Explanation:

a. T-accounts are accounting tools used to determine missing figures and to adjust entries in the accounts.

b. Overheads are over-applied when the applied cost is more than the actual cost incurred based on standard rates.  They are under-applied when the applied cost is less than the actual cost incurred.

c. The work-in process balance should be one item, but for the requirement of this question.

its kinda hard to answer this when we dont have all the information that we need.
