I disagree that B/S determines the cost of an option to the company issuing it. It does determine the cost for an independent to write the option, but a company has the luxury of issuing stock to cover the option. The company's option cost is lower than a market-maker's cost -- the cost is dilution. Today's financial statements, I think, accurately reflect the cost of stock options.
