Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Manufacturing overhead includes all manufacturing costs except direct materials and direct labor. Thus, it includes depreciation of factory building and equipment, factory manager's salary, and utility costs for the factory, totaling $10,000 + $50,000 + $50,000 + $50,000 = $160,000.
