                      IDS/JONES GROWTH PARTNERS II, L.P.
                            (A Limited Partnership)

             NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1)  This  Form 10-Q is being filed in conformity with the SEC requirements  for
unaudited  financial  statements  and  does  not  contain  all of the  necessary
footnote disclosures required for a complete  presentation of the Balance Sheets
and  Statements  of  Operations  and Cash  Flows in  conformity  with  generally
accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of management, this data
includes  all  adjustments,   consisting  only  of  normal  recurring  accruals,
necessary to present fairly the financial  position of IDS/Jones Growth Partners
II, L.P.  (the  "Partnership")  at June 30, 1999 and  December  31, 1998 and its
Statements of Operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999
and 1998 and its  Statements  of Cash Flows for the six month periods ended June
30, 1999 and 1998.

     The   accompanying   financial  statements   include  100   percent  of the
accounts of the Partnership  and those of IDS/Jones Joint Venture  Partners (the
"Venture"),  which owned the cable television  system serving the communities of
Aurora, North Aurora, Montgomery, Plano, Oswego, Sandwich, Yorkville and certain
unincorporated areas of Kendall and Kane Counties,  all in the State of Illinois
(the "Aurora  System"),  reduced by the 34.4 percent  minority  interests in the
Venture. All interpartnership accounts and transactions have been eliminated. As
discussed  below,  the Venture sold the Aurora System on December 4, 1998. Jones
Cable Corporation, a Colorado corporation, is the "Managing General Partner."

     On April 7, 1999, Comcast Corporation ("Comcast") completed the acquisition
of a controlling interest in Jones Intercable, Inc. ("Intercable"). As of April
7, 1999, Comcast owned approximately 12.8 million shares of Intercable's Class A
Common Stock and approximately 2.9 million shares of Intercable's Common Stock,
representing approximately 37% of the economic interest and 47% of the voting
interest in Intercable. Also on that date, Comcast contributed its shares in
Intercable to Comcast's wholly owned subsidiary, Comcast Cable Communications,
Inc. ("Comcast Cable"). The approximately 2.9 million shares of Common Stock of
Intercable owned by Comcast represents approximately 57% of the outstanding
Common Stock, which class of stock is entitled to elect 75% of the Board of
Directors of Intercable. As a result of this transaction, Intercable is now a
consolidated public company subsidiary of Comcast Cable.

     Also on April 7, 1999, the bylaws of Intercable were amended to establish
the size of Intercable's Board of Directors as a range from eight to thirteen
directors and the board was reconstituted so as to have eight directors and the
following directors of Intercable resigned: Robert E. Cole, Josef J. Fridman,
James J. Krejci, James B. O'Brien, Raphael M. Solot, Robert Kearney, Howard O.
Thrall, Siim Vanaselja, Sanford Zisman and Glenn R. Jones. In addition, Donald
L. Jacobs resigned as a director elected by the holders of Class A Common Stock
and was elected by the remaining directors as a director elected by the holders
of Common Stock. The remaining directors elected the following persons to fill
the vacancies on the board created by such resignations: Ralph J. Roberts, Brian
L. Roberts, John R. Alchin, Stanley Wang and Lawrence S. Smith. All of the newly
elected directors, with the exception of Mr. Jacobs, are officers of Comcast.
Also on April 7, 1999, the following executive officers of Intercable resigned:
Glenn R. Jones, James B. O'Brien, Ruth E. Warren, Kevin P. Coyle, Cynthia A.
Winning, Elizabeth M. Steele, Wayne H. Davis and Larry W. Kaschinske. The
following persons were appointed as executive officers of Intercable on April 7,
1999: Ralph J. Roberts, Brian L. Roberts, Lawrence S. Smith, John R. Alchin and
Stanley Wang.

     Comcast is principally engaged in the development, management and operation
of broadband cable networks and in the provision of content through programming
investments. Comcast Cable is principally engaged in the development, management
and operation of broadband cable networks. The address of Comcast's principal
office is 1500 Market Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19102-2148, which is
also now the address of the principal office of Intercable and of the Managing
General Partner. The address of Comcast Cable's principal office is 1201 Market
Street, Suite 2201, Wilmington, Delaware 19801.

(2)  On December 4, 1998, the Venture sold the Aurora System, its only operating
asset, to an unaffiliated  party for a sales price of $108,500,000.  The Venture
repaid all of its indebtedness,  settled working capital adjustments,  deposited
$3,283,500 into an interest-bearing indemnity escrow account and distributed the
remaining  net  sales  proceeds  of  $51,374,610  to  its  four  partners.   The
Partnership   received   $33,678,970,   or  65.6  percent,  of  the  $51,374,610
distribution.  The  Partnership in turn  distributed  these funds to its limited
partners.

     The  $3,283,500  of  the  sale  proceeds  placed  in  the  interest-bearing
indemnity  escrow  account  will  remain in escrow  until  November  15, 1999 as
security for the  Venture's  agreement  to  indemnify  the buyer under the asset
purchase agreement.  The Venture's primary exposure,  if any, will relate to the
representations  and  warranties  made  about  the  Aurora  System  in the asset
purchase agreement.  Any amounts remaining from this interest-bearing  indemnity
escrow  account  and not  claimed by the buyer at the end of the escrow  period,
plus interest  earned on escrowed funds,  will be returned to the Venture.  From
this  amount,  the Venture will pay its  remaining  liabilities,  which  totaled
$1,906,550 at June 30, 1999, and then the Venture will  distribute the remaining
balance,  if any,  to its four  partners.  From its  share of this  amount,  the
Partnership will retain funds necessary to cover the administrative  expenses of
the Partnership and it will then distribute the balance,  if any, to the limited
partners.  The  Partnership  and the Venture will continue in existence at least
until any amounts remaining from the  interest-bearing  indemnity escrow account
have been distributed.

     Although  the  sale  of  the Aurora System represented the sale of the only
remaining  operating asset of the Venture,  the Venture and the Partnership will
not be dissolved  until all proceeds from escrow have been  distributed  and the
Partnership will not be liquidated and dissolved until the pending litigation in
which the  Partnership  is a named  defendant has been resolved and  terminated.
(See Part II, Item 1).

(3)  The Managing General Partner manages the Partnership and the Venture and
received a fee for its services equal to 5 percent of the gross revenues of the
Aurora System, excluding revenues from the sale of cable television systems or
franchises, until its sale on December 4, 1998. The Managing General Partner has
not received and will not receive a management fee after December 4, 1998.
Management fees paid to the Managing General Partner for the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 1998 were $274,205 and $531,102, respectively.

     IDS Cable II Corporation (the "Supervising General Partner") and IDS Cable
Corporation (the supervising general partner of IDS/Jones Growth Partners 89-B,
Ltd.) participated in certain management decisions of the Venture and received a
fee for their services equal to 1/2 percent of the gross revenues of the Aurora
System, excluding revenues from the sale of cable television systems or
franchises. The Supervising General Partner and IDS Cable Corporation have not
received and will not receive a supervision fee after December 4, 1998.
Supervision fees for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 were
$27,420 and $53,110, respectively.
                                       5
<PAGE>

      The Venture  will  continue  to  reimburse  Jones  Intercable,  Inc.,  the
parent of the Managing General  Partner,  for certain  administrative  expenses.
These  expenses  represent the salaries and related  benefits paid for corporate
personnel.  Such personnel provide  administrative,  accounting,  tax, legal and
investor  relations  services to the Venture.  Such services,  and their related
costs, are necessary to the administration of the Venture.  Reimbursements  made
to Jones  Intercable,  Inc.  by the  Venture  for  overhead  and  administrative
expenses during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1999 were $10,694
and $15,808, respectively,  compared to $329,543 and $624,395, respectively, for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998.

      The  Supervising  General  Partner  and IDS Cable  Corporation may also be
reimbursed for certain expenses incurred on behalf of the Venture. There were no
reimbursements  made to the Supervising General Partner or IDS Cable Corporation
for overhead and administrative  expenses during the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998.

                            (A Limited Partnership)

        MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
        ---------------------------------------------------------------
                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                             ---------------------

FINANCIAL CONDITION
-------------------

         The Partnership owns a 65.6 percent interest in the Venture. The
accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Partnership and
the Venture, reduced by the 34.4 percent minority interests in the Venture. The
Venture owned the Aurora System until its sale on December 4, 1998.

         On December 4, 1998, the Venture sold the Aurora System, its only
operating asset, to an unaffiliated party for a sales price of $108,500,000. The
Venture repaid all of its indebtedness, settled working capital adjustments,
deposited $3,283,500 into an interest-bearing indemnity escrow account and
distributed the remaining net sales proceeds of $51,374,610 to its four
partners. The Partnership received $33,678,970, or 65.6 percent, of the
$51,374,610 distribution. The Partnership in turn distributed these funds to its
limited partners.

         The $3,283,500 of the sale proceeds placed in the interest-bearing
indemnity escrow account will remain in escrow until November 15, 1999 as
security for the Venture's agreement to indemnify the buyer under the asset
purchase agreement. The Venture's primary exposure, if any, will relate to the
representations and warranties made about the Aurora System in the asset
purchase agreement. Any amounts remaining from this interest-bearing indemnity
escrow account and not claimed by the buyer at the end of the escrow period,
plus interest earned on escrowed funds, will be returned to the Venture. From
this amount, the Venture will pay its remaining liabilities, which totaled
$1,906,550 at June 30, 1999, and then the Venture will distribute the remaining
balance, if any, to its four partners. From its share of this amount, the
Partnership will retain funds necessary to cover the administrative expenses of
the Partnership and it will then distribute the balance, if any, to the limited
partners. The Partnership and the Venture will continue in existence at least
until any amounts remaining from the interest-bearing indemnity escrow account
have been distributed.

         Although the sale of the Aurora System represented the sale of the only
remaining operating asset of the Venture, the Venture and the Partnership will
not be dissolved until all proceeds from escrow have been distributed and the
Partnership will not be liquidated and dissolved until the pending litigation in
which the Partnership is a named defendant has been resolved and terminated.
(See Part II, Item 1).

         Because the Venture has sold all of its assets and further
distributions, if any, will be made to the limited partners of record as of the
closing date of the sale of the Venture's last remaining cable television
system, new limited partners would not be entitled to any distributions from the
Partnership and transfers of limited partnership interests would have no
economic or practical value. The Managing General Partner therefore has
determined, in accordance with the authority granted to it under Section 3.5 of
the Partnership's limited partnership agreement, that it will not process any
transfers of limited partnership interests in the Partnership during the
remainder of the Partnership's term.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------

         The Venture sold its Aurora System on December 4, 1998 and ceased
operations as of such date. Because the Aurora System was the Venture's only
operating asset, a discussion of results of operations would not be meaningful.
Other expenses of $262,109 incurred in the first six months of 1999 related to
various costs associated with the sale of the Venture's Aurora System. The
Venture and the Partnership will be liquidated and dissolved upon the final
distribution of any amounts remaining from the interest-bearing indemnity escrow
account and the Partnership will be liquidated and dissolved upon the resolution
and termination of the pending litigation.

                          PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

         In July 1999, Jones  Intercable,  Inc., each of its  subsidiaries  that
serve as general partners of managed public partnerships and most of its managed
public partnerships,  including the Partnership, were named defendants in a case
styled Everest Cable Investors, LLC, Everest Properties, LLC, Everest Properties
II, LLC and KM Investments,  LLC, plaintiffs v. Jones Intercable,  Inc., et al.,
defendants  (Superior Court, Los Angeles County,  State of California,  Case No.
C213638).  Plaintiffs,  all of which are affiliated with each other,  are in the
business of, among other things,  investing in limited partnerships that own and
operate cable television  systems.  Plaintiffs allege that one of the plaintiffs
has been a limited  partner  or has  obtained a valid  power-of-attorney  from a
limited partner in each of Jones Intercable,  Inc.'s managed public partnerships
and that they had formed a coordinated plan amongst  themselves to acquire up to
4.9% of the limited  partnership  interests in each of Jones Intercable,  Inc.'s
managed  public  partnerships  during  the  latter  half  of  1996.  Plaintiffs'
complaint alleges that they were frustrated in this purpose by Jones Intercable,
Inc.'s  refusal to provide  plaintiffs  with lists of the names and addresses of
the limited partners of Jones  Intercable,  Inc.'s managed public  partnerships.
The complaint alleges that Jones Intercable Inc.'s actions  constituted a breach
of contract, a breach of Jones Intercable, Inc.'s implied covenant of good faith
and fair dealing owed to the plaintiffs as limited  partners,  a breach of Jones
Intercable, Inc.'s fiduciary duty owed to the plaintiffs as limited partners and
tortious  interference with prospective  economic  advantage.  Plaintiffs allege
that Jones Intercable, Inc.'s failure to provide them with the partnership lists
prevented  them from making their tender  offers and the  plaintiffs  claim that
they have been  injured by such  action in an amount to be proved at trial,  but
not less than $17 million. Given the fact that this case was only recently filed
and that the time for Jones Intercable, Inc.'s response to the complaint has not
yet expired,  Jones  Intercable,  Inc. has not yet responded to this  complaint.
Jones Intercable, Inc. believes, however, that it and the defendant subsidiaries
and managed  public  partnerships  have defenses to the  plaintiffs'  claims for
relief,  and Jones  Intercable,  Inc. intends to defend this lawsuit  vigorously
both on its own behalf and on behalf of its  subsidiaries and its managed public
partnerships.
