    Total Overhead 54,570

    Explanation:

    We are asked for overhead, so the rest ofthe data is irrelevant.

    We multiply the variable overhead by the units produced This will be the variable cost.

    8,500 * 1.7 = 14,450 Variable Overhead Cost

    Then we are given with 11,800 the fixed cost per unit, we are interest in total, so we multiply to get the total fixed cost, the unit fixed cost is not relevant to sovle the question

    11,800 * 3,40 = 40,120 Fixed Overhead Cost

    Finally we add both fugres to get the answer

    Total Overhead 54,570
