Answer: Cost method

Explanation:

The method that Jarmon should use to account for its investment in Kaleski is the cost method.

Since it's a cost method, Kaleski should record the investment in stocks at cost, that is the price that was paid for the stock. In this case, most stocks from the other investors are purchased through the brokers.
