Answer:

b. $825

Explanation:

Gerstein Corporation uses a job-order costing system with a single plantwide predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours

Then fixed operating overhead = total fixed manufacturing overhead cost divided by  direct labor-hours

= $90,000/50,000 = $1.8 per labor

The company recently completed Job M800 which required 150 direct labor-hours.

Total overhead = fixed cost + variable cost = ($1.8 + $3.7) * 150 = $825
