Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Tax Disclosure | Note 10: Income Taxes Our effective tax rate was 14.8% and 0.2% i n the quarters ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate in the quarter ended September 30, 2022 includes a benefit of approximately 4 percentage points primarily related to an incremental Foreign Derived Intangible Income (FDII) benefit and other effects created by the capitalization of research or experimental expenditures for tax-purposes, which was enacted as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and became effective on January 1, 2022. Tax expense in the quarter ended September 30, 2021 includes deferred tax benefits of $244 million associated with legal entity and operational reorganizations implemented in the third quarter of 2021. Our effective tax rate was 11.8% and 17.0% in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 includes a benefit of approximately 5 percentage points primarily related to an incremental FDII benefit and other effects created by the capitalization of research or experimental expenditures for tax-purposes, which was enacted as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and became effective on January 1, 2022. Tax expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 includes deferred tax benefits of $244 million associated with legal entity and operational reorganizations implemented in the third quarter of 2021, tax charges incremental to the U.S. statutory rate of $148 million associated with the sale of the Forcepoint business, as described in “Note 2: Acquisitions, Dispositions, Goodwill and Intangible Assets,” and $73 million associated with the revaluation of deferred taxes resulting from the increase in the United Kingdom (U.K.) corporate tax rate to 25% enacted in 2021. Subsequently, in the fourth quarter of 2021, we recognized an incremental $104 million tax benefit due to the revaluation of the Forcepoint tax benefit as a result of completing the divestiture of RIS’s global training and services business. We conduct business globally and, as a result, Raytheon Technologies or one or more of our subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business we are subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world, including such major jurisdictions as Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Poland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations for years before 2012. In the ordinary course of business, there is inherent uncertainty in quantifying our income tax positions. We assess our income tax positions and record tax benefits for all years subject to examination based upon management’s evaluation of the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date. It is reasonably possible that a net reduction within the range of $20 million to $400 million of unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next 12 months as a result of the revaluation of uncertain tax positions arising from developments in examinations, in appeals, or in the courts, the closure of tax statutes, or the issuance of legislation, regulatory or other guidance. Management has determined that the distributions of Carrier and Otis on April 3, 2020, and certain related internal business separation transactions, qualified as tax-free under applicable law. In making these determinations, we applied the tax law in the relevant jurisdictions to our facts and circumstances and obtained tax rulings from the relevant taxing authorities, tax opinions, and/or other external tax advice related to the concluded tax treatment. If the completed distributions of Carrier or Otis, in each case, or certain internal business separation transactions, were to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment, the Company could be subject to significant liabilities, and there could be material adverse impacts on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in future reporting periods. The Examination Division of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is currently auditing Raytheon Technologies tax years 2017 and 2018 and pre-merger Raytheon Company tax periods 2017, 2018 and 2019 as well as certain refund claims of Raytheon Company for tax years 2014, 2015 and 2016 filed prior to the Raytheon merger. The audit of each of these tax years is expected to continue into 2023. The Examination Division of the IRS is also auditing pre-acquisition Rockwell Collins fiscal tax years 2016, 2017 and 2018. The audit of each of these tax years is projected to close during 2023.
