    a. $650

    Explanation:

    The computation of amount of overhead is shown below:-

    Total variable manufacturing overhead = per direct labor-hour * direct labor-hours

    = $3.5 * 30,000

    = $105,000

    Total manufacturing overhead = Total variable manufacturing overhead + Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost

    = $105,000 + $90,000

    = $195,000

    Predetermined overhead rate = Total manufacturing overhead : direct labor-hours

    = $195,000 : $30,000

    = $6.5

    Amount of overhead applied to Job A477 = Total direct labor-hours * Predetermined overhead rate

    = 100 * $6.5

    = $650
