Popis: The nuclear matrix elements (NMEs) of the neutrinoless and two-neutrino double-$\ensuremath{\beta}$ decays of $^{48}\mathrm{Ca}$ are calculated by the quasiparticle random-phase approximation (QRPA) with emphasis on the consistency examinations of this calculation method. The main new examination points are the consistency of two ways to treat the intermediate-state energies in the two-neutrino double-$\ensuremath{\beta}$ NME and comparison with the experimental charge-exchange strength functions obtained from $^{48}\mathrm{Ca}(p,n)$ and $^{48}\mathrm{Ti}(n,p)$ reactions. No decisive problem preventing use of the QRPA approach is found. The obtained neutrinoless double-$\ensuremath{\beta}$ NME adjusted by the ratio of the effective and bare axial-vector current couplings is lowest in those calculated by different groups and close to one of the QRPA values obtained by another group.
