Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] |
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION Our 2014 Long Term Stock Incentive Plan (the "2014 Plan") replaced the 2005 Long Term Stock Incentive Plan in May 2014 and provides for the issuance of stock-based incentives in various forms to employees and non-employee Directors of the Company. At December 31, 2016, outstanding stock-based incentives were in the form of long-term stock awards, stock options, phantom stock awards and stock appreciation rights. Pre-tax compensation expense and the related income tax benefit for these stock-based incentives were as follows, in millions:

Long-term stock awards | $ | 23 |  |  | $ | 23 |  |  | $ | 33 |

Income tax benefit (37 percent tax rate) | $ | 11 |  |  | $ | 14 |  |  | $ | 16 |
At December 31, 2016, 16.3 million shares of our common stock were available under the 2014 Plan for the granting of stock options and other long-term stock incentive awards. L. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION (Continued) Long-Term Stock Awards. Long-term stock awards are granted to our key employees and non-employee Directors and do not cause net share dilution inasmuch as we continue the practice of repurchasing and retiring an equal number of shares in the open market. We granted 1,055,380 shares of long-term stock awards during 2016. Our long-term stock award activity was as follows, shares in millions:

(A) | In connection with the spin off of TopBuild, TopBuild employees forfeited their outstanding Masco equity awards.
(B) | Subsequent to the separation of TopBuild, we modified our outstanding equity awards to employees and non-employee Directors such that all individuals received an equivalent fair value both before and after the separation. The modification to the outstanding stock awards was made pursuant to existing anti-dilution provisions in our 2014 Plan and 2005 Long Term Incentive Plan.
At December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, there was $43 million, $42 million and $60 million, respectively, of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock awards; such awards had a weighted average remaining vesting period of three years at December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014. The total market value (at the vesting date) of stock award shares which vested during 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $43 million, $54 million and $50 million, respectively. Stock Options. Stock options are granted to our key employees. The exercise price equals the market price of our common stock at the grant date. These options generally become exercisable (vest ratably) over five years beginning on the first anniversary from the date of grant and expire no later than 10 years after the grant date. We granted 474,500 shares of stock options during 2016 with a grant date weighted-average exercise price of approximately $26 per share. During 2016, no stock option shares were forfeited (including options that expired unexercised). L. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION (Continued) Our stock option activity was as follows, shares in millions:

Phantom Stock Awards and Stock Appreciation Rights ("SARs"). We grant phantom stock awards and SARs to certain non-U.S. employees. Phantom stock awards are linked to the value of our common stock on the date of grant and are settled in cash upon vesting, typically over 5 to 10 years. We account for phantom stock awards as liability-based awards; the compensation expense is initially measured as the market price of our common stock at the grant date and is recognized over the vesting period. The liability is remeasured and adjusted at the end of each reporting period until the awards are fully-vested and paid to the employees. We recognized expense of $2 million related to phantom stock awards in 2016, and $5 million in both 2015 and 2014. In 2016, 2015 and 2014, we granted 140,710 shares, 134,560 shares and 183,530 shares, respectively, of phantom stock awards with an aggregate fair value of $4 million each year, and paid $5 million, $6 million and $5 million of cash in 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively, to settle phantom stock awards. SARs are linked to the value of our common stock on the date of grant and are settled in cash upon exercise. We account for SARs using the fair value method, which requires outstanding SARs to be classified as liability-based awards and valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model at the grant date; such fair value is recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period, typically five years. The liability is remeasured and adjusted at the end of each reporting period until the SARs are exercised and payment is made to the employees or the SARs expire. We recognized expense of $2 million, $6 million and $1 million related to SARs in 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. During 2016, 2015 and 2014, we did not grant any SARs.
