Income Taxes
 
Income taxes were accrued at an estimated effective tax rate of 34% and 31% in the first half of 2014 and 2013, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from that computed at the federal statutory rate of 35% principally because of the effect of foreign and state income taxes, tax credits, deductions for domestic production activities and discrete tax items.
