Earnings Per Share [Abstract] |
Earnings Per Share | Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Shares issued during the year are weighted for the portion of the year that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period. The reconciliation of Clearway Energy, Inc.'s basic and diluted earnings per share is shown in the following tables:
