The $2,245 debit balance in Factory Overhead Control indicates that the actual overhead incurred exceeded the amount applied; that is, overhead was under applied by $2,245.Underapplied overhead is interpreted as an unfavorable cost variance. The significance of an under applied or over applied balance, and the disposition of it, are discussed in Chapter 11. If the balance at year-end is small, it typically is transferred to Cost of Goods Sold at year-end. In the Rayburn Company example, that would be achieved by debating Cost Goods Sold and crediting Factory Overhead Control, each for $2,245.
