Income before provision for income taxes	$	2,235		$	3,957		$	9,838		$	10,847

Effective tax rate	15.6		%	18.8		%	17.1		%	20.2		%

As of April 27, 2024, we had $2.2 billion of unrecognized tax benefits, of which $1.5 billion, if recognized, would favorably impact the effective tax rate. We regularly engage in discussions and negotiations with tax authorities regarding tax matters in various jurisdictions. We believe it is reasonably possible that certain federal, foreign, and state tax matters may be concluded in the next 12 months. Specific positions that may be resolved include issues involving transfer pricing and various other matters.
