a. Production Started            211 million barrels
Completed            176 million barrels
Ending Work in process               35 million barrels
b. Equivalent Units of Production =            176 Million + 35 Million * 60% =            197
c. Cost per equivalent units:
Materials $    2,827 Million
Conversion Costs $    3,280 Million
Total Costs $    6,107 Million
÷ Equivalent units            197 Million
Cost per equivalent unit $    31.00
Equivalent Units Cost per unit Total Cost  
d. Costs of units completed =            176 $    31.00 $    5,456
Costs of Ending work in process =               21 $    31.00 $        651
Thus,
Cost of oil shipped in the pipeline   $    5,456 million
Amount in work-in-process ending inventory as of May 31 $        651 million
