Bargain element. The bargain element in the exercise of an option is the difference between the value of the stock on the exercise date and the amount paid for the stock. Example: You have an option that gives you the right to buy 1,000 shares of stock for $15 per share. If you exercise the entire option at a time when the value of the stock is $40 per share, the bargain element is $25,000 ($40,000 minus $15,000). The value of the stock should be determined as of the date of exercise.

Public Key Cryptography (PKC) Public key cryptography (PKC) is an encryption technique that uses a paired public and private key (or asymmetric key) algorithm for secure data communication. A message sender uses a recipient's public key to encrypt a message. To decrypt the sender's message, only the recipient's private key may be used. The two types of PKC algorithms are RSA, which is an acronym related to this algorithm's inventors: Rivest, Shamir and Adelman and Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA).
