The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities consist of the following:
(In millions) | As of December 31,
| 2016 |  | 2015
Deferred tax assets: |  |  |
Allowance for credit losses | $ | 118.2 |  |  | $ | 89.8 |

The deferred state net operating loss tax asset arising from the operating loss carry forward for state income tax purposes is expected to expire at various times beginning in 2023, if not utilized. We do not anticipate expiration of the net operating loss carry forwards prior to their utilization. A reconciliation of the U.S. federal statutory rate to our effective tax rate is as follows:
| For the Years Ended December 31,
| 2016 |  | 2015 |  | 2014
U.S. federal statutory rate | 35.0 | % |  | 35.0 | % |  | 35.0 | %
State income taxes | 2.0 | % |  | 1.6 | % |  | 1.7 | %
Other | 0.3 | % |  | 0.2 | % |  | 0.1 | %
Effective tax rate | 37.3 | % |  | 36.8 | % |  | 36.8 | %
The differences between the U.S. federal statutory rate and our effective tax rates for 2016, 2015 and 2014 are primarily due to state income taxes. The increases in the effective tax rates over the three year period were primarily due to higher effective tax rates in certain state tax jurisdictions. The following table is a summary of changes in gross unrecognized tax benefits:
(In millions) | For the Years Ended December 31,
| 2016 |  | 2015 |  | 2014
Unrecognized tax benefits at January 1, | $ | 21.8 |  |  | $ | 16.6 |  |  | $ | 13.2 |
Additions based on tax positions related to current year | 8.2 |  |  | 7.4 |  |  | 5.5 |
Reductions for tax positions of prior years | — |  |  | — |  |  | (0.2 | )
Reductions as a result of a lapse of the statute of limitations | (2.3 | ) |  | (2.2 | ) |  | (1.9 | )
Unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, | $ | 27.7 |  |  | $ | 21.8 |  |  | $ | 16.6 |
The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefit that, if recognized, would favorably affect our effective income tax rate in future periods, was $27.7 million as of December 31, 2016. Accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions was $4.9 million and $3.8 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. We are subject to income tax in federal and state jurisdictions. The IRS has completed their federal tax examinations for years prior to 2013. With respect to state jurisdictions, we are generally no longer subject to tax examinations on returns filed for years prior to 2009.
