Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:

Weighted Average Method :

Units                                        Physical                   Direct             Conversion

Completed & transferred       70,000                  70,000            70,000

Ending WIP                             30,000                   30,000            24,000

                                                                                                   ( 30,000 × 80%)  

Equivalent production Unit     100,000                100,000            94,000

So, Cost per equivalent unit under weighted average method can be calculated as:

                Direct material                    Conversion                Total cost

                    $1.825                                $3.45                          $5.275  

        (60,000 + 122,500)             (25000+299300)

     = (182,500 ÷ 100.000)         =(324300 ÷ 94,000)                      

FIFO Method

Units                                        Physical                 Direct             Conversion

Beginning WIP                         30,000                    0                        18,000

                                                                      (30,000 × 0%)        (30,000 × 60%)

Started & completed               40,000              40,000                   40,000

Ending WIP                               30,000              30,000                   24,000

                                                                                                        (30,000 × 80%)

Equivalent production Unit     100,000            70,000                 82,000

So, Cost per equivalent unit under FIFO method can be calculated as:

                Direct material                    Conversion                  Total cost

                    $1.75                                    $3.65                          $5.40

         (122,500 ÷ 70,000)             (299,300 ÷ 82,000)

idk the answer so dont listen too me

answer; the correct answer to the above statement is (true);
