Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Earnings Per Common Share
Earnings Per Common Share
Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per common share are computed similar to basic earnings per common share except that it reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.
The computations for basic and diluted earnings per common share are as follows:

Certain computations may reflect rounding adjustments.
Potentially dilutive securities include outstanding stock options, restricted stock units, and performance-based and other restricted stock units. Approximately 1 million potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computations of diluted net earnings per common share for each of the quarters ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and 1 million and 2 million potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computations of diluted net earnings per common share for the six months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, as they were anti-dilutive.
