NOTE 8 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY | 12 Months Ended
--- | ---
Dec. 31, 2011
Stockholders' Equity Note Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE 8 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM Pursuant to Asure’s stock repurchase plan, the Company is allowed to repurchase up to 300 shares of the Company’s common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2010 Asure repurchased 43 shares of common stock for $110. In total, Asure has repurchased 256 shares for approximately $5.0 million over the life of the plan. Management will periodically assess repurchasing additional shares, depending on the Company’s cash position, market conditions and other factors. While the program remains in place, the Company did not repurchase any shares during 2011. STOCK AND STOCK OPTION PLANS Asure has one active equity plan, the 2009 Equity Plan (the "2009 Plan"). The 2009 Plan provides for the issuance of non-qualified and incentive stock options to employees and consultants of the Company. Stock options are generally granted with exercise price greater than or equal to the fair market value at the time of grant and the options generally vest over three to four years and are exercisable for a period of five to ten years beginning with date of grant. The Company’s 1996 Plan expired in April 2006, whereby the Company can no longer grant options under these plans. However, options previously granted remain outstanding. Total compensation expense recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for stock based awards was $81 and 53 for the years ending December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The following table summarizes the assumptions used to develop their fair value for 2011, 2010:
