Answer:

a) Units to be accounted for

Completed and transferred out = 36,500 units

Closing inventory = 1600 units.

b) Total equivalent units     36,820

Explanation:

Under the weighted average method, the units completed and transferred out are not separated into  opening inventory and newly introduced.

The units to be assigned cost would be as follows:

Completed and transferred out = 36,500 units

Closing inventory = 1600 units.

Equivalent units is the notional whole units which represent incomplete work and her use to assign costs between work-in-progress and completed units.t

Equivalent units= Degree of completion × units

Units                                      units                                 Equivalent units

Completed                          36,500             36,500 × 100% =        36,500

Closing inventory                1,600                   1,600 × 20% =          320

Total equivalent units                                                                     36,820

a) Units to be accounted for

Completed and transferred out = 36,500 units

Closing inventory = 1600 units.

b) Total equivalent units     36,820
