Basic earnings per share is calculated using income available to common
shareholders divided by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during
the period. Diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share
except that the weighted average of common shares outstanding is increased to
include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding
if the dilutive potential common shares, such as options, had been issued.
