|  | Three Months Ended December 31, |
|  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |
Sales and marketing |  | $ | 243,027 |  |  | $ | 175,118 |

Stock-based compensation expense included in operating expenses |  | $ | 988,857 |  |  | $ | 814,060 |
T he fair value calculations for stock-based compensation awards to employees for the three months ended De c ember 31, 2015 and 2014 were based on the following assumptions:
|  | Three Months Ended December 31, 2015 |  |  | Three Months Ended December 31, 2014 |
Risk-free interest rate |  | 1.57% – 1.75% |  |  | 1.63% – 1.66% |
Expected life (years) |  |  | 5.90 |  |  |  | 5.25 |
Expected volatility |  |  | 83% |  |  |  | 98% |
Expected dividends |  | None |  |  | None |
The expected life of options granted is derived using assumed exercise rates based on historical exercise patterns and vesting terms, and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. Expected stock price volatility is based upon implied volatility and other factors, including historical volatility. After assessing all available information on either historical volatility, implied volatility, or both, the Company concluded that a combination of both historical and implied volatility provides the best estimate of expected volatility.
