Note 16: Income Taxes

At the end of each quarter, we estimate the effective tax rate expected to be applied for the full year. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was approximately 31 percent and 20 percent, respectively. The effective tax rate is higher primarily due to the change in earnings mix of our worldwide income through the third quarter of 2021 as compared to the third quarter of 2020, as well as non-deductible Diamond Acquisition-related costs.

We have considered the income tax accounting and disclosure implications of the relief provided by the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 enacted on March 11, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, we evaluated the income tax provisions of the American Rescue Plan Act and have determined there to be no effect on either the September 30, 2021 tax rate or the computation of the estimated effective tax rate for the year. We will continue to evaluate the income tax provisions of the American Rescue Plan Act and monitor the developments in the jurisdictions where we have significant operations for tax law changes that could have income tax accounting and disclosure implications.
