    a) $20,000

    Explanation:

    Hi, if Beverly exercises the option, that means that she bought the shares for $150 each, that is 200 shares * $150/share = $30,000. After that, in September 20, xx15, she sells the stocks for $250/share, which is 200 shares*$250 = $50,000.

    So the gross income that Beverly recognizes in year xx15 is $50,000-$30,000 = $20,000 which is a)

    Best of luck.
