The ending work in process inventory balance is $207,575

Explanation:

The computation of the ending work in progress inventory is shown below:

= Beginning work in progress inventory + direct material + direct labor incurred + manufacturing overhead - Cost of goods manufactured

= $61,800 + $151,000 + $125,500 + $156,875 - $287,600

= $207,575

The manufacturing overhead is computed by

= Direct labor incurred * Predetermined Manufacturing overhead rate

= $125,500 * 125%

= $156,875
