We follow accounting guidance regarding determining whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities. This accounting guidance clarifies that share-based payment awards that entitle their holders to receive non-forfeitable dividends prior to vesting should be considered participating securities. We have granted restricted stock awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends on unvested shares; such unvested restricted stock awards are considered participating securities. As participating securities, the unvested shares are required to be included in the calculation of our basic earnings per common share, using the "two-class method." The two-class method of computing earnings per common share is an allocation method that calculates earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, we allocated dividends and undistributed earnings to the participating securities. R. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE (Concluded) Additionally, 354,000, 338,000 and 5 million common shares for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, related to stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per common share due to their antidilutive effect. Common shares outstanding included on our balance sheet and for the calculation of earnings per common share do not include unvested stock awards (3 million common shares and 4 million common shares at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively); shares outstanding for legal requirements included all common shares that have voting rights (including unvested stock awards).
