Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The equivalent units of production for materials are calculated by adding the units completed and transferred out to the equivalent units in ending work in process. Since materials are added at the beginning, all units started and completed during the month are considered 100% complete for materials. Therefore, 90,000 units (20,000 beginning + 80,000 transferred in - 10,000 ending) are completed and transferred out, and the 10,000 ending work in process units are also 100% complete for materials, resulting in 100,000 equivalent units for materials.
