Capital Stock [Abstract] |
Capital Stock | CAPITAL STOCK The aggregate number of shares of all classes of stock with which we are authorized to issue is up to 1,000,500,000, divided into two classes consisting of 500,000 shares of $1 par value preferred stock and 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.10. No shares of preferred stock were outstanding on December 31, 2018. In 2018 we repurchased 1.9 million shares at a cost of $300. The manner, timing and amount of repurchases are determined by management based on an evaluation of market conditions, stock price and other factors and are subject to regulatory considerations. Purchases are made from time-to-time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. On December 31, 2018 the total dollar value of shares that could be purchased under our authorized repurchase program was $1,340. Shares reserved for future compensation grants of our common stock were 33 million and 37 million on December 31, 2018 and 2017. Stock Options We measure the cost of employee stock options based on the grant-date fair value and recognize that cost using the straight-line method over the period in which a recipient is required to provide services in exchange for the options, typically the vesting period. The weighted-average fair value per share of options is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
Option Value and Assumptions

Weighted-average fair value per share | $ | 28.52 |  |  | $ | 22.43 |  |  | $ | 17.73 |
Assumptions: |  |  |  |  |
Risk-free interest rate | 2.7 | % |  | 2.0 | % |  | 1.3 | %

Expected option life (years) | 6.0 |  |  | 6.0 |  |  | 6.1 |
The risk-free interest rate for periods within the expected life of options granted is based on the United States Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected stock price volatility is based on the historical volatility of our stock. The expected option life, representing the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, is based on historical option exercise and employee termination data.
