The Company is authorized to issue 400 million shares of all classes of stock, of which 50 million may be preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 350 million may be common stock, par value $0.01 per share. The Company declared dividends per share of $1.89 in 2016, $1.66 in 2015, and $1.45 in 2014.

The Company established a benefit security trust in 1997 to provide a degree of financial security for unfunded obligations under certain unfunded plans and contributed to the trust a warrant to purchase up to 6 million shares of common stock of the Company for par value. The warrant, which remains outstanding, is exercisable by the trustee if the Company does not meet certain funding obligations, which obligations would be triggered by certain occurrences, including a change in control or potential change in control, as defined, or failure by the Company to meet its payment obligations under certain covered unfunded plans. Such warrant is excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the conditions upon which the warrant becomes exercisable have not been met.

The additions to paid-in capital in 2016, 2015, and 2014 are primarily for compensation expense of equity awards and employee stock option exercises.

In May 2013, the Company's Board of Directors authorized repurchase of up to $300 million of the Company's outstanding common stock. The Company completed the $300 million repurchase authorization in March 2014, acquiring a total of 3,840,949 shares. In February 2014, the Company's Board of Directors authorized repurchase of up to an additional $1 billion of the Company's outstanding common stock at such times, in such amounts, and on such terms, as determined to be in the best interests of the Company. As of December 31, 2016, a total of 6,542,190 shares have been repurchased under this authorization for a total of $498 million. During 2016, the Company repurchased 2,131,501 shares of common stock for a cost of approximately $145 million. During 2015, the Company repurchased 1,477,660 shares of common stock for a cost of approximately $103 million. During 2014, the Company repurchased 4,945,452 shares of common stock for a cost of approximately $410 million.

The Company's charitable foundation held 50,798 shares of the Company's common stock at December 31, 2016, 2015, and 2014 which are included in treasury stock.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") from continuing operations:

Earnings per share are calculated using whole dollars and shares.

Stock options excluded from the 2016 calculation of diluted earnings per share were 1,072,468 because the market value of option exercises for these awards was less than the cash proceeds that would be received from these exercises. Stock options excluded from the 2015 and 2014 calculations of diluted earnings per share were 768,134 and 272,143, respectively, because the market value of option exercises for these awards was less than the cash proceeds that would be received from these exercises.

See Note 1, "Significant Accounting Policies", regarding correction of prior period foreign currency translation.

Amounts of other comprehensive income (loss) are presented net of applicable taxes. The Company records deferred income taxes on the cumulative translation adjustment related to branch operations and other entities included in the Company's consolidated U.S. tax return. No deferred income taxes are provided on the cumulative translation adjustment of subsidiaries outside the United States, as such cumulative translation adjustment is considered to be a component of indefinitely invested, unremitted earnings of these foreign subsidiaries.

Components of other comprehensive income recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Comprehensive Income and Retained Earnings are presented below, before tax and net of tax effects:
