- [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Similarly, we estimate the fair value of stock options at the grant date and expense it over the service period, usually from the date of grant to the vesting date. Fair value is estimated at the grant date using an option-pricing model that considers the exercise price and expected term of the option, the current market price of the underlying stock and its expected volatility, expected dividends, and the expected risk-free rate of return. Knowledge Check 01 On January 1, Year 1, Abbott Company granted 92,000 stock options to certain executives. The options are exercisable no sooner than December 31, Year 3, and expire on January 1, Year 7. Each option can be exercised to acquire one share of $1 par common stock for $14.

- Both call and put options are affected by the following five factors: the exercise price, the underlying stock price, the time to expiration, the stock’s standard deviation, and the risk-free rate. However, the direction of the effects on call and put options could be different. Use the following table to identify whether each statement describes put options or call options. Statement Put Option Call Option 1. When the exercise price increases, option prices increase. 2. An option is more valuable the longer the maturity. 3. The effect of the time to maturity on the option prices is indeterminate. 4. As the risk-free rate increases, the value of the option increases.arrow_forwarddiscussed that equity can be thought of as an option on the firm.
