(A) For computation of the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings has been calculated by adding fixed charges, excluding capitalized interest, to earnings (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes and dividends received from equity affiliates, then deducting the impairment of equity method investment and undistributed earnings (loss) of affiliates. Fixed charges consist of interest expense, estimated interest portion of rent expense and capitalized interest.
