11. On January 2, 2007, Stoner Corporation granted stock options to key employees for the purchase of 60,000 shares of the company’s common stock at $25 per share. The options are intended to compensate employees for the next two years. The options are exercisable within a four-year period beginning January 1, 2009, by grantees still in the employ of the company. The market price of Stoner’s common stock is $32 per share at the date of grant, and application of an option pricing model results in a computed value of $10 per option as of the grant date. Assume that no stock options were terminated during the year. How much should Stoner charge to compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2007?

A. $600,000 C. $300,000

B. $420,000 D. $210,000

Total Compensation Expense = Number of Shares to Be Issued × Price per Share as per the option pricing model

Total Compensation = 60,000 × $10

= $600,000

This amount is expensed over the period from the date of grant till the vesting date (which is 2 years from January 2, 2007 to January 1, 2009)

Therefore Compensation Expense for the year ended December 31, 2007 = $600,000 / 2

Ending retained earnings = Beginning balance – stock dividend – net loss

= 80,000-7,000-12,000=$61,000
