    The journal entry to close the books is

    Cost of Goods sold A/c Dr $1,200

    To Manufacturing Overhead A/c $1,200

    (Being the under-applied overhead is recorded)

    Since the jobs were undercosted, that means the overhead is applied under overhead so we debited the cost of goods sold account and credited the manufacturing overhead account. Both the items are recorded for $1,200
