On November $1,2025,$ Sunland Company adopted a stock$-$option plan that granted options to key executives to

purchase $24,300$ shares of the company's $$10$ par value common stock. The options were granted on January $2,2026,$ and were

exercisable $2$ years after the date of grant if the grantee was still an employee of the company. The options expired $6$ years from date of

grant. The option price was set at $$50,$ and the fair value option$-$pricing model determines the total compensation expense to be

$$364,500.$

All of the options were exercised during the year $2028$: $16,200$ on January $3$ when the market price was $$66,$ and $8,100$ on May $1$ when

the market price was $$75$ a share.
