Answer:

A. $1,500,000

Explanation:

The overhead is applied on the basis of the direct labor cost

Overhead allocation rate = $600,000/$400,000 = 1.5 times

Materials used

$750,000

Labor cost

$300,000

Prime cost

$1,050,000

Overhead ( direct labor cost × 1.5) = $300,000 × 1.5 = $450,000

The amount of transferred finished goods from WIP is $1500,000 I.e prime (cost $1,050,000 + overhead $450,000)
