Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

The most recent fiscal year was a dramatic one for the financial markets. Concerns over slowing economic growth, the natural and nuclear disasters in Japan, and debt issues at home and abroad weighed on investors. Stock markets across the globe suffered the consequences, but U.S. stocks fared significantly better than their international counterparts.

In this volatile environment, Vanguard 500 Index Fund returned about 2% for the 12-month period. The fund closely tracked its benchmark, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index; the average return of its peer group was more than 2 percentage points lower.

If you own the fund in a taxable account, you may wish to review the table and discussion on after-tax returns for the fiscal year later in this report.

Big dramas and small numbers in the U.S. stock market
The broad U.S. stock market finished 2011 with a modestly positive return, a result that seems surprisingly low-key in light of the economic and political dramas that monopolized investors’ attention for much of the year.

Stock prices rallied and retreated as early optimism about the global economic outlook traded places with anxiety about Europe’s debt crisis and the contentious negotiations in Washington over raising the U.S. debt ceiling to avoid default. The

policymaking strife prompted Standard & Poor’s to downgrade the U.S. credit rating. (Vanguard’s confidence in the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury remains unshaken.) By year-end, stock prices were again on the rise, with investors refocused on signs of economic improvement.

International stock prices finished the year with a double-digit decline. The weaker performance of stocks outside the United States reflected the greater economic and financial challenges in Europe, Japan’s struggles with natural and nuclear disaster, and skittishness about emerging markets.

As yields fell, bonds delivered unexpectedly strong returns
Bond returns were also a surprise, mainly because so little was expected of them. At the end of 2010, bond yields hovered near historical lows, suggesting that the scope for further declines—and rallies in bond prices—was limited. During 2011, however, rates moved lower still as investors sought shelter from stock market turmoil. The broad U.S. bond market returned 7.84%. Municipal bonds, which were battered at the end of 2010, produced even stronger returns than taxable bonds in 2011.

The returns of the 3-month U.S. Treasury bill and other money market instruments approached 0%, which was consistent with the Federal Reserve Board’s interest rate policy but nevertheless a disappointment for savers.

Your fund produced modest returns despite rocky conditions
As I mentioned previously, the period covered in this report was marked by volatility. After climbing 9% in the first few months of the year, the S&P 500 Index experienced double-digit declines in the middle of the period. When stocks bounced back in the final few months of the year, the index recovered only some of its earlier gains.

Vanguard 500 Index Fund met its primary objective of closely tracking the S&P 500 Index for the year. The index’s top-performing sectors—consumer staples, health care, and utilities—held up well in the period’s mostly bearish environment. The goods and services provided by companies in these sectors are typically things that consumers can’t do without, regardless of economic conditions. For this reason, investors often consider them safe havens during volatile times.

Consumer staples contributed most to performance, adding 1.4 percentage points to the fund’s total return. Stocks of tobacco, food, and household product companies produced double-digit returns.

The fund expense ratios shown are from the prospectus dated April 29, 2011, and represent estimated costs for the current fiscal year. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, the fund’s expense ratios were 0.17% for Investor Shares, 0.05% for Admiral Shares, 0.05% for Signal Shares, and 0.05% for ETF Shares. The peer-group expense ratio is derived from data provided by Lipper Inc. and captures information through year-end 2010.

Pharmaceutical companies led the way in the health care industry, while electric companies were the best performers among utilities stocks.

Holdings in the financial sector—the index’s worst performer for the period—detracted almost 3 percentage points from returns. Financial services companies faced several challenges throughout the year, including more stringent financial regulations, a sluggish U.S. recovery, low interest rates, and the ongoing anxiety over the European debt crisis and its potential impact on the global banking system. Stocks in the materials sector also weighed on performance.

Your fund continues to post competitive long-term results
For the ten years ended December 31, Investor Shares of the 500 Index Fund returned an average of 2.82% a year. These results were in line with those of the S&P 500 Index, which as an unmanaged benchmark has no transaction costs or operating expenses. The average annual return for large-cap core funds was 1.45%.

While I realize that the fund’s average annual return for the past ten years isn’t generous by historical standards, it’s worth remembering that it is the product of an unusually tumultuous environment. Over the past decade, stock markets have

endured several traumatic events—most notably the bursting of the technology bubble in the early 2000s and the more recent financial crisis and global recession.

As we know, an index fund doesn’t try to outperform the market; its primary objective is to closely track its target index. That the fund has met this objective over the last ten years can be attributed to the superior index-management skills of its advisor, Vanguard Quantitative Equity Group. The advisor is helped in this task by the fund’s ultralow expenses.

The fund’s low costs also let investors keep more of the return on their investment—a factor that’s especially important during periods when the market’s returns are unimpressive.

A balanced portfolio can help defend against volatility
Over the past several years, the financial markets have taken us on a wild roller-coaster ride—stocks have soared one day and plunged the next. As investors, if we’ve learned anything during this time, it’s that periods of extreme volatility really aren’t that unusual.

Research shows that a balanced portfolio that’s diversified across asset classes can help reduce volatility. In strong markets, the stock portion of a balanced portfolio can offer investors the opportunity for long-term growth. In volatile times like those we’ve experienced in recent years, bonds and short-term investments can provide a cushion from dramatic swings in the stock market.

For these reasons, Vanguard encourages you to create a long-term investment plan that includes a steady mix of stocks, bonds, and short-term investments appropriate for your goals and risk tolerance. Vanguard 500 Index Fund—with its low costs and broad exposure to the large-cap segment of the U.S. stock market—can play a key role in such a well-balanced portfolio.

As always, thank you for entrusting your assets to Vanguard.

Sincerely,


F. William McNabb III
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Admiral Shares and Signal Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria. ETF Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc.; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Temporary cash investments acquired over 60 days to maturity are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Other temporary cash investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, enhancing returns, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The fund may seek to enhance returns by using futures contracts instead of the underlying securities when futures are believed to be priced more attractively than the underlying securities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (December 31, 2008–2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

4. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

5. Security Lending: The fund may lend its securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. Security loans are required to be secured at all times by collateral at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Security lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on investing cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

6. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At December 31, 2011, the fund had contributed capital of $16,508,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.02% of the fund’s net assets and 6.60% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 101,643,783
Temporary Cash Investments 232,522 13,996
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (812)
Total 101,875,493 13,996
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.

D. At December 31, 2011, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

        ($000)
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts Long (Short) (Depreciation)
S&P 500 Index March 2012 545 170,667 3,573
E-mini S&P 500 Index March 2012 660 41,336 446

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

E. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund realized $1,215,903,000 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions—in which shareholders exchanged fund shares for securities held by the fund rather than for cash. Because such gains are not taxable to the fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the fund had $11,517,000 of ordinary income available for distribution. The fund had available capital losses totaling $3,501,324,000 to offset future net capital gains. Of this amount, $2,057,911,000 is subject to expiration dates; $293,941,000 may be used to offset future net capital gains through December 31, 2014, and $1,763,970,000 through December 31, 2016. Capital losses of $1,443,413,000 realized beginning in fiscal 2011 may be carried forward indefinitely but must be used before any expiring loss carryforwards.

At December 31, 2011, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $74,199,745,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $27,690,556,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $38,670,555,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $10,979,999,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

F. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund purchased $6,985,287,000 of investment securities and sold $7,629,841,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of Vanguard Index Funds and the Shareholders of Vanguard 500 Index Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Vanguard 500 Index Fund (constituting a separate portfolio of Vanguard Index Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Fund”) at December 31, 2011, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and broker and by agreement to the underlying ownership records of Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Special 2011 tax information (unaudited) for Vanguard 500 Index Fund

 

This information for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, is included pursuant to provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.

The fund distributed $2,080,740,000 of qualified dividend income to shareholders during the fiscal year.

For corporate shareholders, 100% of investment income (dividend income plus short-term gains, if any) qualifies for the dividends-received deduction.

Your Fund’s After-Tax Returns

This table presents returns for your fund both before and after taxes. The after-tax returns are shown in two ways: (1) assuming that an investor owned the fund during the entire period and paid taxes on the fund’s distributions, and (2) assuming that an investor paid taxes on the fund’s distributions and sold all shares at the end of each period.

Calculations are based on the highest individual federal income tax and capital gains tax rates in effect at the times of the distributions and the hypothetical sales. State and local taxes were not considered. After-tax returns reflect any qualified dividend income. (In the example, returns after the sale of fund shares may be higher than those assuming no sale. This occurs when the sale would have produced a capital loss. The calculation assumes that the investor received a tax deduction for the loss.)

The table shows returns for Investor Shares only; returns for other share classes will differ. Please note that your actual after-tax returns will depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. Also note that if you own the fund in a tax-deferred account, such as an individual retirement account or a 401(k) plan, this information does not apply to you. Such accounts are not subject to current taxes.

Finally, keep in mind that a fund’s performance—whether before or after taxes—does not guarantee future results.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund.

A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading ”Expenses Paid During Period.“

Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.

Signal Shares 1,000.00 1,024.95 0.26
ETF Shares 1,000.00 1,024.95 0.26

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The fund’s annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are 0.17% for Investor Shares, 0.05% for Admiral Shares, 0.05% for Signal Shares, and 0.05% for ETF Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period.

Glossary

30-Day SEC Yield. A fund’s 30-day SEC yield is derived using a formula specified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Under the formula, data related to the fund’s security holdings in the previous 30 days are used to calculate the fund’s hypothetical net income for that period, which is then annualized and divided by the fund’s estimated average net assets over the calculation period. For the purposes of this calculation, a security’s income is based on its current market yield to maturity (for bonds), its actual income (for asset-backed securities), or its projected dividend yield (for stocks). Because the SEC yield represents hypothetical annualized income, it will differ—at times significantly—from the fund’s actual experience. As a result, the fund’s income distributions may be higher or lower than implied by the SEC yield.

Beta. A measure of the magnitude of a fund’s past share-price fluctuations in relation to the ups and downs of a given market index. The index is assigned a beta of 1.00. Compared with a given index, a fund with a beta of 1.20 typically would have seen its share price rise or fall by 12% when the index rose or fell by 10%. For this report, beta is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index. Note that a fund’s beta should be reviewed in conjunction with its R-squared (see definition). The lower the R-squared, the less correlation there is between the fund and the index, and the less reliable beta is as an indicator of volatility.

Dividend Yield. Dividend income earned by stocks, expressed as a percentage of the aggregate market value (or of net asset value, for a fund). The yield is determined by dividing the amount of the annual dividends by the aggregate value (or net asset value) at the end of the period. For a fund, the dividend yield is based solely on stock holdings and does not include any income produced by other investments.

Earnings Growth Rate. The average annual rate of growth in earnings over the past five years for the stocks now in a fund.

Equity Exposure. A measure that reflects a fund’s investments in stocks and stock futures. Any holdings in short-term reserves are excluded.

Expense Ratio. A fund’s total annual operating expenses expressed as a percentage of the fund’s average net assets. The expense ratio includes management and administrative expenses, but does not include the transaction costs of buying and selling portfolio securities.

Foreign Holdings. The percentage of a fund represented by securities or depositary receipts of companies based outside the United States.

Inception Date. The date on which the assets of a fund (or one of its share classes) are first invested in accordance with the fund’s investment objective. For funds with a subscription period, the inception date is the day after that period ends. Investment performance is measured from the inception date.

Median Market Cap. An indicator of the size of companies in which a fund invests; the midpoint of market capitalization (market price x shares outstanding) of a fund’s stocks, weighted by the proportion of the fund’s assets invested in each stock. Stocks representing half of the fund’s assets have market capitalizations above the median, and the rest are below it.

Price/Book Ratio. The share price of a stock divided by its net worth, or book value, per share. For a fund, the weighted average price/book ratio of the stocks it holds.

32


 

Price/Earnings Ratio. The ratio of a stock’s current price to its per-share earnings over the past year. For a fund, the weighted average P/E of the stocks it holds. P/E is an indicator of market expectations about corporate prospects; the higher the P/E, the greater the expectations for a company’s future growth.

R-Squared. A measure of how much of a fund’s past returns can be explained by the returns from the market in general, as measured by a given index. If a fund’s total returns were precisely synchronized with an index’s returns, its R-squared would be 1.00. If the fund’s returns bore no relationship to the index’s returns, its R-squared would be 0. For this report, R-squared is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index.

Return on Equity. The annual average rate of return generated by a company during the past five years for each dollar of shareholder’s equity (net income divided by shareholder’s equity). For a fund, the weighted average return on equity for the companies whose stocks it holds.

Short-Term Reserves. The percentage of a fund invested in highly liquid, short-term securities that can be readily converted to cash.

Turnover Rate. An indication of the fund’s trading activity. Funds with high turnover rates incur higher transaction costs and may be more likely to distribute capital gains (which may be taxable to investors). The turnover rate excludes in-kind transactions, which have minimal impact on costs.

The People Who Govern Your Fund

The trustees of your mutual fund are there to see that the fund is operated and managed in your best interests since, as a shareholder, you are a part owner of the fund. Your fund’s trustees also serve on the board of directors of The Vanguard Group, Inc., which is owned by the Vanguard funds and provides services to them on an at-cost basis.

A majority of Vanguard’s board members are independent, meaning that they have no affiliation with Vanguard or the funds they oversee, apart from the sizable personal investments they have made as private individuals. The independent board members have distinguished backgrounds in business, academia, and public service. Each of the trustees and executive officers oversees 180 Vanguard funds.

The following table provides information for each trustee and executive officer of the fund. More information about the trustees is in the Statement of Additional Information, which can be obtained, without charge, by contacting Vanguard at 800-662-7447, or online at vanguard.com.

Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

Small-capitalization stocks posted weak performance in 2011 as uncertainty about the strength of the U.S. economy and sovereign-debt woes in Europe roiled the markets. The three Vanguard small-cap index funds closely tracked the performance of their respective indexes, ending the year in negative territory. The funds topped the average returns of their peer groups, which consist largely of actively managed funds.

Looking at Investor Shares returns, Vanguard Small-Cap Growth Index Fund had the strongest performance, returning –1.58% for the year; the Small-Cap Value Index Fund had the weakest, at –4.16%. The Small-Cap Index Fund, which holds both growth and value stocks, returned –2.80%.

In September, the Small-Cap Growth and Value Index Funds began offering lower-cost Admiral Shares. As you can see in the tables on pages 1 and 2, these new shares produced positive returns for their brief life spans, reflecting the U.S. stock market’s turnaround in the final months of 2011.

Indexing can be a tax-efficient investment strategy. If you hold one of the small-cap index funds in a taxable account, you may wish to review the after-tax returns that appear later in this report.

Big dramas and small numbers in the U.S. stock market
The broad U.S. stock market finished 2011 with a modestly positive return, a result that seems surprisingly low-key in light of the year’s dramatic ups and downs.

Stock prices rallied and retreated as early optimism about the global economic outlook traded places with anxiety about Europe’s debt crisis and the contentious negotiations in Washington over raising the U.S. debt ceiling to avoid default. The policymaking strife prompted Standard & Poor’s to downgrade the U.S. credit rating. (Vanguard’s confidence in the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury remains unshaken.) By year-end, stock prices were again on the rise, with investors refocused on signs of economic improvement.

International stock prices finished the year with a double-digit decline. The weaker performance of stocks outside the United States reflected the greater economic and financial challenges in Europe, Japan’s struggles with natural and nuclear disaster, and skittishness about emerging markets.

As yields fell, bonds delivered unexpectedly strong returns
Bond returns were also a surprise, mainly because so little was expected of them. At the end of 2010, bond yields hovered near historical lows, suggesting that the scope for further declines—and rallies in bond prices—was limited. During 2011, however, rates moved lower still as investors sought shelter from stock market turmoil. The broad U.S. bond market returned 7.84%. Municipal bonds, which

were battered at the end of 2010, produced even stronger returns than taxable bonds in 2011.

The returns of the 3-month U.S. Treasury bill and other money market instruments approached 0%, which was consistent with the Federal Reserve Board’s interest rate policy but nevertheless a disappointment for savers.

Financial and tech stocks weighed on returns in the small-cap market
When investors lost their appetite for risk in the second half of 2011, small-cap stocks took the biggest fall. Shares of smaller firms—which typically have fewer financial and commercial resources than the market’s largest companies—underperformed larger-caps for the year. In each of our small-cap index funds, at least half of the sectors posted negative returns.

Financial stocks, the single largest industry sector weighting in both the Small-Cap Index Fund and the Small-Cap Value Index Fund, were the largest drag on those funds’ performance. The Small-Cap Growth Index Fund, which had a smaller weighting in financials, was less affected by the troubles that rippled through the sector. Regional banks, facing a tough lending environment because of high unemployment and the weak housing market, were poor performers. And investment banking and brokerage holdings were hit by the double whammy of low interest rates and market volatility, further depressing returns in all three funds.

Information technology stocks also had a difficult year. As concerns about the strength of the global economy clouded the outlook for technology spending, the stocks of semiconductor companies and manufacturers of electronic equipment were among those that fell. The sector’s weakness had a major impact on the Small-Cap Growth Index Fund, which—like the index it tracks—had more than a quarter of its holdings in tech stocks on average during the year.

Industrials, another sector that is keenly sensitive to the rhythms of the business cycle, also declined in 2011, weighing especially heavily on the returns of the Small-Cap Value Index Fund.

Health care holdings were a bright spot. Biotechnology shares, which tend to reflect developments in the lab rather than changes in the broader economy, performed strongly. Utilities stocks also did well, in part because they are relatively

insensitive to the economy’s ups and downs. In addition, they offer generous dividend yields, which have attracted investors’ interest in view of the low returns available from fixed income investments. Utilities stocks contributed most significantly to the Small-Cap Value Index Fund.

The Small-Cap Growth Index Fund got a boost from the strength of its consumer staples holdings. This sector is viewed as fairly insulated from the ups and downs of consumer spending, and investors bid up the stock prices of those food retailers and drug stores that have managed to grind out steady growth in an iffy economy.

Despite volatility, solid long-term performance
The year just ended was clearly a difficult one for small-cap stocks, presenting a vivid case study in stock market risk. The tumultuous period also reminds us why Vanguard always urges investors to take the measure of an investment over a longer time frame, which can put dramatic short-term ups and downs in a less alarming perspective.

As you can see in the table on page 7, for the decade ended December 31, 2011, each of the small-cap index funds produced an average annual return of 6% or more. Although that result is modest by the stock market’s historical standards, it was achieved during a period of unusual upheaval—including the tail-end of the dot-com bubble and the financial crisis of 2008, with its aftermath. Given the environment, those returns are better than one might have expected. It is interesting to note that, while simply trying to track their target indexes, two of these three funds topped the average returns of their peer groups over the decade.

Consistent with their objectives, all three funds did track their indexes closely. This is a tribute to the expertise of the funds’ advisor, Vanguard Quantitative Equity Group, and its team of seasoned professionals. With its proven portfolio management strategies, the group has been able to produce benchmark-tracking returns over the years regardless of market conditions.

The timelessand timelybenefits of balance in an investment plan
The market swings of 2011—while not as severe as the turmoil in 2008 and 2009—are a critical reminder about the uncertainties we have to manage when making investment decisions. The best defense against both the daunting knowns and the potentially more threatening unknowns is a well-balanced portfolio.

Recent Vanguard research provides insight on why balance and diversification are important in the face of the market’s unpredictability. One notable finding: Over the past 85 years, a hypothetical portfolio made up of 50% stocks and 50% bonds would have produced statistically equivalent returns whether the U.S. economy was in or out of recession. (The commentary, Recessions and Balanced Portfolio Returns, can be found at vanguard.com/research.

Vanguard has always advised long-term investors to develop a mix of stock, bond, and money market funds consistent with their time horizon and emotional ability to withstand the market’s occasionally frightening shocks. Any of the Vanguard Small-Cap Index Funds can be a valuable component of that carefully crafted portfolio.

Thank you for investing with Vanguard.

Sincerely,


F. William McNabb III

A note on expense ratios
The Expense Ratios table in each report’s Chairman’s Letter displays fund expense
ratios from the most recent prospectus. These figures include the funds’ actual
operating expenses. For some funds, the figures also include “acquired fund fees
and expenses,” which result from the funds’ holdings in business development
companies (BDCs).
 
Although the Securities and Exchange Commission requires that BDC costs be
included in a fund’s expense ratio, these fees are not incurred by the fund. They
have no impact on a fund’s total return or on its tracking error relative to an index.
A footnote to the Expense Ratios table reports an annualized calculation of the fund’s
actual expenses for the period, a more relevant tally of the operating costs incurred
by shareholders.

Small-Cap Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Small-Cap Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers six classes of shares: Investor Shares, Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, Institutional Shares, Institutional Plus Shares, and ETF Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, Institutional Shares, and Institutional Plus Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria. ETF Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc.; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Temporary cash investments acquired over 60 days to maturity are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Other temporary cash investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, enhancing returns, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The fund may seek to enhance returns by using futures contracts instead of the underlying securities when futures are believed to be priced more attractively than the underlying securities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (December 31, 2008–2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

4. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Small-Cap Index Fund

5. Security Lending: The fund may lend its securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. Security loans are required to be secured at all times by collateral at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Security lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on investing cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

6. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At December 31, 2011, the fund had contributed capital of $3,783,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.02% of the fund’s net assets and 1.51% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 22,881,536 686
Temporary Cash Investments 433,516 12,097

Total 23,314,854 12,097 686

The following table summarizes changes in investments valued based on Level 3 inputs during the year ended December 31, 2011. Transfers into or out of Level 3 are recognized based on values as of the date of transfer.

  Common Stocks
Amount valued based on Level 3 Inputs ($000)

Balance as of December 31, 2011 686

 

D. At December 31, 2011, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

 

        ($000)
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts Long (Short) (Depreciation)
E-mini Russell 2000 Index March 2012 706 52,159 1,130

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

E. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund realized $2,157,398,000 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions—in which shareholders exchanged fund shares for securities held by the fund rather than for cash. Because such gains are not taxable to the fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the fund had $5,474,000 of ordinary income available for distribution. The fund had available capital loss carryforwards totaling $1,225,242,000 to offset future net capital gains of $621,093,000 through December 31, 2017, and $604,149,000 through December 31, 2018.

At December 31, 2011, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $23,531,093,000. Net unrealized depreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $203,258,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $3,276,561,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $3,479,819,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

Small-Cap Growth Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Small-Cap Growth Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers four classes of shares: Investor Shares, Admiral Shares, Institutional Shares, and ETF Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares and Institutional Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria. Admiral Shares were first issued on September 27, 2011. ETF Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc.; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Temporary cash investments acquired over 60 days to maturity are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Other temporary cash investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, enhancing returns, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The fund may seek to enhance returns by using futures contracts instead of the underlying securities when futures are believed to be priced more attractively than the underlying securities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (December 31, 2008–2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

4. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

45


 

Small-Cap Growth Index Fund

5. Security Lending: The fund may lend its securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. Security loans are required to be secured at all times by collateral at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Security lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on investing cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

6. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At December 31, 2011, the fund had contributed capital of $1,299,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.02% of the fund’s net assets and 0.52% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 7,859,566 208
Temporary Cash Investments 145,474 2,999
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (46)
Total 8,004,994 2,999 208
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.

The following table summarizes changes in investments valued based on Level 3 inputs during the year ended December 31, 2011. Transfers into or out of Level 3 are recognized based on values as of the date of transfer.

  Common Stocks
Amount valued based on Level 3 Inputs ($000)

Balance as of December 31, 2011 208

 

D. At December 31, 2011, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

        ($000)
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts Long (Short) (Depreciation)
E-mini Russell 2000 Index March 2012 165 12,190 150

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

E. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund realized $786,038,000 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions—in which shareholders exchanged fund shares for securities held by the fund rather than for cash. Because such gains are not taxable to the fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the fund had $510,000 of ordinary income available for distribution. The fund had available capital loss carryforwards totaling $828,357,000 to offset future net capital gains of $567,239,000 through December 31, 2017, and $261,118,000 through December 31, 2018.

Small-Cap Growth Index Fund

At December 31, 2011, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $7,868,295,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $139,952,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $947,402,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $807,450,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

F. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund purchased $5,875,845,000 of investment securities and sold $5,403,242,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

(Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost.

Small-Cap Value Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Small-Cap Value Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers four classes of shares: Investor Shares, Admiral Shares, Institutional Shares, and ETF Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares and Institutional Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria. Admiral Shares were first issued on September 27, 2011. ETF Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc.; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Temporary cash investments acquired over 60 days to maturity are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Other temporary cash investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, enhancing returns, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The fund may seek to enhance returns by using futures contracts instead of the underlying securities when futures are believed to be priced more attractively than the underlying securities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (December 31, 2008–2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

4. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

63


 

Small-Cap Value Index Fund

5. Security Lending: The fund may lend its securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. Security loans are required to be secured at all times by collateral at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Security lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on investing cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

6. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At December 31, 2011, the fund had contributed capital of $1,044,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.02% of the fund’s net assets and 0.42% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 6,384,986 272
Temporary Cash Investments 61,252 2,350
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (53)
Total 6,446,185 2,350 272

The following table summarizes changes in investments valued based on Level 3 inputs during the year ended December 31, 2011. Transfers into or out of Level 3 are recognized based on values as of the date of transfer.

  Investments in
  Common Stocks
Amount valued based on Level 3 Inputs ($000)
Balance as of December 31, 2010
Transfers into Level 3 434
Transfers out of Level 3 (146)

Balance as of December 31, 2011 272

 

D. At December 31, 2011, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

        ($000)
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts Long (Short) (Depreciation)
E-mini Russell 2000 Index March 2012 190 14,037 217

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

E. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund realized $518,760,000 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions—in which shareholders exchanged fund shares for securities held by the fund rather than for cash. Because such gains are not taxable to the fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the fund had $2,883,000 of ordinary income available for distribution. The fund had available capital loss carryforwards totaling $1,178,212,000 to offset future net capital gains of $11,291,000 through December 31, 2016, $778,148,000 through December 31, 2017, and $388,773,000 through December 31, 2018.

At December 31, 2011, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $6,729,000,000. Net unrealized depreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $280,140,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $602,768,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $882,908,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of Vanguard Index Funds and the Shareholders of Vanguard Small-Cap Index Fund, Vanguard Small-Cap Growth Index Fund and Vanguard Small-Cap Value Index Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets-investments summary and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Vanguard Small-Cap Index Fund, Vanguard Small-Cap Growth Index Fund and Vanguard Small-Cap Value Index Fund (constituting separate portfolios of Vanguard Index Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at December 31, 2011, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and broker and by agreement to the underlying ownership records of Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Your Fund’s After-Tax Returns

This table presents returns for your fund both before and after taxes. The after-tax returns are shown in two ways: (1) assuming that an investor owned the fund during the entire period and paid taxes on the fund’s distributions, and (2) assuming that an investor paid taxes on the fund’s distributions and sold all shares at the end of each period.

Calculations are based on the highest individual federal income tax and capital gains tax rates in effect at the times of the distributions and the hypothetical sales. State and local taxes were not considered. After-tax returns reflect any qualified dividend income. (In the example, returns after the sale of fund shares may be higher than those assuming no sale. This occurs when the sale would have produced a capital loss. The calculation assumes that the investor received a tax deduction for the loss.)

The table shows returns for Investor Shares only; returns for other share classes will differ. Please note that your actual after-tax returns will depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. Also note that if you own the fund in a tax-deferred account, such as an individual retirement account or a 401(k) plan, this information does not apply to you. Such accounts are not subject to current taxes.

Finally, keep in mind that a fund’s performance—whether before or after taxes—does not guarantee future results.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund.

A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading ”Expenses Paid During Period.“

Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The funds’ annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are: for the Small-Cap Index Fund, 0.23% for Investor Shares, 0.10% for Admiral Shares, 0.10% for Signal Shares, 0.08% for Institutional Shares, 0.06% for Institutional Plus Shares, and 0.09% for ETF Shares; for the Small-Cap Growth Index Fund, 0.24% for Investor Shares, 0.08% for Institutional Shares, and 0.10% for ETF Shares; and for the Small-Cap Value Index Fund, 0.24% for Investor Shares, 0.08% for Institutional Shares, and 0.10% for ETF Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period. The table does not include data for share classes with less than six months of history.

Glossary

30-Day SEC Yield. A fund’s 30-day SEC yield is derived using a formula specified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Under the formula, data related to the fund’s security holdings in the previous 30 days are used to calculate the fund’s hypothetical net income for that period, which is then annualized and divided by the fund’s estimated average net assets over the calculation period. For the purposes of this calculation, a security’s income is based on its current market yield to maturity (for bonds), its actual income (for asset-backed securities), or its projected dividend yield (for stocks). Because the SEC yield represents hypothetical annualized income, it will differ—at times significantly—from the fund’s actual experience. As a result, the fund’s income distributions may be higher or lower than implied by the SEC yield.

Beta. A measure of the magnitude of a fund’s past share-price fluctuations in relation to the ups and downs of a given market index. The index is assigned a beta of 1.00. Compared with a given index, a fund with a beta of 1.20 typically would have seen its share price rise or fall by 12% when the index rose or fell by 10%. For this report, beta is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index. Note that a fund’s beta should be reviewed in conjunction with its R-squared (see definition). The lower the R-squared, the less correlation there is between the fund and the index, and the less reliable beta is as an indicator of volatility.

Dividend Yield. Dividend income earned by stocks, expressed as a percentage of the aggregate market value (or of net asset value, for a fund). The yield is determined by dividing the amount of the annual dividends by the aggregate value (or net asset value) at the end of the period. For a fund, the dividend yield is based solely on stock holdings and does not include any income produced by other investments.

Earnings Growth Rate. The average annual rate of growth in earnings over the past five years for the stocks now in a fund.

Equity Exposure. A measure that reflects a fund’s investments in stocks and stock futures. Any holdings in short-term reserves are excluded.

Expense Ratio. A fund’s total annual operating expenses expressed as a percentage of the fund’s average net assets. The expense ratio includes management and administrative expenses, but does not include the transaction costs of buying and selling portfolio securities.

Foreign Holdings. The percentage of a fund represented by securities or depositary receipts of companies based outside the United States.

Inception Date. The date on which the assets of a fund (or one of its share classes) are first invested in accordance with the fund’s investment objective. For funds with a subscription period, the inception date is the day after that period ends. Investment performance is measured from the inception date.

Median Market Cap. An indicator of the size of companies in which a fund invests; the midpoint of market capitalization (market price x shares outstanding) of a fund’s stocks, weighted by the proportion of the fund’s assets invested in each stock. Stocks representing half of the fund’s assets have market capitalizations above the median, and the rest are below it.

Price/Book Ratio. The share price of a stock divided by its net worth, or book value, per share. For a fund, the weighted average price/book ratio of the stocks it holds.

73


 

Price/Earnings Ratio. The ratio of a stock’s current price to its per-share earnings over the past year. For a fund, the weighted average P/E of the stocks it holds. P/E is an indicator of market expectations about corporate prospects; the higher the P/E, the greater the expectations for a company’s future growth.

R-Squared. A measure of how much of a fund’s past returns can be explained by the returns from the market in general, as measured by a given index. If a fund’s total returns were precisely synchronized with an index’s returns, its R-squared would be 1.00. If the fund’s returns bore no relationship to the index’s returns, its R-squared would be 0. For this report, R-squared is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index.

Return on Equity. The annual average rate of return generated by a company during the past five years for each dollar of shareholder’s equity (net income divided by shareholder’s equity). For a fund, the weighted average return on equity for the companies whose stocks it holds.

Short-Term Reserves. The percentage of a fund invested in highly liquid, short-term securities that can be readily converted to cash.

Turnover Rate. An indication of the fund’s trading activity. Funds with high turnover rates incur higher transaction costs and may be more likely to distribute capital gains (which may be taxable to investors). The turnover rate excludes in-kind transactions, which have minimal impact on costs.

The People Who Govern Your Fund

The trustees of your mutual fund are there to see that the fund is operated and managed in your best interests since, as a shareholder, you are a part owner of the fund. Your fund’s trustees also serve on the board of directors of The Vanguard Group, Inc., which is owned by the Vanguard funds and provides services to them on an at-cost basis.

A majority of Vanguard’s board members are independent, meaning that they have no affiliation with Vanguard or the funds they oversee, apart from the sizable personal investments they have made as private individuals. The independent board members have distinguished backgrounds in business, academia, and public service. Each of the trustees and executive officers oversees 180 Vanguard funds.

The following table provides information for each trustee and executive officer of the fund. More information about the trustees is in the Statement of Additional Information, which can be obtained, without charge, by contacting Vanguard at 800-662-7447, or online at vanguard.com.

Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

Stocks followed an upward, albeit uneven, trajectory amid signs of a solid economic recovery in the first half of 2011. The second half of the year was marked by renewed concerns about the strength of that rebound and worries over the sovereign-debt crisis in Europe. Amid that uncertainty, mid- and small-capitalization stocks produced negative returns.

For the full year the Investor Shares of the four Vanguard Mid-Capitalization Index Funds covered in this report posted returns ranging from –0.44% for Vanguard Mid-Cap Value Index Fund to –3.84% for Vanguard Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund. Vanguard Mid-Cap Index Fund, which holds both growth and value stocks, posted a return of –2.11%. Vanguard Extended Market Index Fund, which invests in small-caps as well as mid-cap companies, was the second-worst performer, with a return of –3.73% for the year.

Indexing can be a tax-efficient investment strategy. If you hold one of the four mid-cap funds in a taxable account, you may wish to review the after-tax returns that appear later in this report.

Big dramas and small numbers in the U.S. stock market
The broad U.S. stock market finished 2011 with a modestly positive return, a result that seems surprisingly low-key in light of the year’s dramatic ups and downs. Stock prices rallied and retreated as early optimism about the global economic outlook traded places with anxiety about Europe’s debt crisis and the contentious negotiations in Washington over raising the U.S. debt ceiling to avoid default. The policymaking strife prompted Standard & Poor’s to downgrade the U.S. credit rating. (Vanguard’s confidence in the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury remains unshaken.) By year-end, stock prices were again on the rise, with investors refocused on signs of economic improvement.

International stock prices finished the year with a double-digit decline. The weaker performance of stocks outside the United States reflected the greater economic and financial challenges in Europe, Japan’s struggles with natural and nuclear disaster, and skittishness about emerging markets.

As yields fell, bonds delivered unexpectedly strong returns
Bond returns were also a surprise, mainly because so little was expected of them. At the end of 2010, bond yields hovered near historical lows, suggesting that the scope for further declines—and rallies in bond prices—was limited. During 2011, however, rates moved lower still as investors sought shelter from stock market turmoil. The broad U.S. bond market returned 7.84%. Municipal bonds,

which were battered at the end of 2010, produced even stronger returns than taxable bonds in 2011.

The returns of the 3-month U.S. Treasury bill and other money market instruments approached 0%, which was consistent with the Federal Reserve Board’s interest rate policy but nevertheless a disappointment for savers.

Global concerns buffeted mid-sized stocks
As stock prices seemed to rise and fall in response to the economic and political dramas that dominated the headlines, small- and mid-cap stocks were among the weaker performers. While the end of the year brought some encouraging economic news in the United States, global threats were still weighing on markets. For the full 12 months, half of the industry sectors in all four Vanguard mid-cap index funds posted declines.

Information technology holdings were the biggest drag on performance for three of the four funds as concerns mounted about the pace of IT spending globally. Semiconductor stocks were particularly weak as the industry wrestled with excess inventory and weakening demand. And software holdings hampered returns, particularly for the Mid-Cap Index Fund and the Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund.

The tech sector’s weakness had less of an impact on the Mid-Cap Value Index Fund, which has less exposure to tech stocks than the three other funds.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, the funds’ expense ratios were: for the Extended Market Index Fund, 0.24% for Investor Shares, 0.10% for Admiral Shares, 0.10% for Signal Shares, 0.08% for Institutional Shares, 0.06% for Institutional Plus Shares (annualized since inception), and 0.10% for ETF Shares; for the Mid-Cap Index Fund, 0.24% for Investor Shares, 0.10% for Admiral Shares, 0.10% for Signal Shares, 0.08% for Institutional Shares, 0.06% for Institutional Plus Shares, and 0.10% for ETF Shares; for the Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund, 0.24% for Investor Shares, 0.10% for Admiral Shares (annualized since inception), and 0.10% for ETF Shares; and for the Mid-Cap Value Index Fund, 0.24% for Investor Shares, 0.10% for Admiral Shares (annualized since inception), and 0.10% for ETF Shares.

Financials were another weak spot. The Mid-Cap Value Index Fund, which had more than one-quarter of its assets in financial holdings on average for the year, had the largest exposure to financials; the Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund had the least. Commercial banks posted poor returns, thanks to slack loan demand and low interest rates. At the same time, capital markets stocks, including brokerage and asset management firms, pulled down the returns of all four funds as the market’s gyrations put pressure on trading and capital-raising activity.

Other sectors highly dependent on the economic cycle were also weak. Materials stocks lost ground in all four funds, and telecommunications holdings posted

double-digit declines as economic worries and intensifying competition dampened prospects for some companies.

Sectors with less economic sensitivity were strong performers. Utilities posted outsized returns for all four funds as investors flocked to the high dividend yields those stocks offer in an environment of low interest rates. And consumer staples, including beverage and food products stocks, also turned in solid gains as investors took comfort in the fact that consumers would continue to fill their supermarket baskets with necessities regardless of the economy’s path.

Short-term challenges, long-term strength
Despite an extended period of market turmoil, the four mid-cap index funds have delivered positive long-term returns. Over the past decade, the Investor Shares of Vanguard Extended Market Index Fund and Vanguard Mid-Cap Index Fund have produced average annual returns of 6.59% and 6.60%, respectively. The Investor Shares of the Vanguard Mid-Cap Growth and Mid-Cap Value Index Funds, which began operations in 2006, have returned 3.45% and 2.39%, respectively. All four funds have closely matched the performance of their indexes, which obviously bear none of the costs of managing a real-world portfolio.

That performance stems from the expertise of the funds’ advisor, Vanguard Quantitative Equity Group, and its team of seasoned professionals. The group relies on its proven portfolio management strategies to produce benchmark-tracking returns regardless of the external market conditions.

Three of the four mid-cap funds have produced long-term returns that best those of their peer groups, which consist largely of actively managed funds. Since its 2006 inception, Vanguard Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund’s return has trailed the average return of its industry peers.

The power of diversification in uncertain times
The market swings of 2011—while not as severe as the turmoil in 2008 and 2009—are a critical reminder of the uncertainties we have to manage when making investment decisions. The best defense against both the daunting knowns and the potentially more threatening unknowns is a well-balanced portfolio.

Recent Vanguard research provided insight on why balance and diversification are important in the face of the market’s unpredictability. One notable finding: Over the past 85 years, a hypothetical portfolio made up of 50% stocks and 50% bonds would have produced statistically equivalent returns whether the U.S. economy was in or out of recession.

Vanguard has long advised long-term investors to develop a mix of stock, bond, and money market funds consistent with their time horizon and emotional ability to withstand the market’s occasionally frightening shocks. The Vanguard Mid-Capitalization Index Funds can be a valuable component of such a broadly diversified portfolio.

As always, thank you for entrusting your assets to Vanguard.

Sincerely,


F. William McNabb III
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
January 18, 2012

A note on expense ratios
The Expense Ratios table in each report’s Chairman’s Letter displays fund expense
ratios from the most recent prospectus. These figures include the funds’ actual
operating expenses. For some funds, the figures also include “acquired fund fees
and expenses,” which result from the funds’ holdings in business development
companies (BDCs).
 
Although the Securities and Exchange Commission requires that BDC costs be
included in a fund’s expense ratio, these fees are not incurred by the fund. They
have no impact on a fund’s total return or on its tracking error relative to an index.
A footnote to the Expense Ratios table reports an annualized calculation of the fund’s
actual expenses for the period, a more relevant tally of the operating costs incurred
by shareholders.

Performance Summary

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

Extended Market Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Extended Market Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers six classes of shares: Investor Shares, Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, Institutional Shares, Institutional Plus Shares, and ETF Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, Institutional Shares, and Institutional Plus Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria. Institutional Plus Shares were first issued on January 14, 2011. ETF Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc.; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Temporary cash investments acquired over 60 days to maturity are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Other temporary cash investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, enhancing returns, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The fund may seek to enhance returns by using futures contracts instead of the underlying securities when futures are believed to be priced more attractively than the underlying securities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (December 31, 2008–2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

4. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

5. Security Lending: The fund may lend its securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. Security loans are required to be secured at all times by collateral at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market

27


 

Extended Market Index Fund

Liquidity Fund, and records a liability for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Security lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on investing cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

6. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At December 31, 2011, the fund had contributed capital of $2,909,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.02% of the fund’s net assets and 1.16% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 17,784,573 125
Temporary Cash Investments 228,393 3,000
Futures Contracts—Assets1 65
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (124)
Total 18,012,907 3,000 125
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.

Extended Market Index Fund

The following table summarizes changes in investments valued based on Level 3 inputs during the year ended December 31, 2011. Transfers into or out of Level 3 are recognized based on values as of the date of transfer.

  Investments in
  Common Stocks
Amount Valued Based on Level 3 Inputs ($000)
Balance as of December 31, 2010
Transfers into Level 3 367
Transfers out of Level 3 (68)
Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) (174)
Balance as of December 31, 2011 125

 

D. At December 31, 2011, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

        ($000)
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts Long (Short) (Depreciation)
E-mini Russell 2000 Index March 2012 606 44,771 252
E-mini S&P MidCap 400 Index March 2012 194 17,020 234

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

E. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund realized $504,460,000 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions—in which shareholders exchanged fund shares for securities held by the fund rather than for cash. Because such gains are not taxable to the fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the fund had $3,991,000 of ordinary income available for distribution. The fund had available capital loss carryforwards totaling $648,655,000 to offset future net capital gains of $1,525,000 through December 31, 2016, $622,546,000 through December 31, 2017, and $24,584,000 through December 31, 2018.

At December 31, 2011, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $17,334,804,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $681,287,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $3,331,925,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $2,650,638,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

Mid-Cap Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Mid-Cap Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers six classes of shares: Investor Shares, Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, Institutional Shares, Institutional Plus Shares, and ETF Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, Institutional Shares, and Institutional Plus Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria. ETF Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc.; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Temporary cash investments acquired over 60 days to maturity are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Other temporary cash investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, enhancing returns, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The fund may seek to enhance returns by using futures contracts instead of the underlying securities when futures are believed to be priced more attractively than the underlying securities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (December 31, 2008–2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

4. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

51


 

Mid-Cap Index Fund

5. Security Lending: The fund may lend its securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. Security loans are required to be secured at all times by collateral at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Security lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on investing cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

6. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At December 31, 2011, the fund had contributed capital of $4,278,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.02% of the fund’s net assets and 1.71% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 25,978,597
Temporary Cash Investments 122,125 1,000
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (53)
Total 26,100,669 1,000
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.

D. At December 31, 2011, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

        ($000)
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts Long (Short) (Depreciation)
E-mini S&P MidCap 400 Index March 2012 155 13,598 166

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

E. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund realized $1,142,995,000 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions—in which shareholders exchanged fund shares for securities held by the fund rather than for cash. Because such gains are not taxable to the fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the fund had $2,771,000 of ordinary income available for distribution. The fund had available capital loss carryforwards totaling $2,258,323,000 to offset future net capital gains of $1,696,225,000 through December 31, 2017, and $562,098,000 through December 31, 2018.

At December 31, 2011, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $24,694,667,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $1,407,055,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $4,130,466,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $2,723,411,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

F. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund purchased $9,774,554,000 of investment securities and sold $8,948,812,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers three classes of shares: Investor Shares, Admiral Shares, and ETF Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria. Admiral Shares were first issued on September 27, 2011. ETF Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc.; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value.

2. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (December 31, 2008–2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

3. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

4. Security Lending: The fund may lend its securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. Security loans are required to be secured at all times by collateral at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Security lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on investing cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

5. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in

68


 

Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund

capital contributions to Vanguard. At December 31, 2011, the fund had contributed capital of $356,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.02% of the fund’s net assets and 0.14% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

At December 31, 2011, 100% of the market value of the fund’s investments was based on Level 1 inputs.

D. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund realized $169,218,000 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions—in which shareholders exchanged fund shares for securities held by the fund rather than for cash. Because such gains are not taxable to the fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the fund had $119,000 of ordinary income available for distribution. The fund had available capital loss carryforwards totaling $286,740,000 to offset future net capital gains of $203,722,000 through December 31, 2017, and $83,018,000 through December 31, 2018. In addition, the fund realized losses of $26,046,000 during the period from November 1, 2011, through December 31, 2011, which are deferred and will be treated as realized for tax purposes in fiscal 2012.

At December 31, 2011, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $2,099,945,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $27,380,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $239,377,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $211,997,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

E. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund purchased $1,749,941,000 of investment securities and sold $1,500,703,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

Mid-Cap Value Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Mid-Cap Value Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers three classes of shares: Investor Shares, Admiral Shares, and ETF Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria. Admiral Shares were first issued on September 27, 2011. ETF Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc.; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value.

2. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (December 31, 2008–2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

3. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

4. Security Lending: The fund may lend its securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. Security loans are required to be secured at all times by collateral at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Security lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on investing cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

5. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At December 31, 2011, the fund had contributed capital of $242,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.02% of the fund’s net assets and 0.10% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

At December 31, 2011, 100% of the market value of the fund’s investments was based on Level 1 inputs.

D. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund realized $86,247,000 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions—in which shareholders exchanged fund shares for securities held by the fund rather than for cash. Because such gains are not taxable to the fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the fund had $139,000 of ordinary income available for distribution. The fund had available capital loss carryforwards totaling $139,259,000 to offset future net capital gains of $75,804,000 through December 31, 2017, and $63,455,000 through December 31, 2018.

At December 31, 2011, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $1,519,534,000. Net unrealized depreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $1,935,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $122,093,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $124,028,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

E. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund purchased $1,082,135,000 of investment securities and sold $962,673,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of Vanguard Index Funds and the Shareholders of Vanguard Extended Market Index Fund, Vanguard Mid-Cap Index Fund, Vanguard Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund and Vanguard Mid-Cap Value Index Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets—investments summary and statements of net assets and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Vanguard Extended Market Index Fund, Vanguard Mid-Cap Index Fund, Vanguard Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund and Vanguard Mid-Cap Value Index Fund (constituting separate portfolios of Vanguard Index Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at December 31, 2011, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and broker and by agreement to the underlying ownership records of Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Your Fund’s After-Tax Returns

This table presents returns for your fund both before and after taxes. The after-tax returns are shown in two ways: (1) assuming that an investor owned the fund during the entire period and paid taxes on the fund’s distributions, and (2) assuming that an investor paid taxes on the fund’s distributions and sold all shares at the end of each period.

Calculations are based on the highest individual federal income tax and capital gains tax rates in effect at the times of the distributions and the hypothetical sales. State and local taxes were not considered. After-tax returns reflect any qualified dividend income. (In the example, returns after the sale of fund shares may be higher than those assuming no sale. This occurs when the sale would have produced a capital loss. The calculation assumes that the investor received a tax deduction for the loss.)

The table shows returns for Investor Shares only; returns for other share classes will differ. Please note that your actual after-tax returns will depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. Also note that if you own the fund in a tax-deferred account, such as an individual retirement account or a 401(k) plan, this information does not apply to you. Such accounts are not subject to current taxes.

Finally, keep in mind that a fund’s performance—whether before or after taxes—does not guarantee future results.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund.

A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading ”Expenses Paid During Period.“

Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The funds’ annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are: for the Extended Market Index Fund, 0.24% for Investor Shares, 0.10% for Admiral Shares, 0.10% for Signal Shares, 0.08% for Institutional Shares, 0.06% for Institutional Plus Shares, and 0.10% for ETF Shares; for the Mid-Cap Index Fund, 0.23% for Investor Shares, 0.10% for Admiral Shares, 0.10% for Signal Shares, 0.08% for Institutional Shares, 0.06% for Institutional Plus Shares, and 0.10% for ETF Shares; for the Mid-Cap Growth Index Fund, 0.24% for Investor Shares and 0.10% for ETF Shares; and for the Mid-Cap Value Index Fund, 0.24% for Investor Shares and 0.10% for ETF Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period. The table does not include data for share classes with less than six months of history.

Glossary

30-Day SEC Yield. A fund’s 30-day SEC yield is derived using a formula specified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Under the formula, data related to the fund’s security holdings in the previous 30 days are used to calculate the fund’s hypothetical net income for that period, which is then annualized and divided by the fund’s estimated average net assets over the calculation period. For the purposes of this calculation, a security’s income is based on its current market yield to maturity (for bonds), its actual income (for asset-backed securities), or its projected dividend yield (for stocks). Because the SEC yield represents hypothetical annualized income, it will differ—at times significantly—from the fund’s actual experience. As a result, the fund’s income distributions may be higher or lower than implied by the SEC yield.

Beta. A measure of the magnitude of a fund’s past share-price fluctuations in relation to the ups and downs of a given market index. The index is assigned a beta of 1.00. Compared with a given index, a fund with a beta of 1.20 typically would have seen its share price rise or fall by 12% when the index rose or fell by 10%. For this report, beta is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index. Note that a fund’s beta should be reviewed in conjunction with its R-squared (see definition). The lower the R-squared, the less correlation there is between the fund and the index, and the less reliable beta is as an indicator of volatility.

Dividend Yield. Dividend income earned by stocks, expressed as a percentage of the aggregate market value (or of net asset value, for a fund). The yield is determined by dividing the amount of the annual dividends by the aggregate value (or net asset value) at the end of the period. For a fund, the dividend yield is based solely on stock holdings and does not include any income produced by other investments.

Earnings Growth Rate. The average annual rate of growth in earnings over the past five years for the stocks now in a fund.

Equity Exposure. A measure that reflects a fund’s investments in stocks and stock futures. Any holdings in short-term reserves are excluded.

Expense Ratio. A fund’s total annual operating expenses expressed as a percentage of the fund’s average net assets. The expense ratio includes management and administrative expenses, but does not include the transaction costs of buying and selling portfolio securities.

Foreign Holdings. The percentage of a fund represented by securities or depositary receipts of companies based outside the United States.

Inception Date. The date on which the assets of a fund (or one of its share classes) are first invested in accordance with the fund’s investment objective. For funds with a subscription period, the inception date is the day after that period ends. Investment performance is measured from the inception date.

Median Market Cap. An indicator of the size of companies in which a fund invests; the midpoint of market capitalization (market price x shares outstanding) of a fund’s stocks, weighted by the proportion of the fund’s assets invested in each stock. Stocks representing half of the fund’s assets have market capitalizations above the median, and the rest are below it.

Price/Book Ratio. The share price of a stock divided by its net worth, or book value, per share. For a fund, the weighted average price/book ratio of the stocks it holds.

95


 

Price/Earnings Ratio. The ratio of a stock’s current price to its per-share earnings over the past year. For a fund, the weighted average P/E of the stocks it holds. P/E is an indicator of market expectations about corporate prospects; the higher the P/E, the greater the expectations for a company’s future growth.

R-Squared. A measure of how much of a fund’s past returns can be explained by the returns from the market in general, as measured by a given index. If a fund’s total returns were precisely synchronized with an index’s returns, its R-squared would be 1.00. If the fund’s returns bore no relationship to the index’s returns, its R-squared would be 0. For this report, R-squared is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index.

Return on Equity. The annual average rate of return generated by a company during the past five years for each dollar of shareholder’s equity (net income divided by shareholder’s equity). For a fund, the weighted average return on equity for the companies whose stocks it holds.

Short-Term Reserves. The percentage of a fund invested in highly liquid, short-term securities that can be readily converted to cash.

Turnover Rate. An indication of the fund’s trading activity. Funds with high turnover rates incur higher transaction costs and may be more likely to distribute capital gains (which may be taxable to investors). The turnover rate excludes in-kind transactions, which have minimal impact on costs.

The People Who Govern Your Fund

The trustees of your mutual fund are there to see that the fund is operated and managed in your best interests since, as a shareholder, you are a part owner of the fund. Your fund’s trustees also serve on the board of directors of The Vanguard Group, Inc., which is owned by the Vanguard funds and provides services to them on an at-cost basis.

A majority of Vanguard’s board members are independent, meaning that they have no affiliation with Vanguard or the funds they oversee, apart from the sizable personal investments they have made as private individuals. The independent board members have distinguished backgrounds in business, academia, and public service. Each of the trustees and executive officers oversees 180 Vanguard funds.

The following table provides information for each trustee and executive officer of the fund. More information about the trustees is in the Statement of Additional Information, which can be obtained, without charge, by contacting Vanguard at 800-662-7447, or online at vanguard.com.

Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

Vanguard’s three large-capitalization stock index funds produced solid gains in the first half of 2011, but couldn’t escape the downward spiral of global stock markets in the latter half of the year. The funds ended the period with positive, but muted results.

For the 12 months ended December 31, 2011, Vanguard Growth Index Fund led the trio of large-cap index funds with a return of 1.71%; Vanguard Value Index Fund posted the weakest return, with 1.00%. As expected, Vanguard Large-Cap Index Fund, which blends the two styles, fell in between, returning 1.44%. (All returns are for the funds’ Investor Shares.)

All three funds closely tracked their target indexes for the year. Their returns were higher than the average returns of their respective peer groups.

If you hold any of these funds in a taxable account, you may wish to review the after-tax returns that appear later in this report.

Big dramas and small numbers in the U.S. stock market
The broad U.S. stock market finished 2011 with a modestly positive return, a result that seems surprisingly low-key in light of the economic and political dramas that monopolized investors’ attention for much of the year.

Stock prices rallied and retreated as early optimism about the global economic outlook traded places with anxiety about Europe’s debt crisis and the contentious negotiations in Washington over raising the U.S. debt ceiling to avoid default. The policymaking strife prompted Standard & Poor’s to downgrade the U.S. credit rating. (Vanguard’s confidence in the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury remains unshaken.) By year-end, stock prices were again on the rise, with investors refocused on signs of economic improvement.

International stock prices finished the year with a double-digit decline. The weaker performance of stocks outside the United States reflected the greater economic and

financial challenges in Europe, Japan’s struggles with natural and nuclear disaster, and skittishness about emerging markets.

As yields fell, bonds delivered unexpectedly strong returns
Bond returns were also a surprise, mainly because so little was expected of them. At the end of 2010, bond yields hovered near historical lows, suggesting that the scope for further declines—and rallies in bond prices—was limited. During 2011, however, rates moved lower still as investors sought shelter from stock market turmoil. The broad U.S. bond market returned 7.84%. Municipal bonds, which were battered at the end of 2010, produced even stronger returns than taxable bonds in 2011.

The returns of the 3-month U.S. Treasury bill and other money market instruments approached 0%, which was consistent with the Federal Reserve Board’s interest rate policy but nevertheless a disappointment for savers.

Investors gravitated toward large-cap growth stocks
Despite the extreme volatility in global stocks in the last eight months of the fiscal year, the returns of Vanguard’s three large-cap index funds outpaced that of the broad U.S. stock market. The funds benefited from prevailing trends in the broad market, notably, investors’ preference for the stocks of larger, more established companies as the markets began to retreat. In general, smaller companies have a higher potential for earnings growth, but also tend to be more volatile.

Of the three large-cap index funds, the Growth Index Fund performed best, surpassing its value counterpart for the third consecutive year.

Growth stocks are typically associated with industries such as technology that have opportunities for rapid increases in sales and earnings. These types of stocks can perform well when it appears the economy is heading into an upswing. At times during 2011, there were signs the economy was strengthening. But there were also moments of widespread pessimism, especially in the fall when the European debt crisis dominated the news.

Perhaps reflecting the year’s split personality, the Growth Index Fund’s best-performing sector was consumer staples—an area more commonly associated with value investing—which emphasizes owning companies in established industries. Consumer staples is considered a “defensive” sector because it’s made up of businesses such as pharmacies, supermarkets, and tobacco companies that can deliver consistent sales regardless of economic conditions.

Consumer discretionary stocks were another bright spot for the index as budget-conscious consumers frequented fast-food chains. The information technology sector benefited from robust corporate spending on technology throughout much of the year.

The Value Index Fund had the smallest gains for the fiscal year. The fund’s health care, energy, and utilities sectors produced respectable results, but the fund’s losses in financials—which represented nearly a quarter of its assets, on average—nearly wiped them out. Financial services companies and investment banks continued to struggle with the lingering aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis. These companies have had to cope with several

challenges during the year, including more stringent financial regulations, a sluggish U.S. recovery, low interest rates, and the ongoing anxiety around the European debt crisis and its potential impact on the global banking system.

The Large-Cap Index Fund, which includes both growth and value stocks, as I noted, produced returns slightly below that of the Growth Index Fund but above the Value Index Fund. The fund’s sizeable holdings in consumer staples and health care helped boost its returns, but as was the case with the Value Index Fund, its significant losses in financials overshadowed most of its gains.

A challenging decade weighed on the funds’ long-term returns
The stock market has endured a lot of turbulence over the past decade: the aftermath of the tech bubble, the financial crisis in 2008, and more recently, the U.S. and European debt dramas.

The funds’ longer-term results reflect this challenging period for U.S. stock markets. The Large-Cap Index Fund posted a modest 3.75% average annual return since its inception in early 2004. The Growth and Value Index Funds, which have been around longer, were further affected by the sharp market decline following the bursting of the tech bubble in 2000. The Growth Index Fund produced an average annual return of 2.88% for the full ten years, trailing that of the Value Index Fund, which produced an average annual return of 3.39% for the same period.

Although these results are anything but remarkable, as you can see in the table on page 7, all three large-cap index funds successfully tracked their benchmark indexes. The funds’ performance is a testament to their advisor, Vanguard Quantitative Equity Group, which has more than three decades of experience constructing index and trading methodologies that allow Vanguard to provide effective index-tracking fund management regardless of market conditions. This indexing strategy also benefits from the funds’ low operating expenses. Over the past decade, all three low-cost, broadly diversified funds produced higher returns than the average returns of their respective peer groups.

Diversification is even more critical in volatile market conditions
The stock market’s gyrations over the past year—and over the past decade—were unsettling for some investors. But times like this remind us how critical it is to maintain a diversified portfolio and a long-term perspective.

Recent Vanguard research continues to show why diversification is important. One surprising finding: Over the past 85

years, a hypothetical portfolio made up of 50% stocks and 50% bonds would have produced statistically equivalent returns whether the U.S. economy was in or out of recession. Although we’d all like to see higher returns and a more stable marketplace, the simple fact is that diversified portfolios have provided reasonable returns through some incredible turmoil.

An effective way to build such a well-balanced, diversified portfolio is to select stock, bond, and money market funds in proportions consistent with your goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance. It’s also important to diversify within an asset class, such as stocks; that way you get some access to whichever sectors or investing styles are in favor, and also some buffering when trends suddenly shift. Vanguard’s large-cap index funds can be a valuable component of that balanced investment portfolio.

Thank you for entrusting your assets to Vanguard.

Sincerely,


F. William McNabb III
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
January 12, 2012

Performance Summary

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.

Growth Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Growth Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers five classes of shares: Investor Shares, Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, Institutional Shares, and ETF Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, and Institutional Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria. ETF Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc.; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value.

2. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (December 31, 2008–2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

3. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

4. Security Lending: The fund may lend its securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. Security loans are required to be secured at all times by collateral at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Security lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on investing cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

5. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

Growth Index Fund

B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At December 31, 2011, the fund had contributed capital of $3,385,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.02% of the fund’s net assets and 1.35% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

At December 31, 2011, 100% of the market value of the fund’s investments was based on Level 1 inputs.

D. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund realized $84,222,000 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions—in which shareholders exchanged fund shares for securities held by the fund rather than for cash. Because such gains are not taxable to the fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the fund had $2,026,000 of ordinary income available for distribution. The fund had available capital loss carryforwards totaling $996,753,000 to offset future net capital gains through December 31, 2017. In addition, the fund realized losses of $103,237,000 during the period from November 1, 2011, through December 31, 2011, which are deferred and will be treated as realized for tax purposes in fiscal 2012. Capital loss carryforwards of $56,041,000 expired on December 31, 2011; accordingly, such losses have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

At December 31, 2011, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $17,285,130,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $3,635,383,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $4,437,338,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $801,955,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

Value Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Value Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers five classes of shares: Investor Shares, Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, Institutional Shares, and ETF Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, and Institutional Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria. ETF Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc.; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value.

2. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (December 31, 2008–2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

3. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

4. Security Lending: The fund may lend its securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. Security loans are required to be secured at all times by collateral at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Security lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on investing cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

5. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

Value Index Fund

B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At December 31, 2011, the fund had contributed capital of $2,374,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.02% of the fund’s net assets and 0.95% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

At December 31, 2011, 100% of the market value of the fund’s investments was based on Level 1 inputs.

D. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund realized $171,352,000 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions—in which shareholders exchanged fund shares for securities held by the fund rather than for cash. Because such gains are not taxable to the fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the fund had $4,262,000 of ordinary income available for distribution. The fund had available capital loss carryforwards of $1,585,546,000 to offset future net capital gains through December 31, 2017.

At December 31, 2011, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $15,562,323,000. Net unrealized depreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $658,389,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $1,461,393,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $2,119,782,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

E. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund purchased $4,995,794,000 of investment securities and sold $4,069,137,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

Large-Cap Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Large-Cap Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers five classes of shares: Investor Shares, Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, Institutional Shares, and ETF Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, and Institutional Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria. ETF Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc.; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Temporary cash investments acquired over 60 days to maturity are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Other temporary cash investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, enhancing returns, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The fund may seek to enhance returns by using futures contracts instead of the underlying securities when futures are believed to be priced more attractively than the underlying securities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (December 31, 2008–2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

4. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

74


 

Large-Cap Index Fund

5. Security Lending: The fund may lend its securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. Security loans are required to be secured at all times by collateral at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Security lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on investing cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

6. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At December 31, 2011, the fund had contributed capital of $835,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.02% of the fund’s net assets and 0.33% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 5,127,518
Temporary Cash Investments 9,678 1,100
Futures Contracts—Liabilities1 (24)
Total 5,137,172 1,100
1 Represents variation margin on the last day of the reporting period.

D. At December 31, 2011, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

        ($000)
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Appreciation
Futures Contracts Expiration Contracts Long (Short) (Depreciation)
S&P 500 Index March 2012 14 4,384 78
E-mini S&P 500 Index March 2012 30 1,879 (11)

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

E. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences are primarily attributed to tax deferral of losses on wash sales and will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund realized $51,378,000 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions—in which shareholders exchanged fund shares for securities held by the fund rather than for cash. Because such gains are not taxable to the fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the fund had $1,061,000 of ordinary income available for distribution. The fund had available capital loss carryforwards totaling $194,830,000 to offset future net capital gains of $43,673,000 through December 31, 2016, $117,390,000 through December 31, 2017, and $33,767,000 through December 31, 2018. In addition, the fund realized losses of $17,242,000 during the period from November 1, 2011, through December 31, 2011, which are deferred and will be treated as realized for tax purposes in fiscal 2012.

At December 31, 2011, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $4,738,419,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $399,877,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $869,990,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $470,113,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

F. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund purchased $1,120,706,000 of investment securities and sold $478,829,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of Vanguard Index Funds and the Shareholders of Vanguard Growth Index Fund, Vanguard Value Index Fund and Vanguard Large-Cap Index Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Vanguard Growth Index Fund, Vanguard Value Index Fund and Vanguard Large-Cap Index Fund (constituting separate portfolios of Vanguard Index Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Funds”) at December 31, 2011, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and broker and by agreement to the underlying ownership records of Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Your Fund’s After-Tax Returns

This table presents returns for your fund both before and after taxes. The after-tax returns are shown in two ways: (1) assuming that an investor owned the fund during the entire period and paid taxes on the fund’s distributions, and (2) assuming that an investor paid taxes on the fund’s distributions and sold all shares at the end of each period.

Calculations are based on the highest individual federal income tax and capital gains tax rates in effect at the times of the distributions and the hypothetical sales. State and local taxes were not considered. After-tax returns reflect any qualified dividend income. (In the example, returns after the sale of fund shares may be higher than those assuming no sale. This occurs when the sale would have produced a capital loss. The calculation assumes that the investor received a tax deduction for the loss.)

The table shows returns for Investor Shares only; returns for other share classes will differ. Please note that your actual after-tax returns will depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. Also note that if you own the fund in a tax-deferred account, such as an individual retirement account or a 401(k) plan, this information does not apply to you. Such accounts are not subject to current taxes.

Finally, keep in mind that a fund’s performance—whether before or after taxes—does not guarantee future results.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund.

A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading ”Expenses Paid During Period.“

Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.

The funds’ annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are: for the Growth Index Fund, 0.23% for Investor Shares, 0.10% for Admiral Shares, 0.10% for Signal Shares, 0.08% for Institutional Shares, and 0.10% for ETF Shares; for the Value Index Fund, 0.23% for Investor Shares, 0.10% for Admiral Shares, 0.10% for Signal Shares, 0.08% for Institutional Shares, and 0.10% for ETF Shares; and for the Large-Cap Index Fund, 0.24% for Investor Shares, 0.10% for Admiral Shares, 0.10% for Signal Shares, 0.08% for Institutional Shares, and 0.10% for ETF Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period.

Glossary

30-Day SEC Yield. A fund’s 30-day SEC yield is derived using a formula specified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Under the formula, data related to the fund’s security holdings in the previous 30 days are used to calculate the fund’s hypothetical net income for that period, which is then annualized and divided by the fund’s estimated average net assets over the calculation period. For the purposes of this calculation, a security’s income is based on its current market yield to maturity (for bonds), its actual income (for asset-backed securities), or its projected dividend yield (for stocks). Because the SEC yield represents hypothetical annualized income, it will differ—at times significantly—from the fund’s actual experience. As a result, the fund’s income distributions may be higher or lower than implied by the SEC yield.

Beta. A measure of the magnitude of a fund’s past share-price fluctuations in relation to the ups and downs of a given market index. The index is assigned a beta of 1.00. Compared with a given index, a fund with a beta of 1.20 typically would have seen its share price rise or fall by 12% when the index rose or fell by 10%. For this report, beta is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index. Note that a fund’s beta should be reviewed in conjunction with its R-squared (see definition). The lower the R-squared, the less correlation there is between the fund and the index, and the less reliable beta is as an indicator of volatility.

Dividend Yield. Dividend income earned by stocks, expressed as a percentage of the aggregate market value (or of net asset value, for a fund). The yield is determined by dividing the amount of the annual dividends by the aggregate value (or net asset value) at the end of the period. For a fund, the dividend yield is based solely on stock holdings and does not include any income produced by other investments.

Earnings Growth Rate. The average annual rate of growth in earnings over the past five years for the stocks now in a fund.

Equity Exposure. A measure that reflects a fund’s investments in stocks and stock futures. Any holdings in short-term reserves are excluded.

Expense Ratio. A fund’s total annual operating expenses expressed as a percentage of the fund’s average net assets. The expense ratio includes management and administrative expenses, but does not include the transaction costs of buying and selling portfolio securities.

Foreign Holdings. The percentage of a fund represented by securities or depositary receipts of companies based outside the United States.

Inception Date. The date on which the assets of a fund (or one of its share classes) are first invested in accordance with the fund’s investment objective. For funds with a subscription period, the inception date is the day after that period ends. Investment performance is measured from the inception date.

Median Market Cap. An indicator of the size of companies in which a fund invests; the midpoint of market capitalization (market price x shares outstanding) of a fund’s stocks, weighted by the proportion of the fund’s assets invested in each stock. Stocks representing half of the fund’s assets have market capitalizations above the median, and the rest are below it.

Price/Book Ratio. The share price of a stock divided by its net worth, or book value, per share. For a fund, the weighted average price/book ratio of the stocks it holds.

84


 

Price/Earnings Ratio. The ratio of a stock’s current price to its per-share earnings over the past year. For a fund, the weighted average P/E of the stocks it holds. P/E is an indicator of market expectations about corporate prospects; the higher the P/E, the greater the expectations for a company’s future growth.

R-Squared. A measure of how much of a fund’s past returns can be explained by the returns from the market in general, as measured by a given index. If a fund’s total returns were precisely synchronized with an index’s returns, its R-squared would be 1.00. If the fund’s returns bore no relationship to the index’s returns, its R-squared would be 0. For this report, R-squared is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index.

Return on Equity. The annual average rate of return generated by a company during the past five years for each dollar of shareholder’s equity (net income divided by shareholder’s equity). For a fund, the weighted average return on equity for the companies whose stocks it holds.

Short-Term Reserves. The percentage of a fund invested in highly liquid, short-term securities that can be readily converted to cash.

Turnover Rate. An indication of the fund’s trading activity. Funds with high turnover rates incur higher transaction costs and may be more likely to distribute capital gains (which may be taxable to investors). The turnover rate excludes in-kind transactions, which have minimal impact on costs.

The People Who Govern Your Fund

The trustees of your mutual fund are there to see that the fund is operated and managed in your best interests since, as a shareholder, you are a part owner of the fund. Your fund’s trustees also serve on the board of directors of The Vanguard Group, Inc., which is owned by the Vanguard funds and provides services to them on an at-cost basis.

A majority of Vanguard’s board members are independent, meaning that they have no affiliation with Vanguard or the funds they oversee, apart from the sizable personal investments they have made as private individuals. The independent board members have distinguished backgrounds in business, academia, and public service. Each of the trustees and executive officers oversees 180 Vanguard funds.

The following table provides information for each trustee and executive officer of the fund. More information about the trustees is in the Statement of Additional Information, which can be obtained, without charge, by contacting Vanguard at 800-662-7447, or online at vanguard.com.

Chairman’s Letter

Dear Shareholder,

In the first half of 2011, stocks followed an upward trajectory based on signs of a solid economic recovery. The second half of the year, however, was marked by renewed concerns about the strength of that rebound and worries over the sovereign-debt crisis in Europe. As those issues took center stage, stock prices retreated, resulting in a modestly positive return for the year.

Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund, which holds a mix of growth and value stocks across all market capitalizations, closely tracked the return of its benchmark, the MSCI US Broad Market Index, which gained 1.08% for the year. The average return of the fund’s peer group, which consists largely of actively managed stock funds, was –2.68%.

A broad stock market index fund can be a tax-efficient investment. If you hold the fund in a taxable account, you may wish to review the after-tax returns that appear later in this report.

Big dramas and small numbers in the U.S. stock market
The broad U.S. stock market’s subdued 2011 return was something of a surprise in light of economic and political dramas such as Europe’s debt crisis and high-stakes brinkmanship in Washington over raising the U.S. debt ceiling to avoid default. The policymaking strife prompted Standard & Poor’s to downgrade the U.S. credit rating. (Vanguard’s confidence in the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury remains unshaken.)

International stock prices finished the year with a double-digit decline. The weaker performance of stocks outside the United States reflected the greater economic and financial challenges in Europe, Japan’s struggles with natural and nuclear disaster, and skittishness about emerging markets.

As yields fell, bonds delivered unexpectedly strong returns
Bond returns were also a surprise, mainly because so little was expected of them. At the end of 2010, bond yields hovered near historical lows, suggesting that the scope for further declines—and rallies in bond prices—was limited. During 2011, however, rates moved lower still as investors sought shelter from stock market turmoil. The broad U.S. bond market returned 7.84%. Municipal bonds, which were battered at the end of 2010, produced even stronger returns than taxable bonds in 2011.

The returns of the 3-month U.S. Treasury bill and other money market instruments approached 0%, which was consistent with the Federal Reserve Board’s interest rate policy but nevertheless a disappointment for savers.

Economically sensitive sectors lagged
Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund, which tracks the performance of the broad U.S. stock market, was buffeted by concerns about debt woes in Europe and fears of a global economic slowdown.

As the year progressed, worries about a recession in Europe, the fallout from the

downgrading of U.S. debt, and signs of slowing growth in emerging markets increasingly weighed on investors’ minds, and the markets gave up much of their first-half gains.

The result was a bifurcation. Economically sensitive sectors posted major declines, while those less tied to the economic cycle generated solid returns. Consumer staples, health care, and utilities were the best performers for the year; financials and materials lagged.

Consumer staples stocks, including tobacco, household products, and food-related items, gave the fund the biggest boost. Weak income growth and persistently high unemployment cast doubt on the future pace of consumer spending. As a result, the market rewarded firms that sell necessities rather than those peddling products people are likely to forgo when they tighten their belts.

The fund also benefited from a hefty weighting in health care stocks. Pharmaceuticals, which are often viewed as safe havens in a weak economy, produced strong results. And utilities posted the best returns among all sectors as investors sought out their high dividend yields in a time of historically low interest rates. Because utilities account for a modest share of the stock market’s value, their strength had limited impact on the fund’s return.

The fund expense ratios shown are from the prospectus dated April 29, 2011, and represent estimated costs for the current fiscal year. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, the fund’s expense ratios were: 0.17% for Investor Shares, 0.05% for Admiral Shares, 0.05% for Signal Shares, 0.04% for Institutional Shares, and 0.05% for ETF Shares. The peer-group expense ratio is derived from data provided by Lipper Inc. and captures information through year-end 2010.

Financials dragged on performance, with diversified financial services stocks among the worst performers. While banks’ credit quality continued to improve and the number of failures declined, weak revenue growth at some of the largest banks and concerns about how much exposure those firms had to debt problems in Europe pushed their stocks lower. Regional banks didn’t fare much better because of weak loan demand and low interest rates. Capital markets firms, including investment banking and brokerage companies, posted poor returns as the low-interest-rate environment and the market’s gyrations clipped their earnings.

Materials and industrials holdings also lagged. While materials represent a relatively small portion of the overall market’s value, steep declines in metals and mining stock prices weighed on the fund’s return. In the industrials sector, weakness in economically sensitive markets such as machinery dampened results. And diminished expectations for IT spending hurt the performance of information technology, the stock market’s—and the fund’s—largest sector weighting.

Solid long-term performance amid volatility
Over the past ten years, Investor Shares of Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund have produced an average annual return of 3.75%, a modest result by historical standards that reflects an unusually volatile period in the stock market. Consistent with its objective,

The figures shown represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost.

the fund hewed close to its benchmark index over that period. The fund’s return was also more than 1 percentage point higher than the average return of its peer group.

The fund’s success reflects the skill of its advisor, the Vanguard Quantitative Equity Group. The group relies on its proven portfolio management strategies to produce benchmark-tracking returns regardless of external market conditions. At the same time, the fund’s low costs help you keep your share of the market’s returns.

Uncertain times, sound investing
There is no doubt that investors are weary from the roller-coaster ride of the past four years. The financial crisis and subsequent market recoveries and setbacks have produced high levels of volatility, which can make it challenging to remain committed to a long-term investment program. But those who fled the market amid its turmoil lost the opportunity to participate in future recoveries.

In our view, a balance among stock, bond, and money market funds consistent with an investor’s risk tolerance and time horizon is a useful ally in the never-ending struggle to maintain a long-term perspective amid the stock market’s jarring highs and lows. Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund, which provides exposure to the entire U.S. stock market at a low cost, can be a critical piece of that sound investment strategy.

As always, thank you for entrusting your assets to Vanguard.

Sincerely,


F. William McNabb III
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
January 18, 2012

A note on expense ratios
The Expense Ratios table in each report’s Chairman’s Letter displays fund expense
ratios from the most recent prospectus. These figures include the funds’ actual
operating expenses. For some funds, the figures also include “acquired fund fees
and expenses,” which result from the funds’ holdings in business development
companies (BDCs).
 
Although the Securities and Exchange Commission requires that BDC costs be
included in a fund’s expense ratio, these fees are not incurred by the fund. They
have no impact on a fund’s total return or on its tracking error relative to an index.
A footnote to the Expense Ratios table reports an annualized calculation of the
fund’s actual expenses for the period, a more accurate tally of the operating costs
incurred by shareholders.

Total Stock Market Index Fund

Notes to Financial Statements

Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund offers five classes of shares: Investor Shares, Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, Institutional Shares, and ETF Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares, Signal Shares, and Institutional Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, service, and account-size criteria. ETF Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc.; they can be purchased and sold through a broker.

A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.

1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that fund’s net asset value. Temporary cash investments acquired over 60 days to maturity are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Other temporary cash investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

2. Futures Contracts: The fund uses index futures contracts to a limited extent, with the objectives of maintaining full exposure to the stock market, enhancing returns, maintaining liquidity, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase futures contracts to immediately invest incoming cash in the market, or sell futures in response to cash outflows, thereby simulating a fully invested position in the underlying index while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The fund may seek to enhance returns by using futures contracts instead of the underlying securities when futures are believed to be priced more attractively than the underlying securities. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of stocks held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market.

Futures contracts are valued at their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the Statement of Net Assets. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).

3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its taxable income. Management has analyzed the fund’s tax positions taken for all open federal income tax years (December 31, 2008–2011), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is required in the fund’s financial statements.

4. Distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

22


 

Total Stock Market Index Fund

5. Security Lending: The fund may lend its securities to qualified institutional borrowers to earn additional income. Security loans are required to be secured at all times by collateral at least equal to the market value of securities loaned. The fund invests cash collateral received in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, and records a liability for the return of the collateral, during the period the securities are on loan. Security lending income represents fees charged to borrowers plus income earned on investing cash collateral, less expenses associated with the loan.

6. Other: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income includes income distributions received from Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund and is accrued daily. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.

Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At December 31, 2011, the fund had contributed capital of $26,813,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.02% of the fund’s net assets and 10.72% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Level 1Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).
Level 3Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions used to determine the fair value of investments).

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund’s investments as of December 31, 2011, based on the inputs used to value them:

  Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Investments ($000) ($000) ($000)
Common Stocks 166,475,714 28 423
Temporary Cash Investments 1,066,539 56,987

D. At December 31, 2011, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:

        ($000)
      Aggregate  
    Number of Settlement Unrealized
    Long (Short) Value Appreciation

S&P MidCap 400 Index March 2012 280 24,564 313

 

Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.

E. Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain, or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund realized $1,903,741,000 of net capital gains resulting from in-kind redemptions—in which shareholders exchanged fund shares for securities held by the fund rather than for cash. Because such gains are not taxable to the fund, and are not distributed to shareholders, they have been reclassified from accumulated net realized losses to paid-in capital.

For tax purposes, at December 31, 2011, the fund had $36,929,000 of ordinary income available for distribution. The fund had available capital losses totaling $4,029,067,000 to offset future net capital gains. Of this amount, $2,492,045,000 is subject to expiration dates; $209,043,000 may be used to offset future net capital gains through December 31, 2013, $19,516,000 through December 31, 2015, and $2,263,486,000 through December 31, 2016. Capital losses of $1,537,022,000 realized beginning in fiscal 2011 may be carried forward indefinitely but must be used before any expiring loss carryforwards.

Total Stock Market Index Fund

At December 31, 2011, the cost of investment securities for tax purposes was $153,874,303,000. Net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $13,725,388,000, consisting of unrealized gains of $32,385,406,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $18,660,018,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.

F. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the fund purchased $30,084,464,000 of investment securities and sold $12,045,501,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of Vanguard Index Funds and the Shareholders of Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund:

In our opinion, the statement of net assets–investments summary and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund (constituting a separate portfolio of Vanguard Index Funds, hereafter referred to as the “Fund”) at December 31, 2011, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Fund’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and broker and by agreement to the underlying ownership records of Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Your Fund’s After-Tax Returns

This table presents returns for your fund both before and after taxes. The after-tax returns are shown in two ways: (1) assuming that an investor owned the fund during the entire period and paid taxes on the fund’s distributions, and (2) assuming that an investor paid taxes on the fund’s distributions and sold all shares at the end of each period.

Calculations are based on the highest individual federal income tax and capital gains tax rates in effect at the times of the distributions and the hypothetical sales. State and local taxes were not considered. After-tax returns reflect any qualified dividend income. (In the example, returns after the sale of fund shares may be higher than those assuming no sale. This occurs when the sale would have produced a capital loss. The calculation assumes that the investor received a tax deduction for the loss.)

The table shows returns for Investor Shares only; returns for other share classes will differ. Please note that your actual after-tax returns will depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. Also note that if you own the fund in a tax-deferred account, such as an individual retirement account or a 401(k) plan, this information does not apply to you. Such accounts are not subject to current taxes.

Finally, keep in mind that a fund’s performance—whether before or after taxes—does not guarantee future results.

About Your Fund’s Expenses

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund.

A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.

The accompanying table illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:

Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The ”Ending Account Value“ shown is derived from the fund‘s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.

To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading ”Expenses Paid During Period.“

Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund‘s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect transaction costs incurred by the fund for buying and selling securities. Further, the expenses do not include any purchase, redemption, or account service fees described in the fund prospectus. If such fees were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not carry a “sales load.”

The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.

You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to your fund’s current prospectus.

The calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The fund’s annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are: 0.17% for Investor Shares, 0.05% for Admiral Shares, 0.05% for Signal Shares, 0.04% for Institutional Shares, and 0.05% for ETF Shares. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period.

Glossary

30-Day SEC Yield. A fund’s 30-day SEC yield is derived using a formula specified by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Under the formula, data related to the fund’s security holdings in the previous 30 days are used to calculate the fund’s hypothetical net income for that period, which is then annualized and divided by the fund’s estimated average net assets over the calculation period. For the purposes of this calculation, a security’s income is based on its current market yield to maturity (for bonds), its actual income (for asset-backed securities), or its projected dividend yield (for stocks). Because the SEC yield represents hypothetical annualized income, it will differ—at times significantly—from the fund’s actual experience. As a result, the fund’s income distributions may be higher or lower than implied by the SEC yield.

Beta. A measure of the magnitude of a fund’s past share-price fluctuations in relation to the ups and downs of a given market index. The index is assigned a beta of 1.00. Compared with a given index, a fund with a beta of 1.20 typically would have seen its share price rise or fall by 12% when the index rose or fell by 10%. For this report, beta is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index. Note that a fund’s beta should be reviewed in conjunction with its R-squared (see definition). The lower the R-squared, the less correlation there is between the fund and the index, and the less reliable beta is as an indicator of volatility.

Dividend Yield. Dividend income earned by stocks, expressed as a percentage of the aggregate market value (or of net asset value, for a fund). The yield is determined by dividing the amount of the annual dividends by the aggregate value (or net asset value) at the end of the period. For a fund, the dividend yield is based solely on stock holdings and does not include any income produced by other investments.

Earnings Growth Rate. The average annual rate of growth in earnings over the past five years for the stocks now in a fund.

Equity Exposure. A measure that reflects a fund’s investments in stocks and stock futures. Any holdings in short-term reserves are excluded.

Expense Ratio. A fund’s total annual operating expenses expressed as a percentage of the fund’s average net assets. The expense ratio includes management and administrative expenses, but does not include the transaction costs of buying and selling portfolio securities.

Foreign Holdings. The percentage of a fund represented by securities or depositary receipts of companies based outside the United States.

Inception Date. The date on which the assets of a fund (or one of its share classes) are first invested in accordance with the fund’s investment objective. For funds with a subscription period, the inception date is the day after that period ends. Investment performance is measured from the inception date.

Median Market Cap. An indicator of the size of companies in which a fund invests; the midpoint of market capitalization (market price x shares outstanding) of a fund’s stocks, weighted by the proportion of the fund’s assets invested in each stock. Stocks representing half of the fund’s assets have market capitalizations above the median, and the rest are below it.

Price/Book Ratio. The share price of a stock divided by its net worth, or book value, per share. For a fund, the weighted average price/book ratio of the stocks it holds.

31


 

Price/Earnings Ratio. The ratio of a stock’s current price to its per-share earnings over the past year. For a fund, the weighted average P/E of the stocks it holds. P/E is an indicator of market expectations about corporate prospects; the higher the P/E, the greater the expectations for a company’s future growth.

R-Squared. A measure of how much of a fund’s past returns can be explained by the returns from the market in general, as measured by a given index. If a fund’s total returns were precisely synchronized with an index’s returns, its R-squared would be 1.00. If the fund’s returns bore no relationship to the index’s returns, its R-squared would be 0. For this report, R-squared is based on returns over the past 36 months for both the fund and the index.

Return on Equity. The annual average rate of return generated by a company during the past five years for each dollar of shareholder’s equity (net income divided by shareholder’s equity). For a fund, the weighted average return on equity for the companies whose stocks it holds.

Short-Term Reserves. The percentage of a fund invested in highly liquid, short-term securities that can be readily converted to cash.

Turnover Rate. An indication of the fund’s trading activity. Funds with high turnover rates incur higher transaction costs and may be more likely to distribute capital gains (which may be taxable to investors). The turnover rate excludes in-kind transactions, which have minimal impact on costs.

The People Who Govern Your Fund

The trustees of your mutual fund are there to see that the fund is operated and managed in your best interests since, as a shareholder, you are a part owner of the fund. Your fund’s trustees also serve on the board of directors of The Vanguard Group, Inc., which is owned by the Vanguard funds and provides services to them on an at-cost basis.

A majority of Vanguard’s board members are independent, meaning that they have no affiliation with Vanguard or the funds they oversee, apart from the sizable personal investments they have made as private individuals. The independent board members have distinguished backgrounds in business, academia, and public service. Each of the trustees and executive officers oversees 180 Vanguard funds.

The following table provides information for each trustee and executive officer of the fund. More information about the trustees is in the Statement of Additional Information, which can be obtained, without charge, by contacting Vanguard at 800-662-7447, or online at vanguard.com.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of Vanguard Index Funds and the Shareholders of Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund: In our opinion, the statement of net assets–investments summary and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Vanguard Total Stock Market Index Fund (constituting a separate portfolio of Vanguard Index Funds, hereafter referred to as the "Fund") at December 31, 2011, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2011 by correspondence with the custodian and broker and by agreement to the underlying ownership records of Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
