NOTE 13. INCOME TAXES

As a real estate investment trust (REIT), we generally are not subject to federal and state corporate income taxes on income of the REIT that we distribute to our shareholders. We conduct certain activities through our taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRS), which are subject to corporate level federal and state income taxes. These taxable activities are principally comprised of our wood products manufacturing operations and certain real estate investments. Therefore, income tax expense or benefit is primarily due to income or loss of the TRS, as well as permanent book versus tax differences. In addition, we had carryover tax basis in the MDF facility from the Deltic merger and as a result, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded a reduction to deferred tax liabilities and increase to income taxes payable of $15.8 million at the date of sale. See Note 4: Sale of Deltic MDF Facility for further details.  In addition, during the third quarter of 2018, we recorded a tax benefit of $5.3 million primarily related to deducting contributions to our qualified pension plans at the higher 2017 income tax rate.
