    A.$13,000

    Explanation:

    The computation of ending balance is shown below:-

    Factory overhead = $24,000 * 50%

    = $12,000

    Total cost = Direct material + Direct labor + Factory overhead + Current period cost + Opening work in progress

    = $76,000 + $24,000 + $12,000 + $10,000

    = $122,000

    Ending work in progress = Total cost - Cost of units transferred

    = $122,000 - $109,000

    = $13,000
