= Beginning WIP + Raw materials used + Labor + Overhead - Ending WIP

= $9,000 + $73,000 + $80,000 + $36,000 - $14,000

= $184,000

= Beginning Finished Goods + Manufacturing Costs - Ending Finished Goods

= $11,000 + $184,000 - $8,000

= $197,000

4. Under- or overapplied overhead

= Total Incurred manufacturing overhead - applied manufacturing overhead

= $33,000 - $36,000
