Answer:

b. $480,000

Explanation:

With regards to the above information, first we need to calculate the manufacturing overhead rate.

Manufacturing overhead rate = Total estimated manufacturing overhead / Total amount of allocation base

Manufacturing overhead rate = $600,000 / 25,000 = $24

Therefore, allocated manufacturing overhead

= Overhead rate × Actual hours

= $24 × 20,000

= $480,000
