Estimated manufacturing overhead costs                                            $250,000
Divided by: Estimated total direct labor hours                                        5,250
Predetermined overhead allocation rate per direct labor hour           $47.6
Actual direct labor hours                                                                              4,800

Manufacturing overhead costs allocated ($47.6 × 4,800 hrs.) (A)   = $228,571

Actual manufacturing overhead costs incurred (B)              $242,000
Manufacturing overhead costs underallocated (A - B)      = $13,429
Unadjusted balance in manufacturing overhead account         $13,000
