Chad Rose · Answer 1

Cost of goods sold = $244,000

Explanation:

We will calculate the manufacturing overhead underapplied or over applied

Manufacturing overhead underapplied = Incurred overhead - Overhead applied

Manufacturing overhead underapplied = 84,000 - 80,000

Manufacturing overhead underapplied = $4,000

Cost of goods sold = Start finished good inventory - Ending finished good inventory + cost of good manufactured + overhead underapplied

Cost of goods sold = 50,000 - 46,000 + 236,000 + 4,000

Cost of goods sold = $244,000
