A. $45,000
B. $45,400
C. $35,400
D. $39,600

Respuesta :

Answer: cost of units transferred out during the month=A. $45,000

Explanation:

Material costs =Number of units completed and transferred out x Cost per equivalent unit for material

= 9000 units x $2.00  = $18,000

Conversion cost = Number of units completed and transferred out x Cost per equivalent unit for conversion costs

= 9000 units x $3.00 = $27,000

   

Costs  of u nits transferred out during the month = Conversion costs +Material costs

= $18,000 + $27,000

$45,000
