    14,000

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Market value per share = 10

    Shares granted = 4,200

    Years of grant = 3

    Total compensation expense = Market value per share * Shares granted

    = 10 * 4,200

    = 42,000

    Compensation expense per year:

    = Total compensation expense : Years of grant

    = 42,000 : 3

    = 14,000
