The diluted net earnings per share calculation included the dilutive effect of convertible debt that is offset by the related reduction in interest expense of $1 million after-tax for year 2017, $2 million for year 2016 and $3 million for year 2015.
The diluted net earnings per share calculation for 2017, 2016 and 2015 included all shares related to stock options, as the exercise price of all options was less than the average market value of the Company's stock.
