Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | (13) Income Taxes Effective Income Tax Rate and Income Tax Provision Our effective income rate from continuing operations was 25.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 15.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Our effective income tax rate for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 benefited from a favorable earnings mix, with earnings in jurisdictions with low tax rates and losses in jurisdictions, including the U.S. for the six month period, with high tax rates. We also benefited from a favorable settlement of a tax dispute in the three months ended June 30, 2013. The favorable factors were partially offset by losses in jurisdictions where we did not have any tax benefit due to the applicable tax rate or valuation allowances. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2013 benefited from a retroactive reinstatement of certain tax provisions that were recorded as discrete items during the three months ended March 31, 2013. On January 2, 2013, the President signed the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, retroactively reinstating and extending the research and development tax credit and certain foreign tax provisions from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2013. This favorable factor for the six month period was partially offset by an increase in certain foreign tax rates, which increased our deferred tax liabilities. We incurred losses from continuing operations during the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2012. Our loss before income taxes from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was increased by an income tax provision of $3 million. Our loss before income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was reduced by an income tax benefit of $7 million (an effective income tax benefit rate of 20.3%). The tax provision (benefit) for the three and six month periods resulted from restructuring efforts, including both taxes incurred with respect to restructuring and restructuring expenses with a zero or low tax benefit. Our tax provision for both the three month and six month periods benefited from earnings in jurisdictions with low tax rates and losses in jurisdictions, such as the U.S., with high tax rates, as well as favorable settlements of certain tax disputes totaling $5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2012 and $10 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. Unrecognized Tax Benefits We made payments to foreign jurisdictions of approximately $4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2013 and $14 million (including $2 million of interest) during the six months ended June 30, 2013, which, in both instances, reduced our unrecognized tax benefits. We have not changed our policy with regard to the reporting of penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits.
