PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
General
Toyota Motor Credit Corporation ("TMCC") iswas incorporated in California in 1982
as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Toyota Motor Sales, USA, Inc. ("TMS") and
was incorporated in California in 1982 and
commenced operations in 1983. TMS is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of
Toyota Motor Corporation ("TMC"). On October 1, 2000, ownership of TMCC was
transferred from TMS to Toyota Financial Services Americas Corporation
("TFSA"), a holding company wholly-owned by Toyota Financial Services
Corporation ("TFSC"). TFSC, in turn, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of TMC.
TFSC was incorporated in July 2000 and is headquartered in Nagoya, Japan. The
purpose of TFSC is to control and manage Toyota's finance operations worldwide.
TMCC provides retail leasing, retail and wholesale financing, retail leasing and certain other
financial products and services to authorized Toyota and Lexus vehicle dealers,
and Toyota industrial equipmentto a lesser extent other domestic and import franchised dealers and their
customers in the United States (excluding Hawaii)and the Commonwealth of
Puerto Rico. Additionally, commencing in fiscal year 2003, TMCC will also
provide retail and wholesale financing to authorized Toyota vehicle dealers and
their customers in Mexico and Venezuela.
TMCC also provides retail, lease and wholesale financing to industrial and
other equipment dealers throughout the United States (excluding Hawaii) and
Puerto Rico. Financing is offered for various industrial and commercial
products such as forklifts, light and medium-duty trucks and electric
vehicles. Assets and liabilities related to transactions with industrial and
other equipment dealers are combined with the vehicle related business results
and are included in the appropriate financial data and financial statement
line items in the Consolidated Financial Statements as shown in Items 1,6 and
8 of this Form 10-K.
TMCC has foureight wholly-owned subsidiaries, one of which is engaged in the
insurance business, onetwo limited purpose subsidiarysubsidiaries formed primarily to
acquire and securitize retail finance receivables (one of which is a limited
liability company), one limited purpose subsidiary formed primarily to acquire
and securitize lease finance receivables, and one subsidiary which provides retail
and wholesale financing and certain other financial services to authorized
Toyota and Lexus vehicle dealers and their customers in the Commonwealth of
Puerto Rico.Rico, two subsidiaries which will provide retail and wholesale financing
in Mexico, and one subsidiary which will provide retail and wholesale financing
in Venezuela. TMCC does business as Toyota Motor Credit Corporation and is
marketed under the brands of Toyota Financial Services ("TFS") and Lexus
Financial Services and markets products
under the service mark "Toyota Financial Services"("LFS"). TMCC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries are
collectively referred to as the "Company". TMCC also holds minority interests
in two subsidiaries of TFSC, Toyota Credit Argentina S.A. ("TCA") and Banco
Toyota Do Brasil ("BTB").
TCA provides retail and wholesale financing to authorized Toyota vehicle
dealers and their customers in Argentina. As of
December 13, 1999, TMCC owns a 33% interest in TCA. In
February 2002, the Argentine government established measures to re-denominate
the entire Argentine economy into pesos and has permitted the peso to float
freely against other global currencies. This re-denomination policy adversely
affected TCA's financial condition and its ability to fully satisfy its
offshore dollar loans. Consequently, in the third quarter of fiscal 2002, TMCC
included a charge against income of $31 million to write-off its $5 million
investment in TCA and to establish a reserve of $26 million relating to TMCC's
$40 million guaranty of TCA's offshore outstanding debt. Prior to the write-
off of the TCA investment, TMCC's investment in TCA was accounted for using the
equity method. TMCC will continue to monitor the situation in Argentina.
Banco Toyota do Brasil ("BTB") provides retail and lease financing to
authorized Toyota vehicle dealers and their customers in Brazil. TMCC's 15%
investment in BTB is owned 15% by TMCC. The
remaining interests in TCA and BTB are owned byaccounted for using the cost method.

Toyota Motor Corporation
("TMC"), the ultimate parent of TMCC and TMS.Sales
The Company's earnings are primarily impacted by the level of average earning
assets, comprised primarily of investments in finance receivables and operating
leases, andearning asset yields as well as outstanding borrowings and the cost of
funds.related
borrowing cost. The Company's business is substantially dependent upon the
sale of Toyota and Lexus vehicles in the United States. For the year ended
March 31, 2002, TMS sold approximately 1,673,000 automobiles and light trucks
in the United States (excluding Hawaii), of which approximately 896,000 were
manufactured in the United States; TMS exported approximately 38,000
automobiles. TMS' sales represented approximately 30% of TMC's worldwide unit
sales volume for the year ended March 31, 2002. For the year ended March 31,
2002, the six months ended March 31, 2001 and the fiscal years ended September
30, 2000 and 1999, Toyota and Lexus vehicles accounted for approximately 9.8%,
9.8%, 9.1% and 8.7%, respectively, of all retail automobile and light truck
unit sales volume in the United States. Changes in the volume of sales of
such vehicles resulting from governmental action, changes in consumer demand,
changes in pricing of imported units due to currency fluctuations, or other
events, could impact the level of finance and insurance operations of the
Company. To date, the level of the Company's operations has not been
restricted by the level of sales of Toyota and Lexus vehicles.

service the obligations arising out of its own bonds, debentures, notes and
other investment securities and commercial paper and (ii) honor its obligations
incurred as a result of guarantees or credit support agreements that it has
extended. The agreement is not a guarantee by TMC of any securities or
obligations of TFSC.

TMCC's primary competitors for retail leasing and financing are commercial
banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions, finance companies and
other captive automobile finance companies. Commercial banks and other captive
automobile finance companies also provide wholesale financing and the other
types of financing discussed above under "Other Dealer Financing" for Toyota
and Lexus dealers. Competition for the principal products and services
provided through the insurance operations is primarily from national and
regional independent service contract providers. TMCC's strategy for long term
profitable growth is to supplement, with competitive financing and insurance
programs, the overall commitment of TMS to offer a complete package of services
to authorized Toyota and Lexus dealers and their customers.
-5--8-
The finance and insurance operations of the Company are regulated under both
federal and state law. A majority of states have enacted legislation
establishing licensing requirements to conduct retail and other finance and
insurance activities. Most states also impose limits on the maximum rate of
finance charges. In certain states, the margin between the present statutory
maximum interest rates and borrowing costs is sufficiently narrow that, in
periods of rapidly increasing or high interest rates, there could be an adverse
effect on the Company's operations in these states if the Company were unable
to pass on increased interest costs to its customers. In addition, state laws
differ as to whether anyone suffering injury to person or property involving a
leased vehicle may bring an action against the owner of the vehicle merely by
virtue of that ownership. To the extent that applicable state law permits such
an action, TMCC may be subject to liability to such an injured party. However,
the laws of most states either do not permit such suits or limit the lessor's
liability to the amount of any liability insurance that the lessee was required
under applicable law to maintain (or, in some states, the lessor was permitted
to maintain), but failed to maintain. TMCC's lease contracts contain
provisions requiring the lessees to maintain levels of insurance satisfying
applicable state law and TMCC maintains certain levels of contingent liability
insurance for protection from catastrophic claims. TMCC currently does not
monitor ongoing insurance compliance in connection with its customary servicing
procedures.
The Company's operations are also subject to regulation under federal and state
consumer protection and privacy statutes. The Company continually reviews its
operations for compliance with applicable laws. Future administrative rulings,
judicial decisions and legislation may require modification of the Company's
business practices and documentation.
Employee Relations
At NovemberApril 30, 1999,2002, the Company had approximately 2,8732,600 full-time employees. The
Company considers its employee relations to be good.

with respect to matters arising from the ordinary course of business. Certain
of these actions are or purport to be class action suits, seeking sizeable
damages.damages and/or changes in TMCC's business operations, policies and practices.
Certain of these actions are similar to suits, which have been filed against
other financial institutions and captive finance companies. Management and
internal and external counsel perform periodic reviews of pending claims and
actions to determine the probability of adverse verdicts and resulting amounts
of liability. The amounts of liability on pending claims and actions as of
September 30, 1999March 31, 2002 were not determinable; however, in the opinion of management,
the ultimate liability resulting therefrom should not have a material adverse
effect on TMCC's consolidated financial position or results of operations. The

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Basis of Presentation
- ---------------------
In view of the change in the Company's fiscal year from September 30 to
March 31 during fiscal 2001, management's discussion and analysis of financial
condition and results of operation will:
- compare the audited results of operations for the year ended March 31, 2002
to the proforma results of operations for the year ended March 31, 2001;
- compare the audited results of operations for the six months ended
March 31, 2001 ("transition period") to the proforma results of
operations for the six months ended March 31, 2000; and,
- compare the results of operations for the year ended September 30, 2000, to
the results of operations for the year ended September 30, 1999.
- the use of proforma results of operations provide meaningful comparative
analysis. Such proforma results of operation are appropriately noted.
Critical Accounting Policies
- ---------------------------------
TMCC has identified the policies below as critical to the Company's business
operations and the understanding of our results of operations. The impact and
any associated risks related to these policies on the Company's business
operations are discussed throughout Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations where such policies affect our
reported and expected financial results. The evaluation of the factors
described below in determining each of the Company's critical accounting
policies involves significant assumptions, complex analysis and management
judgment. Thus, changes in these factors may significantly impact the
Consolidated Financial Statements. Different assumptions or changes in
economic circumstances could result in additional changes to the allowances
for credit and residual value losses, the valuation of the Company's retained
interests and derivatives and its results of operations and financial
condition.
Allowance for Credit Losses
- ---------------------------------
TMCC maintains allowances to cover estimated losses on its present owned
portfolio resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments.
The allowance for credit losses is evaluated quarterly, considering historical
trends of repossession, charge-offs, recoveries and credit losses. In
addition, portfolio credit quality, and current and projected economic and
market conditions, are monitored and taken into account. After carefully
evaluating these factors, management develops several loss scenarios and
reviews allowance levels to ensure reserves are adequate to cover the probable
range of losses. The allowance for credit losses is considered by management
to be appropriate in relation to the expected loss experience on the present
owned portfolio. Losses are charged to the allowance when it has been
determined that payments will not be received and collateral cannot be
recovered or the related collateral is repossessed and sold. Any shortfall
between proceeds received and the carrying cost of repossessed collateral is
charged to the allowance. Recoveries are credited to the allowance for credit
losses. The allowance for credit losses and related provision expense are
included in finance receivables, net and investment in operating leases, net in
the Consolidated Balance Sheet and total expenses in the Consolidated Statement
of Income, respectively.
-14-
Allowance for Residual Value Losses
- ----------------------------------------
The Company also maintains an allowance to cover estimated vehicle disposition
losses related to unguaranteed residuals on its present owned portfolio. The
allowance required to cover estimated residual value losses is evaluated
quarterly, considering projected vehicle return rates and projected residual
value losses derived from historical and market information on used vehicle
sales, historical factors including trends in lease returns, the new car
markets, and general economic conditions. After carefully evaluating these
factors, management develops several loss scenarios and reviews allowance
levels to ensure reserves are adequate to cover the probable range of losses.
The allowance for residual value losses is maintained in amounts considered by
management to be appropriate in relation to the expected losses on the present
owned portfolio. Upon disposal of the assets, the allowance for residual
losses is adjusted for the difference between the net book value and the
proceeds from sale. The allowance for residual value losses and related
provision expense are included in finance receivables, net and investment in
operating leases, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and lease depreciation
expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income, respectively.
Gain on Sale of Receivables and Valuation of Residual Interests
- ---------------------------------------------------------------
The Company recognizes gains on the sale of receivables in accordance with
SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities, which replaced FASB Statement No. 125 and
other related pronouncements. The gain on sale is reported in the accompanying
Consolidated Statement of Income under investment and other income. The gain
on sale recorded depends, in part, on the carrying amount of the assets at the
time of the sale. The carrying amount is allocated between the assets sold and
the retained interests based on their relative fair values at the date of the
sale.
TMCC records its retained assets at fair value, which is estimated by using a
discounted cash flow analysis. The retained assets are not considered to have
a readily available market value. The key economic assumptions used in the
calculation of the initial gain on sale of receivables and the subsequent
valuation of the retained interests include the estimated interest rate
environment (in order to project the net rate earned on the residual
interests, if applicable), severity and rate of credit losses, and the
prepayment speed of the receivables. Management estimates the credit loss
rate based on a number of factors including attributes of the finance
receivables securitized. Attributes considered include the new versus used
vehicle contract mix, loan credit scoring, and seasoning of contracts sold.
To determine the prepayment assumption used, management considers prior and
current prepayment speeds of outstanding securitization transactions and
estimated future economic conditions. Discount rates applied to the residual
interests at the point of sale are at current market rates based on an
investment with a similar term and risk associated with the retained interest.
All key assumptions used in the valuation of the retained interests are
reviewed at least quarterly and are revised as deemed appropriate. After
carefully evaluating the factors discussed above, management ensures that the
final assumptions used are adequate to cover probable potential losses or
decreases in cash flows related to the prepayment of assets.
In certain transactions, the securitization trust issues securities bearing
interest at variable rates, although the underlying receivables held by the
securitization trust bear interest at fixed rates. In these circumstances,
swaps are used to fix the spread between the different interest rates. As a
result, management does not need to factor in possible adverse interest rate
changes that would reduce the value of the retained interests.
-15-
The Company accounts for its retained interests in accordance with EITF No.
99-20, "Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and
Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets." Under EITF 99-
20, TMCC recognizes the excess of all cash flows attributable to the
beneficial interest estimated at the acquisition/transaction date (the
"transaction date") over the initial investment as interest income over the
life of the beneficial interest using the effective yield method. As
adjustments to the estimated cash flows are made based upon expected market
conditions, the Company adjusts the rate at which income is earned
prospectively. Additionally, EITF 99-20 provides guidance as to when the
holder of a retained interest must conclude that a decline in value below the
carrying amount is considered permanent impairment. TMCC's policy is that if
a decrease in the estimated future cash flows results in a fair value below
the carrying amount and the decline is considered permanent, then the asset is
written down through earnings (as opposed to other comprehensive income). Any
excess of the carrying amount of the retained interest over its fair value
results in an adjustment to the asset with a corresponding offset to
unrealized gain. Unrealized gains, net of income taxes, related to retained
assets are included in comprehensive income.
Derivatives and Hedging Activities
- ----------------------------------
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133") requires companies to record
derivatives on the balance sheet as assets and liabilities, measured at fair
value. Fair value is determined using externally quoted market values where
possible. If externally quoted market rates are not available, the Company
uses external market rates in conjunction with a customized market valuation
system to determine the fair value of the Company's derivatives. Derivative
assets and liabilities include interest rate swaps, indexed note swap
agreements, cross currency interest rate swap agreements and option-based
products. The accounting for the gain or loss due to changes in fair value of
the hedged item depends on whether the relationship between the hedged item and
the derivative instrument qualifies for hedge treatment. If the relationship
between the hedged item and the derivative instrument does not qualify as a
hedge, the gains or losses are reported in earnings when they occur. However,
if the relationship between the hedged item and the derivative instrument
qualifies as a hedge, the accounting varies based on the type of risk being
hedged. The types of instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting
include, but are not limited to, U.S. basis swap instruments, and currency
structured transactions including inverse floating rate instruments.
Derivatives are recognized in the balance sheet at their fair value. On the
date that the Company enters into a derivative contract, it designates the
derivative as a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or a
foreign-currency fair-value hedge (a "foreign currency hedge"). Changes in the
fair value of a derivative that is highly effective as - and that is designated
and qualifies as - a fair-value hedge or foreign-currency hedge, along with
changes in fair value of the hedged assets or liabilities that are attributable
to the hedged risk, are recorded in current-period earnings. Additional
information concerning the SFAS No. 133 requirements is disclosed in Note 8 -
Derivatives and Hedging Activities of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements and Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Derivative
Financial Instruments.

(1) Pro Forma
Net income from financing operations decreased 5% in fiscal 1999,increased $148 million, or 290%, for the
year ended March 31, 2002 as compared to the year ended March 31, 2001
primarily due to an increase in finance margin resulting from lower financing revenuesinterest
rates, higher earning asset amounts funded, and favorable fair value adjustment
related to the Statement of Financial Statement Accounting Standards No. 133,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"),
which is reported as SFAS 133 fair value adjustments in the Consolidated
Statement of Income. This increase was partially offset by higher termination
losses, increased net credit losses, higher impairment of assets retained from
the sale of retail finance receivables, the write-off of its $5 million
investment in Toyota Credit Argentina, S.A. ("TCA") and the establishment of a
reserve of $26 million relating to TMCC's $40 million guaranty of TCA's
offshore outstanding debt and higher operating and administrative expenses
substantially offset bywhich increased as a result of the costs incurred in connection with the
restructuring of TMCC's field operations.
Net income from financing operations decreased $19 million, or 46%, in the
transition period as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2000, primarily
due to lower interest margin as a result of higher interest expense, lowerhigher
operating and administrative expenses, higher provision for credit losses,
losses associated with the implementation of SFAS 133 in fiscal 2001 and lower depreciation on leases.the
recognition of asset impairment losses partially offset by higher financing
revenues and higher investment and other income. The decrease in fiscal 19982000
financing operations net income from fiscal 1997 reflects increased1999 is due primarily to lower
interest margin as a result of higher interest expense, the recognition of
asset impairment losses, higher provision for residual valuecredit losses, as well asand higher
operating and administrative expenses,expenses.
Net income from insurance operations increased $6 million, or 16%, for the year
ended March 31, 2002 as compared to the year ended March 31, 2001 primarily due
to increased contract volume. Net income from insurance operations increased
$4 million, or 25%, in the transition period as compared to the six months

-11--18-
TMCC's net earning assets as of March 31, 2002 increased significantly from
March 31, 2001 primarily due to an increase in retail and vehicle wholesale and
other financing earning assets. The increase in retail earning assets is
primarily due to higher levels of incentives on new vehicles and the strong
sales of Toyota and Lexus vehicles. The increase in wholesale earning assets
was primarily due to a 23% increase in the number of dealers receiving
wholesale financing.
TMCC's net earning assets as of March 31, 2001 increased slightly from
September 30, 2000 due to growth in wholesale and finance lease earning assets,
partially offset by a decline in retail and operating lease earning assets.
The increase in wholesale earning assets was primarily due to a 6% increase in
the number of dealers receiving wholesale financing. The increase in finance
lease earning assets was primarily due to volume exceeding liquidations during
the transition period. The decline in retail earning assets was primarily due
to the sales of retail receivables pursuant to securitizations totaling
$3.1 billion during the transition period.
TMCC's net earning assets as of September 30, 19992000 increased from September 30,
19981999 due to growth in retail, finance lease and wholesale earning assets,
partially offset by a decline in operating lease earning assets. The increase in retail earning assets was
primarily due to higher retail contract volume, partially offset by the sale of
$989 million of retail finance receivables. Wholesale earning assets increased
from September 30, 1998 primarily due to higher dealer inventories. The
decrease in lease earning assets was primarily due to lower lease contract
volume and the sale of $780 million of interests in lease finance receivables.
The decrease in allowance for credit losses reflects improved loss experience
and is deemed adequate to cover expected losses based on current and historical
loss experience, portfolio composition and other factors.
TMCC's net earning assets as of September 30, 1998 increased from September 30,
1997 primarily due to growth in lease, retail and wholesale earning assets
attributable to higher volume, partially offset by the sale of $1.6 billion of
interests in lease finance receivables.
In October 1996, TMCC created Toyota Lease Trust, a Delaware business trust
(the "Titling Trust"), to act as a lessor and to hold title to leased vehicles
in specified states. The value of the lease contracts purchased by the Titling
Trust during the year ended March 31, 2002 and the six months ended March 31,
2001 and 2000, represented approximately 47%, 48% and 42%, respectively, of all
lease contracts purchased by both TMCC and the Titling Trust. The value of the
lease contracts purchased by the Titling Trust in fiscal 19992000 and 19981999
represented approximately 41%43% and 40%41%, respectively, of all lease contracts
purchased by both TMCC and the Titling Trust. TMCC holds an undivided trust
interest in lease contracts owned by the Titling Trust, and such lease
contracts are included in TMCC's lease assets, unless and until such time as
the beneficial interests in such contracts are transferred in connection with
a securitization transaction. SubstantiallyThe majority of all leases owned by the Titling
Trust are classified as finance receivables due to certain residual value
insurance arrangements in place with respect to such leases, while leases of
similar nature originated outside of the Titling Trust are classified as
operating leases. The continued acquisitionpurchase of residual value insurance on leases acquired
by the Titling Trust hasbefore June 2001 changed the composition of the Company's
earning assets resulting in an increasing mix of finance receivables relative
to operating lease assets due to the classification differences described
above. However, beginning June 2001, the purchasing of residual value
insurance on lease contracts was terminated. As a result, the future
composition of the Company's lease portfolio will gradually change as more
leases acquired by the Titling Trust will be classified as operating leases.
TMS sponsors special lease and retail programs which subsidize reduced monthly
payments on certain Toyota and Lexus new vehicles to qualified lease and retail
customers. Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A., Inc. ("TMHU") subsidizes reduced
monthly payments on certain Toyota industrial equipment to qualified lease and
retail customers. Support amounts received from TMS and TMHU in connection
with these programs approximate the balances required by TMCC to maintain
revenues at standard program levels and are earned over the expected lease and
retail installment contract terms. The level of sponsored program activity
varies based on TMS and TMHU's marketing strategies, and revenues earned vary
based on the mix of Toyota and Lexus vehicles, timing of programs and the level
of support provided. TMCC's revenuesSupport amounts earned from TMS and TMHU's sponsored
special lease and retail contracts outstanding totaled $143 million, $63 million, $61
million, $108 million and $126 million $142 millionfor the fiscal year ended March 31,
2002, the six months ended March 31, 2001 and $174 million2000, and for fiscal years 2000
and 1999, 1998respectively.
TMCC's decrease in lease contract volume and 1997, respectively.corresponding increase in retail
contract volume during the year ended March 31, 2002 as compared to the year
ended March 31, 2001 reflects a general shift in programs sponsored by TMS from
lease to retail as well as an industry-wide shift away from leasing.
-19-
TMCC's lease contract volume declined during the transition period ended March
31, 2001 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2000 reflecting lower
finance penetration due to lower levels of programs sponsored by TMS. TMCC's
retail contract volume for the transition period ended March 31, 2001 increased
from the six months ended March 31, 2000 primarily due to competitive pricing
and the strong sales of Toyota and Lexus vehicles and higher TMS sponsored
programs.
TMCC's lease contract volume for the year ended September 30, 19992000 declined
from 19981999 reflecting lower finance penetration due to changes in lease programs
and the residual value setting policy, as well as lower levels of programs sponsored by TMS. TMCC's retail
contract volume for the year ended September 30, 19992000 increased from 19981999
levels despite reduced TMS sponsored programs due to competitive pricing and the strong sales of Toyota and Lexus
vehicles.
HigherThe increase in used vehicle retail contract volume during the year ended
March 31, 2002 reflects an increased supply of used cars returned to dealers in
1998 compared to 1997 was primarilythe form of trade-ins due to strong
salesrecent new model incentives, a large supply of
Toyotaused vehicles due to the volume of vehicles coming off-lease and Lexusa shift from
leasing to retail financing. The increase in used vehicle retail contract
volume during the transition period and fiscal 2000 reflects a large supply of
used vehicles due to the volume of vehicles coming off-lease as well as higher levels of programs
sponsored by TMS.

Net Financing Revenue and Other Revenues
- --------------------------------------------------------------
TMCC's net financing revenues increased $412 million, or 69%, for the year
ended March 31, 2002 as compared to the year ended March 31, 2001 due to lower
interest expense, higher financing revenues and favorable fair value adjustment
related to SFAS 133, which is reported as SFAS 133 fair value adjustments in
the Consolidated Statement of Income. TMCC's net financing revenues decreased
slightly$25 million, or 9%, during the transition period ended March 31, 2001 as
compared to the six months ended March 31, 2000 primarily due to higher
interest expense and losses associated with the adoption of SFAS 133
substantially offset by higher financing revenues. TMCC's net financing
revenues increased in fiscal 19992000 primarily due to lower leasing revenues, offset by lower interest expensedepreciation expenses
and increasedhigher retail and wholesale revenues. TMCC's continued userevenues, substantially offset by higher
interest expense. The purchase of residual value insurance for lease contracts
acquired by the Titling Trust to
purchase leases has caused a shift in the composition of earning assetsthe lease
portfolio from operating leases to finance receivables,leases, as discussed earlier, and
resulted in increaseddecreased straight-line depreciation and decreased revenues from
finance leases (until such interestsoperating leases. However, due to the termination of residual value insurance
on lease contracts beginning in leases were
sold in a securitization transaction)June 2001, straight-line depreciation and reduced
operating lease revenues and
depreciation onare expected to increase as leases acquired by the
Titling Trust will be classified as operating leases. The decrease in fiscal 1998 net financing
revenues reflects increased provision for residual value losses as well as
increased interest expense, partially offset by increased retail and wholesale
revenues.
Insurance premiums earned and contract revenues increased 9% and 15% in fiscal
1999 and 1998, respectively, due to higher underwriting revenues associated
with in-force agreements.
The following table summarizes TMCC's investment and other income for the
fiscal years ended September 30, 1999, 1998 and 1997:

Investment and other income...................... $ 69 $ 79 $ 66
==== ==== ====
The decrease in investment and other income from fiscal 1998 to fiscal 1999 is
primarily due to the impairment of an asset retained in the fiscal 1997 sale
of interests in lease finance receivables, as well as lower gains on assets
sold, partially offset by higher servicing income. The increase in investment
and other income from fiscal 1997 to fiscal 1998 reflects primarily higher
levels of servicing fee income from accounts included in the Company's asset-
backed securitization programs. Servicing fee income increased 50% and 100%
in fiscal 1999 and 1998, respectively, due to growth in the combined balance
of sold interests in lease finance and sold retail receivables.
Gains recognized on asset-backed securitization transactions generally
accelerate the recognition of income on lease and retail contracts, net of
servicing fees and other related deferrals, into the period the assets are
sold. Numerous factors can affect the timing and amounts of these gains, such
as the type and amount of assets sold, the structure of the sale, key
assumptions used and current financial market conditions.

Straight-line Depreciation
Straight-line depreciation expense on operating leases decreased 3% during the
twelve months ended March 31, 2002 compared to the comparable prior period
resulting from decline in average outstanding operating lease assets.
Straight-line depreciation expense decreased 5% during the transition period
compared to the same period in fiscal 2000, and 8% and 9% forduring fiscal 1999 and
1998, respectively, corresponding with2000 also as
a declineresult of a decrease in average outstanding operating lease assets. As
discussed earlier, the acquisition ofpurchasing residual value insurance for leases acquired by
the Titling Trust hasthrough June 2001 increased the ratio of lease finance
receivables relative to operating lease assets, which results in reducedassets. TMCC discontinued purchasing
residual value insurance for operating lease revenues andassets acquired by the Titling
Trust beginning July 2001. The Company expects an increase in straight-line
depreciation onexpense as operating leases.leases become a larger proportion of the
Company's lease portfolio.
Residual Value Losses
TMCC is subject to residual value risk in connection with its lease portfolio.
TMCC's residual value exposure is a function of the number of off-lease
vehicles returned for disposition and any shortfall between the net
disposition proceeds and the estimated unguaranteed residual values on
returned vehicles. If the market value of a leased vehicle at contract
termination is less than its contract residual value, the vehicle is more
likely to be returned to TMCC. A higher rate of vehicle returns exposes TMCC
to a risk of higher aggregate losses.
Total unguaranteed residual values related to TMCC's vehicle lease portfolio
declinedincreased from approximately $7.6$6.9 billion to $7.1 billion between March 31,
2001 and March 31, 2002, respectively. The increase primarily resulted from
the suspension of purchasing residual value insurance for operating leases
acquired by the Titling Trust beginning in June 2001. Total unguaranteed
residual values related to TMCC's vehicle lease portfolio decreased from
approximately $7.1 billion at September 30, 1998March 31, 2000 to $6.9 billion at March 31, 2001
due in part to the continuation of purchasing residual value insurance for
operating leases acquired by the Titling Trust. Total unguaranteed residual
values related to TMCC's vehicle lease portfolio increased from approximately
$6.5 billion at September 30, 1999 reflectingto $7.0 billion at September 30, 2000
commensurate with the acquisitiongrowth in leased assets during the same period.
The increase of $144 million in the provision for residual value insurance
on an increasing numberlosses as of
leasesMarch 31, 2002 reflects the overall increases in connection withvehicle return rates and
losses per vehicle experienced in the lease securitization
programcurrent year as well as salesexpected market
conditions. TMCC believes that reserve levels at March 31, 2002 are adequate
to cover expected losses on its vehicle portfolio.
TMCC experienced a $76 million (31%) increase in losses at vehicle disposition
in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002 relative to the comparable period
ended March 31, 2001. The increase resulted from an increased supply of interestsoff-
lease vehicles, higher return rates and higher average losses per vehicle.
The increase in lease finance receivables. TMCClosses also reflects the downward pressure placed on used
vehicle prices as a result of the general economic downturn, competitive new
vehicle pricing for core Toyota and Lexus models and industry-wide record
levels of incentives on new vehicles. The Company also believes that these
factors were compounded by auto manufacturers' responding to the events of
September 11, 2001 with additional incentives, which continued throughout the
remainder of fiscal 2002.
The increase of $36 million in losses at vehicle disposition during the
transition period as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2000 also
reflects a larger supply of vehicles coming off-lease, higher off-lease
vehicle return rates and higher losses per vehicle. The provision for
residual value losses increased in the transition period as a result of these
factors.
-21-
The Company also maintains an allowance forto cover estimated vehicle disposition
losses related to unguaranteed residuals on lease vehicles returned to the
Company for disposition at lease termination.its present owned portfolio. The level of
allowance required to cover future vehicle dispositionestimated residual value losses is based uponevaluated
quarterly, considering projected vehicle return rates and projected residual
value losses derived from historical and market information on used vehicle
sales, historical factors including trends in lease return
trends,returns, the new car
markets, and general economic factors.

conditions. After carefully evaluating these
factors, management develops several loss scenarios and reviews allowance
levels to ensure reserves are adequate to cover the probable range of losses.
The increaseallowance for residual value losses is maintained in amounts considered by
management to be appropriate in relation to the expected losses on the present
owned portfolio. Upon disposal of the assets, the allowance for residual
losses is adjusted for the difference between the net book value and the
proceeds from sale. The allowance for residual value losses and related
provision expense are included in finance receivables, net and investment in
operating leases, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and lease depreciation
expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income, respectively.
The decrease in the provision for residual value losses in fiscal 2000
compared to fiscal 1999 reflects higher off-leasereduced vehicle return rates and a larger supplydisposition losses of vehicles
coming off-lease resulting in higher total losses although the loss per
vehicle has declined$30
million during fiscal 2000 coupled with management's estimate that reserve
levels during the same period.period were considered adequate to cover expected
losses at September 2000. The number of returned leased
vehicles sold by TMCC duringdecrease in vehicle disposition losses was
primarily due to a specified period as a percentage ofdecrease in the number of lease contracts that as of their origination dates werevehicles scheduled to terminate
("full term return ratio") was 47% for fiscal 1999 as compared to
40% and 18% for fiscal 1998 and 1997, respectively. Losses at vehicle
disposition increased $42 million and $118 millionresulting from the sale of interests in lease finance receivables during
fiscal 19991997 and fiscal 1998, respectively, although per unit residual value loss rates have
improved for fiscal 1999 as compared with fiscal 1998. TMCC believes that
industry-wide record levelspartially offset by a higher rate of incentives on new vehicles and a large supply
of late model off-lease vehicles have put downward pressure on used car
prices.vehicle returns.
In addition TMCC's increased vehicle return rates and losses reflectto the impact of competitive new vehicle pricing for core Toyota and Lexus models.
Return rates andfactors discussed above, disposition losses may also be
affected by the amount and types of accessories or installed optional
equipment included in leased vehicles. Although vehicle loss rates are
typically the result of a combination of factors, to the extent certain types
of optional equipment depreciate more quicklyrapidly than the value of the base
vehicle, leased vehicles, having a greater portion of their manufacturer's
suggested retail price attributable to such optional equipment, will
experience relatively higher levels of loss. TMCC
expects the large supplyTo help mitigate risk of vehicles coming off-lease to continue through
fiscal 2000loss
associated with accessories and that the full term return ratio and losses will remain at or
near current levels.
The Company has taken action to reduce vehicle disposition losses by
developing strategies to increase dealer and lessee purchases of off-lease
vehicles, expanding marketing of off-lease vehicles through the internet and
maximizing proceeds on vehicles sold through auction. In addition,optional equipment, TMCC implemented a new
residual value setting policy for newbeginning with model year 1999 Toyota vehicles that separately calculatesvehicles.
Under the new policy, the residual value applicable to the base vehicle and
the residual value applicable to certain specified optional accessories and
optional equipment.equipment are calculated separately.
The Company has also taken action to reduce vehicle disposition losses by
developing strategies to increase dealer purchases of off-lease vehicles and
expanding marketing of off-lease vehicles through the internet to maximize
proceeds on vehicles sold through auction.
Vehicle Lease Return Rates
The number of returned leased vehicles sold by TMCC during a specified period
as a percentage of the number of lease contracts that as of their origination
dates were scheduled to terminate in the same period was 55% for the year
ended March 31, 2002 as compared to 51%, 54%, 52%, 50% and 47% for the twelve
months ended March 31, 2001, the six months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000 and
for the years ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase
for the year ended March 31, 2002 as compared to the same period ended March
31, 2001, is primarily due to the higher supply of off-lease vehicles.
TMS Support
Under an arrangement with TMS, TMCC received Parent support for vehicle disposition
losses in June 2000. No assurance can be provided as to either the last three quarterslevel of
fiscal 1998. During fiscal
1999,support or the Company did not receive any Parentcontinuation of the support for vehicle disposition
losses and there are currently no plans for such supportarrangement in fiscal 2000.
TMCC's lease portfolio includes contracts with original terms ranging from 12
to 60 months; the average original contract term in TMCC's lease portfolio was
38 months and 40 months at September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

- ----------------
Interest expense decreased 5% in fiscal 199928% during the year ended March 31, 2002 as compared
with fiscal 1998to the year ended March 31, 2001 primarily due to lower average cost of
borrowings, partially offset by higher average outstanding debt. Interest
expense increased 22% during the six months ended March 31, 2001 compared with
the six months ended March 31, 2000, and 37% in fiscal 2000 compared with
fiscal 1999 primarily due to higher average cost of borrowings and an increase
in average debt outstanding. Interest expense increased 8% in fiscal
1998 reflecting higher average debt outstanding, slightly offset by a decline
in the average cost of borrowings. The weighted average cost of borrowings was 5.34%4.06%,

Insurance
- ---------
The principal activities of TMCC's insurance subsidiary, Toyota Motor
Insurance Services, Inc. ("TMIS"), include marketing, underwriting, claims
administration and providing certain insurance and contractual coverages to
Toyota and Lexus vehicle dealers and their customers. In addition, TMIS
insures and reinsures certain TMS and TMCC risks. Insurance premiums earned
and contract revenues recognized from insurance operations increased $17
million, or 12%, for the year ended March 31, 2002 as compared with the year
ended March 31, 2001 primarily due to increased contract volume. Insurance
premiums earned and contract revenues remained constant during the six months
ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2000.
Insurance premiums earned and contract revenues recognized from insurance
operations increased $16 million, or 13%, in fiscal 2000 due to higher
underwriting revenues associated with in-force agreements.

(1) Pro Forma
The increase in investment and other income for the twelve months ended March
31, 2002 as compared to the twelve months ended March 31, 2001 is primarily due
to higher gains on sold receivables, partially offset by a decrease in
investment income. The increase in investment and other income for the
transition period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the six months ended
March 31, 2000 is primarily due to higher investment income and gains on
receivables sold. The increase in investment and other income from fiscal 1999
to fiscal 2000 is primarily due to higher investment income, partially offset
by lower gains on receivables sold and lower servicing fee income.
-23-
Investment Income
The decrease in investment income for the twelve months ended March 31, 2002 as
compared to the twelve months ended March 31, 2001 is due to decreased net
realized gains on sales of available-for-sale securities coupled with a general
decrease in interest rates. The increase in investment income during the
transition period ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the six months ended
March 31, 2000, and during fiscal 2000 as compared to fiscal 1999, reflects
higher market interest rates and an increase in TMCC's portfolio of marketable
securities due to a higher level of assets retained in connection with recent
retail securitizations.
Servicing Fee Income
Servicing fee income decreased for the twelve months ended March 31, 2002 as
compared to the twelve months ended March 31, 2001 due to fewer securitization
transactions qualifying for sale treatment in the current fiscal year. TMCC
normally collects a 1% servicing fee on sold receivables. Due to the nature
of, and accounting treatment for, the September 2001 transaction, TMCC is not
paid this fee for the receivables included in that transaction. Servicing fee
income increased 18% for the six months ended March 31, 2001 compared to the
six months ended March 31, 2000 due to the increase in the level of sold
retail receivables. Servicing fee income decreased 13% for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2000 due to the reduction in the average balance of sold
interests in lease and retail finance receivables as well as the temporary
waiver of servicing fee income related to the fiscal 1997 sale of interests in
lease finance receivables. Servicing fee income increased 50% for the fiscal
year ended September 30, 1999 due to the growth in the combined balance of
sold interests in lease finance and sold retail receivables.
Gains on Receivables Sold
Gains recognized on asset-backed securitization transactions generally
accelerate the recognition of income on lease and retail contracts, net of
related deferrals, into the period the assets are sold. Numerous factors can
affect the timing and amounts of these gains, such as the type and amount of
assets sold, the structure of the sale, key assumptions used and current
financial market conditions.
Gains on receivables sold increased $29 million to $81 million for the twelve
months ended March 31, 2002 as compared to the twelve months ended March 31,
2001. The increase reflects decreases in market interest rates, which resulted
in larger spreads retained by the Company, coupled with an increased use of
securitization. Gains on receivables sold increased $41 million during the six
months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the same period in fiscal 2000,
primarily due to decreases in market interest rates which result in larger
spreads being retained by the Company. Gains on receivables sold decreased $10
million during fiscal year 2000 due to an increase in market interest rates.
Gains on assets sold are further discussed in Note 7 - Sale of Receivables and
Securitization of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
-24-
Loss on Asset Impairment
- ---------------------------
TMCC performs a review of the fair market value of assets retained in the sale
of retail receivables and interests in lease finance receivables on at least a
quarterly basis. The fair market value of these retained assets is impacted
by management's and the market's expectations as to future losses on vehicle
disposition, credit losses and prepayment rates.
Impairment losses related to lease and retail finance receivables totaled $70
million for the twelve months ended March 31, 2002. Losses related to asset
impairment are discussed further in Note 7: Sale of Receivables and
Securitization.
In June 2001, the Company experienced increased return rates and loss per unit
upon disposition relating to vehicles associated with its lease and finance
receivables. This experience, combined with revised forecasts for future
return rates and loss per unit, resulted in a downward revision to the vehicle
disposition assumptions. The assumption for expected residual value losses
for TMCC's lease securitizations was 4.9%-7.6% at March 31, 2001 and was
revised to 7.1%-7.9% at June 30, 2001. The increase in residual value loss
assumptions was primarily due to the performance of leases originated prior to
model year 1999 and scheduled to terminate over the next 3 months. As a
result of the change in assumptions, TMCC recognized losses due to the
permanent impairment of assets retained in the sale of interests in lease
finance receivables totaling $47 million as required by EITF 99-20, which was
adopted in the first quarter of fiscal year 2002.
During fiscal year 2002 TMCC recognized an additional $23 million in
impairment losses related to retail finance receivables as a result of actual
credit losses exceeding original credit loss assumptions. Actual credit
losses increased primarily due to recent economic conditions, restructuring of
field operations, and the impact of a full year under tiered pricing. Retail
credit loss assumptions have been revised as of March 31, 2002 to reflect
current market conditions. The $23 million impairment charge effectively
reduces the value of TMCC's retained interests in securitized retail finance
receivables to estimated net realizable value as of March 31, 2002.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company refined its methodology
for forecasting losses on vehicle disposition to better reflect recent and
expected loss experience. TMCC recognized losses due to the permanent
impairment of assets retained in the sale of interests in lease finance
receivables totaling $25 million, $14 million, $74 million and $19 million
during the six months ended March 31, 2001 and 2000, and during the years
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, 1998respectively, resulting from an increase in
vehicle disposition loss assumptions related to leases originated prior to
model year 1999 and 1997,terminating fiscal years 2000 through 2004. The Company
did not recognize any impairment losses related to assets retained in the sale
of retail finance receivables during the six months ended March 31, 2001 and
2000, or during the years ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
-25-
Losses Related to Argentine Investment
- --------------------------------------
TMCC has executed guarantees totaling $65 million in respect to TCA's offshore
dollar bank loans, of which approximately $40 million, including principal and
interest, is outstanding. Late in 2001, the Argentine government instituted a
series of changes that led to political, economic and regulatory risks to
Argentine businesses. The government has imposed foreign exchange controls
restricting offshore payment transfers, and these controls are currently
preventing TCA from sending payments on its offshore dollar loans out of
Argentina. In February 2002, the Argentine government established measures to
re-denominate the entire Argentine economy into pesos and has permitted the
peso to float freely against other global currencies. This re-denomination
policy adversely affected TCA's financial condition and its ability to fully
satisfy its offshore dollar loans. Consequently, TMCC has included a charge
against income of $31 million to write-off its $5 million investment in TCA and
to establish a reserve of $26 million relating to TMCC's $40 million guaranty
of TCA's offshore outstanding debt. TMCC will continue to monitor the
situation in Argentina.
Operating and Administrative Expenses
- -------------------------------------
Operating and administrative expenses increased 16%19% for the year ended March
31, 2002 as compared to the year ended March 31, 2001, 22% in the six months
ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2000, and 25%6%
for the year ended September 20, 2000 as compared to the year ended September
30, 1999, respectively. The increase in fiscal 1999 and
1998, respectively.2002 reflects costs associated
with the field operations restructuring, technology-related projects as well as
costs to support the Company's growing customer base. The increases noted in
the transition period and fiscal 2000 also reflect primarily additional personnelexpenses associated with
technology-related projects and operating costs required to support TMCC's growing customer base, growth in the
Company's insurance operations, as well as costs in connection with technology
upgrades and software modifications to address year 2000 issues. TMCC
anticipates continued growthbase.
Included in operating and administrative expenses reflectingare charges allocated by TMS
for certain technological and administrative services provided to TMCC.
During the year ended March 31, 2002, the six months ended March 31, 2001 and
2000, and for fiscal 2000, net charges reimbursed by TMCC to TMS totaled
$51 million, $27 million, $13 million and $25 million, respectively. Net
charges to be reimbursed by TMCC to TMS during fiscal 2003 are estimated to
range between $45 million and $55 million.
The Credit Support Fee Agreement entered into between TMCC and TFSC provides
that TMCC will pay to TFSC a semi-annual fee equal to 0.05% per annum of the
weighted average outstanding amount of TMCC's Securities entitled to credit
support, as described under Item 1. Credit support fees included in operating
and administrative expenses for the year ended March 31, 2002 and the six
months ended March 31, 2001 were $12 million and $6 million, respectively, and
expenses for fiscal 2003 are estimated to be $13 million.
-26-
Restructuring and Related Activities
Operating and administrative expenses are also expected to increase during
fiscal 2003 as a result of the costs associatedincurred in connection with portfolio growththe continued
restructuring of TMCC's field operations. The branch offices of TMCC are
being converted to serve only dealer financing needs which includes the
purchasing of contracts from dealers, financing inventories, loans to dealers
for business acquisitions, facilities refurbishment, real estate purchases and
technology initiatives.working capital requirements, as well as consulting on finance and insurance
operations. The other functions that the branch offices currently cover, such
as customer service, collections, lease termination and administrative
functions for retail and lease contracts, will be handled by three regional
customer service centers. The regional center for the Western region was
opened in October 2001. The regional center for the Eastern region opened in
February 2002, and the transfer of the other functions from branches to the
regional center for the Midwest region is scheduled to continue during the
summer of 2002. The conversion of these activities is expected to be
completed in fiscal 2003.
Restructuring and related charges of $23.4 million and $6.0 million were
expensed during the periods ending March 31, 2002 and March 31, 2001,
respectively. The expenses charged in the period ending March 31, 2002 were
comprised of $9.1 million related to employee separations, $7.2 million
related to asset and facility costs and $7.1 million for other exit costs.
The expenses charged in the period ended March 31, 2001 were comprised
entirely of employee separation costs.
During fiscal 2002 TMCC experienced an increase in delinquency and charge off
rates as a result of the disruption to normal collections processes during the
field reorganization. TMCC is taking measures to minimize the disruption of
operations; however, the restructuring of field operations could continue to
adversely affect delinquencies and credit losses. Management believes that
the impact of the restructuring has been accurately factored into the
provision for credit losses. Upon the completion of the field reorganization
and strategic deployment of resources, the Company hopes to derive greater
internal operation efficiencies and superior dealer and customer account
management.
Provision for Credit Losses
- ---------------------------
TMCC maintains allowances to cover estimated losses on its present owned
portfolio resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments.
The allowance for credit losses is evaluated quarterly, considering historical
trends of repossession, charge-offs, recoveries and credit losses. In
addition, portfolio credit quality, and current and projected economic and
market conditions, are monitored and taken into account. After carefully
evaluating these factors, management develops several loss scenarios and
reviews allowance levels to ensure reserves are adequate to cover the probable
range of losses. The allowance for credit losses is considered by management
to be appropriate in relation to the expected loss experience on the present
owned portfolio. Losses are charged to the allowance when it has been
determined that payments will not be received and collateral cannot be
recovered or the related collateral is repossessed and sold. Any shortfall
between proceeds received and the carrying cost of repossessed collateral is
charged to the allowance. Recoveries are credited to the allowance for credit
losses. The allowance for credit losses and related provision expense are
included in finance receivables, net and investment in operating leases, net in
the Consolidated Balance Sheet and total expenses in the Consolidated Statement
of Income, respectively.
-27-
The allowance for credit losses increased for the year ended March 31, 2002 as
compared to the year ended March 31, 2001 due to an increase in the provision
for credit losses, partially offset by an increase in net charge-offs. TMCC's
provision for credit losses decreased 35%increased 60% for the year ended March 31, 2002 as
compared to the year ended March 31, 2001, 48% during the transition period and
7%63% during fiscal 2000 compared to fiscal 1999, reflecting growth in earning
assets and, 1998, respectively, reflecting management's estimate that current reserve
levels are adequate based on improvedin 2002, increased credit loss experience, portfolio
compositionlosses and other factors.delinquencies as discussed
below. Allowances for credit losses are evaluated periodically,quarterly, considering
historical loss experience and other factors, and are considered adequate to
cover expected credit losses as of September 30, 1999.
In fiscal 1999,March 31, 2002.
TMCC pilot tested an expandedcompleted the national launch of a tiered pricing program for both retail
and lease vehicle contracts.contracts during the transition period ended March 31, 2001.
The objective of the expanded program is to better match customer risk with contract
rates charged to allow profitable purchases of a wider range of risk levels.
A national roll-out of the expanded tiered pricing
program for both retail and lease vehicle contracts is planned for fiscal 2000.
Implementation of this expanded program may result in bothhas contributed to increased average contract
yields and increased credit losses in connection with purchases of higher risk
contracts.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company requires, inAs a result of increased credit losses and delinquencies, TMCC increased the
normal courseallowance for credit losses as a percent of business, substantial funding to
support the level of its earning assets. Significant reliance is placed on the
Company's ability to obtain debt funding in the capital markets in addition to
funding provided by earning asset liquidations and cash provided by operating
activities as well as transactions through the Company's asset-backed
securitization programs. Debt issuances have generally been in the form of
commercial paper, and domestic and euro medium-term notes ("MTNs") and bonds.
On occasion, this funding has been supplemented by loans and equity
contributions from TMS. During FY 1999, TMCC began issuing extendible
commercial notes ("ECNs") which have an initial maturity period of up to ninety
days, subject to an extension for up to a maximum term of three hundred and
ninety days at the option of the Company.
Commercial paper and ECN issuances are used to meet short-term funding needs.
Commercial paper outstanding under TMCC's commercial paper program ranged from
approximately $1.1 billion to $2.9 billion during fiscal 1999, with an average
outstanding balance of $1.7 billion. The outstanding balance of ECNs at
September 30, 1999 totaled $146 million. For additional liquidity purposes,
TMCC maintains syndicated bank credit facilities with certain banks, which
aggregated $2.7 billion at September 30, 1999. No loans were outstanding under
any of these bank credit facilities during fiscal 1999. TMCC also maintains,
along with TMS, uncommitted, unsecured lines of credit with banks totaling
$175 million. At September 30, 1999, TMCC had issued approximately $13 million
in letters of credit.
Long-term funding requirements are met through the issuance of a variety of
debt securities underwritten in both the United States and international
capital markets. Domestic and euro MTNs and bonds have provided TMCC with
significant sources of funding. During fiscal 1999, TMCC issued approximately
$4.0 billion of domestic and euro MTNs and bonds all of which had original
maturities of one year or more.
The original maturities of all MTNs and bonds outstanding at September 30,
1999 ranged from one to eleven years. As of September 30, 1999, TMCC had
total MTNs and bonds outstanding of $16.9 billion, of which $7.6 billion was
denominated in foreign currencies.
TMCC anticipates continued use of MTNs and bonds in both the United States and
international capital markets. The Company maintains a shelf registration with
the SEC providing for the issuance of MTNs and other debt securities. At
November 30, 1999, approximately $0.6 billion was available for issuance under
this registration statement. The maximum aggregate principal amount authorized
to be outstanding at any time under TMCC's euro MTN program is $16.0 billion.
Approximately $6.0 billion was available for issuance under the euro MTN
program as of November 30, 1999. The United States and euro MTN programs may
be expanded from time to time to allow for the continued use of these sources
of funding. The Company has filed a new shelf registration statement with the
SEC covering debt securities in a principal amount equal to $1.0 billion to be
used for both MTN issuances and underwritten offerings. The Company expects to
increase the amount registered to $4.5 billion prior to effectiveness. In
addition, TMCC may issue bonds in the domestic and international capital
markets that are not issued under its MTN programs.
-18-
Additionally, TMCC uses its asset-backed securitization programs to generate
funds for investment ingross earning assets at March 31,
2002 as described in Note 7compared to the
Consolidated Financial Statements. During the year ended September 30, 1999,
TMCC sold interests in lease finance receivables totaling $780 million. During
fiscal 1999, the number and principal amount of leases purchased by the Toyota
Lease Trust in connection with TMCC's lease securitization program comprised a
significant and increasing percentage of what otherwise would have been TMCC's
lease portfolio. However, until leases are included in a securitization
transaction, they continue to be classified as finance receivables on TMCC's
balance sheet. In addition, TMCC maintains a shelf registration statement with
the SEC relating to the issuance of asset-backed notes secured by, and
certificates representing interests, in retail receivables. During the year
ended September 30, 1999, TMCC sold retail receivables totaling $989 million in
connection with securities issued under the shelf registration statement. As
of November 30, 1999, $1.5 billion remained available for issuance under the
registration statement.
TMCC's ratio of earnings to fixed charges was 1.24, 1.25 and 1.31 in the years
ended September 30, 1999, 1998, and 1997, respectively.March 31, 2001. TMCC believes that the declineincreased credit
losses and delinquencies are primarily due to the recent national economic
downturn, the introduction of the tiered pricing program, and the effects of
TMCC's field reorganization which has temporarily disrupted normal collection
activities. The decrease in the ratio has not affected its ability to maintain liquidity or
access to outside funding sources.
Cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities have been
used primarily to support earning asset growth. Cash provided by the
liquidation and saleallowance for credit losses as a percent of
gross earning assets totaling $21.0 billion and $19.1
billion during fiscal 1999 and 1998, respectively, was usedfrom September 2000 to purchase
additional investmentsMarch 2001 primarily reflects
significant growth in operating leases and finance receivables, totaling
$23.9 billion and $23.6 billion during fiscal 1999 and 1998, respectively.
Investing activities resulted in a net use of cash of $2.9 billion and
$4.5 billion in fiscal 1999 and 1998, respectively, as the purchase of
additionalvehicle wholesale earning assets exceeded cash provided by the liquidationwhich historically have
experienced minimal credit losses.
Net credit losses as a percent of average earning assets. Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $1.9 billion and
$2.0 billion in fiscal 1999 and 1998, and net cash provided by financing
activities totaled $1.1 billion and $2.5 billion, during fiscal 1999 and 1998,
respectively. The Company believes that cash provided by operating and
investing activities as well as access to domestic and international capital
markets, the issuance of commercial paper and ECNs, and asset-backed
securitization transactions will provide sufficient liquidity to meet its
future funding requirements.

Year 2000 Date Conversion
- -------------------------
The year 2000 issue concerns the inability of computer systems and related
applications to function properly inassets for the year 2000 and beyond. As a wholly-
owned subsidiary of TMS, TMCC is participating in TMS' comprehensive action
plan to identify and address year 2000 issues. As part ofended
March 31, 2002 as compared with the year 2000
action plan, TMCC is identifying and evaluating potential year 2000 problems
and is implementing changes designed to yield year 2000 compliance in its
information technology systems, including mainframe, distributed and desktop
computer systems, networks and telecommunications (collectively, "IT systems")
and its non-information technology systems, including security and HVAC
systems, automated access readers and other machinery and equipment
(collectively, "embedded systems"). An additional component of the year 2000
action plan involves TMCC's communications with its external business partners
for the purpose of assessing and reducing the risk that TMCC's operations
could be adversely affected by such third parties' noncompliance with year
2000 issues.
Phases
The year 2000 action plan consists of four phases, some of which are being
conducted concurrently:
Inventory and Assessment: During this phase an inventory is taken of all
software and/or hardware components of significant applications or systems.
Software and hardware that is no longer in use or is planned to be replaced
before the year 2000, is identified and removed from the scope of the project.
Once the inventory is completed and verified, a preliminary determination of
whether the software or hardware is likely to have year 2000 date issues is
made either by manual review, vendor inquiry or by use of software tools
designed to search for date impacts. Once the assessment is completed, a
business critical prioritized plan is developed for remediation, testing, and
implementing the remediated hardware or software in the remaining phases.
Remediation: During this phase, software for which TMS or TMCC owns the
source code will be scanned and corrected. In most instances, TMCC will use
the "windowing" approach to fix source code which uses program logic to
correct year 2000 date issues. In some cases, it will be necessary to expand
the year field from two to four digits where the year 2000 date issue can not
be solved with the "windowing" method. Software for which TMS or TMCC does
not own the source code will be remediated by obtaining the year 2000 ready
version of the software from the vendor. For hardware and operating system
software, the year 2000 ready component willended March 31, 2001, also be obtained from the vendor.
Testing: The testing phase focuses mainly on remediated hardware and software
that supports business critical functions. Test plans and test cases are
expected to be developed and performed for each application. For software
modified by TMCC, tests will be designed to demonstrate that application
functionality has not changedincreased
as a result of the remediation.
Implementation: During this phase, the remediated hardwarerecent economic downturn, tiered pricing and software
components will be implementedfield
reorganization described above. Net credit losses as a percent of average
earning assets from September 2000 to March 2001 increased due to a
deterioration in economic conditions.
Delinquency and charge-off ratios typically fluctuate over time as a portfolio
matures. The information in the production environment. At this time,
policiestable above has not been adjusted to
eliminate the effect of the growth of TMCC's portfolio. During the year ended
March 31, 2002, TMCC's portfolio has experienced significantly increased
delinquency rates. Repossession and procedures will be implementedcredit loss experience has also increased
during the same period. TMCC believes that the increased delinquency
experience is a result of a number of factors including the recent national
economic downturn, a full fiscal year under the tiered pricing program, and
the effects of TMCC's field reorganization described previously. The
reorganization is ongoing and the transfer of certain functions from branches
to ensure that additional
modificationscustomer service centers is scheduled to remediated and tested hardware and/or software are year 2000
compliant.

Statecontinue during the summer of
Readiness
The Company has identified2002. TMCC is taking measures to minimize the following six areas for specific review and
remediation in connection with its year 2000 compliance efforts:
Critical Business Systems Applications: Includes distributed and mainframe
applications used in operations such as retail and lease financing, customer
account processing, collections, insurancedisruption of operations;
however, the restructuring of field operations and accounting systems.
TMCCeconomic downturn could
continue to adversely affect delinquencies and credit losses. Management has
completedincreased the inventoryallowance for credit losses by $56 million from March 31, 2001
to March 31, 2002 and remediationbelieves that it is adequate at March 31, 2002.
Insurance Losses and Loss Adjustment Expenses
- ---------------------------------------------
The liability for losses and loss expenses represents the accumulation of
estimates for reported losses and a provision for losses incurred but not
reported, including claim adjustment expenses. Loss reserve projections are
used to estimate loss reporting patterns, loss payment patterns and ultimate
claim costs. An inherent assumption in such projections is that historical
loss patterns can be used to predict future patterns with reasonable accuracy.
Because many variables can affect past and future loss patterns, the effect of
changes in such variables on the results of loss projections must be carefully

complex analysis and management judgment, which may significantly impact the

The Company's business critical applications have been tested and implemented back into
production.
Desktop Systems: Includes commercial off-the-shelf software as well as custom
developed applications. TMCC has completedis substantially dependent upon the inventory and assessment of
these systems and related software applications. Remediation and testing of
business critical custom developed systems is completed. Replacement of non-
compliant off-the-shelf software applications is expected by the end of fourth
quarter of calendar year 1999.
Technical Infrastructure: Includes mainframe, distributed and PC systems,
networks, and telecommunications. TMCC has completed the inventory and
assessment phases of its technical infrastructure. Testing and implementation
of business critical components has been completed.
Embedded Systems: Includes non-information technology systems described
above. TMCC has completed the inventory, assessment and implementation phases
for embedded systems at its owned facilities. With respect to embedded
systems located at facilities leased by TMCC, TMCC has completed the
assessment phase of contacting the property managers and/or owners regarding
the year 2000 status of the facilities. TMCC is establishing contingency
plans for coping with problems that may arise from embedded systems in leased
facilities that are not year 2000 compliant.
External Compliance: Includes financial institutions, dealers, suppliers,
trustees, underwriters and affiliates ("business partners"). Critical
business partners have been identified and prioritized. Letters and surveys
have been sent to business partners to assess the risk associated with those
business partners' failure to remediate their own year 2000 issues. TMCC has
completed the assessment phase of critical business partners. Testing of
business critical systems with external business partners will continue
through the end of calendar year 1999.
Non-Critical Systems: Includes systems and applications from the above-listed
areas which have been prioritized as non-critical. Such systems and
applications are being reviewed on an ongoing basis and will continue to be
assessed for year 2000 compliance through the end of calendar year 1999.

TMS has contacted its affiliates and others involved in the manufacturesale of Toyota and
Lexus vehicles in the United States. Changes in the volume of sales of such

The Company's finance receivables reflect a broad customer base of 1,512,000
accounts and are geographically diversified throughout the United States with
the exception of California and Texas. As of March 31, 2002, approximately 25%
and 8% of the Company's retail finance and lease receivables are concentrated
in California and Texas, respectively. The average retail customer account
outstanding was $19,000 as of March 31, 2002. Any material adverse changes to

Sales of Receivables and Securitization
- ---------------------------------------
Many finance companies and banks use securitization transactions to fund their
operations. The United States securitization market is well developed and
highly liquid. TMCC has been an active participant in the asset-backed
securitization market since 1993, securitizing both retail and lease finance
receivables. TMCC's current securitization program involves only retail
finance receivables.
Typical Securitization Structure
TMCC's securitization program involves selling discrete pools of finance
receivables or capital resources.interests in lease receivables to a wholly-owned bankruptcy
remote special purpose entity ("SPE"), which in turn sells the receivables to
a separate securitization trust in exchange for the proceeds from securities
issued by the trust. The securities issued by the trust, usually notes or
certificates of various maturities and interest rates, are secured by
collections on the sold receivables. These securities, commonly referred to as
asset-backed securities, are structured into senior and subordinated classes.
Generally, the senior classes have priority over the subordinated classes in
receiving collections from the sold receivables.
-30-
The SPE uses the proceeds received from the securitization trust to pay TMCC
for a portion of the purchase price for the receivables. The remainder is
typically represented by a promissory note from the SPE. The SPE also retains
an interest in the securitization trust. The retained interest may include
subordinated securities issued by the SPE, restricted cash held for the
benefit of the SPE and an interest-only strip. Most retained interests are
subordinated and serve as credit enhancements for the more senior securities
issued by the SPE to help ensure that adequate funds will be available to pay
investors that hold senior securities. The SPE uses the distributions it
receives from the securitization trust to repay the promissory note to TMCC.
However, the retained interests are held by the SPE as restricted assets and
are not available to satisfy any obligations of TMCC. The SPE's ability to
realize on its retained interests, and thus repay TMCC, depends on actual
credit losses and prepayment speeds on the sold receivables. To the extent
prepayment speeds are faster than expected and/or losses are greater than
expected, TMCC may be required to recognize a loss in respect of the retained
interests. The Company's retained interests in such receivables are included
in investments in marketable securities and are classified as available for
sale. TMCC retains servicing rights for sold receivables and receives a
servicing fee which is recognized over the remaining term of the related sold
retail receivables or interests in lease finance receivables.
Income earned from the sale of the receivables includes the gain or loss on
sale of finance receivables, as well as servicing fee income, the interest
income earned on retained securities and excess spread. The sale of
receivables has the effect of reducing financing revenues in the year the
receivables are sold as well as in future years. The net impact of
securitizations on annual earnings will include income effects in addition to
the reported gain or loss on the sale of receivables and will vary depending
on the amount, type of receivable and timing of our securitizations in the
current year and the preceding two to three year period as well as the
interest rate environment at the time the finance receivables were originated
and securitized. Pre-tax gains on sold retail receivables are recognized in
the period in which the sale occurs and are included in other income. The
determination of gains and the valuation of retained interests are based on an
allocation of the cost of the sold receivables between the portion sold and
the portion retained using the relative fair values on the date of sale. The
fair value of the retained interests is estimated by discounting expected cash
flows using management's best estimates and other key assumptions. The
selection of assumptions involves complex analysis and management judgment
which, when changed, may significantly impact the financial statements.
The increased use of securitization, coupled with the decline in interest
rates during fiscal years 2002 and 2001, led to higher reported gains on sold
receivables compared with prior years. In addition to the increase in gains
during fiscal years 2002 and 2001, interest earned on retained assets and
servicing fees also increased due to the increased use of securitization.
Various forms of credit enhancements also are provided to reduce the risk of
loss for senior classes of securities. These credit enhancements may include
the following or other forms designed for particular transactions:
Over-collateralization: The principal balance of receivables held by the
securitization trust exceeds the principal amount of asset-backed
securities issued. In addition, the receivables earn a higher rate of
interest than the rate due on the securities, which is referred to as
excess spread and is recorded as an interest-only strip and is included
in investments in marketable securities on the consolidated balance
sheet. As a result of over-collateralization, the application of resourcesSPE, pursuant to year 2000 compliance efforts, certain information technology projects

deferred. Such deferral is not expected to have a material adverse effectreceive collections on the Company's resultssold
receivables in excess of operations,amounts needed to pay interest and principal to
investors and servicing and other fees.
Cash reserve funds or restricted cash: A portion of the proceeds from the
sale of asset-backed securities are held in segregated reserve funds and
may be used to pay principal and interest to investors if collections on
the sold receivables are insufficient. Additional excess amounts from
collections on receivables held by the securitization trusts may be added
to such reserve funds during the term of the securitizations.
-31-
Subordinated securities: Generally these securities do not receive
payments of principal until more senior securities are paid, and may be
subordinated to payments of interest as well.
Revolving liquidity note: In lieu of a cash reserve fund to fund
shortfalls in principal and interest payments to security holders, TMCC
may undertake to advance funds in respect of certain shortfalls and
losses, taking a revolving liquidity note in return which allows the
securitization trust to receive draws from TMCC to fund shortfalls in
principal and interest payments due to investors up to a specified amount
and obligates the securitization trust to repay any amounts drawn with
interest accrued thereon. Repayments of principal and interest due
under the revolving liquidity note are subordinated to principal and
interest payments on the asset-backed securities and, in some
circumstances, to deposits into a reserve account. To the extent amounts
are insufficient to repay amounts outstanding under a revolving liquidity
note, TMCC may recognize a loss.
TMCC may enter into a swap agreement with the securitization trust under which
the securitization trust is typically obligated to pay TMCC amounts in U.S.
dollars in respect of interest and/or capital resources.
Year 2000 Risks
The most reasonably likely worst case scenario with respectprincipal due on specified dates in
exchange for receiving from TMCC amounts equal to the year 2000principal and interest
payable on the asset backed securities in the relevant currency. This
arrangement enables the securitization trust to issue securities payable in
currencies other than U.S. Dollars or bearing interest on a basis different
from that of the receivables held by the securitization trust.
TMCC typically uses an amortizing structure in its securitizations. In most
amortizing structures, holders of the asset-backed securities receive monthly
payments of principal and interest and therefore the outstanding principal
balance of the securities is repaid as principal collections on the failuresold
receivables are received. In some cases, TMCC's securitizations have involved
a modified structure in which principal payments are invested in demand notes
issued by TMCC instead of a business partner, particularly another financial
institution,being paid to be year 2000 compliant. Although TMCC does not currently
anticipate that it will experience significant business disruptionsinvestors. Upon the maturity of the
demand notes, the trust uses the proceeds to repay the principal of the
securities.
Sale Accounting Treatment
TMCC's securitizations have been treated as a result of year 2000 problems, there remains uncertaintysale for both legal and
accounting purposes, except for the 2001-C transaction which occurred in
this area. The
failure to achieve year 2000 compliance by energy and water utilities,
governmental agencies or other private or public suppliers of general
infrastructure could present substantial difficulties to TMCC's business
operations in the affected geographic areas. The inability of TMCC, its
external business partners or the public and private suppliers of general
infrastructure to identify and timely resolve year 2000 problems could result
in a significant adverse effect on the Company's operations and financial
results, including an inability to collect receivables, pay obligations,
process new business, raise capital and occupy facilities.
Year 2000 Contingency Plan
The Company is currently developing a contingency plan to address problems
resulting from year 2000 noncompliance. TMCC's contingency planning focuses
on identifying systems of TMCC and its business partners that TMCC believes
will be the most likely to experience year 2000 problems. The contingency
plan includes arrangements with back-up vendors, suppliers and other resources
to permit operations to be conducted temporarily on a manual basis. TMCC's
contingency plan is substantially completed, although revisions will be made
on an ongoing basis through the end of the calendar year as circumstances
change and additional information becomes available.
-22-
Euro Conversion
- ---------------
On January 1, 1999, eleven of the fifteen member countries of the European
Union (the "participating countries") established fixed conversion rates
between their existing sovereign currencies (the "legacy currencies") and the
euro. The participating countries agreed to adopt the euro as their common
legal currency on the date that the euro began trading on currency exchanges
andSeptember 2001. This securitization was available for non-cash transactions. The legacy currencies are
scheduled to remain legal tender in the participating countries as
denominations of the euro until January 1, 2002 (the "transition period").
During the transition period, public and private parties may pay for goods and
services using either the euro or the participating country's legacy currency.
Beginning January 1, 2002, the participating countries will issue new euro-
denominated bills and coins for use in cash transactions and legacy currencies
will be withdrawn from circulation, signifying the completion of the euro
conversion process.
As TMCC does not currently support Toyota finance operations in Europe, the
impact of the euro conversion is limited to issues in connection with raising
funds in the European capital markets. TMCC generally hedges all foreign
exchange exposure associated with its funding activities which limits its
exposure to movements in foreign exchange rates. In addition, payments in
foreign currencies owed by TMCC are made by its counterparties under
International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. ("ISDA") master
agreements governing swap transactions. Accordingly, TMCC did not need to
make any material changes to its systems to accommodate these types of
payments. TMCC has provided changes to its standard settlement instructions
to the extent necessary to reflect changes in account information and payment
instructions occurringtreated as a result of the introduction of the euro. TMCC does
not believe that it will experience significant issues relating to the
continuity of TMCC's contracts arising from the introduction of the euro. The
ISDA Master Agreements entered into by TMCC are generally governed by New York
law. New York has adopted legislation which prevents a party to a contract
from unilaterally breaking or changing its contractual obligationssale for legal purposes,
but treated as a result
ofsecured borrowing for accounting purposes since the
euro conversion. In addition, TMCC is a party to the EMU Protocol
published by ISDA designed to clarify the effects of certain issues
surrounding the introduction of the euro including continuity of contracts,
price source changes, payment netting and certain definitions.
The introduction of the euro has not had a material adverse effect on the
Company's operations or financial results. The Company plans to continue to
consider the euro in future funding strategies and will continue to fund in
all markets which are cost-effective.

Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the "Safe Harbor" Provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
The foregoing Business description and Management's Discussion and Analysis
contain various "forward looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which represent the Company's expectations or
beliefs concerning future events, including the following: that the Company
considers its employee relations to be good; that TMCC believes that industry-
wide record levels of incentives on new vehicles and large supply of late model
off-lease vehicles have put downward pressure on used car prices; that TMCC
anticipates continued growth in operating and administrative expenses
reflecting costs associated with portfolio growth and technology initiatives;
that the implementation of the expanded tiered pricing program may result in

international capital markets that are not issued under its MTN programs; that
the decline in the ratio of earnings to fixed charges has not affected its
ability to maintain liquidity or access to outside funding sources; that cash
provided by operating and investing activities as well as access to domestic
and international capital markets, the issuance of commercial paper and ECNs,
and asset-backed securitization transactions will provide sufficient liquidity
to meet the its future funding requirements; that the Company's action plan for
year 2000 compliance efforts will be carried out as described under Item 7 -

contracts arising from the introduction of the euro; that the Company does not
currently anticipate non-performance by any of its counterparties; that TMCC
believes that the new methodology will result in a more accurate measurement
of the interest rate risk in the portfolio.
-24-
The Company cautions that these statements are further qualified by important
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward looking statements, including, without limitation, the following:
decline in demand for Toyota and Lexus products; the effect of economic
conditions; a decline in the market acceptability of leasing; the effect of
competitive pricing on interest margins; increases in prevailing interest
rates; changes in pricing due to the appreciation of the Japanese yen against
the United States dollar; the effect of governmental actions; the effect of
competitive pressures on the used car market and residual values and the
continuation of the other factors causing an increase in vehicle returns and
disposition losses; the continuation of, and if continued, the level and type
of special programs offered by TMS; the ability of the Company to successfully
access the United States and international capital markets; the effects of any
rating agency actions; the monetary policies exercised by the European Central
Bank and other monetary authorities; unanticipated problems or delays in the
completion by the Company of its year 2000 action plan; failure of TMCC's
business partners to timely resolve their year 2000 issues ; the failure of the
Company to develop and implement an adequate contingency plan relating to year
2000 issues; increased costs associated with the Company's debt funding
efforts; with respect to the effects of litigation matters, the discovery of
facts not presently known to the Company or determination by judges, juries or
other finders of fact which do not accord with the Company's evaluation of the
possible liability from existing litigation; and the ability of the Company's
counterparties to perform under interest rate and cross currency swap
agreements. Results actually achieved thus may differ materially from expected
results included in these statements.
New Accounting Standards
In March 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." This SOP provides guidance
on accounting for certain costs in connection with obtaining or developing
computer software for internal use and requires that entities capitalize such
costs once certain criteria are met. The Company adopted SOP 98-1 as of
October 1, 1998. The effect on the Company's financial statementstrust was not material.
In June 1998, thestructured as a qualifying special purpose entity
("QSPE"). The receivables and debt issued were accounted for as remaining on
TMCC's balance sheet pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board
Statement No. 140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets
and Extinguishment of Liabilities" ("FASB"SFAS 140"), as amended.
Purpose of Securitization Program
TMCC securitizes its receivables because it allows the Company to access a
highly liquid and efficient market for securitization of financial assets
thereby providing the Company with an alternative source of funding, and
diversification of its investor base to enhance its liquidity position. For
the past three fiscal years, securitization averaged approximately 24% of
total annual funding. TMCC's use of SPEs in securitizations is consistent
with conventional practices in the securitization markets. The sale to the SPE
isolates the sold receivables from other creditors of TMCC for the benefit of
securitization investors and, assuming accounting requirements are satisfied,
the sold receivables are accounted for as no longer on the Company's balance
sheet. None of TMCC's officers, directors or employees holds any equity
interests in TMCC's SPEs or receives any direct or indirect compensation from
the SPEs. The SPEs do not own the Company's stock or stock of any of the
Company's affiliates and there are no contracts to do so.
-32-
The asset-backed securities are rated by at least two independent rating
agencies and sold in registered public offerings or in private transactions
exempt from registration under United States securities laws. The value of
the interests retained by the trust is exposed to losses in receivables and
such cash flows are available as credit support for senior securities. The
exposure of these interests exists until the associated securities are paid in
full. Investors in securitizations have no recourse to TMCC or its assets for
failure of obligations on the receivables or otherwise and have no ability to
require TMCC to repurchase their securities. TMCC does not guarantee any
securities issued SFASby the SPE.
Each SPE has limited purposes and may only be used to purchase and sell the
receivables. The individual securitization trusts have a limited duration and
generally terminate when investors holding the asset-backed securities have
been paid all amounts owed to them.
The sale of receivables through securitization is further discussed in Note 7
of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Derivatives and Hedging Activities
- ----------------------------------
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities",
effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999. ("SFAS No. 133133") requires companies to record
derivatives on the balance sheet as assets and liabilities, measured at fair
value. GainsFair value is determined using externally quoted market values where
possible. If externally quoted market rates are not available, the Company
uses external market rates in conjunction with a customized market valuation
system to determine the fair value of the Company's derivatives. Derivative
assets and losses resulting fromliabilities include interest rate swaps, indexed note swap
agreements, cross currency interest rate swap agreements and option-based
products. The accounting for the gain or loss due to changes in the values of those derivatives would be accounted for as components of
comprehensive income depending on the usefair value of
the hedged item depends on whether the relationship between the hedged item and
the derivative and whether itinstrument qualifies for hedge accounting. In June 1999,treatment. If the FASB issuedrelationship
between the hedged item and the derivative instrument does not qualify as a
hedge, the gains or losses are reported in earnings when they occur. However,
if the relationship between the hedged item and the derivative instrument
qualifies as a hedge, the accounting varies based on the type of risk being
hedged. The types of instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting
include, but are not limited to, U.S. basis swap instruments, and currency
structured transactions including inverse floating rate instruments.
Derivatives are recognized in the balance sheet at their fair value. On the
date that the Company enters into a derivative contract, it designates the
derivative as a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or a
foreign-currency fair-value hedge (a "foreign currency hedge"). Changes in the
fair value of a derivative that is highly effective as - and that is designated
and qualifies as - a fair-value hedge or foreign-currency hedge, along with
changes in fair value of the hedged assets or liabilities that are attributable
to the hedged risk, are recorded in current-period earnings. Additional
information concerning the SFAS No. 137,
"Accounting for Derivative Instruments133 requirements is disclosed in Note 8 -
Derivatives and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective DateNotes to Consolidated Financial
Statements and Note 2 - Summary of FASBSignificant Accounting Policies - Derivative
Financial Instruments.
-33-
For the year ended March 31, 2002, the Company recognized a gain of
$38 million (reported as SFAS 133 fair value adjustments in the Consolidated
Statement No. 133",of Income). The net adjustment reflects a gain of $43 million in
the fair market value of TMCC's portfolio of option-based products and certain
interest rate swaps, offset by a $5 million decrease related to the
ineffective portion of TMCC's fair value hedges. The increase in the fair
market value of TMCC's option-based products is primarily due to higher market
interest rates. Various derivative instruments, such as option-based products
which defershedge interest rate risk from an economic perspective, and which the

in Non-Hedging Activities below. For fair value hedging relationships, the

consolidated financial statements. The Company plans to adopt SFAS No. 133 by
October 1, 2000, as required.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
TMCC usesutilizes a variety of
interest rate and currency derivative financial instruments to managemitigate its
economic exposure to fluctuations caused by volatility in interest rate and
currency exchange exposures. The
derivative instruments used include cross currency and interest rate swaps,
indexed note swaps and option-based products.rates. TMCC does not use any of these instruments for trading
purposes.
Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities
Derivatives are recognized in the balance sheet at their fair value. On the
date that the Company enters into a derivative contract, it designates the
derivative as a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or a
foreign-currency fair-value hedge (a "foreign currency hedge"). Changes in the
fair value of a derivative that is highly effective as - and that is designated
and qualifies as - a fair-value hedge or foreign-currency hedge, along with
changes in fair value of the hedged assets or liabilities that are attributable
to the hedged risk, are recorded in current-period earnings.
The total notional amountsCompany occasionally purchases a financial instrument in which a derivative
instrument is "embedded." Upon purchasing the financial instrument, the
Company assesses whether the economic characteristics of TMCC'sthe embedded
derivative are clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of
the remaining component of the financial instrument (i.e. host contract) and
whether a separate, non-embedded instrument with the same terms as the embedded
instrument would meet the definition of a derivative instrument. When it is
determined that (1) the embedded derivative possesses economic characteristics
that are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the
host contract and (2) a separate, stand-alone instrument with the same terms
would qualify as a derivative instrument, the embedded derivative is separated
from the host contract, carried at fair value, and designated as either (1) a
fair-value hedge or (2) non-hedging derivative instrument. However, if the
entire contract were to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value
reported in current earnings, or if the Company could not reliably identify and
measure the embedded derivative for purposes of separating that derivative from
its host contract, the entire contract would be carried on the balance sheet at
fair value and not be designated as a hedging instrument.
The Company formally documents relationships between hedging instruments and
hedged items, as well as its risk-management and strategy for undertaking
various hedge transactions. This process includes linking derivatives that are
designated as fair-value hedges to specific liabilities on the balance sheet.
The Company also assesses whether the derivatives that are used in hedging
transactions have been highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value
of hedged items and whether those derivatives may be expected to remain highly
effective in future periods. When it is determined that a derivative is not
(or has ceased to be) highly effective as a hedge, the Company discontinues
hedge accounting prospectively, as discussed below.
The Company will discontinue hedge accounting prospectively when (1) it
determines that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in
the fair value of a hedged item; (2) the derivative expires or is sold,
terminated, or exercised; or (3) management determines that designating the
derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate.
-34-
When hedge accounting is discontinued due to the Company's determination that
the derivative no longer qualifies as an effective fair-value hedge, the
Company will continue to carry the derivative on the balance sheet at September 30, 1999its fair
value but cease to adjust the hedged liability for changes in fair value. In a
situation in which hedge accounting is discontinued and 1998 were
$26.0 billion and $23.4 billion, respectively.the derivative remains
outstanding, the Company will carry the derivative at its fair value on the
balance sheet, recognizing changes in the fair value in current-period
earnings.
Fair-Value Hedges
The notional amounts ofCompany enters into interest rate andswaps, indexed note swap agreements and
option-based products do not
represent amounts exchanged by the parties and, thus, are not a measure of the
Company's exposure through its use of derivatives. The only market rate risk
related to TMCC's portfolio is interest rate risk as foreign currency risks are
entirely hedged through cross currency interest rate swap agreements.agreements to convert its fixed-rate debt to
variable-rate debt, a portion of which is covered by option-based products.
(Refer to non-hedging activities below for a discussion of option-based
products.)
TMCC uses interest rate swap agreements in managing its exposure to interest
rate fluctuations. Interest rate swap agreements are executed as an integral
part of specific debt transactions or on a portfolio basis. TMCC's interest
rate swap agreements involve agreements to pay fixed and receive a floating
rate, or receive fixed and pay a floating rate, at specified intervals,
calculated on an agreed-upon notional amount. Interest rate swap agreements
may also involve basis swap contracts which are agreements to exchange the
difference between certain floating interest amounts, such as the net payment
based on the commercial paper rate and the London Interbank Offered Rate
("LIBOR"), calculated on an agreed-upon notional amount.
TMCC also uses option-based products in managing its exposure to interest rate
fluctuations. Option-based products are executed on a portfolio basis and
consist primarily of purchased interest rate cap agreements and to a lesser
extent corridor agreements. Option-based products are agreements, which either
grant TMCC the right to receive or require TMCC to make payments at specified
interest rate levels.
TMCC uses indexed note swap agreements in managing its exposure in connection
with debt instruments whose interest rate and/or principal redemption amounts
are derived from other underlying instruments.indices. Indexed note swap agreements
involve agreements to receive interest and/or principal amounts associated
with the indexed notes, denominated in either U.S. dollars or a foreign
currency, and to pay fixed or floating rates on fixed U.S. dollar liabilities.
TMCC uses cross currency interest rate swap agreements to entirely hedge
exposure to exchange rate fluctuations on principal and interest payments for
borrowings denominated in foreign currencies.currencies and for managing its exposure to
interest rate fluctuations. Notes and loans payable issued in foreign
currencies are hedged by concurrently executed cross currency interest rate
swap agreements which involve the exchange of foreign currency principal and
interest obligations for U.S. dollar obligations at agreed-upon currency
exchange and interest rates.
Derivative instruments used by TMCC involve, to varying degrees, elements of
credit risk in the event a counterparty should default and market risk as the
instruments are subject to rate and price fluctuations. Credit risk is
managed through the use of credit standard guidelines, counterparty
diversification, monitoring of counterparty financial condition and master
netting agreements in place with all derivative counterparties. Credit
exposure of derivative instruments is discussed further under Item 7A. -
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Non-Hedging Activities
Option-based products are executed on a portfolio basis and consist primarily
of purchased interest rate cap agreements, interest rate swaps and, to a lesser
extent, foreign exchange forward contract agreements. Option-based products
are agreements which either grant TMCC the right to receive, or require TMCC to
make payments at, specified interest rate levels. Option-based products are
used to hedge interest rate risk from an economic perspective on TMCC's
portfolio of pay-variable receive-fixed interest rate swaps.
The Company uses this strategy to minimize its exposure to volatility in LIBOR
and for overall asset and liability management purposes. These products are
not linked to specific assets and liabilities that appear on the balance sheet
and therefore, do not qualify for hedge accounting.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company, in the normal course of business, is an active debt issuer and
requires a substantial amount of funding to support the growth in earning
assets. The objective of its liquidity management is to ensure the Company has
the ability to maintain access to the capital markets to meet its obligations
and other commitments on a timely and cost-effective basis. Significant
reliance is placed on the Company's ability to obtain debt and asset-backed
securitization funding in the capital markets in addition to funding provided
by earning asset liquidations and cash provided by operating activities. Debt
issuances have generally been in the form of commercial paper, and domestic and
euro medium-term notes ("MTNs") and bonds.
Commercial paper issuances are used to meet short-term funding needs.
Commercial paper outstanding under TMCC's commercial paper program ranged from
approximately $3.0 billion to $5.7 billion during the year ended March 31,
2002, with an average outstanding balance of $4.4 billion.
For additional liquidity purposes, TMCC maintains syndicated bank credit
facilities with certain banks which aggregated $3.5 billion at March 31, 2002.
No loans were outstanding under any of these bank credit facilities as of
March 31, 2002. TMCC maintains additional committed and uncommitted lines of
credit for $40 million and $100 million, respectively. TMCC also maintains
uncommitted, unsecured lines of credit with banks totaling $61 million as of
March 31, 2002. At March 31, 2002 TMCC had issued approximately $0.5 million
in letters of credit in connection with these uncommitted, unsecured lines of
credit.
Long-term funding requirements are met through the issuance of a variety of
debt securities underwritten in both the United States and international
capital markets. Domestic and euro MTNs and bonds have provided TMCC with
significant sources of funding. During the year ended March 31, 2002, TMCC
issued approximately $8.8 billion of domestic and euro MTNs and bonds all of
which except for $.5 billion had original maturities of one year or more.
The original maturities of all MTNs and bonds outstanding at March 31, 2002
ranged from one year to ten years. As of March 31, 2002, TMCC had total MTNs
and bonds outstanding of $21.0 billion, of which $7.0 billion was denominated
in foreign currencies.
TMCC anticipates continued use of MTNs and bonds in both the United States and
international capital markets. To provide for the issuance of MTNs and other
debt securities in the U.S. capital market, the Company maintains a shelf
registration with the SEC under which approximately $10.0 billion was available
for issuance at April 30, 2002. Under TMCC's euro MTN program, which provides
for the issuance of debt securities in the international capital market, the
maximum aggregate principal amount authorized to be outstanding at any time is
$16.0 billion, of which $4.6 billion was available for issuance at April 30,
2002. The United States and euro MTN programs may be expanded from time to
time to allow for the continued use of these sources of funding. In addition,
TMCC may issue bonds in the domestic and international capital markets that are
not issued under its MTN programs.
Additionally, TMCC uses its asset-backed securitization programs to generate
funds for investment in earning assets as described in the above section "Sales
of Receivables and Securitization" and in Note 7 - Sale of Receivables and
Securitization to the Consolidated Financial Statements. TMCC maintains a shelf
registration statement with the SEC relating to the issuance of asset-backed
notes secured by, and certificates representing interests, in retail
receivables. During the year ended March 31, 2002, TMCC sold retail
receivables totaling $4.6 billion in connection with securities issued under
the shelf registration statement. As of April 30, 2002, $3.1 billion remained
available for issuance under the registration statement. Subsequent to that
date, $2.0 billion remained available for issuance under the registration
statement after a sale of retail finance receivables in May 2002.
-36-
Dividends are declared and paid by TMCC as determined by its Board of
Directors. TMCC's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $4 million
that was paid to TFSA during fiscal 2002. No dividends had previously been
declared or paid.
TMCC's ratio of earnings to fixed charges was 1.39, 1.10, 1.13, 1.24, 1.25 and
1.31 for the year ended March 31, 2002, the six months ended March 31, 2001 and
for the years ended September 30, 2000, 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The
increase in the ratio during the year ended March 31, 2002 was primarily due to
an increase in finance margin resulting from lower interest rates and higher
earning asset amounts funded.
Cash flows provided by operating, investing and financing activities have been
used primarily to support earning asset growth. Cash provided by the
liquidation and sale of earning assets, totaling $19.6 billion, $14.7 billion,
$23.0 billion and $21.0 billion during the year ended March 31, 2002, the six
months ended March 31, 2001 and the years ended September 30, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, was used to purchase additional investments in operating leases
and finance receivables, totaling $25.7 billion, $15.9 billion, $28.2 billion
and $23.9 billion during the year ended March 31, 2002, the six months ended
March 31, 2001 and the years ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.
Investing activities resulted in a net use of cash of $6.2 billion, $1.5
billion, $5.1 billion and $3.3 billion for the year ended March 31, 2002, the
six months ended March 31, 2001 and the years ended September 30, 2000 and
1999, respectively, as the purchase of additional earning assets exceeded cash
provided by the liquidation of earning assets. Net cash provided by operating
activities totaled $2.1 billion, $.7 billion, $1.9 billion and $2.3 billion for
the year ended March 31, 2002, the six months ended March 31, 2001 and the
years ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and net cash provided by
financing activities totaled $4.6 billion, $0.9 billion, $3.1 billion and $1.1
billion, during the year ended March 31, 2002, the six months ended March 31,
2001 and the years ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The
Company believes that cash provided by operating and investing activities as
well as access to domestic and international capital markets, the issuance of
commercial paper, and asset-backed securitization transactions will provide
sufficient liquidity to meet its future funding requirements.
Contractual Obligations and Credit-Related Commitments
As disclosed in the footnotes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the
Company has certain obligations to make future payments under contracts and
credit-related financial instruments and commitments. At March 31, 2002,
aggregate contractual obligations and credit-related commitments are summarized
as follows:

(a) The securitization trusts may draw a total of $15 million from TMCC under the revolving
liquidity notes over the life of the asset-backed securities transactions.
(b) Amounts represent TMCC's guarantee of debt or other contractual commitments entered into by
TCA, TSV and BTB. Allocation to fiscal years is based on maturity dates specified in
underlying contractual agreements.
-37-
TMCC has also guaranteed the obligations of TMIS relating to vehicle service
insurance agreements issued in four states (Alabama, Illinois, New York and
Virginia). These guarantees have been given without regard to any security,
but are limited to the duration of the underlying insurance coverages up to a
maximum of the original manufacturer's suggested retail price on the vehicles.
As of March 31, 2002, TMCC has not historically, and does not expect, to pay
any amounts under this guarantee.
TMCC also maintains revolving credit facilities with dealers. These revolving
credit facilities may be used for business acquisitions, facilities
refurbishment, real estate purchases and working capital requirements. These
financings are backed by corporate or individual guarantees from or on behalf
of the participating dealers. The revolving credit facilities totaled $1,524
million of which $553 million was outstanding as of March 31, 2002.
Off-Balance Sheet Activities
TMCC's securitization program involves selling discrete pools of finance
receivables or interests in lease receivables to wholly-owned bankruptcy
remote SPEs, which in turn sell the receivables to separate securitization
trusts in exchange for the proceeds from securities issued by the trust. The
securities issued by the trust, usually notes or certificates of various
maturities and interest rates, are secured by collections on the sold
receivables. These securities, commonly referred to as asset-backed
securities, are structured into senior and subordinated classes. Generally,
the senior classes have priority over the subordinated classes in receiving
collections from the sold receivables.
As of March 31, 2002, outstanding debt from asset-backed securitizations and
notes payable related to securitized finance receivables structured as
collateralized borrowings totaled $4.3 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively.
On any payment date, the priority of payments made from available collections
and amounts withdrawn from existing reserve funds or revolving liquidity
notes, are as follows: servicing fee, noteholder interest, allocation of
principal, reserve fund account deposit, and finally, excess amounts.
Therefore, the interests of noteholders are subordinate to the servicer, but
have priority over any deposits in a reserve fund, any draws against existing
revolving liquidity notes, or any excess amounts. In addition, in most cases,
noteholders holding senior classes of notes are paid prior to any existing
subordinate class (some transactions are structured so that the subordinate
tranche is released pro rata with certain senior tranches).
TMCC may enter into swap agreements with the securitization trusts so that
interest rate exposure remains with TMCC, and not the securitization trusts.
This exposure may or may not be mitigated by other swap arrangements entered
into by TMCC, and this is determined by TMCC management. The Company's general
exposure every month, is the notional balance of the security multiplied by
the rate differential. However, in the case of a default by the
securitization trust, the Company's maximum exposure would be the interest due
based on the outstanding notional value of underlying securities paid at the
rate inherent in the swap agreement.
-38-
For the year ended March 31, 2002, the following table summarizes certain cash
flows received from and paid to the securitization trusts:
Year ended

Reimbursements of maturity advances (a)..... $ 69.0 n/a
(a) Maturity advances represent the difference between the aggregate amount of
principal collected and available to pay principal of the Certificates,
and the outstanding balance of the Certificates due on targeted maturity
dates. The Company was reimbursed for prior period maturity advances from
principal collections in subsequent months.
(b) Amount represents optional redemptions associated with the maturity of
lease securitizations.
During the year ended March 31, 2002 and the six months ended March 31, 2001,
servicing fee assets in the amounts of $15 million and $17 million, were
recorded in conjunction with retail loan securitizations executed. The
amortized balance of servicing fee assets at March 31, 2002 and 2001, totaled
approximately $17 million and $18 million.

Cautionary Statement for Purposes of the "Safe Harbor" Provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
This report contains "forward looking statements" within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which include estimates,
projections and statements of the Company's beliefs concerning future events,
business plans, objectives, expected operating results, and the assumptions
upon which those statements are based. Forward looking statements include,
without limitation, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or
imply future results, performance or achievements, and are typically
identified with words such as "believe," "anticipate," "expect," "estimate,"
"project," "should," "intend," "will," "may" or words or phrases of similar
meaning. The Company cautions that the forward looking statements involve
known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may
cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward looking
statements, including, without limitation, the following: decline in demand
for Toyota and Lexus products; the effect of economic conditions; the effects
of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks; the effect of the current
political, economic and regulatory risk in Argentina; a decline in the market
acceptability of leasing; the effect of competitive pricing on interest
margins; changes in pricing due to the appreciation of the Japanese yen against
the United States dollar; the effect of governmental actions; the effect of
competitive pressures on the used car market and residual values and the
continuation of the other factors causing an increase in vehicle returns and
disposition losses; the continuation of, and if continued, the level and type
of special programs offered by TMS; the ability of the Company to successfully
access the United States and international capital markets; the effects of any
rating agency actions; increases in market interest rates; the monetary
policies exercised by the European Central Bank and other monetary authorities;
increased costs associated with the Company's debt funding or restructuring
efforts; with respect to the effects of litigation matters, the discovery of
facts not presently known to the Company or determination by judges, juries or
other finders of fact which do not accord with the Company's evaluation of the
possible liability from existing litigation; and the ability of the Company's
counterparties to perform under interest rate and cross currency swap
agreements. The risks included here are not exhaustive. New risk factors
emerge from time to time and it is not possible for the Company to predict all
such risk factors, nor to assess the impact such risk factors might have on
the Company's business or the extent to which any factor or combination of
factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in
any forward looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties,
investors should not place undue reliance on forward looking statements as a
prediction of actual results. The Company will not update the forward looking
statements to reflect actual results or changes in the factors affecting the
forward looking statements.

New Accounting Standards
- ------------------------
In June 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS No. 143"). This
Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations
associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated
asset retirement costs and it applies to legal obligations associated with the
retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction,
development and (or) the normal operation of a long-lived asset, except for
certain obligations of lessees. Under SFAS No. 143, a company is required to
1) record an existing legal obligation associated with the retirement of a
tangible long-lived asset as a liability when incurred and the amount of the
liability be initially measured at fair value, 2) recognize subsequent changes
in the liability that result from (a) the passage of time and (b) revisions in
either the timing or amount of estimated cash flows and 3) upon initially
recognizing a liability for an asset retirement obligation, an entity shall
capitalize the cost by recognizing an increase in the carrying amount of the
related long-lived asset. SFAS No. 143 is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002, with earlier application
encouraged. Management does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 143
will have a material impact on the financial statements.
In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets"
("SFAS No. 144"). The objectives of SFAS 144 are to address significant
issues relating to the implementation of FASB Statement No. 121 "Accounting
for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be
Disposed Of" ("SFAS No. 121") and to develop a single accounting model based
on the framework established in SFAS No. 121 for long-lived assets to be
disposed of by sale whether previously held and used or newly acquired. Even
though SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, it retains the fundamental
provisions of SFAS No. 121 for (1) the recognition and measurement of the
impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used and (2) the measurement of
long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale. SFAS No. 144 supersedes the
accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board No. 30
"Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a
Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring
Events and Transactions" ("APB 30") for segments of a business to be disposed
of. However, SFAS 144 retains APB 30's requirement that entities report
discontinued operations separately from continuing operations and extends that
reporting requirement to "a component of an entity" that either has been
disposed of (by sale, abandonment, or in a distribution to owners) or is
classified as "held for sale". SFAS No. 144 also amends the guidance of
Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements" ("ARB
51") to eliminate the exception to consolidation for a temporarily controlled
subsidiary. The provisions of SFAS No. 144 are effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and
interim periods within those fiscal years. Management of the Company
anticipates that the adoption of SFAS No. 144 will not have a material effect
on the Company's earnings or financial position.
-41-
In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB
Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections" ("SFAS No. 145"). The objectives
of SFAS No. 145 are to eliminate an inconsistency between the required
accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for
certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to
sale-leaseback transactions. The Statement also amends other existing
authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify
meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions. The
provisions of this Statement related to the rescission of Statement 4 will be
applied in fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The provisions related
to Statement 13 will be effective for transactions occurring after
May 15, 2002. All other provisions of the Statement will be effective for
financial statements issued on or after May 15, 2002. Management of the
Company anticipates that the adoption of SFAS No. 145 will not have a material
effect on the Company's earnings or financial position.
-42-
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk is defined as the sensitivity of income and capital to changes in
interest rates, foreign exchange rates and other relevant market rates or
prices. The primary market risk to which TMCC is exposed is interest rate risk
with particular exposure to volatility in LIBOR. Substantially all of our
interest rate risk arises from instruments, positions and transactions entered
into for purposes other than trading. As discussed more fully in Item 7.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, TMCC uses a variety of interest rate and currency derivative
financial instruments to manage interest rate and currency exchange exposures.
The total notional amounts of TMCC's derivative financial instruments at March
31, 2002 and 2001 were $43.7 billion and $37.3 billion, respectively.
Derivative financial instruments used by TMCC involve, to varying degrees,
elements of credit risk in the event a counterparty should default and market
risk as the instruments are subject to rate and price fluctuations. Credit
risk is managed through the use of credit standard guidelines, counterparty
diversification, monitoring of counterparty financial condition and master
netting agreements in place with all derivative counterparties. Credit exposure
of derivative financial instruments is represented by the fair value of
contracts with a positive fair value at September 30, 1999March 31, 2002 reduced by the effects
of master netting agreements. The credit exposure of TMCC's derivative
financial instruments at September 30, 1999March 31, 2002 was $88$314 million on an aggregate
notional amount of $26.0$43.7 billion. Additionally, at September 30, 1999,March 31, 2002,
approximately 89%100% of TMCC's derivative financial instruments, based on
notional amounts, were with commercial banks and investment banking firms
assigned investment grade ratings of "AA""A" or better by national rating agencies.
TMCC does not currently anticipate non-performance by any of its counterparties
and has no reserves related to non-performance as of September 30, 1999;March 31, 2002. TMCC has
not experienced any counterparty default during the three yearsyear ended March 31, 2002,
the six months ended March 31, 2001 or the year ended September 30, 1999.
-26-
Changes in interest rates may impact TMCC's future weighted average interest
rate on outstanding debt as a result of floating rate liabilities. As of
September 30, 1999, an interest rate increase of 1% (100 basis points) would
raise TMCC's weighted average interest rate, including the effects of interest
rate swap agreements and option-based products, by .29%, from 5.44% to an
estimated 5.73%. Conversely, an interest rate decrease of 1% (100 basis
points) would lower TMCC's weighted average interest rate, including the
effects of interest rate swap agreements and option-based products, by .49%,
from 5.44% to an estimated 4.95% at September 30, 1999. TMCC's interest rate
exposure primarily results from changes in U.S. commercial paper rates and U.S.
LIBOR.2000.
TMCC uses a value-at-risk methodology, in connection with other management
tools, to assess and manage the interest rate risk of aggregated loan and lease
assets and financial liabilities, including interest rate derivatives and
option-based products. Value-at-risk represents the potential losses in fair
value for a portfolio from adverse changes in market factors for a specified
period of time and likelihood of occurrence (i.e. level of confidence).
TMCC's value-at-risk methodology incorporates the impact from adverse changes
in market interest rates but does not incorporate any impact from other market
changes, such as foreign currency exchange rates or commodity prices, which do
not affect the value of TMCC's portfolio. The value-at-risk methodology
excludes changes in fair values related to investments in marketable securities
and equipment financing as these amounts are not significant.
During the quarter ended March 31, 1999, TMCC changed itssignificant to TMCC's total
portfolio.
The value-at-risk methodology. The new methodology makes no assumptions about the distribution
of interest rates; instead it relies on actual interest rate data. Fouruses seven years of historical interest rate
data is used to build a database of prediction errors in forward rates for a one month
holding period. These prediction errors are then applied randomly to current
forward rates through a Monte Carlo process to simulate 500 potential future
yield curves. The portfolio is then re-priced with these curves to develop a
distribution of future portfolio values. Options in the portfolio are priced
with current market implied volatilities and the simulated yield curves using
the Black Scholes method. The lowest portfolio value at the 95% confidence
interval is compared with the current portfolio value to derive the value-at-riskvalue-at-
risk number.
The previous
method used two years of historical interest rate volatilities, simulated only
100 potential future yield curves using a stratified random sampling
methodology and assumed that changes in interest rates are lognormally
distributed. Since the new model makes no assumptions about the distribution
of interest rates but instead uses the actual historical distribution of
interest rates along with an increased number of simulations, TMCC believes
that the new methodology will result in a more accurate measurement of the
interest rate risk in the portfolio.

The value-at-risk and the average value-at-risk of TMCC's portfolio as of the
year ended March 31, 2002 and for the fiscal yearssix months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998,March 31, 2001, measured as
the potential 30 day loss in fair value from assumed adverse changes in
interest rates are as follows:

TMCC's calculated value-at-risk exposure represents an estimate of reasonably
possible net losses that would be recognized on its portfolio of financial
instruments assuming hypothetical movements in future market rates and is not
necessarily indicative of actual results which may occur. It does not
represent the maximum possible loss nor any expected loss that may occur, since
actual future gains and losses will differ from those estimated, based upon
actual fluctuations in market rates, operating exposures, and the timing
thereof, and changes in the composition of TMCC's portfolio of financial
instruments during the year. The increasedecrease in the mean portfolio value from
March 31, 2001 to March 31, 2002 primarily reflects the change in asset yields
in a lower rate environment coupled with a change in the early termination

subsidiary of Toyota Financial Services Americas Corporation ("TFSA" or the
"Parent"), a holding company owned 100% by Toyota Financial Services
Corporation ("TFSC"). TFSC, in turn, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Toyota
Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. ("TMS" or the
"Parent"). TMS is primarily engaged in the wholesale distribution of
automobiles, trucks, industrial equipment and related replacement parts and
accessories throughout the United States (excluding Hawaii). Substantially all
of TMS's products are purchased from Toyota Motor Corporation ("TMC") or. TFSC was incorporated in July 2000 and its
affiliates.corporation headquarters is located in Nagoya, Japan. The purpose of TFSC is
to control and manage Toyota's finance operations worldwide.
TMCC has foureight wholly-owned subsidiaries, Toyota Motor Insurance Services, Inc.
("TMIS"), Toyota Motor Credit Receivables Corporation ("TMCRC"), Toyota Auto
Finance Receivables LLC ("TAFR"), Toyota Leasing, Inc. ("TLI") and, Toyota Credit
de Puerto Rico Corporation ("TCPR"), Toyota Services de Mexico, S.A. de C.V.
("TSM"), TFSM Servicios de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. ("TFSM") and Toyota Services de
Venezuela, C.A. ("TSV"). TMCC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries are
collectively referred to as the "Company". Effective July 1, 1998, Toyota Motor Insurance Company, Toyota
Motor Insurance Corporation of Vermont and Toyota Motor Life Insurance Company
which had been wholly-owned subsidiaries of TMCC became wholly-owned
subsidiaries of TMIS. The insurance subsidiaries provideTMIS provides certain insurance
services along with certain insurance and contractual coverages in connection
with the sale and lease of vehicles. In addition, the insurance subsidiaries
insure and reinsure certain TMSToyota Motor Sales, USA, Inc. ("TMS") and TMCC
risks. TMCRC aand TAFR, both limited purpose subsidiary, operatessubsidiaries, operate primarily to
acquire retail finance receivables from TMCC for the purpose of securitizing
such receivables. TLI, a limited purpose subsidiary, operates primarily to
acquire lease finance receivables from TMCC for the purpose of securitizing
such leases. TCPR provides retail and wholesale financing and certain other
financial services to authorized Toyota and Lexus vehicle dealers and their
customers in Puerto Rico. TSM and TFSM provide financing for the import of
vehicles into Mexico. TSV provides financing for distributor sales into
Venezuela.
Toyota Credit Argentina, S.A. ("TCA") was incorporated in September 1998 and
commenced business operations in December 1998. TCA provides retail and wholesale financing
to authorized Toyota vehicle dealers and their customers in Argentina. TMCC
owns a 33% interest in TCA. In February 2002, the Argentine government
established measures to re-denominate the entire Argentine economy into pesos
and has permitted the peso to float freely against other global currencies.
This re-denomination policy adversely affected TCA's financial condition and
its ability to fully satisfy its offshore dollar loans. Consequently in the
third quarter of fiscal 2002, TMCC included a charge against income of $31
million to write-off its $5 million investment in TCA is owned 85% by TMC and 15% by TMCC. Asto establish a
reserve of September 30,
1999$26 million relating to TMCC's $40 million guaranty of TCA's
offshore outstanding debt. TMCC's investment in TCA totaled $2 million and is accounted for using the
costequity method. TMCC will continue to monitor the situation. Banco Toyota do
Brasil ("BTB") was incorporated in January 1999 and commenced
business operations in June 1999. BTB provides retail and lease financing to authorized Toyota vehicle
dealers and their customers in Brazil. BTB is owned 85% by TMC and 15% by TMCC. As of September 30, 1999 TMCC's
investment in BTB
totaled $4 million and is accounted for using the cost method. The remaining
interests in TCA and BTB are owned by TFSC, TMCC's indirect parent.
The Company's earnings are primarily impacted by the level of average earning
assets, comprised primarily of investments in finance receivables and operating
leases, and asset yields as well as outstanding borrowings and the cost of
funds. The Company's business is substantially dependent upon the sale of
Toyota and Lexus vehicles in the United States. Changes in the volume of sales
of such vehicles resulting from governmental action, changes in consumer
demand, changes in pricing of imported units due to currency fluctuations, or
other events could impact the level of finance and insurance operations of the
Company.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
- ---------------------------------------------------
Use of Estimates
- ----------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Change in Fiscal Year
- ---------------------
On June 6, 2000, the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors of TMCC
approved a change in TMCC's year-end from September 30 to March 31. The six-
month transition period from October 1, 2000 through March 31, 2001 precedes
the start of the new fiscal year and was reported in the Form 10-K/T filed for
the period ended March 31, 2001. The transition period is also included in
this form 10-K.
Principles of Consolidation
- ---------------------------
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TMCC and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and
balances have been eliminated.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
- -------------------------
Cash equivalents, consisting primarily of money market instruments and debt
securities, represent highly liquid investments with original maturities of
three months or less.
Investments in Marketable Securities
- ------------------------------------
Investments in marketable securities consist of debt and equity securities.
Debt securities designated as held-to-maturity are carried at amortized cost
and are reduced to net realizable value for other than temporary declines in
market value. Debt and equity securities designated as available-for-sale are
carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses included in accumulated
other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Realized investment gains
and losses, which are determined on the specific identification method, are
reflected in income.
Investments in Operating Leases
- -------------------------------
Investments in operating leases are recorded at cost and depreciated on a
straight-line basis, over the lease terms to the estimated residual value.
Revenue from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the
lease terms.term.
Finance Receivables

Finance receivables are recorded at the present value of the related future
cash flows.flows including residual values for finance leases. Revenue associated
with finance receivables is recognized on a level-yield basis over the contract

- ---------------------------------------------------
Allowance for Credit Losses
- ---------------------------
AllowancesTMCC maintains allowances to cover estimated losses on its present owned
portfolio resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments.
The allowance for credit losses areis evaluated periodically,quarterly, considering historical
trends of repossession, charge-offs, recoveries and credit losses. In
addition, portfolio credit quality, and current and projected economic and
market conditions, are monitored and taken into account. After carefully
evaluating these factors, management develops several loss experiencescenarios and
other factors, andreviews allowance levels to ensure reserves are maintained in amountsadequate to cover the probable
range of losses. The allowance for credit losses is considered by management
to be appropriate in relation to receivables outstanding andthe expected future loss experience.experience on the present
owned portfolio. Losses are charged to the allowance for
credit losses when it has been
determined that payments will not be received and collateral cannot be
recovered or the related collateral is repossessed and anysold. Any shortfall
between proceeds received and the carrying cost of repossessed collateral is
charged to the allowance. Recoveries are credited to the allowance for credit
losses. The allowance for credit losses and related provision expense are
included in finance receivables, net and investment in operating leases, net in
the Consolidated Balance Sheet and total expenses in the Consolidated Statement
of Income, respectively.
Allowance for Residual Value Losses
- -----------------------------------
Allowances forThe Company also maintains an allowance to cover estimated vehicle disposition
losses related to unguaranteed residuals on lease vehicles returnedits present owned portfolio. The
allowance required to TMCC for
disposition at lease termination are established based uponcover estimated residual value losses is evaluated
quarterly, considering projected vehicle return rates and projected residual
value losses derived from historical and market information as well ason used vehicle
sales, historical factors including trends in lease returns, the new car
markets, and general economic factors.conditions. After carefully evaluating these
factors, management develops several loss scenarios and reviews allowance
levels to ensure reserves are adequate to cover the probable range of losses.
The provisionallowance for residual value losses is maintained in amounts considered by
management to be appropriate in relation to the expected losses on the present
owned portfolio. Upon disposal of the assets, the allowance for residual
losses is adjusted for the difference between the net book value and the
proceeds from sale. The allowance for residual value losses and related
provision expense are included in finance receivables, net and investment in
operating leases, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and lease depreciation
expense.expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income, respectively.
Deferred Charges
- ----------------
Deferred charges consist primarily of premiums paid for option-based products, underwriters' commissions and other debt
issuance costs which are amortized to interest expense over the life of the
related instruments on a straight-line basis, which is not materially different
from the effective interest method.
Derivative Financial Instruments
--------------------------------
TMCC uses a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage funding costs
and risks associated with changes in interest and foreign currency exchange
rates. The derivative instruments used include interest rate, cross currency
interest rate and indexed note swap agreements and option-based products. TMCC
does not use any of these instruments for trading purposes. The derivative
financial instruments are specifically designated to the underlying debt
obligations or to portfolio level risks. Cash flows related to these
instruments are classified in the same categories as cash flows from related
borrowing activities.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements
-----------------------------
Interest rate swap agreements are executed as an integral part of specific debt
transactions or on a portfolio basis. The differential paid or received on
interest rate swap agreements is recorded on an accrual basis as an adjustment
to interest expense over the term of the agreements.
Cross Currency Interest Rate Swap Agreements
--------------------------------------------
Cross currency interest rate swap agreements are executed as an integral part
of foreign currency debt transactions. The differential between the contract
rates and the foreign currency spot exchange rates as of the reporting dates is
classified in other receivables or accounts payable and accrued expenses; the
differential paid or received on the interest rate swap portion of the
agreements is recorded on an accrual basis as an adjustment to interest expense
over the term of the agreements.

Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133") requires companies to record
derivatives on the balance sheet as assets and liabilities, measured at fair
value. Fair value is determined using externally quoted market values where
possible. If externally quoted market rates are executed as an integral part of indexed note
transactions. Any differential between contractnot available, the Company
uses external market rates and foreign currency
spot exchange rates asin conjunction with a customized market valuation
system to determine the fair value of the reporting dates is classified in other
receivables or accounts payableCompany's derivatives. Derivative
assets and accrued expenses; theliabilities include interest differential
paid or received onrate swaps, indexed note swap
agreements, cross currency interest rate swap agreements and option-based
products. The accounting for the gain or loss due to changes in fair value of
the hedged item depends on whether the relationship between the hedged item and
the derivative instrument qualifies for hedge treatment. If the relationship
between the hedged item and the derivative instrument does not qualify as a
hedge, the gains or losses are reported in earnings when they occur. However,
if the relationship between the hedged item and the derivative instrument
qualifies as a hedge, the accounting varies based on the type of risk being
hedged. The types of instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting
include, but are not limited to, U.S. basis swap instruments, and currency
structured transactions including inverse floating rate instruments.
Derivatives are recognized in the balance sheet at their fair value. On the
date that the Company enters into a derivative contract, it designates the
derivative as a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or a
foreign-currency fair-value hedge (a "foreign currency hedge"). Changes in the
fair value of a derivative that is highly effective as - and that is designated
and qualifies as - a fair-value hedge or foreign-currency hedge, along with
changes in fair value of the hedged assets or liabilities that are attributable
to the hedged risk, are recorded in current-period earnings. Additional
information concerning the SFAS No. 133 requirements is disclosed in Note 8 -
Derivatives and Hedging Activities of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements.

Derivative Financial Instruments (Continued)
- --------------------------------
The Company occasionally purchases a financial instrument in which a derivative
instrument is "embedded." Upon purchasing the financial instrument, the
Company assesses whether the economic characteristics of the embedded
derivative are clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of
the remaining component of the financial instrument (i.e. host contract) and
whether a separate, non-embedded instrument with the same terms as the embedded
instrument would meet the definition of a derivative instrument. When it is
determined that (1) the embedded derivative possesses economic characteristics
that are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the
host contract and (2) a separate, stand-alone instrument with the same terms
would qualify as a derivative instrument, the embedded derivative is separated
from the host contract, carried at fair value, and designated as either (1) a
fair-value hedge or (2) non-hedging derivative instrument. However, if the
entire contract were to be measured at fair value, with changes in fair value
reported in current earnings, or if the Company could not reliably identify and
measure the embedded derivative for purposes of separating that derivative from
its host contract, the entire contract would be carried on an accrual
basisthe balance sheet at
fair value and not be designated as a hedging instrument.
The Company formally documents relationships between hedging instruments and
hedged items, as well as its risk-management objective and strategy for
undertaking various hedge transactions. This process includes linking
derivatives that are designated as fair-value hedges to specific liabilities on
the balance sheet. The Company also assesses whether the derivatives that are
used in hedging transactions have been highly effective in offsetting changes
in the fair value of hedged items and whether those derivatives may be expected
to remain highly effective in future periods. When it is determined that a
derivative is not (or has ceased to be) highly effective as a hedge, the
Company discontinues hedge accounting prospectively, as discussed below.
The Company will discontinue hedge accounting prospectively when (1) it
determines that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in
the fair value of a hedged item; (2) the derivative expires or is sold,
terminated, or exercised; or (3) management determines that designating the
derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate.
When hedge accounting is discontinued due to the Company's determination that
the derivative no longer qualifies as an adjustmenteffective fair-value hedge, the
Company will continue to interest expense overcarry the termderivative on the balance sheet at its fair
value but cease to adjust the hedged liability for changes in fair value. In a
situation in which hedge accounting is discontinued and the derivative remains
outstanding, the Company will carry the derivative at its fair value on the
balance sheet, recognizing changes in the fair value in current-period
earnings.

Option-Based Products
---------------------
Option-based products are executed on a portfolio basis. Premiums paid for
option-based products are included in deferred charges and are amortized to
interest expense over the life of the instruments on a straight-line basis.
Amounts receivable under option-based products are recorded on an accrual basis
as a reduction to interest expense.Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
- ---------------------------------------------------
Insurance Operations
- --------------------
Revenues from insurance premiums and from providing coverage under various contractual agreements are
recognized over the term of the agreement in relation to the timing and level
of anticipated expenses. Revenues from insurance premiums are earned over the
terms of the respective policies and
agreements in proportion to estimated claims activity.
Certain costs of acquiring new business, consisting primarily of commissions
and premium taxes, are deferred and amortized over the termsterm of the related
policies on the same basis as revenues are earned. The liability for losses
and loss expenses represents the accumulation of estimates for reported losses
and a provision for losses incurred but not reported, including claim
adjustment expenses. Loss reserve projections are used to estimate loss
reporting patterns, loss payment patterns and ultimate claim costs. An
inherent assumption in such projections is that historical loss patterns can
be used to predict future patterns with reasonable accuracy. Because many
variables can affect past and future loss patterns, the effect of changes in
such variables on the results of loss projections must be carefully evaluated.
The evaluation of these factors involves significant assumptions, complex
analysis and management judgment, which may significantly impact the financial
statements. Insurance liabilities are, therefore, necessarily based on
estimates, and the ultimate liability may vary from such estimates. These
estimates are regularly reviewed by management and adjustments to such are
included in income on a current basis. The liability for reported losses and
the estimate of unreported losses are recorded in accounts payable and accrued
expenses. CommissionCommissions and fee incomefees from services provided are recognized in
relation to the timing and level of services performed.
Income Taxes
- ------------
TMCC uses the liability method of accounting for income taxes under which
deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted to reflect changes in tax
rates and laws in the period such changes are enacted resulting in adjustments
to the current period's provision for income taxes.
The Company joins with TMS in filingfiles a consolidated federal income tax returns
and return with its
subsidiaries. The Company files either separate or consolidated/combined or consolidatedstate
income tax returns in certain states. Federal and

the Company filed its tax returns on a stand alonestand-alone basis. In those states
where TMCC joins in the filing of consolidated or combined income tax returns,
TMCC is allocated its share of the total income tax expense based on the Company'scombined
allocation/apportionment factors and separate company income or loss
which would be allocable to such states if the Company filed separate returns.loss. Based on
an informal state tax sharing agreement with TMSTMA and other memberssubsidiaries of the

Asset-Backed Securitization Transactions
- ----------------------------------------
TMCC periodically sells retail receivables through the limited purpose
subsidiaries TMCRC or TAFR. In 1997 and 1998, TMCC maintained programs to
sell interests in lease finance receivables through the limited purpose
subsidiaries TMCRC and TLI, respectively.subsidiary TLI. TMCC retains servicing rights for sold assetsreceivables and
receives a servicing fee which is recognized over the remaining term of the
related sold retail receivables or interests in lease finance receivables.
TMCRC and TLITAFR retain subordinated interests in the excess cash flows offor these
transactions, certain cash deposits and other related amounts which are held as
restricted assets subject to limited recourse provisions. The Company's
retained interests in such receivables are included in investments in
marketable securities and are classified as available for sale. Pre-tax gains
on sold retail receivables and interests in lease finance
receivables are recognized in the period in which the sale
occurs and are included in other income. In determining suchThe determination of gains and the
investment invaluation of retained interests are based on an allocation of the cost of the
sold retail receivable and interests in lease finance receivable pool is
allocatedreceivables between the portion sold and the portion retained based on theirusing the
relative fair values on the date sold.of sale. The fair value of the retained
interests is estimated using the present value of future expected cash flows,
with market interest rates, discount rates commensurate with the risks
involved, estimated credit losses, credit spreads and prepayment speeds
comprising the key calculation assumptions. Such assumptions are determined
utilizing data obtained from other market participants, where available.
Otherwise, such assumptions are based on historical information or derived
from management's best estimate. Thus, the selection of assumptions involves
complex, subjective judgments which, when changed, may significantly impact
the financial statements.
The Company accounts for its retained interests in accordance with EITF No.
99-20, "Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and
Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets." Under EITF 99-
20, TMCC recognizes the excess of all cash flows attributable to the
beneficial interest estimated at the acquisition/transaction date (the
"transaction date") over the initial investment as interest income over the
life of the beneficial interest using the effective yield method. As
adjustments to the estimated cash flows are made based upon expected market
conditions, the Company adjusts the rate at which income is earned
prospectively. Additionally, EITF 99-20 provides guidance as to when the
holder of a retained interest must conclude that a decline in value below the
carrying amount is considered permanent impairment. TMCC's policy is that if
a decrease in the estimated future cash flows results in a fair value below
the carrying amount and the decline is considered permanent, then the asset is
written down through earnings (as opposed to other comprehensive income). Any
excess of the carrying amount of the retained interest over its fair value
results in an adjustment to the asset with a corresponding offset to
unrealized gain. Unrealized gains, net of income taxes, related to retained
assets are included in comprehensive income. Management reviews the underlying
assumptions of the residual interests at least on a quarterly basis.

In March 1998,June 2001, the American Institute of Certified Public AccountantsFASB issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-1,Financial Accounting Standards No.
143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS No. 143"). This
Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations
associated with the Costsretirement of Computer
Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use." This SOP provides guidance
on accountingtangible long-lived assets and the associated
asset retirement costs and it applies to legal obligations associated with the
retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction,
development and (or) the normal operation of a long-lived asset, except for
certain costsobligations of lessees. Under SFAS No. 143, a company is required to
1) record an existing legal obligation associated with the retirement of a
tangible long-lived asset as a liability when incurred and the amount of the
liability be initially measured at fair value, 2) recognize subsequent changes
in connection with obtainingthe liability that result from (a) the passage of time and (b) revisions in

Company'srelated long-lived asset. SFAS No. 143 is effective for financial statements

In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative

losses resulting from changes in the values of those derivatives would be
accounted for as components of comprehensive income depending on the use of the
derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting.financial statements.
In June 1999,August 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets"
("SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities - Deferral144"). The objectives of SFAS 144 are to address significant
issues relating to the Effective Dateimplementation of FASB Statement No. 133", which
defers121 "Accounting
for the effective dateImpairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be
Disposed Of" ("SFAS No. 121") and to develop a single accounting model based
on the framework established in SFAS No. 121 for long-lived assets to be
disposed of by sale whether previously held and used or newly acquired. Even
though SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, it retains the fundamental
provisions of SFAS No. 133121 for (1) the recognition and measurement of the
impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used and (2) the measurement of
long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale. SFAS No. 144 supersedes the
accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board No. 30
"Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a
Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring
Events and Transactions" ("APB 30") for segments of a business to be disposed
of. However, SFAS 144 retains APB 30's requirement that entities report
discontinued operations separately from continuing operations and extends that
reporting requirement to "a component of an entity" that either has been
disposed of (by sale, abandonment, or in a distribution to owners) or is
classified as "held for sale". SFAS No. 144 also amends the guidance of
Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, "Consolidated Financial Statements" ("ARB
51") to eliminate the exception to consolidation for a temporarily controlled
subsidiary. The provisions of SFAS No. 144 are effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after JuneDecember 15, 2000. The2001 and
interim periods within those fiscal years. Management of the Company
has not determinedanticipates that the impact that adoption of this
standard will have on its consolidated financial statements. The Company plans
to adopt SFAS No. 133 by October 1, 2000, as required.144 will not have a material effect

In April 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB
Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections" ("SFAS No. 145"). The objectives
of SFAS No. 145 are to eliminate an inconsistency between the required
accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for
certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to
sale-leaseback transactions. The Statement also amends other existing
authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify
meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions. The
provisions of this Statement related to the rescission of Statement 4 will be
applied in fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002. The provisions related
to Statement 13 will be effective for transactions occurring after
May 15, 2002. All other provisions of the Statement will be effective for
financial statements issued on or after May 15, 2002. Management of the

The increase in the allowance for credit losses for the year ended March 31,
2002 as compared with the six months ended March 31, 2001 and the years ended
September 30, 2000 and 1999, is due to the recent national economic downturn,
the introduction of the tiered pricing program, and the effects of TMCC's
field reorganization which has temporarily disrupted normal collection
activities. The objective of the tiered pricing programs is to better match
customer risk with contract rates charged to allow profitable purchases of a
wider range of risk levels. Implementation of these programs has contributed
to increased average contract yields and increased credit losses in connection
with purchases of higher risk contracts.

TMCC maintains programs to sell retail receivables through the limited purpose
subsidiaries TMCRC and TAFR. In 1997 and 1998, TMCC maintained programs to
sell interests in lease finance receivables through the limited purpose
subsidiaries TMCRC and TLI,
respectively. During fiscal year 1999,subsidiary TLI. TMCC sold interests in lease financeservices its securitized receivables totaling $780 million and retail finance receivables totaling $989
million, as described below.
TMCC holds an Undivided Trust Interest ("UTI") in leases held in a titling
trust established by TMCC. In December 1998, TMCC identified certain leases
included in the UTI to be allocated to a separate portfolio represented by a
Special Unit of Beneficial Interest ("SUBI") totaling $780 million. TMCC then
sold the SUBI to TLI which in turn contributed substantially all of the SUBI
to a trust; TMCC continues to act as servicer for all assets represented by
the UTI and the SUBI and is paid a
servicing fee. TLI retainsfee of 1% of the total principal balance of the outstanding
receivables for both retail and lease securitizations. In a subordinated
interests incapacity, the limited purpose subsidiaries retain excess cash flows, of these transactions, certain
cash deposits and other related amounts, which are held as restricted assets
subject to limited recourse provisions. None of the lease assets represented by the
SUBI or theThese restricted assets are not
available to satisfy any obligations of TMCC. -44-Investors in these
securitizations have recourse to the interest-only strips, restricted cash
held by the securitization trusts, any subordinated retained interest, and any
draws against existing revolving liquidity note agreements. The exposure of
these interests exists until the associated securities are paid in full.
Investors do not have recourse to other assets held by TMCC for failure of
obligors on the receivables to pay when due or otherwise. Senior and
subordinated securities are further discussed in Item 7 - Sale of Receivables

During the 12 months ended March 31, 2002, TMCC sold retail finance
receivables totaling approximately $4.6 billion to TAFR which in turn sold
them to specific trusts. Some of the classes issued within the securitization
transactions were issued in conjunction with associated swaps. For those
securitization transactions, the securitization trust swapped the fixed rate
interest coupon with TMCC and received a floating interest coupon payable to
the investors.
The pretax gain resulting from the sale of retail receivables totaled
approximately $81 million, $46 million, $5 million and $8 million for the year
ended March 31, 2002, the six months ended March 31, 2001 and for the years
ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, after providing an allowance
for estimated credit and residual value losses. The pretax gain resulting
from the sale of interests in lease finance receivables totaled approximately
$5 million for the year ended September 30, 1999. Gains on sales of
receivables sold are reported in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of
Income under investment and other income. The gain on sale recorded depends
on the carrying amount of the assets at the time of the sale. The carrying
amount is allocated between the assets sold and the retained interests based
on their relative fair values at the date of the sale. The fair value of
retained interests was estimated by discounting expected cash flows using
management's best estimates and other key assumptions.
Income earned from the sale of the receivables includes the gain or loss on
sale of finance receivables, as well as servicing fee income, the interest
income earned on retained securities and excess spread. The sale of
receivables has the effect of reducing financing revenues in the year the
receivables are sold as well as in future years. The net impact of
securitizations on annual earnings will include income effects in addition to
the reported gain or loss on the sale of receivables and will vary depending
on the amount, type of receivable and timing of our securitizations in the
current year and the preceding two to three year period as well as the
interest rate environment at the time the finance receivables were originated
and securitized.

Note 7 - Sale of Receivables and Securitization (Continued)
- -----------------------------------------------
The increased use of securitization, coupled with the decline in interest
rates during fiscal years 2002 and 2001, led to higher reported gains on sold
receivables compared with prior years. In addition to the increase in gains
during fiscal years 2002 and 2001, interest earned on retained assets
increased due to the increased use of securitization.
In January 2002, TMCC sold retail finance receivables totaling $1.6 billion.
The Company sold certain finance receivables to TAFR which in turn sold them
to a specific trust. The pretax gain resulting from the sale of these retail
receivables totaled approximately $8$51.5 million $15
million and $23 million in fiscal 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively, after providing an allowance
for estimated credit losses. As part of the transaction, TMCC entered into a
revolving liquidity note agreement in lieu of a cash reserve fund to fund
shortfalls in principal and interest payments to security holders. The
aggregate amount available under the revolving liquidity note is $7,786,611.
The trust will be obligated to repay amounts drawn and interest will be
accrued at 4.419% per annum. If TMCC's short-term unsecured debt rating falls
below P-1 or A-1+ by Moody's or S&P, respectively, or if TMCC fails to fund
any amount drawn under the revolving liquidity note, the trust is entitled to
draw down the entire undrawn amount of the revolving liquidity note.
Repayments of principal and interest due under the revolving liquidity note
are subordinated to principal and interest payments on the asset backed notes
and, in some circumstances, to deposits into a reserve account.
In September 2001, TMCC securitized retail finance receivables totaling $1.5
billion. This securitization was treated as a sale for legal purposes, but
treated as a secured borrowing for accounting purposes as the securitization
trust was not structured as a qualifying special purpose entity ("QSPE") as
defined pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 140,
"Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment
of Liabilities" ("SFAS 140"). Therefore, the receivables and debt issued
remained on the balance sheet pursuant to SFAS 140, as amended. This
accounting method is referred to as the "portfolio method". Under the
portfolio method, the finance receivables transferred to the securitization
trust and held as collateral for the notes issued to investors are classified
as "Finance receivables, net - securitized". The weighted average annual
percentage rate for these receivables is approximately 8.60%. Due to the
nature of the accounting treatment, neither servicing fee income or excess
interest income is recognized. The $1.1 billion notes issued to investors in
the securitization trust are classified as "Notes payable related to
securitized finance receivables structured as collateralized borrowings". The
weighted average fixed rate equivalent for these payables at March 31, 2002
was approximately 4.47% and had a remaining weighted average life of
approximately 1.30 years. TMCC entered into a revolving liquidity note
agreement in lieu of a cash reserve fund to fund shortfalls in principal and
interest payments to security holders. Any aggregate amount available under
the revolving liquidity note is $7,500,000. The Trust will be obligated to
repay amounts drawn and interest will be accrued at 5.07% per annum. If
TMCC's short-term unsecured debt rating falls below P-1 or A-1+ by Moody's or
S&P, respectively, or if TMCC fails to fund any amount drawn under the
revolving liquidity note, the trust is entitled to draw down the entire
undrawn amount of the revolving liquidity note. Repayments of principal and
interest due under the revolving liquidity note are subordinated to principal
and interest payments on the asset backed notes and, in some circumstances, to
deposits into a reserve account.

Note 7 - Sale of Receivables and Securitization (Continued)
- -----------------------------------------------
During May 2001, TMCC sold retail finance receivables totaling $1.5 billion
subject to certain limited recourse provisions. TMCC sold its receivables to
TAFR which in turn sold them to a trust. The pretax gain resulting from the
sale of these retail receivables totaled approximately $29.5 million after
providing an allowance for estimated credit losses.
The key economic assumptions used in the calculation of the initial gain on
sale of receivables and the subsequent valuation of the retained interests
include the estimated interest rate environment (in order to project the net
rate earned on the residual value losses.
Principal collectionsinterests), severity and rate of credit losses,
and the prepayment speed of the receivables. Management estimates the credit
loss rate based on a number of factors including attributes of the finance
receivables securitized. Attributes considered include the new versus used
contract mix, loan credit scoring, and seasoning of contracts sold. To
determine the prepayment assumption used, management considers prior and
current prepayment speeds of outstanding securitization transactions and
estimated future economic conditions. Discount rates applied to the residual
interests at the point of sale are at current market rates based on an
investment with a similar term and risk associated with the retained interest.
All key assumptions used in the valuation of the retained interests are
reviewed at least quarterly and are revised as deemed appropriate. After
carefully evaluating the factors discussed above, management ensures that the
final assumptions used are adequate to cover probable potential losses or
decreases in cash flows related to the leaseprepayment of assets.
Key economic assumptions used in estimating the fair value of retained
interests at the date of securitization for securitizations completed during
the year ended March 31, 2002 were as follows:
Year ended
March 31, 2002
----------------

Discount rate used on the subordinated tranche.... 5% - 8%
The outstanding balance of retail finance receivables sold through
securitizations which TMCC continues to service totaled $4.6 billion, $4.1
billion, $1.9 billion and $1.0 billion at March 31, 2002 and 2001, and
September 2001 and 2000 respectively. The outstanding balance of interests in
December 1998
were used to purchase additional vehicle lease contracts resulting in gains of
approximately $7 million for fiscal 1999.finance receivables sold through securitizations which TMCC serviced
totaled $1.1 billion, $1.9 billion and $3.1 billion at March 31, 2001 and
September 2001 and 2000 respectively. During fiscal 1999,year 2002, TLI exercised
its option to repurchase remaining outstanding receivables under all lease ABS
transactions. As of result of the repurchase, there is no outstanding balance
of interests in lease finance receivables as of March 31, 2002.

TMCC records its retained assets at fair value, which is estimated using a
discounted cash flow analysis. The retained assets are not considered to have
a readily available market value. Any excess of the carrying amount of the
retained interest over its fair value results in an adjustment to the asset
with a corresponding offset to unrealized gain. Unrealized gains, net of
income taxes, related to the retained assets are included in comprehensive
income. If management deems the excess between the carrying value and the
fair value to be unrecoverable, the asset is written down through earnings.
As stated above, the Company evaluates the key economic assumptions used in
the initial valuation of the retained assets and performs a subsequent review
of those assumptions on a quarterly basis. Management reviews the underlying
assumptions of the residual interests at least on a quarterly basis.
TMCC recorded an adjustment to other receivables totaling $70 million, $25
million, $74 million, and $19 million for the year ended March 31, 2002, the
six months ended March 31, 2001 and for the years ended September 30, 2000 and
1999, respectively. Prior to recognize thefiscal year 2002, all impairment of an asset retained in the fiscal
1997 sale of interestsrelated to
interest in lease finance receivables. Of the $70 million in impairment
recognized in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, $23 million related to
retail finance receivables recognized in the fourth quarter of 2002.
Impairment of retail finance receivables resulted primarily from the Company
experiencing an increase in credit losses as a result of the restructuring of
field operations into regional centers of certain of its servicing operations
that were previously performed in branch offices, tiered pricing, and the
recent national economic downturn. As a result, credit loss assumptions were
adjusted to properly reflect current market conditions. The impairment wasimpairments
associated with the retained interest in lease finance receivables were
recognized when the future undiscounted cash flows of the asset wasassets were
estimated to be insufficient to recover itsthe related carrying value. The impairment
adjustment is includedvalues resulting
from higher return rates and an increase in investmentvehicle disposition loss
assumptions.
Cumulative static pool losses over the life of the securitizations are
calculated by taking the actual losses (life to date) and other income.

dividing them by the original balance of each pool of assets. Actual and
expected static pool credit losses for the retail loan securitizations were

certain medium-term notes ("MTNs"). The weighted average remaining term of
commercial paper was 21 days and 15 days at September 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. The weighted average interest rate on commercial paper was 5.33%
and 5.57% at September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. The weighted average
remaining term and weighted average interest rate on extendible commercial
notes at September 30, 1999 was 18 days and 5.39%, respectively. Short-term
MTNs with original terms of one year or less, included in other senior debt,
were $1,358 million and $488 million at September 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. The weighted average interest rate on these short-term MTNs was

The weighted average interest rate on other senior debt was 5.45% and 5.65% at
September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, including the effect ofagreements, cross currency interest rate swap agreements and option-based
products. The rates have been calculated
using ratesaccounting for the gain or loss due to changes in effectfair value of
the hedged item depends on whether the relationship between the hedged item and
the derivative instrument qualifies for hedge treatment. If the relationship
between the hedged item and the derivative instrument does not qualify as a
hedge, the gains or losses are reported in earnings when they occur. However,
if the relationship between the hedged item and the derivative instrument
qualifies as a hedge, the accounting varies based on the type of risk being
hedged. The types of instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting
include, but are not limited to, U.S. basis swap instruments, and currency
structured transactions including inverse floating rate instruments.
Derivatives are recognized in the balance sheet at September 30, 1999their fair value. On the
date that the Company enters into a derivative contract, it designates the
derivative as a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or a
foreign-currency fair-value hedge (a "foreign currency hedge"). Changes in the
fair value of a derivative that is highly effective as - and 1998, somethat is designated
and qualifies as - a fair-value hedge or foreign-currency hedge, along with
changes in fair value of the hedged assets or liabilities that are attributable
to the hedged risk, are recorded in current-period earnings. Additional
information concerning the SFAS No. 133 requirements is disclosed in Note 2 -
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Derivative Financial Instruments.
For the year ended March 31, 2002, the Company recognized a gain of $38 million
(reported as SFAS 133 fair value adjustments in the Consolidated Statement of
Income). The net adjustment reflects a gain of $43 million in the fair market
value of TMCC's portfolio of option-based products and certain interest rate
swaps, offset by a $5 million decrease related to the ineffective portion of
TMCC's fair value hedges. The increase in the fair market value of TMCC's
option-based products is primarily due to higher market interest rates. Various
derivative instruments, such as option-based products which hedge interest rate
risk from an economic perspective, and which the Company is unable or has
elected not to apply hedge accounting, are floating ratesdiscussed in Non-Hedging Activities

Interest Rate Risk Management
- -----------------------------Fair-Value Hedges
The Company enters into interest rate swaps, indexed note swap agreements and
cross currency interest rate swap agreements to convert its fixed-rate debt to
variable-rate debt, a portion of which is covered by option-based products.
(Refer to non-hedging activities below for a discussion of option-based
products).
TMCC utilizesuses interest rate swap agreements in managing its exposure to interest
rate fluctuations. Interest rate swap agreements are executed as either an
integral part of specific debt transactions or on a portfolio basis. TMCC's
interest rate swap agreements involve agreements to pay fixed and receive a
floating rate, or receive fixed and pay a floating rate, at specified
intervals, calculated on an agreed-upon notional amount. Interest rate swap
agreements may also involve basis swap contracts which are agreements to
exchange the difference between certain floating interest amounts, such as the
net payment based on the commercial paper rate and the London Interbank Offered
Rate ("LIBOR"), calculated on an agreed-upon notional amount. The original
maturities of interest rate swap agreements ranged from one to fiveten years at
September 30, 1999.
TMCC also utilizes option-based products in managing its exposure to interest
rate fluctuations. Option-based products are executed on a portfolio basis and
consist primarily of purchased interest rate cap agreements and to a lesser
extent corridor agreements. Option-based products are agreements which either
grant TMCC the right to receive or require TMCC to make payments at specified
interest rate levels. Approximately 41% of TMCC's other senior debt at
September 30, 1999 had floating interest rates that were covered by option-
based products which had an average strike rate of 5.83%. The premiums paid
for option-based products are included in deferred charges and are amortized to
interest expense over the life of the instruments on a straight-line basis.
Amounts receivable under option-based products are recorded as a reduction to
interest expense. The original maturities of option-based products ranged from
one to four years at September 30, 1999.
The aggregate notional amounts of interest rate swap agreements and option-
based products outstanding at September 30, 1999 and 1998 were as follows:

TMCC utilizesuses indexed note swap agreements in managing its exposure in connection
with debt instruments whose interest rate and/or principal redemption amounts
are derived from other underlying instruments.indices. Indexed note swap agreements
involve agreements to receive interest and/or principal amounts associated
with the indexed notes, denominated in either U.S. dollars or a foreign
currency, and to pay fixed or floating rates on fixed U.S. dollar liabilities.
At September 30, 1999,March 31, 2002, TMCC was the counterparty to $1.3$0.2 billion of indexed note
swap agreements, of which $0.4$0.2 billion was denominated in foreign currencies and $0.9 billion was denominated in U.S. dollars.currencies.
At September 30, 1998,March 31, 2001, TMCC was the counterparty to $0.8$0.6 billion of indexed note
swap agreements, of which $0.3 billion was denominated in foreign currencies
and $0.5$0.3 billion was denominated in U.S. dollars. The original maturities of
indexed note swap agreements ranged from one towere ten years at September 30,
1999.
The notional amounts of interest rate and indexed note swap agreements and
option-based products do not represent amounts exchanged by the parties and,
thus, are not a measure of the Company's exposure through its use of
derivatives. The amounts exchanged are calculated based on the notional
amounts and other terms of the derivatives which relate to interest rates or
financial or other indexes.
Foreign Exchange Risk Management
- --------------------------------March 31, 2002.
TMCC utilizesuses cross currency interest rate swap agreements to manageentirely hedge
exposure to exchange rate fluctuations on principal and interest payments for
borrowings denominated in foreign currencies. Notes and loans payable issued
in foreign currencies are hedged by concurrently executedexecuting cross currency
interest rate swap agreements which involve the exchange of foreign currency
principal and interest obligations for U.S. dollar obligations at agreed-upon
currency exchange and interest rates. The aggregate notional amounts of cross
currency interest rate swap agreements at September 30, 1999March 31, 2002 and 19982001 were
$8.8$7.8 billion and $9.0$8.3 billion, respectively. The original maturities of cross
currency interest rate swap agreements ranged from onethree to ten years at March
31, 2002.
Derivative instruments used by TMCC involve, to varying degrees, elements of
credit risk in the event a counterparty defaults in performing its obligation
under the derivative agreement. Credit risk is managed through the use of
credit standard guidelines, counterparty diversification, monitoring of
counterparty financial condition and master netting agreements in place with
all derivative counterparties. Credit exposure of derivative instruments is
discussed further under Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About
Market Risk.

Non-Hedging Activities
Option-based products are executed on a portfolio basis and consist primarily
of purchased interest rate cap agreements, interest rate swaps and, to a lesser
extent, foreign exchange forward contract agreements. Option-based products
are agreements which either grant TMCC the right to receive, or require TMCC to
make payments at, specified interest rate levels. The aggregate notional
amounts of option-based products outstanding at March 31, 2002 and 2001 were
$6.1 billion and $11.5 billion, respectively. Approximately 28% of TMCC's
other senior debt at March 31, 2002 had floating interest rates that were
covered by option-based products which had an average strike rate of 4.35%.
Option-based products are used to hedge interest rate risk from an economic
perspective on TMCC's portfolio.
The Company uses this strategy to moderate its exposure to volatility in LIBOR.
These products are not linked to specific assets and liabilities that appear on
the balance sheet, and therefore, do not qualify for hedge accounting. In
addition, the Company also uses certain interest rate swaps for overall
asset/liability management purposes. These products are not linked to specific
assets or liabilities.

Notes and loans payable at March 31, 2002 and 2001 reflect the adjustments
required under SFAS No. 133 for derivatives and debt instruments which qualify
for hedge treatment as discussed in Note 8 - Derivatives and Hedging
Activities. The notional amount of notes and loans payable was $26.7 billion
and $23.1 billion at March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Short-term borrowings include commercial paper and certain medium-term notes
("MTNs"). The weighted average remaining term of commercial paper was 19 days
and 17 days at March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The weighted average
interest rate on commercial paper was 1.83% and 5.10% at March 31, 2002 and
2001, respectively. At March 31, 2002, TMCC had no short-term MTNs with
original terms of one year or less. Short-term MTNs with original terms of one
year or less, included in other senior debt, were $1,205 million at March 31,
2001. The weighted average interest rate on these short-term MTNs was 5.01% at
March 31, 2001, including the effect of interest rate swap agreements.
Other senior debt includes certain MTNs, euro bonds and domestic bonds. The
weighted average interest rate on other senior debt was 4.23% and 5.46% at
March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, including the effect of interest rate
swap agreements. The rates have been calculated using rates in effect at March
31, 2002 and 2001, some of which are floating rates that reset periodically.
Less than one percent of other senior debt at March 31, 2002 had interest
rates, including the effect of interest rate swap agreements, that were fixed
for a period of more than one year. Approximately 28% of other senior debt at
March 31, 2002 had floating interest rates that were covered by option-based
products. The weighted average strike rate on these option-based products was
4.35% at March 31, 2002. TMCC manages interest rate risk through continuous
adjustment of the mix of fixed and floating rate debt using interest rate swap
agreements and option-based products.

TMCC manages the risk of counterparty default through the usehas extended inventory floorplan lines of credit standard guidelines, counterparty diversificationto dealers, the unused
portion of which amounted to $1.8 billion and monitoring$675 million at March 31, 2002
and 2001, respectively. Security interests are acquired in vehicles and
equipment financed and such financings are generally backed by corporate or
individual guarantees from or on behalf of counterparty financial condition. At September 30, 1999, approximately 89% of
TMCC's derivative financial instruments, based on notional amounts, were with
commercial banks and investment banking firms assigned investment grade ratings
of "AA" or better by national rating agencies. TMCC does not anticipate non-
performance by any of its counterparties and has no reserves related to non-
performance as of September 30, 1999; TMCC has not experienced any counterparty
default during the three years ended September 30, 1999. Additionally, TMCC's
loss in the event of counterparty default is partially mitigated as a result of
master netting agreements in place with all derivative counterparties which
allow the net difference between TMCC and each counterparty to be exchanged in
the event of default.
Credit exposure of derivative financial instruments is represented by the fair
value of contracts with a positive fair value at September 30, 1999 reduced by
the effects of master netting agreements. The credit exposure of TMCC's
derivative financial instruments at September 30, 1999 was $88 million on an

TMCC has executed guarantees totaling $65 million in respect to TCA's offshore
dollar bank loans, of which approximately $40 million, including principal and
interest, is outstanding. Late in 2001, the Argentine government instituted a
series of changes that lead to political, economic and regulatory risks to
Argentine businesses. The government has imposed foreign exchange controls
restricting offshore payment transfers, and these controls are currently
preventing TCA from sending payments on its offshore dollar loans out of
Argentina. In February 2002, the Argentine government established measures to
re-denominate the entire Argentine economy into pesos and has permitted the
peso to float freely against other global currencies. This re-denomination
policy adversely affected TCA's financial condition and its ability to fully
satisfy its offshore dollar loans. Consequently for the year ended March 31,
2002, TMCC has included a charge against income of $31 million to write-off
its $5 million investment in TCA and to establish a reserve of $26 million
relating to TMCC's $40 million guaranty of TCA's offshore outstanding debt.
TMCC will continue to monitor the situation in Argentina.
TMCC has executed guarantees of the debt of BTB totaling $30 million.
TMCC has signed a comfort letter on behalf of TSV regarding TSV's office
lease. The comfort letter provides that in the event any currency exchange
controls are imposed in Venezuela that render it illegal for TSV to pay the
rent to the Landlord in U.S. Dollars (which is required under the Lease),
then TMCC will pay the rental fees that are owed to the landlord during the
currency exchange restriction period to a bank account located outside of
Venezuela. The total rent and other lease costs payable under the lease for
the entire 5-year term is approximately $4.2 million. The lease is
cancellable at the convenience of TMCC after year 3.

All full-time employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the TMS
Pension Plan commencing on the first day of the month following hire. Benefits
payable under this non-contributory defined benefit pension plan are based upon
final average compensation, final average bonus and years of credited service.
Final average compensation is defined as the average of the participant's base
rate of pay, plus overtime, during the highest-paid 60 consecutive months prior
to the earlier of termination or normal retirement. Final average bonus is
defined as the highest average of the participant's fiscal year bonus, and
basic seniority-based cash bonus for non-managerial personnel, over a period of
60 consecutive months prior to the earlier of termination or normal retirement.
A participant generally becomes eligible for the normal retirement benefit at
age 62, and may be eligible for early retirement benefits starting at age 55.
The annual normal retirement benefit under the Pension Plan, payable monthly,
is an amount equal to the number of years of credited service (up to 25 years)
multiplied by the sum of (i) 2% of the participant's final average compensation
less 2% of the estimated annual Social Security benefit payable to the
participant at normal retirement and (ii) 1% of the participant's final average
bonus. The normal retirement benefit is subject to reduction for certain
benefits under any union-sponsored retirement plan and benefits attributable to
employer contributions under any defined-contribution retirement plan
maintained by TMS and its subsidiaries or any affiliate that has been merged
into the TMS Pension Plan.

contributing benefit plan, authorizes a benefit to be paid to eligible
executives, including Mr. Borst, Mr. Deaderick, Mr. Stillo and Mr. Deaderick.Pelliccioni.
Benefits under the TMS SERP, expressed as an annuity payable monthly, are based
on 2% of the executive's compensation recognized under the plan multiplied by
the years of service credited under the plan (up to a maximum of 30), offset by
benefits payable under the TMS Pension Plan and the executive's primary Social
Security benefit. A covered participant's compensation may include base pay
and a percentage (not in excess of 100%) of bonus pay, depending on the
executive's length of service in certain executive positions. Similarly, years
of service credited under the plan are determined by reference, in part, to the
executive's length of service in certain executive positions. No benefit is
payable under the TMS SERP to an executive unless the executive's termination
of employment occurs on a date, after the executive reaches age 55, that is
agreed in writing by the President of TMS and the executive; and the executive
is vested in benefits under the TMS Pension Plan, or unless the executive
accepts an invitation to retire extended by the President of TMS.
