Income Taxes [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Note 6 – Income Taxes The Company’s effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2015 was 34 percent compared with 33 percent for the same period last year. The difference between the effective tax rate and the amount computed using the U.S. federal statutory tax rate for the first quarter of 2015 was primarily attributable to reductions for the U.S. production activities deduction of $1.0 million and the effect of foreign tax rates lower than statutory tax rates of $0.5 million. These items were partially offset by the provision for state income taxes, net of the federal benefit, of $0.8 million. For the first quarter of 2014, the difference between the effective tax rate and what would be computed using the U.S. federal statutory tax rate was attributable to reductions related to the U.S. production activities deduction of $1.2 million and decreases in valuation allowances of $0.9 million. These items were partially offset by the provision for state income taxes, net of the federal benefit, of $1.3 million. The Company files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return and numerous consolidated and separate-company income tax returns in many state, local, and foreign jurisdictions. The statute of limitations is open for the Company’s federal tax return and most state income tax returns for 2011 and all subsequent years and is open for certain state and foreign returns for earlier tax years due to ongoing audits and differing statute periods. The Internal Revenue Service has audited the 2012 federal income tax return, the results of which were immaterial to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. While the Company believes that it is adequately reserved for possible future audit adjustments, the final resolution of these examinations cannot be determined with certainty and could result in final settlements that differ from current estimates.

Note 6 – Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2015 was 34 percent compared with 33 percent for the same period last year. The difference between the effective tax rate and the amount computed using the U.S. federal statutory tax rate for the first quarter of 2015 was primarily attributable to reductions for the U.S. production activities deduction of $1.0 million and the effect of foreign tax rates lower than statutory tax rates of $0.5 million. These items were partially offset by the provision for state income taxes, net of the federal benefit, of $0.8 million.

For the first quarter of 2014, the difference between the effective tax rate and what would be computed using the U.S. federal statutory tax rate was attributable to reductions related to the U.S. production activities deduction of $1.2 million and decreases in valuation allowances of $0.9 million. These items were partially offset by the provision for state income taxes, net of the federal benefit, of $1.3 million.

The Company files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return and numerous consolidated and separate-company income tax returns in many state, local, and foreign jurisdictions. The statute of limitations is open for the Company’s federal tax return and most state income tax returns for 2011 and all subsequent years and is open for certain state and foreign returns for earlier tax years due to ongoing audits and differing statute periods. The Internal Revenue Service has audited the 2012 federal income tax return, the results of which were immaterial to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.
