Prepare the production departments equivalent units of production for direct materials under each of three separate assumptions using the weighted-average method for process costing.

Equivalent Units of Production (EUP)Weighted Average Method 1. All direct materials are added to products when processing begins. Units % Materials EUPMaterials Total 2. Beginning inventory is 40% complete as to materials and conversion costs. Ending inventory is 80% complete as to materials and conversion costs. Units % Materials EUPMaterials Total 3. Beginning inventory is 60% complete as to materials and 40% complete as to conversion costs. Ending inventory is 30% complete as to materials and 60% complete as to conversion costs. Units % Materials EUPMaterials Total
