Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that would occur if options granted under various share-based compensation plans were exercised resulting in the issuance of common shares that would participate in the earnings of the entity.
Net income (loss) per common share has been computed as shown below, based upon weighted average common basic and dilutive shares outstanding.
