| Income Taxes [Abstract] | |
| Income Taxes | 12. Income Taxes The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return and income tax returns in various state and foreign jurisdictions. With certain exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2017 for federal returns and 2016 for state returns. The Company’s effective income tax rate was approximately 28% and 11% during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 28% and 3% during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Effective income tax rates for interim periods are based upon the Company’s then current estimated annual rate. The effective income tax rate varies based upon the estimate of taxable earnings as well as on the mix of taxable earnings in the various states in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate. As such, the Company’s effective tax rates for the 2021and 2020 periods reflect an estimate of its annual taxable earnings, state taxes, non-deductible items and changes in valuation allowance on deferred tax assets for each respective year. The 2020 periods include estimates made at the time related to the full year’s impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Certain of the Company’s state filings are under routine examination. While there is no assurance as to the results of these audits, the Company does not currently anticipate any material adjustments in connection with these examinations. As of June 30, 2021, the Company did not have any significant amounts accrued for interest and penalties or recorded for uncertain tax positions. |
