I maintain that the Treasury Stock method is the method which determines the quantity of diluted shares in the fully diluted earnings per share calculation. A company can expense options or not. It will not affect the calculation of shares. The calculation of diluted shares is what the Treasury Stock method is used for. It isn't an old or new way concept on how to account or not account for option expense. We are not on the same page and you know it.

You are very devious when asked direct questions to explain your claims or to provide proof of your assertions.
