- A manufacturing company applies factory overhead based on direct labor hours. At the beginning of the year, it estimated that total factory overhead costs would be $466,920 and direct labor hours would be 46,692. Actual factory overhead costs incurred were $496,253, and actual direct labor hours were 51,693. What is the amount of overapplied or underapplied manufacturing overhead at the end of the year?
