(1) | In the fiscal year 2011 Annual Report to Shareholders and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, economic profit (EP) for all fiscal years presented included the results of the Auto Businesses (but excluded the net gain on sale) because this was the method used by the Company to calculate EP to determine the amount of short-term compensation for fiscal year 2011. In the current fiscal year and in this table, EP calculations for all fiscal years presented exclude the Auto Businesses. |
(2) | Adjusted after tax profit represents earnings from continuing operations before income taxes, noncash restructuring-related and asset impairment costs,noncash goodwill impairment and interest expense, after tax. The tax rate applied is the effective tax rate on continuing operations before the noncash goodwill impairment charge for fiscal year 2011, which was 31.4%, 33.8% and 34.7% in fiscal years 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The difference between the fiscal year 2011 effective tax rate on continuing operations before the noncash goodwill impairment charge and the effective tax rate on continuing operations of 49% is (16.0)% related to the non-deductible noncash goodwill impairment charge and 0.8% for other tax effects related to excluding this charge. |
(3) | Total capital employed represents total assets less non-interest bearing liabilities. Adjusted capital employed represents total capital employed adjusted to add back current year noncash restructuring-related and asset impairment costs and noncash goodwill impairment. Average capital employed represents a two-point average of adjusted capital employed for the current year and total capital employed for the prior year, based on year-end balances. See below for details of the average capital employed calculation: |
