2. Cost Per Equivalent Units

                                                    Materials         Conversion

Cost Added                               69,660                18,480 + 22,600

                             

Total Costs                                69,660                  41,080

Equivalent Units                       <u> 17,200                    15,800 </u>

Cost per Equivalent Unit             69,660 / 17,200         41,080/ 15,800

Cost of Ending Work In Process  $ 19635

Materials = 3500 * $ 4.05= $ 14175

Conversion = 2100 * $ 2.6=  $ 5460

We multiply the equivalent number of units with the cost per unit to find the cost.

Cost Of Units Transferred Out = $ 91,105

Materials = 13,700 * $ 4.05= $ 55,485

Conversion = 13,700 * $ 2.6 =  $ 35620
