PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General Motors Acceptance Corporation (the "Company" or "GMAC"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of General Motors Corporation ("General Motors" or
"GM"), was incorporated in 1919 under the New York Banking Law relating to
investment companies.
GMAC and its affiliated companies offer a wide variety of automotive
financial services to and through franchised General Motors dealers in many
countries throughout the world. GMAC also offers financial services to other
automobile dealerships in which GM dealers have an interest and to the
customers of those dealerships. GMAC's other financial services include
insurance, mortgage banking and investment services.
The Company operates directly and through its subsidiaries and through
associated companies in which it has equity investments. In its principal
markets, GMAC offers automotive financing and other services as described
below. The Company operates its automotive financing services similarly
outside North America, subject to local laws or other circumstances that may
modify procedures.
The automotive financing field is highly competitive. The Company's
principal competitors are a large number of banks, credit unions and other
finance companies. The business of the Company is influenced by the general
economic climate in the areas in which it operates as well as the level of
interest rates.
RETAIL FINANCING
GMAC conducts its retail automotive financing business under the trade
name GMAC Financial Services. The Company provides financing services to
customers through dealers who have established relationships with GMAC. GMAC
purchases retail instalment obligations from dealers for new and used
products directly from dealers. These obligations must first meet GMAC's
credit standards. Thereafter, GMAC collects and administers the obligations.
Retail obligations are generally secured by lien notation on vehicles
and/or other forms of security interest in the products financed. GMAC
acquires the security interest when it purchases the instalment obligations.
After satisfying state requirements, GMAC can repossess the product if the
instalment buyer fails to meet the obligations of the contract. The
interests of both GMAC and the retail buyer usually are protected by
automobile physical damage insurance.
WHOLESALE FINANCING
Using GMAC's wholesale financing, dealers can finance new and used
vehicles held in inventory pending sale or lease to retail or fleet buyers.
When a dealer uses GMAC's Wholesale Finance Plan to acquire vehicles from a
manufacturer, GMAC is granted a security interest in those vehicles. GMAC
can repossess the product if the dealer does not pay the amount advanced or
fails to comply with other conditions specified in the security agreement.
GMAC also makes term loans to dealers and their affiliates for
acquisitions, refurbishing, real estate purchases and working capital. The
Company generally secures the loans with liens on real estate, other
dealership assets or the personal guarantee of the dealer.
I-1
<PAGE>5
ITEM 1. BUSINESS (continued)
LEASING
Dealers, their affiliates and other companies also may obtain GMAC
financing to buy vehicles that they lease or rent to others. In most cases,
GMAC has a security interest in these products. The loan agreements usually
state that the rent is payable to GMAC if the lessors default. More than
half of GMAC's lease financing receivables are covered by General Motors
programs which provide that, under certain conditions and with certain
limitations, General Motors will absorb the loss realized by the
participating financing institutions as long as the vehicles are repossessed
and returned to the selling dealer.
GMAC uses several leasing plans to lease vehicles. SmartLease is the
primary plan GMAC uses to lease GM vehicles to retail customers. With
SmartLease, dealers originate the leases and offer them for purchase by
GMAC, which then assumes ownership of the vehicle. Dealers are not
responsible for the customer's performance during the lease period or for the
value of the vehicle at the time of lease maturity.
INSURANCE
Motors Insurance Corporation and its subsidiaries ("MIC") conduct
insurance operations in the United States, Canada and Europe. MIC insures
and reinsures selected personal, mechanical, commercial and credit insurance
coverages.
Personal lines coverages, which include automobile, homeowners and
umbrella liability insurance, are offered primarily on a direct response
basis. MIC insures mechanical coverage for new and used vehicles sold by GM
dealers and others. MIC also provides credit life and disability coverage
through dealerships to vehicle purchasers. Commercial lines include product
liability and other coverages written for General Motors, insurance for
dealer vehicle inventories and other dealer property and casualty coverages.
MIC also provides collateral protection coverage to GMAC on vehicles securing
GMAC retail instalment contracts. Additionally, MIC is a reinsurer of
diverse property and casualty risks, primarily in the domestic market.
MORTGAGE BANKING
GMAC Mortgage Corporation and its subsidiaries ("GMACM") conduct mortgage
banking operations in the United States. GMACM originates and markets
single-family and commercial mortgage loans to investors and services these
loans on behalf of investors. GMACM also offers home equity loans in some
states.
GMACM, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Residential Funding
Corporation ("RFC"), is also engaged in the residential wholesale mortgage
conduit business. RFC purchases high balance, single-family residential
mortgages from mortgage lenders throughout the United States, securitizes
such mortgages into AA or AAA rated mortgage pass-through certificates, sells
the certificates to investors and performs master servicing of these
securities on behalf of investors. RFC also provides warehouse lending
facilities to certain mortgage banking customers, with advances secured by
mortgage collateral.
SERVICING
GMAC services the retail instalment obligations it has sold to third
parties in GMAC's asset-backed securities program.

ITEM 1. BUSINESS (concluded)
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company and its subsidiaries have 301 finance branches, 27 insurance
offices and 116 mortgage offices. Of the number of finance branches, 225
are in the United States and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, 25 in Canada
and 51 in other countries. There are 19 insurance offices in the United
States, 2 in Canada and 6 in Europe. Mortgage offices are all located in the
United States. All premises are generally occupied under lease.
Automobiles, office equipment and real estate properties owned and in use by
the Company are not significant in relation to the total assets of the
Company.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There are various claims and pending actions against the Company and its
subsidiaries with respect to commercial and consumer financing matters, taxes
and other matters arising out of the conduct of the business. Certain of
these actions are or purport to be class actions, seeking damages in very
large amounts. The amounts of liability on these claims and actions at
December 31, 1993, were not determinable but, in the opinion of management,
the ultimate liability resulting therefrom should not have a material adverse
effect on the Company's consolidated financial position.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY
AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of General Motors Corporation
and, accordingly, all shares of the Company's common stock are owned by
General Motors Corporation. There is no market for the Company's common
stock.
The Company paid cash dividends to General Motors Corporation of $1,250
million in 1993, $1,100 million in 1992 and $850 million in 1991.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Industry deliveries of new passenger cars and trucks in the United States
in the 1993 calendar year increased by 8% to 14.2 million units from
prior-year deliveries of 13.1 million units. Deliveries of new General
Motors vehicles in the U.S. increased to 4.7 million units in 1993 from 4.5
million units in 1992. GMAC financed 28% of new General Motors vehicles
delivered by GM dealers in the U.S. during 1993, down 5 percentage points
from 1992. The decline in penetration primarily reflects the use of fewer
factory-supported finance programs by General Motors as well as intense
competitive pressures as a result of the reduction in market interest rates.
The decline also reflects liquidity and cost driven pricing actions taken by
GMAC earlier in the year that dampened volume, which actions were moderated
by mid-year in line with improving liquidity conditions. Since March, U.S.
market penetration has trended upward, reaching 31% in December, 1993.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Consolidated net income totaled $981.1 million in 1993, or $45.0
million above and $388.6 million below income reported in 1992 and 1991,
respectively. In this regard, 1992 income reflects a cumulative unfavorable
adjustment of $282.6 million related to implementation of the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 106 - Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other
Than Pensions; 1991 income reflects a favorable cumulative adjustment of
$331.5 million due to the adoption of SFAS No. 109 - Accounting for Income
Taxes.
The following table summarizes the earnings of GMAC's financing and
insurance businesses on a reported and comparable year-to-year basis:

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(continued)
The Company has disclosed in the financial statements certain amounts
associated with estimated future postretirement benefits other than pensions
and characterized such amounts as "accumulated postretirement benefit
obligations," "liabilities" or "obligations." Notwithstanding the recording
of such amounts and the use of these terms, the Company does not admit or
otherwise acknowledge that such amounts or existing postretirement benefit
plans of the Company (other than pensions) represent legally enforceable
liabilities of the Company.
FINANCE VOLUME
GMAC financed or leased worldwide 1.9 million new passenger cars and
trucks during 1993, down 14% from 2.2 million last year. In the United
States, GMAC financed or leased 1.4 million new vehicles during the year,
277,000 fewer than in 1992.
Outside the United States, GMAC financed or leased 527,000 new vehicles
in 1993, down 34,000 units from a year ago. The decrease was primarily the
result of a decline in GMAC of Canada's retail penetration from 35.3% in 1992
to 33.7% in 1993, due primarily to competitive pressures brought about by
aggressive bank competition.
The average new passenger car contract purchased by GMAC in the United
States during 1993 was $16,400, up from $15,900 in 1992. The average term
for new car contracts was 54 months in 1993, compared to 52 months in 1992,
while the average monthly payment on new retail contracts decreased slightly
to $302 in 1993 from $305 in 1992.
Leasing volume worldwide, primarily acquired under GMAC's SmartLease
program, remained strong during 1993, with 347,000 units leased. This was
11% above the prior year. In addition, GMAC financed 106,000 units during
1993 under its SmartBuy program. This product offers consumers many of the
advantages of leasing, namely lower monthly payments, with consumers
retaining ownership of the vehicles. GMAC financed 60,000 units under
SmartBuy during 1992.
GMAC, in conjunction with General Motors, also provides financing for GM
and other dealers' new and used vehicle inventories. In the United States,
inventory financing was provided on 3.6 million and 3.4 million new GM
vehicles, representing 77% and 78% of all GM sales to dealers during 1993 and
1992, respectively.
EARNING ASSETS
Total assets of the Company at December 31, 1993, were $80.8 billion,
$12.0 billion below the previous year. Earning assets, which comprised $74.8
billion of the total assets, declined $12.4 billion from 1992 year-end
levels. The reduction was primarily due to sales of retail receivables as
well as asset liquidations in excess of acquisitions in the United States.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, which primarily include short term borrowed
funds in excess of requirements invested in short-term marketable securities,
increased $157 million in 1993 to $4,028.1 million from $3,871.1 million at
the end of 1992. The consolidated investment portfolio, primarily
attributable to MIC, with equity securities valued at market and bonds, notes
and other securities at amortized cost, totaled $3.4 billion at year-end
II-4
<PAGE>11
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(continued)
1993, compared with $3.3 billion at the end of 1992. The composition of
MIC's portfolio at year-end 1993 consisted of 26% taxable bonds, 59%
tax-favored bonds, 14% common stocks and 1% preferred stocks.
The balance of retail, lease financing and leasing receivables, net of
unearned income, worldwide amounted to $29.8 billion at December 31, 1993, a
$9.7 billion decrease from the prior year-end. The lower receivable levels
reflect sales of retail receivables during 1993 in the United States and
Canada aggregating $13.6 billion of principal sold. The Company's servicing
portfolio reflected a principal balance of retail sold receivables amounting
to $14.9 billion at year-end 1993, up $4.0 billion from $10.9 billion at
year-end 1992. Wholesale receivables of $20.7 billion at year-end were up
$6.5 billion from 1992, principally attributable to GMAC resuming the
financing of dealer wholesale inventory previously financed by General
Motors, partially offset by lower levels of GM dealer stocks financed.
Term loans to GM dealers and others were $4.4 billion at the close of
1993, a decrease of 4% from the prior year end. These loans provide dealers
and their affiliates with a source of funds to help finance dealership
acquisitions, building improvements and seasonal working capital
requirements.
Receivables from General Motors Corporation decreased to $1.4 billion at
the end of 1993, compared with $11.6 billion at the end of 1992. This
reduction reflects the resumption by GMAC of dealer wholesale inventory
financing which had previously been provided by General Motors. Such General
Motors financing had been supported by a financing agreement under which GMAC
had extended loans to General Motors. This financing agreement has been
terminated.
GMAC's operating lease assets, net of depreciation, totaled $11.4 billion
at year-end 1993, an increase of $1.5 billion when compared to 1992. These
assets primarily represent vehicles purchased by GMAC for lease to dealers'
retail customers. In the United States and Canada, such leases are offered
principally under the SmartLease program which encourages shorter customer
trading cycles and allows greater flexibility in dealers' retail lease
transactions. Similar leasing programs are also available in Germany and 14
other countries. From time-to-time, General Motors Corporation may elect to
sponsor retail leasing programs using residual values in excess of published
residual guide books used by GMAC. Under these programs, General Motors
agrees to reimburse or otherwise compensate GMAC for the additional risk
associated with such increased residual values, subject to certain conditions
and limitations. Payments received from General Motors are included in the
determination of gain or loss on vehicle disposition.
Real estate mortgage inventory held for sale was $1.8 billion, down
$711.1 million from the prior year-end level. This decrease is primarily due
to accelerated sales of real estate mortgages inventory held for sale
resulting from favorable secondary market conditions. The Company's net
investment in sold receivables pools increased $539.7 million to $1,857.6
million at year-end 1993 compared to $1,317.9 million at December 31, 1992,
primarily as a result of the 1993 receivable sale activity. Other earning
assets declined $428.0 million to $795.2 million at December 31, 1993. This
decrease is primarily the result of a lower inventory of off-lease vehicles
purchased from General Motors, which are held for resale, in line with GM's
reduced reliance on fleet sales.
II-5
<PAGE>12
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(continued)
Intangible assets included in other assets totaled $360.9 million at the
end of 1993, compared with $514.9 million in the prior year. Other
nonearning assets, comprised primarily of repossessed vehicles, foreclosed
loans or loans otherwise classified as nonearning and insurance premium
receivables, increased $354.5 million to $1.6 billion. This increase can be
primarily attributed to the requirement to record reinsurance receivable and
prepaid reinsurance premiums as assets in accordance with SFAS No. 113 -
Accounting and Reporting for Reinsurance of Short-Duration and Long-Duration
Contracts. This statement, which was adopted effective January 1, 1993,
eliminated the prior practice of reporting assets and liabilities related to
reinsured contracts net of the effects of reinsurance.
LIQUIDITY
The Company's liquidity, as well as its ability to profitably effect
ongoing acquisition activity, is in large part dependent upon its timely
access to and the costs associated with raising funds in different segments
of the capital markets. In this regard, GMAC regularly accesses the short-,
medium-, and long- term debt markets, principally through commercial paper,
medium-term notes and underwritten transactions. As of December 31, 1993,
GMAC's total borrowings were $62.8 billion compared with $74.5 billion at
December 31, 1992. The year-end ratio of total borrowings to equity capital
was 8.0 to 1, compared with 9.0 to 1 at year-end 1992. The decrease in total
borrowings has been accomplished primarily through increased use of asset
securitization, a strategy which will continue to be monitored during 1994
to reflect market conditions and funding requirements. Approximately 80% of
borrowings represent funding for United States operations, while 20% relates
to International and Canadian operations. Germany and Canada account for 32%
and 30%, respectively, of the total non-U.S. borrowings. GMAC continued its
strategy of reducing its funding from short-term notes in 1993, with the
total of such debt amounting to $17.7 billion at December 31, 1993, as
compared with $21.0 billion at December 31, 1992. This reflects a planned
strategy to reduce liquidity risk.
Longer-term funding is provided through the sale of medium-term notes,
which are offered by prospectus worldwide on a continuous basis, and the
issuance of underwritten debt. GMAC sells medium-term notes worldwide
through dealer agents and directly to the public in either book-entry or
physical note form for any maturity ranging from nine months to thirty years.
In the U.S. and Euro markets, sales of medium-term notes totaled $5.2 billion
in 1993, compared with $9.9 billion in 1992. Medium-term notes outstanding
in the U.S. and Euro markets totaled $21.1 billion at December 31, 1993, a
decrease of $2.8 billion over the prior-year period. Underwritten debt
issues in the United States totaling $1.1 billion were completed during 1993,
compared with $3.0 billion in 1992. Total underwritten debt issues
outstanding in the U.S. at December 31, 1993, was $12.4 billion, a decrease
of $3.5 billion from year-end 1992.
Outside the United States, funding needs are met primarily by a
combination of short- and medium-term loans from banks and other financial
institutions. The Company also issues commercial paper and medium- and
long-term debt, where cost-effective, to fund certain non-U.S. operations.
During 1993, GMAC and its affiliates completed agreements to establish
syndicated bank credit facilities in the U.S. and Europe. Footnote 2 in the
Notes to Financial Statements includes a description of such facilities.
II-6
<PAGE>13
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(continued)
GMAC maintains substantial bank lines of credit and sells finance
receivables in the public market. At December 31, 1993, GMAC maintained or
had access to approximately $21.8 billion of unused credit lines with banks
worldwide, an increase of $4.6 billion from 1992. Additionally, GMAC held
approximately $7.5 billion of U.S. finance receivables considered eligible
for sale. As discussed in Note 4 in the Notes to the Financial Statements,
GMAC sold to investors retail receivables with principal balances amounting
to $13.6 billion and $12.0 billion during 1993 and 1992, respectively,
through several special purpose bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries. GMAC
continues to service sold receivables for a fee and earns other related
ongoing income. These subsidiaries generally retain a subordinated or
restricted cash interest in the total receivable pools, which are included in
other earning assets as due and deferred from receivable sales. Such
subsidiaries also retain limited recourse for credit losses in the underlying
receivables to the extent of their investments. These special purpose
subsidiaries are consolidated for financial reporting purposes, while the
transfer of underlying assets to the issuing trusts and subsequent sale of
securities to investors represents a sale for financial reporting purposes.
During 1993, New Center Asset Trust (NCAT), a special purpose entity which
issues asset-backed commercial paper, was established. NCAT enables the
Company to diversify funding sources, establish incremental liquidity, and
achieve cost savings (relative to its existing funding alternatives) by
accessing both the A-1+/P-1 and A-1/P-1 commercial paper markets. NCAT
purchases certain qualifying asset-backed securities from special purpose
subsidiaries of GMAC and finances the purchases through the issuance of
commercial paper and equity certificates, the majority of which have been
sold to unrelated third parties.
GMAC is highly reliant in the U.S. on funding generated in the capital
markets. The scope of GMAC's capability to tap the capital markets for
unsecured debt is linked to both its term debt and commercial paper ratings.
This is particularly true with respect to the Company's commercial paper
ratings. Lower ratings generally result in higher borrowing costs as well as
reduced access to capital markets. A security rating is not a recommendation
to buy, sell, or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal
at any time by the assigned rating organization. Each rating should be
evaluated independently of any other rating. As of March 10, 1994, the
agencies had assigned the following ratings to GMAC:
Medium &
Long Term Commercial
Debt Paper
--------- ----------
Duff & Phelps Credit Rating Co. A- D-1
Fitch Investors Service, Inc. A- F-1
Moody's Investor Service, Inc. Baa1 P-2
Standard & Poor's Corporation BBB+ A-2
At this date, GMAC is not under review by any of the above agencies.
Furthermore, since the most recent downgrade of GMAC's debt securities on
February 3, 1993, the Company has maintained good access to the capital
markets.
GMAC also utilizes a variety of interest rate contracts including
interest rate swaps and caps in the normal course of managing its interest
rate exposures as further described in Note 16 in the Notes to Financial
II-7

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(continued)
Statements. At December 31, 1993, the total notional amount of off-balance
sheet instruments outstanding was $8.6 billion, an increase of $4.1 billion
over 1992. This increase is due almost entirely to interest rate agreements
entered into during 1993.
CASH FLOWS
Net cash provided by operating and investing activities in 1993 totaled
$4.9 billion and $7.8 billion, respectively. Such cash flow was used to
reduce debt levels by $11.3 billion and pay dividends to General Motors
Corporation of $1.25 billion, with the net increase in cash and cash
equivalents for 1993 totaling $157.0 million. In comparison, 1992 cash
provided by operating and investing activities amounted to $5.2 billion and
$7.2 billion respectively, which was also used to reduce debt by $9.8
billion, pay dividends of $1.1 billion and increased cash and cash
equivalents by $1.5 billion.
BORROWING COSTS
An easing of short-term interest rates, which began in mid-1989,
continued throughout 1993. The U.S. bank prime rate remained at 6.0%
throughout the year, its lowest level since 1977. GMAC's cost of short-term
debt in the United States decreased during 1993, averaging 3.75%, down 35
basis points from 4.10% in 1992. Medium- and long-term money costs decreased
44 basis points from 1992 to average 7.83% for the year. The composite cost
of debt for United States operations averaged 6.51% in 1993, down from 6.75%
in the prior year. GMAC's worldwide cost of short-term debt averaged 4.86%
in 1993 compared with 5.31% in 1992, while the overall cost of funds averaged
6.94% in 1993, down 36 basis points from 7.30% recorded in the previous year.
COLLECTION RESULTS
Delinquency and repossession rates on retail and fleet leasing accounts
serviced worldwide were relatively unchanged during 1993. Accounts past due
over 30 days averaged 2.5% as a percent of accounts outstanding during 1993,
up from 2.4% in 1992. Repossessions of new vehicles averaged 1.7%, down from
2.0% a year ago, while repossessions of used vehicles declined to 2.3% from
2.5% in 1992. In total, the number of repossessed vehicles decreased to
121,000 units in 1993 from 151,000 units in 1992.
Retail losses were 0.63% of total serviced assets in 1993, down from
0.89% in 1992. Losses as a percent of total serviced assets liquidated
decreased to 0.89% in 1993 from 1.38% in 1992. Allowance for financing
losses, including the allowance for off-balance sheet sold receivables,
amounted to $855.3 million at December 31, 1993, down $158.5 million from
year-end 1992 balance. This reduction reflects a decrease in the level of
assets serviced, net transfer to non-earning assets and improved loss
experience, primarily in the U.S. At this level, the loss allowance
represented 1.2% of net serviced assets, down from 1.3% in 1992.
INSURANCE OPERATIONS
Net premiums written by Motors Insurance Corporation and its subsidiaries
totaled $1.2 billion in 1993, essentially unchanged from 1992. For the year,
MIC contributed $190.5 million to consolidated net income, down $16.6 million
from the comparable $207.1 million reported in 1992 excluding the cumulative
effect of the 1992 charge for SFAS No. 106. The year-to-year decrease
II-8
<PAGE>15
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(continued)
reflects unfavorable underwriting results, which were partially offset by
higher capital gains.
MORTGAGE OPERATIONS
GMAC Mortgage Corporation continued to be one of the leading mortgage
bankers in the United States. For the 1993 calendar year, loan origination,
purchased mortgage servicing and correspondent loan volume totaled $23.9
billion, a decrease of $4.3 billion from 1992 reflecting reduced purchased
mortgage servicing activity. At December 31, 1993, the combined mortgage
servicing portfolio, including $21.6 billion of loans master-serviced by
Residential Funding Corporation (RFC), was $53.8 billion, down $4.9 billion
from a year earlier reflecting heavy run-offs associated with high levels of
refinancing activity. RFC is a wholesale mortgage banker specializing in
securitization of jumbo mortgages and warehouse lending to its mortgage
banking customers.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Consolidated net income totaled $981.1 million in 1993, or $45.0
million above and $388.6 million below the income reported in 1992 and 1991,
respectively.
Income from financing operations, including mortgage results, totaled
$790.6 million in 1993. 1993 results were unfavorable relative to the
$1,011.6 billion earned in 1992 (excluding the $232.8 million unfavorable
impact due to the adoption of SFAS No. 106.) and to the $865.9 million
earned in 1991 (excluding a $299.1 million favorable impact of SFAS No. 109 -
Accounting for Income Taxes). The decrease from 1992 earnings is primarily
attributable to lower asset levels and tighter net interest rate margins in
North America, partially offset by higher earnings outside North America.
1992 results compared favorably with 1991 due to a special wholesale loss
provision reported in 1991.
Income from insurance operations decreased 8% to $190.5 million in 1993.
These results compare with $207.1 million in 1992 (excluding the $49.8
million unfavorable impact of SFAS No. 106) and $172.3 million in 1991
(excluding the $32.4 million favorable impact of SFAS No. 109). Income
earned in 1993, in comparison to 1992, reflects unfavorable underwriting
results, which were partially offset by higher capital gains. Insurance
operations in 1992 compared favorably to 1991, due to higher capital gains
along with improved underwriting results.
GMAC's return on equity capital was 11.9% in 1993, up from 11.1% reported
in 1992 (or down from 14.2% excluding the cumulative effect of the accounting
change) and down from 16.3% in 1991 (or down from 12.8% excluding the
cumulative effect of the accounting change). Total cash dividends paid to
General Motors Corporation in 1993 were $1.25 billion, compared with $1.1
billion in 1992 and $850 million in 1991. The year-end ratio of total
borrowings to equity capital was 8.0 to 1, compared with 9.0 to 1 and 10.0 to
1 in 1992 and 1991, respectively.
FINANCING REVENUES
Gross financing revenue totaled $8.8 billion in 1993, down $1.7 billion
from 1992 and $2.4 billion from 1991. The decrease is primarily due to lower
earning rates on a lower level of average retail receivables, partially
II-9
<PAGE>16
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(continued)
offset by an increase in leasing revenues resulting from continued growth in
operating lease activity.
Retail and lease financing revenue, at $3.7 billion for 1993, was $1.8
billion and $3.3 billion lower than 1992 and 1991 respectively. Contributing
to these declines were lower asset levels, primarily due to net asset
liquidations through the sale of retail finance receivables since December
1990. Leasing revenue reached $3.9 billion in 1993, compared to $3.5 billion
in 1992 and $2.7 billion in 1991, as leasing continues to gain consumer
acceptance. In 1993, wholesale and term loan financing revenue amounted to
$1.2 billion, compared with $1.4 billion in 1992 and $1.5 billion in 1991,
with the decrease primarily attributed to lower interest rates and lower
dealer stocks.
As a result of the continued downward trend in United States interest
rates as well as the lower level of total borrowings, interest and discount
expense decreased to $4.7 billion in 1993 from $5.8 billion reported in 1992
and $6.8 billion in 1991.
Depreciation expense on SmartLease and Direct Lease Plan vehicles,
totaled $2.7 billion in 1993, in comparison to $2.4 billion in 1992 and $1.9
billion in 1991. The increase was primarily attributable to the continued
successful marketing of the SmartLease program in the United States and
Canada.
Net pre-tax margin from financing operations after interest and discount
and depreciation expense totaled $1.3 billion in 1993, down $815.1 million
from 1992, and down $1,077.6 million from 1991. The decline reflects lower
asset levels and tightening net spreads.
Insurance premiums earned by MIC in 1993 were relatively stable and
amounted to $1.1 billion, compared with $1.2 billion in both 1992 and 1991.
Other income, primarily interest and fees earned on the financing
arrangement with General Motors Corporation, interest earned on marketable
securities, gains on the sale of receivables and ongoing servicing and other
income from receivable sales, totaled $2.6 billion for 1993, as compared to
$2.2 billion in both 1992 and 1991. The 1993 increase reflects higher
ongoing income from receivable sales, due primarily to the higher level of
serviced receivables off-balance sheet.
Pre-tax gains on sold receivables, excluding the related limited
recourse loss provision, which are recorded in other income, totaled $436.4
million during 1993 compared with $588.8 million for the previous year and
$140.3 million in 1991. Receivables sales generally accelerate the
recognition of income on retail contracts, net of servicing fees and other
related deferrals, into the period the receivables are sold. The amount of
such gains is affected by a number of factors and may create variability in
quarterly earnings depending on the type and amount of receivables sold, the
structure used to effect the sale, as well as the prevailing financial market
conditions. This acceleration results in the pre-tax gains reflected above,
and can create variability in annual earnings depending on the amount, timing
and the net margin between the average yield on and all-in-cost of the sold
receivables. The acceleration also reduces profit potential in future
periods. Although this acceleration can significantly impact quarterly or
year-to-year comparisons, it should be noted that the Company historically
II-10
<PAGE>17
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS(concluded)
recognizes approximately 70% of interest and discount revenue in the first
two years of a retail contract (reflecting the term of the underlying
contracts, revenue recognition methods and historical prepayment experience).
As such, depending on the timing of receivables sales in a given year, the
net impact on annual earnings may be substantially less than the gains
indicated.
EXPENSES
Salaries and benefits declined slightly in 1993 to $825.8 million from
$854.4 million in 1992, but increased $52.9 million from $772.9 million in
1991. The lower salary costs in 1993, when compared to 1992, were a result
of the non-recurring voluntary retirement program reflected in 1992,
partially offset by increased benefit costs primarily for retirement and
post-retirement benefits.
Operating expenses, excluding salaries and benefits, were $1.1 billion in
1993, an increase of $77.5 million from 1992 and down $11.0 million from
1991. Insurance losses and loss adjustments were $1.1 billion for 1993,
essentially unchanged from the 1992 and 1991 levels.
The provision for financing losses amounted to $300.8 million in 1993, a
decrease of $70.2 million and $747.1 million from 1992 and 1991,
respectively. The decline reflects improved year-to-year loss performance in
all segments of GMAC's business.
United States, foreign and other income taxes amounted to $591.7 million
for 1993, $290.6 million and $18.3 million less than 1992 and 1991,
respectively. The year-to-year decline primarily reflects a lower pre-tax
earnings level. The unusually high level in 1992 includes a non-recurring
state and local deferred tax adjustment.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
RESPONSIBILITIES FOR CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following consolidated financial statements of General Motors
Acceptance Corporation and subsidiaries were prepared by management, which is
responsible for their integrity and objectivity. The statements have been
prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and, as
such, include amounts based on judgments of management. Financial
information elsewhere in Part II is consistent with that in the financial
statements.
Management is further responsible for maintaining a system of internal
accounting controls, designed to provide reasonable assurance that the books
and records reflect the transactions of the companies and that its
established policies and procedures are carefully followed. Perhaps the most
important feature in the system of control is that it is continually reviewed
for its effectiveness and is augmented by written policies and guidelines,
the careful selection and training of qualified personnel and a strong
program of internal audit.
Deloitte & Touche, an independent auditing firm, is engaged to audit the
consolidated financial statements of General Motors Acceptance Corporation
and its subsidiaries and issue reports thereon. The audit is conducted in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which comprehend a
review of internal accounting controls and a test of transactions. The
Independent Auditors' Report appears on the next page. The Board of
Directors, through its Audit Committee (the "Committee"), is responsible for:
(1) assuring that management fulfills its responsibilities in the preparation
of the consolidated financial statements and (2) engaging the independent
auditors. The Committee reviews the scope of the audits and the accounting
principles being applied in financial reporting. The independent auditors,
representatives of management and the internal auditors meet regularly
(separately and jointly) with the Committee to review the activities of each,
to ensure that each is properly discharging its responsibilities and to
assess the effectiveness of the system of internal accounting controls. It
is management's conclusion that the system of internal accounting controls at
December 31, 1993, provides reasonable assurance that the books and records
reflect the transactions of the companies and that its established policies
and procedures are complied with. To ensure complete independence, Deloitte
& Touche has full and free access to meet with the Committee, without
management representatives present, to discuss the results of the audit, the
adequacy of internal accounting controls and the quality of the financial
reporting.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
General Motors Acceptance Corporation:
We have audited the Consolidated Balance Sheet of General Motors Acceptance
Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993 and 1992 and the related
Consolidated Statement of Income and Net Income Retained for Use in the
Business and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 1993. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company'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, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of General Motors Acceptance Corporation and
subsidiaries at December 31, 1993 and 1992 and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 1993, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
As discussed in Note 14, the Company changed its method of accounting for
postretirement benefits other than pensions effective January 1, 1992. As
discussed in Note 11, effective January 1, 1991, the Company also changed its
method of accounting for income taxes.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION: The consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of General Motors Acceptance Corporation and its domestic and
foreign subsidiaries (the Company).
The Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of General Motors Corporation,
was incorporated in 1919 under the New York Banking Law relating to
investment companies.
FINANCE INCOME: In the case of finance receivables in which the face amount
includes the finance charge (principally retail financing), earnings are
recorded in income over the terms of the receivables using the interest
method. On finance receivables in which the face amount represents the
principal (principally wholesale, interest-bearing financing and fleet
leasing), the interest is taken into income as earned. Certain loan
origination costs are deferred and amortized to financing revenue over the
life of the related loans using the interest method.
Income from operating leases, included in leasing revenues, is recognized
as scheduled payments become due.
SALES OF RECEIVABLES: The Company sells retail receivables through special
purpose subsidiaries which absorb all losses related to sold receivables to
the extent of their subordinated investments, as well as certain segregated
restricted cash flows. Appropriate limited recourse loss provisions
associated with sold receivables are included in the Company's provision for
financing losses. Normal servicing fees on sold receivables are earned over
time on a level yield basis.
Pre-tax gains on sold receivables are recorded in other income. In
determining the gain or loss for each qualifying sale of retail receivables,
the investment in the sold receivable pool is allocated between the portion
sold and the portion retained based on their relative fair values on the date
of sale. The receivables sold are removed from the balance sheet caption
"Finance receivable (net)", and the Company's retained interests in such
receivables are included in "Due and deferred from receivable sales (net)".
PROVISION FOR FINANCING LOSSES: An allowance for credit losses is generally
established during the period in which receivables are acquired and is
maintained in amounts considered by management to be appropriate in relation
to receivables outstanding.
Losses arising from repossession of the collateral supporting doubtful
accounts are recognized upon repossession of the collateral. Repossessed
collateral is recorded at estimated realizable value in other nonearning
assets and adjustments to the related valuation allowance are included in
operating expense. Where repossession has not been effected, losses are
charged off as soon as it is determined that the collateral cannot be
repossessed, generally not more than 150 days after default.
CASH EQUIVALENTS: Cash equivalents are defined as short-term, highly liquid
investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. Due to the short
duration of these instruments, the carrying value of cash equivalents are
assumed to approximate fair value.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
NOTE 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
RECLASSIFICATIONS: Certain amounts for prior year's financial statements have
been reclassified to conform with 1993 classifications.
INSURANCE OPERATIONS: Insurance premiums are earned on a basis related to
coverage provided over the terms of the policies (principally based on
anticipated loss experience). Commission costs and premium taxes incurred
in acquiring new business are deferred and amortized over the terms of the
related policies on the same basis as premiums are earned. Acquisition
costs associated with direct mail programs are amortized over a three year
period. The liability for losses and claims includes a provision for
unreported losses, based on past experience, net of the estimated salvage and
subrogation recoverable.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS: Intangible assets representing purchased mortgage
servicing rights are being amortized over periods that generally match future
net mortgage servicing revenues, while goodwill is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over 40 years. Amortization is applied directly to the
asset account.
DEPRECIATION: The Company and its subsidiaries provide for depreciation of
vehicles and other equipment on operating leases or in Company use generally
on a straight-line basis. The difference between the net book value and the
proceeds of sale or salvage on items disposed of is included in income as a
charge against or credit to the provision for depreciation.
PENSION PROGRAM: The Company and certain of its subsidiaries participate in
various pension plans of General Motors Corporation and its domestic and
foreign subsidiaries, which cover substantially all of their employees.
Benefits under the plans are generally related to an employee's length of
service, salary and, where applicable, contributions. GMAC Mortgage
Corporation and NAVCO Corp., two wholly-owned subsidiaries, have separate
retirement plans which provide for pension payments to their eligible
employees upon retirement.
ACCOUNTING STANDARDS: In November 1992, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
112, Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits, which established a
new accounting principle for the cost of benefits provided to former or
inactive employees after employment but before retirement. The Statement is
effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1993, with
earlier voluntary adoption encouraged. The Company intends to adopt this
Statement effective January 1, 1994. The effect of this Statement will not
be material to the financial results of the Company.
In December 1992, SFAS No. 113, Accounting and Reporting for Reinsurance
of Short-Duration and Long-Duration Contracts, which amends SFAS No. 60,
Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises, was issued by the FASB.
This statement eliminated the practice of reporting assets and liabilities
relating to reinsured contracts net of the effects of reinsurance and
required reinsurance receivables and prepaid reinsurance premiums to be
reported as assets. SFAS No. 113 applies to financial statements for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1992. The Company adopted SFAS No. 113
effective January 1, 1993 and the resultant increase in assets and
liabilities was not material to the consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
NOTE 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
In May 1993, the FASB issued SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for
Impairment of a Loan, which amends FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for
Contingencies, to clarify that a creditor should evaluate the collectibility
of both contractual interest and principal of all receivables when assessing
the need for a loss accrual. SFAS No. 114 also amends FASB Statement No.
15, Accounting by Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructurings, to
require creditors to measure all loans that are restructured in a troubled
debt restructuring involving modification of terms to reflect the time value
of money. SFAS No. 114 applies to financial statements for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1994, with earlier adoption encouraged. The
Company has not determined if it will adopt this Standard early, however,
since the Company's policy with regard to loan loss accruals generally
conforms with this Standard, adoption will have no material effect on the
consolidated financial statements.
In May 1993, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, that addresses the accounting and
reporting for investments in debt and equity securities that have readily
determinable fair values and for all investments in debt securities. These
investments are categorized as follows:
"Held-to-Maturity Securities" - debt securities that the enterprise
has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity.
Reported at amortized cost.
"Trading Securities" - debt and equity securities that are bought and
held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term.
Reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in
earnings.
"Available-for-Sale" - debt and equity securities not classified as
either held-to-maturity securities or trading securities. Reported at
fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and
reported in a separate component of stockholder's equity.
This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1993. The Company intends to adopt this Statement, which will have a
minor favorable effect (approximately $125 million) on stockholder's equity,
effective January 1, 1994.
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS: The Company is party to a variety of interest rate and
foreign exchange forward contracts (e.g., swap agreements) in the management
of its interest rate and foreign exchange exposure.
The Company enters into interest rate forward contracts as a means of
managing its interest rate exposure. The differential to be paid or received
under these agreements is accrued consistent with the terms of the agreements
and market interest rates.

NOTE 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (concluded)
In accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, the Company has provided fair value
estimates and information about valuation methodologies in various notes to
the financial statements. The estimated fair value amounts have been
determined using available market information or appropriate valuation
methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting
market data to develop estimates of fair value, so the estimates are not
necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current
market exchange. The effect of using different market assumptions and/or
estimation methodologies may materially impact the estimated fair value
amounts.
Fair value information presented herein for the years ended December 31,
1993 and 1992, is based on information available at their respective dates.
Such amounts have not been updated since those dates and, therefore,
estimates of fair value at dates subsequent to December 31, 1993 and 1992 may
differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.
NOTE 2. LINES OF CREDIT WITH BANKS
On May 19, 1993, agreements were put in place which establish four
syndicated bank credit facilities in the U.S. and Europe. The new syndicated
credit agreements replaced various individual bank credit facilities
maintained by GMAC.
In the U.S., the syndicated bank credit facilities include a four year,
$10.0 billion revolving credit facility, as well as a $5.0 billion 364-day
asset backed commercial paper liquidity and receivables credit facility to a
non-consolidated special purpose entity established to issue asset backed
commercial paper. These facilities serve primarily as back-up for GMAC's
unsecured and asset backed commercial paper programs, respectively. On
January 26, 1994, the size of the asset backed commercial paper liquidity and
receivables credit facility was increased to $8.3 billion. In Europe, the
syndicated facilities will be used as needed to fund GMAC's financing
operations in line with the Company's historical reliance on bank debt
outside the U.S. and Canada. In this regard, the syndicated facilities
include a four year, $500 million revolving credit facility to GMAC
International Finance in the Netherlands and a 400 million pound sterling
revolving credit facility to GMAC (UK) plc. In these syndicated agreements,
GMAC has agreed to a covenant such that, so long as the commitments remain in
effect or any amount is owing to any lender under such commitments, the ratio
of consolidated debt to total stockholder's equity at the last day of any
fiscal quarter shall not exceed 11.0 to 1.0. At December 31, 1993, this
ratio amounted to 8.0 to 1.0.
Inclusive of these syndicated agreements, credit facilities maintained
worldwide totaled $29,203.2 million at December 31, 1993, compared to
$26,081.4 million at December 31, 1992. Facilities available for use as
commercial paper back-up in the United States amounted to $15,000.0 million
and $12,259.3 million at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively, all of
which were unused. GMAC Mortgage had $1,255.0 million of bank lines of
credit at December 31, 1993, compared with $1,055.0 million at December 31,
1992, which are utilized in the normal course of business. Of these lines,
$480.0 million and $150.0 million were unused at December 31, 1993 and 1992,
respectively.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
NOTE 2. LINES OF CREDIT WITH BANKS (concluded)
An additional $12,948.2 million at December 31, 1993 and $12,767.1
million at December 31, 1992, in credit facilities support operations in
Canada, Europe, Latin America and Asia Pacific, of which $6,314.3 million
and $4,761.6 million were unused at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
As of December 31, 1993, the committed and uncommitted portion of such credit
facilities totaled $4,350.2 million and $8,598.0 million, respectively.
Due to the short duration of these instruments, or the floating rate
nature of the liabilities, the carrying value of lines of credit are assumed
to approximate fair value.
NOTE 3. INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES
Bonds, notes, certificates of deposit, other investments and preferred
stocks with mandatory redemption terms are carried at amortized cost. Other
stocks are carried at market (fair) value, for which the aggregate excess of
market value over cost, net of related income taxes, is included as a
separate component of stockholder's equity. The fair value of the other
financial instruments presented herein is based on quoted market prices.

NOTE 4. SALE OF FINANCE RECEIVABLES
The Company sold retail finance receivables through two special purpose
subsidiaries aggregating (in principal balance) $13.6 billion in 1993, $12.0
billion in 1992 and $3.2 billion in 1991. These subsidiaries generally
retain a subordinated investment of no greater than 9% of the total
receivables pool and market the remaining portion. The subsidiaries absorb
all losses related to sold receivables to the extent such subordinated
interests, excess cash flows or cash reserves are insufficient
to cover such losses. Pre-tax net gains on such sales (excluding limited
recourse loss provisions which are generally provided for at the time
contracts are acquired), which are recorded in "Other income", amounted to
$436.4 million in 1993, $588.8 million in 1992 and $140.3 million in 1991.
The Company continues to service these receivables for a fee. The Company's
retail instalment obligation servicing portfolio (in principal balance)
amounted to $14.9 billion, $10.9 billion and $3.6 billion at December 31,
1993, 1992 and 1991, respectively.
The Company's interest in excess servicing cash flows, subordinated
interest in trusts, cash deposits and other related amounts are generally
restricted assets and subject to the aforementioned limited recourse
provisions. The following is a summary of amounts included in "Due and
deferred from receivable sales (net)."

respectively. Excess servicing assets, net of deferred costs, have fair
values of $477.4 million and $438.6 million at December 31, 1993 and 1992,
respectively. The foregoing market valuations were derived by discounting
expected cash flows using current market rates. The fair value of cash
deposits approximates their carrying value.

The fair values of finance receivables at December 31, 1993 and 1992
were $54,906.4 million and $58,640.1 million, respectively, estimated by
discounting the future cash flows using applicable spreads to approximate
current rates applicable to each category of finance receivables. The
carrying values of wholesale receivables and other receivables whose interest
rates adjust on a short-term basis with applicable market indices (generally
the prime rate) were assumed to approximate fair value either due to their
short maturities or due to the interest rate adjustment feature.
Retail, lease financing and leasing receivable instalments past due over
30 days amounted to $79.2 million and $72.3 million at December 31, 1993 and
1992, respectively. Instalments on term loans to dealers and others past due
over 30 days aggregated $82.0 million at December 31, 1993 and $145.9 million
at December 31, 1992.
The aggregate amount of total finance receivables maturing in each of the
five years following December 31, 1993, is as follows: 1994 - $34,482.6
million; 1995 - $9,125.5 million; 1996 - $6,463.0 million; 1997 - $3,625.4

NOTE 8. NOTES, LOANS AND DEBENTURES PAYABLE WITHIN ONE YEAR (concluded)
At December 31, 1993 and 1992, the fair values of the debt portfolio
payable within one year were $35,266.4 million and $41,554.3 million,
respectively, which were determined by using quoted market prices, if
available, or calculating the estimated bond price of each bank loan, note or
debenture in the portfolio at the applicable rate in effect during December
1993. Due to the short-term duration of commercial paper, master notes and
demand notes, the carrying amount of these liabilities is considered fair
value.
Commercial paper is offered in the United States and Europe in varying
terms ranging up to 270 days. The weighted average interest rates on
commercial paper at December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991 were 3.56%, 4.47% and
5.44%, respectively. Master notes represent borrowings on a demand basis
arranged generally under agreements with trust departments of certain banks.
The weighted average interest rates on master notes at December 31, 1993,
1992 and 1991 were 3.30%, 4.18% and 4.24%, respectively. GMAC's Variable
Rate Demand Note Program is made available to employees and retirees of
General Motors Corporation and their participating subsidiaries and
affiliates, and their immediate family members, GM dealers and their
employees and affiliates, and stockholders of General Motors Corporation.
Bank loans are generally made on a demand basis. Medium-term notes are
offered in the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia in varying terms
ranging from more than nine months to thirty years. On a consolidated basis,
short-term borrowing amounts during the prior three years were as follows:
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 11. UNITED STATES, FOREIGN AND OTHER INCOME TAXES
SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which was issued by the FASB
in February 1992, required that deferred tax liabilities or assets at the end
of each period be determined using the tax rate expected to be in effect when
taxes are actually paid or recovered. Accordingly, income tax expense will
increase or decrease in the same period in which a change in tax rates is
enacted. Previous rules required that deferred taxes be established using
rates in effect when the tax asset or liability was first recorded, without
subsequent adjustment for tax-rate changes.
The Company elected to adopt this standard effective January 1, 1991. The
favorable cumulative effect as of January 1, 1991, was $331.5 million.
Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of "temporary differences"
between values recorded for assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and values utilized for measurement in accordance with tax laws.
The tax effects of the primary temporary differences giving rise to the
Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities for 1993 and 1992 are as

The Company and its domestic subsidiaries join with General Motors
Corporation in filing a consolidated United States Federal income tax return.
The portion of the consolidated tax recorded by the Company and its
subsidiaries included in the consolidated tax return generally is
equivalent to the liability that would have been incurred on a separate
return basis. Provisions are made for estimated United States and foreign
income taxes, less available tax credits and deductions, which may be
incurred on remittance of the Company's share of subsidiaries' undistributed
earnings less those deemed to be indefinitely reinvested.
Income tax provisions recorded by the Company differ from the computed
amounts developed by applying the statutory United States Federal income tax
rate to income before income taxes. The following schedule reconciles income
tax expense at the statutory rate and actual income tax expense:

NOTE 12. MORTGAGE BANKING
The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, GMAC Mortgage
Corporation (GMACM), performs mortgage banking activities which generally
consist of the origination or acquisition of mortgage loans, the sale of such
loans to investors and the continual long-term servicing of the loans. In
addition, GMACM (through a wholly-owned subsidiary) provides short-term
secured lines of credit to mortgage originators to finance mortgage loans
until such loans are purchased by permanent investors (warehouse lines). The
right to service loans is contracted under primary or master servicing
agreements. Under primary servicing agreements, GMACM collects the monthly
principal, interest and escrow payments from individual mortgagors and
performs certain investor accounting and remittance processing, escrow
disbursement and reporting and collection services. As master servicer,
GMACM collects monthly payments from various sub-servicers and performs
certain accounting and reporting functions on behalf of the mortgage
investors. The servicing portfolio and its related escrow balances are not
reflected in the Company's financial statements, since GMACM does not own the
mortgages or the related escrow balances. As compensation for such servicing
activities, GMACM earns a servicing fee.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
NOTE 12. MORTGAGE BANKING (concluded)
The fair values of real estate mortgages held for sale (including
warehouse lines) and loans held for investment approximated their carrying
values of $1,842.8 million and $172.1 million, respectively, at December 31,
1993 in comparison to $2,568.6 million and $136.4 million at December 31,
1992. The fair value of excess servicing fees, determined by discounting
net cash flows at current market rates, approximated the $89.9 million and
$71.1 million carrying values at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
The cost of purchased mortgage servicing rights acquired is capitalized
and amortized in proportion to and over the period of the projected net
servicing income. Similarly, GMACM capitalizes excess servicing fees on
the sale of certain mortgage loans to permanent investors. Excess servicing
fees represent the present value of the difference between the estimated
future servicing revenues and normal servicing revenues. The deferred charge
is amortized over the expected life of the servicing rights in proportion to
projected servicing revenues, which approximates a level yield. On certain
transactions, GMACM will retain full or limited recourse for credit or other
losses incurred by the purchaser of the loans sold. GMACM establishes
allowances for estimated future losses related to the outstanding recourse
obligations which management considers adequate. In addition, GMACM
provides appropriate loss allowances on warehouse lines and other loans held
as investments.
Following are selected financial and statistical information of GMACM as
of December 31, 1993 and 1992:

NOTE 13. PENSION PROGRAM
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries participate in various
pension plans of General Motors Corporation and its domestic and foreign
subsidiaries, which cover substantially all of their employees. Pension
expense of the Company and its subsidiaries amounted to $38.9 million in
1993, $3.4 million in 1992 and $0.6 million in 1991.
During 1992, the Company offered voluntary early retirement to certain
employees. Under the provision of SFAS No. 88, Employers' Accounting for
Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for
Termination Benefits, this early retirement opportunity resulted in a 1992
expense of $51.5 million.
NOTE 14. OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries participate in various
postretirement medical, dental, vision and life insurance plans of General
Motors Corporation. These benefits are funded as incurred from the general
assets of the Company.
In December 1990, the FASB issued SFAS No. 106, Employers' Accounting
for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions, which requires the accrual
of future retiree benefit costs over the active service period of employees
to the date of full eligibility for such benefits. The Company elected to
adopt this standard effective January 1, 1992. The unfavorable cumulative
effect of this accounting change as of January 1, 1992, was $282.6 million
(net-of-tax). The ongoing incremental impact in 1992 of SFAS No. 106
related to the previous method of recording net expense amounted to $18.1
million after tax. Prior years financial statements have not been restated.
The Company has disclosed in the financial statements certain amounts
associated with estimated future postretirement benefits other than pensions
and characterized such amounts as "accumulated postretirement benefit
obligations," "liabilities" or "obligations." Notwithstanding the recording
of such amounts and the use of these terms, the Company does not admit or
otherwise acknowledge that such amounts or existing postretirement benefit
plans of the Company (other than pensions) represent legally enforceable
liabilities of the Company.
The total non-pension postretirement benefits expense of the Company,
other than the cumulative effect of adopting SFAS No. 106, on a pre-tax
basis amounted to $65.8 million and $51.4 million in 1993 and 1992,
respectively, and included the components set forth below:
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
(in millions of dollars) December 31 1993 1992

NOTE 15. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Under special rate programs sponsored by General Motors, an interest rate
differential is received. These payments are included in unearned income and
are recognized over the life of the related contracts. The earned portion of
such payments constituted 6.1% of gross revenue in 1993, compared with 5.1%
in 1992 and 3.6% in 1991.
Over the periods ended December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991, the Company,
under a financing agreement, extended loans to General Motors Corporation up
to a maximum of $17 billion. Loans under the agreement were provided at
floating market rates to General Motors when it assumed part of the dealer
inventory financing previously provided by the Company. GMAC serviced all
such receivables for General Motors for a fee. The financing agreement
ensured that GMAC's ongoing funding activities continued to return to GMAC
the approximate amount of interest and fees it would have earned had it
retained the dealer inventory financing. The amount of interest and fees
under this agreement, which are included in other income for the years ended
December 31, 1993, 1992 and 1991 were $604.4 million, $662.7 million and
$972.6 million, respectively, and the interest rates were 6.0% at December
31, 1993 and 1992 and 6.5% at December 31, 1991. The carrying value of these
receivables approximates fair value.
As of December 1, 1993, the Company resumed the financing of wholesale
receivables previously owned by General Motors. The aforementioned
financing agreement has been terminated.
The amounts due General Motors Corporation and affiliated companies
relate principally to wholesale financing of sales of General Motors
products. To the extent that wholesale settlements with General Motors are
made in advance of transit time (which may occur from time-to-time due to
seasonal or other factors), interest is received from General Motors.
During 1993, the Company purchased certain vehicles which General Motors
acquired from its fleet and rental customers. The cost of these vehicles
held for resale, which is included in other earning assets, was $607.7
million at December 31, 1993, compared with $1,056.9 million at December 31,
1992.
From time to time, the Company and one of its subsidiaries have made
interest-bearing loans to National Car Rental Systems, Inc. (NCRS), a
consolidated subsidiary of General Motors Corporation since December 31,
1992. Effective December 31, 1992, $1.5 billion of GMAC earnings assets
relating to NCRS, previously reflected in finance receivables, were
reclassified to Receivables from General Motors Corporation. The Company
also extends loans to other GM subsidiaries and affiliates. At December 31,
1993 and 1992, $1,355.5 million and $1,938.2 million, respectively, of such
loans (including NCRS) were outstanding. The fair values of these loans at
December 31, 1993 and 1992, were $1,382.8 million and $1,976.1 million,
respectively.
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries lease capital equipment to
various units of General Motors in the ordinary course of business. At
December 31, 1993 and 1992, leasing receivables relating to such leases
amounted to $5.4 million and $14.0 million, respectively.

NOTE 15. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES (concluded)
The Company purchases data processing and communications services from
Electronic Data Systems Corporation, a subsidiary of General Motors
Corporation. Such purchases, which are included in operating expenses,
amounted to $272.5 million in 1993, compared with $266.6 million in 1992 and
$260.6 million in 1991.
Insurance premiums earned in 1993, 1992 and 1991 include $322.1 million,
$390.8 million and $486.7 million, respectively, earned by Motors Insurance
Corporation on certain insurance coverages provided to General Motors.
NOTE 16. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND
CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
GMAC utilizes a variety of interest rate contracts including interest
rate swaps and caps in the normal course of managing its interest rate
exposures.
Interest rate swaps are contractual agreements between the Company and
another party to exchange the net difference between a fixed and floating
interest rate over the life of the contract without the exchange of the
underlying principal amount. The Company uses swaps as part of its ongoing
interest rate management program. As such, the majority of swaps are
executed as an integral element of a specific debt transaction. In a
limited number of cases, swaps are executed on a portfolio basis to achieve
specific interest rate management objectives. The differential paid or
received on such swaps is recorded as an adjustment to interest expense over
the term of the underlying debt agreement.
Interest rate cap agreements provide the holder protection against
interest rate movements above the established rate. In exchange for assuming
this risk, the writer receives a premium at the outset of the agreement.
The Company also utilizes foreign exchange agreements to manage its
exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations. In this regard, currency
swaps and forward foreign exchange contracts are used to hedge foreign
exchange exposure on foreign currency denominated debt by converting the
funding currency to the currency of the assets being financed. As such,
these currency swaps and foreign exchange contracts include agreements to
purchase or sell specific amounts of foreign currencies at specific rates on
specific future dates.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (concluded)
NOTE 16. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND
CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK (continued)
The Company does not require nor place collateral for any off-balance
sheet financial instruments, except to require collateral for interest rate
futures and lines of credit. At December 31, 1993 and 1992, the total
notional amount of off-balance-sheet instruments and the unrealized gains
and losses associated with these instruments were as follows:
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
(in millions of dollars) December 31, 1993 December 31, 1992
Notional Unrealized Notional Unrealized
Amount Gain/(Loss) Amount Gain/(Loss)
- ------------------------------ ---------- ----------- ----------- -----------
Interest rate instruments .... $ 7,059.0 $ 26.4 $ 3,585.6 $ (7.5)
Currency instruments ......... 1,564.9 (3.3) 957.4 65.3
---------- ----------- ---------- -----------
Total ........................ $ 8,623.9 $ 23.1 $ 4,543.0 $ 57.8
========== =========== =========== ===========
In addition, the Company's mortgage subsidiary has commitments to sell
mortgages or mortgage-backed securities at December 31, 1993 and 1992,
comprised of mandatory delivery contracts with investors totaling $2,139.0
million and $2,065.4 million, respectively. Also outstanding at December 31,
1993 and 1992, were commitments to purchase/fund first mortgage loans at
fixed prices totaling $1,795.6 million and $1,187.8 million, respectively.
These aforementioned instruments contain an element of risk in the event
the counterparties are unable to meet the terms of the agreements. In such
an event, the cost to the Company to replace the positions at market rates
in effect on December 31, 1993 would be $83.1 million, compared to $67.3
million at December 31, 1992. However, the Company minimizes the risk
exposure by limiting the counterparties to those major banks and financial
institutions who meet established credit guidelines. Management does not
expect any counterparty to default on its obligations and, therefore, does
not expect to incur any cost due to counterparty default.
The Company has granted revolving lines of credit to dealers with unused
amounts of $301.1 million and $458.1 million at December 31, 1993 and 1992,
respectively. Commitments supported by collateral, generally dealer
inventories and real estate, were approximately 44% and 55% of the contract
amounts at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively. The unused amount of
warehouse lending revolving credit lines amounted to $1,081.7 million and
$1,146.1 million at December 31, 1993 and 1992, respectively.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company's primary business is to provide vehicle financing for GM
products and GM dealers. Wholesale and dealer loan financing relates
primarily to GM dealers, with collateral primarily GM vehicles (for
wholesale) and GM dealership property (for loans). In wholesale financing,
GMAC is also provided further protection by GM factory repurchase programs.
Retail contracts and operating lease assets relate primarily to the secured
sale and lease, respectively, of vehicles (primarily GM).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (concluded)
NOTE 16. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND
CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK (concluded)
Automotive lease financing represents a concentration inasmuch as 19
customers comprised over 50% of the total $2.1 billion U.S. balance at
December 31, 1993. A significant portion of these receivables are also
protected by various GM factory support programs, programs that afford GMAC
protection against loss under certain specified circumstances and with
limitations.
In terms of geographic concentrations as of December 31, 1993, 76.8% of
GMAC's consolidated financing assets were U.S. based; 6.4% were in Canada;
13.8% were in Europe (of which 8.0% reside in Germany); 1.2% were in Latin
America; and 1.8% were in Asia Pacific (of which Australia represents 1.5%).
Reflecting general U.S. population patterns and GM sales activities, GMAC's
five largest U.S. state concentrations, which in aggregate total 37.4% of
U.S. financing assets, are as follows: 8.9% in Texas; 8.4% in California;
7.2% in New York; 6.6% in Florida; and 6.3% in Michigan.
NOTE 17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Minimum future commitments under operating leases having noncallable
lease terms in excess of one year, primarily for real property, aggregating
$162.2 million, are payable $51.3 million in 1994, $41.0 million in 1995,
$29.2 million in 1996, $17.7 million in 1997, $10.0 million in 1998 and $13.0
million in 1999 and thereafter. Certain of the leases contain escalation
clauses and renewal or purchase options. Rental expenses under operating
leases were $55.4 million in 1993, $56.3 million in 1992 and $53.1 million in
1991.
There are various claims and pending actions against the Company and its
subsidiaries with respect to commercial and consumer financing matters, taxes
and other matters arising out of the conduct of the business. Certain of
these actions are or purport to be class actions, seeking damages in very
large amounts. The amounts of liability on these claims and actions at
December 31, 1993, were not determinable but, in the opinion of management,
the ultimate liability resulting should not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's consolidated financial position.
