    16,800 units and 16,500 units

    Explanation:

    The computation of the number of equivalent units of production is shown below:

    For Materials:

    = Transferred units * Completion percentage + ending work in process units * completion percentage

    = 14,800 units * 100% + 2,000 units * 100%

    = 14,800 units + 2,000 units

    = 16,800 units

    For Conversion cost:

    = Opening work in process units * remaining percentage + Transferred units * Completion percentage + ending work in process units * completion percentage

    = 1,200 units * 75% + 14,800 units + 2,000 units * 40%

    = 900 units + 14,800 units + 800 units

    = 16,500 units

    Transferred units is

    = 16,000 units - 1,200 units

    = 14,800 units
