    Equivalent units for materials in beginning work process is 6,940 units Equivalent units for conversion in ending work process is 6,800 units

    Explanation:

    Beginning work process:

    Equivalent units for materials = 6,100 + (1,400 * 60%) = 6,940 units Cost per equivalent unit for materials = ($7,800 + $102,700) : 6,940 = 15.92

    Ending work process:

    Equivalent units for conversion = 6,100 + (1400 * 50%) = 6,800 units

    Cost per equivalent unit for materials = ($9,100 + $184,000) : 6800 = 28.40

    Cost of ending work in process = (1,400 * 60%) * 15.92219 + (1400 * 50%) * 28.39706

    = 33,253 (Rounded off)
