(1) | For purposes of determining the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings consist of income from continuing operations before income taxes, fixed charges and amortization of capitalized interest, less interest capitalized. Fixed charges consist of interest expense (including amortization of debt discounts and amortization of capitalized expenses related to indebtedness), interest capitalized, and an appropriate interest factor on operating leases. Interest related to unrecognized tax benefits is recognized in income tax expense. Fixed charges represent amounts relating to continuing operations. |
