Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
INCOME TAXES | NOTE L – INCOME TAXES The Company’s effective tax rate was 34% and 28% for the three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The lower effective tax rate for the three month period ended March 31, 2013 compared to the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 35% is primarily due to increased earnings in jurisdictions with lower tax rates than the U.S. federal statutory rate where such earnings are permanently reinvested. The higher effective tax rate for the three month period ending March 31, 2014 compared with the same period for 2013 was primarily related to the recording of 2012 tax benefits attributable to the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (the “Act”), signed into law on January 2, 2013. The Act retroactively restored business tax provisions, primarily the research and experimentation credit and the Subpart F controlled foreign corporation look-through exception. There was no benefit recorded in 2014 as the Act was not extended into 2014. The Company provides valuation allowances against deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. No significant changes to the valuation allowance were reflected for the period ended March 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $.6 million with no significant changes during the period ended March 31, 2014. The Company does not anticipate any material changes to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next nine months.
