Sagot :

Answer:

A. $130,000.

Explanation:

To get the beginning work in progress

= Cost of Manufactured goods + Ending Work - cost of manufacturing during the time period

Manufacturing costs is gotten by;

Dm + DL +MO

DL = direct labor

Dm = direct manufacturing

MO = manufacturing overhead

= 80000 + 140000 + 240000

= $460000

Then we are to get beginning work

= 520000+70000-460000

= $130,000
