False.
Explanation:
Accounting systems that use standards for product costs are standard cost systems.
In Financial accounting, various business firms or companies use the standard cost systems to determine the variances or differences between the actual (real) cost of goods produced and the estimated cost for the goods that were produced by the company.
Hence, standard cost systems are used by business firms or companies as a strategic tool or technique for the management and control of costs, budget planning, and analyzing cost management performance at a specific period of time.

Answer:
Net income = $76,000
Earning per share (EPS):
Income from continuing operations per share = $4.40 per share
Loss from discontinued operations per share = -$3.64 per share
Net Income per share = $0.76 per share
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the income statement.
Also Note: Two years (2016 and 2018) were mistakenly mentioned in the question instead of just one of them. I therefore picked 2016 to prepare the income statement.
In the attached excel file, the earning per share (EPS) is calculated as follows:
Number of shares outstanding = 100,000 shares
Income from continuing operations per share = Income from continuing operations / Number of shares outstanding = $440,000 / 100,000 = $4.40 per share
Loss from discontinued operations per share = Loss from discontinued operations / Number of shares outstanding = -$364,000 / 100,000 = -$3.64 per share
Net Income per share = Net Income / Number of shares outstanding = $76,000 / 100,000 = $0.76 per share
