Answer:

$234,000

Explanation:

Cost of goods sold = Opening Finished Goods Inventory + cost of goods manufactured - Closing Finished Goods Inventory

                                = $49,000 + $226,000 - $45,000 = $230,000

Under - applied overheads = Actual Overheads - Applied Overheads

                                              = $74,000 - $70,000 = $4,000

Adjusted Cost of goods sold = $230,000 + $4,000 = $234,000

The adjusted cost of goods sold that would appear on the income statement for November is $234,000.
