Actual factory overhead costs incurred were $508,253, and actual direct labor hours were 52,943. What is the amount of overapplied or underapplied manufacturing overhead at the end of the year

Answer:

$21,177 overapplied

Explanation:

Applied Overheads = Predetermined overhead rate x Actual activity

where,

Predetermined overhead rate = Budgeted Overheads ÷ Budgeted Activity

                                                    = $485,060 ÷ 48,506 hours

                                                    = $10 / direct labor hour

therefore,

Applied Overheads = $10 x 52,943 = $529,430

Since, Applied Overheads ($529,430) > Actual Overheads ($508,253), overheads have been over-applied by $21,177

Conclusion :

The amount of overapplied  manufacturing overhead at the end of the year is $21,177
