Answer:

Option 3

Explanation:

Earnings & profits (E&P) is the measure of a corporation’s economic ability to pay dividends to its shareholders. An up-to-date E&P calculation is important for many corporate transactions, including determining whether a distribution to shareholders is a taxable dividend.

The E&P allocated to Andrew's distribution

= 160,000 * 150,000/(350,000+150,000)

= 160,000 * 150,000/500,000

= 48,000

Option C
