Recorded income tax expense differs from the expected tax expense (computed by applying the applicable statutory U.S. federal tax rate of 35% to income before income taxes). During 2015, 2014 and 2013, the Company was in a graduated tax rate position. The principal reasons for the difference are as follows:



	2015			2014			2013
Expected income taxes	$	9,006		$	8,650		$	8,249
Effects of:
Tax-exempt income	(1,103		)	(954		)	(877		)
Nondeductible interest expense	11			10			9
State taxes, net of federal taxes	1,264			1,505			1,429
Other items	41			43			36
Effect of marginal tax rate	(1		)	—			—
Total	$	9,218		$	9,254		$	8,846

Tax expense recorded by the Company during 2015, 2014 and 2013 did not include any interest or penalties. Tax returns filed with the Internal Revenue Service and Illinois Department of Revenue are subject to review by law under a three-year statute of limitations. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal or state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2012.
