Earnings Per Share [Abstract] 
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are calculated to reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts were exercised or converted into common stock.
Basic and diluted earnings per common share are calculated as follows:

Weighted average shares outstanding — diluted excludes approximately 9 million and 7 million equivalent shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, and excludes approximately 12 million equivalent shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 related to options with exercise prices greater than the average market price of our common shares (i.e., “underwater” options).
Weighted average shares outstanding — diluted excludes approximately 4 million equivalent shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 related to options with exercise prices less than the average market price of our common shares (i.e., “in-the-money” options), as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive due to the Goodyear net loss.
