c. Debit: Overhead Control $10,000,000

Credit: Cost of Goods Sold $10,000,000

Explanation:

The journal entry to close the overhead account is presented below:

Overhead Control A/c Dr $10,000,000

To Cost of Goods Sold A/c $10,000,000

(Being the overhead account is closed)

= Applied overhead - actual overhead

where,

Applied overhead equal to

= $450 × 100,000 machine hours

= $45,000,000

And, the actual overhead is $35,000,000

So, the amount would be

= $45,000,000 - $35,000,000

= $10,000,000

Since the applied overhead is greater than the actual overhead, so we debited the overhead control account and credited the cost of goods sold account
