9,650 Units

Explanation:

The total unit transfer were 7,900 then we have to add the total units that are in Work in Process, which are + 2.400+10.500-7.900 = 5.000, of that we have an advance of 35% of conversion cost, so we have 1.750 Units, Total Units = 7.900 + 1.750 = 9.650

Conversion

"Units transferred to the next department 7.900

Ending work in process:

Conversion:

Rest Of Units 5.000

Complete to conversion costs End 35% 1.750

Equivalent units of production 9.650
