Testor Products uses a job-order costing system with a predetermined overhead rate based on machine-hours. The company closes out any underapplied or overapplied overhead to Cost of Goods Sold.Required:If overhead is overapplied, what adjustment does the company make to Cost of Goods Sold? Is Cost of Goods Sold increased or decreased? Why?

If overhead is overapplied, too much overhead has been applied to inventories and they are therefore overcosted. Since these excess costs flow through to Cost of Goods Sold when finished goods are sold, it is necessary to reduce Cost of Goods Sold in order to eliminate this overstatement of costs.
