A reconciliation of the United States federal statutory income tax rate to the effective income tax rate on operations for the years ended December 31 is provided below:
|  | For the year ended December 31,
In millions |  | 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2021
U.S. federal statutory rate |  | 21.0 | % |  | 21.0 | % |  | 21.0 | %
State taxes |  | 1.5 |  |  | 2.0 |  |  | 0.3 |
Foreign |  | 2.0 |  |  | 3.8 |  |  | 3.3 |

Effective rate |  | 24.5 | % |  | 25.0 | % |  | 23.2 | %
The decrease in effective tax rate from 2022 to 2023 was primarily due to a change in mix of foreign earnings, changes in valuation allowances, and the non-taxable gain generated on the acquisition of LKZ. The increase in effective tax rate from 2021 to 2022 was primarily due to the absence of benefit from amended federal and state income tax returns that were filed in 2021 and higher foreign taxes, partially offset by the change in valuation allowance. On August 16, 2022, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 was signed into law. This act includes a new book minimum tax on certain large corporations and an excise tax on corporate stock buybacks among other provisions. At this time, the Company does not believe the act will have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Components of deferred tax assets and liabilities were as follows:
|  | December 31,
In millions |  | 2023 |  | 2022
Deferred income tax assets: |  |  |  |
Accrued expenses and reserves |  | $ | 50 |  |  | $ | 39 |
Warranty reserve |  | 49 |  |  | 49 |
Deferred compensation/employee benefits |  | 77 |  |  | 61 |
Right-of-use assets |  | 78 |  |  | 74 |
Pension and postretirement obligations |  | 16 |  |  | 19 |
Inventory |  | 49 |  |  | 49 |
Deferred revenue |  | 84 |  |  | 52 |
Net operating loss carry forwards |  | 124 |  |  | 102 |
Other |  | 51 |  |  | 37 |
Gross deferred income tax assets |  | 578 |  |  | 482 |
Less: Valuation allowance |  | (58) |  |  | (46) |
Total deferred income tax assets |  | 520 |  |  | 436 |
Deferred income tax liabilities: |  |  |  |
Property, plant & equipment |  | 64 |  |  | 78 |
Right-of-use liabilities |  | 75 |  |  | 72 |
Intangible assets |  | 610 |  |  | 542 |
Total deferred income tax liabilities |  | 749 |  |  | 692 |
Net deferred income tax liability |  | $ | 229 |  |  | $ | 256 |
A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2023, the valuation allowance for certain deferred tax asset carryforwards was $58 million, primarily in the United States, South Africa, China, the Netherlands, and Denmark. The increase in valuation allowances in 2023 is primarily related to state net operating loss carry-forwards that are not expected to be realized. The Company has net operating loss carry-forwards in the amount of $430 million, of which $228 million are indefinite lived, $90 million expire within ten years and $112 million expire in various periods between December 31, 2034 to December 31, 2043. As of December 31, 2023, the liability for income taxes associated with unrecognized tax benefits was $40 million, of which $27 million, if recognized, would favorably affect the Company’s effective income tax rate. As of December 31, 2022, the liability for income taxes associated with unrecognized tax benefits was $33 million, of which $20 million, if recognized, would favorably affect the Company’s effective income tax rate. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of the gross liability for income taxes associated with unrecognized tax benefits follows:
In millions |  | 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2021
Balance at beginning of year |  | $ | 33 |  |  | $ | 32 |  |  | $ | 16 |
Unrecognized tax benefits in prior periods |  | 13 |  |  | 1 |  |  | 19 |
Audit settlement during year |  | (5) |  |  | — |  |  | (1) |
Expiration of audit statute of limitations |  | (1) |  |  | — |  |  | (2) |
Balance at end of year |  | $ | 40 |  |  | $ | 33 |  |  | $ | 32 |
The Company includes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the total interest and penalties accrued was approximately $13 million and $5 million, respectively. An audit of Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for years 2017-2019 is ongoing and select state and non-U.S. income tax audits are also underway. With limited exception, the Company is no longer subject to examination by various U.S. and foreign taxing authorities for years before 2018. At this time, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $17 million may change within the next 12 months due to the expiration of statutory review periods and current examinations.
