Snow Creek Village West offers its employees a defined benefit pension plan and stock option, Snow Creek Village West complies with US GAAP.
The information on the following table:
Compared to the reported 2018 financial statements, if Snow had used the 2016 expected volatility assumption to value its employee stock options, it would have most likely reported higher:
选项:
A.deferred compensation liability
B.compensation expense
C.net income
解释:
B is correct.
考点:养老金的假设
解析:先判断大方向,题干问你,如果选择2016年的Expected volatility 也就是45%来代替2018年的35%,这是波动率变大的趋势,波动越大,option 的价值也就越大,所以compensation expense会变大,NI会降低。
stock option是在服务期内每年确认费用的,没有递延负债,所以A不对。
解答中的这个怎么解释 为什么期权价值变大,工资费用也会变大
