Casaubon,
Sorry I'm no accountant. I'm sure there is a formula like Black-Scholes for calculating employee stock options. If an option expires worthless after 8 or 10 years, then the company would not have incentivized the worker with any monetary gain and would also have expensed it. You would get lower net income and less productivitity. That doesn't make sense.

How about expensing when options are exercised? That might make more sense.
