3. $450,000

Explanation:

The total manufacturing costs fo the Simpson company can be calculated using the following mentioned equation:

Total manufacturing costs=Direct material cost+Direct labour cost+Manufacturing overheads

In the given question

Direct material cost=$150,000

Direct labour cost=Manufacturing overheads/200%

=$200,000/200%

=$100,000

manufacturing overheads=$200,000

Total manufacturing costs=$150,000+$100,000+$200,000

=$450,000

So based on the above calculations, the answer is 3. $450,000
