Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Roper Technologies, Inc. 2021 Incentive Plan (“2021 Plan”) is a stock-based compensation plan used to grant incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights or equivalent instruments to Roper’s employees, officers, directors and consultants. The 2021 Plan was approved by shareholders at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on June 14, 2021. The 2021 Plan replaces the Roper Technologies, Inc. Amended and Restated 2016 Incentive Plan (“2016 Plan”), and no additional grants will be made from the 2016 Plan. At December 31, 2021, 9.275 shares were available to grant under the 2021 Plan Under the Roper Technologies, Inc., Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), employees in the U.S. and Canada are allowed to designate up to 10% of eligible earnings to purchase Roper’s common stock at a 10% discount on the lower of the closing price of the stock on the first and last day of each quarterly offering period. Common stock sold to employees pursuant to the stock purchase plan may be either treasury stock, stock purchased on the open market, or newly issued shares. Stock based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 included as a component of “Selling, general and administrative expenses” was as follows:
| 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2019
Stock based compensation | $ | 136.1 |  |  | $ | 117.0 |  |  | $ | 101.2 |
Tax benefit recognized in net earnings | 28.6 |  |  | 24.6 |  |  | 21.3 |
During 2019, in connection with the sale of Gatan, we recognized $9.6 associated with accelerated vestings which was recognized within “Gain on disposal of businesses” within the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Stock Options – Stock options are typically granted at prices not less than 100% of market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant. Stock options typically vest over a weighted average period of 3 years from the grant date and expire 10 years after the grant date. The Company recorded $45.0, $38.6, and $29.9 of compensation expense relating to outstanding options during 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively, as a component of general and administrative expenses at Corporate. The Company estimates the fair value of its option awards using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The stock volatility for each grant is measured using the weighted-average of historical daily price changes of the Company’s common stock over the most recent period equal to the expected life of the grant. The expected term of options granted is derived from historical data to estimate option exercises and employee forfeitures, and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The weighted-average fair value of options granted in 2021, 2020 and 2019 were calculated using the following weighted-average assumptions:
| 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2019
Weighted-average fair value ($) | 95.17 |  |  | 63.22 |  |  | 68.05 |
Risk-free interest rate (%) | 0.94 |  |  | 0.81 |  |  | 2.37 |
Average expected option life (years) | 5.61 |  | 5.64 |  | 5.42
Expected volatility (%) | 25.14 |  |  | 20.39 |  |  | 19.22 |
Expected dividend yield (%) | 0.56 |  |  | 0.62 |  |  | 0.58 |
