Answer:

$23,000

Explanation:

Overhead application rate is the rate at which manufacturing overheads are applied to a product / project / department. It  is calculated by dividing the Budgeted overhead by the budgeted level of activity on which the overhead is applied.

Overhead application rate = Budgeted overhead / Budgeted activity

Overhead application rate = Budgeted overhead / Budgeted labor hours

Overhead application rate = $95,000 / 9500 direct labor hours

Overhead application rate = $10 per direct labor hour

Assigned Overhead =  Overhead application rate x Actual Number of machine hours consumed = $10 x 2300 = $23,000
