Answer 1

Answer:

Instructions are listed below

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Estimated:

Overhead $160,000

Direct labor hours 80,000

Han uses normal costing and applies overhead based on direct labor hours.

For January, direct labor hours were 8,150.

By the end of the year, Han showed the following actual amounts:

Overhead $166,000

Direct labor hours 79,600

Assume that the unadjusted Cost of Goods Sold for Han was $176,000.

1) Predetermined overhead rate= total estimated overhead for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined overhead rate=160000/80000= $2 per hour

2) Applied overhead (January)= Predetermined overhead rate*actual hours= 2*8150= $16,300

3) Applied overhead for the year= 2*79600= $159,200

Over/under applied= actual overhead - applied overhead= 166000 - 159200= 6800 underapplied

4) COGS= 176000

Underapplied overhead= 6800

COGS adjusted= $182,800
