Additional facts are as follows.
  1. “Selling, general, and administrative expenses” for 2014 included a charge of $8,500,000 that was usual but infrequently occurring.

  2. “Other, net” for 2014 included an extraordinary item (charge) of $6,000,000. If the extraordinary item (charge) had not occurred, income taxes for 2014 would have been $21,400,000 instead of $19,400,000.
