Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] |
Share and Unit-Based Plans | Share and Unit-Based Plans: Under the Long-Term Incentive Plan ("LTIP"), each award recipient is issued a form of units ("LTIP Units") in the Operating Partnership. Upon the occurrence of specified events and subject to the satisfaction of applicable vesting conditions, LTIP Units (after conversion into OP Units) are ultimately redeemable for common stock of the Company, or cash at the Company's option, on a one-unit for one-share basis. LTIP Units receive cash dividends based on the dividend amount paid on the common stock of the Company. The LTIP may include both market-indexed awards and service-based awards. The market-indexed LTIP Units vest over the service period of the award based on the percentile ranking of the Company in terms of total return to the stockholders (the "Total Return") per common stock share relative to the Total Return of a group of peer REITs, as measured at the end of the measurement period. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company granted the following LTIP Units:
Grant Date |  | Units |  | Type |  | Fair Value per LTIP Unit |  | Vest Date
1/1/2018 |  | 65,466 |  |  | Service-based |  | $ | 65.68 |  |  | 12/31/2020
1/1/2018 |  | 291,326 |  |  | Market-indexed |  | $ | 44.28 |  |  | 12/31/2020

1/29/2018 |  | 1,893 |  |  | Service-based |  | $ | 66.02 |  |  | 12/31/2020
1/29/2018 |  | 7,775 |  |  | Market-indexed |  | $ | 48.23 |  |  | 12/31/2020

|  | 479,499 |  |  |  |  |  |  |
The fair value of the marked-indexed LTIP Units granted on January 1, 2018 were estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo Simulation model that assumed a risk free interest rate of 1.98% and an expected volatility of 23.38%. The fair value of the marked-indexed LTIP Units granted on January 29, 2018 were estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo Simulation model that assumed a risk free interest rate of 2.25% and an expected volatility of 23.86%. The following summarizes the compensation cost under the share and unit-based plans:
