Yeah, Black Scholes is certainly a guess, not a fact.

But what in accounting is absolute fact? Not much.

For example, Black-Scholes does a much better job estimating the value of an option than a FASB chart estimates the life of a plant or a piece of equipment.

That doesn't mean that depreciation isn't a legitimate cost of doing business. It is.

So is awarding options to employees.
