The provision for federal and foreign income taxes consisted of the following:
(In millions) 2004 2003 2002
Current income tax expense
Federal $138 $130 $ 51
Foreign 735
Deferred income tax (benefit) expense
Federal (5) 94 243
Foreign –21
Total $140 $227 $320
The provision (benefit) for state income taxes of $6 million, $(1) million, and $15 million in 2004, 2003, and
2002, respectively, was included in administrative and selling expenses as these costs can generally be recovered
through the pricing of products and services to the U.S. government in the period for which the tax is payable.
Accordingly, the deferred state income tax provision (benefit), which is not material, will be allocated to contracts
in future periods as they are realized.
The provision for income taxes differs from the U.S. statutory rate due to the following:
2004 2003 2002
Statutory tax rate 35.0% 35.0% 35.0%
Foreign tax credit benefit (5.5) ––
Extraterritorial income exclusion/foreign sales corporation tax benefit (3.4) (3.1) (3.5)
ESOP dividend deduction benefit (2.3) (1.7) (1.1)
Research and development tax credit (0.9) (0.8) (1.0)
Other, net 1.3 0.4 0.3
Effective tax rate 24.2% 29.8% 29.7%
