Foreign	33.6	26.5	50.1
State and local	39.3	32.0	47.5
Deferred income tax benefits	(33.4)	(35.7)	(23.2)
	$305.4	$255.3	$397.8

Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between taxable income for financial statement and income tax return purposes. Deferred tax benefits include $23.9 million in 2008, $22.4 million in 2009, and $27.6 million in 2010 relating to the recognition of stock-based compensation expense. Deferred tax benefits of $31.9 million in 2008 and $12.4 million in 2009 are attributable to other than temporary impairments recognized on our sponsored mutual fund investments. Deferred taxes relating to property and equipment of $17.4 million in 2008 partially offset deferred tax benefits.

The net deferred tax asset recognized in our balance sheet in other assets includes the following (in millions) at December 31.

	2009	2010
Deferred tax liabilities
Related to property and equipment	$(18.0)	$(17.6)
Recognized in other comprehensive income on net unrealized holding gains	(61.4)	(85.5)
Other	(3.9)	(9.2)
	(83.3)	(112.3)
Deferred tax assets
Related to stock-based compensation	90.6	117.2
Related to other than temporary impairments of investments in mutual funds	48.3	49.2
Related to accrued compensation	2.3	2.2
Other	6.4	4.4
	147.6	173.0
Net deferred tax asset	$ 64.3	$ 60.7

Other assets also include tax refund receivables of $18.1 million at December 31, 2009, and $31.9 million at December 31, 2010.

Cash outflows from operating activities include income taxes paid of $289.9 million in 2008, $221.6 million in 2009, and $383.0 million in 2010.

Additional income tax benefits of $69.7 million in 2008, $33.1 million in 2009, and $51.9 million in 2010 arising from stock-based compensation plans activity reduced the amount of income taxes that would have otherwise been payable.

The following table reconciles the statutory federal income tax rate to the effective income tax rate.

	2008	2009	2010
Statutory U.S. federal income tax rate	35.0%	35.0%	35.0%
State income taxes for current year, net of federal income tax benefits	3.3	3.1	3.0
Other items	.1	(1.0)	(.8)
Effective income tax rate	38.4%	37.1%	37.2%

The following table reconciles our unrecognized tax benefits (in millions) during the year:

	2008	2009	2010
Balance at beginning of year	$ 4.8	$ 6.3	$ 7.0
Changes in tax positions related to
Current year	1.3	1.1	.8
Prior years	.2	(.4)	(4.0)
Balance at year end	$ 6.3	$ 7.0	$ 3.8

If recognized, these tax benefits would affect our effective tax rate; however, we do not expect that unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions taken with respect to 2010 and prior years will significantly change in 2011. Our United States federal tax obligations have been settled through the year 2000. Net interest recoverable recognized in our balance sheets was $4.5 million at December 31, 2009, and $5.6 million at December 31, 2010. Our accounting policy with respect to interest and penalties arising from income tax settlements is to recognize them as part of our provision for income taxes. Interest recognized as part of our provision for income taxes was not material.

Cash Equivalents [Text Block]

CASH EQUIVALENTS.

Cash equivalents consist primarily of short-term, highly liquid investments in our sponsored money market mutual funds. The cost of these funds is equivalent to fair value.

Investments [Text Block]

INVESTMENTS.

We value our investments in sponsored mutual funds at the quoted closing net asset values, or NAVs, per share of each mutual fund last reported as of the balance sheet date, and generally classify these holdings as available-for-sale.

Our investments in marketable debt securities, including mortgage- and other asset-backed securities held by our savings bank subsidiary, are also classified as available-for-sale and reported at fair value. These debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter market. Securities with original maturities of one year or more are valued by us based on prices furnished by dealers who make markets in such securities or by an independent pricing service, which considers the yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, and type, as well as prices quoted by dealers who make markets in such securities. Securities with original maturities of less than one year generally are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value; however, if amortized cost is deemed not to re flect fair value, such securities are valued by us based generally on prices furnished by dealers who make markets in such securities or by an independent pricing service. Our investment valuation policies, methods and sources are the same as those employed by the sponsored mutual funds to price similar investment holdings.

Changes in net unrealized security holding gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

We review the carrying amount of each investment on a quarterly basis and recognize an impairment charge in non-operating investment income (loss) whenever an unrealized loss is considered other than temporary. A mutual fund holding with an impairment that has persisted daily throughout the six months between quarter-ends is generally presumed to have an other than temporary impairment unless there is persuasive evidence, such as an increase in value subsequent to quarter end, to overcome that presumption. We may also recognize an other than temporary charge if particular circumstances do not warrant our belief that a near-term recovery is possible.

We classify some investments in sponsored mutual funds made at fund formation as trading because they are expected to be held for only a short period of time.

Other investments that give us the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee are recognized using the equity method of accounting. The carrying value of these investments are adjusted to reflect our proportionate share of income or loss, any unrealized gain or loss resulting from the translation of foreign denominated financial statements into U.S. dollars and dividends received. Our proportionate share of income or loss is included in non-operating investment income in the consolidated statements of income. We evaluate our equity method investments for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the investment exceeds its fair value, and the decline in fair value is other than temporary. t;/font/p p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; font-family: 'CG Times','serif';"font class="_mt" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New';" /fontnbsp;/p p class="MsoNormal" style="font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; font-family: 'CG Times','serif';"font class="_mt" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Courier New';"Those other investments to which we do not exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee are recognized using the cost method of accounting./font/p /div

Concentrations of Risk [Text Block]

CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK.

Concentration of credit risk in accounts receivable is believed to be minimal in that our clients generally have substantial assets, including those in the investment portfolios that we manage for them.

Our investments in sponsored mutual funds expose us to market risk in the form of equity price risk; that is, the potential future loss of value that would result from a decline in the fair values of the mutual funds. Each fund and its underlying net assets are also subject to market risk, which may arise from changes in equity prices, credit ratings, foreign currency exchange rates, and interest rates.

Investments by our savings bank subsidiary in debt securities expose us to market risk, which may arise from changes in credit ratings and interest rates.

Goodwill [Text Block]

GOODWILL.

We evaluate the carrying amount of goodwill in our balance sheet for possible impairment on an annual basis in the third quarter of each year using a fair value approach. Our evaluations have indicated that no impairment exists.

We internally conduct, manage and report our operations as one investment advisory business. We do not have distinct operating segments or components that separately constitute a business. Accordingly, we attribute goodwill to a single reportable business segment and reporting unit – our investment advisory business.

Stock Awards and Options [Text Block]

STOCK AWARDS AND OPTIONS.

Our stockholders have approved the 2001 and 2004 Stock Incentive Plans under which we have issued restricted shares and restricted stock units that convert to shares after vesting. These employee awards are fair valued on the grant date using the closing market price of our common stock and generally vest over graded schedules of four to five years. All restricted shareholders and restricted stock unit holders receive non-forfeitable cash dividends and cash dividend-equivalents, respectively, on our dividend payable date.

Under the seven stockholder approved plans (the 1993, 1996, 2001 and 2004 Stock Incentive Plans and the 1995, 1998 and 2007 plans for non-employee directors), we have granted qualified incentive and nonqualified fixed stock options with a maximum term of 10 years to employees and non-employee directors. Vesting of our employee option grants is based solely on the individual continuing to render service and generally occurs over a five- to six-year graded schedule. The exercise price of each option granted is equivalent to the market price of the common stock at the date of grant. We semiannually grant options, restricted shares and restricted stock units to non-employee directors that vest over six months to one year. Vested stock units are issued as dividend equivalents on stock units hel d by non-employee directors.

In recognizing stock option-based compensation expense, we used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of each option grant, including reloads, as follows:

	Weighted-average
	2008	2009	2010
Grant-date fair value per option awarded, including reload grants	$13.51	$10.07	$14.26

Assumptions used:
Expected life in years	5.9	6.7	6.7
Expected volatility	24%	32%	32%
Dividend yield	1.7%	2.4%	2.1%
Risk-free interest rate	3.1%	2.5%	2.7%

Our expected life assumptions are based on the vesting period for each option grant and our historical experience with respect to the average holding period from vesting to option exercise. The assumptions for expected volatility are based on historical experience for the same periods as our expected lives. Dividend yields are based on recent historical experience and future expectations. Risk-free interest rates are set using grant-date U.S. Treasury yield curves for the same periods as our expected lives.

Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

EARNINGS PER SHARE.

On January 1, 2009, we modified our earnings per share calculations to reflect new financial reporting guidance that recognizes our outstanding restricted stock and stock units, on which we pay non-forfeitable dividends, as if they were a separate class of stock.

Comprehensive Income [Text Block]

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME.

Total comprehensive income is reported in our consolidated statements of stockholders' equity and includes net income, the change in net unrealized security holding gains (losses), after income taxes (tax benefits), and the change in the currency translation adjustment, after income taxes.

Other Disclosures [Abstract]
Other Disclosures [Text Block]	NOTE 14 - OTHER DISCLOSURES. Our consolidated stockholders' equity at December 31, 2010, includes about $81 million that is restricted as to use by various regulations and agreements arising in the ordinary course of our business. From time to time, various claims against us arise in the ordinary course of business, including employment-related claims. In the opinion of management, after consultation with counsel, the likelihood that an adverse determination in one or more pending claims would have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations is remote. Compensation expense recognized for our defined contribution retirement plans was $43.6 million in 2008, $41.2 million in 2009, and $48.2 million in 2010.
