Valuation allowances have been provided for deferred tax assets relating to foreign net operating loss carry-forwards as future profitable operations from certain foreign subsidiaries might not be sufficient to realize the full amount of the deferred tax assets. No other valuation allowances have been provided as management believes that it is more likely than not that the asset will be realized in the reduction of future taxable income. The Company estimated the effect of global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) and has determined that it has no tax liability related to GILTI as of December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. The Company also estimated the effect of foreign derived intangible income (“FDII”) and recorded a tax benefit of approximately $2.4 million, $1.5 million and $0.9 million as of December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. A tax audit of our Company’s French subsidiary was finalized in 2023 for the tax years 2020 and 2021. As a result of the audit’s conclusions, a one-time assessment of € 2.8 million ($3.1 million) is included in tax expense in the consolidated statements of income. The Company’s French subsidiary is no longer subject to foreign tax examination for years before 2022. At this point in time, the Company does not believe they will face any further assessments for tax years still open to audit. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2020. Differences between the United States federal statutory income tax rate and the effective income tax rate were as follows:
