The correct answer is A

Explanation:

Support department is the department which provides support to the other departments so that they could complete their orders. And the budgeted cost to the support department is $150,000 but the actual amount of cost incurred is $200,000.

The aggregate amount which should be allocated to the other department will be $150,000, as it consider the budgeted amount.
