Answer:

14,355 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of equivalent units of production under the FIFO method is shown below:

= Beginning work in process × remaining percentage + units started and completed × completion percentage + ending work in process × completion percentage

= 2,500 units × 55% + 12,500 units × 100% + 1,200 units × 40%

= 1,375 units + 12,500 units + 480 units

= 14,355 units

The units started and completed is come from

= 15,000 units - 2,500 units

= 12,500 units
