    (C) $975,000

    Explanation:

    The computation of the overhead applied is shown below:

    = Direct labors hours * rate per direct labor hour

    = 15,000 hours * $65

    = $975,000

    The direct labor is computed below:

    = Total direct labor cost : Average rate per hour

    = $450,000 : $30 per hour

    = 15,000 direct labor hours

    Hence, the correct option is c. $975,000
