Moira Company has just finished its first year of operations and must decide which method to use for adjusting cost of goods sold. Because the company used a budgeted indirect-cost rate for its manufacturing operations, the amount of manufacturing overhead applied was $435,000 and actual amount of manufacturing overhead incurred was $425,000.

Ending balances in the relevant accounts were:

Finished Goods 80,000
