More on IBM diluted earnings

New accounting rules went into effect 12/15. The # is now $2.11.

CNBC Kernan is questioning whether all analysts were using the new technique (whatever it is). to get the diluted number. I guess if not, their ests may have been high.

Any accountants here to tell us what the new rules are? ASND could also be affected.
