The Company’s effective tax rate (controlling interest) in 2018 is higher than the marginal tax rate primarily due to a $240.0 million expense recorded to reduce the carrying value of one of the Company’s Affiliates to fair value for which the Company did not recognize an income tax benefit. The effective tax rate (controlling interest) in 2019 is lower than the marginal tax rate primarily due to lower Income before income taxes, as a result of increased Intangible amortization and impairments expense, and tax benefits related to an Affiliate divestment. The effective tax rate (controlling interest) in 2020 is not significantly different from the marginal tax rate. Deferred income tax liability (net) reflects the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting bases and tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities. The significant components of the Company’s Deferred income tax liability (net) are as follows:
|  | December 31,
|  | 2019 |  | 2020
Deferred Tax Assets |  |  |  |
Deferred compensation |  | $ | 13.8 |  |  | $ | 15.4 |

Foreign loss carryforwards |  | 17.7 |  |  | 19.7 |
Tax benefit of uncertain tax positions |  | 27.4 |  |  | 26.3 |
Deferred income |  | 3.0 |  |  | — |
Lease liabilities |  | 12.3 |  |  | 10.0 |

__________________________ (1)As of December 31, 2019 and 2020, foreign loss carryforwards of $17.7 million and $19.7 million, respectively, net of a $2.3 million and a $13.3 million valuation allowance, respectively, are presented within Other assets as they represent a net deferred tax asset in a foreign jurisdiction. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had available state net operating loss carryforwards of $243.7 million, a majority of which will expire over ten years to 15 years. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had foreign loss carryforwards of $74.2 million, of which $64.6 million will expire over 11 years to 19 years and $9.6 million will carry forward indefinitely. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had foreign tax credit carryforwards of $8.2 million which will expire over eight years to ten years. The Company believed it was more-likely-than-not that the benefit from certain state and foreign loss carryforwards and foreign tax credit carryforwards would not be fully realized, and, as of December 31, 2020, had valuation allowances of $14.1 million, $13.3 million, and $8.2 million on the state and foreign loss carryforwards and the foreign tax credit carryforwards, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2020, there was a $7.2 million reduction and an $18.7 million increase in the valuation allowances, respectively. The Company’s estimates and assumptions regarding the realization of its state and foreign loss carryforwards do not contemplate certain changes in ownership of the Company’s stock which could limit the utilization of these carryforwards. The Company does not provide for U.S. income taxes on the excess of the financial reporting bases over tax bases in the Company’s investments in foreign subsidiaries considered permanent in duration. Such amount would generally become taxable upon the repatriation of assets from, or a sale or liquidation of, the foreign subsidiaries. While a determination of the potential amount of unrecognized deferred U.S. income tax liability related to these amounts is not practicable because of the numerous assumptions associated with this hypothetical calculation, as of December 31, 2020, the estimated amount of such difference was $317.1 million. A reconciliation of the changes in unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
|  | For the Years Ended December 31,
|  | 2018 |  | 2019 |  | 2020
Balance, beginning of period |  | $ | 32.4 |  |  | $ | 33.1 |  |  | $ | 65.4 |
Additions based on current year tax positions |  | 2.4 |  |  | 39.8 |  |  | 1.1 |
Additions based on prior years’ tax positions |  | 8.4 |  |  | 3.2 |  |  | 1.7 |
Reduction for prior years’ tax positions |  | (2.0) |  |  | (3.5) |  |  | (0.4) |
Lapse of the statute of limitations |  | (6.3) |  |  | (4.0) |  |  | (7.6) |
Settlements |  | (1.3) |  |  | (0.4) |  |  | — |
Foreign currency translation |  | (0.5) |  |  | (2.8) |  |  | 3.3 |
Balance, end of period |  | $ | 33.1 |  |  | $ | 65.4 |  |  | $ | 63.5 |
Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2018, 2019, and 2020 were $33.1 million, $65.4 million, and $63.5 million, respectively, of tax benefits that, if recognized, would favorably affect the Company’s effective tax rate (controlling interest). As of December 31, 2020, certain of these benefits, if realized, would be offset by the utilization of indirect tax benefits, for which the Company has accrued deferred tax assets of $26.3 million. The Company records accrued interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in Income tax expense. For the years ended December 31, 2018, 2019, and 2020, interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were $0.4 million, $8.4 million, and $0.8 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2019 and 2020, the Company had accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits of $10.5 million and $11.4 million, respectively. The Company is subject to U.S. federal, state and local, and foreign income tax in multiple jurisdictions and is periodically subject to tax examinations in these jurisdictions. The completion of examinations may result in the payment of additional taxes and/or the recognition of tax benefits. The Company is generally no longer subject to income tax examinations by U.S. federal, state and local, or foreign taxing authorities for periods prior to 2016.
