On the grant date, January 1st, 2015, the stock was quoted on the stock exchange at $63 per share. The fair value of the options on the grant date was estimated at $15 per option. The amounts of compensation expense ABC should recognize with respect to the options during 2015, 2016, and 2017 are:

2015 $31,500

2016 $31,500

2017 $31,500

Explanation:

Number of Options in total × Fair Value of the Stock per option

Where

Number of Options in total = 63

Fair Value of the Stock per option =15

Hence:

(63*100) ×$15

=$6,300 ×$15

= $ 94,500

Compensation expense will be:

2015, 2016, and 2017 will give us 3 years

= $94,500/3

= $31,500 for 2015, 2016, and 2017

Fair value of the options is said to be evaluated on grant date and expenditure is been recognised in 3 years because the employee will be working for 3 years which is from year 2015 to 2017
