Income Taxes	9 Months Ended
Sep. 30, 2020
Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income TaxesWe determine the tax provision for interim periods using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter we update our estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if our estimated tax rate changes, we make a cumulative adjustment. Our effective tax rate was 21.7% and 18.9% for the first nine months of 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate in the first nine months of 2020 is primarily due to a decrease in net excess tax benefits recognized as a component of income tax expense in connection with the exercise of stock options and the vesting of restricted share and share unit awards. Also contributing to the increase, are taxes associated with the divestiture transactions that closed in the third quarter of 2020, as further discussed in Note (7).
