        The weighted-average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share was as follows:

2014

 

2013

        There were one million and three million share options that were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2015 and 2013, respectively, because the instruments' underlying exercise prices were greater than the average market prices of our common shares and inclusion would be antidilutive.
