Sagot :

Answer:

D. $28.50

Explanation:

Peach Equivalent-unit cost = Total Cost / Units

Peach Equivalent-unit cost = ($966000 + $231000) / (40000 units + (10000 units*20% completion))

Peach Equivalent-unit cost = $1197000 / (40000 units + 2000 units)

Peach Equivalent-unit cost = $1197000 / 42000 units

Peach Equivalent-unit cost = $28.50
