Answer: 57,550 units

Step-by-step explanation:

When using the weighted average method, the units completed and transferred out are assumed to include the opening inventory.

The weighted average equivalent units are therefore:

= Units completed and transferred out + Equivalent ending units

= 57,000 + (10% * 5,500)

= 57,000 + 550

= 57,550 units
