Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we recorded $47.1 million and $50.0 million of income tax expense and had an effective tax rate of 34.2% and 35.7%, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the primary reasons for the difference from the federal statutory income tax rate of 35.0% were the effect of state and local income taxes and the domestic manufacturers’ deduction.

During the three months ended March 31, 2015, there were no significant changes to our uncertain tax positions. For more information, see Note 6, Income Taxes, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, cash paid for taxes, net of refunds received, was $9.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively.
