    it wll apply 335 dollars of overhead

    Explanation:

    Assembly rate: 45 dollars per machine hour

    Sanding rate 15 dollars per labor hour

    On assembly we will only follow the machien hours to apply the overhead rate

    On sanding we will apply based on labor hours on that department, we will ignore the rest.

    Job 603

    Machine hours on Assembly: 4 x 45 = 170

    Labor hours on Sandings: 11 labor hours x 15 = 165

    applied overhead using the deparmental overhead rate: 335
