Answer:
e. 225,000 materials; 195,000 conversion.
Explanation:
direct materials
beginning WIP inventory = 0%*50000
                     = 0
started and completed = 150000*100%
                    = 150000
ending WIP inventory = 75000*100%
                  = 75000
equivalent units = 0 + 150000 + 75000
              = 225000
conversion
beginning WIP inventory = 50000*60%
                     = 30000
started and completed = 150000*100%
                    = 150000
ending WIP inventory = 75000*20%
                  = 15000
equivalent units = 30000 + 150000 + 15000
              = 195000
Therefore, The equivalent units for direct materials and conversion respectively for May is $225,000 and $195,000 respectively.
