  Solution
1. Manufacturing overhead rate = 292552/126100 = 2.32 per machine hour
2. Calculate under or over applied overhead :
Applied overhead = 2.32*130100 = 301832
Actual overhead = 413432
Under applied overhead = 413432-301832 = 111600
3. Adjusting entry :
| Date | accounts & explanation | debit | credit | 
| Cost of goods sold a/c | 111600 | ||
| Manufacturing overhead | 111600 | ||
| (To record underapplied overhead) |
