Answer (B) is correct . The FIFO equivalent units of materials equal 208,000. Accordingly, unit cost of materials under FIFO is $2.25 ($468,000 materials cost in May ¡Â 208,000 EU). Answer (A) is incorrect because Dividing May’s costs by the equivalent units calculated under the weighted-average method results in $2.06. Answer (C) is incorrect because The weighted-average cost per equivalent unit is $2.30. Answer (D) is incorrect because Total materials cost divided by FIFO equivalent units of materials equals $2.51.
