| Income Tax Provision                | Note 13 – Income Tax Provision                 The provision for income taxes consisted of the following:          Years ended March 31,(Dollars in millions)2014 2013 2012Current              Federal$ (24) $ (15) $ (33)      State  (3)   41   7      Foreign  8   6   9Total current  (19)   32   (17)Deferred              Federal  460   721   830      State  54   69   123      Foreign  2   2   1Total deferred  516   792   954Provision for income taxes$ 497 $ 824 $ 937
A reconciliation between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate is as follows:
          Years ended March 31, 2014 2013 2012Provision for income taxes at U.S. federal statutory tax rate 35.0%  35.0%  35.0%State and local taxes (net of federal tax benefit) 3.1%  3.2%  3.4%Other (1.4)%  -%  0.3%Effective tax rate 36.7%  38.2%  38.7%
For fiscal2014 and 2013,the amounts in Other in the table above include benefits from federal plug-in and electric vehicle credits offset by adjustments for the differences between the income tax accrued in the prior year as compared with the actual liability on the income tax returns as filed. For fiscal 2012, the amounts in Other includedbenefits from state hybrid vehicle creditsand adjustments for the differences between the income tax accrued in the prior year as compared with the actual liability on the income tax returns as filed.
Note 13 – Income Tax Provision (Continued)      The net deferred income tax liabilities, by tax jurisdiction, are as follows:       March 31, (Dollars in millions)2014 2013Federal$ 6,217 $ 5,763State  529   475Foreign  1   (2)Net deferred income tax liability$ 6,747 $ 6,236 Our net deferred income tax liability consists of the following deferred tax liabilities and assets:       March 31, (Dollars in millions)2014 2013Liabilities:          Lease transactions$ 7,133 $ 6,509     State taxes  482   446     Mark-to-market of investments in marketable securities          and derivatives   138   210     Other  295   295Deferred tax liabilities$ 8,048 $ 7,460      Assets:          Provision for credit and residual value losses  310   347     Deferred costs and fees  211   167     Net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards  742   679     Other  56   47Deferred taxassets  1,319   1,240     Valuation allowance  (18)   (16)Net deferred tax assets$ 1,301 $ 1,224      Net deferred income tax liability$ 6,747 $ 6,236
We have deferred tax assets related to our cumulative federal net operating loss carryforwards of $591million and $552million available at March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  The federal net operating loss carryforwards will expire beginning in fiscal 2029 through fiscal 2034.  At March 31, 2014, we have a deferred tax asset of $56million for state tax net operating loss carryforwards which will expire in fiscal 2015 through fiscal 2034.  At March 31,2013, we had deferred tax assets of $55million for state tax net operating loss carryforwards which will expire in fiscal 2014 through fiscal 2032.

Note 13 – Income Tax Provision (Continued)

 

In addition, at March 31, 2014 and 2013, we have deferred tax assets for federal and state hybrid credits of $80 million and $58million, respectively.  The deferred tax assets related to state tax net operating losses and state hybrid credits are reduced by a valuation allowance of $18 million at March 31, 2014.  The deferred tax assets related to state tax net operating losses and charitable contributionswere reduced by a valuation allowance of $16 million at March 31, 2013.  Apart from the valuation allowance, we believe that the remaining deferred tax assets will be realized in full.  We received a net tax refund of $30 million forfiscal 2014and paid net taxes of$21 million in fiscal2013.    

 

We have made an assertion of permanent reinvestment of earnings from our foreign subsidiary; as a result, U.S. taxes have not been provided for unremitted earnings of our foreign subsidiary.  At March 31, 2014 these unremitted earnings totaled $184 million.   Determination of the amount of the deferred tax liability is not practicable, and accordingly no estimate of the unrecorded deferred tax liability is provided.  Although there are no foreseeable events causing repatriation of earnings, possible examples may include but not be limited to parent company capital needs or exiting the business in the foreign country.

 

At March 31, 2014, we had a payable of $11 million for our share of the income tax in those states where we filed consolidated or combined returns with TMA and its subsidiaries. At March 31, 2013, the receivable for our share of the income tax in those states where we filed consolidated or combined returns with TMA and its subsidiaries was $7 million.At March 31, 2014, we had a receivable of less than $1 million for federal and state income tax from TMCC affiliated companies.  At March 31, 2013, we had a receivable of $1.1 million for federal and state income tax from TMCC affiliated companies.  Such TMCC affiliated companies include TFSA, TFSB, and Toyota Financial Services Securities USA Corporation.

 

The guidance for the accounting and reporting for income taxes requires us to assess tax positions in cases where the interpretation of the tax law may be uncertain.  

 

The change in unrecognized tax benefits in fiscal 2014, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:
 March 31,(Dollars in millions)2014 2013 2012Balance at beginning of the year$ 7 $ 8 $ 6    Increases related to positions taken during the prior years  -   -   2    Increases related to positions taken during the current year  -   1   -    Decreases related to positions taken during the prior years  (1)   -   -    Settlements  -   (2)   -Balance at end of year$ 6 $ 7 $ 8
At March 31, 2014 and 2013, approximately $1 million of the respective unrecognized tax benefits would, if recognized, have an effect on the effective tax rate.  At March 31, 2012, approximately $2 million of the respective unrecognized tax benefits at each year end would, if recognized, have an effect on the effective tax rate.  The deductibility of the remaining amount of the respective unrecognized tax benefits is highly certain, but there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.  The decrease in unrecognized tax benefits during fiscal 2014 did not have an effect on the effective tax rate.We do not have any positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within 12 months.

Note 13 – Income Tax Provision (Continued)

 

We accrue interest, if applicable, related to uncertain income tax positions in interest expense.  Statutory penalties, if applicable, accrued with respect to uncertain income tax positions are recognized as an addition to the income tax liability.  For each of fiscal 2014, 2013, and 2012, less than $1 million was accrued for interest and no penalties were accrued.    

 

As of March 31, 2014, we remain under IRS examination for fiscal 2014, 2013, and 2012.The IRS examination for fiscal 2010 was concluded in the first quarter of fiscal 2012.The IRS examination for fiscal 2011 was concluded in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. |
