Question:

Louisiana Oil Refining Company processes gasoline. At June 1 of the current year, 4,500 units were 3/5 completed in the Blending Department. During June, 20,000 units entered the Blending Department from the Refining Department. During June, the units in process at the beginning of the month were completed. Of the 20,000 units entering the department, all were completed except 6,200 units that were 1/5 completed. The equivalent units for conversion costs for June for the Blending Department were computed as follows:
Equivalent units of production in June:
To process units in inventory on June 1:
4,500 × 3/5 ............ 2,700
To process units started and completed in June:
20,000 – 4,500 .......... 15,500
To process units in inventory on June 30:
6,200 × 1/5 ............ 1,240
Equivalent units of production 19,440
