H.       INCOME TAXES

Effective tax rates differ from statutory federal income tax rates, primarily due to provisions for foreign, state and local income taxes and permanent tax differences. Our effective tax rate was 25.0% in the second quarter of 2021 compared to 25.3% for same period in 2020 and was 24.4% in the first six months of 2021 compared to 25.1% for the same period in 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in permanent tax differences in 2021 compared to the prior year, none of which are individually significant.
