payable from a life insurance company.  Amounts allocated to participants who 
have elected to withdraw from the Plan but have not been paid are $122,742 and 
$1,875,933 at December 31, 1996 and 1995 respectively.

Employee Savings Contributions

Subject to limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, eligible employees 
may contribute up to 18% of pay (as defined in the Plan) through a 
combination of before-tax and after-tax payroll deductions.  (The maximum 
before-tax contribution for the 1996 calendar year is $9,500.)  Employees 
are immediately vested in their savings contributions.
Xerox Corporation matches 35% of employee savings contributions, up to a 
maximum match equaling 4% of annual pay.  These contributions are made annually
to eligible participants of record on the last day of February following the
Plan year-end.  The 1996 contribution will be recorded in the 1997 financial
statements.

(1)  Description of Plan (continued)

Xerox Optional Profit Sharing Contributions

Eligible employees may receive an optional profit sharing contribution 
from the sponsor.  The contribution ranges from zero to 10% of pay 
and is based upon the return on assets (ROA) of the Xerox Document 
Processing industry segment as defined in the Plan document and the
participant's length of service. 

An employee may receive the contribution in cash or Xerox Corporation 
common stock, or may elect to invest all or part of the contribution on 
a tax deferred basis, subject to limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code,
through the Plan's investment funds.  Employees are immediately vested in 
optional profit sharing contributions.

During 1996, the sponsor's ROA was 17.8%, which resulted in an optional profit
sharing contribution for all eligible active employees at December 31, 1996
equal to 10.0% of pay or $20,644,353.  Participants elected to invest
$3,077,165 into the Plan at December 31, 1996.

During 1995, the sponsor's ROA was 18.5%, which resulted in an optional profit
sharing contribution for all eligible active employees at December 31, 1995
equal to 10.0% of pay or $21,672,430.  Participants elected to invest
$2,922,024 into the Plan at December 31, 1995.

Investment Funds

As further described in note 3, the investment funds are part of the Xerox 
Trust Agreement to Fund Retirement Plans (Master Trust).  Employees can direct
their plan accounts to one or more of the following six investment funds:

International Stock Fund -- Invests primarily in stocks of companies based 
outside of the United States.

U.S. Stock Fund -- Invests primarily in stocks of medium to large U.S. 
companies.

			  Notes to Financial Statements

(1)  Description of Plan (continued)

Small Company Stock Fund  -- Invests primarily in stocks of smaller U.S. 
companies that fund managers believe have greater value than indicated by the
current market price, or above average prospects for long-term growth.

Balanced Fund -- Under normal market conditions, invests approximately 70%
in stocks; most of the remainder in bonds; some real estate, private 
placements, and cash.  The mix may shift with market outlook.

Income Fund -- Invests in contracts with insurance companies and banks; short
to intermediate duration, high-quality bonds.

Xerox Stock Fund -- Invests in Xerox Corporation common stock and cash
for administrative purposes.

Segregated Assets Fund

This fund was established on April 1, 1991 and represented participant 
investments in certain guaranteed investment contracts which were segregated 
and frozen.  See note 4 to the financial statements for further discussion.

Employee Loan Fund

Participants are permitted to borrow from their profit sharing savings 
accounts subject to certain limitations.  The loans are payable over terms 
up to 14.5 years and bear interest at the quarterly Citibank commercial 
prime rate in effect at the time of loan issuance plus 1%.  Principal and 
interest payments on the loans are redeposited into the participants' 
accounts based on their current investment allocation elections.
At December 31, 1996, market value on loans approximates fair value.  Loan
issuances net of principal repayments on outstanding loans are reflected as
a transfer among funds in the statement of changes of net assets available
for benefits.

(2)  Federal Income Taxes

The Plan obtained its latest determination letter from the Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) on September 8, 1995, covering Plan amendments through
December 31, 1994, indicating that the Plan, as designed, was in compliance

			  Notes to Financial Statements


(2)  Federal Income Taxes (continued)

with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.  The Plan 
Administrator and the Plan's internal tax counsel believe that the Plan, as
currently designed and operated, is in compliance with the applicable 
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.  Accordingly, they believe that 
the Plan was qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of the financial
statement date.

As long as the Plan continues to be qualified under present federal income tax 
laws and regulations, participants will not be taxed on company contributions 
or on investment earnings on such contributions at the time such contributions 
and investment earnings are received by the trustee under the Plan, but may be 
subject to tax thereon at such time as they receive distributions under the
Plan.

(3)  Master Trust
	
As discussed in note 1, the Plan participates in the Master Trust.  The
following other Xerox employee benefit plans also participate in the Master
Trust as of December 31, 1996:
	
     Xerox Corporation Profit Sharing and Savings Plan;
	
     Xerox Corporation Retirement Income Guarantee Plan;
	
     Retirement Income Guarantee Plan of Xerox Corporation 
     and The Xerographic Division, Union of Needletrades, Industrial
     and Textile Employees, A.F.L.-C.I.O.-C.L.C.; and
	
     XDS Investment Plan.

The Master Trust has six investment pools -- the International Stock Pool,
U.S. Stock Pool, Small Company Stock Pool, All Other Pool, Income Fund, and 
the Xerox Stock Fund.  Participants direct their accounts into investment 
funds, as described in note 1, which participate in the aforementioned 
investment pools.  Each of the plans has an ownership interest in one or more 
of these investment pools in accordance with that interest as determined by 
participant fund elections.  In addition, prior to December 31, 1996, there 
was a Segregated Assets Fund which is discussed in note 4.

(3)  Master Trust (continued)
	
With respect to the Plan, the Joint Administrative Board (JAB) 
is responsible for establishing investment guidelines, reviewing the 
investment decisions and reviewing investment results.  The JAB
consists at present of five Xerox Corporation representatives and 
five union representatives.
	
Marketable securities are valued at the last reported sales price on the last 
business day of the year. Quotations are obtained from national securities
exchanges or, in instances where securities are not listed on any of the 
exchanges, quotations are obtained from brokerage firms. 

Non-readily marketable investments, which include private placements, are
carried at fair value, based on the cost of the investments, developments
concerning the portfolio investments of the private placements, and such other
factors as the managing general partners of these investments may deem relevant.
The valuations do not necessarily represent amounts which might ultimately be 
realized from the investments.  

The value of the investment contracts with insurance companies and banks 
is at contract value, which approximates fair value.  In connection with the
investment contracts, all of which are fully benefit-responsive, the following
information is presented:

(i)     The average investment yields for the years ended December 31,
	1996 and 1995 were 7.3% and 6.9%, respectively.

(ii)    The crediting interest rates at December 31, 1996 and 1995 ranged
	from 5.0% to 9.3%.

(iii)   The fair value, as determined by discounting estimated future cash 
	flows for traditional GIC's and the market value of underlying 
	investments and the associated wrapper for synthetic GIC'S, at 
	December 31, 1996 and 1995 was $588,280,797 and $772,781,602, 
	respectively.  Contract values were $580,604,526 and $756,873,345 
	at December 31,1996 and 1995, respectively.

The Master Trust invests in real estate group trusts.  These trusts provide 
pension and profit sharing plans with a medium for pooling their funds for
investment in income producing real estate.  The investment trusts value real
estate holdings at estimated market value based upon independent appraisals,
consideration of significant changes in economic circumstances, and capital 
additions made to properties after the appraisal date.  Such market value 
estimates necessarily involve subjective judgments.  Accordingly, the actual
market price of the real estate can only be determined by negotiation between
independent third parties in a sales transaction.

(3)  Master Trust (continued)


Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade date basis. Dividend
income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.  Interest income is recorded 
as earned.  Margin variation represents market fluctuations on futures 
investments.

Derivative financial instruments are used by the Master Trust's equity and 
balanced portfolio investment managers primarily to rebalance the fixed income/
equity allocation of the Master Trust's portfolio and to hedge the currency 
risk component of the Master Trust's foreign investments.  Certain of the 
Master Trust's fixed income investment managers are permitted to use certain
specified types of derivative instruments as part of their respective 
strategies.  These strategies include the use of futures and options as 
substitutes for certain types of fixed income securities. Leveraging of the
Master Trust's assets and speculation are prohibited. Currency hedge positions
are not permitted to exceed the level of exposure in the related Master Trust's
assets.

The derivatives most commonly used by the investment managers are highly liquid
exchange traded equity and fixed income futures and over-the-counter foreign 
exchange forward contracts.  The use of derivative instruments is not

 (4)  Segregated Assets Fund - Investment Contracts With Executive
     Life Insurance Company

</TABLE>
On April 11, 1991, the California Department of Insurance (CDI) took 
over Executive Life Insurance Company (ELIC) citing a "serious danger
of insolvency" and temporarily suspended all payments on Guaranteed 
Investment Contracts (GICs) issued by ELIC.  Effective April 1, 1991, 
in order to treat all participants fairly, $66 million in affected assets
were transferred into a Segregated Assets Fund.

Through December 31, 1996, the Xerox retirement and savings plans have 
received $66 million in payments related to the ELIC investments.  These 
payments represent the recovery of 100% of each participant's original 
investment plus $1.6 million in interest.  Should Xerox receive additional
payments from ELIC for unrecognized interest income associated with the 
original GIC's, the proceeds will be allocated to those participants 
originally invested in ELIC based upon their percent interest on 
April 11, 1991.  All proceeds will be recorded through the income fund and
transferred to other funds based on a participants allocation elections at
the time of receipt.

(5)  Unit Values
	
The interests of Plan participants in each of the funds is expressed 
in terms of units, representing undivided interests in the net assets 
of the fund.  Unit value is calculated monthly by dividing the total 
value of net assets of each fund (reduced by employer contributions 
receivable not yet received by the Master Trust and by unaccrued benefit 
payments and other reconciling items) by units outstanding at the valuation
date.

The total number of units and net asset value per unit outstanding during 
the year ended December 31, 1996 were as follows:

			  INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Plan Administrator and Participants 
The Profit Sharing Plan of Xerox Corporation and The Xerographic
Division, Union of Needletrades, Industrial and Textile Employees,
A.F.L.-C.I.O.-C.L.C.

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for plan 
benefits of the Profit Sharing Plan of Xerox Corporation and The Xerographic 
Division, Union of Needletrades, Industrial and Textile Employees, A.F.L.-
C.I.O.-C.L.C. (Plan) as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the related 
statements of changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years
then ended.  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 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 net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan 
as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the changes in those net assets available 
for Plan benefits for the years then ended in conformity with generally 
accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were performed 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 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 fund information in the statements of net assets
available for plan benefits and the statement of changes in the assets 
available for plan benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis 
rather than to present the net assets available for plan benefits and changes 
in the assets available for plan benefits of each fund.  The supplemental 
schedule and fund information have been subjected to the auditing procedures 
applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, 
are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.
