Part I

Item 1. Business

IDS Managed Futures II, L.P. (the "Partnership") is a limited
partnership organized on April 21, 1987 under the Delaware
Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act. The Partnership was
formed to speculatively trade commodity interests, including
futures contracts, forward contracts, physical commodities and
related options thereon pursuant to the trading instructions of
independent trading advisors. The General Partners of the
Partnership are CIS Investments, Inc. ("CISI") and IDS Futures
Corporation ("IDS Futures") (collectively, the "General
Partners"). The General Partners are registered commodity pool
operators under the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the "CE
Act"), and are responsible for administering the business and
affairs of the Partnership exclusive of trading decisions. CISI
is an affiliate of Cargill Investor Services, Inc. ("CIS"), the
clearing broker for the Partnership. IDS Futures is an affiliate
of American Express Financial Advisors Inc. ("AXP Advisors"),
formerly IDS Financial Services Inc., which acts as the
Partnership's introducing broker and selling agent. Effective
January 1, 1995, IDS Financial Corporation, the parent company of
IDS Financial Services Inc., changed its name to American Express
Financial Corporation and IDS Financial Services Inc. changed its
name to American Express Financial Advisors Inc. These were
solely name changes; the management and structure of each company
did not change.

CIS is a "Futures Commission Merchant," the General Partners are
"Commodity Pool Operators," IDS is an "Introducing Broker" and
the trading advisors to the Partnership are "Commodity Trading
Advisors" as those terms are used in the CE Act. As such, they
are registered with and subject to regulation by the Commodity
Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") and the National Futures
Association ("NFA"). AXP Advisors and CIS are also registered as
broker-dealers with the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. ("NASD") and the SEC.

Through March 3, 1989 trading decisions for the Partnership were
made by five independent commodity trading advisors, Commodity
Monitors, Inc., John W. Henry & Co., Inc., Mint Investment
Management Company, Neims-Stoken Partnership and Sabre Fund
Management Limited. Mint Investment Management Company no
longer traded assets of the Partnership after March 3, 1989 and
Neims-Stoken Partnership no longer traded assets of the
Partnership after October 13, 1989. In addition, Commodity
Monitors, Inc. ceased trading at the end of April 1991. Chang
Crowell Management Corporation began trading assets of the
Partnership in August 1991 and ceased trading on November 16,
1994. At December 31, 1995, John W. Henry & Co., Inc. and Sabre
Fund Management Limited made all trading decisions for the
Partnership.

Units of limited partnership interest ("Units") were offered by
AXP Advisors commencing July 14, 1987 through December 31, 1988.
The total amount of the offering was $40,000,000. There is no
definite number of Units authorized for the Partnership because
investors affiliated with the Selling Agent of the Partnership
were not required to pay selling commissions. As of December 31,
1988, 60,127.14 Units representing a total investment of
$14,983,249 had been sold and accepted into the Partnership
(excluding 627.95 Units purchased by the General Partners for
$150,110). A final group of investors purchasing Units worth
$423,750 between December 20, 1988 and December 31, 1988 were
admitted into the Partnership on January 31, 1989, at a Net Asset
Value of $255.27. The General Partners also purchased an
additional $3,960 of Units on January 31, 1989.

The offering was made pursuant to a Registration Statement on
Form S-1 and Prospectus declared effective with the Securities
and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on July 14, 1987 and supplements
thereto. The minimum subscription size was $5,000 for investors
not affiliated with AXP Advisors and $4,700 for affiliated
investors (affiliated investors did not have to pay selling
commissions of 6% of the investment amount). In the case of
Individual Retirement Accounts and Keogh Plans the minimum
subscription size was $1,000 in most jurisdictions and $940 for
affiliated investors. A selling commission of 6% was charged to
all non-affiliated investors. Through January 31, 1989 a total
of $897,126 was paid to AXP Advisors as selling commissions.
Upon completion of the offering period, the Partnership began to
reimburse the General Partners for organization and offering
costs advanced by them on behalf of the Partnership. The
organization and offering costs for the Partnership which were
originally estimated at $825,000 amounted to $642,710. During
1988 and 1989, $13,702 and $48,480, respectively, was reimbursed
to the General Partners by the Limited Partners redeeming prior
to the recovery of these expenses. In 1989 the Partnership had
additional organization and offering expenses of $18,619. The
balance of these expenses, which totaled $580,528, was reimbursed
from interest income earned on the net assets of the Partnership
on deposit with the clearing broker.

The General Partners each contributed $77,035 (a total of
$154,070) in cash to the capital of the Partnership, which was
approximately 1.05% of the total contributions to the Partnership
(less selling commissions) by all Partners. The General Partners
received in exchange for such contribution 644.4502 Units of
Partnership interest (322.2251 Units each).

Under the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement, the General
Partners may not select Partnership transactions involving the
purchase or sale of any commodity interests, but must select one
or more trading advisors to direct the Partnership's trading with
respect thereto. Initially, the General Partners chose and
caused the Partnership to enter into an Advisory Contract with
each of Commodity Monitors, Inc., John W. Henry and Co., Inc.,
Mint Investment Management Company, Neims-Stoken Partnership and
Sabre Fund Management Limited (the "Advisors"). Commencing on
March 1, 1988, after the conclusion of the initial offering
period with respect to the Partnership's Limited Partnership
Units, the Advisors began to provide commodity trading
instructions to CIS on behalf of the Partnership. Mint
Investment Management Company gave notice to the Fund that they
were withdrawing as an Advisor due to a restructuring of their
business. After February 28, 1989 Mint Investment Management
Company no longer traded assets of the Partnership. Further,
Neims-Stoken Partnership was closed out on October 13, 1989 due
to poor trading performance. The assets remaining from both Mint
and Neims-Stoken were allocated among the remaining Advisors.
The assets formerly managed by John W. Henry & Co., Inc. ("JWH")
pursuant to its Original Trading Method were allocated to another
program operated by JWH, the KT Financial and Metals Portfolio as
of February 1989. Further, Commodity Monitors, Inc. ceased
trading assets of the Partnership due to poor trading performance
in April 1991 and Chang Crowell Management Corporation ("Chang
Crowell") began trading assets in August 1991. As of November
16, 1994 Chang Crowell was terminated as an Advisor to the
Partnership and on December 12, 1994 the assets formerly managed
by Chang Crowell were allocated to Sabre Fund Management Limited
("Sabre").

The General Partners are responsible for the preparation of
monthly and annual reports to the Limited Partners; filing
reports required by the CFTC, the NFA, the SEC and any other
Federal or State agencies having jurisdiction over the
Partnership's operations; calculation of the Net Asset Value
(meaning the total assets less total liabilities of the
Partnership (for a more precise definition, see the Exhibit "the
Registration Statement on Form S-1" hereto)) and directing
payment of the management and incentive fees payable to the
Advisors under the Advisory Contracts. The General Partners
provide suitable facilities and procedures for handling
redemptions, transfers, distributions of profits (if any) and
orderly liquidation of the Partnership. Although CIS, an
affiliate of CISI (one of the General Partners) acts as the
Partnership's clearing broker, the General Partners are
responsible for selecting another clearing broker in the event
CIS is unable or unwilling to continue in that capacity. The
General Partners are further authorized, on behalf of the
Partnership (i) to enter into the brokerage clearing agreement
and related customer agreements with their affiliates, CIS and
AXP Advisors, pursuant to which those firms render clearing and
introducing brokerage services to the Partnership; (ii) to cause
the Partnership to pay brokerage commissions at the rates
provided for in the brokerage agreement ($58.75 per round turn
trade to CIS which in turn reallocates $37.25 per round turn
trade to AXP Advisors) and NFA, exchange, clearing, delivery,
insurance, storage, service and other fees and charges incidental
to the Partnership's trading. The Partnership shall not pay
brokerage commissions to CIS and AXP Advisors at rates higher
than those established in the Prospectus for a period of 60
months from the date the Partnership commences trading except for
trades placed at certain foreign exchanges for which the
Partnership is charged a surcharge equal to the increased
incremental cost to CIS; thereafter, such brokerage commissions
may be increased at rates equivalent to increases in the Consumer
Price Index or other comparable measure of inflation.

The original Advisory Contract between the Partnership and each
of the Advisors provides that the Advisors shall each have sole
discretion in and responsibility for the selection of the
Partnership's commodity transactions with respect to the portion
of the Partnership's assets allocated to it. The initial
Advisory Contracts terminated on March 31, 1989 and were extended
with each Advisor on the same terms for three additional one year
terms. An Amendment to the IDS Managed Futures II, L.P. Advisory
Contract was signed on March 31, 1992 for Sabre and JWH,
extending each of their terms for one year with the ability to
extend for three additional one year periods thereafter.

An additional Advisory Contract among the Partnership, the
General Partners and Chang Crowell became effective August 9,
1991. This contract was for one year with a provision to extend
the Advisory Contract for two additional one year terms. The
Advisory Contract with Chang Crowell was not renewed in August
1994 and Chang Crowell was terminated as an Advisor to the
Partnership on November 16, 1994.

The Advisory Contracts shall terminate automatically with respect
to each Advisor in the event that the Partnership is terminated
in accordance with the Limited Partnership Agreement. The
Advisory Contracts may be terminated by the Partnership with
respect to any Advisor individually upon written notice to the
Advisor in the event that (i) the Partnership assets allocated to
the Advisor has trading losses in excess of 30% of the assets
originally allocated to the Advisor; (ii) the Advisor is unable,
to any material extent, to use its agreed upon Trading Approach;
(iii) the Advisor's registration is revoked or not renewed; (iv)
there is unauthorized assignment of the Advisory Contract by the
Advisor; (v) the Advisor dissolves, merges, consolidates with
another entity, sells a substantial portion of its assets,
changes control, becomes bankrupt or insolvent or has a change in
executive officer; or (vi) the General Partners determine in good
faith that such termination is necessary for the protection of
the Partnership.

An Advisor may terminate the Advisory Contract at any time upon
written notice to the Partnership in the event that (i) its
continued trading on behalf of the Partnership would require the
Advisor to become registered as an investment advisor under the
Investment Advisors Act of 1940; (ii) assets in excess of 50% of
the initially allocated assets are reallocated from the Advisor;
(iii) the registration of either General Partner is revoked,
suspended, terminated or not renewed; (iv) the General Partners
elect to have the Advisor use a trading approach which is
different from that initially used; (v) the General Partners
override a trading instruction or impose additional trading
limitations; (vi) there is an unauthorized assignment of the
Advisory Contract by the General Partners; or (vii) other good
cause is shown to which the written consent of the General
Partners is also obtained. An Advisor may also terminate the
Advisory Contract on 60 days written notice to the General
Partners during any renewal term.

The Advisors will continue to advise other futures trading
accounts. The Advisors and their officers, directors and
employees also will be free to trade commodity interests for
their own accounts provided such trading is consistent with the
Advisors' obligations and responsibilities to the Partnership.
To the extent that the Advisors recommend similar or identical
trades to the Partnership and other accounts which they manage,
the Partnership may compete with those accounts for the execution
of the same or similar trades.

The Partnership paid JWH and Chang Crowell a monthly management
fee of 1/3 of 1% of the Partnership's Net Asset Value ("NAV")
under management as of the end of the month. Effective November
6, 1994 Chang Crowell ceased making trading decisions for the
Partnership. Initially the Partnership paid Sabre a monthly
management fee of 1/3 of 1% of the month-end net assets under
management. Effective December 1, 1991, the Advisory Contract
with Sabre was changed to reduce management fees paid to them to
1/6 of 1% of month-end net assets until such time as the assets
allocated to Sabre showed a profit of 25%. The Partnership
raised Sabre's management fee to 1/3 of 1% on September 1, 1993
because the 25% profit was achieved. Further effective January
1, 1996, Sabre's monthly management fee was again reduced from
1/3 of 1% to 1/6 of 1% of the Partnership's Net Asset Value
subject to Sabre's management at month end. This reduction in
management fees will continue until such time that the cumulative
trading performance of Sabre reaches a certain level specified by
the General Partners and agreed upon by Sabre. The Partnership
pays each Advisor a quarterly incentive fee of 15% of trading
profits achieved on the NAV of the Partnership allocated by the
General Partners to such Advisor's management. The calculation
and payment of such incentive fees shall not be affected by the
performance of any other Advisor. See pages 6-8 of Exhibit 10.1
hereto for a description of Net Asset Value and trading profits.

The incentive fee is paid to an Advisor only when the cumulative
trading profits for assets allocated to that Advisor at the end
of a quarter exceed the highest previous cumulative trading
profits at the end of a quarter for which an incentive fee was
paid to that Advisor.

Effective March 17, 1995, Sabre Limited, the holding company of
Sabre, changed its share ownership and management structure. On
this date Henderson Administration Group plc and Phoenix
Securities Limited both ceased to be ordinary shareholders in
Sabre Limited. In addition, Mr. Michael J. Grimme purchased a
29.25% share ownership in Sabre Limited. Following these
transactions, the holders of ordinary voting shares in Sabre
Limited are as follows: Robin W. Edwards, 41.5%; Peter G. Swete,
29.25%; and Michael J. Grimme, 29.25%. Also on March 17, 1995,
Michael J. Grimme was appointed to the Board of Directors of
Sabre Limited and became the Managing Director of Sabre.
Effective November 30, 1995, Michael J. Grimme became a
Non-Executive Director of Sabre.

Effective July 7, 1995, Bruce I. Nemirow resigned from his
positions with JWH and effective October 27, 1995 Thomas C.
Bozarth is no longer a principal of JWH. In the year ending
December 31, 1995, the following persons have been added as
principals of JWH: David R. Bailin, Executive Vice President;
Barry S. Fox, Director of Research and Development; David M.
Kozak, Vice President; Christopher E. Deakins, Vice President;
and Nancy O. Fox, Vice President. In addition, Mary Beth Hardy
was promoted to Senior Vice President of JWH.

The Limited Partnership Agreement provides that (i) funds will be
invested only in futures contracts which are traded in sufficient
volume to permit, in the opinion of each Advisor, ease of taking
and liquidating positions; (ii) no Advisor will establish futures
positions in a commodity interest such that the margin required
for those positions, when added to that required for existing
positions for the same commodity interest, would exceed 15% of
the Partnership assets allocated to that Advisor; (iii) it is
expected that 20% to 60% of the Net Assets of the Partnership
will normally be committed to initial margin, however, no Advisor
may commit more that 66 2/3% of the assets under its management
to initial margins; (iv) the Partnership will not generally
enter into an open position for a particular commodity interest
during a delivery month; (v) the Partnership may not trade in
securities or options on securities, commodity futures contracts,
or physical commodities unless such options have been approved
for trading on a designated contract market by the CFTC; the
Partnership may trade in foreign options if permitted under the
CE Act and CFTC regulations; the Partnership may trade in
futures contracts, futures contracts on foreign currencies
through foreign and domestic commodity exchanges and forward
contracts on foreign currencies; (vi) the Partnership may not
engage in pyramiding, but may employ spreads or straddles; (vii)
the Partnership's assets will not be commingled with the assets
of any other person; (viii) no Advisor will be permitted to
engage in churning the assets of the Partnership; and (ix) no
rebates or no give-ups may be paid to or received by the General
Partners. The Partnership will not generally utilize borrowing
except for short-term borrowing when the Partnership takes
delivery of a physical commodity. Material changes in these
trading policies must be approved by a vote of a majority of the
outstanding Limited Partnership Units.

The Partnership's net assets were deposited in the Partnership's
account with CIS, the Partnership's clearing broker. CIS credits
the Partnership at month end with interest income on 100% of the
Partnership's average monthly cash balance at a rate equal to 80%
of the average 90-day Treasury Bill rate for Treasury Bills
issued during the month. The organization and offering expenses
for the Partnership were advanced by the General Partners. The
General Partners began being reimbursed for these expenses in
March 1989 with payments at the end of each month from interest
income credited to the Partnership by CIS.

The Partnership currently has no salaried employees and all
administrative services performed for the Partnership are
performed by the General Partners. The General Partners have no
employees other than their officers and directors, all of whom
are employees of the affiliated companies of the General
Partners.

The Partnership's business constitutes only one segment for
financial reporting purposes; it is a limited partnership whose
purpose is to trade, buy, sell, spread or otherwise acquire, hold
or dispose of commodity interests including futures contracts,
forward contracts, physical commodities and related options
thereon. The Partnership does not engage in the production or
sale of any goods or services. The objective of the Partnership
business is appreciation of its assets through speculative
trading in such commodity interests. Financial information about
the Partnership's business as of December 31, 1995 is set forth
under Items 6 and 7 herein.

For a description of commodity trading and its regulation, see
the Registration Statement on Form S-1 included in the exhibits
hereto.

Competition

Each Advisor and its principals, affiliates and employees are
free to trade for their own accounts and to manage other
commodity accounts during the term of the Advisory Contract and
to use the same information and trading strategy which the
Advisor obtains, produces or utilizes in the performance of
services for the Partnership. To the extent that the Advisor
recommends similar or identical trades to the Partnership and
other accounts which it manages, the Partnership may compete with
those accounts for the execution of the same or similar trades.

In addition, other trading advisors who are not affiliated with
the Partnership may utilize trading methods which are similar in
some respects to those methods used by the Partnership's
Advisors. These other advisors could also be competing with the
Partnership for the same or similar trades as requested by the
Partnership's Advisors.

Item 2. Properties

The Partnership does not utilize any physical properties in the
conduct of its business. The General Partners use the offices of
CIS and AXP Advisors, at no additional charge to the Partnership,
to perform their administration functions and the Partnership
uses the offices of CIS, at no additional charge to the
Partnership, as its principal administrative offices.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

None.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

Part II

Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Units and Related Security
Holder Matters

(a) There is no established public market for
the Units and none is expected to develop.

(b) As of December 31, 1995, there were
21,884.34 Units held by Limited Partners and
644.45 Units held by the General Partners. A
total of 2,099.07 Units had been redeemed by
Limited Partners during the period from
January 1, 1995 to December 31, 1995 and
37,808.01 prior to 1995. The Partnership's
Limited Partnership Agreement (Exhibit 3.1
hereto) contains a full description of
purchase, redemptions and distribution
procedures.

The Limited Partnership Agreement does not provide for regular or
periodic cash distributions, but gives the General Partners sole
discretion in determining what distributions, if any, the
Partnership will make to its partners. The General Partners have
not declared any such distributions to date and do not currently
intend to declare such distributions.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Most United States commodity exchanges limit the amount of
fluctuation in commodity futures contract prices during a single
trading day by regulations. These regulations specify what are
referred to as "daily price fluctuation limits" or "daily
limits". The daily limits establish the maximum amount the price
of a futures contract may vary either up or down from the
previous day's settlement price at the end of a trading session.
Once the daily limit has been reached in a particular commodity,
no trades may be made at a price beyond the limit. Positions in
the commodity could then be taken or liquidated only if traders
are willing to effect trades at or within the limit during the
period for trading on such day. Because the "daily limit" rule
only governs price movement for a particular trading day, it does
not limit losses. In the past, futures prices have moved the
daily limit for numerous consecutive trading days and thereby
prevented prompt liquidation of futures positions on one side of
the market, subjecting commodity futures traders holding such
positions to substantial losses for those days.

It is also possible for an exchange or the CFTC to suspend
trading in a particular contract, order immediate settlement of a
particular contract, or direct that trading in a particular
contract be for liquidation only.

The Partnership's net assets are deposited in cash with CIS and
as long as CIS acts as the Partnership's clearing broker, the
Partnership will earn interest on 100% of the Partnership's
average monthly cash balance at a rate equal to 80% of the
average yield on the 90-day U.S. Treasury Bills issued during
that month. For the calendar year ended December 31, 1995 CIS
had paid or accrued to pay interest of $470,866 to the
Partnership. Similarly, for the calendar year ended December 31,
1994, CIS had paid or accrued to pay interest of $365,050 to the
Partnership.

The General Partners each contributed a total of $77,035 for
which they each received 322.2251 Units of Partnership interest.
The purchase of Units was set forth in the Prospectus to meet the
1% minimum investment by the General Partners. The total amount
subscribed was contributed to the capital of the Partnership.

The Limited Partners contributed a total of $15,406,999 for which
they received 61,791.42 Units of Partnership interest.

For the year ended December 31, 1995, investors redeemed a total
of 2,099.07 Units for $951,690. In 1994 investors redeemed a
total of 1,944.80 Units for $812,167.

On December 31, 1995, the Partnership had unrealized profits of
$565,658 and cash on deposit at CIS of $10,585,211. These
positions required margin deposits at CIS of $1,204,662. The
total balance of the Partnership's account was $11,150,869.
These figures compare to unrealized profits of $546,622, cash on
deposit of $8,850,144, margin requirement of $1,375,181 and total
balance of the Partnership's account of $9,396,766 as of December
31, 1994. On December 31, 1993, the Partnership had unrealized
profits of $535,120 and cash on deposit of $11,322,539. These
positions required margin requirements at CIS of $911,000. The
total balance of the Partnership's account was $11,857,659.

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1995, the Partnership
had no credit exposure to a counterparty which is a foreign
commodities exchange which was material.

The Partnership currently only trades on recognized global
futures exchanges. In the event the Partnership begins trading
over the counter contracts, any credit exposure to a counterparty
which exceeds 10% of the Partnership's total assets will be
disclosed.

See Footnote 5 of the Financial Statements for procedures
established by the General Partners to monitor and minimize
market and credit risks for the Partnership. In addition to the
procedures set out in Footnote 5, the General Partners review on
a daily basis reports of the Partnership's performance, including
monitoring of the daily net asset value of the Partnership. The
General Partners also review the financial situation of the
Partnership's Clearing Broker on a monthly basis. The General
Partners rely on the policies of the Clearing Broker to monitor
specific market risks. The Clearing Broker does not engage in
proprietary trading and thus has no direct market exposure which
provides the General Partners assurance that the Partnership will
not suffer trading losses through the Clearing Broker.

Results of Operations

The Partnership posted positive returns for 1995 and 1993 but
suffered losses for its Limited Partners in 1994.

Trading for 1993 was very profitable. The net return for this
period was 37%. These results were achieved primarily through
trading of world financial markets, capitalizing on strong trends
in global bonds and stock indices. Long positions in European,
United States and Pacific Rim bond markets were generally very
profitable as global economic sluggishness continued to plague
many of the world industrialized nations. Currency markets for
the most part stayed within narrow trading ranges for this
period. The one exception to this was the major movement of the
Japanese Yen. Grains had a brief flurry of activity during the
summer as severe flooding hampered crop development in the
Midwest coupled with drought conditions in the Southeastern
United States. As a result of this trading the Partnership
realized a gain for the year of $3,311,949.

The year 1994 was a challenging year for the Partnership, which
posted a loss of 14%. Economic and political instability
worldwide created disruptions in the financial markets. The U.S.
Administration was under fire, there was major trade tension
between the U.S. and Japan, instability in Russia, an
assassination in Mexico and conflict in Korea, all resulting in a
sharp decline in global stock and bond prices. The Yen/U.S.
Dollar relationship fluctuated sharply due to the concerns of
trade barriers or a potential trade war with Japan. The U.S.
Dollar declined relative to the European currencies and even
reached the lowest post World War II levels versus the Japanese
Yen. Physical commodities offered a few opportunities. Coffee
had a major rally after a severe freeze devastated the growing
area in Brazil, sugar prices rose to a three year high in October
and there were modest gains in precious metals. The Partnership
ended the year with a loss of $1,544,029.

In 1995 the Advisors were well-positioned to capitalize on many
trading opportunities, especially in the financial sector, which
produced a net gain of 29.8% for the year. The first quarter of
the year was the most profitable for the Partnership. The
February collapse of Barings PLC created opportunities,
especially in the Far Eastern markets. The Barings demise had a
global effect, sending stock prices falling around the world and
driving investors toward the safety of German marks and U.S.
Treasury bonds. The German mark benefited substantially from the
uncertain state of many world economies and gained steadily
versus the U.S. and other European currencies. Long positions in
foreign exchange generated sizable gains, with positions in the
Japanese yen, yen bond and the Nikkei 225 being the most
favorable. The balance of the year was much quieter in terms of
market opportunities, trends and profits. The Partnership ended
the year with a profit of $2,690,340.

To enhance the foregoing comparison of results of operations from
year to year one can examine, line to line, the Statements of
Financial Condition and Operations. Due to trends in the
marketplace in 1995 that were not evident in 1994, the
Partnership's "Realized gain (loss) on closed positions" was
greater than 1994.

Interest rates were higher in 1995 than in 1994 and the profits
earned by the Partnership caused a larger cash balance, so
interest income and interest receivable at the end of 1995 were
significantly greater than in 1994.

Because of the significant gains recorded during 1995, incentive
fees were significantly greater than in 1994. Also, because of
the gains throughout 1995, incentive fees at the end of the year
were much less in 1994 than in 1995.

Because the U.S. dollar lost value versus the various other
currencies traded by the Partnership during the year, the
Partnership recorded a foreign currency gain in 1994, but since
the move was not as great in 1995 as 1994, the total gain
recorded was less in 1995.

Due to the profits enjoyed by the Partnership as mentioned above,
it was required to accrue for the Illinois Personal Property
Replacement Tax at the end of the year. This caused Operating
Expenses and Accrued Operating Expenses for 1995 to be greater
than 1994.

Inflation

Inflation does have an effect on commodity prices and the
volatility of commodity markets; however, continued inflation is
not expected to have an adverse effect on the Partnership's
operations or assets.

Independent Auditors' Report

The Partners
IDS Managed Futures II, L.P.:

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of
IDS Managed Futures II, L.P. (the Partnership) as of December 31, 1995
and 1994, and the related statements of operations, partners' capital,
and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended
December 31, 1995. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Partnership'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 financial position of IDS Managed
Futures II, L.P. as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of
its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-
year period ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

IDS Managed Futures II, L.P.
Notes to Financial Statements

(1) General Information and Summary

IDS Managed Futures II, L.P. (the Partnership), a limited partnership
organized in April 1987 under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act, was formed to engage in the speculative trading of
commodity interests including futures contracts, forward contracts,
physical commodities, and related options thereon pursuant to the
trading instructions of independent trading advisors. The General
Partners are IDS Futures Corporation and CIS Investments, Inc. The
clearing broker is Cargill Investor Services, Inc. (Clearing Broker or
CIS), the parent company of CIS Investments, Inc.

Units of limited partnership interest were offered by IDS Financial
Services Inc. (IDS) (an affiliate of IDSFC) commencing July 14, 1987
through December 31, 1988. The total amount of the offering was
$40,000,000. There is no definite number of units authorized of the
Partnership because investors affiliated with the Selling Agent of the
Partnership were not required to pay selling commissions. As of
December 31, 1988, 60,127.14 units of partnership interest,
representing a total investment of $14,983,249, had been sold and
accepted into the Partnership (excluding 627.95 units purchased by the
General Partners for $150,110) and prior to redemptions. A final
group of investors purchasing units worth $423,750 between
December 20, 1988 and December 31, 1988 were admitted into the
Partnership on January 31, 1989 at a net asset value of $255.27. The
General Partners also purchased an additional $3,960 of units on
January 31, 1989.

No redemptions are permitted by a subscriber during the first six
months after he or she has been admitted to the Partnership.
Thereafter, a Limited Partner may cause any or all of his or her units
to be redeemed by the Partnership effective as of the last trading day
of any month of the Partnership based on the Net Asset Value per unit
on ten days written notice to the General Partners. Payment will be
made within ten business days of the effective date of the redemption.
The Partnership s Limited Partnership Agreement contains a full
description of redemption and distribution procedures.

The Partnership shall be terminated on December 31, 2007 if none of
the following occur prior to that date: (1) investors holding more
than 50% of the outstanding units notify the General Partners to
dissolve the Partnership as of a specific date; (2) disassociation of
the General Partners with the Partnership; (3) bankruptcy of the
Partnership; (4) decrease in the net asset value to less than
$1,500,000; (5) the Partnership is declared unlawful, or (6) the net
asset value per unit declines to less than $125 per unit and the
partners elect to terminate the Partnership.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accounting and reporting policies of the Partnership conform to
generally accepted accounting principles and to general practices
within the commodities industry. The following is a description of
the more significant of those policies which the Partnership follows
in preparing its financial statements.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 39 Reporting

Reporting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board
Interpretation No. 39 ( FIN 39 ) is not applicable to the Partnership
and the provisions of FIN 39 do not have any effect on the
Partnership s financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

Commodity futures contracts, forward contracts, physical commodities,
and related options are recorded on the trade date. All such
transactions are reported on an identified cost basis. Realized gains
and losses are determined by comparing the purchase price to the sales
price when the trades are offset. Unrealized gains and losses
reflected in the statements of financial condition represent the
difference between original contract amount and market value (as
determined by exchange settlement prices for futures contracts and
related options and cash dealer prices at a predetermined time for
forward contracts, physical commodities, and their related options) as
of the last business day of the year or as of the last date of the
financial statements.

The Partnership earns interest on 100% of the Partnership's average
monthly cash balance on deposit with the Clearing Broker at a rate
equal to 80% of the average 90-day treasury bill rate for U.S.
Treasury bills issued during that month.

Commissions

Brokerage commissions and National Futures Association (NFA) clearing
and exchange fees are accrued on a round-turn basis on open commodity
futures contracts. The Partnership pays CIS commissions on trades
executed on its behalf at a rate of $58.75 per round-turn contract.
The Partnership pays this commission directly to CIS and CIS then
reallocates the appropriate portion to American Express Financial
Advisors Inc. (AXP Advisors) (effective January 1, 1995 IDS Financial
Services Inc. changed its name to American Express Financial Advisors
Inc.). Effective August 8, 1991 the commission rate for Chang-Crowell
Management Corporation was reduced to $35.00 per round-turn contract.

Foreign Currency Transactions

Trading accounts in foreign currency denominations are susceptible to
both movements in underlying contract markets as well as fluctuations
in currency rates. Translation of foreign currencies into U.S.
dollars for closed positions are translated at an average exchange
rate for the year while year-end balances are translated at the year-
end currency rates. The impact of the translation is reflected in the
statements of operations.

Statements of Cash Flows

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, cash represents cash and
cash on deposit with the Clearing Broker in commodity futures trading
accounts.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increase
and decrease in net assets from operations during the period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

(3) Fees

Management fees are accrued and paid monthly and incentive fees are
accrued monthly and paid quarterly. Trading decisions for the periods
of these financial statements were made by the following Commodity
Trading Advisors (CTAs): Chang-Crowell Management Corporation, John W.
Henry & Company, Inc., and Sabre Fund Management Limited. Effective
November 6, 1994, Chang-Crowell Management Corporation ceased making
trading decisions for the Partnership. Under agreements signed with
the CTAs, the CTAs will receive a monthly management fee of 1/3 of 1%
of the month-end net asset value of the Partnership under their
management and 15% of the Partnership's new trading profits
attributable to each manager's trading, if any, in each quarter.
Effective December 1, 1991 to September 1, 1993 the agreement with
Sabre was changed to reduce management fees paid to them to 1/6th of
1% of the month-end net assets.

(4) Income Taxes

No provision for Federal income taxes has been made in the
accompanying financial statements as each partner is responsible for
reporting income (loss) based on the pro rata share of the profits or
losses of the Partnership. The Partnership is responsible for the
Illinois State Partnership Information and Replacement Tax based on
the operating results of the Partnership. Such tax amounted to
$57,567 and $40,779 for the years ended December 31, 1993 and 1995,
respectively, and is included in operating expenses in the statements
of operations. No such tax was incurred for the year ended
December 31, 1994 as the Partnership sustained net losses.

(5) Financial Instruments with Off-balance Sheet Risk

The Partnership was formed to speculatively trade commodity interests.
The Partnership's commodity interest transactions and related cash
balances are on deposit with the Clearing Broker at all times. In the
event that volatility of trading of other customers of the Clearing
Broker impaired the ability of the Clearing Broker to satisfy its
obligations to the Partnership, the Partnership would be exposed to
off-balance sheet risk. Such risk is defined in Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 105 (SFAS 105) as a credit risk.
To mitigate this risk, the Clearing Broker, pursuant to the mandates
of the Commodity Exchange Act, is required to maintain funds deposited
by customers, relating to futures contracts in regulated commodities,
in separate bank accounts which are designated as segregated
customers' accounts. In addition, the Clearing Broker has set aside
funds deposited by customers relating to foreign futures and options
in separate bank accounts which are designated as customer secured
accounts. Lastly, the Clearing Broker is subject to the Securities
and Exchange Commission's Uniform Net Capital Rule which requires the
maintenance of minimum net capital at least equal to 4% of the funds
required to be segregated pursuant to the Commodity Exchange Act. The
Clearing Broker has controls in place to make certain that all
customers maintain adequate margin deposits for the positions which
they maintain at the Clearing Broker. Such procedures should protect
the Partnership from the off-balance sheet risk as mentioned earlier.
The Clearing Broker does not engage in proprietary trading and thus
has no direct market exposure.

The contractual amounts of commitments to purchase and sell exchange
traded futures contracts was $116,572,731 and $53,157,421
respectively, on December 31, 1995, and $148,431,621 and $155,154,290,
respectively, on December 31, 1994. The contractual amounts of these
instruments reflect the extent of the Partnership's involvement in the
related futures contracts and do not reflect the risk of loss due to
counterparty nonperformance. Such risk is defined by SFAS 105 as
credit risk. The counterparty of the Partnership for futures
contracts traded in the United States and most non-U.S. exchanges on
which the fund trades is the Clearing House associated with the
exchange. In general, Clearing Houses are backed by the membership
and will act in the event of nonperformance by one of its members or
one of the members' customers and as such should significantly reduce
this credit risk. In the cases where the Partnership trades on
exchanges on which the Clearing House is not backed by the membership,
the sole recourse of the Partnership for nonperformance will be the
Clearing House.

The average fair value of commodity interests was $521,023 and
$570,000 during 1995 and 1994, respectively. Fair value as of
December 31, 1995 and 1994 was $565,658 and 546,622. The net gains or
losses arising from the trading of commodity interests are presented
in the statement of operations.

The Partnership holds futures and futures options positions on the
various exchanges throughout the world. The Partnership does not
trade over the counter contracts. As defined by SFAS 105, futures
positions are classified as financial instruments. SFAS 105 requires
that the Partnership disclose the market risk of loss from all of its
financial instruments. Market risk is defined as the possibility that
future changes in market prices may make a financial instrument less
valuable or more onerous. If the markets should move against all of
the futures positions held by the Partnership at the same time, and if
the markets moved such that the CTAs were unable to offset the futures
positions of the Partnership, the Partnership could lose all of its
assets and the partners would realize a 100% loss. The Partnership
has contracts with two CTAs who make the trading decisions. One of
the CTAs trade programs which are diversified among all commodity
groups, while the other is diversified among the various futures
contracts in the financial and metals group. Both traders trade on
U.S. and non-U.S. exchanges. Such diversification should greatly
reduce this market risk.

At December 31, 1995, the cash requirement of the commodity interests
of the Partnership was $1,204,662. This cash requirement is met by
$9,838,858 held in segregated funds and $1,312,011 held in secured
funds. At December 31, 1994, the cash requirement of the commodity
interests of the Partnership of $1,375,181 was met by $8,050,759 being
held in segregated funds and $1,346,007 being held in secured funds.
At December 31, 1995 and 1994, cash was on deposit with the Clearing
Broker which exceeded the cash requirement amount.

The following chart discloses the dollar amount of the unrealized gain
or loss on open contracts related to exchange traded contracts for the
Partnership at December 31, 1995 and 1994:

Commodity Group 1995 1994

Agricultural $47,367 $101,842
Currency 29,475 (104,550)

Energies 79,46 46,506
Metals (2,296) 103,423
Interest 334,946 439,401

Total $565,658 $546,622

The range of maturity dates of these exchange traded open contracts is
January 1996 to December 1996.
