I have a question regarding the flash erase/program cycles. In the user manual
of msp430F4xx states that the number of cycles is min 10^4 and typical 10^5. I
do not know if a cycle is considered an erase + program, or erase is a cycle and
program is another cycle, so when i do an erase + program 2 cycles are
decremented from flash memory life.

No, erase + program together = 1 cycle.

A sector erase counts as one cycle on that sector.
