    26,500 Under applied

    Explanation:

    Lock-Tite Company

    Actual Factory Overhead 215,000

    Factory overhead Indirect materials 15,000

    Indirect labor 80,000

    Other overhead costs 120,000

    Direct Labor = 345,000

    Predetermined Overhead = 70% of $ 345,000 = $ 241,500

    Actual Overhead = $ 215,000

    Difference = Predetermined Overhead - Actual Overhead

    = 241,500 - $ 215,000 = 26,500 Under applied

    We find the difference between actual overhead and applied overhead to find the underapplied (overapplied overhead. If the actual overhead is less than applied overhead it is underapplied. But if the actual overhead is greater than applied overhead it is over applied.
