Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, we recorded $50.0 million and $34.4 million of income tax expense and had an effective tax rate of 35.7% and 35.6%, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the primary reason for the difference from the federal statutory income tax rate of 35.0% was the effect of state and local income taxes, and the domestic manufacturers’ deduction.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, there were no significant changes to our uncertain tax positions. For more information, see Note 5, Income Taxes, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in our 2013 Form 10-K.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, cash paid for taxes, net of refunds received, was $1.7 million and $4.1 million, respectively.
