Answer:

180,000 Units

Explanation:

The equivalent units for can be calculated using the following formula:

Equivalent units for Conversion Cost = Completed + (Ending work in process * Materials %age)

Here

Completed units of shirts are 140,000

Ending work in process is 40,000 Units

The percentage of input is 100% as all the direct materials are added at the beginning of the production process.

So by putting values, we have:

Equivalent units for Conversion Cost = 140,000 Units + 40,000 * 100%

= 180,000 Units
