it can be treated 3 different Way as follows
1. carry forward next year of over and under absorption overhead
2. it is transfer to costing P\ L
3. adjusted supplementary rate on output------ in this method supplementary rate adj on sale unit , transfer to P\L DR and closing stock ,for determine future rate.
The absorbed overhead is part of the production cost of the cost units and therefore it is debited to the work-in-progress control account together with the direct materials, direct labour and any direct expenses incurred, to give the total production cost for the period. The credit entry is the production overhead control account which will have been debited with the actual overhead incuured. Any balance on the production overhead control account is the transfer to the income statement as under or over-absorbed overhead.
Difference between actual overhead and applied overhead is as follows: Difference = 33451 - 32000 = 1450 Difference of variance will be charged to income statement.
One way is to adjust the COGS ( cost of goods sold). If overhead is under allocated add the difference to COGS, if it is over allocated subtract it from COGS.
The Actual overhead is calculated throughout the Production cycle for indirect cost associated to the production and the overhead costs applied is based on the fixed rate assigned against the machine or labour hours to be calculated for the difference b/w two are called under or over applied.
It should go under the factory over head.
Over or Under AbsorptionNote that as long as planned level of activity and the actual level of activity is not the same there is always an Over or Under Absorption situationThis is because overhead absorption rate is set at the start of the period based upon an expected level of production and that during the period, the level of output and or overheads will be different from the planned overheads and or output.OVER-absorption occurs when the total overhead recovered or absorbed is GREATER than the actual level of overheads for the period.UNDER-absorption occurs when the total overheads recovered or absorbed is LESS than the actual overheads incurred in the period.
Over or Under AbsorptionNote that as long as planned level of activity and the actual level of activity is not the same there is always an Over or Under Absorption situationThis is because overhead absorption rate is set at the start of the period based upon an expected level of production and that during the period, the level of output and or overheads will be different from the planned overheads and or output.OVER-absorption occurs when the total overhead recovered or absorbed is GREATER than the actual level of overheads for the period.UNDER-absorption occurs when the total overheads recovered or absorbed is LESS than the actual overheads incurred in the period.
The antonym for overhead is under
how do you calculate the amount of the over-or under applied factory overhead?
The absorbed overhead is part of the production cost of the cost units and therefore it is debited to the work-in-progress control account together with the direct materials, direct labour and any direct expenses incurred, to give the total production cost for the period. The credit entry is the production overhead control account which will have been debited with the actual overhead incuured. Any balance on the production overhead control account is the transfer to the income statement as under or over-absorbed overhead.
It's because the POHR is only an estimate. Both the cost driver and the estimated total manufacturing overhead costs in the ratio are based on past figures. You don't know what it will actually be for the year until the actual costs come in when the year is over. Obviously, the estimate won't exactly equal the actual. When it is over or under applied you must do a correcting journal entry. If overhead were over applied by 30,000 for example, you would debit Manufacturing overhead for the amount and credit COGS
Difference between actual overhead and applied overhead is as follows: Difference = 33451 - 32000 = 1450 Difference of variance will be charged to income statement.

One way is to adjust the COGS ( cost of goods sold). If overhead is under allocated add the difference to COGS, if it is over allocated subtract it from COGS.
