​ The Company has assessed its taxable earnings history and prospective future taxable income. Based upon this assessment, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that its deferred tax assets will be realized in future periods and no valuation allowance is necessary, except for the deferred tax assets related to the foreign tax credits. The foreign tax credits will expire after 10 years. As a result, valuation allowances of $530,000 and $350,000 as of December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively, have been recorded. ​ The amount of unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, as of December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, was $1,663,400 and $1,345,000, respectively, primarily for potential state taxes. All of these unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. ​ The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties as income tax expense for all periods presented. The Company had accrued approximately $369,100 and $261,900 for the payment of interest and penalties at December 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively. ​ The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits: ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ |  | Total |
Balance at December 31, 2022 | ​ | $ | 871,300 | ​
Increases related to current year tax positions | ​ |  | 277,600 | ​
Expiration of the statute of limitations for the assessment of taxes | ​ |  | (65,800) | ​
Balance at December 30, 2023 | ​ | ​ | 1,083,100 | ​
Increases related to current year tax positions | ​ |  | 283,100 | ​
Expiration of the statute of limitations for the assessment of taxes | ​ |  | (71,900) | ​
Balance at December 28, 2024 | ​ | $ | 1,294,300 | ​
​ The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal, numerous state and certain foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2020. The Company is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2022 tax year. We expect various statutes of limitation to expire during the next 12 months. Due to the uncertain response of taxing authorities, a range of outcomes cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
