2,100

Step-by-step explanation:

Equivalent units of production

Units Completion % Units Equivalent

500 x 100% = 500

4,000 x 40% = 1,600

Total Equivalent units of production = 2,100

The 4,000 units yet not finished, must be valued according to its % of completion, multiplying "volume ( units quantity ) x completion %". Then, add the result to fully completed units.
