	We are an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Interactive ("Liberty"), which owns interests in a broad range of digital commerce businesses. On August 9, 2012, Liberty completed the recapitalization of its common stock into shares of the corresponding series of two new tracking stocks, Liberty Interactive (Nasdaq: LINTA, LINTB) and Liberty Ventures (Nasdaq: LVNTA, LVNTB). On October 3, 2014, Liberty's board of directors approved (i) the change in attribution from the Liberty Interactive Group to the Liberty Ventures Group of its digital commerce companies (Provide Commerce, Inc., Backcountry.com, Inc., Bodybuilding.com, LLC, CommerceHub and the Evite.com business), together with $970 million in cash, effective immediately; (ii) the creation of an inter-group interest in Liberty Ventures Group in favor of the former Liberty Interactive Group (which will now be referred to as the "QVC Group"), which is represented as a number of Liberty Ventures shares that may be issued to the QVC Group ("Inter-Group Interest Shares") calculated in accordance with Liberty's Restated Certificate of Incorporation; and (iii) a dividend of the Inter-Group Interest Shares to the holders of QVC Group common stock in full elimination of the inter-group interest. In connection with the payment of the dividend, typical antidilution adjustments will be made to outstanding QVC Group equity incentive awards, and the Liberty board reattributed $30 million in cash to the Liberty Ventures Group relating to its assumption of liabilities related to those awards. We refer to the foregoing transactions as the "2014 Reattribution." As a result of these transactions, we are now attributed to the new QVC Group, which tracks the assets and liabilities of our company and Liberty's 38% equity interest in HSN, Inc., one of our two closest televised shopping competitors, and the trading symbols for the Series A QVC Group tracking stock and the Series B QVC Group tracking stock have changed to "QVCA" and "QVCB," respectively. In connection with the 2014 Reattribution, we increased the balance on our credit facility to $1.06 billion.	We are an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Interactive Corporation ("Liberty") (Nasdaq: LINTA, LINTB, LVNTA and LVNTB), which owns interests in a broad range of digital commerce businesses. We are attributed to the Liberty Interactive tracking stock, which tracks the assets and liabilities of Liberty's Interactive Group (the "Interactive Group"). The Interactive Group does not represent a separate legal entity; rather, it represents those businesses, assets and liabilities that are attributed to that group. Liberty also attributes to its Interactive Group those businesses primarily focused on digital commerce and its 38% ownership interest in HSN, Inc. ("HSN"), one of our two closest televised shopping competitors.

	On April 16, 2014, QVC announced plans to expand its global presence into France. Similar to its other markets, QVC plans to offer a highly immersive digital shopping experience, with strong integration across e-commerce, TV, mobile and social platforms, with the launch scheduled for the second quarter of 2015.	In October 2013, Liberty announced that its board has authorized management to pursue a plan to recapitalize (the "Recapitalization") its Liberty Interactive Group tracking stock into two new tracking stocks, one (currently the Liberty Interactive common stock) to be renamed the QVC Group common stock and the other to be designated as the Liberty Digital Commerce common stock. In the Recapitalization, record holders of Series A and Series B Liberty Interactive common stock would receive one share of the corresponding series of Liberty Digital Commerce common stock for each 10 shares of the renamed QVC Group common stock held by them as of the effective date. Liberty intends to attribute to the Liberty Digital Commerce Group its operating subsidiaries Provide Commerce, Inc.; Backcountry.com, Inc.; Bodybuilding.com, LLC; CommerceHub; Right Start and Evite along with cash and certain liabilities. The QVC Group, which is currently known as the Liberty Interactive Group, would have attributed to it the Company and Liberty's approximate 38% interest in HSN, along with cash and certain liabilities.

	The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions were eliminated in consolidation.	The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions were eliminated in consolidation.

	The accompanying (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods have been included. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in QVC's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates include, but are not limited to, sales returns, uncollectible receivables, inventory obsolescence, depreciable lives of fixed assets, internally-developed software, valuation of acquired intangible assets and goodwill, income taxes and stock-based compensation.

	On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

	Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.

							The Company enters into affiliation agreements with cable and satellite television providers for carriage of the Company's shopping service, as well as for certain channel placement. If these cable and satellite affiliates were to add additional subscribers to the agreement through acquisition, the Company may be required to make additional payments.
	The Company recorded amortization expense of $46 million and $44 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, related to cable and satellite television distribution rights. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, amortization expense for cable and satellite television distribution rights was $93 million and $86 million, respectively.						The Company's ability to continue to sell products to its customers is dependent on its ability to maintain and renew these affiliation agreements. In some cases, renewals are not agreed upon prior to the expiration of a given agreement while the programming continues to be carried by the relevant distributor without an effective agreement in place. The Company does not have distribution agreements with some of the cable operators that carry its programming.
	As of June 30, 2014, related amortization expense for each of the next five years ended December 31 was as follows (in millions):						Cable and satellite television distribution rights are amortized using the straight-line method over the lives of the individual agreements. The remaining weighted average lives of the cable and satellite television distribution rights was approximately 3.7 years at December 31, 2013. Amortization expense for cable and satellite television distribution rights was $177 million, $163 million and $167 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
							The increase in channel placement amortization and related expenses in 2013 was primarily due to new and amended long-term cable and satellite television distribution agreements in the U.S.
							As of December 31, 2013, related amortization expense for each of the next five years ended December 31 was as follows (in millions):
	Remainder of 2014	$	87

	2015	168					2014	$	176

	2017	111					2016	161

	2018	6					2017	110

							2018	5

							The decrease in future amortization expense in 2018 is primarily due to the end of affiliation agreement terms for contracts in place at the time of the Liberty acquisition of QVC in 2003.
							In return for carrying our signals, each programming distributor in the U.S. receives an allocated portion, based upon market share, of up to 5% of the net sales of merchandise sold via the television programs and from certain Internet sales to customers located in the programming distributors' service areas. In Japan, Germany, the U.K. and Italy, programming distributors predominately receive an agreed-upon annual fee, a monthly fee per subscriber regardless of the net sales, a variable percentage of net sales or some combination of the above arrangements. The Company recorded expense related to these commissions of $298 million, $296 million and $299 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, which is included as part of operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, amortization expense for other intangible assets was $130 million and $125 million, respectively, related to other intangible assets.										Amortization expense for other intangible assets was $254 million, $237 million and $272 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
	As of June 30, 2014, the related amortization expense and interest expense for each of the next five years ended December 31 was as follows (in millions):										The increase in software amortization in 2013 was primarily due to solutions to enhance customer service and productivity in the U.S and Germany.
											During the fourth quarter of 2011, QVC determined that certain capitalized customer relationship management ("CRM") software did not meet service-level expectations and desired functionality. As a result, QVC recorded an impairment of certain CRM assets in the amount of $47 million included in depreciation and amortization in the consolidated statement of operations within the QVC-U.S. operating segment.
											As of December 31, 2013, the related amortization expense and interest expense for each of the next five years ended December 31 was as follows (in millions):

											2018	9

											The decrease in future amortization expense in 2018 is primarily due to the end of the useful lives of the affiliate and customer relationships in place at the time of the Liberty acquisition of QVC in 2003.

							(b) Senior Secured Notes due 2017
	Senior Secured Notes						On March 23, 2010, QVC issued $500 million principal amount of 7.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 at par. On March 18, 2013, $124 million of the 7.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 were tendered pursuant to the Offers, whereby holders of the 7.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 received consideration of $1,039.40 for each $1,000 principal amount of tendered 7.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2017. On April 17, 2013, QVC completed the redemption of the remaining $376 million principal amount of its 7.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2017, whereby holders received consideration of $1,035.63 for each $1,000 principal amount of tendered 7.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2017.
	On March 18, 2014, QVC issued $400 million principal amount of 3.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 at an issue price of 99.828% and $600 million principal amount of 4.850% Senior Secured Notes due 2024 at an issue price of 99.927% (collectively, the “Notes”). The Notes are secured by a first-priority lien on the capital stock of QVC, which is the same collateral that secures QVC's existing secured indebtedness and certain future indebtedness. The net proceeds from the offerings were used to repay indebtedness under QVC’s senior secured credit facility and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. Interest is payable semi-annually.						(c) Senior Secured Notes due 2019
	Senior Secured Credit Facility						On September 25, 2009, QVC issued $1 billion principal amount of 7.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 at an issue price of 98.278%. On March 18, 2013, $231 million of the 7.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 were tendered pursuant to the Offers, whereby holders of the 7.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 received consideration of $1,120 for each $1,000 principal amount of tendered 7.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2019. The senior secured notes have equal priority to the senior secured credit facility. The notes are secured by the stock of QVC and certain of its subsidiaries. Interest is payable semi-annually.
	QVC had approximately $1.9 billion available under the terms of the Company's senior secured credit facility at June 30, 2014. The interest rate on the senior secured credit facility was 1.9% at June 30, 2014.						(d) Senior Secured Notes due 2020
	Other Debt Related Information						On March 23, 2010, QVC issued $500 million principal amount of 7.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2020 at par. The senior secured notes have equal priority to the senior secured credit facility. The notes are secured by the stock of QVC and certain of its subsidiaries. Interest is payable semi-annually.
	QVC was in compliance with all of its debt covenants at June 30, 2014.						(e) Senior Secured Notes due 2022
	During the quarter, there were no significant changes to QVC's debt credit ratings.						On July 2, 2012, QVC issued $500 million principal amount of 5.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2022 at par. The senior secured notes have equal priority to the senior secured credit facility. The notes are secured by the stock of QVC and certain of its subsidiaries. Interest is payable semi-annually.
	The weighted average rate applicable to all of the outstanding debt (excluding capital leases) was 5.5% as of June 30, 2014.						(f) Senior Secured Notes due 2023 and 2043
							On March 18, 2013, QVC issued $750 million principal amount of 4.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2023 at an issue price of 99.968% and issued $300 million principal amount of 5.95% Senior Secured Notes due 2043 at an issue price of 99.973%. These notes are secured by the stock of QVC and have equal priority to the senior secured credit facility and QVC's other notes. Interest is payable semi-annually.
							The net proceeds from the issuance of these instruments were used to reduce the outstanding principal under QVC's existing 7.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2017, the 7.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 and the senior secured credit facility, as well as for general corporate purposes.
							(g) Senior Secured Credit Facility
							On March 1, 2013, we amended and restated our senior secured credit facility, which provides for a $2.0 billion revolving credit facility with a $250 million sub-limit for standby letters of credit and $1.0 billion of uncommitted incremental revolving loan commitments or incremental term loans. QVC may elect that the loans extended under the senior secured credit facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR Rate or LIBOR, as each is defined in the senior secured credit facility agreement, plus a margin of 0.25% to 2.00% depending on various factors. Each loan may be prepaid at any time and from time to time without penalty other than customary breakage costs. Any amounts prepaid on the revolving credit facility may be reborrowed. Payment of loans may be accelerated following certain customary events of default. The senior secured credit facility is a multi-currency facility. The senior secured credit facility is secured by the stock of QVC. We had $1.1 billion available under the terms of the senior secured credit facility at December 31, 2013. The interest rate on the senior secured credit facility was 1.9% at December 31, 2013.
							The purpose of the amendment was to, among other things, extend the maturity of our senior secured credit facility to March 1, 2018 and lower the interest rate on borrowings.
							The senior secured credit facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including certain restrictions with respect to, among other things: incurring additional indebtedness; creating liens on property or assets; making certain loans or investments; selling or disposing of assets; paying certain dividends and other restricted payments; dissolving, consolidating or merging; entering into certain transactions with affiliates; entering into sale or leaseback transactions; restricting subsidiary distributions; and limiting QVC's ratio of consolidated total debt to consolidated Adjusted OIBDA (Adjusted OIBDA is defined in note 15).
							(h) Interest Rate Swap Arrangements
							In 2009 and 2011, QVC entered into several interest rate swap arrangements to mitigate the interest rate risk associated with interest payments related to its variable rate debt. QVC assessed the effectiveness of its interest rate swaps using the hypothetical derivative method. During 2013, 2012 and 2011, QVC's elected interest terms did not effectively match the terms of the swap arrangements. As a result, the swaps did not qualify as cash flow hedges. Changes in fair value of these interest rate swaps were included in gains on financial instruments in the consolidated statements of operations. In March 2013, QVC's notional interest rate swaps of $3.1 billion expired.
							(i) Other Debt Related Information
							As a result of the refinancing transactions discussed above, we incurred an extinguishment loss of $57 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, recorded as loss on extinguishment of debt in the consolidated statements of operations.
							QVC was in compliance with all of its debt covenants at December 31, 2013.
							During the year, there were no significant changes to QVC's debt credit ratings.
							The weighted average rate applicable to all of the outstanding debt (excluding capital leases) was 5.0% as of December 31, 2013.
							At December 31, 2013 and 2012, outstanding letters of credit totaled $26 million and $30 million, respectively.

	The Company has entered into ten separate agreements with transponder suppliers to transmit its signals in the U.S., Germany and the U.K. at an aggregate monthly cost of $1 million. Depreciation expense related to the transponders was $3 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, depreciation expense related to the transponders was $6 million, respectively. Total future minimum capital lease payments of $80 million include $7 million of imputed interest. The transponder service agreements for our U.S. transponders expire in 2019 through 2020. The transponder service agreements for our international transponders expire in December 2014 through 2022.				We distribute our television programs, via satellite and optical fiber, to cable television and direct-to-home satellite system operators for retransmission to their subscribers in the U.S., Japan, Germany, the U.K. and neighboring countries. We also transmit our television programs over digital terrestrial broadcast television to viewers throughout Italy, the U.K. and to viewers in certain geographic regions in the U.S and Germany. In the U.S., we uplink our analog and digital programming transmissions using a third party service. Both transmissions are uplinked to protected, non-preemptible transponders on U.S. satellites. "Protected" status means that, in the event of a transponder failure, our signal will be transferred to a spare transponder or, if none is available, to a preemptible transponder located on the same satellite or, in certain cases, to a transponder on another satellite owned by the same service provider if one is available at the time of the failure. "Non-preemptible" status means that, in the event of a transponder failure, our transponders cannot be preempted in favor of a user of a failed transponder, even another user with "protected status." Our international business units each obtain uplinking services from third parties and transmit their programming to non-preemptible transponders on international satellites. Our transponder service agreements for our U.S. transponders expire at the earlier of the end of the lives of the satellites or the service agreements. The service agreements in the U.S. expire in 2019 through 2020. Our transponder service agreements for our international transponders expire in 2014 through 2022.
	Expenses for operating leases, principally for data processing equipment and facilities and for satellite uplink service agreements, amounted to $7 million and $6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, expenses for operating leases was $14 million, respectively.				The Company has entered into ten separate agreements with transponder suppliers to transmit its signals in the U.S., Germany and the U.K. at an aggregate monthly cost of $1 million. Depreciation expense related to the transponders was $12 million, $11 million and $14 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Total future minimum capital lease payments of $88 million include $9 million of imputed interest.
					QVC's ability to continue to sell products to its customers is dependent on its ability to maintain uninterrupted broadcast.
					Expenses for operating leases, principally for data processing equipment and facilities and for satellite uplink service agreements, amounted to $28 million, $31 million and $24 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
					The Company entered into a 21 year operating lease for its QVC-U.K. headquarters that commenced in 2012, which is included in the future minimum operating lease payments in the above table.

	The Company calculates its interim income tax provision by applying its best estimate of the annual expected effective tax rate to its ordinary year-to-date income or loss. The tax or benefit related to significant, unusual or extraordinary items that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effect are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which those items occur.	Income tax expense (benefit) consisted of the following:
	The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and significant judgment including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed in foreign jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences as a result of differences between amounts measured and recognized in accordance with tax laws and financial accounting standards, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, additional information is obtained or as the tax environment changes. To the extent that the estimated annual effective tax rate changes during a quarter, the effect of the change on the prior quarters is included in the tax expense for the current quarter.
	For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded a tax provision of $83 million, which represented an effective tax rate of 37.2%. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded a tax provision of $157 million, which represented an effective tax rate of 37.5%. These rates differ from the U.S. federal income tax rate of 35.0% due primarily to state tax expense.
	QVC is party to ongoing discussions with the Internal Revenue Service under the Compliance Assurance Process audit program. The Company files Federal tax returns on a consolidated basis with its parent company, Liberty. The Company, or one of its subsidiaries, files income tax returns in various states and foreign jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2014, the Company, or one of its subsidiaries, was under examination in California, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, the City of New York and Pennsylvania, as well as in Germany, the U.K, and Italy.		Years ended December 31,
	The amounts of the tax-related balances due to Liberty at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were $22 million and $78 million, respectively, and were included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.	(in millions)	2013			2012		2011
	The Company previously entered into a Tax Liability Allocation and Indemnification Agreement (the “Tax Agreement”) with Liberty. The Tax Agreement establishes the methodology for the calculation and payment of income taxes in connection with the consolidation of the Company with Liberty for income tax purposes. Generally, the Tax Agreement provides that the Company will pay Liberty an amount equal to the tax liability, if any, that it would have if it were to file as a consolidated group separate and apart from Liberty, with exceptions for the treatment and timing of certain items, including but not limited to deferred intercompany transactions, credits, and net operating and capital losses. To the extent that the separate company tax expense is different from the payment terms of the Tax Agreement, the difference is recorded as either a dividend or capital contribution.

	Cumulative translation of foreign currencies	(47		)	(33	)
	Total deferred tax liabilities	(1,396		)	(1,488	)
	Net deferred tax liability	$	(1,164	)	(1,259	)
	In the above table, valuation allowances exist due, in part, to the uncertainty of whether or not the benefit of certain foreign tax credits will ultimately be utilized for income tax purposes.
	The Company has recognized tax benefits from the exercise of employee stock options that reduced taxes payable and were credited to additional paid-in capital. The amount of the tax benefits is reported in the consolidated statements of equity.
	The Company entered into a Tax Liability Allocation and Indemnification Agreement (the "Tax Agreement"), dated April 26, 2004, with Liberty. The Tax Agreement establishes the methodology for the calculation and payment of income taxes in connection with the consolidation of the Company with Liberty for income tax purposes. Generally, the Tax Agreement provides that the Company will pay Liberty an amount equal to the tax liability, if any, that it would have if it were to file as a consolidated group separate and apart from Liberty, with exceptions for the treatment and timing of certain items, including but not limited to deferred intercompany transactions, credits, and net operating and capital losses. To the extent that the separate company tax expense is different from the payment terms of the Tax Agreement, the difference is recorded as either a dividend or capital contribution. The differences recorded during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 were $45 million, $47 million and $10 million in dividends, respectively, and related primarily to foreign tax credits recognized by QVC that are creditable under the Tax Agreement when and if utilized in Liberty's consolidated tax return. The amounts of the tax-related balance due to Liberty at December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $78 million and $70 million, respectively, and are included in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
	The Company has provided for U.S. income taxes on the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries. The Company expects the amount of foreign tax credits available on those undistributed earnings to offset the U.S. income tax liability and to result in an incremental benefit related to the increased utilization of foreign tax credits. The amount of the U.S. income tax benefit recorded in the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 on those undistributed earnings was $3 million, $12 million and $10 million, respectively.
	A reconciliation of the 2013 beginning and ending amount of the liability for unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:


	(in millions)

	Balance at January 1, 2013	95

	Decreases related to prior year tax positions	(11	)
	Increases related to current year tax positions	12

	Settlements	(7	)
	Balance at December 31, 2013	89

	Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2013 are potential benefits of $58 million (net of a $31 million federal tax effect) that, if recognized, would affect the effective rate on income from continuing operations.
	The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company did not have a material amount of interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits or tax penalties.
	The Company has tax positions for which the amount of related unrecognized tax benefits could change during 2014. These include federal transfer pricing and nonfederal tax issues. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits related to these issues could have a net decrease of $24 million in 2014 as a result of potential settlements, lapsing of statute of limitations and revisions of settlement estimates.
	The Company participates in a consolidated federal return filing with Liberty. As of December 31, 2013, the Company's tax years through 2009 are closed for federal income tax purposes, and the IRS has completed its examination of the Company's 2010, 2011, and 2012 tax years. The Company's 2013 tax year is being examined currently as part of the Liberty consolidated return under the IRS's Compliance Assurance Process ("CAP") program. The Company, or one of its subsidiaries, files income tax returns in various states and foreign jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2013, the Company, or one of its subsidiaries, was under examination in California, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, the City of New York and Pennsylvania, as well as in Germany and the U.K.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Disclosures

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value

For assets and liabilities required to be reported or disclosed at fair value, U.S. GAAP provides a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs, other than quoted market prices included within Level 1, are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The Company's assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value were as follows:

The majority of the Company's Level 2 financial assets and liabilities are debt instruments with quoted market prices that are not considered to be traded on "active markets," as defined in U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, the financial instruments are reported in the foregoing tables as Level 2 fair value instruments.

U.S. GAAP requires the incorporation of a credit risk valuation adjustment in the Company's fair value measurements to estimate the impact of both its own nonperformance risk and the nonperformance risk of its counterparties. The Company estimates credit risk associated with its own and its counterparties' nonperformance primarily by using observable credit default swap rates for terms similar to those of the remaining life of the instrument, adjusted for any master netting arrangements or other factors that provide an estimate of nonperformance risk. These are Level 3 inputs. However, as the credit risk valuation adjustments were not significant, the Company reported its interest rate swaps as Level 2. The counterparties to the Company's interest rate swap arrangements were all major international financial institutions.

The Company has identified five reportable segments: the United States, Japan, Germany, the United Kingdom and Italy.																Each of the Company's operating segments are retailers of a wide range of consumer products, which are marketed and sold primarily by merchandise-focused televised-shopping programs as well as via the Internet and mobile applications in certain markets. The Company has operations in the U.S., Japan, Germany, the U.K. and Italy. As such, the Company has identified five reportable segments: the U.S., Japan, Germany, the U.K. and Italy.
	The Company evaluates performance and makes decisions about allocating resources to its operating segments based on financial measures such as net revenue, Adjusted OIBDA, gross margin, average sales price per unit, number of units shipped and revenue or sales per subscriber equivalent. The Company defines Adjusted OIBDA as revenue less cost of sales, operating expenses, and selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding stock-based compensation). The Company believes this measure is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its segments, including the ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures. In addition, this measure allows management to view operating results and perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking among our businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. This measure of performance excludes depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation, that are included in the measurement of operating income pursuant to U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, Adjusted OIBDA should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, operating income, net income, cash flow provided by operating activities and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

	These condensed consolidating financial statements have been prepared from the Company's financial information on the same basis of accounting as the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. The principal elimination entries relate to investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions, such as management fees, royalty revenue and expense, interest income and expense and gains on intercompany asset transfers. Goodwill and other intangible assets have been allocated to the subsidiaries based on management’s estimates. Certain costs have been partially allocated to all of the subsidiaries of the Company.

Goodwill and other intangible assets have been allocated to the subsidiaries based on management’s estimates. Certain costs have been partially allocated to all of the subsidiaries of the Company.
	During the three months ended June 30, 2014, an intangible asset held by certain non-guarantor subsidiaries was sold to QVC, Inc. resulting in a gain of $20 million reflected in intercompany interest and other income for the non-guarantor subsidiaries and also included in equity in earnings of subsidiaries for the subsidiary guarantors. The gain is eliminated in the eliminations column. The impact of these earnings has been eliminated in the presentation of intangible assets and equity in earnings of subsidiaries of the parent company.												The subsidiary guarantors are 100% owned by the Company. All guarantees are full and unconditional and are joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of the Company to obtain funds from its U.S. subsidiaries, including the guarantors, by dividend or loan. The Company has not presented separate notes and other disclosures concerning the subsidiary guarantors as the Company has determined that such material information is available in the notes to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

	On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.	(u) Recent accounting pronouncements
		In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-02, which amends Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 220, Comprehensive Income and requires that companies present information about reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income in their interim and annual financial statements. The standard requires that companies present either in a single note, or parenthetically on the face of the financial statements, the effect of significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive income based on its source and the income statement line items affected by the reclassification. If a component is not required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety, companies will instead cross reference to the related footnote for additional information. QVC adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2013, and adoption did not have an impact on QVC's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

	QVC is a retailer of a wide range of consumer products, which are marketed and sold primarily by merchandise-focused televised shopping programs, the Internet and mobile applications. In the U.S., QVC's live programming is distributed via its nationally televised shopping program 24 hours per day, 364 days per year ("QVC-U.S."). Internationally, QVC's program services are based in Japan ("QVC-Japan"), Germany ("QVC-Germany"), the U.K. ("QVC-U.K.") and Italy ("QVC-Italy"). QVC-Japan distributes live programming 24 hours per day, QVC-Germany distributes its program 24 hours per day with 23 hours of live programming and QVC-U.K. distributes its program 24 hours per day with 17 hours of live programming. QVC-Italy distributes programming live for 17 hours per day on satellite and digital terrestrial television and an additional seven hours per day of recorded programming on satellite and seven hours per day of general interest programming on digital terrestrial television.

	On July 4, 2012, QVC entered into a joint venture with China Broadcasting Corporation, a limited liability company owned by China National Radio ("CNR"), for a 49% interest in a CNR subsidiary, CNR Home Shopping Co., Ltd. ("CNRS"). CNRS distributes live programming for 15 hours a day and recorded programming for nine hours a day. The CNRS joint venture is accounted for as an equity method investment recorded as equity in losses of investee in the consolidated statements of operations.

	The Company has a venture with Mitsui & Co. LTD ("Mitsui") for a television and multimedia retailing service in Japan. QVC-Japan is owned 60% by the Company and 40% by Mitsui. The Company and Mitsui share in all profits and losses based on their respective ownership interests. During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, QVC-Japan paid dividends to Mitsui of $45 million, $29 million and $50 million, respectively.

	We are an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty (Nasdaq: LINTA, LINTB, LVNTA and LVNTB), which owns interests in a broad range of digital commerce businesses. We are attributed to the Liberty Interactive tracking stock, which tracks the assets and liabilities of Liberty's Interactive Group (the "Interactive Group"). The Interactive Group does not represent a separate legal entity; rather, it represents those businesses, assets and liabilities that are attributed to that group. Liberty also attributes to its Interactive Group those businesses primarily focused on digital commerce and its 38% ownership interest in HSN, Inc. ("HSN"), one of our two closest televised shopping competitors.

	In October 2013, Liberty announced that its board has authorized management to pursue a plan to recapitalize (the "Recapitalization") its Liberty Interactive Group tracking stock into two new tracking stocks, one (currently the Liberty Interactive common stock) to be renamed the QVC Group common stock and the other to be designated as the Liberty Digital Commerce common stock. In the Recapitalization, record holders of Series A and Series B Liberty Interactive common stock would receive one share of the corresponding series of Liberty Digital Commerce common stock for each 10 shares of the renamed QVC Group common stock held by them as of the effective date. Liberty intends to attribute to the Liberty Digital Commerce Group its operating subsidiaries Provide Commerce, Inc.; Backcountry.com, Inc.; Bodybuilding.com, LLC; CommerceHub; Right Start and Evite along with cash and certain liabilities. The QVC Group, which is currently known as the Liberty Interactive Group, would have attributed to it the Company and Liberty's approximate 38% interest in HSN, along with cash and certain liabilities.

	The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions were eliminated in consolidation.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Significant accounting policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Cash and cash equivalents

All highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less are classified as cash equivalents. Cash equivalents were $342 million and $424 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents approximates their fair values (Level 1).

(b) Restricted cash

Restricted cash at December 31, 2013 and 2012 primarily includes a cash deposit with a third party trustee that provides financial assurance that the Company will fulfill its obligations in relation to claims under its workers' compensation policy.

A provision for customer bad debts is provided as a percentage of accounts receivable based on historical experience and is included within selling, general and administrative expense. A provision for noncustomer bad debt expense, related to amounts due from vendors for unsold and returned products, is provided based on an estimate of the probable expected losses and is included in cost of goods sold.

(d) Inventories

Inventories, consisting primarily of products held for sale, are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the average cost method, which approximates the first-in, first-out method. Assessments about the realizability of inventory require the Company to make judgments based on currently available information about the likely method of disposition including sales to individual customers, returns to product vendors, liquidations and the estimated recoverable values of each disposition category.

(e) Property, plant and equipment

The costs of property, plant and equipment are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method beginning in the month of acquisition or in-service date. Transponders under capital leases are stated at the present value of minimum lease payments. When assets are sold or retired, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in net income. The costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

The Company is party to several transponder capacity arrangements as a lessee, which are accounted for as capital leases.

(f) Capitalized interest

The Company capitalizes interest cost incurred on debt during the construction of major projects exceeding one year. Capitalized interest was not material to the financial statements for any periods presented.

(g) Internally developed software

Internal software development costs are capitalized in accordance with guidance on accounting for the costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use, and are classified within other intangible assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company amortizes computer software and internal software development costs over an estimated useful life of approximately three years using the straight-line method.

(h) Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of costs over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill is not amortized. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment, and more frequently if events and circumstances indicated that the asset might be impaired. An impairment loss would be recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeded the reporting unit's fair value.

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:

The Company utilized a qualitative assessment for determining whether step one of the goodwill impairment analysis was necessary, and concluded it was not. In evaluating goodwill on a qualitative basis, the Company reviewed the business performance of each reporting unit, evaluated other relevant factors and determined that it was not more likely than not that an impairment existed for any of the Company's reporting units. The Company considered whether there were any negative macroeconomic conditions, industry specific conditions, market changes, increased competition, increased costs in doing business, management challenges, the legal environments and how these factors might impact company specific performance in future periods.

If a step one test would have been necessary based on the qualitative factors, the Company would have compared the estimated fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value. Developing estimates of fair value requires significant judgments, including making assumptions about appropriate discount rates, perpetual growth rates, relevant comparable market multiples, public trading prices and the amount and timing of expected future cash flows. The cash flows employed in the Company's valuation analysis are based on management's best estimates considering current marketplace factors and risks as well as assumptions of growth rates in future years. There is no assurance that actual results in the future will approximate these forecasts. For those reporting units whose carrying value exceeds the fair value, a second test is required to measure the impairment loss (the "Step 2 Test"). In the Step 2 Test, the fair value (Level 3) of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit with any residual value being allocated to goodwill. Any excess of the carrying value of the goodwill over this allocated amount is recorded as an impairment charge.

(i) Translation of foreign currencies

Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated at the spot rate in effect at the applicable reporting date, and the consolidated statements of operations are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the applicable period. The resulting unrealized cumulative translation adjustments, net of applicable income taxes, are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in equity.

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are recorded based on exchange rates at the time such transactions arise. Subsequent changes in exchange rates result in transaction gains and losses, which are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as unrealized (based on the applicable period-end exchange rate) or realized upon settlement of the transactions.

(j) Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue at the time of delivery to customers. The revenue for shipments in-transit is recorded as deferred revenue.

The Company's policy is to allow customers to return merchandise for up to thirty days after the date of shipment. An allowance for returned merchandise is provided at the time revenue is recorded as a percentage of sales based on historical experience. The total reduction in net revenue due to returns for the years ended years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 aggregated to $2,036 million, $1,965 million and $1,900 million, respectively.

The Company evaluates the criteria for reporting revenue gross as a principal versus net as an agent, in determining whether it is appropriate to record the gross amount of product sales and related costs or the net amount earned as commissions. Generally, the Company is the primary obligor in the arrangement, has inventory risk, has latitude in establishing the selling price and selecting suppliers, and accordingly, records revenue gross.

Sales and use taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and, therefore, are excluded from net revenue in the consolidated statements of operations.

(k) Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold primarily includes actual product cost, provision for obsolete inventory, buying allowances received from suppliers, shipping and handling costs and warehouse costs.

(l) Advertising costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs amounted to $89 million, $91 million and $81 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These costs were included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

(m) Stock-based compensation

As more fully described in note 10, the Company and Liberty have granted certain stock‑based awards to employees of the Company. The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments (such as stock options and restricted stock) based on the grant-date fair value of the award, and recognizes that cost over the period during which the employee is required to provide service (usually the vesting period of the award). Stock‑based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

(n) Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, internally developed software and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Impairment charges are recognized as an acceleration of depreciation expense or amortization expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company determined that certain capitalized customer relationship management ("CRM") software did not meet our service-level expectations and desired functionality. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment of certain CRM assets in the amount of $47 million included in depreciation and amortization in the statement of operations within the QVC-U.S. operating segment.

(o) Derivatives

The Company accounts for derivatives and hedging activities in accordance with standards issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), which requires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at their respective fair values. Fair value is based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. For derivatives designated as hedges, changes in the fair value are either offset against the changes in fair value of the designated hedged item through earnings or recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings.

The Company generally enters into derivative contracts that it intends to designate as a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (cash flow hedge). For all hedging relationships, the Company formally documents the hedging relationship and its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge, the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the risk being hedged, how the hedging instrument's effectiveness in offsetting the hedged risk will be assessed prospectively and retrospectively, and a description of the method of measuring ineffectiveness. The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedge's inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting cash flows of hedged items. Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is highly effective and that is designated and qualifies as a cash flow hedge are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income to the extent that the derivative is effective as a hedge, until earnings are affected by the variability in cash flows of the designated hedged item. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of a derivative instrument that qualifies as a cash flow hedge is reported in earnings.

In 2009 and 2011, QVC entered into several interest rate swap arrangements to mitigate the interest rate risk associated with interest payments related to its variable rate debt. QVC assessed the effectiveness of its interest rate swaps using the hypothetical derivative method. During 2013, 2012 and 2011, QVC's elected interest terms did not effectively match the terms of the swap arrangements. As a result, the swaps did not qualify as cash flow hedges. Changes in fair value of these interest rate swaps were included in gains on financial instruments in the consolidated statements of operations. In March 2013, QVC's notional interest rate swaps of $3.1 billion expired.

(p) Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using statutory tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of an enacted change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

When the tax law requires interest to be paid on an underpayment of income taxes, the Company recognizes interest expense from the first period the interest would begin accruing according to the relevant tax law. The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations.

(q) Noncontrolling interest

The Company reports the noncontrolling interest of QVC-Japan within equity in the consolidated balance sheets and the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest is presented in the consolidated statements of operations.

(r) Business acquisitions

Acquired businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting, which requires the Company to record assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective fair values with the excess of the purchase price over estimated fair values recorded as goodwill. The assumptions made in determining the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities as well as asset lives can materially impact the results of operations. The Company obtains information during due diligence and through other sources to establish respective fair values. Examples of factors and information that the Company uses to determine the fair values include tangible and intangible asset evaluations and appraisals and evaluations of existing contingencies and liabilities. If the initial valuation for an acquisition is incomplete by the end of the quarter in which the acquisition occurred, the Company will record a provisional estimate in the financial statements. The provisional estimate will be finalized as soon as information becomes available, but not later than one year from the acquisition date.

(s) Investment in affiliate

The Company holds an investment in China that is accounted for using the equity method. The equity method of accounting is used when we exercise significant influence, but do not have operating control, generally assumed to be 20%-50% ownership. Under the equity method, original investments are recorded at cost and adjusted by our share of undistributed earnings or losses of these companies. The excess of the Company's cost on its underlying interest in the net assets of the affiliate is allocated to identifiable intangible assets and goodwill. Equity investments are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may not be recoverable.

(t) Use of estimates in the preparation of consolidated financial statements

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates include, but are not limited to, sales returns, uncollectible receivables, inventory obsolescence, medical and other benefit related costs, depreciable lives of fixed assets, internally developed software, valuation of acquired intangible assets and goodwill, income taxes and stock‑based compensation.

(u) Recent accounting pronouncements

In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2013-02, which amends Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 220, Comprehensive Income and requires that companies present information about reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income in their interim and annual financial statements. The standard requires that companies present either in a single note, or parenthetically on the face of the financial statements, the effect of significant amounts reclassified from each component of accumulated other comprehensive income based on its source and the income statement line items affected by the reclassification. If a component is not required to be reclassified to net income in its entirety, companies will instead cross reference to the related footnote for additional information. QVC adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2013, and adoption did not have an impact on QVC's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(v) Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation.

Receivables [Abstract]	'
Accounts Receivable	'
	Accounts Receivable
	The Company has two credit programs, the QVC Easy-Pay Plan (known as Q Pay in Germany) and the QVC-U.S. revolving credit card program. The QVC Easy-Pay Plan permits customers to pay for items in two or more installments. When the QVC Easy-Pay Plan is offered by QVC and elected by the customer, the first installment is typically billed to the customer's credit card upon shipment. Generally, the customer's credit card is subsequently billed up to five additional monthly installments until the total purchase price of the products has been billed by the Company.
	QVC-U.S. has an agreement with a large consumer financial institution (the "Bank") pursuant to which the Bank provides revolving credit directly to our customers for the sole purpose of purchasing merchandise from us with a QVC branded credit card ("Q Card"). We receive a portion of the net economics of the credit card program according to percentages that vary with the performance of the portfolio. We cannot predict the extent to which customers will use the Q Card, nor the extent that they will make payments on their outstanding balances. The net amount of finance income resulting from credit card operations is included as a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses and was $63 million, $65 million and $58 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
	The Company also accepts major credit cards for its sales. Accounts receivable from major credit cards represents amounts owed to QVC from the credit card clearing houses for amounts billed but not yet collected.
	Accounts receivable consisted of the following:

							The Company enters into affiliation agreements with cable and satellite television providers for carriage of the Company's shopping service, as well as for certain channel placement. If these cable and satellite affiliates were to add additional subscribers to the agreement through acquisition, the Company may be required to make additional payments.
	The Company recorded amortization expense of $46 million and $44 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, related to cable and satellite television distribution rights. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, amortization expense for cable and satellite television distribution rights was $93 million and $86 million, respectively.						The Company's ability to continue to sell products to its customers is dependent on its ability to maintain and renew these affiliation agreements. In some cases, renewals are not agreed upon prior to the expiration of a given agreement while the programming continues to be carried by the relevant distributor without an effective agreement in place. The Company does not have distribution agreements with some of the cable operators that carry its programming.
	As of June 30, 2014, related amortization expense for each of the next five years ended December 31 was as follows (in millions):						Cable and satellite television distribution rights are amortized using the straight-line method over the lives of the individual agreements. The remaining weighted average lives of the cable and satellite television distribution rights was approximately 3.7 years at December 31, 2013. Amortization expense for cable and satellite television distribution rights was $177 million, $163 million and $167 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
							The increase in channel placement amortization and related expenses in 2013 was primarily due to new and amended long-term cable and satellite television distribution agreements in the U.S.
							As of December 31, 2013, related amortization expense for each of the next five years ended December 31 was as follows (in millions):
	Remainder of 2014	$	87

	2015	168					2014	$	176

	2018	6					2017	110

							2018	5

							The decrease in future amortization expense in 2018 is primarily due to the end of affiliation agreement terms for contracts in place at the time of the Liberty acquisition of QVC in 2003.
							In return for carrying our signals, each programming distributor in the U.S. receives an allocated portion, based upon market share, of up to 5% of the net sales of merchandise sold via the television programs and from certain Internet sales to customers located in the programming distributors' service areas. In Japan, Germany, the U.K. and Italy, programming distributors predominately receive an agreed-upon annual fee, a monthly fee per subscriber regardless of the net sales, a variable percentage of net sales or some combination of the above arrangements. The Company recorded expense related to these commissions of $298 million, $296 million and $299 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, which is included as part of operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

											During the fourth quarter of 2011, QVC determined that certain capitalized customer relationship management ("CRM") software did not meet service-level expectations and desired functionality. As a result, QVC recorded an impairment of certain CRM assets in the amount of $47 million included in depreciation and amortization in the consolidated statement of operations within the QVC-U.S. operating segment.

							(b) Senior Secured Notes due 2017
	Senior Secured Notes						On March 23, 2010, QVC issued $500 million principal amount of 7.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 at par. On March 18, 2013, $124 million of the 7.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 were tendered pursuant to the Offers, whereby holders of the 7.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 received consideration of $1,039.40 for each $1,000 principal amount of tendered 7.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2017.

	On March 18, 2014, QVC issued $400 million principal amount of 3.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 at an issue price of 99.828% and $600 million principal amount of 4.850% Senior Secured Notes due 2024 at an issue price of 99.927% (collectively, the “Notes”). The Notes are secured by a first-priority lien on the capital stock of QVC, which is the same collateral that secures QVC's existing secured indebtedness and certain future indebtedness. The net proceeds from the offerings were used to repay indebtedness under QVC’s senior secured credit facility and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. Interest is payable semi-annually.						(c) Senior Secured Notes due 2019
	Senior Secured Credit Facility						On September 25, 2009, QVC issued $1 billion principal amount of 7.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 at an issue price of 98.278%. On March 18, 2013, $231 million of the 7.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 were tendered pursuant to the Offers, whereby holders of the 7.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 received consideration of $1,120 for each $1,000 principal amount of tendered 7.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2019. The senior secured notes have equal priority to the senior secured credit facility. The notes are secured by the stock of QVC and certain of its subsidiaries. Interest is payable semi-annually.
	QVC had approximately $1.9 billion available under the terms of the Company's senior secured credit facility at June 30, 2014. The interest rate on the senior secured credit facility was 1.9% at June 30, 2014.						(d) Senior Secured Notes due 2020
	Other Debt Related Information						On March 23, 2010, QVC issued $500 million principal amount of 7.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2020 at par. The senior secured notes have equal priority to the senior secured credit facility. The notes are secured by the stock of QVC and certain of its subsidiaries. Interest is payable semi-annually.
	QVC was in compliance with all of its debt covenants at June 30, 2014.						(e) Senior Secured Notes due 2022
	During the quarter, there were no significant changes to QVC's debt credit ratings.						On July 2, 2012, QVC issued $500 million principal amount of 5.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2022 at par. The senior secured notes have equal priority to the senior secured credit facility. The notes are secured by the stock of QVC and certain of its subsidiaries. Interest is payable semi-annually.
	The weighted average rate applicable to all of the outstanding debt (excluding capital leases) was 5.5% as of June 30, 2014.						(f) Senior Secured Notes due 2023 and 2043
							On March 18, 2013, QVC issued $750 million principal amount of 4.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2023 at an issue price of 99.968% and issued $300 million principal amount of 5.95% Senior Secured Notes due 2043 at an issue price of 99.973%. These notes are secured by the stock of QVC and have equal priority to the senior secured credit facility and QVC's other notes. Interest is payable semi-annually.
							The net proceeds from the issuance of these instruments were used to reduce the outstanding principal under QVC's existing 7.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2017, the 7.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 and the senior secured credit facility, as well as for general corporate purposes.
							(g) Senior Secured Credit Facility
							On March 1, 2013, we amended and restated our senior secured credit facility, which provides for a $2.0 billion revolving credit facility with a $250 million sub-limit for standby letters of credit and $1.0 billion of uncommitted incremental revolving loan commitments or incremental term loans. QVC may elect that the loans extended under the senior secured credit facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR Rate or LIBOR, as each is defined in the senior secured credit facility agreement, plus a margin of 0.25% to 2.00% depending on various factors. Each loan may be prepaid at any time and from time to time without penalty other than customary breakage costs. Any amounts prepaid on the revolving credit facility may be reborrowed. Payment of loans may be accelerated following certain customary events of default. The senior secured credit facility is a multi-currency facility. The senior secured credit facility is secured by the stock of QVC. We had $1.1 billion available under the terms of the senior secured credit facility at December 31, 2013. The interest rate on the senior secured credit facility was 1.9% at December 31, 2013.
							The purpose of the amendment was to, among other things, extend the maturity of our senior secured credit facility to March 1, 2018 and lower the interest rate on borrowings.
							The senior secured credit facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including certain restrictions with respect to, among other things: incurring additional indebtedness; creating liens on property or assets; making certain loans or investments; selling or disposing of assets; paying certain dividends and other restricted payments; dissolving, consolidating or merging; entering into certain transactions with affiliates; entering into sale or leaseback transactions; restricting subsidiary distributions; and limiting QVC's ratio of consolidated total debt to consolidated Adjusted OIBDA (Adjusted OIBDA is defined in note 15).
							(h) Interest Rate Swap Arrangements
							In 2009 and 2011, QVC entered into several interest rate swap arrangements to mitigate the interest rate risk associated with interest payments related to its variable rate debt. QVC assessed the effectiveness of its interest rate swaps using the hypothetical derivative method. During 2013, 2012 and 2011, QVC's elected interest terms did not effectively match the terms of the swap arrangements. As a result, the swaps did not qualify as cash flow hedges. Changes in fair value of these interest rate swaps were included in gains on financial instruments in the consolidated statements of operations. In March 2013, QVC's notional interest rate swaps of $3.1 billion expired.
							(i) Other Debt Related Information
							As a result of the refinancing transactions discussed above, we incurred an extinguishment loss of $57 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, recorded as loss on extinguishment of debt in the consolidated statements of operations.
							QVC was in compliance with all of its debt covenants at December 31, 2013.
							During the year, there were no significant changes to QVC's debt credit ratings.
							The weighted average rate applicable to all of the outstanding debt (excluding capital leases) was 5.0% as of December 31, 2013.
							At December 31, 2013 and 2012, outstanding letters of credit totaled $26 million and $30 million, respectively.

	The Company has entered into ten separate agreements with transponder suppliers to transmit its signals in the U.S., Germany and the U.K. at an aggregate monthly cost of $1 million. Depreciation expense related to the transponders was $3 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, depreciation expense related to the transponders was $6 million, respectively. Total future minimum capital lease payments of $80 million include $7 million of imputed interest. The transponder service agreements for our U.S. transponders expire in 2019 through 2020. The transponder service agreements for our international transponders expire in December 2014 through 2022.				We distribute our television programs, via satellite and optical fiber, to cable television and direct-to-home satellite system operators for retransmission to their subscribers in the U.S., Japan, Germany, the U.K. and neighboring countries. We also transmit our television programs over digital terrestrial broadcast television to viewers throughout Italy, the U.K. and to viewers in certain geographic regions in the U.S and Germany. In the U.S., we uplink our analog and digital programming transmissions using a third party service. Both transmissions are uplinked to protected, non-preemptible transponders on U.S. satellites. "Protected" status means that, in the event of a transponder failure, our signal will be transferred to a spare transponder or, if none is available, to a preemptible transponder located on the same satellite or, in certain cases, to a transponder on another satellite owned by the same service provider if one is available at the time of the failure. "Non-preemptible" status means that, in the event of a transponder failure, our transponders cannot be preempted in favor of a user of a failed transponder, even another user with "protected status." Our international business units each obtain uplinking services from third parties and transmit their programming to non-preemptible transponders on international satellites. Our transponder service agreements for our U.S. transponders expire at the earlier of the end of the lives of the satellites or the service agreements. The service agreements in the U.S. expire in 2019 through 2020. Our transponder service agreements for our international transponders expire in 2014 through 2022.
	Expenses for operating leases, principally for data processing equipment and facilities and for satellite uplink service agreements, amounted to $7 million and $6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, expenses for operating leases was $14 million, respectively.				The Company has entered into ten separate agreements with transponder suppliers to transmit its signals in the U.S., Germany and the U.K. at an aggregate monthly cost of $1 million. Depreciation expense related to the transponders was $12 million, $11 million and $14 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Total future minimum capital lease payments of $88 million include $9 million of imputed interest.
					QVC's ability to continue to sell products to its customers is dependent on its ability to maintain uninterrupted broadcast.
					Expenses for operating leases, principally for data processing equipment and facilities and for satellite uplink service agreements, amounted to $28 million, $31 million and $24 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

	QVC employees and officers received stock options (the "Options") and restricted shares in LINTA and LVNTA common stock in accordance with the Liberty Interactive Corporation 2000 Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time; the Liberty Interactive Corporation 2007 Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time; the Liberty Interactive Corporation 2010 Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time; and the Liberty Interactive Corporation 2012 Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (collectively, the "Liberty Incentive Plan").
	(a) Stock options
	In August 2012, the LINTA stock was split into two tracking stocks, LINTA and LVNTA. The split was one LVNTA share for every 20 LINTA shares. Under the Liberty Incentive Plan, the Options have an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of a share of LINTA and LVNTA common stock at the date of the grant. Under the Liberty Incentive Plan, the Options have a seven year term from the date of grant, with the Options generally becoming exercisable over four years from the date of grant, vesting in eight equal semi-annual traunches.
	For accounting purposes, the Options are classified as equity‑based awards.
	During the fourth quarter of 2012, Liberty entered into an option exchange transaction that required a series of transactions with certain officers of the Company in order to recognize tax deductions associated with the stock options in the current year versus future years (the "Option Exchange"). On December 4, 2012 (the "Grant Date"), there was an acceleration of (i) each unvested in-the-money option to acquire shares of LINTA and (ii) each unvested in-the-money option to acquire shares of LVNTA, in each case, held by certain officers (collectively, the "Eligible Optionholders"). Following this acceleration, also on the Grant Date, each Eligible Optionholder exercised, on a net settled basis, substantially all of his or her outstanding in-the-money vested and unvested options to acquire LINTA shares and LVNTA shares (the "Eligible Options"), and:

	•	with respect to each vested Eligible Option, Liberty granted the Eligible Optionholder a vested new option with substantially the same terms and conditions as the exercised vested Eligible Option;

	•	and with respect to each unvested Eligible Option:

	◦	the Eligible Optionholder sold to Liberty the shares of LINTA or LVNTA, as applicable, received upon exercise of such unvested Eligible Option and used the proceeds of that net sale to purchase from Liberty at that price an equal number of restricted LINTA or LVNTA shares, as applicable, which have a vesting schedule identical to that of the exercised unvested Eligible Option; and

	◦	Liberty granted the Eligible Optionholder an unvested new option, with substantially the same terms and conditions as the exercised unvested Eligible Option, except that (a) the number of shares underlying the new option is equal to the number of shares underlying such exercised unvested Eligible Option less the number of restricted shares purchased from Liberty as described above and (b) the exercise price of the new option is the closing price per LINTA or LVNTA share, as applicable, on The Nasdaq Global Select Market on the grant date.
	This Option Exchange was considered a modification under ASC 718 - Stock Compensation and resulted in incremental compensation expense in 2012 and over the remaining vesting periods of the new unvested options and the restricted shares, which is included in unrecognized compensation.

	Upon employee exercise of the Options, the exercise price is remitted to Liberty in exchange for the shares. The aggregate intrinsic value of all options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $37 million, $97 million and $20 million, respectively.
	The weighted average fair value at date of grant of a LINTA Option granted, excluding the Option Exchange, during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $8.16, $6.66 and $7.32, respectively. The weighted average fair value at date of grant of a LINTA Exchange Option granted during the year ended December 31, 2012 was $6.94. The weighted average fair value at date of grant of a LVNTA Option granted, excluding the Option Exchange, during the year ended December 31, 2012 was $15.22. The weighted average fair value at date of grant of a LVNTA Exchange Option granted during the year ended December 31, 2012 was $25.69.
	During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the fair value of each LINTA Option was determined as of the date of grant using the Black‑Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:


		2013		2012		2011

	Weighted average expected volatility	38.3	%	41.9	%	44.8	%
	Expected term (years)	6.2		5.2		5.9

	Risk free interest rate	1.1	%	0.8	%	1.2%-2.5%

Expected dividend yield	—		—		—

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the fair value of each LVNTA Option was determined as of the date of grant using the Black‑Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:


	2012

Weighted average expected volatility	49.9	%
Expected term (years)	4.9

Risk free interest rate	0.6	%
Expected dividend yield	—

Expected volatility is based on historical and implied volatilities of LINTA and LVNTA common stock over a period commensurate with the expected term of the Options. The Company estimates the expected term of the Options based on historical exercise and forfeiture data. The volatility used in the calculation for the Options is based on the historical volatility of Liberty's stocks and the implied volatility of publicly traded Liberty options. The Company uses a zero dividend rate and the risk-free rate for Treasury Bonds with a term similar to that of the subject Options.
The fair value of the Options is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures. Based on QVC's historical experience of option pre-vesting cancellations, the Company has assumed an annualized forfeiture rate of 10% for all participants. We will record additional expense if the actual forfeiture rate is lower than estimated, and will record a recovery of prior expense if the actual forfeiture is higher than estimated.
As of December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded $31 million, $29 million and $18 million, respectively, of stock‑based compensation expense related to the Options. The total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested Options, net of estimated forfeitures, was approximately $50 million as of December 31, 2013. Such amount will be recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. These LINTA Options had a weighted average life of 4.8, 4.0 and 4.1 years for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These LVNTA Options had a weighted average life of 4.5 and 5.6 years at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

	The Company calculates its interim income tax provision by applying its best estimate of the annual expected effective tax rate to its ordinary year-to-date income or loss. The tax or benefit related to significant, unusual or extraordinary items that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effect are individually computed and recognized in the interim period in which those items occur.	Income tax expense (benefit) consisted of the following:
	The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and significant judgment including, but not limited to, the expected operating income for the year, projections of the proportion of income earned and taxed in foreign jurisdictions, permanent and temporary differences as a result of differences between amounts measured and recognized in accordance with tax laws and financial accounting standards, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets. The accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, additional information is obtained or as the tax environment changes. To the extent that the estimated annual effective tax rate changes during a quarter, the effect of the change on the prior quarters is included in the tax expense for the current quarter.
	For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded a tax provision of $83 million, which represented an effective tax rate of 37.2%. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recorded a tax provision of $157 million, which represented an effective tax rate of 37.5%. These rates differ from the U.S. federal income tax rate of 35.0% due primarily to state tax expense.
	QVC is party to ongoing discussions with the Internal Revenue Service under the Compliance Assurance Process audit program. The Company files Federal tax returns on a consolidated basis with its parent company, Liberty. The Company, or one of its subsidiaries, files income tax returns in various states and foreign jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2014, the Company, or one of its subsidiaries, was under examination in California, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, the City of New York and Pennsylvania, as well as in Germany, the U.K, and Italy.		Years ended December 31,
	The amounts of the tax-related balances due to Liberty at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were $22 million and $78 million, respectively, and were included in accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.	(in millions)	2013			2012		2011
	The Company previously entered into a Tax Liability Allocation and Indemnification Agreement (the “Tax Agreement”) with Liberty. The Tax Agreement establishes the methodology for the calculation and payment of income taxes in connection with the consolidation of the Company with Liberty for income tax purposes. Generally, the Tax Agreement provides that the Company will pay Liberty an amount equal to the tax liability, if any, that it would have if it were to file as a consolidated group separate and apart from Liberty, with exceptions for the treatment and timing of certain items, including but not limited to deferred intercompany transactions, credits, and net operating and capital losses. To the extent that the separate company tax expense is different from the payment terms of the Tax Agreement, the difference is recorded as either a dividend or capital contribution.

	Net deferred tax liability	$	(1,164	)	(1,259	)
	In the above table, valuation allowances exist due, in part, to the uncertainty of whether or not the benefit of certain foreign tax credits will ultimately be utilized for income tax purposes.
	The Company has recognized tax benefits from the exercise of employee stock options that reduced taxes payable and were credited to additional paid-in capital. The amount of the tax benefits is reported in the consolidated statements of equity.
	The Company entered into a Tax Liability Allocation and Indemnification Agreement (the "Tax Agreement"), dated April 26, 2004, with Liberty. The Tax Agreement establishes the methodology for the calculation and payment of income taxes in connection with the consolidation of the Company with Liberty for income tax purposes. Generally, the Tax Agreement provides that the Company will pay Liberty an amount equal to the tax liability, if any, that it would have if it were to file as a consolidated group separate and apart from Liberty, with exceptions for the treatment and timing of certain items, including but not limited to deferred intercompany transactions, credits, and net operating and capital losses. To the extent that the separate company tax expense is different from the payment terms of the Tax Agreement, the difference is recorded as either a dividend or capital contribution. The differences recorded during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 were $45 million, $47 million and $10 million in dividends, respectively, and related primarily to foreign tax credits recognized by QVC that are creditable under the Tax Agreement when and if utilized in Liberty's consolidated tax return. The amounts of the tax-related balance due to Liberty at December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $78 million and $70 million, respectively, and are included in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
	The Company has provided for U.S. income taxes on the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries. The Company expects the amount of foreign tax credits available on those undistributed earnings to offset the U.S. income tax liability and to result in an incremental benefit related to the increased utilization of foreign tax credits. The amount of the U.S. income tax benefit recorded in the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 on those undistributed earnings was $3 million, $12 million and $10 million, respectively.
	A reconciliation of the 2013 beginning and ending amount of the liability for unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:


	(in millions)

	Balance at January 1, 2013	95

	Decreases related to prior year tax positions	(11	)
	Increases related to current year tax positions	12

	Settlements	(7	)
	Balance at December 31, 2013	89

	Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2013 are potential benefits of $58 million (net of a $31 million federal tax effect) that, if recognized, would affect the effective rate on income from continuing operations.
	The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company did not have a material amount of interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits or tax penalties.
	The Company has tax positions for which the amount of related unrecognized tax benefits could change during 2014. These include federal transfer pricing and nonfederal tax issues. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits related to these issues could have a net decrease of $24 million in 2014 as a result of potential settlements, lapsing of statute of limitations and revisions of settlement estimates.
	The Company participates in a consolidated federal return filing with Liberty. As of December 31, 2013, the Company's tax years through 2009 are closed for federal income tax purposes, and the IRS has completed its examination of the Company's 2010, 2011, and 2012 tax years. The Company's 2013 tax year is being examined currently as part of the Liberty consolidated return under the IRS's Compliance Assurance Process ("CAP") program. The Company, or one of its subsidiaries, files income tax returns in various states and foreign jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2013, the Company, or one of its subsidiaries, was under examination in California, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, the City of New York and Pennsylvania, as well as in Germany and the U.K.

Each of the Company's operating segments are retailers of a wide range of consumer products, which are marketed and sold primarily by merchandise-focused televised-shopping programs as well as via the Internet and mobile applications in certain markets. The Company has operations in the U.S., Japan, Germany, the U.K. and Italy. As such, the Company has identified five reportable segments: the U.S., Japan, Germany, the U.K. and Italy.
	The Company evaluates performance and makes decisions about allocating resources to its operating segments based on financial measures such as net revenue, Adjusted OIBDA, gross margin, average sales price per unit, number of units shipped and revenue or sales per subscriber equivalent. The Company defines Adjusted OIBDA as revenue less cost of sales, operating expenses, and selling, general and administrative expenses (excluding stock-based compensation). The Company believes this measure is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its segments, including the ability to service debt and fund capital expenditures. In addition, this measure allows management to view operating results and perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking among our businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. This measure of performance excludes depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation, that are included in the measurement of operating income pursuant to U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, Adjusted OIBDA should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, operating income, net income, cash flow provided by operating activities and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early application is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.
