Answer:

Calculate the cost per equivalent unit, for both direct material and conversion, during November. Use the weighted-average process costing.

Assume that  

Work In Process, Nov 1:

Direct Material.................$65,000

Conversion......................$180,000

Costs incurred during Nov:

Direct Material................$425,000

Conversion.....................$690,000

For Direct material  

Direct material = (425000 + 65000) / 8200

Direct material = $60 per unit

For Conversion  

Conversion = (690000 + 180000) / 2300  

Conversion  = $378 per unit
