Belden, Inc. acquires 30 percent of the outstanding voting shares of Sheffield, Inc. on January 1, 2017, for $306,000, which gives Belden the ability to significantly influence Sheffield. Sheffield has a net book value of $784,000 at January 1, 2017. Sheffield's asset and liability accounts showed carrying amounts considered equal to fair values except for a copyright whose value accounted for Belden's excess cost over book value in its 30 percent purchase. The copyright had a remaining life of 16 years at January 1, 2017. No goodwill resulted from Belden's share purchase. Sheffield reported net income of $172,000 in 2017 and $250,000 of net income during 2018. Dividends of $96,000 and $92,000 are declared and paid in 2017 and 2018, respectively.

Please answer the following question,

Vanstone Corp., a public company, adopted a stock option plan on November 30, 2017, that designated 70,000 common shares as available for the granting of options to officers of the corporation at an exercise price of $8 a share. The market value was $12 a share on November 30, 2017.

On January 2, 2018, options to purchase 28,000 shares were granted to President Don Pedro: 15,000 for services to be rendered in 2018, and 13,000 for services to be rendered in 2019. Also on that date, options to purchase 14,000 shares were granted to Vice-President Beatrice Leonato: 7,000 for services to be rendered in 2018, and 7,000 for services to be rendered in 2019. The shares' market value was $14 a share on January 2, 2018. The options were exercisable for a period of one year following the year in which the services were rendered. On January 2, 2018, the value of the options was estimated at $400,000.

In 2019, neither the president nor the vice-president exercised their options because the shares' market price was below the exercise price. The shares' market value was $7 a share on December 31, 2019, when the options for 2018 services lapsed.

On December 31, 2020, both the president and vice-president exercised their options for 13,000 and 7,000 shares, respectively, when the market price was $16 a share. The company's year-end is December 31.

Instructions

1) Prepare the necessary journal entries in 2017 when the stock option plan was adopted, in 2018 when the options were granted, in 2019 when the options lapsed, and in 2020 when the options were exercised.
