Chuzz - nobody is hiding the cost. The question is whether a guessed-at value should be included in the financial statements. Or do you suggest that they wait until the value is known (i.e. when exercise occurs).

I am against "fair value" accounting (see my post to Freeus). I've seen it before and it does not work. And I think waiting until exercise to record the expense is too late.

Not everything belongs in financial statements, you know. Particularly when those things are based on appraised or otherwise estimated and unreliable values.
