Answer is option B

Explanation:

Number of Unit Completed = 18000 Unit

Work In Progress Units = 2000

Equivalent Unit = 18000 + 2000 * 30%

Equivalent Unit = 18600 Unit.

Calculation of Direct Labour Cost = Direct Labour Cost / Number of Unit

Calculation of Direct Labour Cost = 142300 / 18600

Calculation of Direct Labour Cost = $7.6505376

Direct Overhead Cost Per Unit = Overhead Cost / No Of Unit

Direct Overhead Cost Per Unit = 57200 / 18600

Direct Overhead Cost Per Unit = $3.075688

Work In Progress Inventory Cost

Material Cost = 2000 * 5

Material Cost = 10000

Labour Cost = 600 * 7.6505376

Labour Cost = 4590.32258

Overhead Cost = 600 * 3.075688

Overhead Cost = 1845.161290

Work In Progress Inventory Cost = 10000 + 4590.32258 + 1845.161290

Work In Progress Inventory Cost = $16436
