Answer: $22,500

Explanation:

First calculate the rate of allocation based on sales to determine how much of Department T's sales should be attributed to Advertising.

The Rate of Allocation based on Sales = Advertising Expense/Total sales

= 50,000/475,000

= 0.105263

= 10.5263%

This 10.5% can then be used to find out how much of Advertising to apportion to Department T based on department sales,

= Department sales * Allocation rate

= 213,750 * 10.5263%

= $22,500

$22,500 should be allocated to Department T.
