The exercise price is the market price of the shares on the date of grant, currently $16 per share. The fair value of the options, estimated by an appropriate option pricing model, is $3 per option. Management's policy is to estimate forfeitures. No forfeitures are anticipated. Ignore taxes. Required: 1. Determine the total compensation cost pertaining to the options on January 1, 2018 2. Prepare the appropriate journal entry to record compensation expense on December 31, 2018. 3. Unexpected turnover during 2019 caused an estimate of the forfeiture of 5% of the stock options. Determine the adjusted compensation cost, and prepare the appropriate journal entry(s) on December 31, 2019 and 2020
