Which of the following is correct with respect to closing out overapplied manufacturing overhead to Cost of Goods Sold versus closing it out to Work-in-Process Inventory, Finished Goods Inventory, and Cost of Goods Sold? A. The balance in the Work-in-Process account after allocation will be higher if the overapplied overhead is closed out by allocating it to all appropriate accounts. B. The balance in the Work-in-Process account after allocation will be the same under either method. C. Operating income will be higher if all of the overapplied overhead is closed out to Cost of Goods Sold. D. Cost of Goods Sold will be lower if the overapplied overhead is closed out by allocating it to the inventory accounts as well as to Cost of Goods Sold.

C. Operating income will be higher if all of the overapplied overhead is closed out to Cost of Goods Sold. Closing an overapplied overhead balance to Cost of Goods Sold (even if prorated) will cause operating income to be higher.

Before prorating the manufacturing overhead costs at the end of 2020, the Cost of Goods Sold and Finished Goods Inventory accounts had applied overhead costs of $57,500 and $20,000 in them, respectively. There was no Work-in-Process at the beginning or end of 2020. During the year, manufacturing overhead costs of $74,000 were actually incurred. The balance in the Applied Manufacturing Overhead was $77,500 at the end of 2020. If the under- or overapplied overhead is prorated between Cost of Goods Sold and the inventory accounts, what will be the Cost of Goods Sold balance after the proration? (rounded to the nearest whole dollar) A. $58,403. B. $56,597. C. $60,197. D. $54,903.

D. $54,903. $77,500 - $74,000 = $3,500 overapplied overhead; ($57,500/$77,500) × $3,500 = $2,597; $57,500 - $2,597 = $54,903.

Actual costing does not use a predetermined overhead rate to apply manufacturing overhead costs to jobs completed during the period. T/F

True The application rate is based on the actual overhead incurred during the period and an actual allocation base.
