The effective tax rate was favorably impacted by an increase in the income tax benefit recognized related to excess tax benefits from stock option exercises totaling $27,604,000 and $86,809,000 for three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, compared to $12,585,000 and $58,607,000, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.

The average sales price of new orders in the third quarter of 2019 was $369,200, a decrease of 1% when compared with the third quarter of 2018.

Homebuilding revenues of $1,873,331,000 in the third quarter of 2019 increased 4% compared to the third quarter of 2018. Gross profit margin in the third quarter of 2019 increased to 19.0%, compared to 18.6% in the third quarter of 2018.

Mortgage closed loan production in the third quarter of 2019 totaled $1,373,946,000, an increase of 10% when compared to the third quarter of 2018. Income before tax from the mortgage banking segment totaled $21,400,000 in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of 16% when compared to $25,514,000 in the third quarter of 2018. The decrease in income before tax is primarily due to a 12% decrease in mortgage banking fees, resulting from the timing of loan sales and a decrease in the fair value measurement adjustment.
