Explanation

Completed and transferred (79,000 * 100%)     79,000

Ending Work in Process

Direct materials (14,000*60%)                             8,400

Equivalent units                                                   87,400

Costs of beginning inventory                               $58,800

Costs incurred this period                                    $186,900

Total costs                                                             $245,700

Cost per equivalent unit = Total costs / Equivalent units

Cost per equivalent unit = $245,700 / 87,400

Cost per equivalent unit = 2.811212814645309

Cost per equivalent unit = $2.81
