    a. $200

    Explanation:

    For computing the overhead cost, first, we have to compute the predetermined overhead rate which is shown below:

    Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) : (estimated direct labor-hours)

    = $60,000 : 15,000 hours

    = $4

    Now the actual overhead cost equal to

    = Actual direct labor-hours * predetermined overhead rate

    = 50 hours * $4

    = $200
