Pastner Brands is a calendar-year firm with operations in several countries. As part of its executive compensation plan, at January 1, 2018, the company issued 440,000 executive stock options permitting executives to buy 440,000 shares of Pastner stock for $39 per share. One-fourth of the options vest in each of the next four years beginning at December 31, 2018 (graded vesting). Pastner elects to separate the total award into four groups (or tranches) according to the year in which they vest and measures the compensation cost for each vesting date as a separate award. The fair value of each tranche is estimated at January 1, 2018, as follows: Vesting Date Amount Vesting Fair Value per Option Dec. 31, 2018 25 % $ 4.00 Dec. 31, 2019 25 % $ 4.40 Dec. 31, 2020 25 % $ 4.80 Dec. 31, 2021 25 % $ 5.60 Required: 1. Determine the compensation expense related to the options to be recorded each year 2018–2021, assuming Pastner allocates the compensation cost for each of the four groups (tranches) separately. 2. Determine the compensation expense related to the options to be recorded each year 2018–2021, assuming Pastner uses the straight-line method to allocate the total compensation cost.

On January 1, 2018, Pine Company owns 40 percent (40,000 shares) of Seacrest, Inc., which it purchased several years ago for $182,000. Since the date of acquisition, the equity method has been properly applied, and the carrying amount of the investment account as of January 1, 2018, is $293,600. Excess patent cost amortization of $12,000 is still being recognized each year. During 2018, Seacrest reports net income of $342,000 and a $120,000 other comprehensive loss, both incurred uniformly throughout the year. No dividends were declared during the year. Pine sold 8,000 shares of Seacrest on August 1, 2018, for $93,000 in cash. However, Pine retains the ability to significantly influence the investee. During the last quarter of 2017, Pine sold $50,000 in inventory (which it had originally purchased for only $30,000) to Seacrest. At the end of that fiscal year, Seacrest's inventory retained $10,000 (at sales price) of this merchandise, which was subsequently sold in the first quarter of 2018.
