Answer

So, Overhead applied to production is $275,472 which is not given in options. May be there is some mistake in options.

Explanation

Computation of Applied Overhead:

Budgeted overhead rate = $267,552/18,580 = $14.40
So, Budgeted Overhead Rate is $14.40 per Machine hour.
 
 
Applied overhead = Budgeted Overhead Rate * Actual Machine Hours
= $14.40*19,130

Applied overhead = $ 275,472
