(7) INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes is recorded at the end of each interim period based on the Company’s best estimate of its effective income tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year. The Company’s income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was partially offset by a state income tax refund, which resulted in a lower effective tax rate for the period. The Company’s effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was 36%. The Company paid income taxes of $365 during the first six months of 2012, which was included in income taxes payable at December 31, 2011. Included in income tax payable at June 30, 2012 (recorded December 2010) was $257 of penalties and interest from 2010. The Company received notice during the three months ended June 30, 2012 that such penalties and interest would not be abated. The Company paid the full amount of penalties and interest in July 2012.
