The effective tax rate was
33.4%
and
35.5%
for the
thirteen
and
thirty-nine
weeks ended
September 30, 2017,
respectively, compared to
34.2%
and
42.0%
for the
thirteen
and
thirty-nine
weeks ended
October 1, 2016,
respectively. The
2017
effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate of
34%
primarily due to the implementation of the new accounting standard related to the accounting for the tax impact of equity awards vesting and other discrete items. The fluctuation in the
2016
effective tax rate was due primarily to the effect of permanent differences.
