REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Microsoft Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Microsoft Corporation and subsidiaries (the
“Company”) as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income, cash flows, and
stockholders’ equity for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2011. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Microsoft Corporation and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and
their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2011, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2011, based on the criteria
established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of
the Treadway Commission and our report dated July 28, 2011, expressed an unqualified opinion on the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
