Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 37.7% and 29.4% for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 and 2013, respectively. The difference from the Federal statutory rate for fiscal 2014 was due primarily to state income taxes, partially offset by tax credits. The difference from the Federal statutory rate for fiscal 2013 was primarily the result of changes to the state of Michigan tax laws. Income tax expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 includes a $0.7 million after-tax benefit due to these changes. Excluding this item the effective tax rate was 37.6%.
