Answer:

The applied factory overhead cost is $1,875,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Overhead cost = $1,500,000  at activity base of 200,000

We assume that the overhead is directly proportional to the activity base;

The cost per direct labor =  $1,500,000/200,000 = $7.5

Therefore at actual labor hours of 250,000, the factory overhead cost is therefore = $7.5 × 250000 = $1,875,000.
