Reina Mcconnell · Answer 1

The correct option is B, 72,100

Explanation:

It is very clear that the manufacturing process is complete in respect of direct materials i. e 100% complete.

Hence, the equivalent units in terms of direct material cost is 100% multiplied by the number of units of direct materials added at the beginning of the manufacturing process.

Without mincing words, option B, 72,100 units of direct materials, is absolutely correct
