[1] Expected option life - We use historical employee exercise and option expiration data to estimate the expected life assumption for the Black-Scholes grant-date valuation. We believe that this historical data is currently the best estimate of the expected term of a new option. We use a weighted-average expected life for all awards.
[2] Expected stock price volatility - We use our stock's historical volatility for the same period of time as the expected life. We have no reason to believe that its future volatility will differ from the past.
[3] Risk-free interest rate - The rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant for the same period of time as the expected life.
[4] Expected dividend yield - The calculation is based on the total expected annual dividend payout divided by the average stock price.
