NOTE 10. BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME PER SHARE

        Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without consideration of potential common shares. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period and dilutive potential common shares for the period determined using the treasury-stock method. For purposes of this calculation, options to purchase stock are considered to be potential common shares and are only included in the calculation of diluted net income per share when their effect is dilutive.

        The following table is a reconciliation of the denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands):
