Answer 1

$78,090

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution of ending balance is provided below:-

Ending balance = Beginning balance + Direct material + Direct labor + Manufacturing overhead - Transfer to finished goods inventory

= $66,000 + $66,000 + $187,000 + ($187,000 × 60%) - $353,110

= $66,000 + $66,000 + $187,000 + $112,200 - $353,110

= $431,200 - $353,110

= $78,090

Therefore, we have calculated ending balance by using the above formula.
