Explanation:

Cost of goods manufactured = Cost of goods available for sale - Beginning Finished goods

Cost of goods manufactured = 950000 - 115000

Cost of goods manufactured = $835,000

Total manufacturing Costs = Cost of goods manufactured + Ending Work in process - Beginning Work in process

Total manufacturing Costs = 835000 + 42000 - 66000

Total manufacturing Costs = $811,000

Direct Materials used = 77000 + 324000 - 40000

Direct Materials used = $361,000

Direct Materials used + Direct Labor + Factory Overhead applied = Total Manufacturing costs

361000 + Direct labor + 125% of Direct labor = 811000

225% of Direct labor = $811000 - $361000

225% of Direct labor = $450000

Direct labor = $450000 / 225%

Direct labor = $200,000

Factory Overhead applied = $200,000*125%

Factory Overhead applied = $250,000

Underapplied Overhead = Actual Overhead - Applied Overhead

Underapplied Overhead = $260000 - $250000

Underapplied Overhead = $10,000 (underapplied)
