compensatory share option plan for its 70 employees. The plan document states that each employee may
purchase 500 shares of its P20 par ordinary shares for P35 per share after one year if revenues reach P15M,
after 2 years if revenues reach 18M, or after three years if revenues reach P20M. On this date, based on a
reliable option pricing model, Nam Inc. estimates that each option which can be exercised up to 2018 under
the condition that the employee is still within the employ of the company, has a fair value of P18.
The company has experienced a stable 25% increase in revenues for the past 5 years and reasonably expects
the same trend for the upcoming years.

PROBLEM 3:
On January 1, 2011, ABC Corporation issued 300 share options to 10 of its key employees that will vest once
its share price equals P90. The employee is required to be employed with the company at the time the
condition is met in order to receive the options. The share options will expire in 5 years. On the grant date, it is
expected that the condition will be satisfied in 3 years.
The company applies binomial options pricing model, which takes into account the possibility that the share will
equal/exceed P90 in 3 years (hence the share options become exercisable) and the possibility that the share
price will not equal/exceed P90 in 3 years (hence the option will be forfeited). The company estimates that the
market value of the stock option on the date of grant with this market condition is P25 per option.
The corresponding share price at the end of each year and the corresponding estimated number of employees
expected to leave the company at the end of each year are as follows:
