    Equivalent units of production for the year will be 3320

    So option (b) will be correct answer

    Explanation:

    We have given beginning inventory = 200 units

    Total unit started during the year = 3200 units

    Ending inventory = 400 units

    Calculation of units transferred during the year = Beginning inventory + Total units started during the year - Ending inventory

    = 200 + 3200 - 400

    = 3000 units

    Calculation of Equivalent units of production for the year = Unit transferred + closing inventory * percentage of completion = 3000 + 0.8 * 400 = 3000 + 320 = 3320 units

    So option (b) will be correct answer
