Explain the problems associated with Questionable Executive Compensation Schemes
What will be an ideal response?

Excessive use of short-term stock options to compensate directors and executives may result in short term thinking and strategies aimed at driving up stock prices at the expense of the firm's long-term health. In extreme cases, financial statement misrepresentation has been the vehicle to achieve the stock price needed to exercise the option.
