    First of all, the predetermined overhead will be calculated.

    Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated manufacturing overhead / Estimated direct labor hour

    Predetermined overhead rate = $ 258,000 : 15,000 hours = $ 17.20 per direct labor hour

    Actual manufacturing overheads = $ 253,000

    Applied manufacturing overheads = Predetermined overhead rate * Actual direct labor hours

    Applied manufacturing overheads = $ 17.20 * 13,100 = 225,320

    Applied manufacturing overheads are less than actual manufacturing overheads, thus overheads are under applied.

    Actual manufacturing overheads - Applied manufacturing overheads = $ 27,680 under applied
