Federal Income Taxes [Abstract] |
Federal Income Taxes | 6. Federal Income Taxes The effective tax rate is the ratio of tax expense (benefit) over pre-tax income (loss). The effective tax rate was 42% and 67% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, compared to 14% and 11%, respectively, for the corresponding periods in 2019. The effective tax rate on pre-tax income is typically lower than the prevailing corporate federal income tax rate of 21% due to benefits from preferential tax items including the separate accounts dividends-received deduction (“DRD”) and tax credits. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the effective tax rate differed from the prevailing corporate federal income tax rate of 21% primarily due to a tax benefit at 21% from pre-tax losses in addition to the effects of the DRD and tax credits. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the effective tax rate differed from the prevailing corporate federal income tax rate of 21% primarily due to the effects of the DRD and tax credits.
