Answer:

a. 175%

b.

<u>Journal Entry  to apply factory overhead to production for February.</u>

Work In Process $280,000 (debit)

Overheads $280,000 (credit)

c. $3,900

d. Under-applied Overheads

Explanation:

<em>Predetermined Overhead rate = Total Budgeted Overheads /Total Budgeted Activity</em>

                                                   = $3,150,000 / $1,800,000

                                                   = $1.75 per direct labor cost.  or

                                                   = 175% (1.75 × 100)

<em>Applied factory overhead = Predetermined Overhead rate × Actual Activity</em>

                                           = $160,000 × 175 %

                                           = $280,000

<u>Journal Entry  to apply factory overhead to production for February.</u>

Work In Process $280,000 (debit)

Overheads $280,000 (credit)

<u>over-applied or under-applied factory overhead</u>

<em>Over-applied Overheads = Actual Overheads < Applied Overheads</em>

<em>Under-applied Overheads = Actual Overheads > Applied Overheads</em>

Actual Overheads (given) = $283,900

Applied Overheads = $280,000

Actual Overheads: $283,900 > Applied Overheads :$280,000

Thus we have an Under-application situation of $3,900 ($283,900 - $280,000)

Why might you complete a 1040 instead of a 1040EZ?
diamong [38]

I believe the answer is: A) You own a home.

The 1040EZ is created to favour a more bare-bones return (for people who had no dependants i.e wife&kids and generally make under $ 100,000 a year).  1040 on the other hand, is a form that created to favour someone who typicall make more than $ 100,000 and own properties
