Answer: c. $2.89 per unit

Explanation:

Using the First-In, First-Out method, we need to find the equivalent units first:

= Equivalent opening units + Units started and completed + Equivalent ending units

= (Opening units left to be completed) + (Units completed - opening units) + (proportion of closing units completed with respect to conversion)

= (3,000 * (1 - 40%)) + (12,000 - 3,000) + (1,000 * 40%)

= 11,200 units

Conversion costs = 32,363

Conversion cost per units:

= 32,363 / 11,200 units

= $2.89 per unit
