Bafi, <<Anything of value that is given away in a compensation package should be expensed at its market value at the time of issue.>> The problem with this logic is that an unexercised option (expired worthless) has no cost to the company. Expensing items with no associated cost to the company pisses off the tax man. The logical extension would be to tax the employee for options they don't get to exercise. Pete
