But it isn’t easy, and attempting to use slow or manual tools can make these plans that much harder to understand for your employees. That calls for a stock plan management solution that can serve you, and them, transparently and accurately.
ASC 718 Alignment
ASC 718 is a critical part of accounting for the value of stock options awarded to employees. This method allows companies to record and report employee compensation from their benefits packages. Astrella will help you assess the fair value of these packages, record compensation in your books as such, and accurately report these expenses to the IRS as a streamlined part of your cap table management solutions.
