In most organisations:
absorbed over head is debited to WIP and credited to Production Overhead with the under/over absorbed either debited/credited to the Under/Over Absorbed Overhead Account. At the end of the accounting period the balance would then be debited/credited to the P&L.
So if you do not use an Under/Over Absorbed Overhead Account, then the entries would go straight to the P&L.
In other words both your book and your teacher are rightSandy
