Arena Corporation manufactures one product. It does not maintain any beginning or ending Work in Process inventories. The company uses a standard cost system in which inventories are recorded at their standard costs and any variances are closed directly to Cost of Goods Sold. There is no variable manufacturing overhead.
The standard cost card for the company's only product is as follows:
The standard fixed manufacturing overhead rate was based on budgeted fixed manufacturing overhead of $81,000 and budgeted activity of 18,000 hours.
During the year, the company completed the following transactions:

d. Applied fixed overhead to the 26,900 units in work in process inventory using the predetermined overhead rate multiplied by the number of direct labor-hours allowed. Actual fixed overhead costs for the year were $67,800. Of this total, $3,800 related to items such as insurance, utilities, and indirect labor salaries that were all paid in cash and $64,000 related to depreciation of manufacturing equipment.
