Predetermined Overhead Rate, Overhead Variances, Journal Entries

Predetermined Overhead Rate, Overhead Variances, Journal Entries
Craig Company uses a predetermined overhead rate to assign overhead to jobs. Because Craig's production is machine intensive, overhead is applied on the basis of machine hours. The expected overhead for the year was $5,767,000, and the practical level of activity is 395,000 machine hours.
   During the year, Craig used 403,000 machine hours and incurred actual overhead costs of $5,801,800. Craig also had the following balances of applied overhead in its accounts:
Work-in-process inventory $ 568,340
Finished goods inventory
602,880
Cost of goods sold
1,968,780
Required:
1. Compute a predetermined overhead rate for Craig. Round your answer to the nearest cent.
$ per machine hour
2. Compute the overhead variance, and label it as under- or overapplied.
$  overapplied
3. Assuming the overhead variance is immaterial, prepare the journal entry to dispose of the variance at the end of the year.
