Answer:

Work-in-process  $700 (debit)

Finished goods $1,750 (debit)

Cost of goods sold  $4,550 (debit)

Overheads $7,000 (credit)

Explanation:

Southern Rim Parts estimated/ applied overheads are $416,000 and the actual overheads are $409,000.

Conditions :

If Applied Overheads > Actual Overheads, we have an over-applied situation

and

If Applied Overheads < Actual Overheads, we have an under-applied situation

Therefore,

Using the information of Southern Rim Parts, we have an over- applied situation of $7,000 ($416,000 - $409,000).

Allocation of the over- applied overheads of $7,000

Inventory/Category                 Total            Percentage           Allocation

Work-in-process inventory   $ 33,440               10%                         $700
