The effective tax rate on earnings was 28.5% for the 2024 Quarter and 36.4% for the 2024 Period compared to 48.1% for the 2023 Quarter and 300.0% for the 2023 Period. During the 2024 Quarter, we received a refund of $77 million, including interest, from the IRS attributable to the 2013 tax year that was originally recognized as a receivable in 2020 pursuant to the CARES Act. Tax refunds of $82 million remain unpaid but are anticipated to be received later in 2024. The underlying assets were included in other current assets as of December 31, 2023. A reconciliation of U.S. statutory federal income tax expense to income tax expense follows:
