1) 55,000 units
2) 60,000 units
3) 75,000 units
4) 80,000 units

Answer 1

The total number of units produced by Faust Manufacturing during June is 4) 80,000 units, as this figure represents the number of units started and completed during the month.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student asked about the total number of units produced by Faust Manufacturing during June. The scenario provided states that Faust Manufacturing started and completed 80,000 units and there were 25,000 units in beginning work in process (BWIP). To calculate the total number of units produced, we add the units started and completed to the beginning work in process. However, this would result in counting the BWIP twice if we were to also count the started and completed units since they represent the continuation of BWIP. Therefore, the total units produced would simply be the number of units started and completed during the month, which is 80,000 units.
