Income Taxes | Note 10: Income Taxes Income tax expense was $6.2 million and $12.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The most significant factor in the difference between the effective tax rate of 17.4% and 19.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, and the amount determined by applying the applicable statutory United States tax rate of 35% is the tax rate differential associated with our foreign earnings. Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013 included a $5.2 million tax benefit due to the impact of tax law changes in the U.S. In addition, for the six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded $3.7 million of income tax expense for an uncertain tax position liability related to a foreign tax audit. Income tax expense for the six months ended July 1, 2012 included a tax benefit of $10.4 million due to reductions in our deferred tax asset valuation allowance associated with net operating losses in certain foreign tax jurisdictions. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, we made planned payments of two significant tax items. First, we paid $41.8 million of our estimated 2012 tax liability related to the sale of the Thermax and Raydex cable business in 2012. We recognized a $211.6 million pre-tax gain on the sale of this business in 2012. Second, we paid $30.0 million to settle a tax sharing agreement dispute with Cooper Industries. We reached the settlement and recognized a $21.0 million tax benefit in 2012.
