NOTE:

The ratio of earnings to fixed charges is calculated by dividing fixed charges
into the sum of income before income taxes and cumulative effect of change in
accounting principles and fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest
expense, including capitalized interest and a portion of rental expense
representative of the interest factor.
