                           XEROX CREDIT CORPORATION
                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


 (1) The consolidated financial statements presented herein have been
     prepared by Xerox Credit Corporation (the "Company") in accordance with
     the accounting policies described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K
     for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994 and should be read in
     conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
     which appear in that report.

     In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal
     recurring adjustments) which are necessary for a fair statement of the
     operating results for the interim periods presented have been made.


     Interim financial data presented herein are unaudited.


     In January 1995, Xerox signed a definitive agreement for the sale of
     Xerox Financial Services Life Insurance Company (XFSLIC), a subsidiary of
     the Company's parent, Xerox Financial Services, Inc.  The Company's $74
     million investment in XFSLIC, representing a 26% interest, is reported
     as a component of net assets of discontinued operations on the 
     consolidated balance sheet.  Closing of the sale is expected in the 
     second quarter of 1995.  The Company anticipates that the ultimate
     disposition of this investment will not result in a net loss.
 

 (2) During the first quarter of 1995, the Company sold an aggregate of
     $310 million in principal amount of medium-term notes.  Of this amount,
     $130 million were floating rate notes which mature in 1997 and bear
     interest rates based primarily on spreads above certain reference rates
     such as LIBOR and U.S.Federal Funds Rates.  The remaining notes were
     fixed rate notes which mature in 1996 and 2000 and have been swapped
     into variable rate instruments maturing on the same dates.  Interest
     rates are based on spreads from commercial paper.

 (3) During February 1995, the Company redeemed, at maturity, $150 million
     of 8.75% Notes.


 (4) Pursuant to a Support Agreement between the Company and Xerox Corporation 
     (Xerox), Xerox has agreed to retain ownership of 100 percent of the 
     voting capital stock of the Company and to make periodic payments
     to the extent necessary to ensure that the Company's annual pre-tax
     earnings available for fixed charges equal at least 1.25 times the
     Company's fixed charges.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
            Results of Operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                           Continuing Operations

      Contracts receivable income represents income earned under an agreement
with Xerox pursuant to which the Company purchases long-term accounts 
receivable associated with Xerox' sold equipment.  Earned income from 
contracts receivable for the first quarter of 1995 was $92 million versus $93 
million in the corresponding period in 1994.  

      First quarter interest expense was $53 million in 1995 versus $52
million in 1994.  

      Operating and administrative expenses were $3 million for the first
quarter of 1995 and $4 million for the first quarter of 1994.These expenses
primarily represent the costs associated with the administration of contracts
receivable purchased from Xerox.

       The effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 1995 was 40.5
percent, consistent with the first quarter of 1994.

                         Discontinued Operations

      Since their discontinuance in 1990, the Company has made substantial
progress in disengaging from the real estate and third-party financing
businesses.  For the three years ended December 31, 1994, the Company
received net cash proceeds of $841 million from the sale of discontinued
business units and assets, from several asset securitizations, and
from run-off collection activities.  The amounts received were consistent 
with the Company's estimates in the disposal plan and were primarily used to 
reduce the Company's short-term indebtedness.  At March 31, 1995, the 
Company remains contingently liable for approximately $38 million of 
receivables under recourse provisions associated with the securitization 
transactions.

     During the first quarter of 1995, the Company reduced its net assets
of discontinued operations by approximately $5 million, primarily through
contractual maturities.  The related net proceeds were largely used to repay
short-term indebtedness.

      Since approximately $62 million of the remaining assets represent 
passive lease receivables, many with long-duration contractual maturities and
unique tax attributes, the Company expects that the wind-down of the portfolio
will be slower during 1995 and in future years, compared with 1994 and prior
years.  The Company  currently believes that the liquidation of the remaining 
assets will not result in a net loss.

                           XEROX CREDIT CORPORATION
                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
                                 (Continued)

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

      The Company's principal sources of funds are cash from the collection
of Xerox contracts receivable and borrowings.

      At March 31, 1995 the Company and Xerox have joint access to three
revolving credit agreements totaling $5 billion with various banks, which
credit agreements expire from 1995 to 1999. The interest on amounts borrowed
under these facilities would be at rates based, at the borrower's option, on
spreads above certain reference rates such as LIBOR and Federal funds rates.

      Cash used in operating activities was $9 million in the first 
quarter of 1995 compared to $12 million of cash provided during the same 
period in 1994. The change is primarily due to the increase in the amount
receivable from Xerox.

      Net cash of $44 million was used in investing activities during
the first quarter of 1995, compared with $62 million during the same 
period in 1994. The decrease in cash used in investing activities is 
principally the result of higher net collections from the Company's 
investment in contracts receivable in 1995.

      Cash provided by financing activities was $54 million in the first
quarter of 1995 compared to $50 million during the same period in
1994.

      The Company believes that cash provided by operations, cash available
under its commercial paper program supported by its credit facilities, and its
readily available access to the capital markets are more than sufficient for
its funding needs.

      Borrowing associated with the financing of customer purchases of Xerox
equipment is expected to continue to increase throughout 1995.  This growth
will be partially offset by proceeds from discontinued third-party financing
and leasing asset sales.  The timing, principal amount and form of new short
and long-term funding will be determined based upon the Company's financing
needs and prevailing debt market conditions.

      The Company intends to continue to match its contracts receivable and
indebtedness to maintain the relationship between investment income and
interest expense.  To assist in managing its interest rate exposure, the
Company has entered into a number of interest rate swap agreements.  In
general, the Company's objective is to hedge its variable-rate debt by paying
fixed rates under the swap agreements while receiving variable-rate
payments in return.  Additionally, the Company has entered into interest rate
swap agreements which effectively convert variable-rate debt into variable-
rate debt that is indexed to commercial paper rates.

      As of March 31, 1995, the Company's debt-to-equity ratio was 
6.53 to 1.The Company manages its operations over time using a debt-to-equity
guideline of 6.5 to 1.

      Company's continuing operations by dividing total earnings available
      for fixed charges by total fixed charges.  Interest expense has been
      assigned to discontinued operations principally on the basis of the
      relative amount of gross assets of the discontinued operations.
      Management believes that this allocation method is reasonable in
      light of the amount of debt specifically assigned to discontinued
      operations.  The discontinued operations consist of the Company's real-
      estate development and related financing operations and its third-party
      financing and leasing businesses.

(1)  The ratio of earnings to fixed charges has been computed based on
     Xerox' continuing operations by dividing total earnings available for
     fixed charges, excluding capitalized interest, by total fixed charges.
     Fixed charges consist of interest, including capitalized interest, and
     one-third of rent expense as representative of the interest portion of
     rentals. Interest expense has been assigned to discontinued operations
     principally on the basis of the relative amount of gross assets of the
     discontinued operations.  Xerox management believes that this allocation
     method is reasonable in light of the debt specifically assigned to
     discontinued operations.  The discontinued operations consist of Xerox'
     real-estate development and related financing operations and its third-
     party financing and leasing businesses, and Other Financial Services
     businesses.

                                                                   (Cont'd)


(2)    Xerox' ratio of earnings to fixed charges includes the effect of
       the Xerox' finance subsidiaries who primarily finance Xerox equipment.
       Financing businesses, due to their nature, traditionally operate at
       lower earnings to fixed charge ratio levels than do non-financial
       companies.

(*)    In 1993, the ratio of earnings to fixed charges includes the effect of
       the $1,373 million before-tax ($813 million after-tax) charge incurred
       in connection with the restructuring provision and litigation
       settlement.  Excluding this charge, the ratio was 2.13.  1993 Earnings
       were inadequate to cover fixed charges.  The coverage deficiency was
       $238 million.

(**)   In 1992, the ratio of earnings to fixed charges includes the effect of
       the $936 million before-tax ($778 million after-tax) charge incurred in
       connection with the decision to disengage from the Company's Insurance
       and Other Financial Services businesses.  Excluding this charge, the
       ratio was 2.05.

(***)  In 1991, the ratio of earnings to fixed charges includes the effect of
       the $175 million before-tax ($101 million after-tax) charge incurred in
       connection with a Document Processing work-force reduction.  Excluding
       this charge, the ratio was 2.08.

(****) Sum of income before income taxes and income attributable to minority 
       owned companies.
