Income Taxes | Note 13. Income Taxes During 2015, as part of our ongoing remediation efforts related to the material weakness in internal controls over the accounting for income taxes, we recorded out-of-period adjustments that had an immaterial impact on the provision for income taxes of $4 million for the three months and $11 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. During 2014, we recorded immaterial out-of-period adjustments of $5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. The out-of-period adjustments were not material to the consolidated financial statements for any prior period. Based on current tax laws, our estimated annual effective tax rate for 2015 is 19.0%, reflecting favorable impacts from the mix of pre-tax income in various non-U.S. tax jurisdictions. Our 2015 second quarter effective tax rate of 19.0% included net tax expense from $8 million of discrete one-time events. The discrete net tax expense primarily consisted of $22 million related to the sale of our interest in AGF, partially offset by $11 million related to favorable audit settlements and expirations of statutes of limitations in several jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2015 of 22.4% was unfavorably impacted by net tax expense from $33 million of discrete one-time events. The discrete net tax expense primarily consisted of $54 million of tax charges related to the sale of our interest in AGF ($32 million in the first quarter upon the investment’s change to held-for-sale status and an additional $22 million upon the closing of the sale in the second quarter), partially offset by $33 million from favorable audit settlements and expirations of statutes of limitations in several jurisdictions. As of the second quarter of 2014, our estimated annual effective tax rate for 2014 was 19.6%, reflecting favorable impacts from the mix of pre-tax income in various non-U.S. tax jurisdictions, partially offset by the remeasurement of our Venezuelan net monetary assets. Our 2014 second quarter effective tax rate of 12.4% was favorably impacted by net tax benefits from $52 million of discrete one-time events, of which $37 million related to tax return to provision adjustments and $9 million related to favorable tax audit settlements and expirations of statutes of limitations in several jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2014 of 7.5% was due to tax benefits from discrete one-time events and lower pre-tax income due to the tender-related loss on debt extinguishment and the remeasurement of the Venezuela net monetary assets. Of the discrete net tax benefits of $104 million, $60 million related to favorable tax audit settlements and expirations of statutes of limitations in several jurisdictions and $37 million related to tax return to provision adjustments.
