    E. 56,000

    Explanation:

    complete and transferred 50,000

    ending inventory 10,000 x 3/5 = 6,000

    Equivalent units using weighted average: 56,000

    Under W-A we calculate the equivalent units by the sum of transferred and ending WIP we do o difference between beginning units and started and complete. We work with trasnferred units only.

    That's because later the cost are weighted.
