Explanation / Answer

Fixed manufacturing overhead rate = Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost / Total machine hours

= 575700/30300 = 19 per machine hour

Total machine hours in the job = 30

Total fixed manufacturing overhead cost in Job T687 = 30*19 = 570

Variable manufacturing overhead per hour = 4

Total variable manufacturing overhead cost in Job T687 = 30*4 = 120

Total overhead cost applied to Job T687 = 570 + 120 = 690

Answer is $690.00
