Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | INCOME TAXES Uncertain Tax Positions As of December 26, 2015, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $32.1 million, and the gross amount of liability for accrued interest related to unrecognized tax benefits was $19.4 million. It is reasonably possible that the amount of the unrecognized tax benefits with respect to certain of the company’s unrecognized tax positions will increase or decrease in the next twelve months, either because Sysco prevails on positions that were being challenged upon audit or because the company agrees to their disallowance. Items that may cause changes to unrecognized tax benefits primarily include the consideration of various filing requirements in numerous states and the allocation of income and expense between tax jurisdictions. At this time, an estimate of the range of the reasonably possible change cannot be made. Effective Tax Rate Sysco’s effective tax rate is reflective of the jurisdictions where the company has operations. In the second quarter of fiscal 2016, the company favorably resolved a tax contingency resulting in a tax benefit of $20.8 million. In the second quarter of fiscal 2015, the tax rate was impacted by reduced state taxes from legal restructuring and a benefit related to disqualifying dispositions of Sysco's stock pursuant to share-based compensation arrangements. Indefinitely reinvested earnings taxed at foreign statutory rates less than our domestic tax rate have the impact of reducing the effective tax rate in both periods. The effective tax rates for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015 were 30.71% and 33.12%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the first 26 weeks of fiscal 2016 of 33.31% was favorably impacted by the resolution of a tax contingency in the second quarter of fiscal 2016. The effective tax rate for the first 26 weeks of fiscal 2015 of 35.10% was favorably impacted by lower state taxes. Indefinitely reinvested earnings taxed at foreign statutory rates less than our domestic tax rate have the impact of reducing the effective tax rate in both periods. Other The determination of the company’s provision for income taxes requires significant judgment, the use of estimates and the interpretation and application of complex tax laws. The company’s provision for income taxes reflects a combination of income earned and taxed in the various U.S. federal and state, as well as foreign, jurisdictions. Jurisdictional tax law changes, increases or decreases in permanent differences between book and tax items, accruals or adjustments of accruals for unrecognized tax benefits or valuation allowances, and the company’s change in the mix of earnings from these taxing jurisdictions all affect the overall effective tax rate.
