    B. $53,600

    Explanation:

    beginning 0

    completed 8,000

    WIP 2,000 at 100% materials 50% conversion cost

    Materials

    Equivalent Units units complete + complete portion of ending WIP

    8,000 + 2,000 x 100% = 10,000

    Cost per unit 27,000/10,000 = 2.7

    Conversion cost

    Equivalent Units units complete + complete portion of ending WIP

    8,000 + 2,000 x 50% = 9,000

    Cost per unit 36,000/9,000 = 4

    Total cost per equivalent unit Materials + CC

    2.7 + 4 = 6.7

    Transferred-out

    8,000 x 6.7 = 53,600
