    The Administrative Committee and Participants of
    Tandy Employees Supplemental Stock Program
    Fort Worth, Texas

                      Independent Auditors Report
                      ---------------------------

    I have audited the accompanying statement of financial
    condition of the Tandy Employees Supplemental Stock Program
    as of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related statement
    of income and changes in plan equity for the years ended
    December 31, 1994, 1993, and 1992.  These financial
    statements are the responsibility of the Program's
    management.  My responsibility is to express an opinion on
    these financial statements based on my audit.

    I conducted my audit in accordance with generally accepted
    auditing standards.  Those standards require that I plan and
    perform my audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
    the financial statements are free of material misstatement. 
    An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
    used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
    evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  I
    believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my
    opinion.

    In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above
    present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
    position of the Tandy Employees Supplemental Stock Program as
    of December 31, 1994 and 1993, and results of its operations
    for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992 in
    conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

    My audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on
    the basic financial statements taken as a whole.  The
    supplemental schedule of assets held for investment purposes
    is presented for purposes of complying with the Department of
    Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure
    under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and
    is not a required part of the basic financial statements. 
    The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing
    procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial
    statements and, in my opinion, is fairly stated in all
    material respects in relation to the basic financial
    statements taken as a whole.

    NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAM

    The following description of the Tandy Employees Supplemental
    Stock Program (the "Program") provides only general
    information.  Participants should refer to the Program
    Prospectus for a more complete description of the Program's
    provisions.

    General
    -------

    The purpose of the Program is to assist the employees of
    Tandy Corporation and its participating affiliates and
    associates (collectively called "Company") in building
    personal net worth and to encourage ownership in the Company
    by providing a Program for regular investment in the
    Company's common stock after an employee has reached a
    maximum salary deferral contribution limit under the Tandy
    Employees Deferred Salary and Investment Plan.

    The Program is subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement
    Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) relating to the
    protection of employee benefit rights, but is not subject to
    Title IV, relating to plan termination insurance coverage,
    and such insurance will not be extended to participant's in
    the Program in the future.

    Contributions
    -------------

    Through authorized payroll deduction a participant may
    contribute 5% of his or her gross salary after reaching a
    maximum salary deferral contribution limit under the Tandy
    Employees Deferred Salary and Investment Plan.

    The Company makes contributions to the Program equal to 80%
    of the participant's contribution.

    Cash dividends are added to the participant's account as
    Other contributions paid on the shares of common stock
    credited to a participant's account.  These Other
    contributions are not subject to matching contributions by
    the Company.

    The participant's contributions and the Company matching
    contribution are a part of the employee's current
    compensation, and, as such, are subject to all applicable
    federal, state, and local income, federal insurance
    contributions act and other taxes.  The cash dividends
    allocated to a participant's account are taxable to the
    participant for the calendar year allocated.

    The unrealized appreciation or depreciation of securities
    held for investment for financial statement reporting
    prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting
    principles differ from that for income tax reporting.

    Generally accepted accounting principles measure unrealized
    appreciation or depreciation as the difference between the
    securities' market value at the Program's year end and its
    historical cost.  The unrealized appreciation or depreciation
    for income tax reporting is the difference between the
    securities' market value at the plan year end and its current
    value at the beginning of the plan year.

    A participant's account is increased or decreased by the
    unrealized appreciation or depreciation recognized under
    generally accepted accounting principles.
