    a) Materials = 21240

    b) Conversion Costs = 20532

    Explanation:

    (a) Material.

    For finding equivalent units = Units transferred out totaled + equivalent units = 20060 + 1180 = 21240

    Since, ending work in process was 100% complete

    (b) Conversion Costs

    For finding equivalent units = 20060 + (1180*0.4) = 20532

    Now, the ending work in process is 40% complete

    Here, materials and conversion are calculated separately to get the measure of productions from both perspectives. i. e. materials and conversion.

    Equivalent units are calculated to have estimate of how many product are being prepared in the process and their expected quantity.
