Earnings per Common Share [Abstract]

Earnings per Common Share

(8)  Earnings per Common Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in the same manner as basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if certain shares issuable upon exercise of options and non-vested restricted stock were included.

The following table reconciles the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per common share computations:
