|(2) | The ratio of
  earnings to fixed charges has been computed by adding income before income
  taxes and fixed charges to derive adjusted income, and dividing adjusted
  income by fixed charges. Fixed charges consist of interest expense on debt
  (including the amortization of debt expense) and one-third (the proportion
  deemed representative of the interest portion) of rent expense.
