During the fiscal years ended October 31, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively, $8,459, $8,857, and $6,134 was added to stockholders' equity reflecting the permanent book to tax difference in accounting for tax benefits related to employee stock-based award transactions. The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to the net deferred income tax assets are presented below:
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​

Deferred tax assets (liabilities): |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Compensation and benefits |  | $ | 41,341 |  | $ | 40,412 |
Warranty and insurance |  |  | 12,067 |  |  | 8,787 |

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Deferred tax assets |  | $ | 68,457 |  | $ | 72,909 |
Valuation allowance |  |  | (1,801 | ) |  | (4,012 | )
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Net deferred tax assets |  | $ | 66,656 |  | $ | 68,897 |
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
The valuation allowance as of October 31, 2015 and 2014 principally applies to capital loss carryforwards and foreign net operating loss carryforwards that are expected to expire prior to utilization. In fiscal 2015, the valuation allowance decreased due to the release in certain foreign jurisdictions as deferred tax assets were determined more likely than not to be realized. As of October 31, 2015, the company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $15,354 in foreign jurisdictions. The carryforward periods are as follows: $10,871 that do not expire; and $4,483 that expire between fiscal years 2017 and 2022. No provision has been made for U.S. federal income taxes on certain undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries the company intends to permanently invest or that may be remitted substantially tax-free. The total of undistributed earnings that would be subject to federal income tax if remitted under existing law is approximately $96,494 as of October 31, 2015. Determination of the unrecognized deferred tax liability related to these earnings is not practicable because of the complexities with its hypothetical calculation. Upon distribution of these earnings, the company will be subject to U.S. taxes and withholding taxes payable to various foreign governments. A credit for foreign taxes already paid would be available to reduce the U.S. tax liability. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Balance as of October 31, 2014 |  | $ | 5,042 |
Increase as a result of tax positions taken during a prior period |  |  | 801 |
Decrease as a result of tax positions taken during a prior period |  |  | (138 | )
Increase as a result of tax positions taken during the current period |  |  | 807 |
Decrease relating to settlements with taxing authorities |  |  | (169 | )
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Balance as of October 31, 2015 |  | $ | 6,343 |
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
The company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of the provision for income taxes. In addition to the liability of $6,343 for unrecognized tax benefits as of October 31, 2015 was an amount of approximately $1,356 for accrued interest and penalties. Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits as of October 31, 2015 are potential benefits of $5,636 that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate from continuing operations. The company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and numerous state and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, and non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for taxable years before fiscal 2010. The Internal Revenue Service is nearing completion of an audit for fiscal years 2010 through 2012, with no material adjustments to income tax expense or unrecognized tax benefits expected. The company is also under audit in several state jurisdictions, and expects various statutes of limitation to expire during the next 12 months. Due to the uncertain response of taxing authorities, a range of outcomes cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
