8. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with Codification Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, which generally requires us to recognize non-cash compensation expense for stock-based payments using the fair-value-based method. The fair value of each stock option grant has been estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Accordingly, we recorded compensation expense pertaining to stock-based compensation of $7,940 and $9,463 during the three-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and $24,261 and $27,480 during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
