To calculate the total number of units accounted for by the Assembly Department, we can use the following formula:

Beginning inventory + Units transferred in - Units transferred out = Ending inventory

Plugging in the given values, we get:

500 + 2,000 - 1,000 = Ending inventory
2,500 - 1,000 = Ending inventory
1,500 = Ending inventory

Therefore, the total number of units accounted for by the Assembly Department is 2,500 units.
