    Under applied overhead for the month is $3,272

    Explanation:

    Predetermined Overhead Rate = Estimated factory Overhead / Estimated Machine hours

    Predetermined Overhead Rate = $1,128,900 / 21300

    Predetermined Overhead Rate = $53 per machine hour

    Applied factory overhead = 2,940 x 53

    Applied factory overhead = $155,820

    Under applied overhead = 159,092 - 155,820

    Under applied overhead = $3,272
