    The adjusting entries should be:

    December 31, adjusting entry Shimeca Company

    Dr Cost of goods sold 2,150

    Cr Manufacturing overhead costs 2,150

    December 31, adjusting entry Garcia Company

    Dr Manufacturing overhead costs 997

    Cr Cost of goods sold 997

    Both accounts (manufacturing overhead and cogs) are expense accounts that have debit balances, but manufacturing overhead is included under cogs and has to be closed against it at the end of the year.

    COGS 1,153 debit

    MO 1,153 credit

    Explanation:

    The manufacturing overhead debit represent the actual overhead

    while the credit represent the applied overhead for the firm and charged into their product already.

    At the end of the period, we adjust to match the applied against the actual overhead.

    As we apply 997 while the actual cost was 2,150 we underapplied we must charge more cost to our product.

    We credit the manufacturing overhead and post that cost against cost of good sold.

    2,150 - 997 = 1,153
