| Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company’s income tax provision consists of federal, state and foreign income taxes. The tax provision for the first quarters of fiscal 2017 and 2016 were based on the estimated effective tax rates applicable for the full years ending March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, respectively, after giving effect to items specifically related to the interim periods. The Company’s effective income tax rate with respect to any period may be volatile based on the mix of income in the tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates and the amount of the Company's consolidated income before taxes. The consolidated effective income tax rates were 24.4% and 22.7%, respectively, for the first quarters of fiscal 2017 and 2016. The rate increase in the first quarter of fiscal 2017 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2016 is primarily due to the subsequent recognition of a previously unrecognized tax position in fiscal 2016 related to one of the Company's foreign subsidiaries, as well as changes in mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions. |
