Answer:

c) $187,298 underapplied

Explanation:

The computation of the overhead or underapplied overhead is shown below:

But before that the predetermined overhead, applied manufacturing overhead need to be computed

Predetermine overhead rate is

= Estimated factory overhead ÷ estimated machine hours

= $2,100,000 ÷ 51,000

= $41.18

Now the applied overhead is

= Actual machine hours × predetermined overhead rate

= 48,900 × $41.18

= $2,013,702

As, applied overhead is less than actual overhead

So, the Underapplied overhead is

= $2,201,000  - $2,013,702

= $187,298
