At the end of the year, overhead applied was $42,000,000. Actual overhead was $40,300,000. Closing over/underapplied overhead into Cost of Goods Sold would cause net income to

Hence, closing over  overhead into Cost of Goods Sold would cause net income to increase by $ 1,700,000

Explanation:

Overheads are charged to units produced by the means of using an estimated overhead absorption rate. This rate is computed using budgeted overhead and budgeted activity level.

As a result of this, overhead charged to total units product might be over or under absorbed compared to the actual amount incurred.

Over applied overhead = Applied overhead - Actual overhead

                                     = 42,000,000 - 40,300,00 =  1,700,000

Over applied overhead = $ 1,700,000

The adjustment required is to reduce the cost of gods sold by the amount of over-applied overhead because the cost of goods sold figure is would have over charged.

Hence, closing over  overhead into Cost of Goods Sold would cause net income to increase by $ 1,700,000 because net income and cost of Goods Sold are inversely related.

1   all nations face the problem of scarcity because there are limited resources and unlimited wants. nations do not have enough factors of production to produce everything that their population wants. entrepreneurial resources initiate businesses to make new goods and services; labor resources produce goods and services.

2 there are four factors of production: natural resources, labor resources, capital resources, and entrepreneurial resources. natural resources are raw materials from nature that are used to produce goods. trees, water, and grains are natural resources. some natural resources, such as wheat and cattle, are renewable
