Armour, inc., an advertising agency, applies overhead to jobs on the basis of direct professional labor hours. overhead was estimated to be $150,000, direct professional labor hours were estimated to be 15,000, and direct professional labor cost was projected to be $225,000. during the year, armour incurred actual overhead costs of $146,000, actual direct professional labor hours of 14,500, and actual direct labor cost of $222,000. by year-end, the firm's overhead was:

The firm's overhead was $1,000 under-applied

Explanation:

For computing the firm overhead amount, first, we have to compute the predetermined overhead rate. The formula is shown below:

Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated direct labor-hours)

= $150,000 ÷ 15,000 hours

= $10

Now we have to find the actual overhead which equal to

= Actual direct labor-hours × predetermined overhead rate

= 14,500 hours × $10

= $145,000

So, the firm overhead equals to

= Actual manufacturing overhead - actual overhead

= $146,000 - $145,000

= $1,000 under-applied
