    B 185,000

    Explanation:

    Equivalent Units of Production

    =Work-in-process December 1 (20,000 * 50% = 10,000) + Units started (170,000) + Work-in-process, December 31 (10,000 * 50% = 5,000)

    Equivalent Units of Production for conversion costs = 10,000 + 170,000 + 5000

    Equivalent Units of Production for conversion costs for December = 185,000

    As FIFO Method of inventory is used first the beginning WIP is completed then units started and at the ending WIP.
