Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes Income taxes have been provided for in the accompanying consolidated financial statements on the basis of an estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for the items considered discrete for the periods presented. The Company recorded income taxes based on an anticipated annual effective tax rate, including the impact of discrete tax benefits, of approximately 45% for 2013. This estimated annual effective tax rate, inclusive of discrete tax benefits, differs from the statutory rate primarily due to reductions in recorded valuation allowances, reductions in certain deferred tax liabilities, lapsing of various uncertain tax positions due to expiration of the statute of limitations in various jurisdictions and changes in state tax apportionment. Excluding the lapsing of various uncertain tax positions, these tax benefits are primarily associated with the merger with SuperMedia which resulted in the availability of deferred tax liabilities to support the future realization of deferred tax assets in certain tax jurisdictions and changes in state tax apportionment. Without the reductions in the recorded valuation allowance, lapsing of uncertain tax positions, reductions in certain deferred tax liabilities and changes in state tax apportionment, our anticipated annual effective tax rate, inclusive of discrete items, would approximate 35% for 2013. Our estimated annual effective tax rate for 2013 may be subject to change in future periods. The annual effective tax rate of 10% for the year ended December 31, 2012 differed from the statutory rate primarily due to changes in recorded valuation allowances, the impact of state income taxes, changes in certain deferred tax liabilities, and the impact of non-deductible interest expense related to our debt obligations.
