Utilization Question

In the following example, would both of these cards affect your FICO score in the same way?
 
Charged:  $2000  -  Credit Line - $4000
 
Charged:  $15000 - Credit Line - $30000
 
I realize for utilization it should affect it the same way, but wondering what else would be considered?  Does amount charged play a role as well?  Thanks for the help!

Yes! 50% util is 50% util. The dollar amounts don't matter just the util%.
