The following events occurred regarding the company's executive compensation plan: 1. On 1/1/x4, the stockholders adopted a stock option plan for two executives whereby each might receive rights to purchase up to 20,000 shares of common stock at $40 per share. The par value is $10 per share. 2. On 2/1/x4, options were granted to each of five executives to purchase 20,000 shares. The options were non-transferable and the executive had to remain an employee of the company to exercise the option. The options expire on 2/1/x6. It is assumed that the options were for services performed equally in 20x4 and 20x5. The Black-Scholes option pricing model determines total compensation expense to be $2,100,000. 3. At 2/1/x6, four executives exercised their options. The fifth executive chose not to exercise his options, which therefore were forfeited. SHOW ALL WORK a.
