      FIN 46R. Net income in 2004 included net after-tax charges of $154 million, or $0.87 per share — diluted, for
      rationalizations and related accelerated depreciation, general and product liability-discontinued products,

    sales. Net income in 2004 also included net after-tax benefits of $239 million, or $1.34 per share — diluted,

(6) Net loss in 2002 included net after-tax charges of $24 million, or $0.14 per share — diluted, for general and
    product liability — discontinued products, asset sales, rationalizations, and the write-off of a miscellaneous
    investment. Net loss also included a non-cash charge of $1.2 billion, or $7.31 per share — diluted, to establish
    a valuation allowance against net federal and state deferred tax assets. Of these amounts, discontinued
    operations in 2002 included net after-tax charges of $5 million, or $0.03 per share — diluted, for
