Flexible manufacturing systems can be used for medium production batches,
the Work in Process account
The 3 main types of industrial production are: a continuous flow where thousands of the product are made 24/7, mass production where hundreds are made (usually on a production line) but not 24/7, and a batch where only about 5- 150 of the product is created.

what is factory overhead applied?
There is a variance.
Actual manufacturing overheads cannot be traced until the end of production or fiscal period and companies cannot wait to find out the cost of product that's why applied onverheads are used at start of business and then adjusted for actual overheads at the end of production or fiscal period.
Factory overheads are incurred only and only due to production of the goods. That is why the factory overhead cost is applied to production.

Your question is somewhat confusing. Are you asking which was the first company who applied lean manufacturing technology? Lean Manufacturing solutions was first introduced by Henry Ford. He wanted to keep the production standards very high so that each step falls naturally into the next one, thereby reducing the waste gradually. Then another automobile giant Toyota implemented this process and founded the Toyota Production System, which became one of the most efficient systems in the world.
How the opportunity cost can be applied to the production process for the allocation of resources. How the opportunity cost can be applied to the production process for the allocation of resources.
It means you have incurred more actual manufacturing overhead costs than you have applied to your products (i.e., manufacturing overhead is underapplied).
