Answer :

Answer:

A. overallocated by​ $6,500

Explanation:

Indirect labor ​13,000

Plant facility rent ​30,000

Depreciation on plant machinery and equipment ​22,500

Total overhead: 65,500

applied overhead: $18 x 4000 hours = 72,000

we now compare both, the applied and actual:

72,000 > 65,500

As the applied is greater we overapplied we capitalized cost that didn't occur we must decrease the overhead.

72,000 - 65,500 = 6,500 overallocated
