    Annual Stock Option Grants Calculator (Canadian) Definitions

    Current stock price

    Current stock price. For this calculator, the current stock price is assumed to be the strike price. The strike price is the stock price that your options were issued at. The underlying stock price must exceed the strike price for your options to have any value.

    Stock appreciates at

    This is the annual rate of return you expect from the stock underlying your options. Thanks to the leveraged nature of your stock options, once the underlying stock value has exceeded your strike price, the value of your options will increase at an accelerated rate. The actual rate of return is largely dependent on the type of investments you select. For example, the total return including dividends of the S&P/TSX Composite Index for the 10 year period from December 31, 2014 through December 31, 2024 was 8.7% (source www.spglobal.com). Savings accounts at a bank or credit union may pay as little as 2% or less. It is important to remember that future rates of return can't be predicted with certainty and that investments that pay higher rates of return are subject to higher risk and volatility. The actual rate of return on investments can vary widely over time, especially for long-term investments. This includes the potential loss of principal on your investment.
