Accounting

On October 15,2023, the board of directors of Martinez Materials Corporation approved a stock option plan for key executives. On January 1,2024,30 million stock options were granted, exercisable for 30 million shares of Martinez's $1 par common stock.
The options are exercisable between January 1,2027, and December 31,2029, at 80% of the quoted market price on January 1.2024, which was $15.
The fair value of the 30 million options, estimated by an appropriate option pricing model, is $5 per option.
Martinez chooses the option to recognize forfeitures only when they occur.
Ten percent (3 million) of the options were forfeited when an executive resigned in 2025.
All other options were exercised on July 12,2028, when the stock's price jumped unexpectedly to $33 per share.
Required:
When is Martinez's stock option measurement date?

Prepare the journal entries to reflect the effect of forfeiture of the stock options on Martinez's financial statements for 2025 and 2026.
