On January 1, 2018, M Company granted 90,000 stock options to certain executives. The options are exercisable no sooner than Dec

ember 31, 2020, and expire on January 1, 2024. Each option can be exercised to acquire one share of $1 par common stock for $12. An option-pricing model estimates the fair value of the options to be $5 on the date of grant. If unexpected turnover in 2019 caused the company to estimate that 10% of the options would be forfeited, what amount should M recognize as compensation expense for 2019?

Answer:

$120,000

Explanation:

Given that,

stock options = 90,000

Each option can be exercised to acquire one share of $1 par common stock for $12.

Total Value of the option = stock options × fair value of the options

                                          = $90,000 × $5

                                          = $450,000

company to estimate that 10% of the options would be forfeited, so,

= 90% of Total Value of the option

= 0.9 × $450,000

= $405,000

2 out of 3 years = $405,000 × 2/3

                           = $270,000

=\frac{Total\ value\ of\ the\ options}{no.\ of\ years}

=\frac{450,000}{3}

= $150,000

Compensation expense (2019) = $270,000 - $150,000

                                                    = $120,000

Darya [45]

There are usually more positive than negatives when it comes to moving manufacturing from the United States to China. It's cheaper to pay wages in China for the same type of work that someone in America would expect to be paid. Not only can you pay the workers less, you can then afford to expand and hire more people due to saving the money on American wages. Usually, you can also get products cheaper in China and cut down the cost of your product. However, with cheaper labor and materials comes cheaper quality and the quality dropping may hurt consumers willingness to buy.

Cranford Company completed and transferred out 2,700 units in May 2016. There were 300 units in the Work-in-Process Inventory on
Lynna [10]

Answer:

The cost of the work transferred-out during May is $18,630

Explanation:

For computing the cost of work transferred, first we have to compute the conversion cost per unit and material cost per unit

The conversion cost per uni = Conversion cost ÷ (transferred units + work in progress)

= $11,160 ÷ (2,700 + 300 × 30%)

= $11,160 ÷ (2,700 + 90)

= $11,160 ÷ 2,790

= $4 per unit

Now, material cost per unit = Material cost ÷ (transferred units + work in progress)

= $8,700 ÷ (2,700+300)

= $8700 ÷ 3,000

= $2.9 per unit

So, total cost of the work transferred is equals to

= Transferred units × conversion cost per unit + transferred units × material cost per unit

= 2,700 × $4 + 2,700 × $2.9

= $10,800 + $7,830

= $18,630

Hence, the cost of the work transferred-out during May is $18,630
