Income taxes
We record our interim provision for income taxes based on our estimated annual effective tax rate, as well as certain items discrete to the current period. The effective tax rate for the three months ended January 31, 2021 and 2020 was 20.7% and 17.6%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the current quarter was higher than the comparable prior year period primarily due to share-based payment transactions which resulted in discrete tax benefits of $799 and $2,537 for the three months ended January 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
