Income Taxes [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | 6 Income Taxes The Company's effective tax rate was 15.3% and 15.0% for the three months ended April 4, 2015 and March 29, 2014, respectively. The Company accounts for its uncertain tax return reporting positions in accordan ce with the accounting standards for income taxes, which require financial statement reporting of the expected future tax consequences of uncertain tax reporting positions on the presumption that all concerned tax authoriti es possess full knowledge of those reporting positions, as well as all of the pertinent facts and circumstances, but prohibit any discounting of u nrecognized tax benefits associated with those reporting positions for the time value of money. The following is a summary of the activity of the Company's unrecognized tax benefits for the three months ended April 4, 2015 and March 29, 2014 (in thousands):
|  |  | April 4, 2015 |  | March 29, 2014
Balance at the beginning of the period |  | $ | 19,596 |  | $ | 24,716
| Net changes in uncertain tax benefits |  |  | 933 |  |  | (812)
Balance at the end of the period |  | $ | 20,529 |  | $ | 23,904
With limited exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to tax audit examinations in significant jurisdictions for the years ended on or before December 31, 200 7. However, carryforward attributes that were generated in years beginning on or before January 1, 2010 may still be adjusted upon examination by tax authorities if the attributes are utilized. The Company continuously monitors the lapsing of statutes of limitations on potential tax assessments for related changes in the measurement of unrecognized tax benefits, related net interest and penalties, and deferred tax assets and liabilities. As of April 4, 2015, the Company expects to record additional reductions in the measurement of its unrecognized tax benefits and related net interest and penalties of approximately $5 million within the next twelve months due to the lapsing of statutes of limitations on potential tax assessments. The Company does not expect to record any other material reductions in the measurement of its unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.
