Answer:

Overapplied overhead= $16,000

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate=  340,000 / 170,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $2 per direct labor dollar

Now, we can allocate overhead:

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 2*192,000

Allocated MOH= $384,000

Finally, the over/under allocation:

Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead

Under/over applied overhead= 368,000 - 384,000

Overapplied overhead= $16,000
