The market price of the common stock on the date of grant was $20, and the fair value of each option is $2. The options may be exercised any time after 1/1/17, and the service period is two years. The stock price at the end of the year was $25; average stock price for the year was $22.50.
3. 400,000 shares of preferred stock were converted into common stock on 5/1/17. Marmack issued common stock and retired the preferred stock.
