Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
INCOME TAXES | (K) INCOME TAXES On December 22, 2017, the United States (“U.S.”) enacted significant changes to U.S. tax law following the passage and signing of H.R.1, “An Act to Provide for Reconciliation Pursuant to Titles II and V of the Concurrent Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2018”). Under the new law, beginning January 1, 2018, the U.S. corporate income tax rate is reduced from 35% to 21%, accordingly, our effective tax rate for fiscal 2018 is based on a blended statutory rate of 31.5%. The effect on our net deferred tax liability for the change in tax rates is required to be recognized in the period the tax rate change was enacted. We estimated the impact of the reduction in the U.S. corporate income tax rate, as well as other aspects of the new law, which resulted in a one-time, non-cash decrease to income tax expense of approximately $61.0 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2017. The Company will continue to assess the expected impacts of the new tax law, and will include any changes to the preliminary impacts noted above, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2018. Income taxes for the interim period presented have been included in the accompanying financial statements on the basis of an estimated annual effective tax rate. In addition to the amount of tax resulting from applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to pre-tax income, we will, when appropriate, include certain items treated as discrete events to arrive at an estimated overall tax amount. The tax rate for the nine months ended December 31, 2017 was approximately 2%, which was lower than the tax rate of 33% for the nine months ended December 31, 2016. The decline in the rate was primarily due to the discrete benefit related to the change in corporate tax rates, as described above, which reduced deferred tax liabilities by approximately $61.0 million and the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-09, which reduced income tax expense by approximately $2.5 million.
