fiscal year 1992.
<PAGE>
PAGE 48
Under the current Agreement, the fund also pays taxes, brokerage
commissions and nonadvisory expenses, that include custodian fees;
audit and certain legal fees; fidelity bond premiums; registration
fees for shares; fund office expenses; consultants' fees;
compensation of directors, officers and employees; corporate filing
fees; Investment Company Institute dues; organizational expenses;
expenses incurred in connection with lending portfolio securities
of the fund; and expenses properly payable by the fund, approved by
the board of directors. The fund paid nonadvisory expenses of
$765,283 for the fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 1994, $617,372 for
fiscal year 1993, and $455,737 for fiscal year 1992.
Transfer Agency Agreement
The fund has a Transfer Agency Agreement with IDS. This agreement
governs IDS' responsibility for administering and/or performing
transfer agent functions, for acting as service agent in connection
with dividend and distribution functions and for performing
shareholder account administration agent functions in connection
with the issuance, exchange and redemption or repurchase of the
fund's shares. Under the agreement, IDS will earn a fee from the
fund determined by multiplying the number of shareholder accounts
at the end of the day by a rate of $15.50 per year and dividing by
the number of days in the year. The fees paid to IDS may be
changed from time to time upon agreement of the parties without
shareholder approval. The fund paid fees of $1,670,276 for the
fiscal year ended Aug. 31, 1994.
Distribution Agreement
Under a Distribution Agreement, sales charges deducted for
distributing fund shares are paid to IDS Financial Services Inc.
daily. These charges amounted to $14,976,206 for the fiscal year
ended Aug. 31, 1994. After paying commissions to personal
financial planners, and other expenses, the amount retained was
$5,203,445. The amounts were $10,927,944 and $3,791,288 for fiscal
year 1993, and $7,669,990 and $2,667,094 for fiscal year 1992.

**Distribution fees paid pursuant to the Plan and Supplemental
Agreement of Distribution.
Plan and Supplemental Agreement of Distribution
To help IDS defray the cost of distribution and servicing, not
covered by the sales charges received under the Distribution
Agreement, the fund and IDS entered into a Plan and Supplemental
Agreement of Distribution (Plan). These costs cover almost all
aspects of distributing the fund shares except compensation to the
sales force. A substantial portion of the costs are not
specifically identified to any one fund in the IDS MUTUAL FUND
GROUP. Under the Plan, IDS is paid a fee determined by multiplying
the number of shareholder accounts at the end of each day by a rate
of $6 per year and dividing by the number of days in the year.
The Plan must be approved annually by the directors, including a
majority of the disinterested directors, if it is to continue for
more than a year. At least quarterly, the directors must review
written reports concerning the amounts expended under the Plan and
the purposes for which such expenditures were made. The Plan and
any agreement related to it may be terminated at any time by vote
of a majority of directors who are not interested persons of the
fund and have no direct or indirect financial interest in the
operation of the Plan or in any agreement related to the Plan, or
by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the
fund or by IDS. The Plan (or any agreement related to it) shall
terminate in the event of its assignment, as that term is defined
in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Plan may
not be amended to increase the amount to be spent for distribution
without shareholder approval, and all material amendments to the
Plan must be approved by a majority of the directors, including a
majority of the directors who are not interested persons of the
fund and who do not have a financial interest in the operation of
the Plan or any agreement related to it. The selection and
nomination of such disinterested directors is the responsibility of
such disinterested directors. No interested person of the fund,
and no director who is not an interested person, has any direct or
indirect financial interest in the operation of the Plan or any
related agreement.
Total fees and nonadvisory expenses cannot exceed the most
restrictive applicable state limitation. Currently, the most
restrictive applicable state expense limitation, subject to
exclusion of certain expenses, is 2.5% of the first $30 million of
the fund's average daily net assets, 2% of the next $70 million and
1.5% of average daily net assets over $100 million, on an annual
basis. At the end of each month, if the fees and expenses of the
fund exceed this limitation for the fund's fiscal year in progress,
IDS will assume all expenses in excess of the limitation. IDS then
may bill the fund for such expenses in subsequent months up to the
end of that fiscal year, but not after that date. No interest
charges are assessed by IDS for expenses it assumes.

APPENDIX A
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS
Since investments in foreign countries usually involve currencies
of foreign countries, and since the fund may hold cash and cash-
equivalent investments in foreign currencies, the value of the
fund's assets as measured in U.S. dollars may be affected favorably
or unfavorably by changes in currency exchange rates and exchange
control regulations. Also, the fund may incur costs in connection
with conversions between various currencies.
Spot Rates and Forward Contracts. The fund conducts its foreign
currency exchange transactions either at the spot (cash) rate
prevailing in the foreign currency exchange market or by entering
into forward currency exchange contracts (forward contracts) as a
hedge against fluctuations in future foreign exchange rates. A
forward contract involves an obligation to buy or sell a specific
currency at a future date, which may be any fixed number of days
from the contract date, at a price set at the time of the contract.
These contracts are traded in the interbank market conducted
directly between currency traders (usually large commercial banks)
and their customers. A forward contract generally has no deposit
requirements. No commissions are charged at any stage for trades.
The fund may enter into forward contracts to settle a security
transaction or handle dividend and interest collection. When the
fund enters into a contract for the purchase or sale of a security
denominated in a foreign currency or has been notified of a
dividend or interest payment, it may desire to lock in the price of
the security or the amount of the payment in dollars. By entering
into a forward contract, the fund will be able to protect itself
against a possible loss resulting from an adverse change in the
relationship between different currencies from the date the
security is purchased or sold to the date on which payment is made
or received or when the dividend or interest is actually received.
The fund also may enter into forward contracts when management of
the fund believes the currency of a particular foreign country may
suffer a substantial decline against another currency. It may
enter into a forward contract to sell, for a fixed amount of
dollars, the amount of foreign currency approximating the value of
some or all of the fund's portfolio securities denominated in such
foreign currency. The precise matching of forward contract amounts
and the value of securities involved generally will not be possible
since the future value of such securities in foreign currencies
more than likely will change between the date the forward contract
is entered into and the date it matures. The projection of short-
term currency market movements is extremely difficult and
successful execution of a short-term hedging strategy is highly
uncertain. The fund will not enter into such forward contracts or
maintain a net exposure to such contracts when consummating the
contracts would obligate the fund to deliver an amount of foreign
currency in excess of the value of the fund's portfolio securities<PAGE>
PAGE 55
or other assets denominated in that currency.
The fund will designate cash or securities in an amount equal to
the value of the fund's total assets committed to consummating
forward contracts entered into under the second circumstance set
forth above. If the value of the securities declines, additional
cash or securities will be designated on a daily basis so that the
value of the cash or securities will equal the amount of the fund's
commitments on such contracts.
At maturity of a forward contract, the fund may either sell the
portfolio security and make delivery of the foreign currency or
retain the security and terminate its contractual obligation to
deliver the foreign currency by purchasing an offsetting contract
with the same currency trader obligating it to buy, on the same
maturity date, the same amount of foreign currency.
If the fund retains the portfolio security and engages in an
offsetting transaction, the fund will incur a gain or a loss (as
described below) to the extent there has been movement in forward
contract prices. If the fund engages in an offsetting transaction,
it may subsequently enter into a new forward contract to sell the
foreign currency. Should forward prices decline between the date
the fund enters into a forward contract for selling foreign
currency and the date it enters into an offsetting contract for
purchasing the foreign currency, the fund will realize a gain to
the extent that the price of the currency it has agreed to sell
exceeds the price of the currency it has agreed to buy. Should
forward prices increase, the fund will suffer a loss to the extent
the price of the currency it has agreed to buy exceeds the price of
the currency it has agreed to sell.
It is impossible to forecast what the market value of portfolio
securities will be at the expiration of a contract. Accordingly,
it may be necessary for the fund to buy additional foreign currency
on the spot market (and bear the expense of such purchase) if the
market value of the security is less than the amount of foreign
currency the fund is obligated to deliver and a decision is made to
sell the security and make delivery of the foreign currency.
Conversely, it may be necessary to sell on the spot market some of
the foreign currency received on the sale of the portfolio security
if its market value exceeds the amount of foreign currency the fund
is obligated to deliver.
The fund's dealing in forward contracts will be limited to the
transactions described above. This method of protecting the value
of the fund's portfolio securities against a decline in the value
of a currency does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying
prices of the securities. It simply establishes a rate of exchange
that can be achieved at some point in time. Although such forward
contracts tend to minimize the risk of loss due to a decline in
value of hedged currency, they tend to limit any potential gain
that might result should the value of such currency increase.
<PAGE>
PAGE 56
Although the fund values its assets each business day in terms of
U.S. dollars, it does not intend to convert its foreign currencies
into U.S. dollars on a daily basis. It will do so from time to
time, and shareholders should be aware of currency conversion
costs. Although foreign exchange dealers do not charge a fee for
conversion, they do realize a profit based on the difference
(spread) between the prices at which they are buying and selling
various currencies. Thus, a dealer may offer to sell a foreign
currency to the fund at one rate, while offering a lesser rate of
exchange should the fund desire to resell that currency to the
dealer.
Options on Foreign Currencies. The fund may buy put and write
covered call options on foreign currencies for hedging purposes.
For example, a decline in the dollar value of a foreign currency in
which portfolio securities are denominated will reduce the dollar
value of such securities, even if their value in the foreign
currency remains constant. In order to protect against such
diminutions in the value of portfolio securities, the fund may buy
put options on the foreign currency. If the value of the currency
does decline, the fund will have the right to sell such currency
for a fixed amount in dollars and will thereby offset, in whole or
in part, the adverse effect on its portfolio which otherwise would
have resulted.
As in the case of other types of options, however, the benefit to
the fund derived from purchases of foreign currency options will be
reduced by the amount of the premium and related transaction costs.
In addition, where currency exchange rates do not move in the
direction or to the extent anticipated, the fund could sustain
losses on transactions in foreign currency options which would
require it to forego a portion or all of the benefits of
advantageous changes in such rates.
The fund may write options on foreign currencies for the same types
of hedging purposes. For example, when the fund anticipates a
decline in the dollar value of foreign-denominated securities due
to adverse fluctuations in exchange rates, it could, instead of
purchasing a put option, write a call option on the relevant
currency. If the expected decline occurs, the option will most
likely not be exercised and the diminution in value of portfolio
securities will be fully or partially offset by the amount of the
premium received.
As in the case of other types of options, however, the writing of a
foreign currency option will constitute only a partial hedge up to
the amount of the premium, and only if rates move in the expected
direction. If this does not occur, the option may be exercised and
the fund would be required to buy or sell the underlying currency
at a loss which may not be offset by the amount of the premium.
Through the writing of options on foreign currencies, the fund also
may be required to forego all or a portion of the benefits which
might otherwise have been obtained from favorable movements on
exchange rates.<PAGE>
PAGE 57
All options written on foreign currencies will be covered. An
option written on foreign currencies is covered if the fund holds
currency sufficient to cover the option or has an absolute and
immediate right to acquire that currency without additional cash
consideration upon conversion of assets denominated in that
currency or exchange of other currency held in its portfolio. An
option writer could lose amounts substantially in excess of its
initial investments, due to the margin and collateral requirements
associated with such positions.
Options on foreign currencies are traded through financial
institutions acting as market-makers, although foreign currency
options also are traded on certain national securities exchanges,
such as the Philadelphia Stock Exchange and the Chicago Board
Options Exchange, subject to SEC regulation. In an over-the-
counter trading environment, many of the protections afforded to
exchange participants will not be available. For example, there
are no daily price fluctuation limits, and adverse market movements
could therefore continue to an unlimited extent over a period of
time. Although the purchaser of an option cannot lose more than
the amount of the premium plus related transaction costs, this
entire amount could be lost.
Foreign currency option positions entered into on a national
securities exchange are cleared and guaranteed by the OCC, thereby
reducing the risk of counterparty default. Further, a liquid
secondary market in options traded on a national securities
exchange may be more readily available than in the over-the-counter
market, potentially permitting the fund to liquidate open positions
at a profit prior to exercise or expiration, or to limit losses in
the event of adverse market movements.
The purchase and sale of exchange-traded foreign currency options,
however, is subject to the risks of availability of a liquid
secondary market described above, as well as the risks regarding
adverse market movements, margining of options written, the nature
of the foreign currency market, possible intervention by
governmental authorities and the effects of other political and
economic events. In addition, exchange-traded options on foreign
currencies involve certain risks not presented by the over-the-
counter market. For example, exercise and settlement of such
options must be made exclusively through the OCC, which has
established banking relationships in certain foreign countries for
the purpose. As a result, the OCC may, if it determines that
foreign governmental restrictions or taxes would prevent the
orderly settlement of foreign currency option exercises, or would
result in undue burdens on OCC or its clearing member, impose
special procedures on exercise and settlement, such as technical
changes in the mechanics of delivery of currency, the fixing of
dollar settlement prices or prohibitions on exercise.
Foreign Currency Futures and Related Options. The fund may enter
into currency futures contracts to sell currencies. It also may
buy put and write covered call options on currency futures. <PAGE>
PAGE 58
Currency futures contracts are similar to currency forward
contracts, except that they are traded on exchanges (and have
margin requirements) and are standardized as to contract size and
delivery date. Most currency futures call for payment of delivery
in U.S. dollars. The fund may use currency futures for the same
purposes as currency forward contracts, subject to CFTC
limitations, including the limitation on the percentage of assets
that may be used, described in the prospectus. All futures
contracts are aggregated for purposes of the percentage
limitations.
Currency futures and options on futures values can be expected to
correlate with exchange rates, but will not reflect other factors
that may affect the values of the fund's investments. A currency
hedge, for example, should protect a Yen-denominated bond against a
decline in the Yen, but will not protect the fund against price
decline if the issuer's creditworthiness deteriorates. Because the
value of the fund's investments denominated in foreign currency
will change in response to many factors other than exchange rates,
it may not be possible to match the amount of a forward contract to
the value of the fund's investments denominated in that currency
over time.
The fund will not use leverage in its options and futures
strategies. The fund will hold securities or other options or
futures positions whose values are expected to offset its
obligations. The fund will not enter into an option or futures
position that exposes the fund to an obligation to another party
unless it owns either (i) an offsetting position in securities or
(ii) cash, receivables and short-term debt securities with a value
sufficient to cover its potential obligations.
<PAGE>
PAGE 59
APPENDIX B
OPTIONS AND INTEREST RATE FUTURES CONTRACTS AND ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION ON INVESTMENT POLICIES
The fund may buy or write options traded on any U.S. or foreign
exchange or in the over-the-counter market. The fund may enter
into interest rate futures contracts traded on any U.S. or foreign
exchange. The fund also may buy or write put and call options on
these futures. Options in the over-the-counter market will be
purchased only when the investment manager believes a liquid
secondary market exists for the options and only from dealers and
institutions the investment manager believes present a minimal
credit risk. Some options are exercisable only on a specific date.
In that case, or if a liquid secondary market does not exist, the
fund could be required to buy or sell securities at disadvantageous
prices, thereby incurring losses. While there are limits on
certain types of derivatives, there is no overall limit on the use
of derivatives.
OPTIONS. An option is a contract. A person who buys a call option
for a security has the right to buy the security at a set price for
the length of the contract. A person who sells a call option is
called a writer. The writer of a call option agrees to sell the
security at the set price when the buyer wants to exercise the
option, no matter what the market price of the security is at that
time. A person who buys a put option has the right to sell a
security at a set price for the length of the contract. A person
who writes a put option agrees to buy the security at the set price
if the purchaser wants to exercise the option, no matter what the
market price of the security is at that time. An option is covered
if the writer owns the security (in the case of a call) or sets
aside the cash (in the case of a put) that would be required upon
exercise.
The price paid by the buyer for an option is called a premium. In
addition the buyer generally pays a broker a commission. The
writer receives a premium, less a commission, at the time the
option is written. The cash received is retained by the writer
whether or not the option is exercised. A writer of a call option
may have to sell the security for a below-market price if the
market price rises above the exercise price. A writer of a put
option may have to pay an above-market price for the security if
its market price decreases below the exercise price.
Options can be used to produce incremental earnings, protect gains
and facilitate buying and selling securities for investment
purposes. The use of options and futures contracts may benefit the
fund and its shareholders by improving the fund's liquidity and by
helping to stabilize the value of its net assets.
Buying options. Put and call options may be used as a trading
technique to facilitate buying and selling securities for
investment reasons. They also may be used for investment. Options<PAGE>
PAGE 60
are used as a trading technique to take advantage of any disparity
between the price of the underlying security in the securities
market and its price on the options market. It is anticipated the
trading technique will be utilized only to effect a transaction
when the price of the security plus the option price will be as
good or better than the price at which the security could be bought
or sold directly. When the option is purchased, the fund pays a
premium and a commission. It then pays a second commission on the
purchase or sale of the underlying security when the option is
exercised. For record-keeping and tax purposes, the price obtained
on the purchase of the underlying security will be the combination
of the exercise price, the premium and both commissions. When
using options as a trading technique, commissions on the option
will be set as if only the underlying securities were traded.
Put and call options also may be held by the fund for investment
purposes. Options permit the fund to experience the change in the
value of a security with a relatively small initial cash
investment. The risk the fund assumes when it buys an option is
the loss of the premium. To be beneficial to the fund, the price
of the underlying security must change within the time set by the
option contract. Furthermore, the change must be sufficient to
cover the premium paid, the commissions paid both in the
acquisition of the option and in a closing transaction or in the
exercise of the option and subsequent sale (in the case of a call)
or purchase (in the case of a put) of the underlying security.
Even then the price change in the underlying security does not
ensure a profit since prices in the option market may not reflect
such a change.
Writing covered options. The fund will write covered options when
it feels it is appropriate and will follow these guidelines:
'Underlying securities will continue to be bought or sold solely on
the basis of investment considerations consistent with the fund's
goal.
'All options written by the fund will be covered. For covered call
options if a decision is made to sell the security, the fund will
attempt to terminate the option contract through a closing purchase
transaction.
'The fund will write options only as permitted under federal or
state laws or regulations, such as those that limit the amount of
total assets subject to the options. While no limit has been set
by the fund, it will conform to the requirements of those states.
For example, California limits the writing of options to 50% of the
assets of a fund.
Net premiums on call options closed or premiums on expired call
options are treated as short-term capital gains. Since the fund is
taxed as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue
Code, any gains on options and other securities held less than
three months must be limited to less than 30% of its annual gross
income.<PAGE>
PAGE 61
If a covered call option is exercised, the security is sold by the
fund. The fund will recognize a capital gain or loss based upon
the difference between the proceeds and the security's basis.
Options on many securities are listed on options exchanges. If the
fund writes listed options, it will follow the rules of the options
exchange. Options are valued at the close of the New York Stock
Exchange. An option listed on a national exchange, CBOE or NASDAQ
will be valued at the last quoted sales price or, if such a price
is not readily available, at the mean of the last bid and asked
prices.
FUTURES CONTRACTS. A futures contract is an agreement between two
parties to buy and sell a security for a set price on a future
date. They have been established by boards of trade which have
been designated contracts markets by the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission (CFTC). Futures contracts trade on these markets in a
manner similar to the way a stock trades on a stock exchange, and
the boards of trade, through their clearing corporations, guarantee
performance of the contracts. Currently, there are futures
contracts based on such debt securities as long-term U.S. Treasury
bonds, Treasury notes, GNMA modified pass-through mortgage-backed
securities, three-month U.S. Treasury bills and bank certificates
of deposit. While futures contracts based on debt securities do
provide for the delivery and acceptance of securities, such
deliveries and acceptances are very seldom made. Generally, the
futures contract is terminated by entering into an offsetting
transaction. An offsetting transaction for a futures contract sale
is effected by the fund entering into a futures contract purchase
for the same aggregate amount of the specific type of financial
instrument and same delivery date. If the price in the sale
exceeds the price in the offsetting purchase, the fund immediately
is paid the difference and realizes a gain. If the offsetting
purchase price exceeds the sale price, the fund pays the difference
and realizes a loss. Similarly, closing out a futures contract
purchase is effected by the fund entering into a futures contract
sale. If the offsetting sale price exceeds the purchase price, the
fund realizes a gain, and if the offsetting sale price is less than
the purchase price, the fund realizes a loss. At the time a
futures contract is made, a good-faith deposit called initial
margin is set up within a segregated account at the fund's
custodian bank. The initial margin deposit is approximately 1.5%
of a contract's face value. Daily thereafter, the futures contract
is valued and the payment of variation margin is required so that
each day the fund would pay out cash in an amount equal to any
decline in the contract's value or receive cash equal to any
increase. At the time a futures contract is closed out, a nominal
commission is paid, which is generally lower than the commission on
a comparable transaction in the cash markets.
The purpose of a futures contract, in the case of a portfolio
holding long-term debt securities, is to gain the benefit of
changes in interest rates without actually buying or selling long-
term debt securities. For example, if the fund owned long-term
bonds and interest rates were expected to increase, it might enter<PAGE>
PAGE 62
into futures contracts to sell securities which would have much the
same effect as selling some of the long-term bonds it owned.
Futures contracts are based on types of debt securities referred to
above, which have historically reacted to an increase or decline in
interest rates in a fashion similar to the debt securities the fund
owns. If interest rates did increase, the value of the debt
securities in the portfolio would decline, but the value of the
fund's futures contracts would increase at approximately the same
rate, thereby keeping the net asset value of the fund from
declining as much as it otherwise would have. If, on the other
hand, the fund held cash reserves and interest rates were expected
to decline, the fund might enter into interest rate futures
contracts for the purchase of securities. If short-term rates were
higher than long-term rates, the ability to continue holding these
cash reserves would have a very beneficial impact on the fund's
earnings. Even if short-term rates were not higher, the fund would
still benefit from the income earned by holding these short-term
investments. At the same time, by entering into futures contracts
for the purchase of securities, the fund could take advantage of
the anticipated rise in the value of long-term bonds without
actually buying them until the market had stabilized. At that
time, the futures contracts could be liquidated and the fund's cash
reserves could then be used to buy long-term bonds on the cash
market. The fund could accomplish similar results by selling bonds
with long maturities and investing in bonds with short maturities
when interest rates are expected to increase or by buying bonds
with long maturities and selling bonds with short maturities when
interest rates are expected to decline. But by using futures
contracts as an investment tool, given the greater liquidity in the
futures market than in the cash market, it might be possible to
accomplish the same result more easily and more quickly.
Successful use of futures contracts depends on the investment
manager's ability to predict the future direction of interest
rates. If the investment manager's prediction is incorrect, the
fund would have been better off had it not entered into futures
contracts.
OPTIONS ON FUTURES CONTRACTS. Options give the holder a right to
buy or sell futures contracts in the future. Unlike a futures
contract, which requires the parties to the contract to buy and
sell a security on a set date, an option on a futures contract
merely entitles its holder to decide on or before a future date
(within nine months of the date of issue) whether to enter into
such a contract. If the holder decides not to enter into the
contract, all that is lost is the amount (premium) paid for the
option. Furthermore, because the value of the option is fixed at
the point of sale, there are no daily payments of cash to reflect
the change in the value of the underlying contract. However, since
an option gives the buyer the right to enter into a contract at a
set price for a fixed period of time, its value does change daily
and that change is reflected in the net asset value of the fund.
<PAGE>
PAGE 63
RISKS. There are risks in engaging in each of the management tools
described above. The risk the fund assumes when it buys an option
is the loss of the premium paid for the option. Purchasing options
also limits the use of monies that might otherwise be available for
long-term investments.
The risk involved in writing options on futures contracts the fund
owns, or on securities held in its portfolio, is that there could
be an increase in the market value of such contracts or securities.
If that occurred, the option would be exercised and the asset sold
at a lower price than the cash market price. To some extent, the
risk of not realizing a gain could be reduced by entering into a
closing transaction. The fund could enter into a closing
transaction by purchasing an option with the same terms as the one
it had previously sold. The cost to close the option and terminate
the fund's obligation, however, might be more or less than the
premium received when it originally wrote the option. Furthermore,
the fund might not be able to close the option because of
insufficient activity in the options market.
A risk in employing futures contracts to protect against the price
volatility of portfolio securities is that the prices of securities
subject to futures contracts may not correlate perfectly with the
behavior of the cash prices of the fund's portfolio securities.
The correlation may be distorted because the futures market is
dominated by short-term traders seeking to profit from the
difference between a contract or security price and their cost of
borrowed funds. Such distortions are generally minor and would
diminish as the contract approached maturity.
Another risk is that the fund's investment manager could be
incorrect in anticipating as to the direction or extent of various
interest rate movements or the time span within which the movements
take place. For example, if the fund sold futures contracts for
the sale of securities in anticipation of an increase in interest
rates, and interest rates declined instead, the fund would lose
money on the sale.
TAX TREATMENT. As permitted under federal income tax laws, the
fund intends to identify futures contracts as mixed straddles and
not mark them to market, that is, not treat them as having been
sold at the end of the year at market value. Such an election may
result in the fund being required to defer recognizing losses
incurred by entering into futures contracts and losses on
underlying securities identified as being hedged against.
Federal income-tax treatment of gains or losses from transactions
in options on futures contracts and indexes is presently unclear,
although the fund's tax advisers currently believe marking to
market is not required. Depending on developments, and although no
assurance is given, the fund may seek Internal Revenue Service
(IRS) rulings clarifying questions concerning such treatment.
Certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code may also limit the
fund's ability to engage in futures contracts and related options<PAGE>
PAGE 64
transactions. For example, at the close of each quarter of the
fund's taxable year, at least 50% of the value of its assets must
consist of cash, government securities and other securities,
subject to certain diversification requirements. Less than 30% of
its gross income must be derived from sales of securities held less
than three months.
The IRS has ruled publicly that an exchange-traded call option is a
security for purposes of the 50-percent-of-assets test and that its
issuer is the issuer of the underlying security, not the writer of
the option, for purposes of the diversification requirements. In
order to avoid realizing a gain within the three-month period, the
fund may be required to defer closing out a contract beyond the
time when it might otherwise be advantageous to do so. The fund
also may be restricted in purchasing put options for the purpose of
hedging underlying securities because of applying the short sale
holding period rules with respect to such underlying securities.
Accounting for futures contracts will be according to generally
accepted accounting principles. Initial margin deposits will be
recognized as assets due from a broker (the fund's agent in
acquiring the futures position). During the period the futures
contract is open, changes in value of the contract will be
recognized as unrealized gains or losses by marking to market on a
daily basis to reflect the market value of the contract at the end
of each day's trading. Variation margin payments will be made or
received depending upon whether gains or losses are incurred. All
contracts and options will be valued at the last-quoted sales price
on their primary exchange.
When-Issued Securities
The fund may purchase some securities in advance of when they are
issued. Price and rate of interest are set on the date the
commitments are given but no payment is made or interest earned
until the date the securities are issued, usually within two
months, but other terms may be negotiated. The commitment requires
the fund to buy the security when it is issued so the commitment is
valued daily the same way as owning a security would be valued.
The fund designates cash or liquid high-grade debt securities to at
least equal the amount of its commitment. Under normal market
conditions, the fund does not intend to commit more than 5% of its
total assets to these practices. The fund may sell the commitment
just like it can sell a security. Frequently, the fund has the
opportunity to sell the commitment back to the institution.
Inverse Floaters
The Fund may invest in securities called "inverse floaters."
Inverse floaters are created by underwriters using the interest
payments on securities. A portion of the interest received is paid
to holders of instruments based on current interest rates for
short-term securities. What is left over, less a servicing fee, is
paid to holders of the inverse floaters. As interest rates go
down, the holders of the inverse floaters receive more income and
<PAGE>
PAGE 65
an increase in the price for the inverse floaters. As interest
rates go up, the holders of the inverse floaters receive less
income and a decrease in the price for the inverse floaters.
<PAGE>

APPENDIX C
MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES
A mortgage pass through certificate is one that represents an
interest in a pool, or group, of mortgage loans assembled by the
Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA), Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), Federal National Mortgage Association
(FNMA) or non-governmental entities. In pass-through certificates,
both principal and interest payments, including prepayments, are
passed through to the holder of the certificate. Prepayments on
underlying mortgages result in a loss of anticipated interest, and
the actual yield (or total return) to the fund, which is influenced
by both stated interest rates and market conditions, may be
different than the quoted yield on certificates. Some U.S.
government securities may be purchased on a "when-issued" basis,
which means that it may take as long as 45 days after the purchase
before the securities are delivered to the fund.
Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities. The fund may invest in
stripped mortgage-backed securities. Generally, there are two
classes of stripped mortgage-backed securities: Interest Only (IO)
and Principal Only (PO). IOs entitle the holder to receive
distributions consisting of all or a portion of the interest on the
underlying pool of mortgage loans or mortgage-backed securities.
POs entitle the holder to receive distributions consisting of all
or a portion of the principal of the underlying pool of mortgage
loans or mortgage-backed securities. The cash flows and yields on
IOs and POs are extremely sensitive to the rate of principal
payments (including prepayments) on the underlying mortgage loans
or mortgage-backed securities. A rapid rate of principal payments
may adversely affect the yield to maturity of IOs. A slow rate of
principal payments may adversely affect the yield to maturity of
POs. If prepayments of principal are greater than anticipated, an
investor may incur substantial losses. If prepayments of principal
are slower than anticipated, the yield on a PO will be affected
more severely than would be the case with a traditional mortgage-
backed security.
Mortgage-Backed Security Spread Options. The fund may purchase
mortgage-backed security (MBS) put spread options and write covered
MBS call spread options. MBS spread options are based upon the
changes in the price spread between a specified mortgage-backed
security and a like-duration Treasury security. MBS spread options
are traded in the OTC market and are of short duration, typically
one to two months. The fund would buy or sell covered MBS call
spread options in situations where mortgage-backed securities are
expected to under perform like-duration Treasury securities.

APPENDIX D
DOLLAR-COST AVERAGING
A technique that works well for many investors is one that
eliminates random buy and sell decisions. One such system is
dollar-cost averaging. Dollar-cost averaging involves building a
portfolio through the investment of fixed amounts of money on a
regular basis regardless of the price or market condition. This
may enable an investor to smooth out the effects of the volatility
of the financial markets. By using this strategy, more shares will
be purchased when the price is low and less when the price is high.
As the accompanying chart illustrates, dollar-cost averaging tends
to keep the average price paid for the shares lower than the
average market price of shares purchased, although there is no
guarantee.
While this does not ensure a profit and does not protect against a
loss if the market declines, it is an effective way for many
shareholders who can continue investing through changing market
conditions to accumulate shares in a fund to meet long term goals.

__________________________________________________________________
1. Summary of significant accounting policies
The fund is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (as amended) as a
diversified, open-end management investment
company. Significant accounting policies followed
by the fund are summarized below:
Valuation of securities
All securities are valued at the close of each
business day. Securities traded on national
securities exchanges or included in national
market systems are valued at the last quoted
sales price; securities for which market
quotations are not readily available, including
illiquid securities, are valued at fair value
according to methods selected in good faith by
the board of directors. Determination of fair
value involves, among other things, reference to
market indexes, matrixes and data from
independent brokers. Short-term securities
maturing in more than 60 days from the valuation
date are valued at the market price or
approximate market value based on current
interest rates; those maturing in 60 days or less
are valued at amortized cost.
Options transactions
In order to produce incremental earnings, protect
gains, and facilitate buying and selling of
securities for investment purposes, the fund may
buy or write options traded on any U.S. or
foreign exchange or in the over-the-counter
market where the completion of the obligation is
dependent upon the credit standing of the other
party. The fund also may buy and sell put and
call options and write covered call options on
portfolio securities and may write cash-secured
put options. The risk in writing a call option is
that the fund gives up the opportunity of profit
if the market price of the security increases.
The risk in writing a put option is that the fund
may incur a loss if the market price of the
security decreases and the option is exercised.
The risk in buying an option is that the fund
pays a premium whether or not the option is
exercised. The fund also has the additional risk
of not being able to enter into a closing
transaction if a liquid secondary market does not
exist.
<PAGE>
PAGE 74
Notes to financial statements
IDS Extra Income Fund, Inc.
___________________________________________________________________
Option contracts are valued daily at the closing
prices on their primary exchanges and unrealized
appreciation or depreciation is recorded. The
fund will realize a gain or loss upon expiration
or closing of the option transaction. When
options on debt securities or futures are
exercised, the fund will realize a gain or loss.
When other options are exercised, the proceeds on
sales for a written call option, the purchase
cost for a written put option or the cost of a
security for a purchased put or call option is
adjusted by the amount of premium received or
paid.
Foreign currency translations and
foreign currency contracts
Securities and other assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign currencies are translated
daily into U.S. dollars at the closing rate of
exchange. Foreign currency amounts related to the
purchase or sale of securities and income and
expenses are translated at the exchange rate on
the transaction date. The effect of changes in
foreign exchange rates on realized and unrealized
security gains or losses is reflected as a
component of such gains or losses. In the
statement of operations, net realized gains or
losses from foreign currency transactions may
arise from sales of foreign currency, closed
forward contracts, exchange gains or losses
realized between the trade date and settlement
dates on securites transactions, and other
translation gains or losses on dividends,
interest income and foreign withholding taxes.
<PAGE>
PAGE 75
Notes to financial statements
IDS Extra Income Fund, Inc.
___________________________________________________________________
The fund may enter into forward foreign currency
exchange contracts for operational purposes and
to protect against adverse exchange rate
fluctuation. The net U.S. dollar value of
foreign currency underlying all contractual
commitments held by the fund and the resulting
unrealized appreciation or depreciation are
determined using foreign currency exchange rates
from an independent pricing service. The fund is
subject to the credit risk that the other party
will not complete the obligations of the
contract.
Federal taxes
Since the fund's policy is to comply with all
sections of the Internal Revenue Code applicable
to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income to
shareholders, no provision for income or excise
taxes is required.
Net investment income (loss) and net realized
gains (losses) may differ for financial statement
and tax purposes primarily because of the
deferral of losses on certain futures contracts,
the recognition of certain foreign currency gains
(losses) as ordinary income (loss) for tax
purposes, and losses deferred due to "wash sale"
transactions. The character of distributions made
during the year from net investment income or net
realized gains may differ from their ultimate
characterization for federal income tax purposes.
Also, due to the timing of dividend
distributions, the fiscal year in which amounts
are distributed may differ from the year that the
income or realized gains (losses) were recorded
by the fund.
On the statement of assets and liabilities, as a
result of permanent book-to-tax differences,
undistributed net investment income has been
increased by $1,065,585 and accumulated net
realized loss has been increased by $1,065,585.

Dividends to shareholders
Dividends from net investment income, declared
daily and payable monthly, are reinvested in
additional shares of the fund at net asset value
or payable in cash. Capital gains, when
available, are distributed along with the last
income dividend of the calendar year.
Other
Security transactions are accounted for on the
date securities are purchased or sold. Dividend
income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and
interest income, including level-yield
amortization of premium and discount, is accrued
daily.
___________________________________________________________________
2. Expenses and sales charges
Under terms of an agreement dated Nov. 14, 1991,
the fund pays IDS Financial Corporation (IDS) a
fee for managing its investments, record-keeping
and other specified services. The fee is a
percentage of the fund's average daily net assets
consisting of a group asset charge in reducing
percentages from 0.46% to 0.32% annually on the
combined net assets of all non-money market funds
in the IDS MUTUAL FUND GROUP and an individual
annual asset charge of 0.21% of average daily net
assets.
The fund also pays IDS a distribution fee at an
annual rate of $6 per shareholder account and a
transfer agency fee at an annual rate of $15.50
per shareholder account. The transfer agency fee
is reduced by earnings on monies pending
shareholder redemptions.

Notes to financial statements
IDS Extra Income Fund, Inc.
___________________________________________________________________
IDS will assume and pay any expenses (except
taxes and brokerage commissions) that exceed the
most restrictive applicable state expense
limitation.
Sales charges by IDS Financial Services Inc. for
distributing fund shares were $14,976,206 for the
year ened Aug. 31, 1994.
The fund has a retirement plan for its
independent directors. Upon retirement, directors
receive monthly payments equal to one-half of the
retainer fee for as many months as they served as
directors up to 120 months. There are no death
benefits. The plan is not funded but the fund
recognizes the cost of payments during the time
the directors serve on the board. The retirement
plan expense amounted to $12,546 for the year
ended Aug. 31, 1994.
___________________________________________________________________
3. Securities transactions
Cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of
securities (other than short-term obligations)
aggregated $1,408,212,936 and $1,179,213,279,
respectively, for the year ended Aug. 31, 1994.
Realized gains and losses are determined on an
identified cost basis.

4. Illiquid securities
At Aug. 31, 1994, investments in securities
included issues that are illiquid. The fund
currently limits investments in illiquid
securities to 10% of the net assets, at market
value, at the time of purchase. The aggregate
value of such securities at Aug. 31, 1994 was
$51,542,351 which represents 3.2% of net assets.
Pursuant to guidelines adopted by the fund's
board of directors, certain unregistered
securities are determined to be liquid and are
not included within the 10% limitation specified
above.
___________________________________________________________________
5. Lending of portfolio securities
At Aug. 31, 1994, securities valued at $3,612,187
were on loan to brokers. For collateral, the fund
received $3,700,460 in cash. Income from
securities lending amounted to $138,436 for the
year ended Aug. 31, 1994. The risks to the fund
of securities lending are that the borrower may
not provide additional collateral when required
or return the securities when due.
___________________________________________________________________
6. Capital loss carryover
For federal income tax purposes, the fund had a
capital loss carryover of $192,237,230 at
Aug. 31, 1994, that will expire in 1999 and 2000
if not offset by subsequent capital gains. It is
unlikely the board of directors will authorize a
distribution of any net realized capital gains
until the available capital loss carryover has
been offset or expires.

Item 27. Indemnification
The Articles of Incorporation of the registrant provide that the
Fund shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party, by reason of the fact that she or he
is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Fund, or is
or was serving at the request of the Fund as a director, officer,
employee or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise, to any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding, wherever brought, and the Fund may
purchase liability insurance and advance legal expenses, all to the
fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Minnesota, as
now existing or hereafter amended. The By-laws of the registrant
provide that present or former directors or officers of the Fund
made or threatened to be made a party to or involved (including as
a witness) in an actual or threatened action, suit or proceeding
shall be indemnified by the Fund to the full extent authorized by
the Minnesota Business Corporation Act, all as more fully set forth
in the By-laws filed as an exhibit to this registration statement.
Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense
of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
officer or controlling person in connection with the securities
being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.
Any indemnification hereunder shall not be exclusive of any other
rights of indemnification to which the directors, officers,
employees or agents might otherwise be entitled. No
indemnification shall be made in violation of the Investment
Company Act of 1940.
