Answer:

The amount of overhead applied to Job M759 is closest to: $516

Explanation:

Applied overheads = Predetermined overhead rate × Actual Activity

Where,

Predetermined overhead rate = Budgeted Fixed Overheads ÷ Budgeted Activity

therefore,

Predetermined overhead rate = $344,000 ÷ 40,000 machine hours

                                                  = $8.60 per machine hour

Applied overheads (Job M759) =  $8.60 × 60 machine-hours

                                                    =  $516
