At December 31, 2015, the Company has not recorded deferred U.S. income taxes or foreign withholding taxes on $57,781 of undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries. It is management’s intent and practice to indefinitely reinvest such earnings outside of the U.S. Determination of the amount of any unrecognized deferred income tax liability associated with these undistributed earnings is not practicable because of the complexities of the hypothetical calculation. (Loss) income before income taxes, as shown in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, includes the following components:
|  | 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2013
Domestic | $ | (55,061) | $ | 30,766 | $ | 37,306
Foreign |  | 4,484 |  | 8,294 |  | 6,832
(Loss) income from operations, before income taxes | $ | (50,577) | $ | 39,060 | $ | 44,138
The reconciliation of income tax computed at statutory rates to income tax (benefit) expense is as follows:
| 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2013 |
Statutory rate | 35.0 | % | 35.0 | % | 35.0 | %
Foreign tax rate differential | 0.8 |  | (2.2) |  | (1.7) |
State income taxes, net of federal benefit | 0.3 |  | 2.7 |  | 2.6 |
Non-deductible goodwill impairment | (25.2) |  | - |  | - |
Non-deductible expenses | (0.9) |  | 1.8 |  | 0.6 |
Change in liability for unrecognized tax benefits | 0.4 |  | (0.8) |  | (1.9) |
Domestic production activities deduction | 1.0 |  | (2.2) |  | (1.2) |
Other | 0.7 |  | - |  | 0.2 |
| 12.1 | % | 34.3 | % | 33.6 | %
At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the tax benefit of net operating loss carryforwards available for state income tax purposes was $324 and $74, respectively. The state net operating loss carryforwards will expire in various years from 202 4 through 2035. At December 31, 2015, the Company has foreign net operating loss carryforwards of $1,320, which may be carried forward indefinitely. The Company has foreign tax credit carryforwards in the amount of $272 that will expire in 2024 through 2026. The Company anticipates utilizing these operating loss and credit carryforwards prior to their expiration and, therefore, has not provided a valuation allowance for these amounts. The following table provides a reconciliation of unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2015 and 2014:
|  | 2015 |  | 2014
Unrecognized tax benefits at beginning of period: | $ | 1,013 | $ | 1,509
Increases based on tax positions for prior periods |  | 147 |  | 18
Decreases based on tax positions for prior periods |  | - |  | (325)
Decreases related to settlements with taxing authorities |  | (578) |  | (126)
Decreases as a result of a lapse of the applicable statute of limitations |  | - |  | (63)
Balance at end of period | $ | 582 | $ | 1,013
The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate is $5 82 at December 31, 2015. The Company accrues interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in its provision for income taxes. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits of $443 and $335, respectively. At December 31, 2015, the Company does not expect any material increases or decreases to its unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months. Ultimate realization of this decrease is dependent upon the occurrence of certain events, including the completion of audits by tax authorities and expiration of statutes of limitations. The Company files income tax returns in the United States and in various state, local and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is subject to federal income tax examinations for the period 201 2 and forward. With respect to the state, local, and foreign filings, certain entities of the Company are subject to income tax examinations for the periods 2011 and forward.
