Income Taxes INCOME TAXES
The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in various state and city jurisdictions. The Company’s combined federal and state effective income tax rate was 21.1% and 20.6% for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily due to
excess tax deficiencies associated with equity compensation during the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to
excess tax benefits in the three months ended December 31, 2021.
The Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations in its major jurisdictions for tax years prior to 2019. The Company recognizes interest and penalties on income tax assessments or income tax refunds, where applicable, in the financial statements as a component of its provision for income taxes.
The Company makes certain investments in limited partnerships which invest in affordable housing projects that qualify for the Low Income Housing Tax Credit. The Company acts as a limited partner in these investments and does not exert control over the operating or financial policies of the partnership. The Company accounts for its interests in LIHTCs using the proportional amortization method. The impact of the Company's investments in tax credit entities on the provision for income taxes was not material during the three months ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
