Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation
	References herein to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “Xerox” refer to Xerox Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries unless the context suggests otherwise.
	We have prepared the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with the accounting policies described in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K (2014 Annual Report), and the interim reporting requirements of Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in our annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. You should read these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2014 Annual Report.
	In our opinion, all adjustments which are necessary for a fair statement of financial position, operating results and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been made. These adjustments consist of normal recurring items. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of the full year.
	For convenience and ease of reference, we refer to the financial statement caption “Income before Income Taxes and Equity Income” as “pre-tax income.”
	In December 2014 we announced an agreement to sell our Information Technology Outsourcing (ITO) business to Atos SE (Atos); the sale is expected to close in the second quarter 2015. As a result of the pending sale and having met applicable accounting requirements, we reported the ITO business as held for sale and a discontinued operation at December 31, 2014. In 2014 we also completed the disposal of two smaller businesses - Xerox Audio Visual Solutions, Inc. (XAV) and Truckload Management Services (TMS) - that were also reported as discontinued operations. All prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of these businesses as discontinued operations. Refer to Note 5 - Divestitures for additional information regarding discontinued operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	Except for the Accounting Standard Updates (ASU's) discussed below, the new ASU's issued by the FASB during the last year did not have any significant impact on the Company.
	Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal Use Software: In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal Use Software. The update provides guidance on fees paid by an entity in a cloud computing arrangement and whether an arrangement includes a license to the underlying software. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the entity should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the entity should account for the arrangement as a service contract. The guidance in this update does not change GAAP for an entity's accounting for service contracts. Additionally, this update does not change the accounting guidance for a provider of cloud computing services. This update is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
	Interest: In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. The update requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. Debt issuance costs are currently reported as a deferred charge in Other long-term asset and were $34 at March 31, 2015. This update is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
	Consolidation: In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. This update reduces the number of consolidation models by changing the evaluation of (a) limited partnerships and similar entities, (b) whether fees paid to a decision maker or service provider that are variable interests in a variable interest entity, and (c) variable interests in a VIE held by related parties. This update is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016 with early adoption permitted, and is applied on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
	Income Statement: In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01 Income Statement-Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20) - Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items. ASU 2015-01 eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. ASU 2015-01 is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The standard primarily involves presentation and disclosure and, therefore, is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
	Derivatives and Hedging: In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is More Akin to Debt or to Equity. ASU 2014-16 does not change the current criteria in GAAP for determining when separation of certain embedded derivative features in a hybrid financial instrument is required. The amendments clarify how current GAAP should be interpreted in evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in the form of a share. ASU 2014-16 is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
	Disclosures of Going Concern Uncertainties: In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40); Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 provides guidance regarding management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
	Stock Compensation: In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide that a Performance Target Could be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. ASU 2014-12 requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant date fair value of the award. This update is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2016 and early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
	Revenue Recognition: In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), to supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under existing U.S. GAAP, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 is effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2017 using either of two methods: (i) retrospective to each prior reporting period presented with the option to elect certain practical expedients as defined within ASU 2014-09; or (ii) retrospective with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application and providing certain additional disclosures as defined per ASU 2014-09. We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements.
	Discontinued Operations: In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The update changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations in Subtopic 205-20. A discontinued operation may include a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity, or a business. A disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. Examples include a disposal of a major geographic area, a major line of business or a major equity method investment.
	Additionally, the update requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of discontinued operations. This update was effective prospectively for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2015. The standard primarily involves presentation and disclosure and, therefore, is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
	Service Concession Arrangements: In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-05, Service Concession Arrangements (Topic 853). This update specifies that an entity should not account for a service concession arrangement within the scope of this update as a lease in accordance with Topic 840, Leases. The update does not provide specific accounting guidance for various aspects of service concession arrangements but rather indicates that an entity should refer to other Topics as applicable to account for various aspects of a service concession arrangement. The update was effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2015. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operation or cash flows.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Reporting	Segment Reporting
	Our reportable segments are aligned with how we manage the business and view the markets we serve. We report our financial performance based on the following two primary reportable segments – Services and Document Technology. Our Services segment operations involve delivery of a broad range of services, including business process and document outsourcing. Our Document Technology segment includes the sale and support of a broad range of document systems from entry level to high-end.
	The Services segment is comprised of two outsourcing service offerings:
	•	Business Process Outsourcing (BPO)
	•	Document Outsourcing (which includes Managed Print Services) (DO)
	Business process outsourcing services include service arrangements where we manage a customer’s business activity or process. We provide multi-industry offerings such as customer care, transaction processing, finance and accounting, and human resources, as well as industry-focused offerings in areas such as healthcare, transportation, financial services, retail and telecommunications. Document outsourcing services include service arrangements that allow customers to streamline, simplify and digitize document-intensive business processes through automation and deployment of software applications and tools and the management of their printing needs. Document outsourcing services also include revenues from our partner print services offerings.
	Our Document Technology segment includes the sale of products that share common technology, manufacturing and product platforms. Our products groupings range from:
	•	“Entry,” which includes A4 devices and desktop printers; to
	•	“Mid-range,” which includes A3 devices that generally serve workgroup environments in midsize to large enterprises and includes products that fall into the following market categories: Color 41+ ppm priced at less than $100K and Light Production 91+ ppm priced at less than $100K; to
	•	“High-end,” which includes production printing and publishing systems that generally serve the graphic communications marketplace and large enterprises.
	Customers range from small and mid-sized businesses to large enterprises. Customers also include graphic communication enterprises as well as channel partners including distributors and resellers. Segment revenues reflect the sale of document systems and supplies, technical services and product financing.
	The segment classified as Other includes several units, none of which meet the thresholds for separate segment reporting. This group includes paper sales in our developing market countries, Wide Format Systems, licensing revenues, Global Imaging Systems (GIS) network integration solutions and electronic presentation systems, non-allocated corporate items including non-financing interest and other items included in Other expenses, net.

Acquisitions	Acquisitions
	In January 2015, we acquired Intrepid Learning Solutions, Inc. (Intrepid), a Seattle-based company, for $28 in cash. Intrepid provides outsourced learning services primarily in the aerospace manufacturing and technology industries. The acquisition of Intrepid will solidify the position of Xerox's Learning Services unit as a leading provider of end-to-end outsourced learning services, and adds key vertical market expertise in the aerospace industry. Intrepid is included in our Services segment.
	The operating results of this acquisition are not material to our financial statements and are included within our results from the acquisition date. The purchase price has initially been allocated primarily to goodwill based on preliminary third-party valuations and management’s estimates. These estimated values are not yet finalized and are subject to change. We will finalize the amounts recognized as we obtain the information necessary to complete the analysis.

	Information Technology Outsourcing (ITO)
	In December 2014 we announced an agreement to sell our ITO business to Atos for $1,050. The final sales price is subject to closing balance sheet related adjustments as well as the potential for additional consideration of $50 contingent on the condition of certain assets at closing. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approval and is expected to close in the second quarter 2015.
	As a result of this pending transaction and having met applicable accounting requirements, we are reporting the ITO business (disposal group) as held for sale and a Discontinued Operation.
	In fourth quarter 2014, we recorded a net pre-tax loss of $181 related to the pending sale, reflecting the write-down of the carrying value of the ITO disposal group, inclusive of goodwill, to its estimated fair value less costs to sell. In first quarter 2015, we recorded an additional net pre-tax loss of $4 related to the adjustment of estimates regarding asset values and related expenses associated with the disposal. In addition, upon final disposal of the business, we expect to record additional tax expense of approximately $75 within Discontinued Operations primarily related to the difference between the book basis and tax basis of allocated goodwill. All of the assets and liabilities of the ITO business are reported as held for sale at March 31, 2015 and are included in Assets and Liabilities of Discontinued Operations, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2015.
	Other Discontinued Operations:
	Other discontinued operations includes the 2014 closure of Xerox Audio Visual Solutions, Inc. (XAV) and the 2014 sale of our Truckload Management Services, Inc. (TMS) business.
	Summarized financial information for our Discontinued Operations is as follows:

The allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable is determined principally on the basis of past collection experience, as well as consideration of current economic conditions and changes in our customer collection trends.
	Accounts Receivable Sales Arrangements
	Accounts receivable sales arrangements are utilized in the normal course of business as part of our cash and liquidity management. We have facilities in the U.S., Canada and several countries in Europe that enable us to sell certain accounts receivable without recourse to third-parties. The accounts receivable sold are generally short-term trade receivables with payment due dates of less than 60 days.
	All of our arrangements involve the sale of our entire interest in groups of accounts receivable for cash. In most instances a portion of the sales proceeds are held back by the purchaser and payment is deferred until collection of the related receivables sold. Such holdbacks are not considered legal securities nor are they certificated. We report collections on such receivables as operating cash flows in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows because such receivables are the result of an operating activity and the associated interest rate risk is de minimis due to its short-term nature. Our risk of loss following the sales of accounts receivable is limited to the outstanding deferred purchase price receivable. These receivables are included in the caption “Other current assets” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and were $63 and $73 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
	Under most of the arrangements, we continue to service the sold accounts receivable. When applicable, a servicing liability is recorded for the estimated fair value of the servicing. The amounts associated with the servicing liability were not material.
	Of the accounts receivable sold and derecognized from our balance sheet, $563 and $580 remained uncollected as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
	Accounts receivable sales were as follows:
		Three Months Ended
		March 31,
		2015				2014
	Accounts receivable sales	$	602			$	822
	Deferred proceeds	62				124

	Finance Receivables, Net
	Sale of Finance Receivables
	In 2013 and 2012, we transferred our entire interest in certain groups of lease finance receivables to third-party entities for cash proceeds and beneficial interests. The transfers were accounted for as sales with derecognition of the associated lease receivables. There were no finance receivable transfers in the three months ended March 31, 2015 or the year ending December 31, 2014. We continue to service the sold receivables and record servicing fee income over the expected life of the associated receivables.
	The following is a summary of our prior sales activity - there were no sales in 2015 or 2014:
			Year Ended December 31,
			2013				2012
	Net carrying value (NCV) sold		$	676			$	682
	Allowance included in NCV		17				18
	Cash proceeds received		635				630
	Beneficial interests received		86				101
	Pre-tax gain on sales		40				44
	Net fees and expenses		5				5
	The principal value of finance receivables derecognized from our balance sheet was $450 and $549 (sales value of approximately $487 and $596) at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
	Summary
	The lease portfolios transferred and sold were all from our Document Technology segment, and the gains on these sales were reported in Financing revenues within the Document Technology segment. The ultimate purchaser has no recourse to our other assets for the failure of customers to pay principal and interest when due beyond our beneficial interests, which were $66 and $77 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, and are included in Other current assets and Other long-term assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Beneficial interests of $56 and $64 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, are held by bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries and therefore are not available to satisfy any of our creditor obligations. We report collections on the beneficial interests as operating cash flows in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows because such beneficial interests are the result of an operating activity, and the associated interest rate risk is de minimis considering their weighted average lives of less than 2 years.
	The net impact from the sales of finance receivables on operating cash flows is summarized below:

	Finance Receivables – Allowance for Credit Losses and Credit Quality
	Finance receivables include sales-type leases, direct financing leases and installment loans. Our finance receivable portfolios are primarily in the U.S., Canada and Europe. We generally establish customer credit limits and estimate the allowance for credit losses on a country or geographic basis. Our policy and methodology used to establish our allowance for doubtful accounts has been consistently applied over all periods presented.
	The following table is a rollforward of the allowance for doubtful finance receivables as well as the related investment in finance receivables:

We evaluate our customers based on the following credit quality indicators:
•	Investment grade: This rating includes accounts with excellent to good business credit, asset quality and the capacity to meet financial obligations. These customers are less susceptible to adverse effects due to shifts in economic conditions or changes in circumstance. The rating generally equates to a Standard & Poors (S&P) rating of BBB- or better. Loss rates in this category are normally minimal at less than 1%.
•	Non-investment grade: This rating includes accounts with average credit risk that are more susceptible to loss in the event of adverse business or economic conditions. This rating generally equates to a BB S&P rating. Although we experience higher loss rates associated with this customer class, we believe the risk is somewhat mitigated by the fact that our leases are fairly well dispersed across a large and diverse customer base. In addition, the higher loss rates are largely offset by the higher rates of return we obtain on such leases. Loss rates in this category are generally in the range of 2% to 4%.
•	Substandard: This rating includes accounts that have marginal credit risk such that the customer’s ability to make repayment is impaired or may likely become impaired. We use numerous strategies to mitigate risk including higher rates of interest, prepayments, personal guarantees, etc. Accounts in this category include customers who were downgraded during the term of the lease from investment and non-investment grade status when the lease was originated. Accordingly, there is a distinct possibility for a loss of principal and interest or customer default. The loss rates in this category are around 10%.
Credit quality indicators are updated at least annually and the credit quality of any given customer can change during the life of the portfolio. Details about our finance receivables portfolio based on industry and credit quality indicators are as follows:
	March 31, 2015																December 31, 2014

	Unbilled amounts include amounts associated with percentage-of-completion accounting and other earned revenues not currently billable due to contractual provisions. Amounts to be invoiced in the subsequent month for current services provided are included in amounts billable, and at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were approximately $933 and $945, respectively.
	We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits based upon customer payment history and current creditworthiness. The allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable is determined principally on the basis of past collection experience, as well as consideration of current economic conditions and changes in our customer collection trends.

	Sale of Finance Receivables
	In 2013 and 2012, we transferred our entire interest in certain groups of lease finance receivables to third-party entities for cash proceeds and beneficial interests. The transfers were accounted for as sales with derecognition of the associated lease receivables. There were no finance receivable transfers in the three months ended March 31, 2015 or the year ending December 31, 2014. We continue to service the sold receivables and record servicing fee income over the expected life of the associated receivables.
	The following is a summary of our prior sales activity - there were no sales in 2015 or 2014:
			Year Ended December 31,

	Net carrying value (NCV) sold		$	676			$	682

	The principal value of finance receivables derecognized from our balance sheet was $450 and $549 (sales value of approximately $487 and $596) at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
	Summary
	The lease portfolios transferred and sold were all from our Document Technology segment, and the gains on these sales were reported in Financing revenues within the Document Technology segment. The ultimate purchaser has no recourse to our other assets for the failure of customers to pay principal and interest when due beyond our beneficial interests, which were $66 and $77 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, and are included in Other current assets and Other long-term assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Beneficial interests of $56 and $64 at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, are held by bankruptcy-remote subsidiaries and therefore are not available to satisfy any of our creditor obligations. We report collections on the beneficial interests as operating cash flows in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows because such beneficial interests are the result of an operating activity, and the associated interest rate risk is de minimis considering their weighted average lives of less than 2 years.

	Finance Receivables – Allowance for Credit Losses and Credit Quality
	Finance receivables include sales-type leases, direct financing leases and installment loans. Our finance receivable portfolios are primarily in the U.S., Canada and Europe. We generally establish customer credit limits and estimate the allowance for credit losses on a country or geographic basis. Our policy and methodology used to establish our allowance for doubtful accounts has been consistently applied over all periods presented.
	The following table is a rollforward of the allowance for doubtful finance receivables as well as the related investment in finance receivables:

We evaluate our customers based on the following credit quality indicators:
•	Investment grade: This rating includes accounts with excellent to good business credit, asset quality and the capacity to meet financial obligations. These customers are less susceptible to adverse effects due to shifts in economic conditions or changes in circumstance. The rating generally equates to a Standard & Poors (S&P) rating of BBB- or better. Loss rates in this category are normally minimal at less than 1%.
•	Non-investment grade: This rating includes accounts with average credit risk that are more susceptible to loss in the event of adverse business or economic conditions. This rating generally equates to a BB S&P rating. Although we experience higher loss rates associated with this customer class, we believe the risk is somewhat mitigated by the fact that our leases are fairly well dispersed across a large and diverse customer base. In addition, the higher loss rates are largely offset by the higher rates of return we obtain on such leases. Loss rates in this category are generally in the range of 2% to 4%.
•	Substandard: This rating includes accounts that have marginal credit risk such that the customer’s ability to make repayment is impaired or may likely become impaired. We use numerous strategies to mitigate risk including higher rates of interest, prepayments, personal guarantees, etc. Accounts in this category include customers who were downgraded during the term of the lease from investment and non-investment grade status when the lease was originated. Accordingly, there is a distinct possibility for a loss of principal and interest or customer default. The loss rates in this category are around 10%.
Credit quality indicators are updated at least annually and the credit quality of any given customer can change during the life of the portfolio. Details about our finance receivables portfolio based on industry and credit quality indicators are as follows:

	Interest Rate Risk Management
	We use interest rate swap agreements to manage our interest rate exposure and to achieve a desired proportion of variable and fixed rate debt. These derivatives may be designated as fair value hedges or cash flow hedges depending on the nature of the risk being hedged.
	Fair Value Hedges
	As of March 31, 2015, pay variable/receive fixed interest rate swaps with notional amounts of $300 and net asset fair value of $9 were designated and accounted for as fair value hedges. The swaps were structured to hedge the fair value of related debt by converting them from fixed rate instruments to variable rate instruments.
	The following is a summary of our fair value hedges at March 31, 2015:
	Debt Instrument		Year First Designated		Notional Amount				Net Fair Value			Weighted Average Interest Rate Paid		Interest Rate Received		Basis	Maturity
	Senior Note 2021		2014		$	300			$	9		2.43	%	4.5	%	Libor	2021
	Foreign Exchange Risk Management
	We are a global company that is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the normal course of our business. As a part of our foreign exchange risk management strategy, we use derivative instruments, primarily forward contracts and purchased option contracts, to hedge the following foreign currency exposures, thereby reducing volatility of earnings or protecting fair values of assets and liabilities:
	•	Foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities
	•	Forecasted purchases and sales in foreign currency
	Summary of Foreign Exchange Hedging Positions
	At March 31, 2015, we had outstanding forward exchange and purchased option contracts with gross notional values of $2,894, which is reflective of the amounts that are normally outstanding at any point during the year. Approximately 67% of these contracts mature within three months, 9% in three to six months, 23% in six to twelve months, and 1% in more than twelve months.
	The following is a summary of the primary hedging positions and corresponding fair values as of March 31, 2015:
	Currency Hedged (Buy/Sell)	Gross				Fair  Value
		Notional				Asset
		Value				(Liability)(1)

	Foreign Currency Cash Flow Hedges
	We designate a portion of our foreign currency derivative contracts as cash flow hedges of our foreign currency-denominated inventory purchases, sales and expenses. The net liability fair value of these contracts was $2 and $30 as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
	Summary of Derivative Instruments Fair Value
	The following table provides a summary of the fair value amounts of our derivative instruments:

	Summary of Derivative Instruments Gains (Losses)
	Derivative gains (losses) affect the income statement based on whether such derivatives are designated as hedges of underlying exposures. The following is a summary of derivative gains (losses).
	Designated Derivative Instruments Gains (Losses)
	The following table provides a summary of gains (losses) on derivative instruments:
			Three Months Ended

Cash Flow Hedges - Foreign exchange forward contracts and options
Derivative gain recognized in OCI (effective portion)		$	31			$	18
Derivative loss reclassified from AOCI to income - Cost of sales (effective portion)		(10		)		(21		)
During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014, no amount of ineffectiveness was recorded in earnings for these designated cash flow hedges and all components of each derivative’s gain (loss) was included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness. In addition, no amount was recorded for an underlying exposure that did not occur or was not expected to occur.
At March 31, 2015, a net after-tax gain of $7 was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss associated with our cash flow hedging activity. The entire balance is expected to be reclassified into net income within the next 12 months, providing an offsetting economic impact against the underlying anticipated transactions.
Non-Designated Derivative Instruments Gains (Losses)
Non-designated derivative instruments are primarily instruments used to hedge foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities. They are not designated as hedges since there is a natural offset for the re-measurement of the underlying foreign currency-denominated asset or liability.
The following table provides a summary of gains on non-designated derivative instruments:
Derivatives NOT Designated as Hedging Instruments				Three Months Ended

		Location of Derivative Gain (Loss)		2015				2014
Foreign exchange contracts – forwards		Other expense – Currency gains, net		$	15			$	—
Net currency gains and losses are included in Other expenses, net and include the mark-to-market adjustments of the derivatives not designated as hedging instruments and the related cost of those derivatives as well as the re-measurement of foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and March 31, 2014, currency losses, net were $6 and $1, respectively.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities	Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities
	The following table represents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The basis for the measurement at fair value in all cases is Level 2 – Significant Other Observable Inputs.
		March 31, 2015		December 31, 2014
	Assets:
	Foreign exchange contracts - forwards	$	43	$	20
	Foreign currency options	5		2

	Deferred compensation investments in cash surrender life insurance	97		94
	Deferred compensation investments in mutual funds	34		32
	Total	$	188	$	153
	Liabilities:
	Foreign exchange contracts - forwards	$	31	$	58
	Deferred compensation plan liabilities	141		135
	Total	$	172	$	193
	We utilize the income approach to measure the fair value for our derivative assets and liabilities. The income approach uses pricing models that rely on market observable inputs such as yield curves, currency exchange rates and forward prices, and therefore are classified as Level 2.
	Fair value for our deferred compensation plan investments in Company-owned life insurance is reflected at cash surrender value. Fair value for our deferred compensation plan investments in mutual funds is based on quoted market prices for actively traded investments similar to those held by the plan. Fair value for deferred compensation plan liabilities is based on the fair value of investments corresponding to employees’ investment selections, based on quoted prices for similar assets in actively traded markets.
	Summary of Other Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
	The estimated fair values of our other financial assets and liabilities not measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows:
		March 31, 2015				December 31, 2014
		Carrying		Fair		Carrying		Fair
		Amount		Value		Amount		Value
	Cash and cash equivalents	$	872	$	872	$	1,411	$	1,411
	Accounts receivable, net	2,721		2,721		2,652		2,652
	Short-term debt	1,333		1,363		1,427		1,417
	Long-term debt	6,265		6,637		6,314		6,719
	The fair value amounts for Cash and cash equivalents and Accounts receivable, net approximate carrying amounts due to the short maturities of these instruments. The fair value of Short and Long-term debt was estimated based on quoted market prices for publicly-traded securities or on the current rates offered to us for debt of similar maturities. The difference between the fair value and the carrying value represents the theoretical net premium or discount we would pay or receive to retire all debt at such date.

Contingencies and Litigation	3 Months Ended

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Contingencies and Litigation	Contingencies and Litigation
	Legal Matters
	As more fully discussed below, we are involved in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations and proceedings concerning securities law, intellectual property law, environmental law, employment law and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). We determine whether an estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. We assess our potential liability by analyzing our litigation and regulatory matters using available information. We develop our views on estimated losses in consultation with outside counsel handling our defense in these matters, which involves an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. Should developments in any of these matters cause a change in our determination as to an unfavorable outcome and result in the need to recognize a material accrual, or should any of these matters result in a final adverse judgment or be settled for significant amounts, they could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial position in the period or periods in which such change in determination, judgment or settlement occurs.
	Brazil Tax and Labor Contingencies
	Our Brazilian operations are involved in various litigation matters and have received or been the subject of numerous governmental assessments related to indirect and other taxes, as well as disputes associated with former employees and contract labor. The tax matters, which comprise a significant portion of the total contingencies, principally relate to claims for taxes on the internal transfer of inventory, municipal service taxes on rentals, gross revenue taxes and import taxes and duties. We are disputing these tax matters and intend to vigorously defend our position. Based on the opinion of legal counsel and current reserves for those matters deemed probable of loss, we do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will materially impact our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The labor matters principally relate to claims made by former employees and contract labor for the equivalent payment of all social security and other related labor benefits, as well as consequential tax claims, as if they were regular employees.
	As of March 31, 2015, the total amounts related to the unreserved portion of the tax and labor contingencies, inclusive of any related interest, amounted to approximately $699, with the decrease from December 31, 2014 balance of approximately $817 primarily related to currency partially offset by interest. With respect to the unreserved balance of $699, the majority has been assessed by management as being remote as to the likelihood of ultimately resulting in a loss to the Company. In connection with the above proceedings, customary local regulations may require us to make escrow cash deposits or post other security of up to half of the total amount in dispute. As of March 31, 2015, we had $104 of escrow cash deposits for matters we are disputing, and there are liens on certain Brazilian assets with a net book value of $15 and additional letters of credit of approximately $209, which include associated indexation. Generally, any escrowed amounts would be refundable and any liens would be removed to the extent the matters are resolved in our favor. We routinely assess all these matters as to probability of ultimately incurring a liability against our Brazilian operations and record our best estimate of the ultimate loss in situations where we assess the likelihood of an ultimate loss as probable.
	Litigation Against the Company
	State of Texas v. Xerox Corporation, Xerox State Healthcare, LLC, and ACS State Healthcare, LLC, a Xerox Corporation: On May 9, 2014, the State of Texas, via the Texas Office of Attorney General (the “State”), filed a lawsuit in the 53rd Judicial District Court of Travis County, Texas. The lawsuit alleges that Xerox Corporation, Xerox State Healthcare, LLC and ACS State Healthcare (collectively “Xerox” or the "Company”) violated the Texas Medicaid Fraud Prevention Act in the administration of its contract with the Texas Department of Health and Human Services (“HHSC”). The State alleges that the Company made false representations of material facts regarding the processes, procedures, implementation and results regarding the prior authorization of orthodontic claims. The State seeks recovery of actual damages, two times the amount of any overpayments made as a result of unlawful acts, civil penalties, pre- and post-judgment interest and all costs and attorneys’ fees. The State references the amount in controversy as exceeding hundreds of millions of dollars. Xerox filed its Answer in June, 2014 denying all allegations. Xerox will continue to vigorously defend itself in this matter. We do not believe it is probable that we will incur a material loss in excess of the amount accrued for this matter. In the course of litigation, we periodically engage in discussions with plaintiff’s counsel for possible resolution of the matter. Should developments cause a change in our determination as to an unfavorable outcome, or result in a final adverse judgment or settlement for a significant amount, there could be a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial position in the period in which such change in determination, judgment or settlement occurs.
	Other Contingencies
	We have issued or provided the following guarantees as of March 31, 2015:
	•	$412 for letters of credit issued to (i) guarantee our performance under certain services contracts; (ii) support certain insurance programs; and (iii) support our obligations related to the Brazil tax and labor contingencies.
	•	$688 for outstanding surety bonds. Certain contracts, primarily those involving public sector customers, require us to provide a surety bond as a guarantee of our performance of contractual obligations.
	In general, we would only be liable for the amount of these guarantees in the event of default in our performance of our obligations under each contract; the probability of which we believe is remote. We believe that our capacity in the surety markets as well as under various credit arrangements (including our Credit Facility) is sufficient to allow us to respond to future requests for proposals that require such credit support.
	We have service arrangements where we service third party student loans in the Federal Family Education Loan program (FFEL) on behalf of various financial institutions. We service these loans for investors under outsourcing arrangements and do not acquire any servicing rights that are transferable by us to a third party. At March 31, 2015, we serviced a FFEL portfolio of approximately 2.6 million loans with an outstanding principal balance of approximately $38.1 billion. Some servicing agreements contain provisions that, under certain circumstances, require us to purchase the loans from the investor if the loan guaranty has been permanently terminated as a result of a loan default caused by our servicing error. If defaults caused by us are cured during an initial period, any obligation we may have to purchase these loans expires. Loans that we purchase may be subsequently cured, the guaranty reinstated and the loans repackaged for sale to third parties. We evaluate our exposure under our purchase obligations on defaulted loans and establish a reserve for potential losses, or default liability reserve, through a charge to the provision for loss on defaulted loans purchased. The reserve is evaluated periodically and adjusted based upon management’s analysis of the historical performance of the defaulted loans. As of March 31, 2015, other current liabilities included reserves of approximately $3 for losses on defaulted loans purchased. In addition to potential purchase obligations arising from servicing errors, various laws and regulations applicable to student loan borrowers could give rise to fines, penalties and other liabilities associated with loan servicing errors.
