IIRC it is on the individual resource base, i.e. M x 1.5, O x 1.5 and R x 1.5.
Negatory, good buddy. I have tested this and it has also been confirmed by others. Add up your total resources M+O+R (before & after) and that's the number you use for the 150% rule. I used to think the same thing.

From another thread:

Note that the costs are combined!
1000 minerals +400 organics +100 rads is 150% the cost of a 0 minerals, 0 organics, 1000 rads cost design, and CAN be retrofitted to! ...
