Par Value is the selling price orignally asked when a stock is first issued. Assuming that the stock is "worth" the par valueat the time it is issued then the answer is B but par value for a stock doesn't always reflect the worth of a stock. Stocks are bought and sold most of the time at over par although they can be bought under par sometimes. Par Value doesn't change but the worth does. If a company issues 1,000,000 shares of stock at par of $5 they generate $5,000,000 of capital to use for their company. If in the next 5 years the company is growing and investors think the company will continue to grow and pay good dividends they may be willing to pay $10 per share for the stock. The company does not get this money and the Par Value doesn't change. Some of the investors who bought the original shares at $5 may be willing to sell them for $10. They are the ones who make the gain. |

What's the difference between A quick search on "stock
options" shows that many
companies are switching from
"stock options" to "restricted
stocks" as an employee
compansation vechicle.
Below is what I learned from
my research. It could be wrong
though.
The sales of "stock options"
are usually reported as loss.
It reduces the company's tax
liability, but also adversely
affects the company's profit.
From 2006, most companies are
required to disclose the
impact of the "stock options"
sales to the public.
My questions,
When a company issues
"restricted stocks" and the
employee sells them, is the
proceeding counted as "loss"
like "stock options"?
Why companies don't switch
until recently? Does it have
anything do to with the new
SEC reporting requirement?
Thanks,

A stock option gives the employee the option to purchase shares ofthe stock from the company at a predetermined price. Restricted stock are shares of the company that have restrictions placed on them (usually when they can be sold). Companies have switched because starting this year they are required to treat options as an expense. up until this year companies did not have to report options and so they had no effect on earnings. Now, they are treated as an expense, the company has to purchase the shares in order to give sell them to the employee. As options are only excersized if the current pprice is higher than the buy price, this automatically results in a loss for the company. Restricted shares are new shares that are issued by the company and therefore do not cost them anything. |

Recipe using chicken stock, to What is a recipe that uses
chicken stock, that will take
advantage of the flavors of a
good homemade stock?
In reading discussions of
homemade vs store-bought
stock, ppl say they use
homemade for "delicate" soups
and other recipes. For
non-delicate recipes such as
braises which would overpower
the stock, store-bought is
fine.
So what would be a good
"delicate" recipe? Is
butternut squash soup
"delicate"?

Butternut squash soup isn't really delicate, but would probably taste great made with homemade stock. I'd say, make whatever you want with it, homemade will taste better than store bought and its probably better for you. If you really want to taste the stock, make your own chicken noodle soup with big chunks of chicken, carrot, and celery and egg noodles. Also, risotto might be a good use for the home made stuff. |
