Sarasota Company adopted a stock-option plan on November 30, 2016, that provided that 67,700 shares of $5 par value stock be designated as available for the granting of options to officers of the corporation at a price of $9 a share. The market price was $12 a share on November 30, 2017.

On January 2, 2017, options to purchase 28,600 shares were granted to president Tom Winterâ14,900 for services to be rendered in 2017 and 13,700 for services to be rendered in 2018. Also on that date, options to purchase 14,600 shares were granted to vice president Michelle Bennettâ7,300 for services to be rendered in 2017 and 7,300 for services to be rendered in 2018. The market price of the stock was $14 a share on January 2, 2017. 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 2018, neither the president nor the vice president exercised their options because the market price of the stock was below the exercise price. The market price of the stock was $8 a share on December 31, 2018, when the options for 2017 services lapsed.

On December 31, 2019, both president Winter and vice president Bennett exercised their options for 13,700 and 7,300 shares, respectively, when the market price was $16 a share.

Walters Audio Visual, Inc., offers a stock option plan to its regional managers. On January 1, 2016, options were granted for 40 million $1 par common shares. The exercise price is the market price on the grant date, $8 per share. Options cannot be exercised prior to January 1, 2018, and expire December 31, 2022. The fair value of the options, estimated by an appropriate option pricing model, is $2 per option. Because the plan does not qualify as an incentive plan, Walters will receive a tax deduction upon exercise of the options equal to the excess of the market price at exercise over the exercise price. The income tax rate is 40%.
