Answer:
Equivalent Unit Cost = 9.942308718 = 9.94
Explanation:
Beg WIP 5,250 0.70 = 3675
Completed and transferred 56,960
Ending WIP 7,450 0.40 = 2,980
Equivalent 56,265 (Completed + Ending - Beginning)
Equivalent Unit Cost 559,404/56,265 = 9.942308718
We didn't include the beginning units in the calculation for the equivalent untis, so we don't assing their cost to the equivalent unit cost neither.
The beginning inventory will be carrying value + equivalent units of incomplete portion x equivalent units cost
