                         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
                         ----------------------------


The J. C. Penney Company, Inc.
 Associate Benefits Committee,
 Benefit Plans Investment Committee,
 Retirement Plans Committee, and the
 Benefit Plans Review Committee:


We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the J. C. Penney Company, Inc. Savings, Profit-Sharing and Stock Ownership
Plan as of December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the related statements of changes in
net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the J. C.
Penney Company, Inc. Savings, Profit-Sharing and Stock Ownership Plan as of
December 31, 1993 and 1992, and the changes in net assets available for benefits
for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedules of assets
held for investment purposes and reportable transactions are presented for
purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements but are supplementary information required by the
Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedules
have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

                         Notes to Financial Statements

(1)  Description of Plan
     -------------------

     The following brief description of the provisions of the J. C. Penney
     Company, Inc. Savings, Profit-Sharing and Stock Ownership Plan (the "Plan")
     is provided for general informational purposes only. Participants should
     refer to the Plan summary description for more complete information. The
     Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
     Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA").

     (a)  General
          -------
 
          The Plan is a defined contribution plan available to all eligible
          employees ("Associates") of J. C. Penney Company, Inc. (the "Company")
          and certain subsidiaries. Associates who have completed at least 1,000
          hours of service within a period of 12 consecutive months and have
          attained age 21 are eligible to participate in the Plan.

          The financial statements include all of the funds which comprise the
          Plan. All administrative expenses of the Plan not paid by the Trust
          are paid by the Company.

     (b)  Contributions
          -------------

          Participants that are classified as highly compensated (earning
          $20,000 or more annually) are permitted to contribute from 1% to 10%
          of their earnings with a maximum of 8% in Tax-deferred Deposits
          (subject to annual maximum of $8,994 in 1993 and $8,728 in 1992).
          Nonhighly compensated participants may contribute in 1% increments up
          to 16% of earnings in either Taxed or Tax-deferred Deposits or a
          combination of both.

          The Company contributes to the Plan an amount which when combined with
          the dividends earned on the J. C. Penney Company, Inc. Series B ESOP
          Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") will be sufficient to
          service the semiannual loan payments (see note 3). The Company's
          contribution amounted to $50.1 million in 1993 and $48.7 million in
          1992. At the time of each loan payment shares of Preferred Stock are
          allocated to participants' accounts. In accordance with the terms of
          the Plan, 116,667 shares of Preferred Stock were allocated to
          participants in both 1993 and 1992, and will be allocated to
          participants each year thereafter until 1998. The year-end market
          value of the shares released during 1993 and 1992 was $98.3 million
          and $90.7 million, respectively. A portion of the 116,667 shares will
          be used to satisfy dividends on previously allocated Preferred Stock.
          The remaining shares will be allocated to each participant's Penney
          Preferred Stock Account in accordance with the ratio that each
          participant's deposits, not in excess of 6% of earnings ("matched
          deposits"), bear to all such deposits by participants for the
          applicable Plan year. The value of the 1993 allocation to participants
          was equal to 93% of matched deposits versus 74% in 1992.

                                                                     (Continued)

                          J. C. PENNEY COMPANY, INC.
                          SAVINGS, PROFIT-SHARING AND
                             STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

                         Notes to Financial Statements

 
          If the total value of Preferred Stock released for allocation in any
          year is less than the sum of (i) 4-1/2% of available profits (as
          defined in the Plan document) and (ii) the dividends on previously
          allocated Preferred Stock, the Company is required to make an
          additional contribution in cash or shares of J. C. Penney Company,
          Inc. common stock ("Common Stock") to the Plan which will be deposited
          to the Penney Stock Company Account. The additional Company
          contribution, if any, is allocated to participants based on their
          matched deposits in the same manner as described above.

     (c)  Participants' Accounts
          ----------------------

          Participants' account balances are invested in the Plan's investment
          programs in accordance with their elections. These investment programs
          include the Penney Stock Account (consisting of investments in J. C.
          Penney, Inc. common stock), the S & P 500 Account (consisting of
          investments in commingled equity funds), and the Interest Income
          Account (consisting of contracts with insurance companies and
          structured investment contracts, which provide a specific interest
          rate for a specified period of time). Each of these funds are
          maintained on a unit value basis and, accordingly, the actual earnings
          and appreciation or depreciation in the underlying securities are
          reflected in the daily unit value.

     (d)  Vesting
          -------

          Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and
          earnings thereon. Vesting in the Company Accounts is graduated at 20%
          per full year of service up to 100% after the earlier of 5 years of
          service, normal retirement age, death, or total disability.
          Participants who separate from service prior to full vesting of their
          rights forfeit the unvested balance of their Company Accounts.

     (e)  Payment of Benefits
          -------------------

          Benefits remain in the plan until the participant elects payment. The
          normal form of payment is a lump sum settlement (cash and/or shares of
          Common Stock). In lieu of a lump sum settlement, a retiring
          participant who has attained age 55 with 15 years of Plan service or
          over age 65 may elect an indefinite deferral of their balances (if at
          least $3,500) or elect an optional annuity for life or installment
          payments for a specified period of time. Participants in deferred
          status may request periodic withdrawals, fixed monthly payments of at
          least $100 or a complete distribution. Minimum distributions will be
          made in the year the participant attains age 70 and each year
          thereafter to comply with Federal law.

     (f)  Loans to Participants
          ---------------------

          Loans may be made available to participants upon their request. All
          loans must be adequately secured and bear interest at a reasonable
          rate. Loan amounts and the term of repayment are limited in accordance
          with Plan provisions.

                                                                     (Continued)

                         Notes to Financial Statements

(2)  Investments
     -----------

   Investments in securities are stated at fair value using quoted market
   prices.  The fair value of the Preferred Stock, which is not publicly traded,
   is determined to be the greater of its issue price of $600 per share or the
   Common Stock price into which it can be converted.  The Common Stock is
   widely traded.  Funds with insurance companies are recorded at contract value
   as reported to the Plan by each insurance company.  Each contract is credited
   with earnings and charged for withdrawals.  The Plan also invests in
   structured investment contracts.  Under these arrangements, the Plan enters
   into a wrap agreement with a financial institution at a stated yield on fixed
   income securities purchased by the Plan.  The wrap agreements are stated at
   fair value based on fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying fixed
   income securities.  The average cost method is used to calculate gains and
   losses on the sale of investments on a trade date basis.  Except for certain
   funds with insurance companies, the Plan's investments are held by the
   trustee, State Street Bank and Trust Company.

   The Preferred Stock is convertible into Common Stock at a ratio of 1:20.
   Each 1/20 of a share of Preferred Stock has a minimum value of $30.  The
   Company has the option of settling a participant's Penney Preferred Stock
   Account in cash or whole shares of the Common Stock derived from the
   conversion of the Preferred Stock to Common Stock, or any combination
   thereof, if the market price of Common Stock at the time of distribution is
   equal to or less than the conversion value of $600 per share of the Preferred
   Stock.  However, if the participant requests settlement of such account in
   shares, the participant will receive shares of the Common Stock derived from
   the conversion of the Preferred Stock to Common Stock.  A participant's
   Penney Preferred Stock Account will be settled with the Common Stock derived
   from the conversion of the Preferred Stock to Common Stock if the market
   price of Common Stock exceeds the conversion value of $600 per share of the
   Preferred Stock.  The annual dividend on the Preferred Stock is 7.9%, payable
   semiannually on January 1 and July 1.

   On March 10, 1993, the Company declared a two-for-one Common Stock split in
   the form of a stock dividend payable May 1, 1993 to stockholders of record on
   April 12, 1993.  The shares of Common Stock disclosed in the financial
   statements and notes thereto have been adjusted for this stock split, as has
   the Preferred Stock conversion ratio.


                                                                     (Continued)

   The net asset value for the Penney Preferred Stock Account is based on the

(3)  Loan Payable
     ------------

   The Plan borrowed $700 million in August 1988, through a term loan
   agreement obtained by private placement with several financial institutions.
   The loan is guaranteed by the Company and the proceeds were used to purchase
   the Preferred Stock issued by the Company.  The loan agreement specifies
   semiannual principal and interest payments of $51.2 million on January 1 and
   July 1, with the final installment due in 1998.  The loan bears interest at
   8.17%.

                                                                     (Continued)

(4)  Plan Termination
     ----------------

   While the Company presently has no intention to do so, it reserves the
   right to terminate the Plan and the related J. C. Penney Company, Inc.
   Savings, Profit-Sharing and Stock Ownership Plan Trust (the "Trust") at any
   time subject to the provisions of ERISA.  In the event of Plan termination,
   participants will become fully vested in amounts allocated to their Company
   accounts.

(5)  Tax Status
     ----------

   The Plan obtained its determination letter on August 23, 1993 in which the
   Internal Revenue Service ("Service") stated that the Plan as then designed,
   was in compliance with the applicable qualification requirements of the
   Internal Revenue Code ("Code").  The Plan has been amended subsequent to
   receiving the determination letter; however, the Plan administrator believes
   that the Plan is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the
   applicable requirements of the Code.  Therefore, the Plan administrator
   believes that the Plan was qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as
   of the date of the financial statements.

                                                                     (Continued)
