    direct labor = $30000

    Explanation:

    With the following information we need to calculate the direct labor:

    Beginning work-in-progress (BWIP) : $12,000

    Ending work-in-progress (EWIP) : $10,000

    Cost of goods manufactured (COGM) : $97,000

    Direct materials issued to production: $20,000

    Factory overhead is assigned at 150% of direct labor.

    We know that:

    Cost of good manufactured = Beginning work in progress + direct materials of the period + direct labor + manufactured overhead - ending work in progress

    97000=12000 + 20000 + direct labor + 1,5*direct labor - 10000

    direct labor = (97000-12000-20000+10000) / 2,5

    direct labor = 30000

    Manufacturing overhead = 30000*1,5 = 45000

    Comprobation:

    cost of manufactured goods = 12000+20000+30000+45000-10000=97000
