22.What is XBRL?
 XBRL (Extensible Business Reporting Language) is a freely available electronic language for business reporting. XBRL is a reporting format that provides an identifying tag for each reported item (narrative, data, or other types of content). This format provides a set of consistent terms, labels, and relevant contextual information that facilitate the comparison and retrieval of information. It intended to provide cheaper access to business information and makes the analysis of that information more accurate and timely. XBRL is also flexible enough to accommodate future accounting standards and direction.


23.When and why did Xerox join the Voluntary Filing Program sponsored by the SEC?
 Xerox Corporation was accepted into the voluntary interactive data pilot program sponsored by the SEC in March 2006. The benefits of participation in the pilot include:

  • Expedited reviews of filings by the SEC
  • Ability to offer the SEC feedback and suggestions on XBRL
  • Puts us at the forefront of the new best practice in financial reporting
  • Gives us the opportunity to work with services providers promoting XBRL products and services
  • Allows us to proceed in a measured fashion rather then having to implement quickly at a higher cost when XBRL becomes the mandate.


24.What will be the content of Xerox’s XBRL filings and when will they be filed?
 Xerox will file its financial statements as part of a Form 8-K in accordance with SEC guidelines. Currently, voluntary XBRL filers are not required to file notes to the financial statements in XBRL format. XBRL filings will be within a reasonable time period subsequent to the filing of our Forms 10-Q and 10-K.


25.What are the benefits of XBRL?
 XBRL aims to improve the efficiency of communication to investors. XBRL benefits also include reducing the cost and increasing the efficiency of analyzing and reporting business information, as well as increasing the re-usability of financial statement information.
