The components of the provision for income taxes are as follows:

The provision for income taxes differs from the amount that would be provided by applying the statutory U.S. corporate tax rate due to the following
items:
  
Provision at statutory rate  35.0% 35.0%
State income taxes, net of federal tax benefit  3.1 3.2

Provision for income taxes  37.9% 37.8%
We have analyzed filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years
in these jurisdictions. The only federal returns subject to examination are for the 2003 through 2009 tax years. State returns subject to examination are generally
for the 2003 through 2009 tax years. Certain states have proposed adjustments which we are currently appealing. If we do not prevail on our appeals, we do not
anticipate that the adjustments would result in a material change in our financial position.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:
 

Not included in the unrecognized tax benefits reconciliation above are gross unrecognized accrued interest and penalties of $25 million at January 30,
2010 and $23 million at January 31, 2009. Interest and penalty expense was $4 million for 2009 and $6 million for 2008.
