Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company’s effective tax rate was 31.3% and 36.8% for the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and 38.2% and 34.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The difference in the Company’s effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 compared to the second quarter of 2013 was primarily due to the expectation of increased earnings in 2014 compared to 2013 derived from countries with lower tax rates compared to that of the United States. The Company's effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was negatively impacted by discrete income tax charges of approximately $1.0 million, recorded in the first quarter of 2014, primarily for non-deductible transaction related expenses associated with the acquisition of the Industrial Filtration business. The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2013 included a discrete tax benefit of $0.5 million recorded in the first quarter of 2013 as the Company concluded certain U.S. federal income tax matters through the year ended December 31, 2009. The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return, as well as returns required by various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities, including such major jurisdictions as the United States, France, Germany, China, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal examinations for years before 2010, state and local examinations for years before 2002, and non-U.S. income tax examinations for years before 2003. The Company’s effective tax rates in future periods could be affected by earnings being lower or higher than anticipated in countries where tax rates differ from the United States federal rate, the relative impact of permanent tax adjustments on higher or lower earnings from domestic operations, changes in net deferred tax asset valuation allowances, the impact of the completion of acquisitions or divestitures, changes in tax rates or tax laws and the completion of tax audits.
