Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]	Income Taxes On December 22, 2017, the Tax Act was enacted into legislation, which includes a broad range of provisions affecting businesses. The Tax Act significantly revises how companies compute their U.S. corporate tax liability by, among other provisions, reducing the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. Our accounting for the Tax Act is incomplete. As noted at year-end, however, we were able to reasonably estimate certain effects and, therefore, recorded provisional adjustments associated with the toll charge on undistributed foreign earnings and profits and revaluation of deferred taxes. Measurement-period adjustments for the toll charge and revaluation of deferred taxes recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2018 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. The effect of the measurement-period adjustments on the 2018 effective tax rate was approximately a two percentage point increase. We are continuing to gather additional information to complete our accounting for these items and expect to complete our accounting within the prescribed measurement period. Income taxes were accrued at an estimated effective tax rate of 85% and 97% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Income taxes were accrued at an estimated effective tax rate of (4)% and (66)% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Those rates differ from that computed at the federal statutory rate of 21% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the federal statutory rate of 35% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 differs from the federal statutory rate of 21% because of the effect in the mix of U.S. and foreign incomes, state income taxes and tax credits. It is also affected by discrete items that may occur in any given year but are not consistent from year to year. The nine months ended September 30, 2018 was impacted by a contract settlement. The contract settlement resulted in a tax benefit of $5.7 million, which is treated as a discrete item. The effective tax rate during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 also included a tax benefit of $1.6 million and $12.8 million, respectively related to the excess tax benefits recognized on stock option exercises and the vesting of restricted stock units during the period, which is treated as a discrete item and excluded from determining our annual estimated effective tax rate. In addition, a revaluation of the contingent consideration resulted in a discrete tax benefit of $4.4 million and $4.9 million, respectively for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, which was treated as a discrete item. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 differs from the federal statutory rate of 35% because of the effect the mix of U.S. and foreign incomes, state income taxes, tax credits and impact of the gain on bargain purchase. The tax effect of the gain on bargain purchase is treated as a discrete item part of purchase accounting and is not a component of the income tax provision. The effective tax rate during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 also included a material tax benefit of $2.7 million and $12.6 million, respectively related to the excess tax benefits recognized on stock option exercises and the vesting of restricted stock units during the period, which is treated as a discrete item and excluded from determining our annual estimated effective tax rate.
