- ------------------------
* Amount of Trading Income required for the Fund's Net Asset Value per Unit
(Redemption Value) at the end of one year to equal the Selling Price per
Unit/Percentage of Minimum Investment Amount.
(1) Units will be purchased at the Fund's month-end Net Asset Value per Unit.
A 6% Sales Charge and a 3% Offering Expense Charge will be deducted from
the gross investment amount before the net investment units are
calculated.
(2) The Administrative Fees payable to the General Partners will total 1.375%
of the Fund's Net Asset Value on the first day of its fiscal year.
(3) As of December 31, 1998 JWH is managing approximately 65% of the assets of
the Fund at a management fee of 4% per annum. Welton is managing
approximately 35% of the assets at a current management fee of 3% per
annum. This weighted average equals a current combined management fee of
3.65% per annum.
(4) In accordance with the Advisory Contracts between the Fund and the Trading
Advisors, JWH will receive an incentive fee of 15% of new net trading
profits and Welton will receive an incentive fee of 18% of new net trading
profits, both exclusive of interest income. The incentive fees of $12.09
shown above is equal to 16.05% (see weighted average assumption in Note 3
above) of net of total trading income of $146.48 minus $30.00 of brokerage
commissions and trading fees, $36.50 of management fees and $10.00 of
periodic operating expenses.
(5) Brokerage Commissions payable by the Fund with respect to the trading
directed by the Trading Advisors have ranged from 2.46%-6.2% of the Fund's
average annual Net Asset Value over the past ten years of trading. An
estimate of 3.0% of the Net Asset Value, however, is used in this table to
reflect the current brokerage rate in effect that was reduced by 30% on
September 1, 1995. The actual brokerage commissions paid for calendar year
1997 was 2.77%. The actual brokerage commission for calendar year 1998 was
2.98%.
(6) Periodic Operating Expenses are estimated at 1% of the Fund's average
annual Net Asset Value.
(7) The Fund will earn interest income on its assets deposited at the Clearing
Broker. Based on the assumption that interest rates will not undergo a
significant change in the near future, an investment in 90 day T-Bills is
estimated to earn income of 4.50%. The Fund is paid 90% of the 90 day
T-Bill rate by the Cleaning Broker. Interest income to the Fund is
therefore estimated to be 4.05%. Net interest income earnings for the Fund
in 1997 were approximately 5.04% and for 1998 were 4.74%.

(1) Refer to the footnotes to the Supplemental Past Performance of IDS Managed
Futures, L.P. beginning on p. 7, for a detailed analysis of the calculation
of past performance and particularly footnote 13 for an explanation of how
Rate of Return is calculated.
(2) Draw-down means losses experienced by the Fund over a specified period.
(3) Worst peak-to-valley draw-down means the greatest cumulative percentage
decline in month-end net asset value due to losses sustained by the Fund
during any period in which the initial month-end net asset value for the
period is not equaled or exceeded by a subsequent month-end net asset value.
Worst peak-to-valley draw-down was calculated by comparing the initial
month-end net asset value to each subsequent month-end net asset value. Each
time the month-end net asset value exceeds all prior month-end net asset
values a new net trading "peak" is established. Where a subsequent month-end
net asset value does not equal or exceed the prior trading peak, the decline
is calculated as a percentage of the prior trading peak. The greatest of
such percentage declines during the period of time presented in the
performance table is the "worst peak-to-valley draw-down."
(4) Recovery Period means the period of time necessary for the Fund to recoup
all trading losses experienced by the Fund during the worst peak-to-valley
draw-down and achieve a new net trading "peak".

<PAGE>
1. Beginning Equity is the capital committed to trading as of the beginning of
the period.
2. Additions represents all capital additions made after the close of business
on the last day of the month. Additions are net of selling commissions and
organization and offering expenses.
3. Withdrawals represents all partial or complete withdrawals and redemptions
made after the close of business on the last day of the month. As of
December 31, 1998, IDS Managed Futures, LP has not made any distributions of
capital to its limited partners.
4. Gross Realized Profit (Loss) represents gross realized profit or loss on all
trades closed out during the period.
5. Brokerage Commissions represents the total amount of all brokerage
commissions and clearing fees paid on all trades liquidated during the
period or accrued on open positions at the end of the period.
6. Net Realized Profit (Loss) equals the sum of Gross Realized Profit (Loss)
minus Brokerage Commissions.
7. Changes in Unrealized Profit (Loss) represents the change in unrealized
profits or losses on the quoted market value of unliquidated positions at
the end of each period. A negative number signifies either a decrease in
unrealized profits or an increase in unrealized losses; a positive number
signifies either an increase in unrealized profits or a decrease in
unrealized losses.
8. Interest Income represents interest received and accrued during the month.
9. Management Fees represents a charge of 1/4 of 1% of the net asset value per
month for management services. The Management Fees are paid regardless of
performance. Incentive Fees represents a charge of 18% of the trading
profits as of the end of each quarter. If trading profits for a quarter are
negative it constitutes a carryforward loss for the beginning of the next
fiscal quarter. No Incentive Fees are payable until future trading profits
for the ensuing quarter exceed carryforward loss.
10. Other Expenses represents Operating Expenses other than Management Fees and
Incentive Fees.
11. Net Performance equals Net Realized Profit (Loss) plus change in Unrealized
Profit (Loss) plus Interest Income, minus Management Fees, Incentive Fees
and Other Expenses.
12. Ending Equity represents Beginning Equity plus Additions minus Withdrawls
plus or minus Net Performance.
13. Rate of Return is calculated by dividing Net Performance by Beginning
Equity, except for the first period where Net Performance is divided by
Additions.
14. The Value of a Unit Investment is calculated by dividing the Ending Equity
by the number of Units outstanding at the end of the month. At the end of
each month the amount shown in this column is equal to the net asset value
per unit at month end. The first amount shown in this column includes
reductions for selling commissions and organization and offering expenses as
well as an adjustment for trading results in that month.
15. This represents the number of units outstanding at the end of each month.
16. Gross Rate of Return is calculated by taking the difference in Net Asset
Value per unit for the year and dividing by the beginning of the year Net
Asset Value per unit.
17. Rate of Return Net of Interest Income is calculated in the same manner as
Gross Rate of Return, except the calculation is based on the Net Asset Value
per Unit Net of interest Income in a carry forward calculation, assuming the
fund earns no interest income.
18. Net Asset Value per Unit Net of Interest Income is calculated in the same
manner as this table, except it is assumed that the fund has no interest
income for the entire life of the fund in a carry forward calculation.
