(b) Possible causes of over / under applied overheads
➢ The budgeted overhead application rates were incorrectly predetermined;
➢ The total actual overheads are more or less than what was budgeted for;
➢ The activity in the basis used for allocation (the denominator) is higher or lower
than estimated.

Calculations
1. Production units of project Garnet = (4 000 − 1 125) = 2 875 𝑢𝑛i𝑡𝑠
2. Closing inventory units = (160 + 2 875 − 2 375) = 660
660
Closing inventory = ( * 3 622 500 000)
2 875
= 831 600 000
(d) Increase in the sale of apartments
i) Remain constant
ii) Remain constant
iii) Increase
