Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
EARNINGS PER SHARE
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the diluted weighted average common shares, which reflects the potential dilution related to common stock equivalents. The weighted average shares used to calculate basic and diluted EPS are as follows:

We use the treasury method for calculating the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. For the first quarter of fiscal year 2014, the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents was not included since we had a net loss. For the first quarter of fiscal year 2013, there were no anti-dilutive common stock equivalents.
