Answer

Option C i.e. $263,742

Predetermined Overhead Rate = Estimated Manufacturing Overhead Cost / Estimated Machine Hours
Predetermined Overhead Rate = 238,100 / 20,400
Predetermined Overhead Rate = $11.67

Manufacturing Overhead allocated = Predetermined Overhead Rate * Actual Machine Hours
Manufacturing Overhead allocated = $11.67 * 22,600
Manufacturing Overhead allocated = $263,742
