8. Income Taxes

At March 26, 2016, we had $1.9 million of net unrecognized tax benefits, $1.4 million of which would affect our effective tax rate if recognized. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. As of March 26, 2016, we had approximately $0.2 million of accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions.

We file income tax returns in the United States, China and Mexico. All years before 2012 are closed for federal tax purposes. The examination by the Internal Revenue Service for the 2011 and 2012 tax years resulted in de minimis adjustments. We are currently under examination by one state tax authority for years 2009-2012. Tax years before 2011 are closed for the remaining states in which we file. We filed tax returns in Sweden through 2012 and all years prior to 2009 are closed. It is reasonably possible that audit settlements, the conclusion of current examinations or the expiration of the statute of limitations could impact the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits.
