Mind, Here is a guy, John Hussman, with an options expensing proposal similar to what has been talked about on this thread from time to time---first setting the expense value at date of grant, but then adjusting the expense value over the life of the option as the time premium runs out and stock prices change. As I have mentioned before, I could go either way on this issue---expensing at date of grant with no further changes in response to declining time value and changing stock prices, or expensing at date of grant with further adjustments in response to declining time value and changing stock prices, but I think a proposal for expensing like Hussman's will meet less resistance than setting the expense one time at date of grant with no further adjustments. How and why stock options should be expensed from corporate earnings. John P. Hussman, Ph.D. hussman.net Regards, Huey
