"Total compensation" plan design: reexamining stock options: how FASB's vote has affected the value of stock options

Article Abstract:

The Financial Accounting Standards Board rejected a proposal compelling employers to designate a value to stock options and to subtract that value from profits. Stock options confer on executives the privilege to buy stock at specified prices. The major types of stock options are the variable, or performance-based options and the fixed stock options. The types of options have different effects on the financial statements of a corporation. It was concluded that stock options benefit companies because they provide value to employees, employers and stockholders.
