    Direct material cost = $112,000

    Explanation:

    Pre-determined overhead absorption rate rate = Estimated overhead for the period / estimated direct material cost

    Pre-determined overhead absorption rate rate (OAR = 75% of direct material cost

    Applied overhead = OAR * direct material cost

    Applied overhead = 75% * direct material cost

    Let direct material cost be represented by y

    84,000 = 75% * y

    y = 84,000/75% = 112000

    Direct material cost = $112,000
