    Option (B) is correct.

    Explanation:

    100% complete for conversion cost the units that are complete.

    Units that produced during the period:

    = Units sold + Units of finished Ending - Beginning units of Finished

    = 300,000 + 60,000 - 75,000

    = 285,000 units

    And work in process at ending is 24,000 units but for conversion costs is 75% only.

    For conversion Equivalent units:

    = 75% of Ending Work in process + Units that produced during the period

    = 75% * 24,000 + 285,000

    = 18,000+285,000

    = 303,000 units
