NOTE 3 — EARNINGS PER SHARE
 
Basic earnings per common share is based only on the average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the effect of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of options, unless the effect on earnings is antidilutive.
 
Diluted earnings per common share is computed using the treasury stock method. Under this method, the aggregate number of shares of common stock outstanding reflects the assumed use of proceeds from the hypothetical exercise of any outstanding options to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock (“Common Stock”). The average market value for the period is used as the assumed purchase price.
 
The following table sets forth the elements of basic and diluted earnings per common share:
