Answer:

the equivalent units for direct material is 43,100 units

Explanation:

The computation of the equivalent units for direct material is shown below:

= Ending work in process units + units started and completed + opening work in process units

= 40% of 4,000 units + (44,000 - 4,000) + 30% of 5,000

= 1,600 units + 40,000 units + 1,500 units

= 43,100 units

hence, the equivalent units for direct material is 43,100 units
