    1. Hi, saw you had the same question I did about cost of goods sold. Not sure if you still need it but I figured out the answer (after 4 hours ugh!!!) not sure its the right way to figure it but I took the cost of goods sold from the journal entry h. 351,000 and added the underapplied overhead from j. 12,500 and I got 363,500. I applied the same formula on my assignment and got it right.

  4. Where did the cost of goods sold come from? Should be Beg. finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - end finished goods inventory... but its not adding up...
