Answer:

37,000 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for the number of units started during November in the department

Using this formula

Number of Units started = Units completed and transferred out + Units in ending work-in-process − Units in beginning work-in-process

Let plug in the formula

Number of Units started= 39,000 units+7,400 units − 9,400 units

Number of Units started= 37,000 units

Therefore number of units started during November in the department was 37,000 units
