JBL Aircraft manufactures and distributes aircraft parts and
supplies. Employees are offered a variety of share-based
compensation plans. Under its nonqualified stock option plan, JBL
granted options to key officers on January 1, 2018. The options
permit holders to acquire 6.5 million of the company's $1 par
common shares for $22 within the next six years, but not before
January 1, 2021 (the vesting date). The market price of the shares
on the date of grant is $26 per share. The fair value of the 6.5
million options, estimated by an appropriate option pricing model,
is $6 per option. Because the plan does not qualify as an incentive
plan, JBL 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 tax rate is 40%.
Required:
1. Determine the total compensation cost
pertaining to the incentive stock option plan.
2. & 3. Record the necessary journal entries
on December 31, 2018, 2019, and 2020. Assume all of the options are
exercised on August 21, 2022, when the market price is $27 per
share.
Determine the total compensation cost pertaining to the incentive stock option plan. (Enter your answer in millions (i.e., 10,000,000 should be entered as 10).)
