Income Taxes

Note 8 – Income Taxes

For the thirteen week period ended August 27, 2011 the effective income tax rate was 40.0% as compared to 39.8% for the comparable period a year ago. For the twenty-six week period ended August 27, 2011, the effective income tax rate was 39.7% as compared to 40.0% for the comparable period a year ago.  The difference between the effective income tax rate and the federal statutory rate for the current period is largely attributable to non deductibility of certain operating expenses.
