Answer:

B. Manufacturing overhead was overapplied by $20,000; Cost of goods sold after closing the manufacturing overhead account is $431,000.

Explanation:

Manufacturing overhead refers to the factors or conditions that keeps a facotry running. These include electricity, deprecaition on factory, etc.

In the case of the queetion above, the manufacturing overhead has been over applied by $20,000 (i.e: $73,000 - $53,000). This over application of the manufacturing overhead has also affected the cost of goods sold after closing out the manufacturing overhead account

Since the overapplied amount is $20,000, we deduct the overapplied amount from the cost of sales ($471,000) to get the actual costs of goods sold after closing out the manufacturing overhead account.

We then have ($451,000 - $20,000) = $431,000.

Therefore, the cost of goods sold after closing the manufacturing overhead account is $431,000.

Cheers.
