Amount

To Balance b/d

By Work in Process Inventory

$315,000

To Material Inventory

$92,700

To Wages Payable

$38,000

To Heat, Power, Water Expenses

$67,000

To Prepaid Insurance

$24,000

To Accumulated Depreciation

$60,000

By Balance c/d

-$33,300

$315,000

$315,000

Material inventory = $309,000 x 30% = $92,700

Prepaid expenses = $30,000 x 80% = $24,000

Accumulated depreciation = $80,000 x 75% = $60,000

Work in process inventory = $183,750/35,000 x 60,000 hours = $5.25 x 60,000 hours = $315,000

Underapplied overhead is $33,300.
