    Cost Per Unit Completed = $4.07

    Explanation:

    Materials & Conversion

    Beginning WIP Cost $4,300

    Cost added in the period $109,700

    Total Cost of the Units $114,000

    Equivalent Units of Production (EUP) : Completed Units + Ending WIP Units

    EUP Materials & Conversion = 27,000 + 5,000 x 20% = 28,000

    Cost per Equivalent Unit: Cost of Units / EUP

    Cost per EUP Materials & Conversion: $114,000 / 28,000 = $4.07
