Explanation / Answer

This is a bit tricky but I'm using this statement to calculate the cost per EU = "All direct materials are placed in process at the beginning of the process". This way I include the beg WIP cost of material. The EU calculation for the DM are: - % to complete of beg WIP - Started & completed in Apr - Ending WIP % of completion Total EU then find cost per EU
