    6,500

    Explanation:

    As per the given question the solution of equivalent units for conversion costs is provided below:-

    To reach the equivalent units of conversion first we need to find out the ending inventory units which is below:-

    Ending inventory units = Beginning units + Started - Units completed

    = 500 + 6,900 - 6,200

    = 7,400 - 6,200

    = 1,200

    Equivalent units of conversion = Units completed + Ending Work in progress

    = (6,200 * 100%) + (1,200 * (100% - 75%))

    = 6,200 + 300

    = 6,500

    So, we have calculated the equivalent units of conversion by using the above formula.
