    The correct answer is A.

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Job No. 265 incurred $35,500 on direct labor costs. Manufacturing overhead is allocated at 130% of direct labor cost. The actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred in June amounted to $41,300.

    First, we need to calculate the manufacturing overhead allocated:

    Allocated MOH = Estimated manufacturing overhead rate * Actual amount of allocation base

    Allocated MOH = 1.30*35,500 = $46,150

    Now, we can calculate the under/over allocation:

    Over/under allocation = real MOH - allocated MOH = 41,300 - 46,150 = 4,850 overallocated
