    The correct answer is B.

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    The manufacturing of clear glasses takes 45,000 direct labor hours. The traditional method applies $560,000 of overhead based on direct labor hours.

    We need to calculate the manufacturing overhead rate:

    Estimated manufacturing overhead rate = total estimated overhead costs for the period / total amount of allocation base

    Estimated manufacturing overhead rate = 560,000 / (45,000 + 115,000) = $3.5 per direct labor hour

    Now, we can allocate the overhead to clear glasses:

    Allocated MOH = Estimated manufacturing overhead rate * Actual amount of allocation base

    Allocated MOH = 3.5*45,000 = $157,500
