Income Taxes	9. Income Taxes Our provision for income taxes is impacted by a number of factors, including federal taxes, our international tax structure, state tax rates in the jurisdictions where we conduct business, and our ability to utilize state tax credits that expire between 2015 and 2029. Therefore, our overall effective income tax rate could vary. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was 28.6% and 30.7%, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was 32.8% and 32.6%, respectively. Our effective tax rates for the three and nine month periods are different than the federal statutory rate generally due to the impact of state and local taxes and the partial reinvestment of foreign earnings in fiscal 2015 and 2014. We accrue interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. At June 30, 2015, we had accrued $679 and $174 for the potential payment of interest and penalties, respectively. As of June 30, 2015, we were subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for the tax years 2012 through 2014, and to non-U.S. examinations for tax years 2009 through 2014. In addition, we are generally subject to state and local examinations for fiscal years 2011 through 2014. During our fiscal second quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") finalized its examination of the Company for tax years 2011 and 2012, which resulted in an immaterial reduction to its unrecognized tax benefit.
