Jamie Hardy · Answer 1

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Dale Company,

Overhead at the rate = 190% of direct labor cost

Accumulated direct material = $27,000

Accumulated direct labor = $15,000

Hence,

Total overhead applied:

= 190% of direct labor cost

= 1.9 * $15,000

= $28,500

Therefore, the total overhead applied to job no. 101 amounted to $28,500.
