Earnings Per Share

NOTE 15:  EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per basic share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Earnings per diluted share uses the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year plus dilutive common stock equivalents, primarily stock options.

The computation of earnings per share is as follows:

 

   Fiscal year    2011    2010    2009    

   Net earnings

   $683    $613    $441    

   Basic shares

   213.5    218.8    216.8    

   Dilutive effect of stock options and other

   4.2    3.8    2.9    

   Diluted shares

   217.7    222.6    219.7    

   Earnings per basic share

   $3.20    $2.80    $2.03    

   Earnings per diluted share

   $3.14    $2.75    $2.01    

Options and other equity instruments totaling 3.9 shares in 2011, 6.1 shares in 2010 and 7.2 shares in 2009 were excluded from earnings per diluted share because their impact was anti-dilutive.
