5. Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, was 35.1% and 36.4%, respectively. Total income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, differed from amounts computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rates to pre-tax income due primarily to state taxes and the impact of permanent differences between book and taxable income.
