Applied OH= $50000*150(predetermined OH rate)
Applied OH= $750000
Predertimined OH rate= $690000/46000

Actual OH= Indirect materials $170,000+Indirect labor 230,000+Utilities 120,000+Insurance 100,000+Rent 80,000
Actual OH= $700000

Over-applied/Under-applied OH= $700000 Actual OH - $750000 Applied OH
Over-applied OH= $50000
