Answer:

48,000 units ; 46,000 units ; 46,000 units

Explanation:

The computation of the equivalent units is shown below:

For Material

= Units transferred out × completion percentage + ending work in process units × completion percentage

= 42,000 × 100% + 8,000 × 75%

= 42,000 units + 6,000 units

= 48,000 units

For Labor

= Units transferred out × completion percentage + ending work in process units × completion percentage

= 42,000 × 100% + 8,000 × 50%

= 42,000 units + 4,000 units

= 46,000 units

For Overhead  

= Units transferred out × completion percentage + ending work in process units × completion percentage

= 42,000 × 100% + 8,000 × 50%

= 42,000 units + 4,000 units

= 46,000 units
