what isfactory overhead applied
Factory overhead is what it costs to run the factory. The cost accountant can look at the cost of overhead to find ways to minimize it, resulting in the cost of the product being lower.
factory overhead should be allocated on basis of their apportiomen
Difference between actual overhead and applied overhead is as follows: Difference = 33451 - 32000 = 1450 Difference of variance will be charged to income statement.
We need applied overhead rate to know about the overhead variance. Otherwise how will we know how much overhead expenses should have been incurred and how much is actually incurred? Predetermined rate multiplied by the actual unit level activity is applied overhead

what is factory overhead applied?
Factory overheads are incurred only and only due to production of the goods. That is why the factory overhead cost is applied to production.
how do you calculate the amount of the over-or under applied factory overhead?
Factory overhead is what it costs to run the factory. The cost accountant can look at the cost of overhead to find ways to minimize it, resulting in the cost of the product being lower.
To calculate under or overapplied overhead, subtract the actual overhead costs from the applied overhead costs. If the actual overhead costs exceed the applied overhead costs, it is overapplied. If the applied overhead costs exceed the actual overhead costs, it is underapplied.

Salary of factory manager is Manufacturing overhead. and Manufacturing overhead is Product costs. So, It's not period cost.

There is a variance.
