OT .. Lizzie, re "This is not to mention [edit: .. ] the pay concessions the employee takes for options, do we get to credit that as income?" "pay concessions"? You are recognizing that option-compensation is in lieu of cash compensation. Since the later is expensed, why shouldn't the former? If the company stopped granting stock options, wouldn't it need to increase cash compensation to remain competitive in the labor market? "get to credit that to income"? Lizzie, that's exactly what is occurring right now, because the value of option grants is not being expensed. Congratulations. You are picking up bits and pieces of this options puzzle. One of these days, you're going to be able to put it all together. Ron
