    In the MixingDepartment during August $91,332 $81,864
    Equivalent units of production for August 7,740 7,580

    What are the cost per equivalent unit for materials and the cost per equivalent for conversion for the MixingDepartment for August using the FIFO method?

    I got the answer wrong. Can someone explain what I did wrong? What do I need to fix?
