5万齐了
totally 50000 confirmed

When someone says 齐了, he confirms the expected total amount or number is satisfied.

Example:
客人都到齐了。
All the guests (that we expected) have arrived.

It simply means “the whole amount of 5 万”

5 万 has been paid in full;
5 万 has been received in full;

You don't owe us anything any more.

Or I don't owe you anything anymore

depending on who is saying it.

It's now 50,000

As you said it's conversation, it should be someone collected 50,000 and said the amount is 50,000 now.

So we should make the translation also conversational.

Ready

The sentence translates to "Is the 50,000 ready?" or "Have you gathered the 50,000?"

It's common to use 齐了 for such phrasing when dealing with gathering/pooling money for something.
Example sentence:

钱都凑齐了。We've pooled enough money.

东西都准备齐了。Everything is ready.
