P16-3 (Stock-Option Plan) Berg Company adopted a stock-option plan on November 30, 2011, that
provided that 70,000 shares of $5.00 par value stock be designated as available
for the granting of options to officers of the corporation at a price of $9.00 a share. The
market price was $12.00 a share on November 30, 2012.
On January 2, 2012, options to purchase 28,000 shares were granted to president
Tom Winter - 15,000 for services rendered in 2012 and 13,000 for services to
be rendered in 2013. Also on that date, options to purchase 14,000 shares were
granted to vice president Michelle Bennett - 7,000 for services to be rendered in 2012 and
7,000 for services to be rendered in 2013. The market value of the stock was
$14 a share on January 2, 2012. The options were exercisable for a period of one year
following the year in which the services were rendered. The fair value of the options on the grant date
was $4 per option.
In 2013 neither the president nor the vice president exercised their options because the market price
of the stock was below the exercise price. The market value of the stock was $8
a share on December 31, 2013, when the options for 2012 services lapsed.
On December 31, 2014, both president Winter and vice president Bennett exercised their options for
13,000 and 7,000 shares, respectively, when the market price was
$16 a share.
Instructions:
Prepare the necessary journal entries in 2011 when the stock-option plan was adopted, in 2012 when options were granted, in 2013 when options lapsed, and in 2014 when options were exercised.
