    Direct materials 147,000 |
    Direct labor 120,000 |

    (c) Was factory overhead overapplied or underapplied on July 31?

    Please do not double post your question, as it just confuses us and takes up more time.

    Also please see the guidelines for posting homework in the red print at the top of this forum. You can't do b through d until a is done. What have you attempted on this?
