    B) $56,750

    Explanation:

    Direct materials cost $27,500

    Direct labor cost$13,000

    As manufacturing overhead rate is based on a percentage of direct labor cost so dividing the manufacturing overheads by direct labor costs we get = $1,050,000,/$840,000 = 1.25

    Multiplying this rate with the actual overheads we get 1.25 * 13000 = $16250

    The total job cost would be = Direct materials cost+Direct labor cost + budgeted Overheads = $27,500 + $13,000+$16250 = $56,750
