Ops:

A. 262000

 Β. 250000

C. 321000

D. 200000

To calculate the new total budget after a 10% increase:

1. **Find 10% of the original budget**:
   \[
   10\% \text{ of } 120,000 = 0.10 \times 120,000 = 12,000
   \]

2. **Add this increase to the original budget**:
   \[
   120,000 + 12,000 = 132,000
   \]

So, the new total budget is **$132,000**.
