Our pre-tax income is substantially derived from domestic restaurants. A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate to our effective tax rate for December 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and December 25, 2012 is as follows:
|  | December 30, 2014 |  | December 31, 2013 |  | December 25, 2012 |
Tax at statutory federal rate |  |  | 35.0 | % |  | 35.0 | % |  | 35.0 | %
State and local tax, net of federal benefit |  |  | 3.5 |  |  | 3.5 |  |  | 3.7 |
FICA tip tax credit |  |  | (6.9 | ) |  | (6.5 | ) |  | (6.2 | )
Work opportunity tax credit |  |  | (1.0 | ) |  | (1.7 | ) |  | (0.9 | )
Incentive stock options |  |  | (0.2 | ) |  | (0.7 | ) |  | (0.2 | )
Nondeductible officer compensation |  |  | 0.2 |  |  | 0.4 |  |  | 1.2 |
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests |  |  | (1.0 | ) |  | (1.1 | ) |  | — |
Other |  |  | 0.4 |  |  | — |  |  | 0.2 |
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Total |  |  | 30.0 | % |  | 28.9 | % |  | 32.8 | %
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
In 2012, we deducted net income attributable to noncontrolling interests from income before taxes as shown in our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income to determine the effective tax rate shown in the table above. The impact of including the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests would have reduced our effective tax rate to 32.0% for the year ended December 25, 2012. Components of deferred tax assets (liabilities) are as follows:
|  | December 30, 2014 |  | December 31, 2013 |
Deferred tax assets: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Insurance reserves |  | $ | 4,577 |  | $ | 3,876 |
Other reserves |  |  | 715 |  |  | 515 |
Deferred rent |  |  | 9,838 |  |  | 8,563 |
Share-based compensation |  |  | 5,336 |  |  | 5,246 |
Deferred revenue—gift cards |  |  | 5,524 |  |  | 3,860 |
Deferred compensation |  |  | 5,564 |  |  | 4,200 |
Other assets and liabilities |  |  | 2,972 |  |  | 3,311 |
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Total deferred tax asset |  |  | 34,526 |  |  | 29,571 |
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Deferred tax liabilities: |  |  |  |  |  |  |

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

Current deferred tax asset |  | $ | 2,773 |  | $ | 2,853 |

Net deferred tax liability |  | $ | (3,231 | ) | $ | (2,921 | )
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
We have not provided any valuation allowance as we believe the realization of our deferred tax assets is more likely than not. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending liability for unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
|  | Uncertain tax positions impacting tax rate |
Balance at December 25, 2012 |  | $ | 182 |
Additions to tax positions related to prior years |  |  | 102 |
Reductions due to exam settlements |  |  | (112 | )
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Balance at December 31, 2013 |  |  | 172 |
Additions to tax positions related to current year |  |  | — |
Reductions due to statute expiration |  |  | (43 | )
Reductions due to exam settlement |  |  | (15 | )
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Balance at December 30, 2014 |  | $ | 114 |
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
We recognize both interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits as part of income tax expense. As of December 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the total amount of accrued penalties and interest related to uncertain tax provisions was not material. All entities for which unrecognized tax benefits exist as of December 30, 2014 possess a December tax year-end. As a result, as of December 30, 2014, the tax years ended December 27, 2011, December 25, 2012 and December 31, 2013 remain subject to examination by all tax jurisdictions. As of December 30, 2014, no audits were in process by a tax jurisdiction that, if completed during the next twelve months, would be expected to result in a material change to our unrecognized tax benefits. Additionally, as of December 30, 2014, no event occurred that is likely to result in a significant increase or decrease in the unrecognized tax benefits through December 29, 2015.
