Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
INCOME TAXES | INCOME TAXES The Company’s provision for income taxes is based upon an estimated annual tax rate for the year applied to federal, state and foreign income. On a quarterly basis, the annual effective tax rate is adjusted, as appropriate, based upon changed facts and circumstances, if any, as compared to those forecasted at the beginning of the fiscal year and each interim period thereafter. The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 16% and 45%, respectively. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest were decreased for the lapse of the statute of limitations in a non-US jurisdiction for a tax holiday matter which, net of unrecognized foreign tax credits, resulted in a $55 million tax benefit. Additionally, an increase in the United Kingdom (“UK”) tax rate from 19% to 25% effective April 1, 2023 was enacted in June 2021 resulting in a discrete tax benefit of $20 million as a result of the revaluation of net deferred tax asset balances. Further, the Company’s effective tax rate includes a net discrete tax benefit of $24 million primarily related to changes to certain withholding rates applied to unremitted earnings. The 2020 rate was unfavorably impacted by $94 million of restructuring expenses and merger, acquisition and divestiture expenses that were largely non-deductible for tax purposes, resulting in only $9 million of tax benefit being recognized. This rate was further unfavorably impacted by $26 million of asset impairment charges for which no tax benefit was recognized as full valuation allowances were recorded against the corresponding deferred tax assets. The Company also recorded reductions in income tax expense of $10 million for other one-time adjustments primarily related to tax law changes in India that were enacted during the first three months of 2020 and the release of certain unrecognized tax benefits due to the closure of an audit. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 9% and 6%, respectively. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2021, unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest were decreased for the lapse of the statute of limitations in a non-US jurisdiction for a tax holiday matter which, net of unrecognized foreign tax credits, resulted in a $55 million tax benefit. Additionally, an increase in the UK tax rate from 19% to 25% effective April 1, 2023 was enacted in June 2021 resulting in a discrete tax benefit of $20 million as a result of the revaluation of net deferred tax asset balances. The 2020 rate includes restructuring expenses, merger, acquisition and divestiture expenses, and asset impairment costs that are largely non-deductible for tax purposes. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded $75 million of such expenses for which only a $5 million tax benefit was recognized. The annual effective tax rates differ from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to foreign rates which vary from those in the U.S., jurisdictions with pretax losses for which no tax benefit could be realized, U.S. taxes on foreign earnings, the realization of certain business tax credits (including foreign tax credits), and permanent differences between book and tax treatment for certain items (including equity in affiliates’ earnings).
