Report of Independent Accountants
To the Participants and Administrative Committee of
the Tandy Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits
present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits
of the Tandy Fund (the "Plan") at March 31, 2001 and 2000, and the changes in
net assets available for benefits for the year ended March 31, 2001, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. 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 of these statements in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America, which 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, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental Schedule of Assets (Held
at End of Year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a
required part of the basic financial statements but is 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 schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The
supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly
stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements
taken as a whole.

1. Description of Plan:
The following description of the Tandy Fund (the "Plan") provides only
general information. Participants should refer to the Summary Plan
Description, which also constitutes the Plan's prospectus, or the Plan
document for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering employees of RadioShack
Corporation, its divisions and subsidiaries ("the Company" or
"RadioShack") who will have completed at least one year of service, of
not less than 1,000 hours in the following calendar quarter. The Tandy
Fund is an individual account plan with multiple, participant-directed
investment options which is intended to comply with the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") Section 404(c).
The Plan is subject to Titles I and II of ERISA relating to the
protection of employee benefit rights and amendments to the Internal
Revenue Code, respectively, but is not subject to Title IV, relating to
plan termination insurance coverage.
As of March 31, 2001 and 2000, there were 11,749 and 11,804 employees of
the Company participating in the Plan and 20,205 and 19,640 employees
eligible to participate, respectively.
Plan Trustee
The Company's Board of Directors has appointed Putnam Fiduciary Trust
Company ("Putnam") as the Plan's trustee.
Methods of Operation
The Tandy Fund is a defined-contribution plan consisting of a
Company-directed portion (which includes an ESOP) and a
participant-directed portion.
The ESOP portion of the Plan is comprised of three accounts: the
"Suspense" account, the "ESOP Preferred Stock" account and the "Profit
Sharing" account.
The "Suspense" account had an original unallocated share account, which
consisted of 100,000 shares of RadioShack Corporation Series B TESOP
Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock"). The Preferred Stock
was purchased in July 1990 with funds obtained through a $100 million
borrowing. Each share of Preferred Stock is convertible into 87.072
shares of RadioShack common stock and its minimum resale value is
guaranteed by the Company to be $1,000 per share. This series of
Preferred Stock has certain liquidation preferences and may be redeemed
by the Company at specified premiums. The borrowing is discussed in
Note 2.
The unallocated shares of Preferred Stock and their related debt are held
in the "Suspense" account. Funds are derived from Company contributions
and dividends paid on the Preferred Stock. These funds are used to pay
the debt which releases a pro rata portion of the Preferred Stock and the
Preferred Stock released is allocated to the individual "ESOP Preferred
Stock" accounts of the participants. The allocation to participants'
accounts occurs as of the last day of each plan year.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Description of Plan, continued:
The "ESOP Preferred Stock" account represents the participants' interests
in Preferred Stock that have been allocated to the participants'
individual accounts from the "Suspense" account.
The "Profit Sharing" account represents discretionary matching
contributions made to the Plan by RadioShack Corporation and allocated to
the participants' individual accounts.
Participant Contributions
Participants are allowed to defer (in increments of 1%) a minimum of 1%
of gross salary and wages up to a maximum of 8%. Contributions per
participant are limited to certain annual maximums as set forth by the
Internal Revenue Code.
Participants are provided with the option to direct their contributions
in various investment options; each of which is described in more detail
in Note 3. Participants may elect to contribute portions of their total
contributions to the various investment options in increments of 5%.
Participants are not subject to current federal income taxation on their
deferred contributions to the Plan.
Company Contributions
Company contributions are made directly to the Tandy Fund through the
ESOP portion of the Plan. The Company is obligated to make semi-annual
contributions to the Plan to enable it to pay principal and interest on
the indebtedness directly associated with the Preferred Stock. Cash
dividends are paid on shares of Preferred Stock semi-annually on June 30
and December 31 at the rate of 7.5% per annum. Cash dividends paid on all
shares of Preferred Stock and additional cash contributed by the Company
to the Plan are used to make payments of principal and interest on the
debt that was created to purchase the Preferred Stock. As the debt is
reduced, a pro rata number of shares of Preferred Stock is released and
allocated to participants' "Preferred Stock" accounts as of the last day
of each plan year. The allocation is based on the total number of shares
to be allocated less shares allocated in lieu of cash dividends,
multiplied by a fraction equal to the amount of a participants' deferred
salary contribution to the Plan over the total deferred salary
contributions of all participants in the Plan for the current Plan year.
As a result of using dividends to pay down the principal on the debt,
shares of Preferred Stock equal to the value of the dividend are released
and allocated to participants' accounts. The amount of dividends
allocated to a participant is an amount equal to the number of shares
released multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number
of a participant's shares owned on the allocation date, and the
denominator of which is the total shares owned by all participants.
RadioShack Corporation is eligible to make discretionary matching
contributions to the participants' "Profit Sharing" account at any time.
No discretionary "Profit Sharing" contributions were made to the Plan
during the year ended March 31, 2001.

1. Description of Plan, continued:
Participants' Accounts
Participants' ESOP accounts are valued as of the last day of each month.
Participants' investments in common stock and in the various other
investment options are valued daily. Each participant is mailed a
quarterly statement showing their contributions, Company contributions,
total contributions and the market value of their account. Each
participant is also mailed the following:
. a copy of the annual report of RadioShack Corporation,
. any RadioShack Stock Plan/Plan prospectus incorporated by reference
into the registration statements on Form S-8 or an appendix to the
prospectus,
. any material amendment made to any revised summary plan description
booklet, which also constitutes the Plan's prospectus, and the summary
annual report.
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their deferred and voluntary
contributions to the Plan plus actual earnings thereon. A participant,
who was an employee on September 30, 1990, is fully vested at all times
in all shares allocated to his or her Stock account, along with earnings
thereon and forfeitures of terminated participants' nonvested accounts. A
participant who does not meet this requirement will become fully vested
in the Company's contributions upon the earlier to occur of five years of
service with the Company or three years of continuous participation in
the Plan. The Plan is being retroactively amended to adjust the service
and participation requirements for vesting in Company contributions. See
additional discussion in Note 4.
Payment of Benefits
Participants who withdraw from the Plan may receive the vested portion of
their accounts under one of four withdrawal methods, which are summarized
below:
(1) Single sum payment in cash
(2) Purchase of an annuity contract to provide regular monthly income
over a designated period of time, of not less than two years nor
more than fifteen years (or the participant's actual life
expectancy, if shorter)
(3) Equal monthly cash installments for a period of up to ten years (or
the participant's actual life expectancy, if shorter)
(4) Part cash and part securities
Forfeited Accounts
Forfeited nonvested accounts of terminated participants are allocated
among the remaining participants' accounts. A total of $3,185,822 was
allocated to participants' accounts as a result of forfeitures for the
year ended March 31, 2001.
Loans to Participants
A participant may borrow up to 50% of his or her vested account value in
the Plan not to exceed the lesser of: 1) $50,000 or 2) an amount that can
be fully repaid by payroll deduction payments that do not exceed 25% of
the participant's regular gross wages. The minimum loan amount is $500;
to be repaid through authorized payroll deductions. The term of a loan
may not be less than six months (or multiples of six months) and not more
than five years. The interest rate of the loan is fixed by

1. Description of Plan, continued:
Loans to Participants, continued:
the Administrative Committee and is based on the interest rate currently
charged on commercial loans. The weighted average interest rate charged
on participant loan balances was 9.76% for the year ended March 31, 2001.
Interest received on participant loans was $1,563,269 for the year ended
March 31, 2001. A portion, not to exceed 50%, of the participant's dollar
value interest in the Plan, is pledged as collateral on outstanding
participant loans.
Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the
right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to
terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of
Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Basis of Accounting
The Plan's financial statements are prepared under the accrual method of
accounting.
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 revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. Shares of registered
investment companies are valued at quoted market prices, which represent
the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end. RadioShack
common stock is valued at its closing market price. RadioShack preferred
stock is valued on a monthly basis by an independent, third-party
appraiser. Participant loans are valued at cost, which approximates fair
value.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis.
Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net appreciation or
depreciation of investments as reported in the statement of changes in
net assets available for plan benefits is calculated based on a revalued
cost method basis as required by ERISA.
Contributions
Contributions from participants are accrued in the period in which they
are deducted in accordance with salary deferral agreements, and as such,
become obligations of the Company and assets of the Plan.
Benefits
Benefits are recorded when paid.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:
Notes Payable
The "1990 Notes" were issued under an indenture dated June 30, 1990 in
denominations of $1,000 limited to $100,000,000 aggregate principal
amount that matured and was paid in full on June 30, 2000. The 1990 Notes
bore interest at 9.34% per annum payable semi-annually on each December
30 and June 30 through June 30, 2000.
On December 15, 1994, the Plan entered into an agreement with an
unrelated third party to refinance a portion of the 1990 Notes. Under
this agreement, the Plan has borrowed, in a series of six notes
("Notes"), $16,693,000 at interest rates ranging from 5.84% to 8.76%.
These Notes are also guaranteed by the Company and mature on dates
ranging from December 30, 2000 to December 30, 2002. Maturities of the
Notes are as follows:
For the Plan's Fiscal Year:
4/1/01 - 3/31/02 $ 7,826,000
4/1/02 - 3/31/03 3,804,000
------------
$ 11,630,000
============
The fair value of the Plan's total debt of $11,630,000 is approximately
$11,744,000 at March 31, 2001.
Expenses of the Plan
At March 31, 2001, the trustee was responsible for both the management
and record keeping of the Plan's assets. Administrative expenses of the
Plan are generally paid directly to the trustee by the Company and thus
are not a component of the changes in net assets available for Plan
benefits.
Concentration of Plan Assets
The Tandy Fund has approximately 78% and 81% of its total investments
(including unallocated Preferred Stock) invested in securities of its
sponsor, RadioShack Corporation, at March 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.

4. Tax Status of the Plan:
The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue
Service dated April 28, 1998. The Plan has subsequently been amended and
management will request a similar determination letter from the Internal
Revenue Service for the Plan. Management believes that the Plan remains
qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and
applicable sections of ERISA and, therefore, the trust is exempt from
taxation under Section 501(a). Accordingly, employee contributions,
employer contributions, and earnings of the Plan are not taxable to
participants until distributed.
During fiscal 2000 the Plan discovered that Putnam failed to administer
the Plan in accordance with certain of its terms, thereby failing to
comply with Section 404(a)(1)(D) of ERISA. Most of these were technical
violations that arose out of the failure to follow voluntary optional
Plan provisions that are not required by ERISA or the Code. These
voluntary optional Plan provisions are: (i) aggregate loan repayment
amounts cannot exceed 25% of a participant's bi-weekly salary; (ii) no
more than two loans may be originated in a 12 month period; (iii)
participants may not make salary deferrals to the Plan within a certain
period following an in-service withdrawal; and (iv) participants become
fully vested in the Company's contributions upon the earlier to occur of
five years of service with the Company or three years of continuous
participation in the Plan. Additionally, certain loans were not repaid
within five years as required by Code Section 72(p).
In order to rectify the incorrect loans and vesting issues, the Plan is
being retroactively amended to eliminate the loan limitation provisions
described in (i) and (ii) above during the applicable period. The Plan is
also being amended so that the service and participation requirements for
vesting in Company contributions reflect the actual administration of the
Plan. With respect to salary deferrals that were permitted too quickly
following an in-service withdrawal, the Plan will unwind these
transactions and the Plan and its participants (who did not make these
erroneous deferrals) will be restored to where they would have been had
these erroneous deferrals never taken place. Also, the Plan will
distribute the erroneous deferrals and earnings to the affected
participants and issue them Forms 1099-R. With respect to loans
outstanding greater than 5 years, the Plan will provide participants with
an opportunity to repay the loan, and upon failure to do so, will default
the loan. On April 26, 2001 the Plan applied to the Internal Revenue
Service under their "Walk-In-Closing Agreement Program" ("Walk-In CAP")
for approval of the recommended amendments and these remedial actions. At
September 20, 2001, no final agreement has been made with the Internal
Revenue Service.
At March 31, 2001 the Plan has accrued $147,083 with respect to the
correction of deferrals. All costs in connection with the remedial
actions will be borne by Putnam, not the Plan nor its participants.
5. Related Party Transactions:
Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds managed by Putnam
Investments. Putnam Investments is the trustee as defined by the Plan
and, therefore, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest.
The Company redeemed $18,685,157 of Preferred Stock from the Plan during
2001.
