In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, Management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, Management believes it is more likely than not that the Bank will realize the benefits of these deferred tax assets other than those for which a valuation allowance has been recorded.

For the years ended December 31, 2020 2019, the income tax provisions are different from the tax expense which would be computed by applying the Federal statutory rate to pretax operating earnings. The Federal statutory rate was 21% for 2020 and 2019. A reconciliation between the tax provision at the statutory rate and the tax provision at the effective tax rate is as follows:

The Corporation recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties in income tax expense for all periods presented. No penalties or interest were recognized in 2020 or 2019. The Corporation recorded a reversal of $1.1 million to its income tax expense in the second quarter of 2020 due to a benefit from the passage of the CARES Act in March 2020. The CARES Act allowed for NOLs incurred in 2018, 2019 and 2020 to be carried back to offset taxable income earned during the five-year period prior to the year in which the NOL was incurred. The Corporation incurred an NOL in 2018 that was carried back to prior periods when the statutory rate for the Corporation was 34% as compared to the current rate of 21%. The Corporation had no uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2020. The Corporation is no longer subject to U.S. Federal examinations by tax authorities for the years before 2017.
