    C : Beta, $36,000; Delta, $54,000; Gamma, $90,000

    Explanation:

    For computing the overhead assigned to each product, first, we have to compute the cost for each purchase order which is shown below:

    Cost for each purchase order = (Total allocated overhead) : (total number of orders)

    = ($180,000 : 2,000 orders)

    = $90

    Now we can compute easily

    For Beta = Purchase orders * cost for each purchase order

    = 400 orders * $90

    = $36,000

    For Delta = Purchase orders * cost for each purchase order

    = 600 orders * $90

    = $54,000

    And, for Gamma = Purchase orders * cost for each purchase order

    = 1,000 orders * $90

    = $90,000
