Answer:

$192,880

Explanation:

We need to determine the balances for each of the items.

Work in process =(5,000/225,000*100) × 8,000

= 2.2% × 8,000

= 176

Finished goods = (20,000/225,000 *100) × 8,000

= 8.9% × 8,000

= 712

Cost of goods sold = (200,000/225,000 *100) × 8,000

= 88.9% × 8,000

= 7,120

Therefore, the revised ending balance for COGS would be ;

= 200,000 - 7,120

= $192,880
