Therefore, the debit balance in the manufacturing overhead account is referred to as underapplied overhead. Overapplied overhead: When there is a credit balance in the manufacturing overhead account during the month end, indicates that overheads applied to jobs is more than the actual overhead cost incurred by the business. Therefore, the credit balance in the manufacturing overhead account is referred to as overapplied overhead.
