Answer:

C) $6.40 per direct labor hour.

Explanation:

The overhead application rate is used to estimate the manufacturing overhead for a specific project or reporting period.

overhead application rate = direct labor cost per hour / (total direct labor costs / total overhead costs)  

overhead application rate = $16 / ($475 / $190) = $16 / $2.50) = $6.40
