Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes: The effective income tax rate for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 was 16.0%, compared to 24.4% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019. The Company’s effective income tax rate fluctuates based on, among other factors, its level and location of income. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and our effective income tax rate for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 was impacted by a variety of factors, primarily stemming from the location in which income was earned. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, this was mainly attributable to our share of the income of our Jordan Bromine Company Limited (“JBC”) joint venture, a Free Zones company under the laws of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and our effective income tax rate for the three-months ended March 31, 2019 was impacted by a variety of factors, primarily stemming from the location in which income was earned and discrete net tax expenses primarily related to uncertain tax positions.
