$55,000

Explanation:

Pleat's value of investment account at acquisition date: $344,000 (80%)

since the non-controlling interest has the remaining 20% of the stocks, and its book value = $200,000 + $80,000 + $150,000 = $430,000 x 20% = $86,000

since Stitch assigned $11,000 of income to the non-controlling interest, then it must have assigned $11,000 x 4 = $44,000 to Pleat

Stitch's total income = $11,000 (non-controlling) + $44,000 (Pleat) = $55,000

The correct answer is option (d) $55,000
