Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] |
Share-Based Awards, Purchase Plans and Compensation Cost | Share-Based Awards, Purchase Plans and Compensation Cost Stock Option and Award Plan. The Company has a stock incentive plan under which it grants stock options and share awards to directors, officers and other employees. Option price is the market price on the date of grant. Options become exercisable at such time, generally over 3 years or 4 years, and in such installments as set by the Company, and expire 10 years from the date of grant. Restricted share awards have been made to certain key employees under the plan. The market value of restricted stock at the date of grant is charged to operations over the vesting period. Compensation cost related to restricted shares is not significant. The Company has a stock appreciation plan that provides for payments of cash to eligible foreign employees based on the change in the market price of the Company’s common stock over a period of time. Compensation cost related to the stock appreciation plan was $3.1 million in 2021, $2.4 million in 2020 and $3.3 million in 2019. Individual nonemployee directors of the Company may elect to receive, either currently or deferred, all or part of their retainer in the form of shares of the Company’s common stock instead of cash. Under this arrangement, the Company issued 12,070 shares in 2021, 15,243 shares in 2020 and 15,016 shares in 2019. The expense related to this arrangement is not significant.

As of December 31, 2021, there was $9.8 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested options, expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.4 years. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions and results:
| 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2019
Expected life in years | 7.5 |  | 7.5 |  | 6.8
Interest rate | 0.9 | % |  | 1.4 | % |  | 2.3 | %
Volatility | 25.2 | % |  | 22.0 | % |  | 24.0 | %
Dividend yield | 1.0 | % |  | 1.3 | % |  | 1.4 | %
Weighted average fair value per share | $ | 17.87 |  |  | $ | 12.18 |  |  | $ | 11.31 |
Expected life is estimated based on vesting terms and exercise and termination history. Interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury rate on zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the option. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility over a period commensurate with the expected life of options. The fair value of employees’ purchase rights under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan was estimated on the date of grant. The benefit of the 15 percent discount from the lesser of the fair market value per common share on the first day and the last day of the plan year was added to the fair value of the employees’ purchase rights determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions and results:
| 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2019
Expected life in years | 1.0 |  | 1.0 |  | 1.0
Interest rate | 0.1 | % |  | 1.5 | % |  | 2.6 | %
Volatility | 40.1 | % |  | 21.9 | % |  | 22.7 | %
Dividend yield | 1.1 | % |  | 1.4 | % |  | 1.4 | %
Weighted average fair value per share | $ | 21.50 |  |  | $ | 11.55 |  |  | $ | 11.36 |
