128,000 units

Explanation:

The calculation of the equivalent units of production using the weighted average method is given below:

= Total units of finished goods * completion percentage + ending work in process units * completion percentage

= 107,000 units * 100% + 42,000 units * 50%

= 107,000 units + 21,000 units

= 128,000 units

Hence, the equivalent units of production of direct labor is 128,000 units.
