Vesting Schedules Example: You are granted 5,000 RSUs. Your graded vesting schedule spans four years, and 25% of the grant vests each year. At the first anniversary of your grant date and on the same date over the subsequent three years, 1,250 shares vest.
Accounting for Restricted Stock/RSU Grants In general, future compensation expense related to restricted stock grants is based on the fair value of the stock on the grant date. The compensation expense is then recognized over the employees' service/vesting period.
Here's an example. Say you've been granted 1,500 RSUs and the vesting schedule is 20% after one year of service, and then equal quarterly installments thereafter for the next three years. This would mean that after staying with your company for a year, 300 shares would vest and become yours.
Taxation of RSUs The amount reported will equal the fair market value of the stock on the date of vesting, which is also the date of delivery in this case. Therefore, the value of the stock is reported as ordinary income in the year the stock becomes vested.
