Answer:

$37,700

Explanation:

Ending balance in WIP = 13,500 + 41,000 + 58,000 + 32,800 - 86,000

Ending balance in WIP = $59,300

Direct material charged to Job #23 = $59,300 - $12,000 - ($12,000*80%)

Direct material charged to Job #23 = $59,300 - $12,000 - $9,600

Direct material charged to Job #23 = $37,700
