Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes During the six months ended June 30, 2022, gross unrecognized tax benefits decreased by $97.8 million to $26.8 million. The decrease is primarily related to the effective settlement of unrecognized tax benefits during the quarter. If recognized, approximately $26.7 million of the $26.8 million in unrecognized tax benefits would affect our effective tax rate and net earnings in future periods. We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of our income tax provision. We had accrued interest and penalties totaling $4.5 million and $31.1 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, that were included in other noncurrent liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accounting for uncertain tax positions is determined by prescribing the minimum probability threshold that a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained based on the technical merits of the position. Mosaic is continually under audit by various tax authorities in the normal course of business. Such tax authorities may raise issues contrary to positions taken by the Company. If such positions are ultimately not sustained by the Company, this could result in material assessments to the Company. The costs related to defending, if needed, such positions on appeal or in court may be material. The Company believes that any issues raised have been properly accounted for in its current financial statements. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, discrete tax expense was approximately $13.7 million. This consisted primarily of tax cost related to prior year estimates, interest of effectively settled unrecognized tax benefits and other miscellaneous costs. In addition to items specific to the period, our income tax rate is impacted by the mix of earnings across the jurisdictions in which we operate, by a benefit associated with depletion, a benefit associated with non-U.S. incentives, changes in valuation allowances and by the impact of certain entities being taxed in both their foreign jurisdiction and the U.S., including foreign tax credits for various taxes incurred. Generally, for interim periods, income tax is equal to the total of (1) year-to-date pretax income multiplied by our forecasted effective tax rate plus (2) tax expense items specific to the period. In situations where we expect to report losses for which we do not expect to receive tax benefits, we are required to apply separate forecasted effective tax rates to those jurisdictions rather than including them in the consolidated effective tax rate. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, income tax expense was not impacted by this set of rules. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, discrete tax expense was approximately $4.7 million. This consisted primarily of tax cost related to prior year estimates, interest of effectively settled unrecognized tax benefits, shared-based excess benefit, and other miscellaneous costs. In addition to items specific to the period, our income tax rate is impacted by the mix of earnings across the jurisdictions in which we operate, by a benefit associated with depletion, by a benefit associated with non-U.S. incentives, by changes in valuation allowances and by the impact of certain entities being taxed in both their foreign jurisdiction and the U.S., including foreign tax credits for various taxes incurred.
