150,000 units @ $5 = 750,000
225,000 + x +125,000 =750,000
x = 750,000 - 350,000 = 400,000
400,000/150,000 = $2.33.

Please see the guidelines for posting homework problems:
https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/financ...es-468524.html
And for this one, you really are going to have to show attempt at working the problem or ask some specific questions, because process costing problems are long and nearly impossible to just try to explain in a post.

While I fully agree with Morgaine300, I have prepared a skeleton table for you. All you have to do is put in the figures. I am sure your text book must have some information for calculating EPU.
