A. $188,000

Explanation:

We know that

Cost of goods sold = Opening inventory + Purchase - ending inventory

where,

The cost of goods sold is $153,000

And the opening stock and ending stock would be $28,000 and $60,000 respectively

So, the purchase amount would be

$153,000 = $28,000 + Purchase - $60,000

$153,000 = - $32,000 + Purchase

So, the purchase = $185,000

And,

The cash payment to supplier = Beginning Account payable + Purchase - Ending account payable

So, the cash payment would be

= $8,100 + $185,000 - $5,100

= $188,000
