NOTE G - Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate in the third quarter of 2015 of 31.0% decreased from 32.8% in the same period of 2014, and the effective income tax rate in the first nine months of 2015 of 31.6% decreased from 33.0% in the same period of 2014. The lower effective tax rates for the third quarter and first nine months were primarily due to an increase in research tax credits in 2015.
