Answer:

$59,965

Explanation:

Equivalent Units

Materials = 8,950 x 100 % + 4,850 x 100 % = 13,800 units

Conversion Costs = 8,950 x 100 % + 4,850 x 50 % = 11,375 units

Total Costs

Materials = $37,260

Conversion Costs = $45,500

Cost per Equivalent unit

Materials = $37,260 / 13,800 units = $2.70

Conversion Costs = $45,500/ 11,375 units  = $4.00

Total Unit Cost = $2.70 + $4.00 = $6.70

Total costs transferred to Department B

Total costs = 8,950 x $6.70 = $59,965

Therefore, the total costs transferred to Department B is $59,965
