Explanation / Answer

Solution 1 :

Overhead Cost Indirect Raw Material $ 8,000.00

Indirect Labor $ 18,000.00

Factory Utilities $ 14,600.00

Depreciation $ 21,000.00

Insurance Cost $ 2,400.00

Total actual overheads cost $ 64,000.00

Applied Overheads = 150% of Direct Labor Cost = 150% * $40000 = $60000

Under Applied Overheads = $64000 - $60000 = $4000

Solution 2 :

Income Statement Sale $ 200,000.00 Less: Cost of goods sold before under applied adjustment $ (120,000.00) Less: Adjustment for under applied overheads Gross Profit $ 76,000.00 Less: Operating Expenses (non-manufacturing expenses) Selling, General and administrative Sales commission $ (10,000.00) Miscellaneous selling and administrative $ (18,000.00) Depreciation $ (7,000.00) Administrative salaries $ (25,000.00) Operating profits $ 16,000.00
