To calculate the units transferred to Decorating, we need to find the total units completed in the Forming department, which can be calculated as follows:
Units started + Units in process at beginning - Units in process at end = Total units completed
6,500 + 500 - 2,100 = 4,900
Therefore, 4,900 units were transferred to Decorating during the month.
