    Cost per EUP Materials: $2,05

    Explanation:

    Units Materials Conversion

    Beginning WIP: 25,000 25,000 (100%) 13,750 (55%)

    Units Transferred Out: 135,000 135,000 135,000

    Ending WIP: 30,000 30,000 (100%) 9,000 (30%)

    Equivalent Units of Production (FIFO) : Units Transferred Out + Equivalent Units in ending WIP - Equivalent Units in Beginning WIP

    EUP Materials: 135,000 + 30,000 - 25,000 = 140,000

    Cost per Equivalent Unit (FIFO) : Total Cost Incurred in the Period / Equivalent Units of Production

    Cost per EUP Materials: 287,000 / 140,000 = $2,05
