Re: Congress Votes to Keep Options Off P&L

This is a great victory for the US corporations. I share the view that U.S. companies presently don't have to treat stock options as expenses like salaries or bonuses on their income statements. Only footnote disclosures are required.

start-up companies often use the employees stock option plan to attract workers. How can these small companies record a profit if they treat employees stock option as expenses, except a few big companies such as MSFT, CSCO, QCOM, C etc...
