Re: Options What that article ignores is the fact that every single dollar that Cisco expenses here is accounted for as individual income for the employees exercising. Which means that the government is getting its tax on the entire amount. It's just not getting to tax it twice. Re: Purchase vs. Pooling It is not clear at all that clouding the next twenty years of results with ammortized goodwill makes any sense. In the end, it doesn't matter due to the fact that any analyst worth his salt is doing free cash flow, and is thus ignoring it anyway. In the end, pooling makes it hard to properly calibrate historical models, which is why it'll go.
