1. 260-10Overall260 Earnings Per Share

   ASC 260-10 governs the computation, presentation, and disclosure of basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) by entities with publicly traded common stock or potential common stock (or entities in registration). Basic EPS divides income available to common stockholders (income less preferred dividends) by the weighted-average common shares outstanding (260-10-45-10 through 45-11); diluted EPS adds all dilutive potential common shares using the treasury stock method for options/warrants, the reverse treasury stock method for written puts and forward purchases, and the if-converted method for convertible securities, never assuming antidilutive conversions (260-10-45-16 through 45-45). The subtopic also covers the two-class method for participating securities, contingently issuable shares, down round features, and master limited partnership earnings per unit.
