    A. Close the $2,500 to Cost of Goods Sold.

    Explanation:

    The journal entry to record the under applied overhead is shown below:

    Cost of goods sold A/c Dr $2,500

    To Manufacturing overhead A/c $2,500

    (Being the under-applied overhead is recorded)

    Since we have to record the under-applied, we debited the cost of goods sold account and credited the manufacturing overhead account

    So, we close the cost of goods sold for $2,500
