Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Effective income tax rate Income tax expense and the effective income tax rate were as follows:
| Three Months Ended December 31, |  | Nine Months Ended December 31,
| 2019 |  | 2018 |  | 2019 |  | 2018
Income tax expense | $ | 55,010 |  |  | $ | 48,293 |  |  | $ | 64,169 |  |  | $ | 55,052 |
Effective income tax rate | 21.4 | % |  | 19.7 | % |  | 19.8 | % |  | 18.6 | %
The tax provisions for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 were computed using the estimated effective income tax rates applicable to each of the domestic and foreign taxable jurisdictions for the full fiscal year and were adjusted for discrete items that occurred within the periods presented. During the three months ended December 31, 2019, the increase in the effective income tax rate, compared to the prior period, was due to changes in the jurisdictional mix of worldwide income before income taxes forecasted for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2020, as well as higher discrete tax expenses, primarily driven by additional reserves for uncertain tax positions and unfavorable return to provision differences, partially offset by a discrete tax benefit for the release of tax reserves recognized during the current period. During the nine months ended December 31, 2019, the increase in the effective income tax rate, compared to the prior period, was due to changes in the jurisdictional mix of worldwide income before income taxes forecasted for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2020, as well as higher net discrete tax expenses, primarily driven by additional reserves for uncertain tax positions and unfavorable return to provision adjustments, partially offset by the favorable settlement of a state income tax audit completed during the current period. Due to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Reform Act) in December 2017, the Company is subject to US taxation of its foreign subsidiary earnings considered global intangible low-taxed income, as well as limitations on the deductibility of executive compensation, which are included in income tax expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the periods presented above. The Company continues to evaluate new guidance and legislation as it is issued. Unrecognized Tax Benefits During the nine months ended December 31, 2019, the amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits and associated penalties and interest increased by $4,839 to $18,237. This change is primarily related to increases in prior year tax position reserves of $2,050 and $6,061, recorded in income taxes payable and in income tax liability, respectively, in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These increases were partially offset by a $3,272 release of reserves due to a lapse in a statute of limitations recorded in income tax expense, as well as interest expense for accrued penalties and interest, in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
