www.annualreport.ford.com Ranger 2 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report “ WE ARE ANTICIPATING NEW CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES THAT ARE EMERGING, SPECIFICALLY THOSE AROUND THE FUTURE OF TRANSPORTATION.” In 2012 Ford Motor Company continued to go further to meet the needs of our customers, the challenges of our industry and the issues confronting our world. Our efforts produced strong financial results and our fourth year in a row of positive net income.

We expect 2013 to be another strong year for our company.

We anticipate our outstanding performance in North America will continue, with higher pre-tax profits than in 2012. We are refreshing our entire product line in South America and continuing to invest for growth in Asia Pacific Africa. The transformation of our European operations, which is aimed at achieving profitability under difficult economic conditions, is on track and ongoing.

We will continue to focus on producing vehicles with best- in-class quality, fuel efficiency, safety, smart design and value – built on global platforms. They will help us toward our goal of increased global sales and market share, as well as support our ongoing commitment to reducing the environmental impact of our vehicles and operations.

Our strong showing in the electrified vehicle market is a good example of how great products can help build a strong business as well as a better world. In 2012 we introduced six new electrified vehicles in North America, including hybrid, plug-in hybrid and pure battery electric models. By offering a variety of vehicles, we make it easier for customers to embrace fuel-saving technologies.

As a result of our aggressive move into this growing segment we sold more hybrids in the U.S. in the fourth quarter of 2012 than in any other quarter in our history, and that strong momentum has continued in 2013. Looking further ahead, we are anticipating new challenges and opportunities that are emerging, specifically those around the future of transportation. Currently there are a billion vehicles on the road worldwide, a number that is expected to double by 2020 and double again by mid- century. As the number of vehicles on the road continues to grow, mobility issues are expected to emerge in many major urban areas, potentially presenting a serious challenge to economic, social and environmental progress.

To help address this issue, we are committed to being the automotive leader in wireless communication technology, developing vehicles that communicate with each other and the world around them to improve safety and reduce traffic congestion.

As we move forward, our employees around the world continue to work together as a global team. We have a great plan, outstanding leadership and positive momentum.

We are determined to keep going further so that we can continue rewarding our shareholders and all of our stakeholders.

Thank you for your continued support of our efforts.

Executive Chairman March 14, 2013 A Message from the Executive Chairman Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 3 “ OUR PROVEN ONE FORD PLAN PUT US ON THE PATH TO PROFITABLE GROWTH, AND WE ARE CONFIDENT IT WILL KEEP US ON THAT PATH GOING FORWARD.” A Message from the President and CEO Ford Motor Company continued on our path to deliver profitable growth in 2012 by following our proven One Ford plan, despite the ongoing challenges in the global market.

Along the way, we achieved several important milestones, including restoring Ford’s investment grade status and reclaiming the Ford Blue Oval, resuming regular dividend payments to our shareholders and achieving 14 straight quarters of operating profit.

In a strong North America market, we set full year records for pre-tax profit and operating margins. In South America, we are in the middle of launching a new global product lineup.

In Europe, we responded to challenging economic conditions by beginning a transformation plan to aggressively accelerate our new product rollouts, strengthen our brand and restructure our manufacturing operations. In Asia Pacific Africa, we are undertaking an unprecedented investment program to grow our business in what is now the world’s largest automotive market.

The success of our One Ford plan to date gives us confidence that it will continue to create profitable growth for us in the future. We remain laser focused on the key aspects of our plan, which remain unchanged:

• Aggressively restructure to operate profitably at the current demand and changing model mix.

• Accelerate development of new products our customers want and value.

• Finance our plan and improve our balance sheet.

• Work together effectively as one team, leveraging our global assets.

By following this plan, we will continue to build great products, a strong business and a better world. Great Products The great products that we build at Ford drive our success.

We launched 25 vehicles and 31 powertrains globally in 2012, a testament to our ongoing commitment to product development. We also announced plans to revitalize our Lincoln brand as the Lincoln Motor Company, which will introduce an exciting new lineup of great luxury vehicles.

Our plan is centered on serving customers in all markets around the world with a full family of vehicles – small, medium and large; cars, utilities and trucks – that offer the very best quality, fuel efficiency, safety, smart design and value.

The best way to measure the success of our products is sales, and 2012 was a strong year. We sold 2.3 million vehicles in the United States in 2012. Ford is the only brand to top the 2 million mark in the United States since 2007, and it has topped 2 million for 2 years in a row. In Asia Pacific Africa, we sold more than 1 million vehicles for the first time, including record sales in China.

Our strong global performance was led by Focus, which was the best-selling nameplate in the world in 2012, and Fiesta, which was the best-selling B-Car in the world based on the latest global data. Ford also was the only brand to have three vehicles among the top 10 best-sellers worldwide, with the F-Series truck coming in as the fourth best-selling global nameplate.

Leveraging key new technologies across multiple regions and on global platforms helps drive tremendous scale and efficiency savings that can be reinvested, enabling us to have one of the freshest showrooms in the industry.

Our outstanding product lineup, which we are continually transforming and improving, is the foundation on which we have built our strong business.

Pictured with the Ford Escape, all-new Transit Connect and Fiesta ST from left to right:

Strong Business Our 2012 full year pre-tax operating profit, excluding special items, was $8 billion, or $1.41 per share. We delivered record results of $8.3 billion in North America, continued solid performance from Ford Credit of $1.7 billion, positive results in South America, continued investment in Asia Pacific Africa and began a challenging transition in Europe.

We remain committed to strengthening our balance sheet. We ended 2012 with Automotive gross cash of $24.3 billion, exceeding debt by $10 billion. We also have a strong liquidity position of $34.5 billion, an increase of $2.1 billion over 2011.

We also worked to de-risk our pension obligations, contributing $3.4 billion in cash contributions to our worldwide funded plans.

With an eye to the future, we continued our largest and fastest manufacturing expansion in more than 50 years, adding capacity to support growth plans in North America and Asia Pacific Africa.

In 2012, we added more than 8,100 hourly and salaried jobs in the U.S. as we increased production capacity and expanded other areas to meet the growing demand for our fuel-efficient, high-tech vehicles.

In Europe, we are moving quickly to carry out our transformation plan. As we did in North America, we are making tough choices and intelligent investments now to transform our European business for profitable growth in the future.

Additionally, we further strengthened and developed our leadership team by announcing the appointment of our chief operating officer, a new chief financial officer, a new Global Product Development leader and senior leadership changes for the Americas, Europe, Asia Pacific, Ford Credit and our Lincoln Brand. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 5 Better World Even as we strive to improve our products and enhance our business, we recognize that doing our part to contribute to a better world is at the core of our business. In addition to economic goals, we also pursue environmental and social objectives.

Ford is going further than our competitors by offering an industry-best seven Ford-brand vehicles in the U.S. that deliver 40 or more miles per gallon.

We reached this milestone by developing the best conventional and alternative powertrains. In 2012, we produced our 500,000th fuel-saving EcoBoost engine just three years after its launch. We also introduced six new electrified vehicles, including hybrids, plug-in hybrids and a pure battery electric vehicle.

We are giving customers the power of choice among a range of powertrains that generate fewer emissions and consume less gasoline.

Serving in our communities is another important part of building a better world. In 2012, 25,000 Ford employees and retirees volunteered more than 115,000 hours at 1,350 projects to help people in their local communities. As part of that effort, our seventh annual Global Week of Caring featured 12,000 employees, retirees and dealers working on more than 300 community projects on six continents. ONE FORD:

ONE Ford expands on the company’s four-point business plan for achieving success globally. It encourages focus, teamwork and a single global approach, aligning employee efforts toward a common definition of success and optimizing their collective strengths worldwide. The elements of ONE Ford are:

ONE TEAM:

ONE Ford emphasizes the importance of working together as one team to achieve automotive leadership, which is measured by the satisfaction of our customers, employees and essential business partners, such as our dealers, investors, suppliers, unions/councils and communities.

ONE PLAN:

• Aggressively restructure to operate profitably at the current demand and changing model mix.

• Accelerate development of new products our customers want and value.

• Finance our plan and improve our balance sheet.

• Work together effectively as one team.

ONE GOAL:

The goal of ONE Ford is to create an exciting and viable company delivering profitable growth for all. For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 6 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report Going Further In the coming year, we expect global growth to continue, despite ongoing challenges in the external environment. We anticipate global economic growth in the 2 to 3 percent range, and global industry sales of 80 million to 85 million units.

In North America, we expect our strong performance to continue, and we anticipate higher pre-tax profits than 2012, due to our strong Ford brand and products, the growing industry, a lean cost structure and our continued success in matching production with demand.

Conditions in South America will be uneven, with some countries experiencing growth while others face increasing economic and political risks. We expect results in the region to be about breakeven in 2013, as the benefits of new global products will be tempered by the competitive environment and currency risks across the region that are expected to affect our profits adversely.

Asia Pacific Africa also is expected to be about breakeven in 2013, as growing volume and revenue are offset by continued strong investment across the region. This investment will pay off as we look even further forward, and our goal is to have a full third of our global sales in Asia Pacific Africa by 2020.

In Europe, we are working to deliver our European transformation plan, but we expect weak economic conditions in several markets to extend into 2013 and industry volume to be lower in 2013 than 2012. As a result, we expect to incur another substantial loss in Europe in 2013. We believe that 2013 is likely the trough for European industry sales volume, and we expect industry sales volume and our results to begin to improve in 2014.

Overall, we expect 2013 will be another strong year for the Ford Motor Company with pre-tax operating profit about equal to 2012, Automotive operating-related cash flow to be higher than 2012, and pre-tax profit for Ford Credit to be about the same as 2012.

Our proven One Ford plan put us on the path to profitable growth, and we are confident it will keep us on that path going forward.

As always, we thank you for your support of our efforts.

For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 10 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 10 OVERVIEW RevenueOur Automotive sector's revenue is generated primarily by sales of vehicles,\ parts, and accessories; we generally treat sales and marketing incentives as a reduction to revenue. Revenue\ is recorded when all risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to our customers (generally, our dealers and distributors). For the majority of sales, this occurs when products are shipped from our manufacturing facilities. This is not the case, however, with respect to vehicles produced for sale to daily rental car companies that are subjec\ t to a guaranteed repurchase option. These vehicles are accounted for as operating leases, with lease revenue and p\ rofits recognized over the term of the lease. When we sell the returned vehicle at auction, we recognize a gain or los\ s on the difference, if any, between actual auction value and the projected auction value. In addition, revenue for\ finished vehicles we sell to customers or vehicle modifiers on consignment is not recognized until the vehicle is sold to \ the ultimate customer. Most of the vehicles sold by us to our dealers and distributors are fina\ nced at wholesale by Ford Credit. Upon Ford Credit originating the wholesale receivable related to a dealer's p\ urchase of a vehicle, Ford Credit pays cash to the relevant legal entity in our Automotive sector in payment of the dealer's obligation for the purchase\ price of the vehicle. The dealer then pays the wholesale finance receivable to Ford Credit whe\ n it sells the vehicle to a retail customer.

Our Financial Services sector's revenue is generated primarily from inte\ rest on finance receivables, net of certain deferred origination costs that are included as a reduction of financing\ revenue, and such revenue is recognized over the term of the receivable using the interest method. Also, revenue from operating leases, net of certain deferred origination costs, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term \ of the lease. Income is generated to the extent revenues exceed expenses, most of which are interest, depreciation, and \ operating expenses.

Transactions between our Automotive and Financial Services sectors occur in the ordinary course o\ f business. For example, we offer special retail financing and lease incentives to dealers' customers \ who choose to finance or lease our vehicles from Ford Credit. The estimated cost for these incentives is recorded as revenue reduction\ to Automotive sales at the later of the date the related vehicle sales to our dealers are re\ corded or the date the incentive program is both approved and communicated. In order to compensate Ford Credit for \ the lower interest or lease rates offered to the retail customer, we pay the discounted value of the incentive directly to Ford Credit w\ hen it originates the retail finance or lease contract with the dealer's customer. Ford Credit recognizes the amount over the life of the related contracts as an element of financing revenue. See Note 1 of the Notes t\ o the Financial Statements for a more detailed discussion of transactions and payments between our Automotive and Financial Services sectors. Costs and Expenses Our income statement classifies our Automotive total costs and expenses into two categories: (i) cost of \ sales, and (ii) selling, administrative, and other expenses. We include within cost of sales those costs related to the development, manufacture, and distribution of our vehicles, parts, and accessories. \ Specifically, we include in cost of sales each of the following: material costs (including commodity costs); freight co\ sts; warranty, including product recall and customer satisfaction program costs; labor and other costs related to the develop\ ment and manufacture of our products; depreciation and amortization; and other associated costs. We include within selling, administrative, and other expenses labor and other costs not directly related to the development a\ nd manufacture of our products, including such expenses as advertising and sales promotion costs. Certain of our costs, such as material costs, generally vary directly wi\ th changes in volume and mix of production. In our industry, production volume often varies significantly from quarter to quarter a\ nd year to year. Quarterly production volumes experience seasonal shifts throughout the year (incl\ uding peak retail sales seasons, and the impact on production of model changeover and new product launches). As we have seen in recent years, annual production volumes are heavily impacted by external economic factors, in\ cluding the pace of economic growth and factors such as the availability of consumer credit and cost of fuel. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 11 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 11 As a result, we analyze the profit impact of certain cost changes holdin\ g constant present-year volume and mix and currency exchange, in order to evaluate our cost trends absent the i\ mpact of varying production and currency exchange levels. We analyze these cost changes in the following categories: • Material excluding commodity costs - primarily reflecting the change in \ cost of purchased parts used in the assembly of our vehicles. • Commodity costs - reflecting the change in cost for raw materials (such\ as steel, aluminum, and resins) used in the manufacture of our products. • Structural costs - reflecting the change in costs that generally do not \ have a directly proportionate relationship to our production volumes, such as labor costs, including pension and he\ alth care; other costs related to the development and manufacture of our vehicles; depreciation and amortizati\ on; and advertising and sales promotion costs.

• Warranty and other costs - reflecting the change in cost related to warra\ nty coverage, including product recalls and customer satisfaction actions, as well as the change in freight and \ other costs related to the distribution of our vehicles and support for the sale and distribution of parts and acce\ ssories. While material (including commodity), freight, and warranty costs gene\ rally vary directly in proportion to production volume, elements within our structural costs category are impacted to di\ ffering degrees by changes in production volume. We also have varying degrees of discretion when it comes to controlling t\ he different elements within our structural costs. For example, depreciation and amortization expense la\ rgely is associated with prior capital spending decisions. On the other hand, while labor costs do not vary directly wi\ th production volume, manufacturing labor costs may be impacted by changes in volume, for example when we increase overt\ ime, add a production shift or add personnel to support volume increases. Other structural costs, such as \ advertising or engineering costs, do not necessarily have a directly proportionate relationship to production vol\ ume. Our structural costs generally are within our discretion, although to varying degrees, and can be adjusted over ti\ me in response to external factors. We consider certain structural costs to be a direct investment in future \ growth and revenue. For example, increases in structural costs are necessary to grow our business and imp\ rove profitability as we expand around the world, invest in new products and technologies, respond to increasing in\ dustry sales volume, and grow our market share.

Automotive total costs and expenses for full-year 2012 was $121.6 billio\ n. Material costs (including commodity costs) make up the largest portion of our Automotive total costs and expenses, representing in 2012 about two-thir\ ds of the total amount. Of the remaining balance of our Automotive costs and expenses, the largest piece is structural costs. Although material costs are our largest absolute cost, our margins can b\ e affected significantly by changes in any category of costs.

Key Economic Factors and Trends Affecting the Automotive Industry Global Economic Conditions. During 2011, global economic growth slowed to about 2.5% from 4% in 2010, as the worsening debt crisis in Europe, regime changes in North Africa, natural disasters in Japan and Thailand, and moderating economic growth in several key newly-developed and emerging m\ arkets all contributed to slow growth. Global growth in 2012 remained at the relatively low level of about 2.5%\ due to the European debt crisis, slowing of Chinese economic growth, and moderate pace of recovery in the United Sta\ tes. During 2013, global economic growth is expected to remain in the 2% - 3% range. The European debt crisis remains a key risk to economic growth. The current economic performance in many European countries, particularly Gr\ eece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain, is being hampered by excessive government debt levels and the resulting bud\ get austerity measures that are contributing to weak economic growth. The EU, the European Central Bank, and the International Monetary Fund have provided important support for many of these countries undergoing s\ tructural changes. During 2013, economic growth is likely to remain weak in these markets, even though financial \ markets have begun to stabilize. The U.K.

government has implemented budget cuts and tax increases that will depre\ ss growth, although the labor market has stabilized in recent months. Uncertainties associated with the European debt crisis, and policy respo\ nses to it, could impact global economic performance in 2013. Although housing is stabilizing in some of the worst hit markets, such a\ s the United States, the prospect of a strong economic rebound is hampered by fiscal tightening. \ For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 12 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 12 Global industry vehicle sales volume (including medium and heavy truck)\ is estimated to have increased to 81 million units in 2012, up more than 4 million units - or about 5% - f\ rom 2011 levels. In 2013, in light of the volatile external environment, global industry sales are projected to be in a ran\ ge of 80 million - 85 million units. Excess Capacity. According to IHS Automotive, an automotive research firm, the estimated automotive indust\ ry global production capacity for light vehicles (which as of 2011 includes an expanded truck segment compared with previous years) of about 108 million units exceeded global production b\ y about 26 million units in 2012. In North America and Europe, the two regions where the majority of industry reven\ ue and profits are earned, excess capacity as a percent of production in 2012 was an estimated 11% and 37%, respectively. According to production capacity data projected by IHS Automotive, global excess capacity conditions could continue for several\ years at an average of about 31 million units per year during the period from 2013 to 2017. Pricing Pressure. Excess capacity, coupled with a proliferation of new products being introduced in key s\ egments, will keep pressure on manufacturers' ability to increase prices. In Nor\ th America, the industry restructuring of the past few years has allowed manufacturers to better match production with dema\ nd, although Japanese and Korean manufacturers also have capacity (located outside of the region) direc\ ted to North America. In the future, Chinese and Indian manufacturers are expected to enter U.S. and European markets, fu\ rther intensifying competition. Although there has been some firming of pricing in the U.S. market, particularly \ in 2011, it seems likely that over the long term intense competition and apparent excess capacity will continue to put do\ wnward pressure on inflation-adjusted prices for similarly-contented vehicles in the United States and contribute to \ a challenging pricing environment for the automotive industry. In Europe, the excess capacity situation was exacerbated by weakening\ demand and the lack of reductions in existing capacity, such that negative pricing pressure is expected to continue for the fo\ reseeable future. Commodity and Energy Price Increases. Despite weak demand conditions, light sweet crude oil prices increased from an average of $80 per barrel in 2010 to $95 per barrel in 2011, before declining slightly to about $87 per barrel in late 2012. Commodity prices have declined recently, but over the longer term prices are likely to trend higher given global demand growth. Vehicle Profitability. Our financial results depend on the profitability of the vehicles we sel\ l, which may vary significantly by vehicle line. In general, larger vehicles tend to comm\ and higher prices and be more profitable than smaller vehicles, both across and within vehicle segments. For example,\ in North America, our larger, more profitable vehicles had an average contribution margin that was about 130% of our t\ otal average contribution margin across all vehicles, whereas our smaller vehicles had significantly lower contribut\ ion margins. As we execute our One Ford plan, we are working to create best-in-class vehicles on global platforms that\ contribute higher margins, and offering a more balanced portfolio of vehicles with which we aim to be among the leaders\ in fuel efficiency in every segment in which we compete. Increasing Sales of Smaller Vehicles . Like other manufacturers, we are increasing our participation in newl\ y- developed and emerging markets, such as Brazil, Russia, India, and China\ , in which vehicle sales are expected to increase at a faster rate than in most mature markets. The largest segments in these markets are small vehicles (i.e., Sub-B, B, and C segments). To increase our participation in these fast-growing markets, we are signi\ ficantly increasing our production capacity, directly or through joint ventures. In addition, we expect that incre\ ased demand for smaller, more fuel-efficient vehicles will continue in the mature markets of North America and Europe and, consequently, we have seen and expect in the future strong demand in those markets f\ or our small car offerings (including our new Ford Fiesta and Focus models that are based on globa\ l platforms). Although we expect positive contribution margins from higher small vehicle sales, one result of incr\ eased production of small vehicles may be that, over time, our average per unit margin decreases because small vehicles \ tend to have lower margins than medium and large vehicles. Currency Exchange Rate Volatility. The European debt crisis has contributed to recent financial market vola\ tility.

Coupled with the ongoing policy actions taken by central banks to suppor\ t the financial system, exchange rates have remained volatile. Most recently, the euro currency value has fluctuated as progress toward a solution t\ o the sovereign debt crisis remains highly uncertain; the yen has depreciated significan\ tly as a result of policy changes by the Japanese government and Bank of Japan. The high inflation in newly-developed and emerging markets and capital flight to perceived stable investments have started to erode the strengt\ h of some local currencies. In most markets, exchange rates are market-determined, and all are impacted by many different macroeconomic and policy factors, and thus likely to remain volatile. In some other markets, exchange rates a\ re heavily influenced or controlled by governments. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 13 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 13 Trade Policy. To the extent governments in various regions erect or intensify barriers \ to imports, or implement currency policy that advantages local exporters selling into the global \ marketplace, there can be a significant negative impact on manufacturers based in markets that promote free trade. While\ we believe the long-term trend is toward the growth of free trade, we have noted with concern recent developments in \ a number of regions. In Asia Pacific Africa, for example, the recent dramatic depreciation of the yen significantly r\ educes the cost of exports into the United States, Europe, and other global markets by Japanese manufacturers. Over a peri\ od of time, the emerging weakness of the yen can contribute to other countries pursuing weak currency policies by\ intervening in the exchange rate markets. This is particularly likely in other Asian countries, such as South Korea. As another example, government actions in South America to incentivize local production and balance trade are driving tr\ ade frictions between South American countries and also with Mexico, resulting in business environment instab\ ility and new trade barriers. We will continue to monitor and address developing issues around trade policy. Other Economic Factors. The eventual implications of higher government deficits and debt, with p\ otentially higher long-term interest rates, could drive a higher cost of capital over our \ planning period. Higher interest rates and/or taxes to address the higher deficits also may impede real growth in gross dome\ stic product and, therefore, vehicle sales over our planning period.

Trends and Strategies We remain firm in our belief that our continued focus on executing the fo\ ur key priorities of our One Ford plan enables us to go further for our customers, dealers, suppliers, employee\ s, shareholders, and other key constituencies:

• Aggressively restructure to operate profitably at the current demand and\ changing model mix; • Accelerate development of new products our customers want and value; • Finance our plan and improve our balance sheet; and • Work together effectively as one team, leveraging our global assets.

Despite the external economic environment in recent years, we have made \ significant progress in transforming our business. Aggressively Restructure to Operate Profitably Brands. In recent years, we have eliminated a number of brands from our portfo\ lio in order to devote fully our financial, product development, production, and marketing and sales and \ services resources toward further growing our core Ford and Lincoln brands. We sold Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover, and Volvo, and we discontinued the Mercury brand and further reduced our stake in Mazda. In 2012, we annou\ nced the revitalization of Lincoln reflecting the brand's distinct product strategy, including its own dedicated design studio, separate creative agency in\ New York, and financial services team to complement the vehicle acquisition and ow\ nership experience. Manufacturing. We are committed to maintaining an appropriate manufacturing footprint in\ markets around the world, both in the more mature markets in which we have an established p\ resence, and in fast-growing newly- developed and emerging markets. We are making substantial investments in newly-developed and emerging markets, including in China, India, and Thailand to increase our production capacity with flexible new manufactu\ ring plants. We and our unconsolidated affiliates in Asia Pacific Africa launched two new plants in 2012, and have announced that we expect to complete seven more plants in the region by \ mid-decade. We also are making substantial investments in North America to grow production as industry sales rebound, including the addi\ tion of 400,000 annual incremental units of production capacity during 2012 and \ significant hiring in the United States as part of our manufacturing capacity expansions. In October 2012, we also announced our plan to transform our European op\ erations in response to structural industry overcapacity in the region. Our plan targets all areas of the \ business, including product, brand, and cost. We have detailed an aggressive product acceleration in Europe, including pl\ ans to introduce 15 global vehicles within five years; we are taking steps to further strengthen our brand, and to enhan\ ce brand awareness in fast-growing emerging markets within the region; and we are moving to ensure a more efficient manufacturing footprint. As announced, we intend to close three European manufacturing facilities, which would affect approximately 6,200 positions. Our intent to close our assembly plant in Genk, Belgium is subject to an information a\ nd consultation process with employee representatives, which we have commenced. See "Outlook" for additional \ discussion of our European transformation plan.

We continue to work to strengthen our global supply base. As part of this process, we have been reducing the global number of production suppliers from 3,300 in 2004 to\ about 1,260 at year-end 2012. We have identified plans that will take us to a target of about 750 suppliers, a\ nd we are confident that our consolidation efforts will result in a stronger and healthier supply base. We continue to work closely with our suppliers to address any near- term capacity constraints as we continue to ramp up production. In addi\ tion, our move to global vehicle platforms increases our ability to source to common suppliers for the total global\ volume of vehicle components resulting in a smaller number of suppliers receiving a greater volume of purchases to s\ upport our global vehicle platforms and allowing us to gain greater economies of scale.

Ford and Lincoln Dealerships . Our dealers are a source of strength in North America and around the world, representing the face of Ford to local communities. Our goal is to achi\ eve a sustainable and profitable dealer network by rightsizing the number of dealerships, identifying the right location\ s, and ensuring the appropriate branded facilities to satisfy current and future demand. We are adding dealerships rapidly in markets in our Asia Pacific Africa region where industry volume is growing at a rapid pace. Our network includes \ about 460 dealerships in China, and about 170 dealerships in India. We have plans to continue our expansion of these networks, in addition to\ the dealership networks in our growth markets of Brazil and Russia. We have completed planned dealer consolidations in the United States to rightsize the number of Ford and Lincoln outlets, particularly\ in our largest 130 metropolitan markets. As part of these efforts, we have reduced the number of outlets in our U.S. Ford and Lincol\ n network from about 4,400 at the end of 2005 to about 3,290 at the end of 2012. This has contributed to increased profitability of our U.S. dealers as they have grown their businesses by investing in their facilities, emplo\ yees, and communities while continuously striving to improve the experience of retail customers.

Product Development. Our One Ford global product development system is fully operationalize\ d, utilizing global platforms to deliver customer-focused programs rapidly and efficiently across global markets. Through our "hub and satellite" approach, one lead product development engineering center - t\ he hub - is assigned for each global vehicle line, thereby ensuring global scale and efficiency through common designs, parts, suppliers, and manufacturing processes. The hubs are supported by regional engineering centers - satellites - wh\ ich also help deliver products tuned to local market customer preferences while maintaining global desi\ gn DNA. Typical delivery metrics for global programs include 80% part commonality, 75% pre-sourcing to global suppliers, and 100% common manufacturing an\ d assembly process. The global Ford lineup is now one of the most extensive in the industry \ and includes a full spectrum of offerings from innovative small cars (B-platform products) such as the B-MAX sol\ d in Europe to large commercial trucks sold around the world. The strength of our One Ford plan has enabled a focus on delivering the \ industry's best refresh rate, sustained and funded by efficiencies and delivered by a world-class global network of engineering \ centers. We agree with external analysts that a sustained fresh showroom is a good indicat\ or of long-term market share growth.

We are making swift progress on our commitment to platform consolidation.\ In 2007, we utilized 27 different vehicle platforms. By 2014, we will have 14 total platforms, and we are\ on track to meet our target of nine core platforms globally. By 2013, more than 87% of our global volume will be produced across j\ ust nine core platforms. One of these platforms, our global C-platform, which underpins a number \ of unique vehicles including the best-selling Focus, will produce more platform volume than any other automaker - evid\ ence small cars are a clear global priority. Our new B-sized Fiesta and C-sized Focus are now among the best-selling \ nameplates in the world. Over the past few years, we have been reinventing our global portfolio of vehicles - s\ mall, medium, large, cars, utilities and trucks - and have a mid-decade target of selling approximately 8 million vehicles\ around the world. In 2013, we also are focused on strategic opportunities around commercia\ l vehicles. The global commercial vehicle industry represented approximately 17 million units in 2012, and\ is forecasted to grow by 4.8 million units - or 28% - through 2017. Ford has been the best-selling brand of commercial \ vehicles in North America for 28 years. In Europe, Transit vans are the best-selling medium commercial brand. We plan to leverage these strengths through a common global family of commercial vehicles across all applicable market\ s. Our full spectrum of van products now carries the Transit badge umbrella and spans three platforms, including the B-sized Transit Courier; C-sized Transit Connect; full-size, one-ton front-wheel-drive Transit Custom; and full-size, two- ton rear-wheel-drive Transit - providing right-sized Built Ford Tough products for all customer applications and markets. Our new lineup of full-size Transit commercial vans will offer the largest available selection of configurations and engine types to global customers (and provide an initial average scale \ of more than 475,000 units annually). In Europe, the Transit Custom, which launched in 2012, won the 2013 International Van of the Year award. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 15 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 15 We also will supplement our commercial van line with personal-use variant\ s, including the Tourneo wagon offerings, delivering premium look and feel to discerning customers and ad\ ditional premium revenue.

Further proof of our commitment to truck leadership is our 36 years as America's top truck producer. In 2012, our F-Series outsold its nearest competitors by a wide margin. At the 2013 North American International Auto Show, we provided a glimpse of our strategy to protect and expand our truck leade\ rship by showing the Ford Atlas Concept - which won Autoweek Magazine's Most Significant vehicle award. The bold emotive styling, innovative features, and fuel economy leadership intentions are more than a hint of the designs t\ o come.

Our market strength in trucks is due to great products and strong custom\ er relationships - Ford trucks are clear leaders in commercial subcategories, including mining, construction, oil\ and energy, small business, etc. Our future market expectations are further bolstered by global economic recovery in\ dicators.

Additionally, Ford Motor Company is firmly committed to the transformation and succe\ ss of the Lincoln brand. The 2013 Lincoln MKZ is our first transformational product - with four all-n\ ew Lincolns in total launching within the next four years. Each will deliver:

• A uniquely Lincoln experience, inside and out - built on our core platfor\ ms, leveraging global scale and efficiencies • Design excellence that is stunning and understated, with premium ameniti\ es offered on every nameplate • Product excellence that is enabled by class-leading technologies • The full spectrum of customer services that discerning luxury customers \ expect and appreciate Lincoln is focusing on the largest and fastest-growing segments of the l\ uxury market, with the intention of having all-new entries competing in 90% of the premium industry by 2015.

The global premium industry is projected to grow 39% by 2017. China wil\ l play a key role in that period. By 2017, the United States and China will represent 50% of the global premium opp\ ortunity - exactly why Lincoln recently announced plans to enter China, the single largest car market in the wor\ ld. Accelerate Development of New Products Our Customers Want and Value Our global product strategy is to serve our key geographic markets with \ a complete family of small, medium and large, cars, utilities and trucks that have best-in-class design and qua\ lity, are environmentally responsible, and contain high-value feature content. The result of this strategy is a full line of vehicles that:

• Have bold, emotive exterior design • Are great to drive • Are great to sit in (with the comfort and convenience of a second home \ on wheels and exceptional quietness) • Provide fuel economy as a reason to buy • Are unmistakably a Ford or Lincoln in look, sound and feel • Provide exceptional value and quality Developing products customers want and value for Ford and Lincoln demand\ s consistent focus on our commitment to lead in four key areas - Quality, Green, Safe and Smart.

Quality. We have made significant strides in recent years to achieve world-class l\ evels of quality and desirability. This has been accomplished by following an established global set of dis\ ciplined, standardized processes that are aimed at making us a leader in automotive quality. Via our common global management team, we are leveraging our assets by eliminating duplication, implementing best practices and utili\ zing a systematic approach to quality.

Overall, we expect quality to improve in 2013, including improvement in\ North America, where we are making progress addressing specific customer concerns. We already have made steady and significant progress in South America, Europe, and Asia Pacific Africa. In fact, using the key quality measure of "things gone wrong" ("TG\ W") per 1,000 vehicles at three months in service, as measured by Global Quality Research System, a Ford-sponsored competit\ ive research survey, we had our best performance of the last five years in 2012 in South America, Europe, and Asia Pacific Africa, and we expect to build on this solid accomplishment in 2013.

For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 16 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 16 Green. Our commitment and approach to sustainability is unique in the indust\ ry. We prefer to provide our customers the power of choice. All Ford front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive global platforms are engi\ neered to accept a full technology range of gasoline, diesel, hybrid, plug-in hybr\ id or electric vehicle propulsion systems. That concept, coupled with our commitment to standardized flexible production\ facilities, provides Ford the advantage of producing vehicles to meet unique customer preferences or changes across\ markets real-time as they occur. More importantly, our commitment to provide fuel economy leadership with every all-new o\ r significantly refreshed product is unwavering.

The new C-platform is a good example. The 2013 Focus SFE, with 2.0-liter gasoline engine technology, is among the fuel economy leaders in the United States, delivering an EPA-rated 40 mpg on the highway. In Europe, the same Focus with a 1.6-liter diesel enjoys fuel economy/CO 2 leadership in the most competitive diesel market in the world. The same Focus is also available in North America as a full battery-electric vehicle with leadership in charge rat\ e and range. Focus Electric has been certified by EPA to offer 110 MPGe in the city. Additionally, the 2013 C-MAX Hybrid and C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid sold in North America are built on the same C-platform and deliver leadership against \ competitive vehicles. Lastly, our first global C-size sports car, Focus ST, delivers more than 250 horsepower from an advanced 2.0-liter EcoBoost ® engine; Focus ST offers driving excitement and leadership in fuel economy against its competitors. All of these vehicles, from Focus Electric and C-MAX Energi to the high-\ performance Focus ST, are built for North America at the same plant - Michigan Assembly Plant - running on the same line resulting in lower overall costs. South America and Asia Pacific regions are rapidly evolving to embrace fuel economy and lo\ w-emissions technologies as well. Therefore, Ford is accelerating migration of world-class EcoBoost, hybri\ d and next-generation diesels to those markets at the same time we are leveraging global platf\ orms and top hats. That translates into global- scale cost and investment efficiencies as well as ongoing affordable freshening and technology cadence across all markets.

Safe. We are strengthening our safety leadership by focusing on three key areas\ - addressing driver behavior, enhancing crash protection even further, and pioneering the next frontier of safety with driver-assist crash-av\ oidance technologies.

For example, we introduced MyKey ® to help parents encourage teenagers to drive more safely and fuel efficiently, and to increase safety belt usage. MyKey - which debuted on the 2010 Fo\ cus and Taurus, and is now standard on most Ford and Lincoln models - allows owners to program a key that can l\ imit the vehicle's top speed and audio volume as well as mute the audio if front seat occupants are not buckled\ up. For 2013, the SYNC "Do Not Disturb" feature was added to MyKey. We also are the leader in another dimension of driver behavior - enabling\ drivers to more safely operate vehicles during recent years in which we have seen a\ sharp growth in the number of personal electronic devices (e.g., cell phones, MP3 players, etc.). Our SYNC s\ ystem provides hands-free connectivity, with more than 5 million SYNC-equipped vehicles on the road, and our just-lau\ nched second generation of SYNC has added a "Do Not Disturb" feature that allows users to redirect incoming \ messages and calls directly to their cellular mailbox. We expect to have 14 million SYNC-equipped vehicles on the road by 2015 a\ s we launch SYNC globally.

We have led the industry in migrating driver assist technologies from pre\ mium segments to family segments. We also offer a new advanced crash-avoidance technology - collision warning with b\ rake support - on several Ford and Lincoln vehicles including Ford Taurus, Fusion, Edge and Explorer, and Lincoln MKS, MKX, MKZ and MKT. This feature uses radar to monitor traffic directly ahead, and warns the driver with an authoritative beep and \ a red warning light projected on the windshield if a collision threat is detected. We also launched the industry's first-ever production use of inflatable seat belts, designed to provide additional protection \ for rear-seat occupants - often children and older passengers who can be more vulnerable to head, chest, and neck injuries.\ This technology is now incorporated into the 2013 Ford Flex and Explorer, and Lincoln MKT and MKZ, and we plan to expand further offerings to other vehicles globally.

Other global driver-assist features such as Blind Spot Information Syste\ m (BLIS ®), active park assist and adaptive cruise control have enjoyed strong customer demand and expanded vehicle \ applications. We also have begun offering the next suite of new safety features and driver-assistance technologies\ - we introduced Lane-Keeping Aid and Driver Alert on the 2013 Ford Explorer and Fusion and Lincoln MKS, MKZ and MKT in North America and the Ford Mondeo and Focus in Europe. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 17 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 17 The independent car safety organization, Euro NCAP, named the Focus Europe's best-in-class small family car, while Focus also became the industry's first vehicle to earn four Euro N\ CAP Advanced Technology Awards, being recognized for Active City Stop, Lane-Keeping Aid, Driver Alert, and Forward Alert. Features such as Speed Limiter, Torque Vectoring Control, Traffic Sign Recognition System, All-Seat BeltMinder ® and Power Child Locks also have been introduced in Europe on Focus, C-MAX, Grand C-MAX, Mondeo, S-MAX an\ d Galaxy.

Smart. We recently completed our seventh consecutive year participating in the I\ nternational Consumer Electronics Show ("CES"), which many media say is becoming more import\ ant than ever to automakers. At the 2013 show, Ford Chief Technical Officer Paul Mascarenas and Vice President of Engineering Hau Thai-Tang introduced the Ford Developer Program, the automotive industry's first smartphone app s\ oftware development program. The program allows for those outside the company with innovative ideas to work with \ Ford to create compelling and valuable new features and services for our customers at an unprecedented rate. Using\ SYNC AppLink ™, drivers are able to connect their smartphones and control their favorite mobile apps simply using th\ eir voice.

We continue to work on the future of the connected car, having introduced the Ford Evos Concept to North America for the first time at the 2012 CES. The Evos Concept showcases a dramatic four-door, four-seat fastback concept with a state-of-the-art lithium-ion plug-in hybrid powertrain th\ at previews our vision for customer-focused, intuitive technologies. Driver engagement technologies explore a seamle\ ss enhancement of the driving experience and smart electrified powertrain. Technologies use online data to check for potential travel routes and to \ set the most efficient braking, steering and suspension settings with efficient and enjoyable powertrain settings, and to reserve a charging parking spot at the driver's destination. We also built on our power of choice fuel-efficient powertrain momentum by showcasing and offering drives of the Fiesta with EcoBoost 1.0-liter three-cylinder engin\ e, Fusion Hybrid and C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid - which was named Official Car of CES at the 2013 show.

Building upon our demonstrated strategy to globally democratize our tech\ nology, Fusion and Explorer launched with a full suite of driver-assist technologies, each leading their resp\ ective segments. With features including Lane- Keeping Aid, adaptive cruise control and active park assist, both vehicles help \ drivers with a new level of convenience. Lane-Keeping uses a forward-facing camera to monitor the lane markings a\ head and warn drivers if they are drifting outside, and will even nudge the car back into the correct lane if the d\ river does not immediately respond. Adaptive cruise control features radar that tracks the vehicles ahead of you and \ keeps pace and maintains a safe distance, adjusting as necessary to the speed of traffic. Active park assist helps drivers minimize the stress associated with parallel parking. Using sonar, the car can identify an appropriate parallel parking spot and then ass\ ist the driver by automatically steering the car into the spot while the driver maintains \ control of the throttle and brakes. Additionally, the new Lincoln MKZ introduces Active Noise Control ("ANC"), which helps manage the sounds passengers\ hear inside the car. Using elements of the audio system, ANC technology will block out unwanted engine and road noise, helping improve the overall in-car experience.

We also are celebrating the first anniversary of the new Ford Silicon Valley Lab, which opened in 2012 in downtown Palo Alto, California. Our lab employees are working closely with local univ\ ersities including Stanford, new startup companies, and leading innovators such as Facebook, Microsoft, a\ nd Google.

Leveraging key new technologies across multiple regions and on global pl\ atforms helps drive tremendous scale and efficiency savings that can be reinvested, allowing us to have the freshes\ t showroom in the industry. In 2012, we showed growth in nearly every aspect of our business, with 25 new vehicl\ es launched around the world. We expect to grow even further in 2013, driven by having the freshest products in the\ business - the average age of our global product lineup improves again this year compared with 2012.

Our aggressive freshening cadence and relentless focus on efficiency is producing results that are greater than our major global full-line competitors. Our global programs continue to offer bold, emotive designs, high levels of quality, fuel economy leadership, top safety ratings, innovative technologies, an\ d greater feature content than higher-series competitive offerings, which will allow us to reduce brand discounts and increase reve\ nue across our portfolio. This overall combination of cost efficiency and revenue enhancement that is being realized from One Ford an\ d our global product strategy will help us continue to profitably grow and Go Further\ .

We expect to generate significant positive Automotive operating-related cash flow again in 2013. Work Together Effectively as One Team As part of the One Team approach, we have implemented a disciplined business plan process to\ regularly review our business environment, risks and opportunities, strategy, and plan, and to identify areas of our plan that need special attention while pursuing opportunities to improve our plan. Eve\ ryone is included and contributes, openness is encouraged, our leaders are responsible and accountable, we use facts an\ d data to make our decisions, high performance teamwork is a performance criteria - and we follow this proc\ ess every week, every month, and every quarter, driving continuous improvement. We believe this process gives us a clear picture of our business in real \ time and the ability to respond quickly and decisively to new issues and chan\ ging conditions - as we have done in the face of rapid changes in the market and business environment in the last few \ years. As needed, we convene daily management meetings to handle potentially acute situations, which allow\ s us to ensure that we are vigorously managing daily developments and moving decisively in response to changin\ g conditions.

In addition, we are partnering with and enlisting all of our stakeholder\ s to help us execute our plan to deal with our business realities and create an exciting and viable business going forw\ ard. We are reaching out and listening to customers, dealers, employees, labor unions, suppliers, investors, commu\ nities, retirees, and federal, state, and local governments. Each of these constituencies is a critical part of the suc\ cess of our business going forward. Realizing our goal of profitable growth for all is as important to these stakehold\ ers as it is to our shareholders.

• Market Factors: V olume and Mix - Primarily measures profit variance from changes in wholesale volumes (a\ t prior-year average margin per unit) driven by changes in industry volume, market share, an\ d dealer stocks, as well as the profit variance resulting from changes in product mix, including mix among vehi\ cle lines and mix of trim levels and options within a vehicle line Net Pricing - Primarily measures profit variance driven by changes in wholesale pric\ es to dealers and marketing incentive programs such as rebate programs, low-rate financing offers, and special lease offers • Contribution Costs - Primarily measures profit variance driven by per-unit changes in cost ca\ tegories that typically vary with volume, such as material costs (including commodity and compo\ nent costs), warranty expense, and freight and duty costs • Other Costs - Primarily measures profit variance driven by absolute change in cost ca\ tegories that typically do not have a directly proportionate relationship to production volume. These include mainly structural costs, described below, as well as all other costs, which include items such as litigation cos\ ts and costs related to our after-market parts, accessories, and service business. Structural costs include the \ following cost categories:

Manufacturing and Engineering - consists primarily of costs for hourly and salaried manufacturing- and engineering-related personnel, plant overhead (such as utilities and ta\ xes), new product launch expense, prototype materials, and outside engineering services Spending-Related - consists primarily of depreciation and amortization of our manufacturing\ and engineering assets, but also includes asset retirements and operating leases Advertising and Sales Promotions - includes costs for advertising, marketing programs, brand promotions, customer mailings and promotional events, and auto shows Administrative and Selling - includes primarily costs for salaried personnel and purchased services r\ elated to our staff activities and selling functions, as well as associated information te\ chnology costs Pension and OPEB - consists primarily of past service pension cost and other postretirement\ employee benefit costs • Exchange - Primarily measures profit variance driven by one or more of the followi\ ng: (i) impact of gains or losses arising from transactions denominated in currencies other than the funct\ ional currency of the locations, including currency transactions, (ii) effect of remeasuring income, assets, and liabilities of foreign subsidiar\ ies using U.S. dollars as the functional currency, or (iii) results of our foreign currency hedging activities • Net Interest and Other - Primarily measures profit variance driven by changes in our Automotive sector's centrally- managed net interest (primarily interest expense, interest income, and \ other adjustments) and related fair value market adjustments in our investment portfolio and marketable securities\ as well as other items not included in the causal factors defined above Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 21 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 21 2012 Compared with 2011Total Automotive. The charts below detail key metrics and the change in 2012 pre-tax resul\ ts compared with 2011 by causal factor. Automotive operating margin is defined as Automotive pre-tax results, excluding special items and Other Automotive, divided by Automotive revenue. As shown above, all four key metrics were about equal for 2012 compared \ with 2011, with pre-tax profit primarily reflecting higher net pricing and lower compensation costs (primarily t\ he non-repeat of 2011 UAW ratification bonuses), offset by higher costs, mainly structural, and unfavorable volume and mix.\ For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 22 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 22 Total costs and expenses for our Automotive sector for 2012 and 2011 was $121.6 billion and $122.4 billion, respectively, a difference of about $800 million.

Results by Automotive Segment. Details by segment of Income before income taxes are shown below for 2012.

Total Automotive pre-tax profit in 2012 was more than explained by profit from\ Ford North America. Ford South America was profitable and Ford Asia Pacific Africa incurred a small loss, while Ford Europe reported a substantial l\ oss. The loss in Other Automotive was more than explained by net interest expense.

For 2013, we expect net interest expense to be higher than our fourth qu\ arter 2012 run rate of $147 million, reflecting the increase in Automotive debt associated with our January 2013 issuance (discussed un\ der "Liquidity and Capital Resources - Automotive Sector") and lower interest income. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 23 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 23 Ford North America Segment. The charts below detail key metrics, and the change in 2012 pre-tax resu\ lts compared with 2011 by causal factor.

As shown above, all four key metrics increased for 2012 compared with 20\ 11. The increase in pre-tax profit for 2012 compared with 2011 primarily reflected favorable market factors, lower contribution costs\ , and lower compensation costs (primarily the non-repeat of 2011 UAW ratification bonuses), offset partially by higher structural cost.

For the year, total U.S. market share was down 1.3 percentage points, while U.S. ret\ ail share of retail industry declined 0.7 of a percentage point. The declines largely reflected the discontinuation of the Crown Victoria and Ranger, capacity constraints, and reduced availability associated with our Fusio\ n and Escape model changeovers.

For 2013, we expect the strong Ford North America performance to continue with higher pre-tax profits than 2012 an\ d an operating margin of about 10%. This reflects a growing industry, a strong Ford brand, an outstanding product line-up driven by industry-leading refresh rates, continued discipline in matchi\ ng our production with demand, and a lean cost structure.

The charts below detail key metrics, and the change in 2012 pre-tax resu\ lts compared with 2011 by causal factor. As shown above, all four key metrics decreased for 2012 compared with 20\ 11. The decrease in pre-tax profit for 2012 compared with 2011 primarily reflects higher costs and unfavorable exchange, primarily in\ Brazil, offset partially by higher net pricing.

For 2013, we expect Ford South America results to be about breakeven. Although results will benefit from new products recently launched or to be launched during the year, the competitive environment and currency risks across the region, especially in Venezuela, are expected to impact our profits adversely. In addition, government actions to incentivize local production and balance trade are driving trade frictio\ ns between South American countries and also with Mexico, resulting in business environment instability and new trade barr\ iers. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 25 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 25 Ford Europe Segment. The charts below detail key metrics, and the change in 2012 pre-tax resu\ lts compared with 2011 by causal factor. All four key metrics declined for 2012 compared with 2011. The decline in wholesales and revenue primarily reflected lower industry sales and market share, and reductions in dealer stocks. Excha\ nge was also a contributing factor adversely affecting net revenue. The decline in 2012 pre-tax results compared with 2011 primarily reflected unfavorable market factors. Our 2012 results are consistent with our guidance from October 2012, whe\ n we announced our European transformation plan. In 2013, compared with 2012, we expect to benefit from the non-re\ peat of dealer stock reductions to the degree incurred in 2012. However, consistent with our guidance, we will incur higher costs associated wi\ th restructuring actions, mainly investment in new products, as well as accelerated depreciation and cost\ s to implement our revised manufacturing footprint. Similar to our successful restructuring of North America, these are the investments we are making to enable the transform\ ation of our European business for profitable growth in the future. While our restructuring-related investments this year are consistent wit\ h our October 2012 guidance, our outlook for industry volume in 2013 has deteriorated - now expected to be at the lower end of\ the range of 13 million to 14 million units. In addition, we are being affected adversely by higher pension costs due to lower discount rates and\ a stronger euro. As a result, we now expect a loss of about $2 billion for 2013, compared with prior guidance\ of a loss about equal to 2012. The business environment in Europe remains uncertain. As is our practice, we will continue to monitor the situation and will t\ ake further action as necessary to ensure we remain on track to deliver our plan.

The charts below detail key metrics, and the change in 2012 pre-tax resu\ lts compared with 2011 by causal factor. As shown above, all four key metrics improved for 2012 compared with 201\ 1. The improvement in 2012 pre-tax results compared with 2011 is more than explained by higher net pricing, favorable volume and mix\ , and favorable exchange, offset partially by higher costs associated with new products and investme\ nts to support higher volumes and future growth.

Our market share in the region increased sequentially each quarter durin\ g 2012, with fourth quarter 2012 market share at 3.4%, as we continued to benefit from increased capacity and ne\ w products. Further demonstrating the growth we are experiencing in Asia Pacific Africa, since 2009, wholesale volume has about doubled, market share has\ improved by half a point and net revenue has increased by about two-thirds even t\ hough our reported revenue does not include the revenue of unconsolidated joint ventures in China. For 2013, we expect Asia Pacific Africa to be about breakeven. We expect our volume and revenue growth in the region to accelerate, supported by the launch of the all-new Kuga, EcoSp\ ort, and refreshed Fiesta across the region, as well as the launch of Mondeo and Explorer in China. This will be offset in large part by continued strong investment across the region to support our longer-range growth plans. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 27 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 27 2011 Compared with 2010Total Automotive. The charts below detail full-year key metrics and the change in full-yea\ r 2011 pre-tax operating results compared with full-year 2010 by causal factor. Automotive operating margin is defined as Automotive pre-tax operating results, excluding special items and Other Automotive, divided by Automotive revenue.

As shown above, full-year wholesale volume and revenue were higher than \ the year-ago period, but operating margin was down seven-tenths of a point; higher commodity costs reduced our mar\ gin by 1.8 points.

Total Automotive pre-tax operating profit in 2011 was $6.3 billion, an increase of $1 billion from 2010. The increase in earnings is explained by strong performance in market factors, and lower\ interest expense net of interest income (due primarily to lower debt levels). This was offset partially by higher contribution costs, higher structural costs (i\ ncluding the effect of higher volumes, new product launches, and investments to support\ our future product, capacity, and brand- building plans), higher compensation costs in North America, and unfavorable exchange.

Total Automotive pre-tax operating profit of $6.3 billion was led by a $6.2 bi\ llion profit from Ford North America. Ford South America earned a solid profit, while Ford Europe was about breakeven, in\ curring a small loss driven by the economic uncertainty in the region. Ford Asia Pacific Africa incurred a loss as well, more than explained by the impact of the Japan and Thailand natural disasters. The loss in Other Automotive was $601 million, reflecting higher interest expense net of interest income and unfavorable fair market valuation adj\ ustments, mainly for our investment in Mazda. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 29 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 29 Ford North America Segment. The charts below detail key metrics and the change in 2011 pre-tax operating profit compared with 2010 by causal factor.

As shown above, full-year wholesale volume and revenue improved in 2011 compared with the prior year. Operating margin declined one-tenth of a percentage point; this includes an advers\ e impact of 2 points due to higher commodity costs.

Ford North America reported a pre-tax operating profit of $6.2 billion, compared wi\ th a profit of $5.4 billion a year ago.

Higher net pricing reflects the strength of our brand and products, a di\ sciplined approach to incentive spending, and our ongoing practice to match production to customer demand. Favorable volu\ me and mix was more than explained by higher U.S. industry and dealer stocks. These were offset partially by unfavorable contribution costs reflecting higher commodity costs, higher material costs excluding commodities, and higher\ warranty and freight costs. Other costs reflect unfavorable structural costs.

As shown above, full-year wholesales and revenue increased compared with\ a year ago, while operating margin declined.

Ford South America reported a pre-tax operating profit of $861 million, compared wi\ th a profit of $1 billion a year ago.

The decline in earnings is more than explained by higher structural cost\ s (driven primarily by local inflation), higher contribution costs (more than explained by commodity costs), and unfav\ orable exchange, offset partially by favorable net pricing and volume and mix. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 31 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 31 Ford Europe Segment. The charts below detail key metrics and the change in 2011 pre-tax operating profit compared with 2010 by causal factor. As shown above, full-year wholesale volume and revenue improved in 2011 compared with the prior year. Operating margin declined in 2011, with higher commodity costs contributing a negative 1.5 points to Eur\ ope's full-year margin. Ford Europe reported a pre-tax operating loss of $27 million, compared w\ ith a profit of $182 million a year ago. The decline in results is more than explained by higher commodity costs and \ material costs excluding commodities, as well as unfavorable exchange. These costs were offset partially by higher net pricing and favorable volume and mix. Othe\ r reflects our continued investment in the Craiova facility in Romania in \ preparation for the production volume ramp-up in 2012, as well as lower parts and accessories profits.

As shown above, wholesales and revenue increased compared with a year ag\ o, while operating margin declined.

Ford Asia Pacific Africa reported a pre-tax operating loss of $92 million, compared with a\ profit of $189 million a year ago. The decline in results reflects higher costs (primarily structural cost\ s in support of Ford Asia Pacific Africa growth plans), unfavorable volume and mix (which includes the impact of event\ s in Japan and Thailand), and unfavorable exchange, offset partially by higher net pricing.

Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 33 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 33 FINANCIAL SERVICES SECTOR 2012 Compared with 2011As shown in the total Company discussion above, we present our Financial\ Services sector results in two segments, Ford Credit and Other Financial Services. Ford Credit, in turn, has two\ segments, North America and International.

Ford Credit. The chart below details the change in 2012 pre-tax profit compared with \ 2011 by causal factor: The decline in pre-tax profits is more than explained by fewer leases be\ ing terminated, which resulted in fewer vehicles sold at a gain and lower financing margin, as higher yielding a\ ssets originated in prior years run off.

Results of Ford Credit 's operations and unallocated risk management for the years ended Decembe\ r 31 are shown below (in millions): Income before income taxes 201220112012 Over/(Under) 2011 North America segment $1,550 $ 2,159 $ (609) International segment 249 371 (122) Unallocated risk management (a) (102 ) (126 ) 24 Income before income taxes $1,697 $ 2,404 $ (707) __________ (a) Consists of gains and losses related to market valuation adjustments to \ derivatives primarily related to movements in interest rates. The full-year decrease in Ford Credit 's North America segment pre-tax earnings is more than explained by fewer lease terminations, which resulted in fewer vehicles sold at a gain, and\ lower financing margin as higher yielding assets originated in prior years run off. The full-year decrease in its International segment pre-tax results is m\ ore than explained by the non-recurrence of 2011 foreign currency translation adjustments related to the discontinuatio\ n of financing in Australia, lower volume, and unfavorable lease residual performance, offset partially by higher financing margin.

In addition, at December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, includes net investment in operating leases before allowanc\ e for credit losses of $6.3 billion, $6.4 billion, and $6.2 billion, respectively, that have been included in securitization transactions but continue to\ be reported in Ford Credit's financial statements. The receivables are available only for payment of the debt and other obl\ igations issued or arising in the securitization transactions; they are not available to pay Ford Credit's other obligati\ ons or the claims of its other creditors. Ford Credit holds the right to the excess cash flows not needed to pay the debt and other obligations issue\ d or arising in each of these securitization transactions. See Note 17 of the Notes to the Financial Statements for more information regarding sec\ uritization transactions.

(b) Includes allowance for credit losses of $408 million, $534 million, and \ $854 million at December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

(c) Excludes unearned interest supplements related to finance receivables.

Receivables at December 31, 2012 increased from year-end 2011, primarily driven by increases in wholesale receivables and net investment in operating leases. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 35 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 35 Credit Losses. The charts below detail (i) annual trends of charge-offs (credit losses, net of recoveries), (ii) loss-to- receivables ("LTR") ratios (charge-offs divided by the average amount of receivables outstanding for the peri\ od, excluding the allowance for credit losses (also referred to as credit loss reserv\ es) and unearned interest supplements related to finance receivables), (iii) credit loss reserves, and (iv) Ford Cre\ dit's credit loss reserves as a percentage of end-of-period ("EOP") receivables:

Ford Credit's charge-offs are down from 2011, primarily reflecting lower repossessions in the United States and low\ er losses in all international regions, offset partially by lower recoveries in the United States. The LTR ratio is about one-third lower than in 2011, and is the lowest since Ford Credit started tracking LTRs more than thirty years ago.

Reserves and reserves as a percent of EOP receivables are both lower than a year ago reflecting the decrease in charge-offs. The allowance for credit losses is estimated using a combination of mode\ ls and management judgment, and is based on such factors as portfolio quality, historical loss performance, and receivable levels.

In purchasing retail finance and lease contracts, Ford Credit uses a pro\ prietary scoring system that classifies contracts using several factors, such as credit bureau information, credit bureau \ scores (e.g., FICO score), and contract characteristics. In addition to Ford Credit's proprietary scoring syste\ m, it considers other factors, such as employment history, financial stability, and capacity to pay. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, Ford Credit classified between 5% - 6% of the outstanding U.S. retail finance and lease contracts in its portfo\ lio as high risk at contract inception. For additional discussion, see "Critical Accounting Estimates - Allowance for Credit Losses" below.

Residual Risk. Ford Credit is exposed to residual risk on operating leases and simila\ r balloon payment products where the customer may return the financed vehicle to Ford Credit. Residual r\ isk is the possibility that the amount Ford Credit obtains from returned vehicles will be less than its estimate of the exp\ ected residual value for the vehicle. Ford Credit estimates the expected residual value by evaluating recent auction value\ s, return volumes for its leased vehicles, industry-wide used vehicle prices, marketing incentive plans, and vehicl\ e quality data. For additional discussion, see "Critical Accounting Estimates - Accumulated Depreciation on Vehicles Subject to Operating Leases" below.

North America Retail Operating Lease Experience Ford Credit uses various statistics to monitor its residual risk: • Placement volume measures the number of leases Ford Credit purchases in \ a given period; • Termination volume measures the number of vehicles for which the lease ha\ s ended in the given period; and • Return volume reflects the number of vehicles returned to Ford Credit by\ customers at lease-end.

For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 36 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 36 Ford Credit's North America segment accounted for 98% of its total operating leases at Decem\ ber 31, 2012. The following table shows operating lease placement, termination, and return\ volumes for this segment for the years ending December 31 (in thousands, except for percentages): 2012 20112010 Placements 257219120 Terminations 126246408 Returns 76144 281 Memo: Return Rates 60%59%69% In 2012, placement volumes were up 38,000 units compared with 2011, primarily reflecting higher industry sales. Termination volumes decreased by 120,000 units compared with last year, reflecting lower placement volumes in 2009. Return volumes decreased 68,000 units compared with last year, primarily reflecting lower terminations.

U.S. Ford and Lincoln Brand Operating Lease Experience. The following chart shows annual return volumes and auction values at incurred vehicle mix for vehicles returned in the resp\ ective periods. In 2012, Ford Credit's U.S. lease originations represented about 15% of total U.S. retail sales of Ford an\ d Lincoln brand vehicles, and the U.S. operating lease portfolio accounted for about 89% of Ford Credit's total investmen\ t in operating leases at December 31, 2012.

Ford Credit' s lease return volumes in 2012 were about 30% lower than 2011, reflecting primarily the lower lease placements in 2009. Its 2012 lease return rate was 62%, up 6 percentage\ points compared with 2011, reflecting a higher mix of 24 month contracts.

In 2012, Ford Credit's auction values for vehicles subject to 36-month l\ eases continued to increase, up $995 per unit from 2011. The increase primarily reflects vehicles with higher content, including \ a higher mix of Lincolns.

Ford Credit's worldwide net investment in operating leases was $14.7 bil\ lion at the end of 2012, up from $11.1 billion in 2011. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 37 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 37 2011 Compared with 2010The chart below details the change in 2011 pre-tax profit compared with 2010 by causal factor. The decline in Ford Credit's pre-tax profit reflects fewer leases being \ terminated and the related vehicles sold at a gain, and lower credit loss reserve reductions.

Our cash, cash equivalent\ s, and marketable securities primarily include U.S. Department of Treasury obligations, federal agency securities, bank time deposits with \ investment-grade institutions, corporate investment-grade securities, commercial paper rated A-1/P-1 or higher, and debt obligations of a select group of non-U.S. governments, non-U.S. governmental agencies, and supranational \ institutions. The average maturity of these investments ranges from 90 days to up to one year, and is adjusted based on market conditions and liquidity needs. We monitor our cash levels and average maturity on a daily basis. Within o\ ur Automotive gross cash portfolio, we currently do not hold investments in government obligations of Greece, Ireland, Italy\ , Portugal, or Spain, nor did we hold any at December 31, 2012.

In managing our business, we classify changes in Automotive gross cash into operating-related and other items (which includes the impact of certain special items, contributions to f\ unded pension plans, certain tax-related transactions, For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 38 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 38 acquisitions and divestitures, capital transactions with the Financial S\ ervices sector, dividends paid to shareholders, and other -- primarily financing-related). Our key liquidity metrics are o\ perating-related cash flow (which best represents the ability of our Automotive operations to generate cash), Automotive gross cash, and Automotive liquidity. Automotive gross cash and liquidity as of the dates shown were as follows (in billions)\ : December 31,2012 December 31, 2011 Gross cash $24.3 $ 22.9 Available credit lines Revolving credit facility, unutilized portion 9.58.8 Local lines available to foreign affiliates, unutilized portion 0.70.7 Automotive liquidity $34.5 $ 32.4 We believe the cash flow analysis reflected in the table below is useful \ to investors because it includes in operating- related cash flow elements that we consider to be related to our Automotive operating activities (e.g., capital spending) and excludes cash flow elements that we do not consider to be related to\ the ability of our operations to generate cash. This differs from a GAAP cash flow statement and differs from Net cash provided by/(used in) operating activities , the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

(c) Primarily distributions and tax payments received from Ford Credit.

(d) 2012 includes cash and marketable securities resulting from the consolid\ ation of AAI. With respect to "Changes in working capital," in general we carry relati\ vely low trade receivables compared to our trade payables because the majority of our Automotive wholesales are financed (primarily by Ford Credit) immediat\ ely upon sale of vehicles to dealers, which generally occurs at the time the\ vehicles are gate-released shortly after being produced. In addition, our inventories are lean because we build to ord\ er, not for inventory. In contrast, our Automotive trade payables are based primarily on industry-standard production suppl\ ier payment terms generally ranging between 30 days to 45 days. As a result, our cash flow tends to improve as wholesale volumes increas\ e, but can deteriorate significantly when wholesale volumes drop sharply. In addition, these working capital balances generally are subject to \ seasonal changes that can impact cash flow. For example, we typically experience cash flow timing differences associated with inventories and payables due to our annual summer and De\ cember shutdown periods, when production, and therefore inventories and wholesale volumes, are usually at their lo\ west levels, while payables continue to come due and be paid. The net impact of this typically results in cash outflows from changes i\ n our working capital balances during these shutdown periods.

Lenders under our Credit Agreement have commitments totaling $9.3 billion in a revolving credit facility that will mature on November 30, 2015, and commitments totaling an additional $307 million in a revolving\ credit facility that will mature on November 30, 2013. Our Credit Agreement is free of material adverse change clauses, restrictive financial covenants (for example, debt-to-equity limitation\ s and minimum net worth requirements) and credit rating triggers that could limit our ability to obtain funding. The Credit Agreement contains a liquidity covenant that requires us to maintain a minimum of $4 billion in the aggregate of dome\ stic cash, cash equivalents, and loaned and marketable securities and/or availability under the revolving credit fac\ ilities. On May 22, 2012, the collateral securing our Credit Agreement was automatically released upon our senior, unsecured, long-term debt being upgraded to investment grade by Fitch and Moody's. If our senior, unsecured, long-term debt does not maintain at least two investment gr\ ade ratings, the guarantees of certain subsidiaries will be reinstated.

At December 31, 2012, the utilized portion of the revolving credit facil\ ities was $93 million, representing amounts utilized as letters of credit. Less than 1% of the commitments in the r\ evolving credit facilities are from financial institutions that are based in Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, and Spain.

U.S. Department of Energy ("DOE") Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturer ("ATVM") Incentive Program. In September 2009, we entered into a Loan Arrangement and Reimbursement Agreement ("Arrangement Agreement") with the DOE, pursuant to which the DOE agreed to (i) arrange a 13-year mul\ ti-draw term loan facility (the "Facility") under the ATVM Program in the aggregate principal amount of up to $5.9 billion, (i\ i) designate us as a borrower under the ATVM Program and (iii) cause the Federal Financing Bank to enter into a Not\ e Purchase Agreement for the purchase of notes to be issued by us evidencing such loans. In August 2012, the Facility was fully drawn with $5.9 billion outstanding.\ We began repayment in September 2012 and at December 31, 2012, an aggregate\ of $5.6 billion was outstanding. The proceeds of the ATVM loan have been used to finance certain costs for fuel-efficient, advanced-technology vehicles. The principal amount of the ATVM loan bears interest at a blended rate based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time each draw was made (with the weighted-average interest rate on all such\ draws being about 2.3% per annum). The ATVM loan is repayable in equal quarterly installments of $148 million, w\ hich began in September 2012 and will end in June 2022.

European Investment Bank ("EIB") Credit Facility. On July 12, 2010, Ford Motor Company Limited, our operating subsidiary in the United Kingdom ("Ford of Britain"), entered into a c\ redit facility for an aggregate amount of £450 million (equivalent to $729 million at December 31, 2012) with the EIB. Proce\ eds of loans drawn under the facility are being used to fund costs for the research and development of fuel-efficient engines and commercial vehicles with lower emissions, and related upgrades to an engine manufacturing plant. The facility was fully drawn in the third quarter of 2010, and Ford of Britain had outstanding $729 million of loans at December 31, 2012. The loans are five-year, non- amortizing loans secured by a guarantee from the U.K. government for 80% of the outstanding principal amount and cash collateral from Ford of Britain equal to approximately 20% of the outstanding principal amount, and bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.9% per annum excluding a commitment fee of 0.30% to the U.K. government. Ford of Britain has pledged substantially all of its fixed assets, receivables and inventory to the \ U.K. government as collateral, and we have guaranteed Ford of Britain's obligations to the U.K. government related \ to the government's guarantee.

At December 31, 2012, this working capital facility, which supports vehicle exports from the United States, was fully drawn at $300 million. The facility will renew annually until June 15, 2015, provided that no p\ ayment or bankruptcy default exists and Ex-Im continues to have a perfected securi\ ty interest in the collateral, which consists of vehicles in transit in the United States to be exported to Canada, Mexic\ o, and other select markets.

Other Automotive Credit Facilities. At December 31, 2012, we had $901 million of local credit facilities available to non-U.S. Automotive affiliates, of which $140 million had been utilized. Of the $901 million \ of committed credit facilities, $345 million expires in 2013, $196 million expires in 2014, $318 million\ expires in 2015, and $42 million thereafter.

Net Cash. Our Automotive sector net cash calculation as of the dates shown was as foll\ ows (in billions): December 31, 2012 December 31, 2011 Gross cash $24.3 $ 22.9 Less: Long-term debt 12.9 12.1 Debt payable within one year 1.41.0 Total debt 14.3 13.1 Net cash $10.0 $ 9.8 Total debt at December 31, 2012 increased by about $1.2 billion from December 31, 2011, primarily reflecting the additional drawdowns of low-cost loans for advanced technology vehicle d\ evelopment and our renminbi-denominated debt issuance in Hong Kong.

Not shown in the table above is the $2 billion aggregate principal amoun\ t of 4.75% Notes due January 15, 2043 we issued in January 2013. With this issuance we took advantage of favorab\ le market conditions to issue low-cost, long-term debt, the proceeds of which have been used, in part, to redeem approxima\ tely $600 million principal amount of 7.50% Notes due June 10, 2043, with the remainder to be contributed to our fun\ ded pension plans during 2013 to support our pension de-risking actions (discussed below). This action is consistent with our mid-decade target of Automotive debt levels at about $10 billion.

Pension Plan Contributions and Strategy . Worldwide, our defined benefit pension plans were underfunded by $18.7 billion at December 31, 2012, compared with being underfunded by $\ 15.4 billion at December 31, 2011. The deterioration is more than explained by sharply lower discount rates, wi\ th the U.S. weighted-average discount rate declining to 3.84% at the end of 2012 from 4.64% at the end of 2011.

Our long-term strategy is to reduce the risk of our funded defined benef\ it pension plans, including minimizing the volatility of the value of our pension assets relative to pension liabil\ ities and the need for unplanned use of capital resources to fund the plans. The strategy will reduce balance sheet, cash flow, and income exposures and, in turn, reduce our risk profile. The key elements of this strategy include:

• Limiting liability growth in our defined benefit plans by closing partic\ ipation to new participants; • Reducing plan deficits through discretionary cash contributions; • Progressively re-balancing assets to more fixed income investments, with\ a target asset allocation to be reached over the next several years of about 80% fixed income investments and 20\ % growth assets, which will provide a better matching of plan assets to the characteristics of the liabilities\ , thereby reducing our net exposure; and • Taking other strategic actions to reduce pension liabilities, such as the\ voluntary lump sum payout program started in 2012 for U.S. salaried retirees.

In 2012, we contributed $3.4 billion to our worldwide funded pension pla\ ns, an increase of $2.3 billion compared with 2011. During 2013, we expect to contribute from Automotive cash and cash equivalents about $5 billion to our worldwide funded plans (including discretionary contributions of about $3.4 billi\ on, largely to our U.S. plans) and to make $400 million of benefit payments to participants in unfunded plans, for \ a total of about $5.4 billion.

The voluntary lump sum payout program we started in 2012 will continue t\ hrough 2013. To date, eligible retirees have accepted lump sum offers that have resulted in about $1.2 billion of our pension obligations\ being settled. Based on current assumptions and regulations, we do not expect to have a\ legal requirement to fund our major U.S. pension plans in 2013.

Liquidity Sufficiency . One of the four key priorities of our One Ford plan is to finance our\ plan and improve our balance sheet, while at the same time having resources available to grow\ our business. The actions described above are consistent with this priority. Based on our planning assumptions, we believe that we have sufficient liquidity and capital resources to continue to invest in new products that customers want and \ value, transform and grow our business, pay our debts and obligations as and when they come due, pay a sustainable divid\ end, and provide protection within an uncertain global economic environment. We will continue to look for opportunities to strengthen our balance shee\ t, primarily by working to ensure our underlying business generates positive Automotive operating-related cash flow, even as we continue to invest in the growth of our business.

Financial Services Sector Ford Credit Funding Strategy. Ford Credit's funding strategy remains focused on diversification and \ it plans to continue accessing a variety of markets, channels, and investors. Ford Credit co\ mpleted its full-year 2012 funding plan, issuing over $23 billion of public term funding. Ford Credit 's public unsecured issuance was over $9 billion, including more than $700 million issued under the Ford Credit U.S. Retail Notes program\ . Ford Credit also issued its first public investment grade unsecured debt transaction since 2005. Additionally, Ford Credit launched an unsecured commercial paper program in the United States, which has grown to about \ $1.7 billion. Ford Credit's liquidity remains strong and it ended the year with $19.7 \ billion of available liquidity and $31.5 billion of committed capacity, compared with about $17 billion and $33 billion at December 31, 2011, respectively.

Ford Credit' s funding plan is subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which are \ beyond its control, including disruption in the capital markets that could impact both unsecured debt \ and asset-backed securities issuance and the effects of regulatory reform efforts on the financial markets. Potential impacts of industry events and regulation on Ford Credit' s ability to access debt and derivatives markets, or renew its committed\ liquidity programs in sufficient amounts and at competitive rates, represents another risk to its funding\ plan. As a result of such events or regulation, Ford Credit may need to reduce new originations of receivables , thereby reducing its ongoing profits and adversely affecting its ability to support the sale of our vehicles . Ford Credit is focused on maintaining liquidity levels that meet its business and funding requirement through economic cycles.

Funding. Ford Credit requires substantial funding in the normal course of busin\ ess. Its funding requirements are driven mainly by the need to: (i) purchase retail installment sale co\ ntracts and retail lease contracts to support the sale of Ford products, which are influenced by Ford-sponsored special-rate fi\ nancing programs that are available exclusively through Ford Credit, (ii) provide wholesale financing and \ capital financing for Ford dealers, and (iii) repay its debt obligations.

Ford Credit's funding sources include primarily securitization transacti\ ons (including other structured financings) and unsecured debt. Ford Credit issues both short- and long-term debt t\ hat is held by both institutional and retail investors, with long-term debt having an original maturity of more than \ 12 months. Ford Credit sponsors a number of securitization programs that can be structured to provide both short- an\ d long-term funding through institutional investors in the United States and international capital markets.

Ford Credit obtains short-term unsecured funding from the sale of floati\ ng rate demand notes under its Ford Interest Advantage program and by issuing unsecured commercial paper in the Unite\ d States, Europe, Mexico, and other international markets. At December 31, 2012, the principal amount outstanding of Ford Interest \ Advantage notes, which may be redeemed at any time at the option of the holders thereof w\ ithout restriction, was $4.9 billion. At December 31, 2012, the principal amount outstanding of Ford Credit's uns\ ecured commercial paper was about $1.7 billion, which primarily represents issuance under its commercial p\ aper program in the United States. Ford Credit does not hold reserves specifically to fund the payment of any of its un\ secured short-term funding obligations. Instead, Ford Credit maintains multiple sources of liquidity, including cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities (excluding marketable securities related to insurance activities), unu\ sed committed liquidity programs, excess securitizable assets, and committed and uncommitted credit facilities, w\ hich should be sufficient to meet Ford Credit's unsecured short-term funding obligations.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 41 Based on present planning assumptions for long-term asset returns, a nor\ malization of discount rates and planned cash contributions, we expect our global funded pension obligations to b\ e fully funded by mid-decade, with variability on a plan-by-plan basis.

Ford Credit does not hold reserves specifically to fund the payment of any of its un\ secured short-term funding obligations. Instead, Ford Credit maintains multiple sources of liquidity, including cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities (excluding marketable securities related to insurance activities), unu\ sed committed liquidity programs, excess securitizable assets, and committed and uncommitted credit facilities, w\ hich should be sufficient to meet Ford Credit's unsecured short-term funding obligations.

The chart below details the trends in the funding of Ford Credit's manag\ ed receivables: __________ (a) The Ford Interest Advantage program consists of Ford Credit's floating rate demand notes.

(b) Obligations issued in securitization transactions that are payable only \ out of collections on the underlying securitized assets and related enhancements.

(c) Excludes marketable securities related to insurance activities. At year-end 2012, managed receivables were $91 billion and Ford Credit e\ nded the year with about $11 billion in cash. Securitized funding was 48% of managed receivables, down from 55%\ at year-end 2011. This reflects a greater mix of unsecured debt given Ford Credit's improved credit spreads and th\ e mandatory exchange of $2.5 billion of asset-backed Ford Upgrade Exchanged Linked ("FUEL") notes for unsecure\ d notes of Ford Credit, which was triggered by the upgrade to investment grade of Ford Credit's long-term,\ unsecured debt by two credit rating agencies during the second quarter of 2012.

Ford Credit is projecting 2013 year-end managed receivables in the range\ of $95 billion to $105 billion and securitized funding is expected to represent about 42% to 47% of total m\ anaged receivables. It is Ford Credit's expectation that the securitized funding as a percent of managed receiva\ bles will decline going forward.

Public Term Funding Plan. The following table illustrates Ford Credit's planned issuances for full\ -year 2013, and its public term funding issuances in 2012, 2011, and 2010 (in billions): Public Term Funding Plan 2013 Forecast 2012 20112010 Unsecured $ 7-10 $9 $8 $ 6 Securitizations (a) 10-14141111 Total $ 17-24 $23 $19 $17 __________(a) Includes Rule 144A offerings. In 2012, Ford Credit completed over $23 billion of public term funding i\ n the United States, Canada, and Europe, including over $9 billion of unsecured debt and $14 billion of securitiz\ ations.

For 2013, Ford Credit projects full-year public term funding in the rang\ e of $17 billion to $24 billion, consisting of $7 billion to $10 billion of unsecured debt and $10 billion to $14 billion of public secur\ itizations. Through February 18, 2013, Ford Credit completed about $4 billion of public term funding tran\ sactions in the United States, Canada, and Europe, including about $2 billion of unsecured debt and $2 billion of securitizations.

The following table illustrates Ford Credit's liquidity programs and uti\ lization (in billions): December 31,2012 December 31, 2011 December 31, 2010 Liquidity Sources (a) Cash (b) $10.9 $ 12.1 $ 14.6 Unsecured credit facilities 0.90.71.1 FCAR bank lines 6.37.99.0 Conduit / Bank Asset-Backed Securitizations ("ABS") 24.3 2424.2 Total liquidity sources $42.4 $ 44.7 $ 48.9 Utilization of Liquidity Securitization cash (c) $(3.0 ) $ (3.7 ) $ (4.2) Unsecured credit facilities (0.1 ) (0.2 ) (0.5) FCAR bank lines (5.8 ) (6.8 ) (6.7) Conduit / Bank ABS (12.3 ) (14.5 ) (8.6) Total utilization of liquidity (21.2 ) (25.2 ) (20.0) Gross liquidity 21.2 19.5 28.9 Capacity in excess of eligible receivables (1.5 ) (2.4 ) (6.3) Liquidity available for use $19.7 $ 17.1 $ 22.6 __________(a) FCAR and conduits subject to availability of sufficient assets and ability to obtain derivatives to manage interest rate\ risk; FCAR commercial paper must be supported by bank lines equal to at least 100% of the prin\ cipal amount; conduits include committed securitization programs. (b) Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities (excludes marketable \ securities related to insurance activities).

(c) Securitization cash is to be used only to support on-balance sheet secur\ itization transactions. At December 31, 2012, Ford Credit had $42.4 billion of committed capacity and cash d\ iversified across a variety of markets and platforms. The utilization of its liquidity totaled $21.2 billion at year-end, comp\ ared with $25.2 billion at year-end 2011. The decrease of $4 billion reflects lower usage of its private conduits,\ FCAR outstanding commercial paper balance, and securitized cash.

Ford Credit ended 2012 with gross liquidity of $21.2 billion. Capacity \ in excess of eligible receivables decreased to $1.5 billion. This provides a funding source for future originations and flexibility t\ o transfer capacity among markets and asset classes where most needed. Total liquidity available for use continues to remain strong at $19.7 billion at year-end 2012, $2.6 billion higher than year-end 2011. Ford Credit is focused on maintaining liquidity levels that meet its business and funding requirements through economic cycles.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities. At December 31, 2012, Ford Credit's cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities (excluding marketable securities related to i\ nsurance activities) totaled $10.9 billion, compared with $12.1 billion at year-end 2011. In the normal course of its funding activities, Ford Credit may generat\ e more proceeds than are required for its immediate funding needs. These excess amounts are maintained primarily as highly liquid investments, which provide liquidity for its short-term fu\ nding needs and give it flexibility in the use of its other funding programs. Ford Credit's cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities are hel\ d primarily in highly liquid investments, which provide for anticipated and unanticipated cash\ needs. Ford Credit's cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities (excluding marketable securities related to i\ nsurance activities) primarily include U.S. Treasury obligations, federal agency securities, bank time deposits with \ investment-grade institutions and non- U.S. central banks, corporate investment-grade securities, A-1/P-1 (or higher) rated commercial paper, debt obligations of a select group of non-U.S. governments, non-U.S. government agencies,\ supranational institutions and money market funds that carry the highest possible ratings. Ford Credit currently does not hold cash, cash equivalents, or marketable securities consisting of investments in government obligation\ s of Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, or Spain, nor did it hold any at December 31, 2012. The average maturity of these investments ranges from 90 days to up to one year, and is adjusted based on market conditions and liquidity needs. Ford Credit monitors its cash levels and average maturity on a daily basis. Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities include amounts to be\ used only to support Ford Credit's securitization transactions of $3.0 billion and\ $3.7 billion at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Ford Credit's substantial liquidity and cash balance have provided the o\ pportunity to selectively call and repurchase its unsecured and asset-backed debt through market transactions. For fu\ ll-year 2012, Ford Credit repurchased and called an aggregate principal amount of $628 million of its unsecured an\ d asset-backed debt.

See Note 17 of the Notes to the Financial Statements for more information regarding credit facilities and committed liquidity programs\ for Ford Credit. While there is a risk of non- renewal of some of Ford Credit 's committed liquidity programs, which could lead to a reduction in the s\ ize of these programs and/or higher costs, Ford Credit 's capacity in excess of eligible receivables would enable it to absorb s\ ome reductions. Ford Credit 's ability to obtain funding under these programs is subject to having a \ sufficient amount of assets eligible for these programs as well as its ability to obtain inte\ rest rate hedging arrangements for certain securitization transactions.

Balance Sheet Liquidity Profile. Ford Credit defines its balance sheet liquidity profile as the cumulat\ ive maturities, including the impact of prepayments, of its finance receivables, investm\ ent in operating leases, and cash, less the cumulative debt maturities over upcoming annual periods. The following chart shows its cumulative maturities for the periods presented at December 31, 2012: __________ (a) Includes finance receivables net of unearned income, investment in opera\ ting leases net of accumulated depreciation, cash and cash equivalents, and marketable securities (excludes marketable securi\ ties related to insurance activities).

(b) Retail and lease ABS are treated as amortizing immediately to match the underlying assets\ .

(c) Includes all of the wholesale ABS term and conduit maturities of $8 billion that otherwise contractual\ ly extend to 2014 and beyond. Ford Credit' s balance sheet is inherently liquid because of the short-term nature of\ its finance receivables, investment in operating leases, and cash. Maturities of investment in o\ perating leases consist primarily of rental payments attributable to depreciation over the remaining life of the lea\ se and the expected residual value at lease termination. Maturities of finance receivables and investment in operat\ ing leases in the chart above include expected prepayments for Ford Credit's retail installment sale contracts and inve\ stment in operating leases. The 2013 finance receivables maturities in the chart above also include all of the wholes\ ale receivables maturities that are otherwise extending beyond 2013. The chart above also reflects the following adjustments to debt maturiti\ es to match all of the asset-backed debt maturities with the underlying asset maturities:

• The 2013 maturities include all of the wholesale securitization transact\ ions , even if the maturities extend beyond 2013; and • Retail securitization transactions under certain committed liquidity pro\ grams are assumed to amortize immediately rather than amortizing after the expiration of the commitmen\ t period.

Leverage. Ford Credit uses leverage, or the debt-to-equity ratio, to make various\ business decisions, including evaluating and establishing pricing for retail, wholesale, and lease fin\ ancing, and assessing its capital structure. Ford Credit refers to its shareholder's interest as equity. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 45 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 45 The following table shows the calculation of Ford Credit's financial sta\ tement leverage (in billions, except for ratios): December 31,2012 December 31, 2011 December 31, 2010 Total debt $89.3 $ 84.7 $ 82.9 Equity 9.78.910.3 Financial statement leverage (to 1) 9.29.58.0 The following table shows the calculation of Ford Credit's managed lever\ age (in billions, except for ratios): December 31, 2012 December 31, 2011 December 31, 2010 Total debt $89.3 $ 84.7 $ 82.9 Adjustments for cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities (a) (10.9 ) (12.1 ) (14.6) Adjustments for derivative accounting (b) (0.8 ) (0.7 ) (0.3) Total adjusted debt $77.6 $ 71.9 $ 68.0 Equity $9.7 $ 8.9 $ 10.3 Adjustments for derivative accounting (b) (0.3 ) (0.2 ) (0.1) Total adjusted equity $9.4 $ 8.7 $ 10.2 Managed leverage (to 1) (c) 8.38.36.7 __________(a) Excludes marketable securities related to insurance activities.

(b) Primarily related to market valuation adjustments to derivatives due to \ movements in interest rates. Adjustments to debt are related to designated fair value hedges and adjustments to equity are related to re\ tained earnings.

(c) Equals total adjusted debt over total adjusted equity. Ford Credit believes that managed leverage is useful to its investors be\ cause it reflects the way Ford Credit manages its business. Ford Credit deducts cash and cash equivalents, an\ d marketable securities (excluding marketable securities related to insurance activities) because they gen\ erally correspond to excess debt beyond the amount required to support its operations and amounts to support on-bala\ nce sheet securitization transactions. Ford Credit makes derivative accounting adjustments to its assets, debt, and \ equity positions to reflect the impact of interest rate instruments Ford Credit uses in connection with its term-debt issua\ nces and securitization transactions. The derivative accounting adjustments related to these instruments vary over\ the term of the underlying debt and securitized funding obligations based on changes in market interest rate\ s. Ford Credit generally repays its debt obligations as they mature. As a result, Ford Credit excludes the impact of these derivative account\ ing adjustments on both the numerator and denominator in order to exclude the interim effects of changes in market interest rates. Ford Credit plans its managed leverage by considering prevailing market \ conditions and the risk characteristics of its business. At December 31, 2012, Ford Credit's managed leverage was 8.3:1, unchanged from December 31, 2011. Ford Credit's guidance for managed leverage in 2013 is to be within the \ range of 8:1 to 9:1. In 2012, Ford Credit paid $600 million in distributions to its parent. Total Company Equity. At December 31, 2012, Total equity attributable to Ford Motor Company was $15.9 billion, an increase of about $900 million compared with December 31, 2011. The increase is more than explained by favorable changes in Retained earnings , related to full-year 2012 net income attributable to Ford Motor Compan\ y of $5.7 billion offset partially by cash dividends declared of $573 million. The favorable changes in Retained earnings are offset partially by unfavorable changes in Accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) of $4.1 billion (more than explained by unfavorable pension and OPEB adjustments) and treasury stock purchases \ of $126 million.

Credit Ratings. Our short-term and long-term debt is rated by four credit rating agencie\ s designated as nationally recognized statistical rating organizations ("NRSROs") by the U.S. Sec\ urities and Exchange Commission:

• DBRS Limited ("DBRS"); • Fitch, Inc. ("Fitch"); • Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's"); and • Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. ("S&P").

For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 46 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 46 In several markets, locally-recognized rating agencies also rate us. A credit rating reflects an assessment by the rating agency of the credit risk associated with a corporate entity or p\ articular securities issued by that entity. Rating agencies' ratings of us are based on information provided by us and othe\ r sources. Credit ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell, or hold securities, and are subject to revision or withdrawal at\ any time by the assigning rating agency. Each rating agency may have different criteria for evaluating company risk and, therefore, ratings shou\ ld be evaluated independently for each rating agency. Lower credit ratings generally result in higher borrowing costs and reduced access to capital markets. There have been no ratings actions taken by these NRSROs since the filin\ g of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

The following chart summarizes certain of the credit ratings and outlook\ presently assigned by these four NRSROs: NRSRO RATINGS FordFord Credit Issuer Default/ Corporate/ Issuer Rating Long-Term Senior Unsecured Outlook / Trend Long-Term Senior Unsecured Short-Term Unsecured Outlook / Trend DBRS BBB (low) BBB (low) Stable BBB (low) R-3 Stable Fitch BBB-BBB-Stable BBB-F3Stable Moody's N/ABaa3Stable Baa3P-3Stable S&P BB+BB+Positive BB+ *NRPositive __________ * S&P assigns FCE a long-term senior unsecured rating of BBB-, maintaining a \ one notch differential versus Ford Credit.

OUTLOOK Our One Ford plan - to aggressively restructure to operate profitably at\ current demand and changing model mix, accelerate development of new products our customers want and value, fin\ ance our plan and improve our balance sheet, and work together effectively as one team leveraging our global assets - continues to be the\ guiding strategy for our business.

Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 47 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 47 Our projected vehicle production is as follows (in thousands): First Quarter 2013 (a) Planned Vehicle Unit Production Over/(Under) First Quarter 2012 Ford North America 77093 Ford South America 11518 Ford Europe 405(13) Ford Asia Pacific Africa 27562 Total 1,565160 __________ (a) Includes production of Ford and JMC brand vehicles to be sold by \ our unconsolidated affiliates. The year-over-year increase in first quarter planned production reflects\ higher volumes in all regions except Europe. Planned production is consistent with our disciplined strategy to match \ production to consumer demand. We expect 2013 global economic growth to be in the range of 2% - 3%, with\ global industry sales in the 80 million - 85 million unit range. We expect U.S. economic growth in the range of 2% - 2.5% for the year, with industry sales supported by replacement demand given the higher-than-normal average age\ of vehicles on the road. In South America, Brazil's easing of fiscal and monetary policies, such as sales tax reduc\ tions and policy interest rate cuts to historic lows, are setting the stage for renewed economic growth. On the other hand, e\ conomic and political uncertainty and risk are increasing in Venezuela. In Europe, we expect weak economic conditions to continue int\ o 2013, especially in countries undergoing fiscal austerity programs. Recent policy moves are positive \ steps, but we do not believe they are enough to resolve the economic crisis and restore business and consumer confidence\ . In Asia Pacific Africa, the latest data suggest economic recovery is underway in China, while the economic slowdown in I\ ndia seems to be bottoming out. Although countries are at different stages of the economic cycle, better growth is expected in 2013 a\ cross the Asia Pacific Africa region. Overall, despite challenges, we expect global economic growth t\ o continue in 2013.

Based on the current economic environment, our planning assumptions and \ key metrics for 2013 include the following: Full-Year 2012 Results 2013 Full-Year Plan Industry Volume (million units) (a) –United States 14.815.0 - 16.0 –Europe (b) 14.013.0 - 14.0 –China 19.019.5 - 21.5 Operational Metrics Compared with prior full year: –U.S. Market Share 15.2%Higher –Europe Market Share (b) 7.9%About Equal –China Market Share (c) 3.2%Higher –Quality MixedImprove Financial Metrics Compared with prior full year: –Total Company Pre-Tax Profit (d) $8 BillionAbout Equal –Automotive Operating Margin (d) 5.3%About Equal / Lower –Automotive Operating-Related Cash Flow $3.4 BillionHigher __________ (a) Includes medium and heavy trucks. (b) For the 19 markets we track.

(c) Includes Ford and JMC brand vehicles sold in China by our unconsolidated\ affiliates.

(d) Excludes special items; Automotive operating margin equal to Automotive pre-tax results excluding Other Automotive divided by Automotive revenue. We project industry volume for the United States and China will increase \ in 2013 compared with 2012, while we expect industry volume for the 19 markets we track in Europe to weaken to the l\ ower end of the range above in 2013 compared with 2012. We expect share for the markets we track in Europe to be about the same i\ n 2013 as in 2012 and we expect our market share in the United States and China to increase, reflecting \ our strong products and brand, as well as an expanded product portfolio (which also now covers more vehicle segments\ in markets such as China). We also expect positive net pricing to continue in 2013, and we expect quality to impro\ ve. For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 48 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 48 We expect total Company pre-tax profit in 2013 to be about equal to stron\ g results in 2012, and Automotive operating margin to be about equal to or lower than 2012. Projected 2013 operatin\ g margin reflects projected revenue increases, partially offset by the impact of structural cost increases to support higher volume\ s, new product launches, and growth plans, as well as more than $1 billion of non-cash structural cost incre\ ases. The non-cash structural cost increases include higher pension expense due to historically low discount rates, c\ essation of favorable amortization associated with previous benefit plan changes, and higher depreciation reflecting accele\ rated depreciation associated with our European restructuring and cessation of low depreciation resulting from prior ass\ et impairments in North America. We expect Automotive operating-related cash flow to be higher in 2013 than 2012, n\ otwithstanding higher planned capital spending of about $7 billion. Turning to the regions, we expect strong Ford North America performance to continue, with higher pre-tax profits than 2012 and operating margin of about 10% for 2013. Our forecast reflects \ growing industry volume, our strong Ford brand, our outstanding product line-up driven by industry-leading refresh rates\ , our continued discipline in matching production with demand, and our lean cost structure. Going forward, we will contin\ ue to work to sustain and grow our strong North American operations. For 2013, we expect Ford South America results to be about breakeven. Although results will benefit from new products recently launched or to be launched during the year, the competitive environment and currency risks across the region, especially in Venezuela, are expected to impact our profits adversely. In addition, government actions to incentivize local production and balance trade are driving trade frictio\ ns between South American countries and also with Mexico, resulting in business environment instability and new trade barr\ iers that negatively impact our results. Going forward, we will continue expanding our product portfolio with global pr\ oducts, and look at all areas of our business to improve operating results. As we have indicated, we view the challenges the automotive industry fac\ es in Europe to be more structural than cyclical in nature; industry sales volume for the 19 markets we track in\ Europe has dropped 20% in the past five years, with only modest industry improvement expected by mid-decade. Against this backdrop, we announced in October 2012 our accelerated transformation plan for Ford Europe, which targets all a\ reas of the business to return to profitability by mid-decade -- including new products and technologies, strengthened bran\ d image, and improved cost efficiencies. Our plan includes an aggressive new product rollout for the region, with\ 15 global vehicles launched within five years, along with a broad array of smart technologies. We are introducing initiatives to continue strengthening the Ford brand i\ n the region, including strategic reduction of dealer inventories that was\ largely completed in 2012. Finally, we plan to close three facilities and relocate production for a more efficient manufacturing footprint. We plan to close our vehicle assembly plant and our tooling and stamping operations in the United Kingdom duri\ ng 2013, and, subject to an information and consultation process with employee representatives, we intend to close o\ ur vehicle assembly plant in Belgium in late 2014. Once completed, our actions would reduce Ford Europe's installed \ assembly capacity (excluding Russia) by 18% or 355,000 units, affect 13% of Ford Europe's workforce, and result in annual gross cost sav\ ings of about $450 million - $500 million. We are on track to deliver our European transformation plan. In 2013, we\ will benefit from the non-repeat of dealer stock reductions to the same degree incurred in 2012. As we previously guided, we will incur higher costs associated with restructuring actions in 2013 compared with 2012, mainly reflecting inve\ stment in new products, accelerated depreciation, and costs to implement our revised manufacturing footprint. As we did with our successful restructuring in North America, we are making these investments now to transform our European business f\ or profitable growth in the future. Since providing guidance in October 2012, our outlook for industry volum\ e in Europe has deteriorated. We now expect industry volume to be in the lower end of the range of 13 million to 14 \ million units; the seasonally-adjusted annual rate of industry sales for the markets we track in Europe for the fourth quarter\ of 2012 was the lowest in nearly 20 years. In addition, we are being adversely impacted by higher pension costs due to\ lower discount rates, and a stronger euro. As a result, we now expect our full-year 2013 pre-tax loss for Ford Europe to\ be about $2 billion, compared with prior guidance of a loss about equal to 2012. The business environment in Europe remains uncertain, and, as is our pra\ ctice, we will continue to monitor the situation and take further action as necessary. We believe that 2013 is likely the trough for European industry sales volume, and we expect industry sales volume and \ our results to begin to improve in 2014. Our plan to return Ford Europe to profitability by mid-decade is driven \ by higher industry volume, higher market share from our product and brand initiatives, growth in emerging markets, rich\ er mix, improved contribution margin, and our more efficient manufacturing footprint. A partial offset will be higher structural costs as we reconfigure and grow our business in Europe. As we proceed with our restructuring, most financial effects will flow through our operating results. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 49 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 49 Employee separation costs, however, will be reflected as a special item. Longer-term, we are targeting Fo\ rd Europe to achieve an operating margin in the range of 6% to 8%.

For Ford Asia Pacific Africa, we expect 2013 results to be about breakeven. We expect our volume and revenue growth in the region to continue to accelerate, supported by the launch \ of all-new Kuga, EcoSport, and refreshed Fiesta across the region, as well as the launch of Mondeo and Explorer in China\ . This will be offset in large part by continued strong investment across the region to support our longer-range growth p\ lans. Looking ahead, we see the results of our One Ford plan taking hold in Asia Pacific Africa, with record volume, revenue, and market share increasing as inve\ stments in new facilities and products gain traction.

We also are continuing the revitalization of our Lincoln brand reflecting\ the brand's distinct product strategy, including its own dedicated design studio, separate creative agency in New York, and financial services team to complement the vehicle acquisition and ownership experience -- and announced that we wi\ ll be bringing the Lincoln brand to the burgeoning Chinese market.

Turning from our Automotive to Financial Services sector, we expect Ford Credit to generate 2013 pre-tax profit about equal to 2012, with managed receivables at year-end 2013 in the range of\ $95 billion to $105 billion, managed leverage continuing in the range of 8:1 to 9:1, and planned distributions of abou\ t $200 million.

Overall, we expect 2013 to be another strong year for Ford Motor Company\ , as we continue to work toward our mid- decade outlook. We have made tremendous progress in recent years by executing the fundame\ ntals of our One Ford plan, and there are significant benefits ahead as we leverage our global\ assets, and also benefit more fully from the investments we are making today for future profitable growth. Our One F\ ord plan will continue to be our guide as we address head-on the diverse challenges and opportunities for our industr\ y and our business worldwide.

Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 51 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 51 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATESWe consider an accounting estimate to be critical if: 1) the accounting\ estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting esti\ mate was made, and 2) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, or use of dif\ ferent estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a material impact on our financial con\ dition or results of operations.

Management has discussed the development and selection of these critical\ accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. In addition, there are other items\ within our financial statements that require estimation, but are not deemed critical as defined above. Changes in es\ timates used in these and other items could have a material impact on our financial statements.

Warranty and Product Recalls Nature of Estimates Required. We accrue the estimated cost of basic warranty coverages for each vehicle\ at the time of sale. We establish estimates using historical information regarding the nature,\ frequency, and average cost of claims for each vehicle line by model year. Where little or no claims experience exists, we rely on historical av\ erages. See Note 31 of the Notes to the Financial Statements for information regardi\ ng costs for warranty actions. Separately, we also accrue at the time of sale for potential product recalls based on histor\ ical experience. Product recalls are distinguishable from warranty coverages in that the actions may extend beyond basic warr\ anty coverage periods.

Assumptions and Approach Used. We reevaluate our estimate of warranty obligations on a regular basis. E\ xperience has shown that initial data for any given model year may be volatile; th\ erefore, our process relies on long-term historical averages until sufficient data are available. As actual experience becomes available, we use the data to modify the historical averages in order to ensure that the estimate is within the r\ ange of likely outcomes. We then compare the resulting accruals with present spending rates to ensure that the balanc\ es are adequate to meet expected future obligations. Based on these data, we revise our estimates as necessary. Due to the uncertainty and potential volatility of these factors, changes in our assumptions could materially affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Pensions Nature of Estimates Required. The estimation of our pension obligations, costs, and liabilities requir\ es that we make use of estimates of the present value of the projected future payments t\ o all participants, taking into consideration the likelihood of potential future events such as demographic experience. These assumptions may have an effect on the amount and timing of future contributions.

Assumptions and Approach Used. The assumptions used in developing the required estimates include the fo\ llowing key factors:

• Discount rates. We base the discount rate assumption primarily on the results of a cash f\ low matching analysis, which matches the future cash outflows for each major plan to a yield cu\ rve comprised of high-quality bonds specific to the country of the plan. Benefit payments are discounted at\ the rates on the curve and a single discount rate specific to the plan is determined.

• Expected long-term rate of return on assets. The expected long-term rate of return on assets assumption reflects historical returns and long-run inputs from a range of advisors for capi\ tal market returns, inflation, bond yields, and other variables, adjusted for specific aspects of our investment str\ ategy. The assumption is based on consideration of all inputs, with a focus on long-term trends to avoid s\ hort-term market influences. Assumptions are not changed unless structural trends in the underlying economy are i\ dentified, our asset strategy changes, or there are significant changes in other inputs.

• Salary growth. The salary growth assumption reflects our long-term actual experience, o\ utlook, and assumed inflation.

• Inflation. Our inflation assumption is based on an evaluation of external market \ indicators, including real gross domestic product growth and central bank inflation targets.

• Expected contributions. The expected amount and timing of contributions is based on an assessmen\ t of minimum requirements, and additional amounts based on cash availability \ and other considerations (e.g., funded status, avoidance of regulatory premiums and levies, and tax efficiency).

• Retirement rates. Retirement rates are developed to reflect actual and projected plan expe\ rience.

• Mortality rates. Mortality rates are developed to reflect actual and projected plan exper\ ience.

No assumption is made regarding any potential future changes to benefit provisions beyond those to which we \ are presently committed (e.g., in existing labor contracts).

The effects of actual results differing from our assumptions and the effects of changing assumptions are included in unamortized net gains and losses. Unamortized gains and losses are amor\ tized over future periods and, therefore, generally affect our recognized expense in future periods. Amounts are recognized as a component of net expense over the expected future years of service (approximately 11 years for the major U.S. plans). In 2012, the U.S. actual return on \ assets was 14.2%, which was higher than the expected long-term rate of r\ eturn of 7.5%. The year-end 2012 weighted average discount rates for the U.S. and non-U.S. plans decreased by 80 b\ asis points and 92 basis points, respectively. These differences resulted in unamortized losses of about $6 billion. Unamortized gains and losses are amortized only to the extent they exceed 10% of the higher of the market-related value of \ assets or the projected benefit obligation of the respective plan. For the major U.S. plans, unamortized losses exceed th\ is threshold and recognition is continuing in 2013.

Income Taxes Nature of Estimates Required. We must make estimates and apply judgment in determining the provision fo\ r income taxes for financial reporting purposes. We make these estimates and judgments primarily in the following areas: \ (i) the calculation of tax credits, (ii) the calculation of differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax and\ financial statement purposes that will ultimately be reported in tax ret\ urns, as well as (iii) the calculation of interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. Changes in these estimate\ s and judgments may result in a material increase or decrease to our tax provision, which would be recorded in the period \ in which the change occurs.

Assumptions and Approach Used. We are subject to the income tax laws and regulations of the many jurisdi\ ctions in which we operate. These tax laws and regulations are complex and involve uncertainties in \ the application to our facts and circumstances that may be open to interpretation. We recognize benefits for these uncertain tax positions based upon a process that requires judgment regarding the technical applicati\ on of the law, regulations and various related judicial opinions. If, in our judgment, it is more likely than not that\ the uncertain tax position will be settled favorably to us, we estimate an amount that ultimately will be realized. This process is inherently subjective, since it requires our assessment of the probability of future outcomes. We evaluate these uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis, including consideration of changes in facts and circumstances, such as n\ ew regulations or recent judicial opinions, as well as the status of audit activities by taxing authorities. Changes to our\ estimate of the amount to be realized are recorded in our provision for income taxes during the period in which the change occ\ urred.

We must also assess the likelihood that we will be able to recover our de\ ferred tax assets against future sources of taxable income. GAAP requires a reduction of the carrying amount of deferred tax assets by r\ ecording a valuation allowance if, based on all available evidence, it is more likely than no\ t (defined as a likelihood of more than 50%) that all or a portion of such assets will not be realized. We presently believe that a valuation allowance of $1.9 billion is requir\ ed, primarily for deferred tax assets related to our Ford South America operations, as well as various U.S. state and local net operating losses. We believe that we ultimately will recover the remaining $20.8 billion of\ deferred tax assets. Within this amount is $1.4 billion of net deferred tax assets related to our Europea\ n operations. We have assessed recoverability of these assets, and concluded that no valuation allowance is required. We will continue to monitor recoverability as we progress our European transformation plan.

Changes in our judgment regarding our ability to recover our deferred ta\ x assets would be reflected in our tax provision in the period in which the change occurred. We expect that continued delivery of our One Ford plan could lead to the reduction in the overall level of valuation allowance related to \ U.S state and local net operating losses in the foreseeable future. For additional information regarding income taxes, see Note 24 of the No\ tes to the Financial Statements.

Allowance for Credit Losses The allowance for credit losses is Ford Credit's estimate of the probabl\ e credit losses inherent in finance receivables and operating leases at the date of the balance sheet. Consistent with \ its normal practices and policies, Ford Credit assesses the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses quarterly and r\ egularly evaluates the assumptions and models used in establishing the allowance. Because credit losses can vary subs\ tantially over time, estimating credit losses requires a number of assumptions about matters that are uncertain. Nature of Estimates Required. Ford Credit estimates the probable credit losses inherent in finance rec\ eivables and operating leases based on several factors.

Consumer Segment. The retail installment and lease portfolio is evaluated using a combinat\ ion of models and management judgment, and is based on factors such as historical trends i\ n credit losses and recoveries (including key metrics such as delinquencies, repossessions, and bankruptcies), the co\ mposition of Ford Credit's present portfolio (including vehicle brand, term, risk evaluation, and new/used vehicles)\ , trends in historical and projected used vehicle values, and economic conditions. Estimates from models may not fully re\ flect losses inherent in the present portfolio, and an element of the allowance for credit losses is established for the imp\ recision inherent in loan loss models. Reasons for imprecision include changes in economic trends and conditions, portfolio\ composition, and other relevant factors.

For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 54 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 54 Assumptions Used. Ford Credit makes projections of two key assumptions:

• Frequency. The number of finance receivables and operating lease contracts that For\ d Credit expects will default over a period of time, measured as repossessions; and • Loss severity. The expected difference between the amount of money a customer owes Ford Credit when For\ d Credit charges off the finance contract and the amount Ford Credit receives, net of expen\ ses, from selling the repossessed vehicle, including any recoveries from the customer.

Ford Credit uses these assumptions to assist it in estimating its allowa\ nce for credit losses. See Note 9 of the Notes to the Financial Statements for more information regarding allowance for\ credit losses.

Sensitivity Analysis. Changes in the assumptions used to derive frequency and severity would a\ ffect the allowance for credit losses. The effect of the indicated increase/decrease in the assumptions is shown belo\ w for Ford Credit's U.S. Ford and Lincoln retail and lease portfolio (in millions): Increase/(Decrease) Assumption Percentage Point Change December 31, 2012 Allowance for Credit Losses 2012 Expense Repossession ratios (a) +/- 0.1 pt.$20/$(20)$20/$(20) Loss severity +/- 1.05/(5)5/(5) __________ (a) Reflects the number of finance receivables and operating lease contracts\ that Ford Credit expects will default over a period of time relative to the average number of contracts outstanding. Non-Consumer Segment. We estimate an allowance using an LTR model for non-consumer receivables that are not specifically identified as impaired. All accounts that are specifically identified as impaired are excluded f\ rom the calculation of the non-specific or collective allowance. The non-consumer portfolio is evaluated by segmenting individual loans by the risk characteristics of the loan (such as the amount of th\ e loan, the nature of collateral, and the financial status of the dealer). The loans are analyzed to determine if individual loans are impaired, an\ d an allowance is estimated for the expected loss of these loans.

Changes in Ford Credit's assumptions affect the Provision for credit and insurance losses on our income statement and the allowance for credit losses contained within Finance receivables, net and Net investment in operating leases on our balance sheet, in each case under the Financial Services sector.

Accumulated Depreciation on Vehicles Subject to Operating Leases Accumulated depreciation on vehicles subject to operating leases reduces\ the value of the leased vehicles in our operating lease portfolio from their original acquisition value to their\ expected residual value at the end of the lease term. These vehicles primarily consist of retail lease contracts for Ford Cred\ it and vehicles sold to daily rental car companies subject to a guaranteed repurchase option ("rental repurchase vehicles"\ ) for the Automotive sector.

We monitor residual values each month, and we review the adequacy of our \ accumulated depreciation on a quarterly basis. If we believe that the expected residual values for our vehicles\ have changed, we revise depreciation to ensure that our net investment in operating leases (equal to our acquisition v\ alue of the vehicles less accumulated depreciation) will be adjusted to reflect our revised estimate of the expected residua\ l value at the end of the lease term. Such adjustments to depreciation expense would result in a change in the depr\ eciation rates of the vehicles subject to operating leases, and are recorded prospectively on a straight-line basis.

For retail leases, each lease customer has the option to buy the leased \ vehicle at the end of the lease or to return the vehicle to the dealer. Ford Credit's North America operating lease activity was as follows for each of the last thr\ ee years (in thousands, except percentages): 2012 20112010 Vehicle return volume 76144 281 Return rate 60%59%69% For rental repurchase vehicles, practically all vehicles have been retur\ ned to us.

Nature of Estimates Required. Each operating lease in our portfolio represents a vehicle we own that \ has been leased to a customer. At the time we purchase a lease, we establish an expected residual value\ for the vehicle. We Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 55 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 55 estimate the expected residual value by evaluating recent auction values\ , historical return volumes for our leased vehicles, industry-wide used vehicle prices, our marketing incentive pla\ ns, and vehicle quality data. Assumptions Used. For retail leases, our accumulated depreciation on vehicles subject to o\ perating leases is based on our assumptions regarding:

• Auction value. Ford Credit's projection of the market value of the vehicles when we s\ ell them at the end of the lease; and • Return volume. Ford Credit's projection of the number of vehicles that will be return\ ed at lease-end. See Note 8 of the Notes to the Financial Statements for more information\ regarding accumulated depreciation on vehicles subject to operating leases.

Sensitivity Analysis. For returned vehicles, we face a risk that the amount we obtain from the\ vehicle sold at auction will be less than our estimate of the expected residual value for the ve\ hicle. The effect of the indicated increase/decrease in the assumptions for our U.S. Ford and Lincoln retail and lease portfo\ lio is as follows: Increase/(Decrease) Assumption Percentage Change December 31, 2012 Accumulated Depreciation on Vehicles Subject to Operating Leases 2013 Expense Future auction values +/- 1.0 $47/$(47)$12/$(12) Return volumes +/- 1.03/(3)1/(1) The impact of the increased accumulated supplemental depreciation in 201\ 2 would be charged to expense in the 2013 - 2016 periods. Adjustments to the amount of accumulated depreciation on operating lease\ s are reflected on our balance sheet as Net investment in operating leases and on the income statement in Depreciation, in each case under the Financial Services sector.

Automotive Sector Long-Lived Asset Impairment Testing Nature of Estimates Required - Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived asset groups are tested for recoverability when changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recovera\ ble. Events that trigger a test for recoverability include material adverse changes in projected revenues and expenses, sig\ nificant underperformance relative to historical and projected future operating results, and significant negative industr\ y or economic trends. When a triggering event occurs, a test for recoverability is performed, comparing projected undi\ scounted future cash flows to the carrying value of the asset group. If the test for recoverability identifies a possible i\ mpairment, the asset group's fair value is measured relying primarily on a discounted cash flow methodology. An impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of the asset group exceeds its estimated fair value. \ A test for recoverability also is performed when management has committed to a plan to sell or otherwise dispose of an as\ set group and the plan is expected to be completed within a year. When an impairment loss is recognized for assets to be held and used,\ the adjusted carrying amount of those assets is depreciated over its remaining useful life. R\ estoration of a previously recognized long-lived asset impairment loss is not allowed.

Assumptions and Approach Used. We measure the fair value of a reporting unit or asset group based on mar\ ket prices (i.e., the amount for which the asset could be sold to a third p\ arty), when available. When market prices are not available, we estimate the fair value of the reporting unit or asset gro\ up using the income approach and/or the market approach. The income approach uses cash flow projections. Inherent in our develop\ ment of cash flow projections are assumptions and estimates derived from a review of our operating results\ , business plan forecasts, expected growth rates, and cost of capital, similar to those a market participant would \ use to assess fair value. We also make certain assumptions about future economic conditions and other data. Many of th\ e factors used in assessing fair value are outside the control of management, and these assumptions and estimates m\ ay change in future periods.

Changes in assumptions or estimates can materially affect the fair value measurement of a reporting unit or asset group, and therefore can affect the test results. The following are key assumptions we use in making cash flow projections: • Business projections . We make assumptions about the demand for our products in the marketplace.\ These assumptions drive our planning assumptions for volume, mix, and pricing.\ We also make assumptions about our For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 56 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 56 cost levels (e.g., capacity utilization, cost performance, etc.). These projections are derived using our internal business plan forecasts that are updated at least annually and reviewed \ by our Board of Directors.

• Long-term growth rate . A growth rate is used to calculate the terminal value of the business, an\ d is added to the present value of the debt-free interim cash flows. The growth rate is the expected rate at which a business unit's earnings stream is projected to grow beyond the planning period.

• Discount rate. When measuring possible impairment, future cash flows are discounted at \ a rate that is consistent with a weighted-average cost of capital that we anticipate a potential m\ arket participant would use. Weighted- average cost of capital is an estimate of the overall risk-adjusted afte\ r-tax rate of return required by equity and debt holders of a business enterprise.

• Economic projections. Assumptions regarding general economic conditions are included in and af\ fect our assumptions regarding industry sales and pricing estimates for our vehic\ les. These macro-economic assumptions include, but are not limited to, industry sales volumes, inf\ lation, interest rates, prices of raw materials (i.e., commodities), and foreign currency exchange rates.

The market approach is another method for measuring the fair value of a \ reporting unit or asset group. This approach relies on the market value (i.e., market capitalization) of companies \ that are engaged in the same or similar line of business.

During the third quarter of 2012, operating profits and cash flow from o\ perations outside of North America remained under pressure. In particular, industry sales volume for the markets we track in Europe declined sign\ ificantly in recent years with only modest improvement expected by mid-decade, suggesting th\ at current changes in the European business environment are more structural than cyclical in nature. Against this backdrop, we determined that it was appropriate to test for impairment the long-lived assets of our Ford Europe segment. U\ sing our economic and business projections, including an assumption of an 8% operating margin for Ford Europe over t\ he longer term, we determined that the carrying value of our Ford Europe long-lived asset group at September 30, 2012 di\ d not exceed fair value. Our long-term economic and business projections did not change during the fourth quart\ er of 2012. If in future quarters our economic or business projections were to change as a result of our plans or changes \ in the business environment, we would undertake additional testing as appropriate which could result in an impairment of\ long-lived assets.

ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED For information on accounting standards issued but not yet adopted, see \ Note 3 of the Notes to the Financial Statements. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 57 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 57 AGGREGATE CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONSWe are party to many contractual obligations involving commitments to mak\ e payments to third parties. Most of these are debt obligations incurred by our Financial Services sector. Long-term debt may have fixed or variable interest rates. For long-term debt with variable-rate interest, we estimate the future i\ nterest payments based on projected market interest rates for various floating-rate benchmarks received from third parties. \ In addition, as part of our normal business practices, we enter into contracts with suppliers for purchases of certa\ in raw materials, components, and services to facilitate adequate supply of these materials and services. These arrangements may contain fixed or minimum quantity purchase requirements. "Purchase obligations" are defined as off-balance sheet agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on the Company and tha\ t specify all significant terms.

For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 58 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 58 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk OVERVIEWWe are exposed to a variety of market and other risks, including the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, interest rates, as well as risks to availabilit\ y of funding sources, hazard events, and specific asset risks.

These risks affect our Automotive and Financial Services sectors differently. We monitor and manage these exposures as an integral part of our overall risk management program, wh\ ich includes regular reports to a central management committee, the Global Risk Management Committee ("GRMC"). \ The GRMC is chaired by our Chief Financial Officer, and its members include our Treasurer, our Corporate Controller, and other members of senior management.

Our Automotive and Financial Services sectors are exposed to liquidity risk,\ or the possibility of having to curtail their businesses or being unable to meet present and future financial obligati\ ons as they come due because funding sources may be reduced or become unavailable. We maintain plans for sources of funding to ensure liquidity through a va\ riety of economic or business cycles. As discussed in greater detail in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" our funding sources include sales o\ f receivables in securitizations and other structured financings, unsecured debt issuances, equity and equity-linke\ d issuances, and bank borrowings.

We are exposed to a variety of insurable risks, such as loss or damage to\ property, liability claims, and employee injury. We protect against these risks through a combination of self-insurance an\ d the purchase of commercial insurance designed to protect against events that could generate significant losse\ s.

Direct responsibility for the execution of our market risk management st\ rategies resides with our Treasurer's Office and is governed by written policies and procedures. Separation of dutie\ s is maintained between the development and authorization of derivative trades, the transaction of derivatives, and \ the settlement of cash flows. Regular audits are conducted to ensure that appropriate controls are in place and that they\ remain effective. In addition, our market risk exposures and our use of derivatives to manage these exposures are appro\ ved by the GRMC, and reviewed by the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

In accordance with corporate risk management policies, we use derivative\ instruments, when available, such as forward contracts, swaps and options that economically hedge certain exp\ osures (foreign currency, commodity, and interest rates). Derivative positions, when available, are used to hed\ ge underlying exposures; we do not use derivative contracts for trading, market-making or speculative purposes. In certai\ n instances, we forgo hedge accounting, and, in certain other instances, our derivatives do not qualify for hedge accoun\ ting. Either situation results in unrealized gains and losses that are recognized currently in net income. For additional \ information on our derivatives, see Note 18 of the Notes to the Financial Statements.

The market and counterparty risks of our Automotive sector and Ford Credit are discussed and quantified below.

AUTOMOTIVE MARKET AND COUNTERPARTY RISK Our Automotive sector frequently has expenditures and receipts denominated i\ n foreign currencies, including the following: purchases and sales of finished vehicles and production part\ s, debt and other payables, subsidiary dividends, and investments in foreign operations. These expenditures and receipts create exposures to changes in exchange \ rates. We also are exposed to changes in prices of commodities used in our Automotive sector and changes in interest rates.

Foreign currency risk and commodity risk are measured and quantified usi\ ng a model to evaluate the sensitivity of the fair value of currency and commodity derivative instruments with exposur\ e to market risk that assumes instantaneous, parallel shifts in rates and/or prices. For options and instruments wit\ h non-linear returns, appropriate models are utilized to determine the impact of shifts in rates and prices.

Foreign Currency Risk. Foreign currency risk is the possibility that our financial results co\ uld be better or worse than planned because of changes in currency exchange rates. Accordingly, our normal practice is to use derivative instruments, when available, to hedge our economic exposure with respect\ to forecasted revenues and costs, assets, liabilities, investments in foreign operations, and firm commitments den\ ominated in foreign currencies. In our hedging actions, we use primarily instruments commonly used by corporations to r\ educe foreign exchange risk (e.g., forward contracts). Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 59 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk 59 The net fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts (including adj\ ustments for credit risk) as of December 31, 2012 was a liability of $268 million compared to a liability of $236 million\ as of December 31, 2011. The potential decrease in fair value from a 10% adverse change in the underl\ ying exchange rates, in U.S. dollar terms, would be about $2 billion at December 31, 2012 compared with a decrease of about $1.7 billion as of December 31, 2011. The increase in potential market risk from the end of last year primarily re\ sults from an increase in the amount of foreign currencies hedged during 2012. Commodity Price Risk. Commodity price risk is the possibility that our financial results could\ be better or worse than planned because of changes in the prices of commodities used in the prod\ uction of motor vehicles, such as ferrous metals (e.g., steel and iron castings), non-ferrous metals (e.g., alu\ minum), precious metals (e.g., palladium), energy (e.g., natural gas and electricity), and plastics/resins (e.g., polyp\ ropylene). Steel and resins are two of our largest commodity exposures and are among the most difficult to hedge.

Our normal practice is to use derivative instruments, when available, to\ hedge the price risk associated with the purchase of those commodities that we can economically hedge (primarily\ non-ferrous metals and precious metals). In our hedging actions, we use derivative instruments commonly used by corp\ orations to reduce commodity price risk (e.g., financially settled forward contracts, swaps, and options). The net fair value of commodity forward and option contracts (including\ adjustments for credit risk) as of December 31, 2012 was a liability of $101 million (which reflects the cumulative mark to\ market net loss on our hedging contracts for full year 2012), compared to a liability of $370 million \ as of December 31, 2011. The potential decrease in fair value from a 10% adverse change in the underlying commodity prices,\ in U.S. dollar terms, would be about $103 million at December 31, 2012, compared with a decrease of about $203 million at December 31, 2011. The decrease in potential market risk from the end of last year primarily re\ sults from a decrease in the amount of commodities hedged during 2012 with forward contracts (partially offset by an increase in the amount of commodities hedged with option contracts). In addition, our purchasing organization (with guidance from the GRMC a\ s appropriate) negotiates contracts to ensure continuous supply of raw materials. In some cases, these contracts stip\ ulate minimum purchase amounts and specific prices, and as such, play a role in managing price risk. Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk relates to the gain or loss we could incur in our Automotive investment portfolios due to a change in interest rates. Our interest rate sensitivity analys\ is on the investment portfolios includes cash and cash equivalents and net marketable securities. At December 31, 2012, we had $24.3 billion in our Automotive investment portfolios, compared to $22.9 billion at December 31, 2011. We invest the portfolios in securities of various types and maturities, the value of which are subject to fluctuations in \ interest rates. The portfolios are classified as trading portfolios and gains and losses (unrealized and realized) are reported\ in the income statement. The investment strategy is based on clearly defined risk and liquidity guidelines to maintain li\ quidity, minimize risk, and earn a reasonable return on the short-term investments. In investing our Automotive cash, safety of principal is the primary objective and risk-a\ djusted return is the secondary objective.

At any time, a rise in interest rates could have a material adverse impa\ ct on the fair value of our portfolios. Assuming a hypothetical increase in interest rates of one percentage point, the v\ alue of our portfolios would be reduced by about $185 million. This compares to $95 million, as calculated as of December 31, 2011. While these are our best estimates of the impact of the specified interest rate scenario, actual results co\ uld differ from those projected. The sensitivity analysis presented assumes interest rate changes are instantaneous, para\ llel shifts in the yield curve. In reality, interest rate changes of this magnitude are rarely instantaneous or parallel. Counterparty Risk. Counterparty risk relates to the loss we could incur if an obligor or co\ unterparty defaulted on an investment or a derivative contract. We enter into master agreements with counterparties that allow netting of\ certain exposures in order to manage this risk. Exposures primarily relate to i\ nvestments in fixed income instruments and derivative contracts used for managing interest rate, foreign currency e\ xchange rate and commodity price risk. We, together with Ford Credit, establish exposure limits for each counterpar\ ty to minimize risk and provide counterparty diversification. Our approach to managing counterparty risk is forward-looking and proact\ ive, allowing us to take risk mitigation actions before risks become losses. Exposure limits are established bas\ ed on our overall risk tolerance and estimated loss projections which are calculated from ratings-based historical defa\ ult probabilities. The exposure limits are lower for lower-rated counterparties and for longer-dated exposures. Our exposure\ s are monitored on a regular basis and included in periodic reports to our Treasurer. 60 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk 60 Substantially all of our counterparty exposures are with counterparties \ that have an investment grade rating. Investment grade is our guideline for counterparty minimum long-term rat\ ings. For additional information about derivative notional amount and fair val\ ue of derivatives, please refer to Note 18 of the Notes to the Financial Statements.

FORD CREDIT MARKET RISK Overview. Ford Credit is exposed to a variety of risks in the normal course of its\ business activities. In addition to counterparty risk discussed above, Ford Credit is subject to the followi\ ng additional types of risks that it seeks to identify, assess, monitor, and manage, in accordance with defined policies and procedures: • Market risk - the possibility that changes in interest and currency exchange rates \ will adversely affect cash flow and economic value; • Credit risk - the possibility of loss from a customer's failure to make payments ac\ cording to contract terms; • Residual risk - the possibility that the actual proceeds received at lease terminatio\ n will be lower than projections or return volumes will be higher than projections; and • Liquidity risk - the possibility that Ford Credit may be unable to meet all of its cur\ rent and future obligations in a timely manner.

Each form of risk is uniquely managed in the context of its contribution\ to Ford Credit's overall global risk. Business decisions are evaluated on a risk-adjusted basis and services are priced\ consistent with these risks. Credit and residual risks, as well as liquidity risk, are discussed above in "Management's D\ iscussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." A discussion of Ford Credit's market risks (interest rate risk and forei\ gn currency risk) is included below. Interest Rate Risk. Ford Credit is exposed to interest rate risk to the extent that its a\ ssets and the related debt have different re-pricing periods, and consequently, respond differently to changes in interest rates. Ford Credit's assets consist primarily of fixed-rate retail installment \ sale and lease contracts and floating-rate wholesale receivables. Fixed-rate retail installment sale and lease con\ tracts are originated principally with maturities ranging between two and six years and generally require customers to mak\ e equal monthly payments over the life of the contract. Wholesale receivables are originated to finance new and used \ vehicles held in dealers' inventory and generally require dealers to pay a floating rate. Debt consists primarily of securitizations and short- and long-term unse\ cured debt. In the case of unsecured term debt, and in an effort to have funds available throughout business cycles, Ford Credit may\ borrow at terms longer than the terms of their assets, in most instances with maturities up to ten years\ . These debt instruments are principally fixed-rate and require fixed and equal interest payments over the life of the instr\ ument and a single principal payment at maturity. Ford Credit's interest rate risk management objective is to reduce volat\ ility in its cash flows and volatility in its economic value from changes in interest rates based on an established ri\ sk tolerance. Ford Credit uses re-pricing gap analysis and economic value sensitivity \ analysis to evaluate potential long term effects of changes in interest rates. It then enters into interest rate sw\ aps to convert portions of its floating-rate debt to fixed or its fixed-rate debt to floating to ensure that Ford Credit's ex\ posure falls within the established tolerances. Ford Credit also uses pre-tax cash flow sensitivity analysis to monitor the l\ evel of near-term cash flow exposure. The pre-tax cash flow sensitivity analysis measures the changes in expected cash flo\ ws associated with Ford Credit's interest-rate- sensitive assets, liabilities, and derivative financial instruments from\ hypothetical changes in interest rates over a twelve- month horizon. Ford Credit's Asset-Liability Committee reviews the re-pricing mismatch and exposure e\ very month and approves interest rate swaps required to maintain exposure within approv\ ed thresholds prior to execution. To provide a quantitative measure of the sensitivity of its pre-tax cash \ flow to changes in interest rates, Ford Credit uses interest rate scenarios that assume a hypothetical, instantaneous i\ ncrease or decrease of one percentage point in all interest rates, across all maturities (a "parallel shift"), as well as\ a base case that assumes that all interest rates remain constant at existing levels. In reality, interest rate changes are rarely instantaneous or parallel and rates c\ ould move more or less than the one percentage point assumed in Ford Credit's analysis.\ As a result, the actual impact to pre-tax cash flow could be higher or lower than the results detailed in the table bel\ ow. These interest rate scenarios are purely hypothetical and do not represent Ford Credit's view of future interest \ rate movements.

Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 61 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk 61 Pre-tax cash flow sensitivity as of year-end 2012 and 2011 was as follows (in millions): Pre-Tax Cash Flow Sensitivity (given a one percentage point instantaneous increase in interest rates) Pre-Tax Cash Flow Sensitivity (given a one percentage point instantaneous decrease in interest rates) (a) December 31, 2012 $77 $ (77 ) December 31, 2011 $60 $ (60 ) _____ (a) Pre-tax cash flow sensitivity given a one percentage point decrease in i\ nterest rates requires an assumption of negative interest rates in markets where existing interest rates are below one percent. Ford Credit expects more assets than debt and liabilities to re-price in\ the next twelve months. Other things being equal, this means that during a period of rising interest rates, the int\ erest earned on Ford Credit's assets will increase more than the interest paid on Ford Credit's debt, thereby initially inc\ reasing Ford Credit's pre-tax cash flow. During a period of falling interest rates, Ford Credit would expect its pre-tax c\ ash flow to initially decrease. Ford Credit's pre-tax cash flow sensitivity to interest rate movement is highlighted in the ta\ ble above.

While the sensitivity analysis presented is Ford Credit's best estimate \ of the impacts of the specified assumed interest rate scenarios, its actual results could differ from those projected. The model Ford Credit uses to conduct this analysis is heavily dependent on assumptions. Embedded in the model are assumptions\ regarding the reinvestment of maturing asset principal, refinancing of maturing debt, replacement of maturing d\ erivatives, exercise of options embedded in debt and derivatives, and predicted repayment of retail installment sale and \ lease contracts ahead of contractual maturity. Ford Credit's repayment projections ahead of contractual maturity are ba\ sed on historical experience. If interest rates or other factors change, Ford Credit's actual prepayment experience could b\ e different than projected. Foreign Currency Risk. Ford Credit's policy is to minimize exposure to changes in currency exch\ ange rates. To meet funding objectives, Ford Credit borrows in a variety of currencies, prin\ cipally U.S. dollars, Canadian dollars, Euros and Pound Sterling. Ford Credit faces exposure to currency exchange rates i\ f a mismatch exists between the currency of receivables and the currency of the debt funding those receivables. Whe\ n possible, receivables are funded with debt in the same currency, minimizing exposure to exchange rate movements. When a different currency is used, Ford Credit may use foreign currency swaps and foreign currency forwards to convert \ substantially all of its foreign currency debt obligations to the local country currency of the receivables: As a result of this policy, Ford Credit believes its market risk exposure relating to changes in c\ urrency exchange rates is insignificant. Derivative Fair Values. The net fair value of Ford Credit's derivative financial instruments as \ of December 31, 2012 was an asset of $856 million, compared to an asset of $1.1 billion as of\ December 31, 2011.

Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 63 63 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Ford Motor Company In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the rel\ ated consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, equity and cash flows, including pages 64 through \ 155, present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Ford Motor Company and its subsidiaries at Decembe\ r 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three y\ ears in the period ended December 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United S\ tates of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 201\ 2, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment\ of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management's Repo\ rt on Internal Control over Financial Reporting in this Annual Report. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these finan\ cial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial st\ atements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all \ material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence suppo\ rting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant est\ imates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control\ over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing th\ e risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits \ also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in \ the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the b\ asic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying sector balance sheets and the related sector statements of \ income and of cash flows are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic\ financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic f\ inancial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial state\ ments taken as a whole.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process design\ ed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial stat\ ements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those poli\ cies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in rea\ sonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provi\ de reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in a\ ccordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being \ made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable \ assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the compan\ y's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial rep\ orting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may \ become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compl\ iance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

PRESENTATIONFor purposes of this report, "Ford," the "Company," "we," "our," "us" or similar references mean Ford Motor Company and our consolidated subsidiaries and our consolidated VIEs of which we \ are the primary beneficiary, unless the context requires otherwise.

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted\ accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). We present the financial statements on a consolidated basis and on a sect\ or basis for our Automotive and Financial Services sectors. The additional information provided in the sector statements enables the\ reader to better understand the operating performance, financial position, cash flows, an\ d liquidity of our two very different businesses. We eliminate all intercompany items and transactions in the consolidated \ and sector balance sheets. In certain circumstances, presentation of these intercompany eliminations or consol\ idated adjustments differ between the consolidated and sector financial statements. These line items are reconciled below under "Reconciliations between Consolidated and Sector Financial Statements" or in related footnotes.

We reclassified certain prior year amounts in our consolidated financial \ statements to conform to current year presentation.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards Fair Value Measurement. On January 1, 2012, we adopted the new accounting standard that requires\ us to report the level in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities not measured\ at fair value in the balance sheet but for which the fair value is disclosed, and to expand existing disclosures. See Note 4\ for further disclosure regarding our fair value measurements.

Comprehensive Income - Presentation. On January 1, 2012, we adopted the new accounting standard that modifi\ es the options for presentation of other comprehensive income. The new accounting standard requires us to present comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement or two sepa\ rate but consecutive statements. We have elected to present comprehensive income in two separate but consecutive \ statements.

On January 1, 2012, we also adopted the new accounting standards Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, Transfers and Servicing - Repurchase Agreements, and Financial Services - Insurance. The adoption of these new accounting standards did not impact our financial condition or results of operation\ s.

These receivables are classified as Other receivables, net on our consolidated balance sheet and Finance receivables, net on our sector balance sheet.

(b) We pay amounts to Ford Credit at the point of retail financing or lease o\ rigination that represent interest supplements and residual value support.

(c) Primarily wholesale receivables with entities that are consolidated subs\ idiaries of Ford. (d) Sale-leaseback agreement between Automotive and Financial Services sectors relating to vehicles that we l\ ease to our employees.

(e) Amounts owed to the Financial Services sector by Automotive sector, or vice versa.

Venezuelan Operations At December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had $620 million and $301 million, respectively, in net monetary assets (primarily cash and receivables partially offset by payables and accrued liabilities) denominated in Venezuelan bolivars. These net monetary assets included $721 million and $331 million in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We used the official exchange rate at December 31, 2012 of 4.3 bolivars to the U.S. dollar to re-measure the assets and liabilities of our Venezuelan operations for GAAP financial statement presentation. On February 8, 2013, the Venezuelan government announced a devaluation of the bolivar to an exchan\ ge rate of 6.3 bolivars to the U.S. dollar. Had the devaluation occurred on December 31, 2012, we would have recorde\ d a translation loss of approximately $200 million in our year-end financial statements. Our ability to obtain funds at t\ he official exchange rate has been limited. Continuing restrictions on the foreign currency exchange market could af\ fect our Venezuelan operations' ability to pay obligations denominated in U.S. dollars as well as our ability to benefi\ t from those operations.

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIESFor each accounting topic that is addressed in its own footnote, the des\ cription of the accounting policy may be found in the related footnote. The remaining accounting policies are described below.

Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements requires us to make estimates an\ d assumptions that affect our results during the periods reported. Estimates are used to account for certain items s\ uch as marketing accruals, warranty costs, employee benefit programs, etc. Estimates are based on assumptions that\ we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved with estimates,\ actual results may differ.

Foreign Currency Translation The assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries using the local curre\ ncy as their functional currency are translated to U.S. dollars using end-of-period exchange rates and any resulting transl\ ation adjustments are reported in Other comprehensive income/(loss). Upon sale or upon complete or substantially complete liquidation of an\ investment in a foreign subsidiary, the accumulated amount of translation adjustments related to that enti\ ty is reclassified to net income as part of the recognized gain or loss on the investment.

Gains or losses arising from transactions denominated in currencies othe\ r than the affiliate's functional currency, the effect of remeasuring assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries using\ U.S. dollars as their functional currency, and the results of our foreign currency hedging activities are reported in Automotive cost of sales and Selling, administrative, and other expenses. The pre-tax gain/(loss) of this activity for 2012, 2011, and 2010 was $(426) million, $4 million, and $56 million, respectively.

Trade Receivables Trade receivables, recorded on our consolidated balance sheet in Other receivables, net , consist primarily of Automotive sector receivables for vehicles, parts, and accessories. Trade receivables initially are recorded at the transaction amount. We record an allowance for doubtful accounts representing our estimate of\ the probable losses inherent in trade receivables. At every reporting period, we assess the adequacy of our allowance for d\ oubtful accounts taking into consideration recoveries received during that period. Additions to the allowance for doubtful accounts are made by recording charges to bad debt expense reported in Automotive cost of sales. Receivables are charged to the allowance for doubtful accounts when an account is deemed to be uncollec\ tible. Revenue Recognition — Automotive Sector Automotive revenue is generated primarily by sales of vehicles, parts an\ d accessories. Revenue is recorded when all risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to our customers (genera\ lly dealers and distributors). For the majority of our sales, this occurs when products are shipped from our manufacturing \ facilities. When vehicles are shipped to customers or vehicle modifiers on consignment, revenue is recognized whe\ n the vehicle is sold to the ultimate customer. When we give our dealers the right to return eligible parts for credi\ t, we reduce the related revenue for expected returns.

We sell vehicles to daily rental car companies subject to guaranteed repu\ rchase options. These vehicles are accounted for as operating leases. At the time of sale, the proceeds are recorded as deferred revenue in Accrued liabilities and deferred revenue . The difference between the proceeds and the guaranteed repurchase amount is recognized in Automotive revenues over an average term of eight months, using a straight-line method. The cost of the vehicles is recorded in Net investment in operating leases and the difference between the cost of the vehicle and the estimated auction value is depreciated in Automotive cost of sales over the term of the lease. Proceeds from the sale of the vehicle at auction are recognized in Automotive revenues at the time of sale. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, we recorded $1.5 billion and $1.5 billion as deferred revenue, respectively. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 77 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 77 NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Revenue Recognition — Financial Services Sector Financial Services revenue is generated primarily from interest on finan\ ce receivables (including direct financing leases) and is recognized using the interest method. Certain originati\ on costs on receivables are deferred and amortized over the term of the related receivable as a reduction to revenue. Reve\ nue from rental payments received on operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease\ . Initial direct costs related to leases are deferred and amortized over the term of the lease as a reduction to revenue. The accrual of interest on finance receivables and revenue on operating leases is discontinued at the earlier of the time a receivable or account is determined to be uncollectible, at bankruptcy status notification, or greater than 120 da\ ys past due.

Retail and Lease Incentives We offer special retail financing and lease incentives to dealers' customers \ who choose to finance or lease Ford- brand vehicles from Ford Credit. Generally, the estimated cost for these incentives is recorded as a revenue reduc\ tion to Automotive revenues when the vehicle is sold to the dealer. In order to compensate Ford Credit for the lower interest or lease rates offered to the retail customer, we pay the discounted value of the incentive directly to Ford Credit w\ hen it originates the retail finance or lease contract with the dealer's custom\ er. The Financial Services sector recognized revenue of $2.4 billion, $2.8 billion, and $3.2 billion in 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, for the special financing and leasing programs consistent with the earnings process of the underlying \ receivable or operating lease.

Sales and Marketing Incentives Sales and marketing incentives generally are recognized by the Automotive sector as revenue reductions in Automotive revenues . The incentives take the form of cash payments to dealers and dealers' cu\ stomers. The reduction to revenue is accrued at the later of the date the related vehicle is so\ ld or the date the incentive program is both approved and communicated. We generally estimate these accruals using incentive programs that are ap\ proved as of the balance sheet date and are expected to be effective at the beginning of the subsequent period.

Supplier Price Adjustments We frequently negotiate price adjustments with our suppliers throughout a\ production cycle, even after receiving production material. These price adjustments relate to changes in design specifications or ot\ her commercial terms such as economics, productivity, and competitive pricing. We recognize price adjustments when we reach final agreement with our suppliers. In general, we avoid direct price changes in considerati\ on of future business; however, when these occur, our policy is to defer the financial statement impact of any such price \ change given explicitly in consideration of future business where guaranteed volumes are specified.

Raw Material Arrangements We may, at times, negotiate prices for and facilitate the purchase of raw mate\ rials on behalf of our suppliers. These raw material arrangements, which take place independently of any purchas\ e orders being issued to our suppliers, are negotiated at arms' length and do not involve volume guarantees. When w\ e pass the risks and rewards of ownership to our suppliers, including inventory risk, market price risk, and credit r\ isk for the raw material, we record both the cost of the raw material and the income from the subsequent sale to the supplier in \ Automotive cost of sales.

Government Grants and Loan Incentives We receive incentives from U.S. and non-U.S. governments in the form of t\ ax rebates or credits, loans, and grants. Incentives are recorded in the financial statements in accordan\ ce with their purpose, either as a reduction of expense or a reduction of the cost of the capital investment. A premium or a discount is calculated on low-interest or interest-free loans if the stated rate differs from the market rate, unless the governmental authority imposes spe\ cific restrictions on the use of the loan proceeds. The benefit of these incentives generally is recorded when performance i\ s complete and all conditions as specified in the agreement are fulfilled.\ For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 78 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 78 NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Bonus and Profit Sharing We offer various types of bonus and profit sharing benefits to our employees.\ The timing for expense recognition depends on the purpose of the bonus and whether the bonus is contingent \ on the employees ' future service. Our more common bonus payments include:

• Ratification bonuses expensed in the period a labor agreement is ratifie\ d • Operational performance bonuses and protection payments expensed equally\ over the period to payment • Profit sharing payments accrued throughout the year in which the payment\ is earned. Each quarter, we evaluate and adjust the year-to-date accrual to ensure it is consistent \ with the bonus formula We record bonus and profit sharing expenses in Automotive cost of sales or Selling, administrative, and other expenses .

Selected Other Costs Freight, engineering, and research and development costs are included in\ Automotive cost of sales; advertising costs are included in Selling, administrative, and other expenses . Freight costs on goods shipped are expensed at the earlier of revenue recognition or as incurred. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Engineering, research, and \ development costs are expensed as incurred when performed internally or when perform\ ed by a supplier if we guarantee reimbursement. Engineering, research, development, and advertising expe\ nses for the years ended December 31 were as follows (in billions):

201220112010 Engineering, research, and development $5.5 $ 5.3 $5.0 Advertising 4.04.13.9 Presentation of Sales and Sales-Related Taxes We collect and remit taxes assessed by different governmental authorities that are both imposed on and concurrent \ with a revenue-producing transaction between us and our customers. These taxes may include, but are not limited to, sales, use, value-added, and some excise taxes. We report the collection of these taxes on a net basis (excluded from revenues).

NOTE 3. ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED Balance Sheet - Offsetting. In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new accounting standard that requires disclosures about offsetting and related arrangements for recognized financial instruments and derivative instruments. The new accounting standard is effective for us as of January 1, 2013.

Intangibles - Goodwill and Other. In July 2012, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that provides the option to evaluate qualitative factors to determine whether a calculated impair\ ment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets is necessary. The new accounting standard is effective for us as of January 1, 2013. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 79 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 79 NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTSCash equivalents, marketable securities, and derivative financial instru\ ments are presented in our financial statements on a recurring basis at fair value, while other assets and liabilities a\ re measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, such as when we have an asset impairment. Fair Value Measurements In measuring fair value, we use various valuation methodologies and prio\ ritize the use of observable inputs. The use of observable and unobservable inputs and their significance in measurin\ g fair value are reflected in our fair value hierarchy assessment.

• Level 1 - inputs include quoted prices for identical instruments and are\ the most observable • Level 2 - inputs include quoted prices for similar instruments and obser\ vable inputs such as interest rates, currency exchange rates, and yield curves • Level 3 - inputs include data not observable in the market and reflect m\ anagement judgment about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the instruments We review the inputs to the fair value measurements to ensure they are ap\ propriately categorized within the fair value hierarchy. Transfers into and transfers out of the hierarchy levels are recognized a\ s if they had taken place at the end of the reporting period. Valuation Methodologies Cash and Cash Equivalents. Included in Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and which are subject to an insign\ ificant risk of change in value due to interest rate, quoted price, or penalty on withdrawal. A debt security is classified as a cash equivalent if it meets these crit\ eria and if it has a remaining time to maturity of 90 days or less from the date \ of acquisition. Amounts on deposit and available upon demand, or negotiated to provide for daily liquidity without penalt\ y, are classified as Cash and cash equivalents . Time deposits, certificates of deposit, and money market accounts that me\ et the above criteria are reported at par value on our balance sheet and are excluded from the tables below.

Marketable Securities . Investments in securities with a maturity date greater than 90 days a\ t the date of purchase and other securities for which there is more than an insignificant risk \ of change in value due to interest rate, quoted price, or penalty on withdrawal are classified as Marketable securities. We generally measure fair value using prices obtained from pricing services. Pricing methodologies and inputs to valuation mo\ dels used by the pricing services depend on the security type (i.e., asset class). Where possible, fair values are ge\ nerated using market inputs including quoted prices (the closing price in an exchange market), bid prices (the price at w\ hich a buyer stands ready to purchase), and other market information. For fixed income securities that are not actively t\ raded, the pricing services use alternative methods to determine fair value for the securities, including: quotes for simila\ r fixed-income securities, matrix pricing, discounted cash flow using benchmark curves, or other factors to determine fair val\ ue. In certain cases, when market data are not available, we may use broker quotes to determine fair value.

A review is performed on the security prices received from our pricing se\ rvices, which includes discussion and analysis of the inputs used by the pricing services to value our securit\ ies. We also compare the price of certain securities sold close to the quarter-end to the price of the same security at the b\ alance sheet date to ensure the reported fair value is reasonable. For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 80 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 80 NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)Derivative Financial Instruments. Our derivatives are over-the-counter customized derivative transactions \ and are not exchange traded. We estimate the fair value of these instruments using industry-standard v\ aluation models such as a discounted cash flow. These models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts t\ o a present value using market-based expectations for interest rates, foreign exchange rates, co\ mmodity prices, and the contractual terms of the derivative instruments. The discount rate used is the relevant interbank deposit rate (e.g., LI\ BOR) plus an adjustment for non-performance risk. The adjustment reflects the full credit default swap ("CDS") spread ap\ plied to a net exposure, by counterparty, considering the master netting agreements and posted collateral. We use our counterparty's CDS spread when we are in a net asset position and our own CDS spread when we are i\ n a net liability position. In certain cases, market data are not available and we use broker quotes and models (e.g.\ , Black Scholes) to determine fair value. This includes situations where there is illiquidity for a particular currency\ or commodity or for longer-dated instruments. Ford Credit's two Ford Upgrade Exchange Linked securitization transactio\ ns ("FUEL Notes") had derivative features that included a mandatory exchange to Ford Credit unsecured notes when F\ ord Credit's senior unsecured debt received two investment grade credit ratings among Fitch, Moody's, and S&P, and a make-whole provision. Ford Credit estimated the fair value of these features by comparing the fair value of the FUEL\ Notes to the value of a hypothetical debt instrument without these features. In the second quarter of 2012, Ford \ Credit received two investment grade credit ratings, thereby triggering the mandatory exchange feature and the FUEL Notes derivatives were extinguished. Finance Receivables. We measure finance receivables at fair value for purposes of disclosure (\ see Note 7) using internal valuation models. These models project future cash flows of financing contracts based on s\ cheduled contract payments (including principal and interest). The projected cash flows are discounted to present value based on assumptions regarding credit losses, pre-payment speed, and applicable s\ preads to approximate current rates. Our assumptions regarding pre-payment speed and credit losses are based on h\ istorical performance. The fair value of finance receivables is categorized within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

On a nonrecurring basis, when retail contracts are greater than 120 days past due or deemed to be uncollectible, or if individual dealer loans are probable of foreclosure, we use the fair val\ ue of collateral, adjusted for estimated costs to sell, to determine the fair value adjustment to our receivables. The collateral for retail receivables is the vehicle financed, and for dealer loans is real estate or other property. The fair value measurements for retail receivables are based on the numb\ er of contracts multiplied by the loss severity and the probability of default ( "POD") percentage, or the outstanding receivable balances multiplied by \ the average recovery value ( "ARV") percentage to determine the fair value adjustment.

The fair value measurements for dealer loans are based on an assessment \ of the estimated fair value of collateral. The assessment is performed by reviewing various appraisals, which inclu\ de total adjusted appraised value of land and improvements, alternate use appraised value, broker's opinion of value, \ and purchase offers. The fair value adjustment is determined by comparing the net carrying value of the dealer loan and th\ e estimated fair value of collateral.

Debt. We measure debt at fair value for purposes of disclosure (see Note 17) \ using quoted prices for our own debt with approximately the same remaining maturities, where possible. Where\ quoted prices are not available, we estimate fair value using discounted cash flows and market-based expectations for\ interest rates, credit risk, and the contractual terms of the debt instruments. For certain short-term debt with an orig\ inal maturity date of one year or less, we assume that book value is a reasonable approximation of the debt's fair value. \ The fair value of debt is categorized within Level 2 of the hierarchy.

Automotive Sector Our Automotive sector notes receivable consist primarily of amounts loaned t\ o our unconsolidated affiliates. Performance of this group of receivables is evaluated based on payment a\ ctivity and the financial stability of the debtor. Notes receivable initially are recorded at fair value and subsequentl\ y measured at amortized cost. Notes receivable, net were as follows (in millions):

December 31, 2012 December 31, 2011 Notes receivable $542 $ 384 Less: Allowance for credit losses (23 ) (29 ) Notes receivable, net $519 $ 355 Financial Services Sector Our Financial Services sector finance receivables primarily relate to Fo\ rd Credit, but also include the Other Financial Services segment and certain intersector eliminations. Our Financial Services sector segments the North America and International portfolio of finance receivables into "consumer" and "non-consumer" receivables. The receivables are secured by the vehicles, inventory, or other property being financed.

Consumer Segment. Receivables in this portfolio segment include products offered to individuals and businesses that finance the acquisition of Ford and Lincoln vehicles from dealers f\ or personal or commercial use. Retail financing includes retail installment contracts for new and used vehicles and dire\ ct financing leases with retail customers, government entities, daily rental companies, and fleet customers.

Non-Consumer Segment. Receivables in this portfolio segment include products offered to automotive dealers. The products include:

• Dealer financing – wholesale loans to dealers to finance the purchase of vehicle inve\ ntory, also known as floorplan financing, and loans to dealers to finance working capital and\ improvements to dealership facilities, finance the purchase of dealership real estate, and other dealer vehicle\ program financing. Wholesale is approximately 95% of our dealer financing • Other financing – purchased receivables primarily related to the sale of parts and a\ ccessories to dealers Finance receivables are recorded at the time of origination or purchase \ for the principal amount financed and are subsequently reported at amortized cost, net of any allowance for credit\ losses.

FINANCE RECEIVABLES (Continued)Aging. For all classes of finance receivables, we define "past due" as any payment, including principal and interest, that has not been collected and is at least 31 days past the c\ ontractual due date. Recorded investment of consumer accounts greater than 90 days past due and still accruing inter\ est was $13 million and $14 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The recorded investment of non-consumer accounts greater than 90 days past due and still accruing interest was $5 million and de minimis at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The aging analysis of our Financial Services sector finance receivables \ balances at December 31 were as follows (in millions): 2012 2011 North America International Total North America International Total Consumer 31-60 days past due $ 783 $50 $833 $ 732 $ 64 $ 796 61-90 days past due 97 18115 682896 91-120 days past due 21 930 221234 Greater than 120 days past due 52 2981 7043113 Total past due 953106 1,059 892147 1,039 Current 37,28710,067 47,354 36,111 10,601 46,712 Consumer finance receivables $ 38,240 $ 10,173 $48,413 $37,003 $10,748 $ 47,751 Non-Consumer Total past due $29 $ 11 $ 40 $ 30 $ 9 $ 39 Current 20,0897,617 27,706 17,1948,847 26,041 Non-Consumer finance receivables 20,1187,628 27,746 17,2248,856 26,080 Total recorded investment $ 58,358 $17,801 $76,159 $54,227 $19,604 $ 73,831 Consumer Credit Quality . When originating all classes of consumer receivables, we use a propri\ etary scoring system that measures the credit quality of the receivables using several\ factors, such as credit bureau information, consumer credit risk scores (e.g., FICO score), and contract character\ istics. In addition to our proprietary scoring system, we consider other individual consumer factors, such as employmen\ t history, financial stability, and capacity to pay. Subsequent to origination, we review the credit quality of retail and di\ rect financing lease receivables based on customer payment activity. As each customer develops a payment history, we use an internally-developed behavioral scoring model to assist in determining the best collection strategies. \ Based on data from this scoring model, contracts are categorized by collection risk. Our collection models evaluate seve\ ral factors, including origination characteristics, updated credit bureau data, and payment patterns. These models allow for more focused collection activity on higher- risk accounts and are used to refine our risk-based staffing model to ensure collection resources are aligned with portfolio risk.

Credit quality ratings for our consumer receivables are based on aging (\ as described in the aging table above). Consumer receivables credit quality ratings are as follows:

• Pass – current to 60 days past due • Special Mention – 61 to 120 days past due and in intensified collection status • Substandard – greater than 120 days past due and for which the uncollectible portion of the receivables has already been charged-off, as measured using the fair value of collateral Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 91 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 91 NOTE 7. FINANCE RECEIVABLES (Continued)Non-Consumer Credit Quality . We extend credit to dealers primarily in the form of lines of credit to p\ urchase new Ford and Lincoln vehicles as well as used vehicles. Each non-consumer l\ ending request is evaluated by taking into consideration the borrower's financial condition and the underlying coll\ ateral securing the loan. We use a proprietary model to assign each dealer a risk rating. This model uses historical performance data to identify key factors abou\ t a dealer that we consider significant in predicting a dealer's ability to \ meet its financial obligations. We also consider numerous other financial and qualitative factors including capitalizatio\ n and leverage, liquidity and cash flow, profitability, and credit history with ourselves and other creditors. A dealer's risk rating does not reflect any guarantees or a dealer owner's net worth. Dealers are assigned to one of four groups according to their risk ratin\ g as follows:

• Group I – strong to superior financial metrics • Group II – fair to favorable financial metrics • Group III – marginal to weak financial metrics • Group IV – poor financial metrics, including dealers classified as uncollecti\ ble We suspend credit lines and extend no further funding to dealers classifi\ ed in Group IV.

We regularly review our model to confirm the continued business significa\ nce and statistical predictability of the factors and update the model to incorporate new factors or other informa\ tion that improves its statistical predictability. In addition, we verify the existence of the assets collateralizing the r\ eceivables by physical audits of vehicle inventories, which are performed with increased frequency for higher-ris\ k (i.e., Group III and Group IV) dealers. We perform a credit review of each dealer at least annually and adjust the \ dealer's risk rating, if necessary.

Performance of non-consumer receivables is evaluated based on our intern\ al dealer risk rating analysis, as payment for wholesale receivables generally is not required until the de\ aler has sold the vehicle. A dealer has the same risk rating for all of its dealer financing regardless of the type \ of financing. The credit quality analysis of our dealer financing receivables at Decem\ ber 31 were as follows (in millions): 2012 2011 North America International Total North America International Total Dealer Financing Group I $ 16,526 $4,551 $ 21,077 $13,506 $ 5,157 $ 18,663 Group II 2,608 1,4054,013 2,6541,975 4,629 Group III 2771,279 1,556 3311,337 1,668 Group IV 18 725 101020 Total recorded investment $ 19,429 $7,242 $ 26,671 $16,501 $ 8,479 $ 24,980 For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 92 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 92 NOTE 7. FINANCE RECEIVABLES (Continued) Impaired Receivables. Impaired consumer receivables include accounts that have been re-written\ or modified in reorganization proceedings pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code that are\ considered to be Troubled Debt Restructurings ("TDRs"), as well as all accounts greater than 120 days past due. Impaired non-consumer receivables represent accounts with dealers that have weak or poor financial metrics\ or dealer financing that have been modified in TDRs. The recorded investment of consumer receivables that were impaired at December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $422 million or 0.9% of consumer receivables, and $382 million or 0.8% of consumer receivables, respectively. The recorded investment of non-consumer receivables that were impaired at December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $47 million or 0.2% of non-consumer receivables, and $64 million or 0.2% of the non-consumer receivables, respectively. Impaired finance receivables are evaluated both collectively and specifi\ cally. See Note 9 for additional information related to the development of our allowance for credit losses.

Non-Accrual Receivables. The accrual of revenue is discontinued at the earlier of the time a receivable is determined to be uncollectible, at bankruptcy status notification, or gr\ eater than 120 days past due. Accounts may be restored to accrual status only when a customer settles all past-due def\ iciency balances and future payments are reasonably assured. For receivables in non-accrual status, subsequent f\ inancing revenue is recognized only to the extent a payment is received. Payments generally are applied first to o\ utstanding interest and then to the unpaid principal balance. The recorded investment of consumer receivables in non-accrual status wa\ s $304 million or 0.6% of our consumer receivables, at December 31, 2012, and $402 million or 0.9% of our consumer receivables, at December 31, 2011. The recorded investment of non-consumer receivables in non-accrual statu\ s was $29 million or 0.1% of our non- consumer receivables, at December 31, 2012, and $27 million or 0.1% of our non-consumer receivables, at December 31, 2011.

Troubled Debt Restructurings. A restructuring of debt constitutes a TDR if we grant a concession to a customer or borrower for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor's financial\ difficulties that we otherwise would not consider. Consumer contracts that have a modified interest rate that is below t\ he market rate and those modified in reorganization proceedings pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code are cons\ idered to be TDRs. Non-consumer receivables subject to forbearance, moratoriums, extension agreements, o\ r other actions intended to minimize economic loss and to avoid foreclosure or repossession of collateral are\ classified as TDRs. We do not grant concessions on the principal balance of our loans. If a contract is mod\ ified in reorganization proceeding, all payment requirements of the reorganization plan need to be met before remaining \ balances are forgiven. The outstanding recorded investment at time of modification for consumer receivables tha\ t are considered to be TDRs were $249 million or 0.5% and $370 million or 0.8% of our consumer receivables during the period ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The subsequent default rate of TDRs that were previously modified in TDRs within the last twelve months and resulted in repossession for cons\ umer contracts was 5.8% and 3.7% of TDRs at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The outstanding recorded investment of non-consumer loans involved in TDRs was de minimis during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Finance receivables involved in TDRs are specifically assessed for impairment. An impairment charge is recorded as part of the provision to the allowance for credit losses for the amount that the recorded investment of the receivable exceeds its estimated fair value. Estimated fair value is based on either the present value of the expected future cash flows of the receivable discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate, or for loans where foreclosure is probable the fair value of the collateral adjusted for estimated costs to sell. The allowance for credit losses related to consumer TDRs was $19 million and $16 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The allowance for credit losses related to non-consumer TDRs was de minimis during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 93 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 93 NOTE 8. NET INVESTMENT IN OPERATING LEASESNet investment in operating leases on our balance sheet consists primarily of lease contracts for vehicles\ with retail customers, daily rental companies, government entities, and fleet custom\ ers. Assets subject to operating leases are depreciated using the straight-line method over the term of the lease to\ reduce the asset to its estimated residual value. Estimated residual values are based on assumptions for used vehicle pric\ es at lease termination and the number of vehicles that are expected to be returned.

ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES Automotive SectorWe estimate credit loss reserves for notes receivable on an individual re\ ceivable basis. A specific impairment allowance reserve is established based on expected future cash flows, th\ e fair value of any collateral, and the financial condition of the debtor. Following is an analysis of the allowance for credit losses for the y\ ears ended December 31 (in millions): 2012 2011 Allowance for credit losses Beginning balance $29 $ 120 Charge-offs (7)— Recoveries (11 ) (85 ) Provision for credit losses 6 2 Other 6 (8) Ending balance $23 $ 29 Financial Services Sector The allowance for credit losses represents our estimate of the probable \ loss on the collection of finance receivables and operating leases as of the balance sheet date. The adequacy of the allowance for credit losses is assessed quarterly and the assumptions and models used in establishing the allowance are ev\ aluated regularly. Because credit losses may vary substantially over time, estimating credit losses requires a number\ of assumptions about matters that are uncertain. The majority of credit losses are attributable to Ford Credit's consumer\ receivables segment. Additions to the allowance for credit losses are made by recording charg\ es to Provision for credit and insurance losses on the sector income statement. The uncollectible portion of finance receivables and investments in oper\ ating leases are charged to the allowance for credit losses at the earlier of \ when an account is deemed to be uncollectible or when an account is 120 days delinquent, taking into consideration the financial condition of the customer, borrower, or lessee, the value of the collateral, recourse to guarantors, and other f\ actors. In the event we repossess the collateral, the receivable is written off and we record the collateral at its estimated fair value less costs to\ sell and report it in Other assets on the balance sheet. Recoveries on finance receivables and investment\ in operating leases previously charged- off as uncollectible are credited to the allowance for credit losses.

Consumer We estimate the allowance for credit losses on our consumer receivables a\ nd on our investments in operating leases using a combination of measurement models and management judgment. The models consider factors such as historical trends in credit losses and recoveries (including key metrics such as d\ elinquencies, repossessions, and bankruptcies), the composition of the present portfolio (including vehicle brand, term, ri\ sk evaluation, and new/used vehicles), trends in historical and projected used vehicle values, and economic conditions. \ Estimates from these models rely on historical information and may not fully reflect losses inherent in the present por\ tfolio. Therefore, we may adjust the estimate to reflect management judgment regarding justifiable changes in recent econ\ omic trends and conditions, portfolio composition, and other relevant factors.

We make projections of two key assumptions to assist in estimating the co\ nsumer allowance for credit losses:

• Frequency - number of finance receivables and operating lease contracts \ that are expected to default over the loss emergence period, measured as repossessions • Loss severity - expected difference between the amount of money a customer owes when the finance con\ tract is charged off and the amount received, net of expenses from selling the repossessed \ vehicle, including any recoveries from the customer Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 95 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 95 NOTE 9. ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES (Continued) Collective Allowance for Credit Losses. The collective allowance is evaluated primarily using a collective loss-\ to- receivables ("LTR") model that, based on historical experience, indicates credit losse\ s have been incurred in the portfolio even though the particular accounts that are uncollectible cannot be spe\ cifically identified. The LTR model is based on the most recent years of history. Each LTR is calculated by dividing credit losses by average end-of-period rece\ ivables or average end-of-period investment in operating leases, excluding unearned\ interest supplements and allowance for credit losses. An average LTR is calculated for each class and multiplied by the end-of-period bala\ nces for that given class. The loss emergence period ("LEP") is a key assumption within our model\ s and represents the average amount of time between when a loss event first occurs and when it is charged off. This time period starts when the consumer begins to experience financial difficulty. It is evidenced, typically through delinquency, before eventually resulting in a charge-off. The LEP is a multiplier in the calculation of the collective consumer allowance\ for credit losses.

For accounts greater than 120 days past due, the uncollectible portion is charged-off such that the remaining recorded investment is equal to the estimated fair value of the collateral less c\ osts to sell.

Specific Allowance for Impaired Receivables . Consumer receivables involved in TDRs are specifically assessed for impairment. A specific allowance is estimated based on the present value of the expec\ ted future cash flows of the receivable discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate or the fair value of any collateral adjusted for e\ stimated costs to sell. After establishing the collective and specific allowance for credit loss\ es, if management believes the allowance does not reflect all losses inherent in the portfolio due to changes in recen\ t economic trends and conditions, or other relevant factors, an adjustment is made based on management judgment.

Non-Consumer We estimate the allowance for credit losses for non-consumer receivables \ based on historical LTR ratios, expected future cash flows, and the fair value of collateral. Collective Allowance for Credit Losses . We estimate an allowance for non-consumer receivables that are not specifically identified as impaired using a LTR model for each financing product based on historical experience. This LTR is an average of the most recent historical experience and is calculated\ consistent with the consumer receivables LTR approach. All accounts that are specifically identified as impaired are excluded f\ rom the calculation of the non-specific or collective allowance.

Specific Allowance for Impaired Receivables . The dealer financing is evaluated by segmenting individual loans by the \ risk characteristics of the loan (such as the amount of the loan, the n\ ature of the collateral, and the financial status of the debtor). The loans are analyzed to determine whether individual loans are impaire\ d, and a specific allowance is estimated based on the present value of the expected future cash flows o\ f the receivable discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral adjusted for e\ stimated costs to sell.

After establishment of the collective and the specific allowance for cre\ dit losses, if management believes the allowance does not reflect all losses inherent in the portfolio due to c\ hanges in recent economic trends and conditions or other relevant factors, an adjustment is made based on management judgme\ nt.

(b) Although we manage the day-to-day operations for Ford Romania, through D\ ecember 31, 2012 the Romanian government contractually maintained the ability to influence key decisions regarding the business, including\ implementation of the business plan, employment levels, and capital expenditure and investment levels. As a result, we did not consolidate our investment in Ford Romania as of\ year-end 2012. We received $610 million, $316 million, and $337 million of dividends from these affiliated companies for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 99 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 99 NOTE 12. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIESA VIE is an entity that either (i) has insufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without ad\ ditional subordinated financial support or (ii) has equity investors who lack t\ he characteristics of a controlling financial interest. A VIE is consolidated by its primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary has both the power to direct the activities that\ most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and the obligatio\ n to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

We have the power to direct the activities of an entity when our manageme\ nt has the ability to make key operating decisions, such as decisions regarding capital or product investment or \ manufacturing production schedules. We have the power to direct the activities of our special purpose entities when \ we have the ability to exercise discretion in the servicing of financial assets, issue additional debt, exercise a unilate\ ral call option, add assets to revolving structures, or control investment decisions. Assets recognized as a result of consolidating these VIEs do not represe\ nt additional assets that could be used to satisfy claims against our general assets. Conversely, liabilities recognized as a result of consolidating these VIEs do not \ represent additional claims on our general assets; rather, they represent claims against the specific assets of the consolidated VIEs. Automotive Sector VIEs of Which We are Not the Primary Beneficiary Getrag Ford Transmissions GmbH ("GFT") is a joint venture that constitutes a signif\ icant VIE of which we are not the primary beneficiary, and which was not consolidated as of December 31, 2012 or December 31, 2011. GFT is a 50/50 joint venture with Getrag Deutsche Venture GmbH and Co. KG. Ford and its related parties purchase substanti\ ally all of the joint venture's output. We do not, however, have the power to direct economically-significant activities of the jo\ int venture.

We also have suppliers that are VIEs of which we are not the primary bene\ ficiary. Although we have provided certain suppliers guarantees and other financial support, we do not have any key\ decision making power related to their businesses.

Our maximum exposure to loss from VIEs of which we are not the primary b\ eneficiary was as follows (in millions):

December 31, 2012 December 31, 2011 Change in MaximumExposure Investments $242 $ 229 $ 13 Guarantees and other supplier arrangements 56 (1) Total maximum exposure $247 $ 235 $ 12 Financial Services Sector VIEs of Which We are the Primary Beneficiary Our Financial Services sector uses special purpose entities to issue ass\ et-backed securities in transactions to public and private investors, bank conduits, and government-sponsored entities \ or others who obtain funding from government programs. We have deemed most of these special purpose entities to be VIEs. The asset-backed securities are secured by finance receivables and interests in net investments in operating lea\ ses. The assets continue to be consolidated by us. We retain interests in our securitization VIEs, including subordinated se\ curities issued by the VIEs, rights to cash held for the benefit of the securitization investors, and rights to the exces\ s cash flows not needed to pay the debt and other obligations issued or arising in the securitization transactions.

The transactions create and pass along risks to the variable interest ho\ lders, depending on the assets securing the debt and the specific terms of the transactions. We aggregate and analyze the asset-backed securitization transactions based on the risk profile of the product and the type of funding structu\ re, including:

• Retail - consumer credit risk and pre-payment risk • Wholesale - dealer credit risk • Net investments in operating lease - vehicle residual value risk, consum\ er credit risk, and pre-payment risk For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 100 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 100 NOTE 12. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES (Continued) As a residual interest holder, we are exposed to the underlying residual and credit risk of the colla\ teral, and are exposed to interest rate risk in some transactions. The amount of risk absorbed by our residual interests generally is represented by and limited to the amount of overcollaterization of the a\ ssets securing the debt and any cash reserves.

We have no obligation to repurchase or replace any securitized asset that\ subsequently becomes delinquent in payment or otherwise is in default, except under standard representation\ s and warranties such as good and marketable title to the assets, or when certain changes are made to the underlying \ asset contracts. Securitization investors have no recourse to us or our other assets and have no right to require us to re\ purchase the investments. We generally have no obligation to provide liquidity or contribute cash or additional assets \ to the VIEs and do not guarantee any asset-backed securities. We may be required to support the performance of certain securitization t\ ransactions, however, by increasing cash reserves. Although not contractually required, we regularly support our wholesale \ securitization programs by repurchasing receivables of a dealer from a VIE when the dealer's performance is at r\ isk, which transfers the corresponding risk of loss from the VIE to us. In order to continue to fund the wholesale receivab\ les, we also may contribute additional cash or wholesale receivables if the collateral falls below required levels. The balances of cash related to these contributions were $0 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and ranged from $0 to $373 million during 2012 and $0 to $490 million during 2011. In addition, while not contractually required, we may purchase the c\ ommercial paper issued by Ford Credit's FCAR Owner Trust asset-backed commercial paper program ("FCAR").

The following table includes assets to be used to settle the liabilities\ of the consolidated VIEs. We may retain debt issued by consolidated VIEs and this debt is excluded from the table bel\ ow. We hold the right to the excess cash flows from the assets that are not needed to pay liabilities of the consolidat\ ed VIEs. The assets and debt reflected on our consolidated balance sheet were as follows (in billions):

Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 101 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 101 NOTE 12. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES (Continued) Interest expense on securitization debt related to consolidated VIEs was\ $760 million, $994 million, and $1,247 million in 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.

VIEs that are exposed to interest rate or currency risk have reduced the\ ir risks by entering into derivative transactions. In certain instances, we have entered into offsetting derivative transactions with the VIE to protect the VIE from th\ e risks that are not mitigated through the derivative transactions between the V\ IE and its external counterparty. In other instances, we have entered into derivative transactions with the counter\ party to protect the counterparty from risks absorbed through derivative transactions with the VIEs. See Note 18 for\ additional information regarding the accounting for derivatives.

Our exposures based on the fair value of derivative instruments with ext\ ernal counterparties related to consolidated VIEs that support our securitization transactions were as follows (in m\ illions):

The joint venture provides consumer and dealer financing in its local ma\ rkets and is financed by external debt and additional subordinated debt provided by the joint venture partner. The operating agreement indicates that the power to direct economically significant activities is shared with the joint v\ enture partner, and the obligation to absorb losses or right to receive benefits resides primarily with the joint venture partn\ er. Our investment in the joint venture is accounted for as an equity method investment and is included in Equity in net assets of affiliated companies. Our maximum exposure to any potential losses associated with this VIE is limited to \ our equity investment, and amounted to $71 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

NET PROPERTY AND LEASE COMMITMENTS Net PropertyNet property includes land, buildings and land improvements, machinery a\ nd equipment, special tools, and other assets that we use in our normal operations. These assets are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and impairments. We capitalize new assets when we expect to use the asset for more than one year. Routine maintenance and repair costs are expensed when incurred.

Property and equipment are depreciated primarily using the straight-line\ method over the estimated useful life of the asset. Useful lives range from 3 years to 36 years. The estimated useful lives generally are 14.5 years for machinery and equipment, 3 years for software (8 years for mainframe and client based software)\ , 30 years for land improvements, and 36 years for buildings. Special tools generally are amortized over the \ expected life of a product program using a straight- line method. If the expected production volumes for major product progr\ ams associated with the tools decline significantly, we accelerate the amortization reflecting the rate of decline.

Net property was as follows (in millions):

These conditional asset retirement obligations relate to the estimated costs for asbestos abatem\ ent and removal of polychlorinated biphenyl ("PCB" ).

Asbestos abatement costs were estimated using site-specific surveys wher\ e available and a per/square foot estimate where surveys were unavailable. PCB removal costs were based on histori\ cal removal costs per transformer and applied to transformers identified by a PCB transformer global survey we conduct\ ed.

See Note 17 for additional details. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 105 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 105 NOTE 16. RETIREMENT BENEFITSWe provide pension benefits and OPEB, such as health care and life insura\ nce, to employees in many of our operations around the world. Plan obligations are measured based on the\ present value of projected future benefit payments for all participants for services rendered to date. The measurement of projected future benefits is dependent on the provisions of each specific plan, demographics of the group covered \ by the plan, and other key measurement assumptions. For plans that provide benefits dependent on salary assump\ tions, we include a projection of salary growth in our measurements. No assumption is made regarding any potential chan\ ges to benefit provisions beyond those to which we are presently committed (e.g., in existing labor contracts).

The net periodic benefit costs associated with the Company's defined ben\ efit pension plans are determined using assumptions regarding the benefit obligation and the market-related valu\ e of plan assets as of the beginning of each year. We have elected to use a market-related value of plan assets to calculate\ the expected return on assets in net periodic benefit costs. The market-related value recognizes changes in the fair value of plan as\ sets in a systematic manner over five years. Net periodic benefit costs are recorded in Automotive cost of sales and Selling, administrative, and other expenses . The funded status of the benefit plans, which represents the difference between the benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets, is calculated on a plan-by-plan basis. The benefit obligation and related funded status are determined using assumptions as of the end of each year. The impact of plan amendments and actuarial gains and losses are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) and generally are amortized as a component of net periodic cost over the remaining service period of our active employ\ ees. We record a curtailment when an event occurs that significantly reduces the expected years of future service o\ r eliminates the accrual of defined benefits for the future services of a significant number of employees. We record a curtailment gain when the employees who are entitled to the benefits terminate their employment; we record a curtailment loss\ when it becomes probable a loss will occur.

Our policy for funded pension plans is to contribute annually, at a minimum, amounts required by applicable laws and regulations. We may make contributions beyond those legally required. In general, our\ plans are funded, with the main exceptions being certain plans in Germany, and U.S. defined benefit plans for senior management. In such cases, \ an unfunded liability is recorded.

Employee Retirement and Savings Plans. We, and certain of our subsidiaries, sponsor plans to provide pension benefits for retired employees. We have qualified defined benefit retirement plans in the United States c\ overing hourly and salaried employees. The principal hourly plan covers Ford employees represented by the UAW. The salaried plan covers substantially all other Ford employees in the United States hired\ on or before December 31, 2003. The hourly plan provides noncontributory benefits related to employee service. The salaried plan provides similar noncontributory benefits and contributory benefits related to pay and service. Other U.S. and no\ n-U.S. subsidiaries have separate plans that generally provide similar types of benefits for their employees. We established, effective January 1, 2004, a defined contribution plan covering salaried U\ .S. employees hired on or after that date. Effective October 24, 2011, hourly U.S. employees represented by the UAW hired on or after that date also participate in a defined contribution plan.

On April 27, 2012, we announced a program to offer voluntary lump-sum pension payout options to eligible salaried U.S. retirees and former salaried employees that, if accepted, would set\ tle our obligation to them. The program provides participants with a one-time choice of electing to receive a lump-sum se\ ttlement of their remaining pension benefit. Offers to eligible participants began in August 2012 and will continue through 2013. In 2012, as part of this vo\ luntary lump sum program, the Company settled $1.2 billion of its pension obligations for salaried retirees.

The expense for our worldwide defined contribution plans was $167 million, $131 million, and $123 million in 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. This includes the expense for company matching contributions to our prim\ ary employee savings plan in the United States of $70 million, $54 million, and $52 million in 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. OPEB. We, and certain of our subsidiaries, sponsor plans to provide OPEB for re\ tired employees, primarily certain health care and life insurance benefits. The Ford Salaried Health Care Plan (the "Plan") provides retiree healt\ h care benefits for Ford salaried employees in the United States hired before J\ une 1, 2001. U.S. salaried employees hired on or after June 1, 2001 are covered by a separate plan that provides for annu\ al company allocations to employee-specific notional accounts to be used to fund postretirement health care benefits\ . The Plan also covers Ford hourly non-UAW represented employees in the United States hired before November 19, 200\ 7. U.S. hourly employees hired on or after November 19, 2007 are eligible to participate in a separate health care \ plan that provides defined contributions made by Ford to individual participant accounts. UAW-represented employees hired before November 19, 2007 are covered by the\ UAW Retiree Medical Benefits Trust (the "UAW VEBA Trust"), an independent, non-Ford sponsored voluntary employee beneficiary association trust. Company-paid postretirement life insuran\ ce benefits also are provided to U.S. salaried employees hired before January 1, 2004 and all U.S. hourly employees. 106 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 106 NOTE 16. RETIREMENT BENEFITS (Continued) Effective August 1, 2008, the Company-paid retiree basic life insurance benefits w\ ere capped at $25,000 for eligible existing and future salaried retirees. Salaried employees hired on or a\ fter January 1, 2004 are not eligible for retiree basic life insurance.

RETIREMENT BENEFITS (Continued) As a result of various personnel-reduction programs (discussed in Note \ 23), we have recognized curtailments in the U.S. and Canadian OPEB plans. In 2011, we recognized a settlement loss of $109 million associated with the partial settlement of a Belgium pension plan. In 2012, we changed our accounting policy for recognizing unamortized ga\ ins or losses upon the settlement of plan obligations. We now recognize a proportionate amount of the unamortized gains and loss\ es if the cost of all settlements during the year exceeds the interest component of net periodic cost for \ the affected plan. Prior to 2012, we recognized a proportionate amount of the unamortized gains and losses if the cost of \ all settlements during the year exceeded both interest and service cost for the affected plan. The Company believes this change in accounting principle is preferable a\ s it results in the earlier recognition of unamortized gains and losses th\ at previously had been deferred and recognized over time.

An incremental settlement loss of $250 million related to the U.S. salaried lump sum program has been recognized during 2012 as a result of this change with a corresponding balance shee\ t reduction in Accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) . This accounting change does not impact financial results in prior period\ s.

The financial impact of the curtailments and settlements is reflected in\ the tables above and the expense is recorded in Automotive cost of sales and Selling, administrative, and other expenses .

The following table summarizes the assumptions used to determine benefit\ obligation and expense:

RETIREMENT BENEFITS (Continued) Estimated Future Benefit Payments The following table presents estimated future gross benefit payments (i\ n millions):

Our investment objectives for the U.S. plans are to minimize the vola\ tility of the value of our U.S. pension assets relative to U.S. pension liabilities an\ d to ensure assets are sufficient to pay plan benefits. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, in 2011 we adopted a broad global pension de-risking strategy, including a revised U.S. investment strategy which increases the match\ ing characteristics of our assets relative to our liabilities. Our U.S. tar\ get asset allocations, which we expect to reach over the next several years as the plans achieve full funding, are 80% fixed income and 20% growth assets (primarily alternative investments, which include hedge funds, real estate, private equity, and public equity). Our largest non-U.S. plans (Ford U.K. and Ford Canada) have similar investment objectives to the U.S. pl\ ans. We expect to reach target asset allocations similar to the new U.S. target asset allocations over the next several y\ ears, subject to legal requirements in each country.

Investment strategies and policies for the U.S. plans and the largest no\ n-U.S. plans reflect a balance of risk-reducing and return-seeking considerations. The objective of minimizing the volatility of assets relative to liabili\ ties is addressed primarily through asset - liability matching, asset diversification, and\ hedging. The fixed income target asset allocation matches the bond-like and long-dated nature of the pension liabilities. \ Assets are broadly diversified within asset classes to achieve risk-adjusted returns that in total lower asset volatility re\ lative to the liabilities. Our rebalancing policies ensure actual allocations are in line with target allocations as appropriate. \ Strategies to address the goal of ensuring sufficient assets to pay benefits include target allocations to a broad array of as\ set classes, and strategies within asset classes that provide adequate returns, diversification, and liquidity.

All assets are externally managed and most assets are actively managed. \ Managers are not permitted to invest outside of the asset class (e.g., fixed income, public equity, alternatives) or strategy for which they have been appointed. We use investment guidelines and recurring audits as tools to ensure inve\ stment managers invest solely within the investment strategy they have been provided.

Derivatives are permitted for fixed income investment and public equity \ managers to use as efficient substitutes for traditional securities and to manage exposure to interest rate and forei\ gn exchange risks. Interest rate and foreign currency derivative instruments are used for the purpose of hedging chan\ ges in the fair value of assets that result from interest rate changes and currency fluctuations. Interest rate derivati\ ves also are used to adjust portfolio duration. Derivatives may not be used to leverage or to alter the economic exposur\ e to an asset class outside the scope of the mandate an investment manager has been given. Alternative investment managers are permitted to employ leverage (including through the use of derivatives or other tools) that may alt\ er economic exposure.

Significant Concentrations of Risk. Significant concentrations of risk in our plan assets relate to intere\ st rate, equity, and operating risk. In order to minimize asset volatility relative to t\ he liabilities, a portion of plan assets is allocated to fixed income investments that are exposed to interest rate risk. Rate i\ ncreases generally will result in a decline in fixed income assets while reducing the present value of the liabilities. Conv\ ersely, rate decreases will increase fixed income assets, partially offsetting the related increase in the liabilities.

RETIREMENT BENEFITS (Continued) In order to ensure assets are sufficient to pay benefits, a portion of plan assets is allocated to growth\ assets (equity investments and alternative investments) that are expected over time to\ earn higher returns with more volatility than fixed income investments which more closely match pension liabilities. Within\ equities, risk is mitigated by constructing a portfolio that is broadly diversified by geography, market capitalization, manager mandate size, investment style and process. Within alternative investments, risk is similarly mitigated by\ constructing a portfolio that is broadly diversified by asset class, investment strategy, manager, style and process.

Operating risks include the risks of inadequate diversification and weak\ controls. To mitigate these risks, investments are diversified across and within asset classes in support of investment\ objectives. Policies and practices to address operating risks include ongoing manager oversight (e.g., style adherenc\ e, team strength, firm health, and internal risk controls), plan and asset class investment guidelines and instructions \ that are communicated to managers, and periodic compliance and audit reviews to ensure adherence.

At year-end 2012, within the total fair value of our assets in major wor\ ldwide plans, we held less than 2% of fixed income investments in the obligations of Greece, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, and Spain. Also at year-end 2012, we held less than 2% in Ford securities.

Expected Long-Term Rate of Return on Assets. The long-term return assumption at year-end 2012 is 7.38% for the U.S. plans, 7.25% for the U.K. plans, and 6.75% for the Canadian plans, and averages 6.74% for all non-U.S. plans. A generally consistent approach is used worldwide to develop this assumpti\ on. This approach considers various sources, primarily inputs from a range of advisors for long-term capital market r\ eturns, inflation, bond yields, and other variables, adjusted for specific aspects of our investment strategy by plan. Histo\ rical returns also are considered where appropriate.

At December 31, 2012, our actual 10-year annual rate of return on pension plan assets was 11.1% for the U.S. plans, 8.7% for the U.K. plans, and 6.4% for the Canadian plans. At December 31, 2011, our actual 10-year annual rate of return on pension plan assets was 8.6% for the U.S. plans, 6.0% for the U.K. plans, and 4.6% for the Canadian plans.

Fair Value of Plan Assets. Pension assets are recorded at fair value, and include primarily fixed i\ ncome and equity securities, derivatives, and alternative investments, which include hedg\ e funds, private equity, and real estate. Fixed income and equity securities may each be combined into commingled fund i\ nvestments. Commingled funds are valued to reflect the pension fund's interest in the fund based on the reported ye\ ar-end net asset value ("NAV"). Alternative investments are valued based on year-end reported NAV, with adjustments as appropriate for lagged reporting of 1 month - 6 months.

Fixed Income - Government and Agency Debt Securities and Corporate Debt Securities. U.S. government and government agency obligations, non-U.S. government and government agency\ obligations, municipal securities, supranational obligations, corporate bonds, bank notes, floating rate no\ tes, and preferred securities are valued based on quotes received from independent pricing services or from dealers who ma\ ke markets in such securities. Pricing services utilize matrix pricing, which considers readily available inputs such as\ the yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, and type, as well as dealer-supplied prices, and generally are categor\ ized as Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. Securities categorized as Level 3 typically are priced by dealers and\ pricing services that use proprietary pricing models which incorporate unobservable inputs. These inputs primarily consist of yield and credit spread assumptions. Fixed Income - Agency and Non-Agency Mortgage and Other Asset-Backed Securities. U.S. and non-U.S.

government agency mortgage and asset-backed securities, non-agency colla\ teralized mortgage obligations, commercial mortgage securities, residential mortgage securities, and other asset-ba\ cked securities are valued based on quotes received from independent pricing services or from dealers who make mark\ ets in such securities. Pricing services utilize matrix pricing, which considers prepayment speed assumptions, attributes\ of the collateral, yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type, as well as dealer-supplied prices, and gene\ rally are categorized as Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. Securities categorized as Level 3 typically are priced by dealers and\ pricing services that use proprietary pricing models which incorporate unobservable input\ s. These inputs primarily consist of prepayment curves, discount rates, default assumptions, and recovery rates. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 111 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 111 NOTE 16. RETIREMENT BENEFITS (Continued) Equities. Equity securities are valued based on quoted prices and are primarily ex\ change-traded. Securities for which official close or last trade pricing on an active exchange is available ar\ e classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. If closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the las\ t quoted bid price or may be valued using the last available price and typically are categorized as Level 2. Level 3 \ securities often are thinly traded or delisted, with unobservable pricing data.

Derivatives. Exchange-traded derivatives for which market quotations are readily avai\ lable are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on th\ e primary market or exchange on which they are traded and are categorized as Level 1. Over-\ the-counter derivatives typically are valued by independent pricing services and categorized as Level 2. Level 3 deriva\ tives typically are priced by dealers and pricing services that use proprietary pricing models which incorporate unobserva\ ble inputs, including extrapolated or model- derived assumptions such as volatilities and yield and credit spread ass\ umptions. Alternative Assets. Hedge funds generally hold liquid and readily priced securities, such as\ public equities in long/ short funds, exchange-traded derivatives in macro/commodity trading advi\ sor funds, and corporate bonds in credit relative value funds. Since hedge funds do not have readily available market quo\ tations, they are valued using the NAV provided by the investment sponsor or third party administrator. Hedge fund assets typically are categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy due to the inherent restrictions on redemptions that may\ affect our ability to sell the investment at its NAV in the near term. Valuations may be lagged 1 month - 3 months. For 2012 and 2011, we made adjustments of $33 million, and $(10) million, respectively, to adjust for hedge fund lagged valuations.

Private equity and real estate investments are less liquid. External in\ vestment managers typically report valuations reflecting initial cost or updated appraisals, which are adjusted for ca\ sh flows, and realized and unrealized gains/losses. Private equity and real estate funds do not have readily available marke\ t quotations, and therefore are valued using the NAV provided by the investment sponsor or third party administrator. These assets typically are categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, due to the inherent restrictions on redemptions that may affect our ability to sell the investment at its NAV in the near term. Valuations may be lagged 1 month - 6 months. The NAV will be adjusted for cash flows (additional investments or contributions, and distributions) through y\ ear-end. We may make further adjustments for any known substantive valuation changes not reflected in the NAV. For 2012 and 2011, we made adjustments of $56 million and $6 million, respectively, to adjust for private equity lagged valuations. For 2012 and 2011, we made adjustments of $24 million and $13 million, respectively, to adjust for real estate lagged valuations.

The Ford Germany defined benefit plan is funded through a group insuranc\ e contract and exists in a pooled structure with other policy holders. The contract value represents the value of the underlying assets held by\ the insurance company (primarily bonds) at the guaranteed rate of return. The adjustment to fair value to recognize contractual returns is a significant unobservable input; therefore the contract is Level 3.

In the fourth quarter of 2010, pursuant to an exchange offer we conducted, about $2 billion and $554 million principal amount of the 2016 Convertible Notes and 2036 Convertible Not\ es, respectively, were exchanged for an aggregate of 274,385,596 shares of Ford Common Stock, $534 million in cash ($215 in cash per $1,000 principal amount and $190 in cash per $1,000 principal amount of 2016 Convertible Notes and 2036 \ Convertible Notes exchanged, respectively) and the applicable accrued and unpaid in\ terest on such 2016 Convertible Notes and 2036 Convertible Notes. As a result of the conversion, we recorded a pre-tax loss of $962 million, net of unamortized discounts, premiums, and fees, in Automotive interest income and other income/(expense), net.

DOE ATVM Incentive Program In September 2009, we entered into a Loan Arrangement and Reimbursement Agreement ("Arrangement Agreement") with the DOE, pursuant to which the DOE agreed to (i) arrange a 13-year multi-draw term loan facility (the "Facility") under the ATVM Program in the aggregate principal amount of up to $5.9 billion, (ii) designate us as a borrower under the ATVM Program and (iii) cause the Federal Financing Bank ("FFB") to enter \ into the Note Purchase Agreement for the purchase of notes to be issued by us evidencing such loans. In August 2012, the Facility was fully drawn with $5.9 billion outstanding after we had drawn the remaining $137 million of available funds. We began repayment in September 2012, and at December 31, 2012 an aggregate of $5.6 billion was outstanding. The proceeds of the ATVM loan have been used to finance certain costs for fuel efficient, advanced technology vehicles. The principal amount of the ATVM loan bears interest at a blended rate based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time each draw was made (with the weighted- average interest rate on all such draws being about 2.3% per annum).

The ATVM loan is repayable in equal quarterly installments of $148 million, which began in September 2012 and will end in June 2022.

Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 125 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 125 NOTE 17. DEBT AND COMMITMENTS (Continued) Asset-Backed DebtFord Credit engages in securitization transactions to fund operations an\ d to maintain liquidity. Ford Credit's securitization transactions are recorded as asset-backed debt and the as\ sociated assets are not de-recognized and continue to be included in our financial statements.

The finance receivables and cash flows related to the net investment in \ operating leases that have been included in securitization transactions are only available for payment of the debt a\ nd other obligations issued or arising in the securitization transactions. They are not available to pay Ford Credit's other obligations or the cla\ ims of its other creditors. Ford Credit does, however, hold the right to the excess cash flows not needed to pay the debt and\ other obligations issued or arising in each of the securitization transactions\ . The debt is the obligation of our consolidated securitization entities and not Ford Credit's legal obligation or that o\ f its other subsidiaries.

The following table shows the assets and liabilities related to our asse\ t-backed debt arrangements that are included in our financial statements for the years ended December 31 (in billions)\ :

See Note 12 for additional information on Financial Services sector VIEs.

(b) Certain debt issued by the VIEs to affiliated companies served as collateral for accessing the ECB open marke\ t operations program. This external funding of $145 million and $246 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively was not reflected as a liability of the VIEs and is refl\ ected as a non-VIE liability above. The finance receivables backing this external funding are reflected in V\ IE finance receivables. Financial Services sector asset-backed debt also included $64 million and $75 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, that is secured by property.

DEBT AND COMMITMENTS (Continued) Credit FacilitiesAt December 31, 2012, Ford Credit and its majority-owned subsidiaries ha\ d $922 million of contractually committed unsecured credit facilities with financial institutions, including FCE B\ ank plc's ("FCE") £440 million (equivalent to $713 million at December 31, 2012) syndicated credit facility (the "FCE Credit Agreement") which matures in 2014. At December 31, 2012, $866 million were available for use. In January 2013, FCE drew £330 million (equivalent to about $535 million) of its syndicated facility. The FCE Credit Agreement contains certain covenants, including an obligation for FCE to maintain its ratio of regulatory capital to risk weighted assets \ at no less than the applicable regulatory minimum, and for the support agreement between FCE and Ford Credit to remain in f\ ull force and effect (and enforced by FCE to ensure that its net worth is maintained at no less than $500 million). In addition to customary payment, representation, bankruptcy, and judgment defaults, the FCE Credit Agreement contains cross-payment and cross-acceleration defaults with respect to other debt. In addition, at December 31, 2012, Ford Credit had $6.3 billion of contractually-committed liquidity facilities provided by banks to support its FCAR program of which $3.3 billion expire in 2013 and $3 billion expire in 2014. Utilization of these facilities is subject to conditions specific to the FCAR program a\ nd Ford Credit having a sufficient amount of eligible retail assets for securitization. The FCAR program must be supported by liquidity facilities equal to at l\ east 100% of its outstanding balance. At December 31, 2012, about $6.3 billion of FCAR's bank liquidity facilities were available to support FCAR’s asset-backed commercial paper, subordinated debt or FCAR's purchase of Ford Credit asset-backed securities. At December 31, 2012, the outstanding commercial paper balance for the FCAR program was $5.8 billion.

Committed Liquidity Programs Ford Credit and its subsidiaries, including FCE, have entered into agree\ ments with a number of bank-sponsored asset-backed commercial paper conduits and other financial institutions.\ Such counterparties are contractually committed, at Ford Credit's option, to purchase from Ford Credit eligible retail or\ wholesale assets or to purchase or make advances under asset-backed securities backed by retail, lease, or wholesale asse\ ts for proceeds of up to $24.3 billion ($12.9 billion retail, $7 billion wholesale, and $4.4 billion lease assets) at December 31, 2012, of which about $4.9 billion are commitments to FCE. These committed liquidity programs have varying maturity dates, with $23.4 billion (of which about $4.2 billion relates to FCE commitments) having maturities within the next twelve m\ onths and the remaining balance having maturities between April 2014 and October 2014. Ford Credit plans to achieve capacity rene\ wals to protect its global funding needs, optimize capacity utilization and maintain sufficient liquidity. Ford Credit's ability to obtain funding under these programs is subject \ to having a sufficient amount of assets eligible for these programs as well as its ability to obtain interest rate hedgin\ g arrangements for certain securitization transactions. Ford Credit's capacity in excess of eligible receivables would protect i\ t against the risk of lower than planned renewal rates. At December 31, 2012, $12.3 billion of these commitments were in use. These programs are free of material adverse change clauses, restrictive financial covenants (for example, d\ ebt-to-equity limitations and minimum net worth requirements), and generally, credit rating triggers that could limit Ford Credit's ability to obtai\ n funding. However, the unused portion of these commitments may be terminated if the performance\ of the underlying assets deteriorates beyond specified levels. Based on Ford Credit's experience and knowledge as se\ rvicer of the related assets, it does not expect any of these programs to be terminated due to such events. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 127 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 127 NOTE 18. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIESIn the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to global m\ arket risks, including the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, certain commodity prices, and interest \ rates. To manage these risks, we enter into various derivatives contracts:

• Foreign currency exchange contracts, including forwards and options, tha\ t are used to manage foreign exchange exposure; • Commodity contracts, including forwards and options, that are used to ma\ nage commodity price risk; • Interest rate contracts including swaps, caps, and floors that are used \ to manage the effects of interest rate fluctuations; and • Cross-currency interest rate swap contracts that are used to manage fore\ ign currency and interest rate exposures on foreign-denominated debt. Our derivatives are over-the-counter customized derivative transactions \ and are not exchange-traded. We review our hedging program, derivative positions, and overall risk management strat\ egy on a regular basis.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedge Accounting. All derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value. We do not net our derivative position by counterparty for purposes of bal\ ance sheet presentation and disclosure. We do, however, consider our net position for determining fair value. We have elected to apply hedge accounting to certain derivatives. Deriva\ tives that are designated in hedging relationships are evaluated for effectiveness using regression analysis at the time they are designated an\ d throughout the hedge period. Some derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting; for others, we ele\ ct not to apply hedge accounting. Regardless, we only enter into transactions that we believe will be high\ ly effective at offsetting the underlying economic risk. Cash Flow Hedges. Our Automotive sector has designated certain forward contracts as cash flow \ hedges of forecasted transactions with exposure to foreign currency exchange risk.\ The effective portion of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges is defe\ rred in Accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) and is recognized in Automotive cost of sales when the hedged item affects earnings. The ineffective portion is reported in Automotive cost of sales in the period of measurement. Our policy is to de-designate cash flow hedges prior to the time forecasted transactions are recognized as asset\ s or liabilities on the balance sheet and report subsequent changes in fair value through Automotive cost of sales. If it becomes probable that the originally-forecasted transaction will not occur, the related amount included in Accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) is reclassified and recognized in earnings. The majority of our cash flow hedges mature in 2 years or less.

Fair Value Hedges. Our Financial Services sector uses derivatives to reduce the risk of changes in the fair value of debt. We have designated certain receive-fixed, pay-float interest rate swaps a\ s fair value hedges of fixed-rate debt. The risk being hedged is the risk of changes in the fair value of the hedged\ debt attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate. If the hedge relationship is deemed to be highly effective, we record the changes in the fair value of the hedged debt related to the risk being hedged in Financial Services debt with the offset in Financial Services other income/ (loss), net. The change in fair value of the related derivative (excluding accrued i\ nterest) also is recorded in Financial Services other income/(loss), net. Net interest settlements and accruals on fair value hedges are exclude\ d from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. We report net interest settlements and accruals on fair value hedges in Interest expense. The cash flows associated with fair value hedges are reported in Net cash provided by/(used in) operating activities on our statement of cash flows.

When a fair value hedge is de-designated, or when the derivative is term\ inated before maturity, the fair value adjustment to the hedged debt continues to be reported as part of the ca\ rrying value of the debt and is amortized over its remaining life.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments. Our Automotive sector reports changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments through Automotive cost of sales. Cash flows associated with non- designated or de-designated derivatives are reported in Net cash provided by/(used in) investing activities in our statements of cash flows.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES (Continued) Our Financial Services sector reports net interest settlements and accru\ als and changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps not designated as hedging instruments in Financial Services other income/(loss) net. Foreign currency revaluation on accrued interest along with gains and losses on foreign e\ xchange contracts and cross currency interest rate swaps are reported in Financial Services Operating and other expenses . Cash flows associated with non-designated or de-designated derivatives are reported in Net cash provided by/(used in) investing activities in our statements of cash flows.

Net Investment Hedges. We have used foreign currency exchange derivatives to hedge the net asset\ s of certain foreign entities to offset the translation and economic exposures related to our investment in\ these entities. The effective portion of changes in the value of designated instruments (i.e., the sp\ ot-to-spot) is included in Accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) as a foreign currency translation adjustment until the hedged investmen\ t is sold or liquidated. When the investment is sold or liquidated, the hedge gains \ and losses previously reported in Accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) are recognized in Automotive interest income and other income/(loss), net as part of the gain or loss on sale. Presently, we have had no derivative instruments in an active net investment hedg\ ing relationship. Normal Purchases and Normal Sales Classification. We have elected to apply the normal purchases and normal sales classification for physical supply contracts that are entered into\ for the purpose of procuring commodities to be used in production over a reasonable period in the normal course of our busin\ ess.

The derivative features included in the FUEL Notes were extinguished as a result of the mandatory exchange of the FUEL Notes to unsecured notes in the second quarter of 2012.

The notional amounts of the derivative financial instruments do not repr\ esent amounts exchanged by the parties and, therefore, are not a direct measure of our exposure to the financial ris\ ks described above. Notional amounts are presented on a gross basis with no netting of offsetting exposure positions. The amounts exchanged are calculated by reference to the notional amounts and by other terms of the derivatives,\ such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, or commodity volumes and prices.

On our consolidated balance sheet, derivative assets are reported in Other assets for Automotive and Financial Services sectors, and derivative liabilities are reported in Payables for our Automotive sector and in Accrued liabilities and deferred revenue for our Financial Services sector. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 131 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 131 NOTE 18. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES (Continued) Counterparty Risk and Collateral The use of derivatives exposes us to the risk that a counterparty may de\ fault on a derivative contract. We establish exposure limits for each counterparty to minimize this risk and provide \ counterparty diversification. Substantially all of our derivative exposures are with counterparties that have an investment gra\ de rating. The aggregate fair value of our derivative instruments in asset positions on December 31, 2012 was $1.5 billion, representing the maximum loss that we would recognize at that date if all counterparties failed to perform as \ contracted. We enter into master agreements with counterparties that generally allow for netting of certain exposures; th\ erefore, the actual loss we would recognize if all counterparties failed to perform as contracted would be lower.

We include an adjustment for non-performance risk in the measurement of f\ air value of derivative instruments. Our adjustment for non-performance risk is relative to a measure based on an\ unadjusted inter-bank deposit rate (e.g., LIBOR). For our Automotive sector, at December 31, 2012 and 2011, our adjustment decreased derivative assets by $1 million and $3 million, respectively, and decreased derivative liabilities by $1 million and $10 million, respectively. For our Financial Services sector, at December 31, 2012 and 2011, our adjustment decreased derivative assets by $14 million and $54 million, respectively, and decreased derivative liabilities by $5 million and $7 million, respectively. See Note 4 for more detail on valuation methodologies.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION At December 31, 2012, a variety of share-based compensation grants and awards were outstandi\ ng for employees (including officers). All share-based compensation plans are approved by the shareholders.

We have share-based compensation outstanding under two Long-Term Incentive Plans ("LTIP"): the 1998 LTIP and the 2008 LTIP. No further grants may be made under the 1998 LTIP. All outstanding share-based compensation under the 1998 LTIP continues to be governed by the terms and conditions of the existing ag\ reements for those grants. Grants may continue to be made under the 2008 LTIP through April 2018. Under the 2008 LTIP, the number of shares of Common Stock that may be granted as share-based compensation in any year\ is limited to 2% of our issued and outstanding Common Stock as of December 31 of the prior calendar year. Any unused portion is available for later years. The limit may be increased up to 3% in any year, with a corresponding reduction in shares available for grants in future years. At December 31, 2012 the number of unused shares carried forward was 157 million shares. We primarily issue two types of share-based compensation awards, restrict\ ed stock units ("RSUs") and stock options.

For more information visit www.annualreport.ford.com 134 Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 134 NOTE 22. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION (Continued)We grant performance-based and time-based RSUs to our employees. RSUs pr\ ovide the recipients with the right to shares of Common Stock after a restriction period. We measure the fair value using the closing price of our Common Stock on grant date. Expenses associated with RSUs are recorded in Selling, administrative, and other expense.

Time-based RSUs generally have a graded vesting feature whereby one-third\ of each grant of RSUs vests after the first anniversary of the grant date, one-third after the second annivers\ ary, and one-third after the third anniversary. Expense is recognized using the graded vesting method and is based on th\ e fair value at grant date.

Performance-based RSUs have a performance period (usually one year) followed by a restriction period (usually two years). Compensation expense for performance-based RSUs is recognized \ when it is probable and estimable as measured against the performance metrics. Expense is recognized over the performance and restriction periods, if a\ ny, and is based on the fair value at grant date.

We also grant stock options to our employees. We measure the fair value of our stock options using the Black- Scholes option-pricing model, using historical volatility and our determ\ ination of the expected term. The expected term of stock options is the time period that the stock options are expected to \ be outstanding. Historical data are used to estimate option exercise behaviors and employee termination experience.

Stock options generally have a vesting feature whereby one-third of each\ grant of stock options are exercisable after the first anniversary of the grant date, one-third after the second anni\ versary, and one-third after the third anniversary. Stock options expire 10 years from the grant date and are expensed in Selling, administrative, and other expenses using a three-year graded vesting methodology.

We issue new shares of Common Stock upon vesting of RSUs and upon exercis\ e of stock options.

We expect 11.3 million stock options (after forfeitures), with a weighted-average exercise p\ rice of $13.08 and average remaining term of 9 years, to vest in the future.

The intrinsic value for stock options is measured by comparing the awarded option price to the closing stock price at December 31.

Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 137 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 137 NOTE 23. EMPLOYEE SEPARATION ACTIONSAs part of our plan to realign our vehicle assembly capacity to operate \ profitably at the current demand and changing model mix, we have implemented a number of different employee separation plans. The accounting for employee separation plans is dependent on the specific design of the plans.

Under certain labor agreements, we are required to pay transitional bene\ fits to our employees who are idled. For employees who will be temporarily idled, we expense the benefits on an a\ s-incurred basis. For employees who will be permanently idled, we expense all of the future benefit payments in the \ period when it is probable that the employees will be permanently idled. Our reserve balance for these future benefit paym\ ents to permanently idled employees takes into account several factors: the demographics of the population at each affected facility, redeployment alternatives, estimate of benefits to be paid, and recent experience relative to voluntary rede\ ployments.

We also incur payments to employees for separation actions. The costs of voluntary employee separation actions are recorded at the time of employee acceptance, unless the acceptance requi\ res explicit approval by the Company. The costs of involuntary separation programs are accrued when management has\ approved the program and the affected employees are identified.

Automotive Sector Transitional Benefits Our collective bargaining agreements with the UAW and the CAW require us to pay a portion of wages and benefits for a specified period of time to employees who are considered permanent\ ly idled and who meet certain conditions. We have established a reserve for employee benefits that we expect to provi\ de under our collective bargaining agreements. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, this reserve was $66 million and $153 million, respectively. The balance in the reserve primarily relates to the closure of our St. Thomas Assembly Plant in Canada, which was announced in the fourth quarter of 2009.

Separation Actions The following table shows pre-tax charges for hourly and salaried employ\ ee separation actions, which are recorded in Automotive cost of sales and Selling, administrative, and other expenses for the years ended December 31 (in millions):

Financial Services Sector Separation Actions We recorded in Selling, administrative, and other expenses pre-tax charges of $7 million, $32 million, and $33 million for 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, for employee separation actions. These charges exclude costs for pension and OPEB.

INCOME TAXESIn accordance with GAAP, we have elected to recognize accrued interest related to unrecognized \ tax benefits and tax- related penalties in the Provision for/(Benefit from) income taxes on our consolidated income statement.

Valuation of Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the future t\ ax consequences attributable to temporary differences that exist between the financial statement carrying value of as\ sets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards on a taxing juris\ diction basis. We measure deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will apply in the years in \ which we expect the temporary differences to be recovered or paid.

Our accounting for deferred tax consequences represents our best estimat\ e of the likely future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax retu\ rns and their future probability. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we consider both positive and negative e\ vidence related to the likelihood of realization of the deferred tax assets. If, based on the weight of available evidence,\ it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized, we record a valuation allowance.

Components of Income Taxes Components of income taxes excluding discontinued operations, cumulative\ effects of changes in accounting principles, other comprehensive income, and equity in net results of affiliated companies accounted for after-tax, are as follows:

INCOME TAXES (Continued)We historically have provided deferred taxes for the presumed repatriatio\ n to the United States of earnings from nearly all non-U.S. subsidiaries. During 2011, we determined that $6.9 billion of these non-U.S. subsidiaries' undistributed earnings are now indefinitely reinvested outside the United States. As management has determined that the earnings of these subsidiaries are not required as a source of funding for U.S. oper\ ations, such earnings are not planned to be distributed to the United States in the foreseeable future. As a result of this change in assertion, deferred tax liabilities related to undistributed foreign earnings decreased by $63 million.

As of December 31, 2012, $6.6 billion of non-U.S. earnings are considered indefinitely reinvested in operatio\ ns outside the United States, for which deferred taxes have not been provid\ ed. These earnings have been subject to significant non-U.S. taxes; repatriation in their entirety would result \ in a residual U.S. tax liability of about $600 million. At the end of 2011, our U.S. operations had returned to a position of cumulative profits \ for the most recent 3-year period. We concluded that this record of cumulative profitability in recent years\ , our ten consecutive quarters of pre-tax operating profits, our successful completion of labor negotiations with \ the UAW, and our business plan showing continued profitability provided assurance that our future tax benefits more likel\ y than not would be realized. Accordingly, at year- end 2011, we released almost all of our valuation allowance against net deferre\ d tax assets for entities in the United States, Canada, and Spain.

At December 31, 2012, we have retained a valuation allowance against app\ roximately $500 million in North America related to various state and local operating loss carryforwards that are\ subject to restrictive rules for future utilization, and a valuation allowance totaling $1.4 billion primarily against deferred tax assets for our South American operations.

A substantial portion of these losses begin to expire in 2029; the remain\ ing losses will begin to expire in 2018. Tax credits available to offset future tax liabilities are $5 billion. A substantial portion of these credits have a remaining carryforward period of 10 years or more. Tax benefits of operating loss and tax credit carryforwards are evaluated on an ongoing basis, including a review of historical and proj\ ected future operating results, the eligible carryforward period, and other circumstances.

Examinations by tax authorities have been completed through 2004 in Germ\ any, and through 2007 in Canada, the United States, and the United Kingdom. Although examinations have been completed in these jurisdictions, limite\ d transfer pricing disputes exist for years dating back to 1996.

We recorded in our consolidated income statement approximately $9 million, $77 million, and $45 million in tax- related interest income for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had recorded a net payable of $120 million and $171 million, respectively, for tax-related interest. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 141 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 141 NOTE 25. DISPOSITIONS AND OTHER CHANGES IN INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATESWe classify assets and liabilities as held for sale ("disposal group") \ when management, having the authority to approve the action, commits to a plan to sell the disposal group, the sa\ le is probable within one year, and the disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition. We also consider whether an active program to locate a buyer has been initiated, whether the disposal group is marketed activel\ y for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value, and whether actions required to complete the \ plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. We classify a disposal group as a discontinued operation when the criteria to be classified as held for sale have been \ met and we will not have any significant involvement with the disposal group after the sale.

When we classify a disposal group as held for sale, we test for impairme\ nt. An impairment charge is recognized when the carrying value of the disposal group exceeds the estimated fair valu\ e, less transaction costs.

We aggregate the assets and liabilities of all held-for-sale disposal gro\ ups on the balance sheet for the period in which the disposal group is held for sale. To provide comparative balance sheets, we also aggregate the assets and liabilities for significant held-for-sale disposal groups on the prior-p\ eriod balance sheet.

Automotive Sector Dispositions Automotive Components Holdings, LLC ("ACH"). On June 30, 2012, ACH completed the sale of its automotive lighting business located at its Ohio facilities to Ventra Sandusky, a Flex-N-Gate group affiliate . Ventra Sandusky will continue to supply Ford with automotive lighting components and service \ parts from the Sandusky and Bellevue facilities. As a result of this transaction, we recognized a second quarter pre-tax \ loss of $77 million reported in Automotive interest income and other income/(loss), net . Additionally, we assumed a contractual obligation of $15 million associated with the pricing of products to be purchased over the four and one-half-year term of the related purchase and supply agreement with Ventra Sandusky.

On June 1, 2012, ACH completed the sale of its automotive interior trim components busine\ ss located at its Saline, Michigan plant to Faurecia . Faurecia will continue to supply Ford with interior trim components fr\ om the Saline facility as well as other Faurecia facilities. As a result of this transaction, we recognized a second quarter pre-tax \ loss of $96 million reported in Automotive interest income and other income/(loss), net . Additionally, we assumed contractual obligations of $182 million associated with the pricing of products to be purchased over the six-year terms of the related purchase and supply agreements with Faurecia and an affiliate of Faurecia.

Ford Russia. During the second quarter of 2011, we signed an agreement with Sollers OJSC ("Sollers") establishing FordSollers, a 50/50 joint venture in Russia. On October 1, 2011, we contributed our wholly-owned operations in Russia, consisting primarily of a manufacturing plant near St. Petersburg and ac\ cess to our Russian dealership network, to the joint venture. Additionally, we entered into an agreement with FordSollers for the granting of an e\ xclusive right to manufacture, assemble, and distribute certain Ford-brand vehicles in Rus\ sia through the licensing of certain trademarks and intellectual property rights. Sollers contributed two production fa\ cilities. The joint venture is engaged in the manufacturing and distribution of a range of Ford passenger cars and lig\ ht commercial vehicles in Russia. As part of our ongoing relationship with FordSollers, we supply parts and other vehicle\ components to the joint venture and receive a royalty of 5% of the joint venture's net sales revenue.

Upon contribution of our wholly-owned operations in Russia to the joint \ venture in exchange for a 50% equity interest, we deconsolidated the assets and liabilities, recorded an equity method \ investment in FordSollers at its fair value of $364 million, and recognized a pre-tax gain of $178 million attributable to the remeasurement to fair value of the retained investment. In addition, we received cash proceeds of $174 million, recorded a note receivable in the amount of $133 million, recorded a payable of $27 million, and recognized loss in accumulated foreign currency adjustment of $57 million. The total pre-tax gain of $401 million is reported in Automotive interest income and other income/(expense), net.

DISPOSITIONS AND OTHER CHANGES IN INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES (Continued)We measured the fair value of our equity interest using the income approa\ ch. We used cash flows that were developed jointly by Ford and Sollers. The significant assumptions used in this approach included:

• Projected growth in the Russian automobile market; • Reduced import duties on certain auto parts; and • A discount rate of 16% based on an appropriate weighted average cost of c\ apital, adjusted for perceived business risks related to regulatory concerns, foreign exchange volatility, execution risk, and risk associated with the Russian automotive industry.

We, along with Sollers, pledged 100% of the shares in the joint venture to the State Corporation Bank fo\ r Development and Foreign Economic Operations - Vnesheconombank ("VEB") as collatera\ l securing the joint venture's debt.

Other Changes in Investments in Affiliates AAI. AAI is a 50/50 joint venture between Ford and Mazda that operates an aut\ omobile assembly plant in Flat Rock, Michigan. In September 2011, we signed a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") with Mazda to chang\ e our future business relationship with respect to AAI. Pursuant to the terms of the MOU, in the third quarter of 2012 the\ assembly plant ceased production of Mazda vehicles and on September 1, 2012 we acquired full management control of AAI.

In exchange, beginning on September 1, 2015, for a three year period, we have granted to Mazda a put option to sell, and received a call option to purchase from Mazda, the 50% equity interest in AAI that is held by Mazda ("the Option"). The Option is exercisable at a price of $338 million as determined by a formula based on AAI's final December 31, 2012 closing balance sheet.

The change in management control resulted in a business combination on S\ eptember 1, 2012 and we consolidated AAI under the acquisition method of accounting. We measured the fair value of AAI using the income approach and used cash flows that reflect our approved business plan for AAI. We assumed a discount rate of 10% based on an appropriate weighted average cost of capital adjusted for perceived business risks. \ The fair value of 100% of AAI's identifiable net assets was $868 million, as shown below (in millions): September 1, 2012 Assets Cash and cash equivalents $191 Marketable securities 321 Receivables 202 Inventories 99 Property, plant and equipment 487 Deferred tax assets 119 Total assets of AAI (a) $ 1,419 Liabilities Trade payables $150 Other payables 185 Accrued liabilities 41 Debt payable to Ford 51 Deferred tax liabilities 124 Total liabilities of AAI (a) $551 ___________ (a) As of September 1, 2012, intercompany assets of $121 million and intercompany liabilities of $306 million have been eliminated in both consolidated and sector balance sheets. As part of the business combination, the Option was recorded as a redeem\ able noncontrolling interest in the mezzanine section of our balance sheet at the then fair value of $319 million (see Note 19). This represents the discounted cash flow of the option price using Ford's incremental borrow\ ing rate of 2.75%.

As a result, the fair value attributable to our investment in AAI at September 1, 2012 was $549 million. The excess of this fair value over the carrying value of our previously recorded 50% unconsolidated equity interest resulted in a third quarter 2012 pre-tax gain of $155 million in Automotive interest income and other income/(loss), net.

DISPOSITIONS AND OTHER CHANGES IN INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES (Continued) CFMA. Our Chinese joint venture CFMA, whose members include Chongqing Chang\ an Automobile Co., Ltd.

("Changan") (50% partner), Mazda (15% partner) and us (35% partner), produces and distributes in China an expanding variety of Ford passenger car models, as well as Mazda and Volvo models. On November 30, 2012, CFMA transferred its Nanjing operations to Changan Mazda Automobile Ltd. ("CMA"), and CFMA was renamed CAF. Immediately after the split, Ford and Mazda fully exchanged their respective interest in the t\ wo joint ventures. As a result, Ford now owns a 50% interest in CAF and Mazda owns a 50% interest in CMA; Changan remains a 50% partner in each joint venture. CMA will continue to assemble vehicles for CAF as a contract manufacturer u\ ntil 2014.

Upon the exchange, we de-recognized the historical carrying value of our\ equity investment in CMA of $115 million, increased our equity investment in CAF by the fair value of the interest\ received of $740 million, and recognized a fourth quarter 2012 pre-tax gain of $625 million in Automotive interest income and other income/(expense), net . Financial Services Sector Dispositions Asia Pacific Markets. In 2011, Ford Credit recorded foreign currency translation adjustments of $60 million (including $72 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2011), related to the strategic decision to exit retail and wholesale fina\ ncing in certain Asia Pacific markets. These adjustments decreased Accumulated other comprehensive income (foreign currency translation) and increased pre-tax income, which was recorded to Financial Services other income/loss, net.

CAPITAL STOCK AND AMOUNTS PER SHAREAll general voting power is vested in the holders of Common Stock and Cl\ ass B Stock. Holders of our Common Stock have 60% of the general voting power and holders of our Class B Stock are entitl\ ed to such number of votes per share as will give them the remaining 40%. Shares of Common Stock and Class B Stock share equally in dividend\ s when and as paid, with stock dividends payable in shares of stock of the class held.\ If liquidated, each share of Common Stock will be entitled to the first \ $0.50 available for distribution to holders of Common Stock and Class B Stock, each share of Class B Stock will be enti\ tled to the next $1.00 so available, each share of Common Stock will be entitled to the next $0.50 so available and each share of Common and Class B Stock will be entitled to an equal amount thereafter.

We present both basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") amounts in\ our financial reporting. EPS is computed independently each quarter for income from continuing operations, income\ from discontinued operations, and net income; as a result, the sum of per-share amounts from continuing operations and\ discontinued operations may not equal the total per-share amount for net earnings. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is c\ omputed by dividing income available to Common and Class B Stock holders by the weighted-average number of Commo\ n and Class B Stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the maximum potential dilution that could \ occur if all of our equity-linked securities and other share-based compensation, including stock options, warrants, and rights \ under our convertible notes, were exercised. Potential dilutive shares are excluded from the calculation \ if they have an anti-dilutive effect in the period.

Warrants As part of the transfer of assets to the UAW VEBA Trust on December 31, 2009, we issued warrants to purchase 362,391,305 shares of Ford Common Stock at an exercise price of $9.20 per share, which was subsequently adjusted to $9.01 per share. On April 6, 2010, the UAW VEBA Trust sold all such warrants to parties unrelated to us. In connection with the sale, the terms of the warrants were modified to provide for, among other things, net share settlement as the only permitted settlement method thereby eliminating full physical settlement\ as an option, and elimination of certain of the transfer restrictions applicable to the underlying stock. We received no proceeds from the offering.

The warrants expired by their terms on January 1, 2013. By the deadline\ for exercise of December 31, 2012, 362 million warrants were exercised on a net share settlement basis. This resulted in the issuance of 106 million shares of Common Stock, of which 72 million shares were issued on January 8, 2013 in settlement of exercises that t\ ook place during the last four trading days of 2012. Because we were obligated in \ 2012 to issue the shares, all 106 million shares issued for warrant exercises are reflected on our consolidated and secto\ r balance sheets as being outstanding at December 31, 2012. No warrants are presently outstanding.

Dividend Declaration On January 10, 2013, our Board of Directors declared a first quarter 201\ 3 dividend on our Common and Class B Stock of $0.10 per share payable on March 1, 2013 to stockholders of rec\ ord on January 30, 2013.

Effect of Dividends on Convertible Notes As a result of dividends totaling $0.20 per share ($0.05 per share in each quarter of 2012) paid on our Commo\ n Stock, the conversion rates for our outstanding convertible notes (see \ Note 17) have been adjusted pursuant to their terms as follows: Conversion Rate - Shares of Ford Common Stock for Each $1,000 Principal Amount After Adjustment After Adjustment In Effect Effective Effective Security At January 1, 2012 August 1, 2012 November 9, 2012 4.25% Senior Convertible Notes Due November 15, 2016 107.5269 shares109.3202 shares109.8554 shares After Adjustment After Adjustment In Effect Effective Effective At January 1, 2012 August 6, 2012 December 15, 2012 4.25% Senior Convertible Notes Due December 15, 2036 108.6957 shares110.5085 shares111.0495 shares Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 14 5 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 145 NOTE 26.

SEGMENT INFORMATIONOur operating activity consists of two operating sectors, Automotive and Financial Services. Segment selection is based on the organizational structure we use to evaluate performance and\ make decisions on resource allocation, as well as availability and materiality of separate financial results consistent\ with that structure.

Automotive Sector Our Automotive sector is divided into four segments: 1) Ford North America, 2) Ford South America, 3) Ford Europe, and 4) Ford Asia Pacific Africa. Included in each segment, described below, are the associated costs to develop, manufacture, distribute, and service vehicles and parts.

Ford North America segment primarily includes the sale of Ford- and Lincoln-brand v\ ehicles and related service parts and accessories in North America (the United States, Canada, and Mexico). Ford South America segment primarily includes the sale of Ford-brand vehicles and r\ elated service parts and accessories in South America.

Ford Europe segment primarily includes the sale of Ford-brand vehicles, \ components, and related service parts and accessories in Europe, Turkey, and Russia.

Ford Asia Pacific Africa segment primarily includes the sale of Ford-brand vehicles and re\ lated service parts and accessories in the Asia Pacific region and South Africa. Revenue from Ford-brand and Jiangling Motors Corporation-brand vehicles \ produced and distributed by our unconsolidated affiliates are not included in our revenue.

In August 2010 we completed the sale of Volvo. Results for Volvo are reported as special items in 2010.

The Other Automotive component of the Automotive sector consists primarily of centrally-managed net interest expense and related fair market value adjustments.

Transactions among Automotive segments generally are presented on a "where-sold," absolute-\ cost basis, which reflects the profit/(loss) on the sale within the segment making the u\ ltimate sale to an external entity. This presentation generally eliminates the effect of legal entity transfer prices within the Automotive sector for vehicles, components, and product engineering. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 14 9 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 149 NOTE 28. SEGMENT INFORMATION (Continued) Financial Services Sector The Financial Services sector includes the following segments: 1) Ford \ Credit, and 2) Other Financial Services. Ford Credit provides vehicle-related financing, leasing, and insurance. Other Financial Services includes a variety of businesses including holding companies, real estate, and the financing a\ nd leasing of some Volvo vehicles in Europe.

Special Items Special items are presented as a separate reconciling item to reconcile \ segment results to consolidated results of the Company. These special items include (i) personnel and dealer-related items ste\ mming from our efforts to match production capacity and cost structure to market demand and changing mod\ el mix, and (ii) certain infrequent significant items that we generally do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing \ operating activities. This presentation reflects the fact that management excludes these items from its review of the results\ of the operating segments for purposes of measuring segment profitability and allocating resources.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIESCommitments and contingencies consist primarily of guarantees and indemn\ ifications, litigation and claims, and warranty.

Guarantees are recorded at fair value at the inception of the guarantee.\ Litigation and claims are accrued when losses are deemed probable and reasonably estimable.

Estimated warranty costs and additional service actions are accrued for \ at the time the vehicle is sold to a dealer, including costs for basic warranty coverage on vehicles sold, product re\ calls, and other customer service actions. Fees or premiums for the issuance of extended service plans are recognized in in\ come over the contract period in proportion to the costs expected to be incurred in performing services under the contr\ act.

Guarantees At December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the following guarantees and indemnifications were issued and outstanding:

Guarantees related to affiliates and third parties. We guarantee debt and lease obligations of certain joint ventures, as well as certain financial obligations of outside third parties, inclu\ ding suppliers, to support our business and economic growth. Expiration dates vary through 2019, and guarantees will termina\ te on payment and/or cancellation of the obligation. A payment by us would be triggered by failure of the joint venture or oth\ er third party to fulfill its obligation covered by the guarantee. In some circumstances, we are entitled to rec\ over from the third party amounts paid by us under the guarantee. However, our ability to enforce these rights is sometimes stayed until the guar\ anteed party is paid in full, and may be limited in the event of insolvency of the third party o\ r other circumstances. The maximum potential payments under guarantees and the carrying value of recorded liabilities\ related to guarantees were as follows (in millions):

December 31, 2012 December 31, 2011 Maximum potential payments $409 $ 444 Carrying value of recorded liabilities related to guarantees 1731 We regularly review our performance risk under these guarantees, which ha\ s resulted in no changes to our initial valuations. Indemnifications. In the ordinary course of business, we execute contracts involving ind\ emnifications standard in the industry and indemnifications specific to a transaction, such as the sal\ e of a business. These indemnifications might include and are not limited to claims relating to any of the following: \ environmental, tax, and shareholder matters; intellectual property rights; power generation contracts; governmental r\ egulations and employment-related matters; dealers, supplier, and other commercial contractual relationships; and financial matters,\ such as securitizations. Performance under these indemnities generally would be triggered by a br\ each of terms of the contract or by a third-party claim. We also are party to numerous indemnifications which do not limit potenti\ al payment; therefore, we are unable to estimate a maximum amount of potential future payments that could result\ from claims made under these indemnities.

Litigation and Claims Various legal actions, proceedings, and claims (generally, "matters") are pending or may be instituted or asserted against us. These include but are not limited to matters arising out of alleged defe\ cts in our products; product warranties; governmental regulations relating to safety, emissions, and fuel economy or other matters; government incentives; t\ ax matters; alleged illegal acts resulting in fines or penalties; financial\ services; employment-related matters; dealer, supplier, and other contractual relationships; intellectual property rights; envir\ onmental matters; shareholder or investor matters; and financial reporting matters. Certain of the pending legal actions a\ re, or purport to be, class actions. Some of the matters involve or may involve claims for compensatory, punitive, or antitrust or other treble damages in very large amounts, or demands for recall campaigns, environmental remediation prog\ rams, sanctions, loss of government incentives, assessments, or other relief, which, if granted, would requi\ re very large expenditures.

The extent of our financial exposure to these matters is difficult to estimate. Many matters do not specify a dollar amount for damages, and many others specify only a jurisdictional minimu\ m. To the extent an amount is asserted, our historical experience suggests that in most instances the amount asserte\ d is not a reliable indicator of the ultimate outcome. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 155 FORD MOTOR COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 155 NOTE 31. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)In evaluating for accrual and disclosure purposes matters filed against \ us, we take into consideration factors such as our historical experience with matters of a similar nature, the specific\ facts and circumstances asserted, the likelihood of our prevailing, and the severity of any potential loss. We reevaluate and update our accruals as matters progress over time. For the majority of matters, which generally arise out of alleged defect\ s in our products, we establish an accrual based on our extensive historical experience with similar matters, and we do n\ ot believe that there is a reasonably possible outcome materially in excess of our accrual. For the remaining matters, where our historical experience with similar \ matters is of more limited value (i.e., "non- pattern matters"), we evaluate matters primarily based on the individua\ l facts and circumstances. For non-pattern matters, we evaluate whether there is a reasonable possibility of a mate\ rial loss in excess of any accrual that can be estimated. Our estimate of reasonably possible loss in excess of our ac\ cruals for all material matters currently reflects non-U.S. indirect tax matters, for which we estimate this aggregate risk\ to be a range of up to about $2.3 billion. As noted, the litigation process is subject to many uncertainties, and t\ he outcome of individual litigated matters is not predictable with assurance. Our assessments are based on our knowledge \ and experience, but the ultimate outcome of any matter could require payment substantially in excess of the amount t\ hat we have accrued and/or disclosed.

Warranty Included in warranty cost accruals are the costs for basic warranty cove\ rages and field service actions (i.e., product recalls and owner notification programs) on products sold. These costs are estimates based primarily on historical warranty claim experience. Warranty accruals accounted for in Accrued liabilities and deferred revenue for the years ended December 31 were as follows (in millions):

20122011 Beginning balance $3,915 $ 3,855 Payments made during the period (2,254 ) (2,799 ) Changes in accrual related to warranties issued during the period 1,885 2,215 Changes in accrual related to pre-existing warranties 49690 Foreign currency translation and other 61(46 ) Ending balance $3,656 $ 3,915 Excluded from the table above are costs accrued for customer satisfactio\ n actions.

Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 157 157 Employment DataThe approximate number of individuals employed by us and entities that w\ e consolidated as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 was as follows (in thousands):

20122011 Automotive Ford North America 8075 Ford South America 1716 Ford Europe 4647 Ford Asia Pacific Africa 2219 Financial Services Ford Credit 6 7 Total 171 164 The year-over-year increase in employment primarily reflects increases i\ n North America and Asia Pacific Africa to support increased production, partially offset by the initiation of personnel-reduction programs in Europe.

Substantially all of the hourly employees in our Automotive operations are represented by unions and covered by collective bargaining agreements. In the United States, approximately 9\ 9% of these unionized hourly employees in our Automotive sector are represented by the International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America ("UAW" or "United Auto Workers"). Approximately two percent of our U.S. salaried employees are represented by unions. Most hourly employees and many non-management sa\ laried employees of our subsidiaries outside of the United States also are represented by unions.

In 2011, we entered into a four-year collective bargaining agreement with the \ UAW. The agreement covers approximately 41,000 employees, and maintains our progress on improving \ competitiveness in the United States. Excluding profit-sharing, compensation-related terms - including lump-su\ m payments (in lieu of general wage increases and cost of living increases) and continuation of an entry-level wage s\ tructure - are expected to increase U.S. hourly labor costs by less than 1% annually over the four-year contract period. We also expect this increase will be more than offset by more flexible work rules that will allow us to increase manufacturing\ utilization and efficiency.

The Company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of fi\ nancial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted a\ ccounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial rep\ orting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may \ become inadequate because of changes in conditions or because the degree of com\ pliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, incl\ uding our CEO and CFO, we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of Decem\ ber 31, 2012. The assessment was based on criteria established in the framework Internal Control - Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management concluded that\ our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2012.

The effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting a\ s of December 31, 2012 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in its rep\ ort included herein. Ford Motor Company | 2012 Annual Report 159 159 New York Stock Exchange Required DisclosuresOn June 1, 2012, Ford's Chief Executive Officer certified that he was not aware of any violation by the Company of\ the New York Stock Exchange Corporate Governance listing standards, other than ha\ s been notified to the Exchange pursuant to Section 303A.12(b), of which there was none.
