Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	10. Income taxes Our provision for income taxes is based on estimated effective tax rates derived from an estimate of annual consolidated earnings before taxes, adjusted for nondeductible expenses, other permanent items, and any applicable income tax credits. The difference in the 21% U.S. statutory tax rate and the annual forecasted effective tax rate is primarily a result of the jurisdictional mix of earnings and losses as well as valuation allowances offsetting the benefit of forecasted losses in the U.S., Australia, and the United Kingdom. Forecasted tax expense is related to non-U.S. jurisdictions where we are profitable along with state income taxes. The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were 0.13 % and (0.07) % respectively. The effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were (0.03) % and (0.07) % respectively. We file tax returns in the U.S., including various state and local returns, and in other foreign jurisdictions including the Australia and the United Kingdom. We believe adequate provision has been made for all income tax uncertainties. We are not currently under audit in any filing jurisdiction. Fiscal years 2016 through 2019 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which we are subject. Carry forward attributes that were generated in tax years prior to fiscal year 2016 remain open to adjustment until the statute of limitations closes for the tax year in which the attributes are utilized.

10. Income taxes

Our provision for income taxes is based on estimated effective tax rates derived from an estimate of annual consolidated earnings before taxes, adjusted for nondeductible expenses, other permanent items, and any applicable income tax credits. The difference in the 21% U.S. statutory tax rate and the annual forecasted effective tax rate is primarily a result of the jurisdictional mix of earnings and losses as well as valuation allowances offsetting the benefit of forecasted losses in the U.S., Australia, and the United Kingdom. Forecasted tax expense is related to non-U.S. jurisdictions where we are profitable along with state income taxes.

The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were 0.13 % and (0.07) % respectively. The effective tax rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were (0.03) % and (0.07) % respectively.

We file tax returns in the U.S., including various state and local returns, and in other foreign jurisdictions including the Australia and the United Kingdom. We believe adequate provision has been made for all income tax uncertainties. We are not currently under audit in any filing jurisdiction. Fiscal years 2016 through 2019 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which we are subject. Carry forward attributes that were generated in tax years prior to fiscal year 2016 remain open to adjustment until the statute of limitations closes for the tax year in which the attributes are utilized.
