d. 40,000, 34,000

Explanation:

Equivalent unit of production is the quantity of work done in the manufacturing / production department. It also includes the completed percentage portion of the units in work in process.

Equivalent Units = Units complete and transferred + (Closing units x percentage completion)

In respect of Material

all the unit are completed in respect of material

Equivalent Units = 30,000 + 10,000

Equivalent Units = 40,000

all the unit are completed in respect of material

Equivalent Units = (30,000 + (10,000 x 40%)

Equivalent Units = 35,000 + 5,000

Equivalent Units = 34,000
